Only then did Lu Yan walk out of the airport. The old man had already sent a special car to bring him to the National Security Headquarters.
"Brother Lu, your reputation is getting bigger and bigger. As soon as you came back, there were several waves of people who came to meet you in advance." Little Meng was the old man's chauffeur, and there were many things that the old man did not shy away from. He was also the soldier the old man had personally picked up.
Lu Yan raised his chin slyly: "I'm just a girl from another family that values this marshal. They won't even think about it, am I that unruly of an emotional person? "Not a single one."
Little Meng smiled wryly as he started the car and drove all the way back to State Security.
When the Wuyang City found out that Lu Yan had left, the minds of everyone started to move. They felt that without Lu Yan who was in their way, they could do anything.
Who knew that at this moment, they would come to this realization? The information from the various powers in the region and above were all warning them of this.
"Well, the bitch is going abroad next month. Then I'd like to see how they protect him. " When the head of the Mu Rong family heard the warning from his men, he was filled with anger. Since when did he, the Mu Rong family, feel so aggrieved?
In the Ouyang family, Ouyang Zhendong was listening to his subordinate's report. On the surface, he did not dare to do anything to Lu Yan, but in reality, he was constantly thinking about how he could dismember Lu Yan's body into ten thousand pieces.
"Go inform the leader of the Tan Qing gang, tell him that I'm going over to discuss something with him tonight." Fiercely gulping down the strong wine in his cup, the corner of his eyes and the corner of his mouth simultaneously drew back with a dangerous curve. His hateful gaze caused the person who sent the message to break out in cold sweat.
"F * ck, this bastard is still not letting us go. You'll be in dire straits someday. Just you wait." Yang Haichao threw the bottle of wine in his hands fiercely onto the ground, causing the people around him to retreat in shock.
Beijing National Security Headquarters
Lu Yan sat on the old man's desk, his legs leisurely swinging off the ground.
"I say, brat, can you get off my desk?" I'm working on a file. What the hell are you doing? " With a head full of black lines, the old man grabbed the cup of water beside him and threw it towards Lu Yan.
The old man's eyes lit up when Lu Yan agilely received the cup. Lu Yan's skills had improved quite a bit, and he didn't even come to praise himself. Lu Yan's following words almost made him go berserk.
"Come on, you're still working? I'll bet you five dollars that there's no time to hide illegal books under your documents. We are all adults, why should we hide ourselves? " Lu Yan curled his lips, just as he was about to step forward and open the document, the old man suddenly took action.
The old man's aura suddenly skyrocketed, causing him to freeze on the spot. When the old man's big hand was about to make contact with Lu Yan, he did not see any signs of Lu Yan retaliating at all.
Only now did the old man understand why Lu Yan, who was usually fearless, would be so dazed.
"What is it? Can't you see others can fight better than you? " The old man took out a cigarette and lit it up for himself. He did not look at Lu Yan who was staring at him intently.
"You, how could you …"
"What would he know? Sit down, I've reached a bottleneck in your strength. This is a watershed. Many people have been blocked outside the door, so either they picked the wrong direction or they didn't put in enough effort. " The old man also came out from behind the desk and sat down on the wooden sofa.
Looking at the old man in disbelief, Lu Yan said with a trembling voice, "You old fellow, you really know how to hide your strength? After hiding for decades, you have been hiding things from me. After teaching so many times with me, you're still letting me win? "
Shaking his head, the old man exhaled a mouthful of smoke: "That's true, the Eighteen Bitter Flame Meridians is not that hard to cultivate, but it requires a lot of effort. However, upon reaching the fifth floor, one had to act in reverse, just like two opposites. So in the past, whether it was a quest or practice, you couldn't lose. If I were to spar with you, I would use the same strength as you. At your age, I don't have the same abilities as you. "
Hearing the old man's words, Lu Yan became even more excited, as he thought that he was unworthy of the old man's attention.
"Come, come, come. Fight with me. Let me see your strength." He landed lightly in the middle of the large office with a look of longing on his face as he looked at the old man.
Helplessly raising his eyelids, the old man asked in an uncertain tone, "Full power?"
Lu Yan nodded.
"Are you sure?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? When will this marshal's words not count?"
"Fine." As soon as he finished speaking, he put the cigarette into his mouth, and with a flash, he arrived in front of Lu Yan and grabbed at his neck.
Just like the pressure from the astral winds, Lu Yan was initially thinking of how to respond to the enemy's sudden attack. The result was that he could only feel his neck being grabbed by the massive force, and he was sent flying, crashing heavily against the door.
Even Sect Leader Lu Yan was knocked out of the door, causing a group of people to rush in from different places.
"Take a look at the balls. All of you, scram. Brat, come with me." After the old man shouted and dismissed his subordinates, he started to size up Lu Yan who was still in a daze with a smile.
Lu Yan seemed to have been disheartened, as he followed the old man into the room.
When he came back to his senses, the old man said, "What do you think is the most important thing in a long-term battle between two opponents with equal strength?"
Not understanding the meaning of the old man's words, Lu Yan thought for a while and said: The trump card, an endless amount of trump cards. It is so for people, it is so for families, and it is even more so for countries. "
"Hmm, since you have already touched the doorstep, you are qualified to know of another wonderful world. Have you heard of the ancient martial arts family? " The old man nodded his head in satisfaction. He did not like the idea of success or failure as a hero.
"Ancient martial arts? What you're talking about is Taiji, form and martial arts? They're unique, but they're not like you said they were, are they? " Lu Yan was in disbelief. He had thought that Yue Yang could be considered a first-rate expert.
Now that he heard the old man's words, it seemed that he was still inferior.
Without giving Lu Yan time to think deeply, the old man continued: "That's right, it's ancient martial arts. In the eyes of ordinary people, your level is a myth, and to them, it's just a beginner level. It's the same at home and internationally. Many families have hidden their trump cards, and are just revealing them at critical moments to catch their opponents off guard. "
From this old man, Lu Yan saw a brand-new world. Lu Yan was much more powerful than the ancient martial artists and the ancient powers scattered throughout the world.
"Go to the second level's library and take a look. I've already given you the authority to enter the second level." The old man had a similar feeling to playing a lute to a cow. Seeing Lu Yan's blank expression, he could only let him go to the higher authority database to find out for himself.
Not only were there detailed reports of the actual danger elements, but there were also detailed records of the past and present lives of some of the ancient powers.
When Lu Yan came out of the second floor, he went back to his office and sat on his seat in a daze.
Suddenly, he felt that the world was huge. The few ancient martial arts families in the capital caused him to feel an inexplicable chill in his heart, not to mention the other ancient forces abroad.
Just as he was in a daze, the Old Man came to the door of his office and knocked on the door frame symbolically a few times. "I say, you still have a mission to complete, hurry up and finish what you came here for, and then scram back to Wuyang City."
After being alarmed by the old man, he finally recovered from his shock. Gradually, his trembling heart turned into excitement. He had originally thought that there was nothing in this world that could cause his blood to boil and his life to go all out.
This door was opened just in time, and his horizons were widened. Although he had not yet come to a clear understanding of the cruelty and splendor of the New World, he had at least now found a new goal.
"Become a handsome and capable man once again." Lu Yan said this in his heart a few times before returning to the second floor's library.
Not only were there descriptions of the various forces, there were also detailed introductions of many strange techniques.
Very few people practiced until the fifth floor of the Eighteen Bitter Flame Meridians, so the highest level one could train to was only the fourth floor. Lu Yan started to look through all kinds of ancient books according to his own characteristics.
Ever since Lu Yan had returned to the headquarters, he had never taken a step out of the national security gate. Lu Yan seemed to become an eccentric person. Every day, other than training nonstop, he would flip through all kinds of books.
The old man and the people from National Security all greeted him, so no one dared to break Lu Yan's bedevilish state. He was completely immersed in his training, and he could feel himself improving every day.
Time flew. A month later, he was sitting on the back mountain of the State Security. The rate at which the Qi flowed in his body became faster and faster, Lu Yan sunk into his mind and did his best to control the speed of the Qi flow.
Due to the rapid circulation of Qi within his body that shook his internal organs, threads of pain gradually turned into intense pain. Not only did this feeling of tearing apart his heart and lungs not cause him to feel fear, it instead gave him a sense of exhilaration.
The originally strange Qi channels in his body were slowly being opened up by the Qi. Once the acupoints were broken through, the whole body would instantly relax.
This kind of feeling was even more intoxicating than being with a beautiful woman in a big comfortable and soft bed.
Several times he almost opened his mouth and moaned comfortably.
In this past month, this old man would secretly observe Lu Yan from a certain place every day when he had nothing to do.
At this moment, he was standing on a tree branch that was only as thick as his pinky finger. With his hands behind his back, he moved up and down with a powerful aura, giving him a sense of transcendence.
"Brat, you sure have some character." Looking at Lu Yan whose face was bleeding profusely from all seven orifices, the old man was very pleased.
Lu Yan was famous for not obeying the rules, he was afraid that Lu Yan's personality would cause him to fail the entrance exam.
There were many taboos when cultivating, such as a quiet environment, and a rational mindset. If he had opened his mouth in a moment of comfort, the qi in his body would have accumulated at his neck, and the qi that came after that would have broken through his veins.
Once he instinctively lowered his head, the air that was rushing into his neck would rush into his brain at an even faster speed. After losing his mind, the qi within his body started to run amok. Even if he didn't die, he would become a madman or a vegetable. This was the legendary Qi deviation.
The old man on the branch waited longer and longer. "No!"
With a few flashes, he arrived in front of Lu Yan. Seeing his entire body tremble, the old man seemed to understand why it was so difficult for Lu Yan to enter the sect.
"This Eighteen Bitter Flame Meridians's appetite is even bigger than this brat." The old man closed his eyes and started to feel the flow of the Qi in Lu Yan's body.
When he felt the air that did not slow down, he finally understood that Lu Yan planned to clear all the acupoints in his body at once.
There was no one in this world who could do this in one fell swoop. There were less than three people in the ancient books.
The old man clearly understood the characteristics of the Eighteen Bitter Flame Meridians. Even Lu Yan had neglected that the Eighteen Bitter Flame Meridians had always been scattered throughout every part of his body, waiting for the moment Lu Yan entered the sect to explode.
