"Second brother, what do you think Old Geezer Chen is? Also, what is the background of that young man called Li Dao? Could it be that he's really an illegitimate child?" Another man asked.

The three people in the secret room were none other than Boss Bai, the one who controlled the storm on the beach.

Back then, before the Axe Gang split up, the three of them were sworn brothers with me and Iron Blade. Later on, the gang split up, the Iron Blade, Jin Jiabao, retreated from the Jianghu, Chen also because I can not bear to see them in their ways and parted ways with them.

One of them was the second oldest, who was currently in his early sixties. He had been smoking cigarettes all year round, making him look like an old man in his eighties or nineties.

"Old Geezer Chen has played a good move. I just don't know if that young man called Li Dao will be able to win. If he can't beat Long Qi, then Old Geezer Chen will be at a huge disadvantage."

"Second Brother, are you saying that Old Geezer Chen wants that kid and Long Qi to be both defeated and injured?"

"That's what he was thinking. Otherwise, how could Old Man Chen be so stingy as to give two streets worth of properties to someone else?" The old man put down his pipe, as if he had seen through the world.

"Then should we do something?"

"No need, we don't need to do anything. Let them do their best to survive. When they can no longer do anything, we can go harvest more."

"Second brother is indeed second brother, you have seen through everything!"

"Hahahaha..."

A carefree laugh echoed in the cold secret room.

No one knew what these elders were thinking, how other people were going to live their lives and how they were going to live their lives.

Li Dao still lived in the old courtyard. He didn't have high material requirements.

The sun was high in the sky, and Li Dao's upper body was bare. The long sword in his hand seemed to have come alive. Now he was no longer limited to swinging his sword every day.

When he came out from the third heaven that night, he had obtained a sword manual from me. Now, he was practicing his sword moves.

In this world, there was no internal energy, nor was there any distinction between bright and dark forces. The difference between martial arts skills only depended on whether one could fight them or not. Of course, famous martial arts like Taiji Fist, Eagle Claw Skill, Iron Palm Art and Monkey Fist still existed. However, the martial arts of this world were just moves and the key to exerting strength.

How good a person's martial arts was depended on their physique, strength and speed, whether their moves were exquisite or not, and whether they were experienced in fighting.

The sword manual that Li Dao obtained from me does not have a name. There are only some simple sword techniques, but that is enough. Sooner or later, he would come into contact with high-level strength.

Because there was no inner strength, and there was no such thing as inner strength, Li Dao only had the choice of swordplay. What's more, the sword in his hand was the one that helped him settle down. What could he do if he didn't train with the sword?

Furthermore, Li Dao felt that he had the talent to practice the sword. He could easily learn a few sword moves just by looking at them once.

Li Dao didn't care about the sword moves in the sword manual. What he cared about were the basic things in it, including footwork, wristwatch techniques, as well as the most important sword technique, Elegant Flower.

Among them, footwork is divided into step, horse step, rest step, footstep, cross step, hollow step, sitting plate and so on. Movement techniques were divided into turn, flip over, and ambush. The wrist technique was a technique for exerting force from the wrist. The techniques for slashing, slashing, stabbing, slashing, and slashing were all driven by the force from the wrist.

The sword technique was also known as the Sword Finger, and it had three uses. First, it strengthened the power of thrusting and striking, second, it protected the head, chest, abdomen and arms, and so on.

There was also eye technique, Elegant Flower, these were all basic qualities a swordsman had to possess. After practicing the basics of these sword techniques, Li Dao felt that his battle prowess had increased by many times. Since there was no clear division of realms, he really wanted to find someone to test the extent of his strength.
