Manor Lord Huo Butian, dressed in a brocade robe and with a yellow ribbon tied in his hair, sat regally in the main seat, exuding an air of extraordinary arrogance.
Beside him, a ten-year-old boy with puffy eyes held a lollipop, licking it repeatedly.
"Congratulations, Master Huo! May your fortune be as boundless as the Eastern Sea and your longevity as enduring as the Southern Mountains!"
"Master Huo's swordsmanship is astonishing, his fame resounds throughout the martial world!"
"......"</p>
Inside the hall, numerous martial arts heroes continuously offered their congratulations to Huo Butian, who sat in the main seat.
"I, Huo Butian, am unworthy to have all of you fellow practitioners and friends come to celebrate my birthday. I, Huo Butian, am deeply grateful!" Huo Butian bowed respectfully to everyone present, and said solemnly, "Since you are all here, I will take this opportunity to announce something today."
Huo Butian said slowly, "The Huo family sword technique will be inherited by my stepson, Jingyun!"
"Master, why don't you pass it on to your own son?" At this moment, a burly, middle-aged man with a sword on his back asked Huo Butian.
"Haha..."
Huo Butian smiled, looking at his biological son Wujue who was eating a lollipop beside him, and said, "My son is dull-witted; Jingyun is much more suited to the Huo family's swordsmanship."
"Hmm? Where's Jingyun?"
Huo Butian looked around and said to the servant beside him, "Aunt Fu, go find Jingyun!"
The woman named Sister Fu quickly ran out.
At that very moment, suddenly, two uninvited guests wielding weapons burst into the hall!
One of them held a knife, while the other wielded an alien weapon.
"Huo Butian, how dare you! The World Society offered you a place to surrender, but you refused, and now you dare to hold a private gathering to celebrate your own birthday!" The two men, looking fierce and brandishing weapons, approached Huo Butian.
"Blood-Drinking Skull Snow Dark Sky! How could you also aid and abet evil!?"
Huo Butian was taken aback, staring at the two who had barged in.
Xue Antian was also a renowned expert in the martial arts world, and the two had crossed paths before.
Unexpectedly, they actually sided with Xiong Ba!
"Huo Butian, enough nonsense! Since you refuse to submit to Chief Xiong, then prepare to die!"
Xue Antian roared and charged at Huo Butian with his sword!
Clang!
Ding ding!
In an instant, the hall was filled with the glint of swords and the clash of blades. The two men were no less skilled than Huo Butian. Xue Antian engaged Huo Butian, while the other instantly killed many martial arts heroes.
Huo Butian truly lived up to his reputation as a master who had cultivated the Huo family swordsmanship to an extremely high level; Xue Antian was no match for him!
Fang Chen walked slowly towards them from a short distance away.
I looked at the boy sitting under the veranda, holding a Buddha statue in his hand, carving it incessantly with a small carving knife.
"This is Bu Jingyun!"
Fang Chen's heart suddenly stirred. He remembered that in the TV series "Wind and Cloud," Bu Jingyun became Huo Butian's stepson and wanted to present his father with a Buddha statue he had made himself to celebrate his birthday!
"Your name is Bu Jingyun, right?"
To confirm, Fang Chen approached the child and slowly spoke.
"Who are you? Are you also a villain from the World Society?"
Bu Jingyun looked up, a look of surprise in his eyes.
"The World Alliance! It really is Bu Jingyun!" Fang Chen was overjoyed.
In the world of Fengyun, there are four divine beasts: the dragon, the phoenix, the white tiger, and the black tortoise!
Moreover, consuming the essence of each mythical beast can grant immortality!
The story includes characters like Di Shitian, the incarnation of Xu Fu, and Xiao Sanxiao, who has lived for over four thousand years with the blood of a dragon turtle. Since these people can obtain phoenix blood and dragon turtle blood and live for thousands of years, does that mean I can also slay the divine dragon?
Consuming the Dragon Essence grants one an immortal and indestructible body?
Thinking of this, Fang Chen was filled with excitement.
However, the world of Fengyun is a high-level martial arts world, and the dragons within it are incredibly powerful, far beyond what Fang Chen can currently provoke. To slay the dragon, he must first increase his strength and find allies.
In this world, Feng Yun is the protagonist; with their help, things would be twice as easy!
Having considered this, Fang Chen had already made up his mind.
He immediately nodded and said to Bu Jingyun, "I'm not from the World Society; I was just passing by."
"Father!"
Just then, a scream rang out in the distance, and Fang Chen and Bu Jingyun looked up.
However, another assassin killed Sister Fu, captured Huo Wujue, and killed him with a single blow. Huo Butian turned around in shock, only to be stabbed in the left shoulder by Xue Antian, who was wielding a knife.
"Father!"
Bu Jingyun was greatly startled; the Buddha statue fell to the ground, and he ran towards Huo Butian!
