Chapter 233: 【128】The Third-party Great Enemy, Wang Longhu's Full-force Outbreak_3
I didn't expect that early in the morning, the Fifth Lord, again showing his undying prowess, continued the battle. The benefits of being a Martial Artist skilled in Dark Force were perfectly demonstrated at this moment.
Half an hour later, hearing the sounds of battle outside subside, Wang Longhu finally pushed open the door and went out.
At a glance, he saw the Fifth Lord pressing a person to the carpet. Except for the Fifth Lord's silver hair, symbolizing his age, his physique was as robust as that of a man in his thirties.
Wang Longhu fetched a bottle of water, sat down and drank it, asking, "Fifth Lord, still strong and vigorous, aren't you?"
"Don't joke with me. I'm more impressed with you. So many long-legged beauties last night, and you didn't take even one with you. You're a tough one." The Fifth Lord picked up a blanket to wrap around his waist, stretching comfortably.
He spent millions to hire Wang Longhu to help him take revenge, leaving the task to Wang Longhu. He just needed to eat, drink, and play around Zhiming City, providing cover for Wang Longhu.
"Boss, do you have any plans for today? Can you take me shopping?" The woman on the ground unabashedly clung to the Fifth Lord's leg, said coquettishly.
This woman was one of the many beauties Sang Li brought over last night, the only one who could speak Mandarin, so her relationship with the Fifth Lord was also better.
After the fun, she would actively ask the Fifth Lord to take her shopping, proving she knew how to manipulate a sugar daddy.
"Too tired today. Tomorrow, I'll take you to buy a bag, an LV one." The Fifth Lord laughed, pinching the woman's cheek, then sent all the women he brought back last night away.
Soon, only Wang Longhu and the Fifth Lord remained in the suite.
"Two left. I'll try to handle them within a week." Wang Longhu took out his phone, playing with it as he spoke casually.
"Tan Yuejin, that scoundrel, is finally dead." Hearing this, the Fifth Lord slumped on the sofa, letting out a deep sigh of relief.
Avenging his master had been his greatest obsession for decades. To fulfill this obsession, the Fifth Lord even refrained from marrying and having children, focusing solely on his hatred for the four fellow disciples.
"Fifth Lord, Tan Yuejin has achieved Huajin." Wang Longhu glanced at him and said.
The Fifth Lord was momentarily stunned, incredulity written all over his face: "Impossible. How could that guy achieve Huajin? Among Qiao Qichong, Ma Bomeng, and Tan Yuejin, I wouldn't be surprised if the other two reached Huajin, but he's indulged in wine and women for so long, his vital energy has long been drained. Are you sure?"
"Yes, I felt a force of counter-reaction surrounding him, indicating Inner Strength, something only a Huajin Grandmaster can achieve." Wang Longhu nodded with certainty.
The Fifth Lord's expression turned serious. He had expected only one of his fellow disciples might become a Huajin Grandmaster, yet now even Tan Yuejin had reached that stage.
This realization only highlighted his own inadequacy as the senior disciple, having practiced the Five Poison Sect's exclusive Inner Power, he remained at Dark Force level.
He felt grateful for hiring Wang Longhu to aid in revenge. Without Wang Longhu, the Fifth Lord alone wouldn't stand a chance against those scoundrels.
"Fifth Lord, with today's advanced technology, perhaps there are some overseas drugs capable of rejuvenating vital energy. Don't worry too much; ordinary Huajin Grandmasters are no match for me." Wang Longhu consoled him.
"There's merit in what you say." The Fifth Lord nodded thoughtfully.
The research on human body drugs by overseas Martial Artists' forces receives immense funding, with billions invested annually.
Every Martial Artist knows the importance of their physique; using drugs to aid training could open paths for those without natural talent.
Moreover, the study of the human body is a universal interest, with wealthy merchants worldwide secretly monitoring research that could support health and longevity, which overseas Martial Artists' projects also intrigue those merchants.
Therefore, many Martial Artists' research projects never lack investment, though domestic Martial Artists are less aware of such matters.
Ring ring.
At that moment, the Fifth Lord's phone suddenly rang. He picked it up, and his expression turned peculiar.
Wang Longhu looked at him, while the Fifth Lord suspiciously replied, "It's Mr. Zheng."
The Fifth Lord only referred to one person as Mr. Zheng, and that was Zheng Song, the chairman of Zhong Jun Hall.
Since leaving the factory in Min Province, Wang Longhu hadn't encountered this person again.
"Hello, Mr. Zheng." The Fifth Lord answered the call.
"Fifth Lord, did you go abroad with Wang Longhu?" Zheng Song's anxious voice immediately sounded from the other end.
Though Wang Longhu had only met Zheng Song a few times, his impression was that Zheng Song was always gentle and calm, seemingly unaffected by anything.
"Yes." The Fifth Lord replied.
"Didn't I tell you, when you came back from Hong Kong, not to go abroad for a few months? Now there's trouble." Zheng Song sighed on the phone, solemnly advising, "Get back as soon as you can. My people in Hong Kong passed on a message, the Lu family is making big moves, not targeting the mainland but overseas."
Wang Longhu and the Fifth Lord exchanged glances, both somewhat surprised.
After so long, they had almost forgotten the matter with Lu Pingshan. Who would have thought, after Wang Longhu's trip to Wudang, the Lu family was still watching them closely.
"Overseas, could be Vietnam, aiming for us." The Fifth Lord said.
