Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 207: Chapter 207 Flawed Martial Technique

Qin Wankong’s lips trembled with rage as he watched Su Yang walk away, unable to help himself from running to Nan Wudi’s side, ”Patriarch Nan, who exactly is this man? Why do you protect him so much? Don’t forget, we Ten Great Families are an alliance. By helping an outsider to bully our own, what kind of behavior is that?”

Nan Wudi glanced at Qin Wankong and sighed, ”Wankong, you are also considered one of my younger generation. I advise you, this man is best left unprovoked.”

”Why!” Qin Wankong pressed urgently, ”What’s so great about him? This is Pingnan Province, can’t our Ten Great Families handle just one person?”

”Go back and tell old Qin, if he’s unsure what to do, he can come find me at the Nantian Martial Arts School.” Nan Wudi waved his hand dismissively and led his people away.

”What do you mean by unsure? Is there any doubt about this matter?” Qin Wankong followed behind discontentedly, ”He destroyed our Jiu Long Garden; we must kill him for sure. Patriarch Nan, what exactly do you mean by this?”

Without looking back, Nan Wudi led his people straight away. Qin Wankong stomped his feet in frustration but was completely helpless.

Chen Fei and Zhou Yinghao had not yet arrived at Jiu Long Garden, so Su Yang had Tao Dingyi call them to rearrange the dinner. However, Su Yang would no longer be attending this meal.

After this ordeal, Tao Dingyi realized that Su Yang’s prowess was beyond his imagination.

The Family Head of the Nan Family, Nan Wudi, had personally come to assist him, and with just a wave of his hand, he had dismantled the Jiu Long Garden. Such an event, if it hadn’t happened before their eyes, who would believe it!

Therefore, Tao Dingyi did not dare to complain about Su Yang’s assertiveness. On the contrary, in his view, this was the true disposition a high-ranking individual should possess.

As for contacting Chen Fei and Zhou Yinghao, that was a given. Knowing the gap between himself and Su Yang, Tao Dingyi could only try to close the distance through Yinghao.

Su Yang first drove Wang Shuya home, and she was still in a state of shock even as the car reached their residential complex.

”Su Yang, how... how could this happen?” Wang Shuya’s voice trembled, ”We were just going to have a meal, how... how could so many things happen?”

”I don’t even... I don’t even know them, why did they want to take me to their room directly!”

Su Yang spoke softly, ”This is what they call the upper class, filthy and depraved.”

”Is the upper class like this?” Wang Shuya shivered, ”Too frightening!”

”You focus on your studies, I’ll take care of this!” Su Yang got out of the car, ”Contact me if there’s any problem!”

”Su Yang...” Wang Shuya looked at Su Yang, opened her mouth but ultimately only managed to whisper, ”Be careful!”

”I will!” Su Yang smiled faintly, waved to Wang Shuya, and turned to leave.

Standing behind him, Wang Shuya stared blankly at Su Yang’s retreating figure, unable to snap out of her daze for a long time.

...

At the Nantian Martial Arts School, Nan Wudi also brought his family members back in a hurry.

As soon as he entered the hall, Nan Shangshu came over quickly and spoke in a low voice, ”Grandfather, that’s the Qin Family. If we handle it this way, it’s very likely we’ll fall out with them. Is it worth it for a Su Yang?”

”Yes!” Another member of the Nan Family spoke quietly, ”Su Yang’s strength is indeed very strong, but no matter how strong he is, he’s still just one person. The Ten Great Families are bound by a common cause, should we fear him?”

”Grandfather, let’s not get involved in this. We have so much business with the Qin Family, if things really escalate, I’m afraid all that business will be gone!”

”Yes, Uncle, we mustn’t interfere in this matter...”

Nan Wudi slammed down the teacup in his hand with fury, ”Silence, all of you!”

Everyone immediately fell silent, although their faces showed reluctance.

Nan Wudi let out a long breath, stood up slowly, and said coldly, ”Shangshu, come here!”

”Yes, Grandfather!” Nan Shangshu immediately walked up to Nan Wudi.

Nan Wudi extended a hand and pressed it against Nan Shangshu’s chest, speaking softly, ”Cultivate!”

Nan Shangshu began to cultivate immediately, but when his power flowed to his chest, he suddenly felt a piercing pain. It was as if something had pierced through his chest, causing such agony that Nan Shangshu’s vision darkened, nearly passing out.

Staggering back a step, Nan Shangshu looked bewildered, ”Grandfather, what... what are you doing?”

”It’s not what I’m doing!” Nan Wudi sighed deeply and said, ”You all know the power of our Nan Family’s ancestral martial arts, don’t you?”

Everyone nodded, and Nan Shangshu proudly said, ”Grandfather, our Nan Family’s ancestral martial arts are even stronger than those of the other families!”

”True, our Nan Family’s ancestral martial arts are indeed a bit stronger than the family martial arts of the other four families,” Nan Wudi sighed and continued, ”But do you know why our Nan Family has never been able to claim the first position among these five great families?”

The people looked at each other, puzzled by this question that had also troubled them.

With a strong and prosperous family lineage and powerful martial arts, by all accounts, the Nan Family should have been able to claim the top spot among the five great martial families.

Yet, for over a hundred years, the Nan Family had consistently been at the bottom of the ranking among the five great martial arts families, completely suppressed by the others. If not for Nan Wudi’s third-place status in Pingnan Province, perhaps the Nan Family wouldn’t even be able to enter the Ten Great Families!

”Our young people in the Nan Family have always been the strongest among their peers!” Nan Wudi said gravely, ”The young generation of the other four great families can’t compare to ours.”

Everyone nodded proudly; this had always been the case in the Nan Family.

”It can be said that before the age of thirty, no one can catch up with the individuals of the Nan Family,” Nan Wudi sighed deeply, ”But after thirty, the individuals of the Nan Family begin to decline, overtaken by the people of the other four families, and then far surpassed. This situation has persisted for over a hundred years and has never changed!”

”Grandfather, why... Why is this?” Nan Shangshu asked anxiously, and all the other Nan Family members were equally astonished. This question had baffled all members of the Nan Family.

”The problem lies in our family’s martial arts technique!” Nan Wudi took a deep breath and declared solemnly, ”The Nantian Martial Arts Technique can indeed rapidly enhance one’s strength. However, this speed comes at the cost of damaging one’s meridians.”

”You may not feel it now, but your meridians have already begun to weaken from the Nantian Martial Arts Technique. Once you reach the age of thirty, your meridians will slow down your cultivation speed, allowing others to catch up and even greatly surpass you!”
