China had martial arts.

There was orthodoxy to martial arts.

As the president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association, Xu Taiping naturally had the obligation to maintain the orthodox status of the Chinese Martial Arts Association. Anyone who challenged the orthodox status of the Chinese Martial Arts Association, or their family, was challenging Xu Taiping.

Other than Xu Taiping who took first place, all 2345 of the Xiang Family were members of the Xiang Family. Xu Taiping had once given this family a chance to fight against Xiang Gang, once with Xiang Gang, once with Xiang Chun Qiu. Afterwards, before leaving Hua Xia, he had asked Wei Taidao to persuade the Xiang Family to try to rope them into joining the Hua Xia Martial Arts Association, but they were all rejected by the Hua Xia Martial Arts Association.

If the Xiang Family simply wanted to be a family that didn't join any organization, then Xu Taiping wouldn't do anything to them. But right now, not only did the Xiang Family have to be independent from the Chinese Martial Arts Association, they even had signs of forming their own power.

Pass down my orders, my Hua Xia Martial Arts Association will eliminate any family or individual who comes into contact with the Xiang Family. Furthermore, you are not allowed to enter the association ever again, and the Xiang Family is not allowed to participate in any martial arts activities. Xu Taiping said to Zhou Weidao as they walked.

"Yes sir!" Zhou Weidao nodded.

"In addition, inform the entire martial arts community by means of an unofficial announcement. I'm talking about anyone, not just the members of our Huaxia Martial Arts Association. Tell them, whoever contacts the Xiang Family will become my enemy and bear the consequences!" Xu Taiping said.

"Isn't this a little too overbearing? President, we can manage our association's people. Could it be that we have to control the people outside of our association?" Zhou Weidao asked hesitantly.

"Don't forget, we are Chinese martial artists!" Although there are some people that haven't joined the Chinese Martial Arts Association, since he is in the Chinese Martial Arts Association, he has to listen to my commands. "If you think I'm overbearing, then so be it. Come find me if you're unconvinced." Xu Taiping said coldly.

"Yes sir!" Zhou Weidao nodded.

The two chatted as they walked into Xu Taiping's office.

Xu Taiping sat on his sofa and asked, "How's the situation with the Pope?"

All the checkpoints have been cleared, and the Pope will be visiting our Chinese Martial Arts Association headquarters the day after tomorrow. The visit will last for a day, and the Pope will be going to Beijing the next day. I heard from someone that the Pope is not here for us, and his main goal is to bring their newly chosen Holy Maiden back to the Holy See. Zhou Weidao said.

"The newly chosen Holy Maiden? Is it in China?! " Xu Taiping asked in surprise.

"Yes, I heard that the new Holy Maiden is from China. She's from Beijing, but she seems to be from a big family in Beijing. I'm not too sure about the details." Zhou Weidao said.

"The Holy Maiden is actually looking for Chinese people. It seems that the Holy See is planning to increase the speed at which they can develop their followers in China!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.

The Holy See was the largest religion in the world, and had many followers. Almost every country's largest religion was owned by the Holy See, but there were many exceptions, such as the Buddhist Taoist religion, and in recent years, China had increased its support for local religions, so, in China, the Holy See's power was very weak, far inferior to Buddhism and Taoism. Of course, it was not completely powerless, but it was just a lot smaller compared to other countries.

"This seems to be the first time in thousands of years that a Chinese has become a Holy Maiden in the Holy See?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Mm, yes, the first one in the past few thousand years, so this time it's going to be very grand … "It seems like he only came here for a short while." Zhou Weidao said.

"Even though you say that, but you still have to be polite and not underestimate others. We are martial artists, so we have to have the proper demeanor of martial artists." Xu Taiping said.

"Hmm, the authorities have specially arranged for people to come down here. There are people responsible for etiquette here!" Zhou Weidao said.

"That's good!" Xu Taiping nodded, and then said, "However, the Holy Maiden was unlucky. It was said that the Holy Maiden would stay in the Pontiff's Palace all her life, and would never be able to get married or have children."

"There seems to be such a saying, and the Holy Maiden also asks that it must be a young virgin … "Sigh, although the Holy Maiden's status is second only to the Holy Emperor and the Holy Son, such an action would defy human nature. Although the Holy Maiden's status is second only to the Holy Emperor and the Holy Son, such an action would defy human nature. Zhou Weidao said.

"Maybe." Xu Taiping nodded.

"President, your hand …" "What's wrong? I noticed that your right hand doesn't seem to be very good." Zhou Weidao pointed at Xu Taiping's hand and asked.

"A little hurt." Xu Taiping smiled and raised his right hand.

He wore a glove on his right hand.

Wearing a pair of gloves in the middle of summer made his hands seem a bit stiff.

"Injured? Isn't your recovery rate very strong? " Zhou Weidao asked in surprise.

"The injury this time is a little different." Xu Taiping shook his head. The injury this time was indeed different from the last time. It had already been several hours since he had gotten injured, but … His right hand still had not recovered.

The unending pain tormented Xu Taiping at all times. It was fortunate that Xu Taiping was very patient towards all of them. Otherwise, just the constant pain alone would be enough to drive him insane.

Xu Taiping could feel that his hand was recovering, but when it was recovered, it was immediately destroyed by that strange power, so his right hand still hadn't recovered yet.

Of course, it would be wrong to say that he didn't recover. His right hand was slowly recovering, just like a normal person's recovery speed.

"Then you should pay more attention. After all, you are the pillar of the entire Chinese Martial Arts Association." Zhou Weidao said.

"I'm fine." Xu Taiping shook his head.

At that moment, Xu Taiping's phone suddenly rang.

Xu Taiping picked up his phone and took a look. It was Jiufang Nian Lan.

Xu Taiping picked up the phone.

"I heard you returned home?" Jiufang Nian Lan asked.

"You sure are well-informed!" Xu Taiping laughed.

"I've been waiting for you at the Lower Sea City." Jiufang Nian Lan said.

"What are you waiting for me for?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.

"There's something I need to understand with you. I'll be going over to look for you now." Jiufang Nian Lan said.

"Then come here." Xu Taiping said.

"Alright!"

Hanging up the phone, Xu Taiping looked towards Zhou Weidao, "The Xiang Family's matters should be handled quickly. If they have any complaints, tell them to come find me. If they make a move against the people from our association, then bring some people to deal with them."

"Guild Leader, we can't beat them. Any one of them could easily kill a few hundred." Zhou Weidao said awkwardly.

"It's good that you can't do it. If you can't, then call the police, understand? This is an era of the rule of law, so how can we just casually fight and kill them? To deal with these kind of people who can't do it, we have to use the weapon of the law, do you understand? " Xu Taiping said.

"Understood, Guild Leader!" These days, he was actually able to find the police even if he couldn't beat them. This was also extremely shameless, but it seemed that only in this way would he be able to deal with those people from the Xiang Family.

"Remember, as long as you can destroy your opponent, no matter what means, they are all good methods! Alright, you can go now! " Xu Taiping waved his hand.

"Yes sir!"

Zhou Weidao nodded, then turned and left.

Just as Zhou Weidao left, Jiufang Nian Lan walked into Xu Taiping's office.

"What happened to your right hand?" As soon as Jiufang Nian Lan entered the door, he saw Xu Taiping's gloved right hand and asked with a frown.

"A little hurt. "It's no big deal." Xu Taiping said.

"Let me see." Jiufang Nian Lan walked over to Xu Taiping and extended his hand.

Xu Taiping smiled and placed his hand on top of Jiufang Nian Lan's.

Jiufang Nian Lan gently took off the gloves on Xu Taiping's hand, then he frowned.

At this moment, Xu Taiping's entire right hand was deformed, because the bones were broken, and his entire right hand was an azure and violet color, giving him a horrifying appearance.

"Who hurt you?" Jiufang Nian Lan asked.

"Zhao Qingshan." Xu Taiping said.

Jiufang Nian Lan stared blankly for a moment, then asked, "You met with him?"

"En!" Xu Taiping nodded, "Don't do something stupid, you can't beat him."

"How do you know what I'm going to do?" Jiufang Nian Lan asked.

"I feel your killing intent." Xu Taiping raised his other hand, grabbed Jiufang Nian Lan's hand and said, "Are you looking for an opportunity to kill Zhao Qingshan?"

"I'm not that stupid. He's a Divine level expert." Jiufang Nian Lan said.

"It's good that you know this. He is much stronger than I am. In addition, I am a man. I will take revenge on my own. You, a woman, can just wash up at home and wait for me!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"En!" Jiufang Nian Lan nodded.

"Promise me you won't do anything stupid." Xu Taiping said.

"En!" Jiufang Nian Lan nodded again.

"Alright, tell me what it is. What are you waiting for me in the city of Xuanhai? "What does the organization want you to find me for?" Xu Taiping asked.

"The organization wants to know if you have mastered two types of power."
