"Young Master Tang, we have been rude and offensive today. I apologize to you here. From now on, I, Lei Li, will follow Young Master Tang's lead!"
Lei Li was the first to react. Without hesitation, he knelt on one knee to show his determination.
With Lei Li's decisive start, many masters from various sects in the martial arts world could not withstand the psychological pressure and expressed their willingness to submit to "Tang Lian" and the Tang Clan. Almost the entire martial arts world now took the Tang Clan as its leader.
"It's not impossible for me to cure your poison and submit to me, as long as you agree to one condition."
Although Zhang Yun did not kill Huo Qing, Zhang Yun did indeed have the absolute strength to easily kill Huo Qing. Since these guys have misunderstood, it's better to go with the flow and take these servants in, while also giving them some simple cultivation techniques and martial arts, so that their cultivation can be further improved.
Thus, apart from the unyielding Master Kumei, all the sect leaders and elders in the face of life and death accepted Zhang Yun's conditions and successfully signed the contract.
Master Kumei's fortitude earned Zhang Yun's respect, so he cured her of the poison and allowed her to leave with her disciples.
As for Lei Li...
“Xinrui, Lei Li is, after all, your adoptive father. You should decide how to deal with him.”
From this incident, Zhang Yun could see that Lei Xinrui was indeed a good woman, and would be an even better wife in the future. Tang Lian missed out on such a talented, beautiful, and virtuous woman; perhaps he was just unlucky.
"No matter how much he wronged me, he raised me for seventeen years after all."
Lei Xinrui sighed softly and said, "Tang Lian, please cure him of the poison and let him leave."
Zhang Yun naturally respected Lei Xinrui and cured Lei Li of the poison, since Lei Li posed no threat to him anyway.
“Father, this is the last time I will call you Father. From now on, we owe each other nothing and have no relationship whatsoever.”
Listening to Lei Xinrui's words, Lei Li's feelings were mixed. He wanted to say something but stopped himself. In the end, he didn't say anything, sighed, and slowly left. In the blink of an eye, he seemed to have aged more than ten years.
Lei Xinrui also tried hard to hold back the crystal tears that were about to spill from her eyes. She turned her head away, unable to bear looking at Lei Li's back, for fear that she would change her mind.
"elder sister……"
Lei Wuting was still reluctant to leave, staring blankly at the sister he had called for more than ten years, feeling very uncomfortable.
"Wu Ting, no matter what, you are still my brother. Come home with Dad."
When facing Lei Wuting, a smile appeared on Lei Xinrui's lips, which made Lei Wuting smile knowingly.
"Sister, I'll be going now. Please take good care of yourself in the Tang Sect!"
After giving Zhang Yun and Lei Xinrui a deep look, Lei Wuting turned his head and jogged to catch up with Lei Li.
"Father, let me help you."
"Xinrui, your younger brother is a pretty good person."
Watching Lei Li and his son leave in a desolate manner, Zhang Yun smiled leisurely and said, "I think it's because you, as the older sister, taught them well."
"You're so glib." Lei Xinrui was immediately amused by Zhang Yun, and her pretty face beamed with happiness.
She knew she had married the right person...

Chapter 115 One Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons (3rd Update)
The back mountain of Tangjiabao truly lives up to its reputation as the highest-level forbidden area of the Tang Clan. It is filled with domineering and ruthless traps, with hidden mysteries within mysteries, making every step fraught with danger.
If one were to lack even the slightest understanding of its internal structure, even Zhang Yun, who was at the late stage of the Chakra Realm, would likely find it difficult to stand alive in this secret chamber.
The room was spotless, with neatly stacked bookshelves against the wall. The atmosphere was simple, clean, ethereal, and serene, suggesting that the mysterious old man guarding the forbidden area took great care in cleaning it every day.
The bookshelves were filled with the Tang Clan's top secrets. Apart from a handful of people, even the direct descendants of the Tang Clan would probably never have access to such secrets in their entire lives. The secrecy was truly exceptional.
If Zhang Yun's disguise skills were not up to par, to the point of being indistinguishable from the real thing, it would be virtually impossible for him to enter this place using ordinary methods.
"No wonder that in the 21st century, almost all the martial arts techniques of various sects in the martial arts world have been lost. Today I finally get to see them."
Zhang Yun couldn't help but sigh. Putting aside everything else, if an earthquake or a fire were to strike this secret room, wouldn't everything be destroyed?
But Zhang Yun clearly didn't care much about these things. What really interested him was the Tang Clan's Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons.
The Complete Guide to Hidden Weapons records almost all the hidden weapons with life-threatening properties in the Tang Clan.
These include the three most powerful hidden weapons of the Tang Clan: Buddha's Wrath Tang Lotus, Rain of Pear Blossom Needles, and Peacock Feather.
The Ten Peak Techniques: Guanyin's Tears, Bodhi's Blood, Soul-Chasing and Life-Taking Yama's Decree, One Thousand and One Nights, Mother and Child Soul-Chasing Gallbladder, Red Flower Scattering Cloud Needle, Shadowless Dart, Dragon Beard Needle, Nine Phoenixes Soaring and Crying, Bat Wing Reincarnation.
Other common Tang Clan hidden weapons include the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, the Tight-Backed Flower-Patterned Crossbow, the Sand-Spraying Shadow, and the Silent Sleeve Arrow.
Of course, there are also simpler techniques: the flicking arrow, the rain of flowers, the shooting star chasing the moon, and so on.
The Tang Clan's hidden weapons are equipped from head to toe. If fully prepared, they can be armed to the teeth. Even someone with weak internal strength can transform into a fearsome martial arts master.
Unfortunately, if the Tang Sect had not produced a genius like Tang San in the past hundred years, the pinnacle of hidden weapon techniques might have been lost forever.
Of course, with Zhang Yun's talent and terrifying learning ability, as long as he reads the manufacturing method once and gathers the materials, creating a top-tier hidden weapon like the Buddha's Wrath Lotus would be a piece of cake.
This is also one of Zhang Yun's biggest goals for this trip: to promote Tang Clan craftsmanship to the Yuntian Continent and let the strong people of the Yuntian Continent experience the taste of Tang Clan hidden weapons.
When Zhang Yun walked out of the back mountain of Tang Clan, it was already close to dusk.
Gazing at the crimson clouds filling the sky, a satisfied smile slowly spread across Zhang Yun's lips.
He carried one of every type of hidden weapon he could name in his storage ring, partly as samples and partly as a surprise killing move in a critical moment.
As for the production method, it remained with the Tang Sect. With Zhang Yun's amazing memory that allowed him to remember everything he saw, he had already memorized it.
