Chapter 6825
Such a person is not someone we can approach.
Countless families have spared no expense, even spending enormous sums of money and connections, just to get a word of advice from him or to obtain a pass to enter this place!
Because being able to step into Qujiang Club means that you have stepped into a circle of true power and resources that transcends the ancient city!
This place is a gathering place for forces powerful enough to influence the entire region. Whether they are business tycoons, political elites, or heroes of the martial arts world, they all consider it an honor to be a guest of honor here.
And the seemingly ordinary yet mysterious man in front of us is actually the mastermind behind all of this!
This realization shocked and excited Chen Ziyan, and filled her with awe.
Chen Moran looked at his daughter's shocked expression, her mouth slightly agape and her eyes wide like saucers. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, a mix of nostalgia for the past, worry about the current situation, and unease that his daughter was about to learn more secrets.
He leaned closer to his daughter, lowered his voice, and continued to whisper, "Don't be fooled by his hunched figure and restrained aura, which make him seem like an ordinary old man. It's as if a gust of wind could blow him over."
Ten years ago, I witnessed a thrilling underground conflict.
It was in an abandoned factory in the ancient city. The dim lights flickered in the wind, and a suffocating atmosphere of tension filled the air.
At that time, there was a renowned master of the Tongtian Realm, a figure of great renown in the martial arts world. His cultivation was unfathomable, and his attacks were ruthless. Countless people had suffered at his hands.
But even this expert couldn't withstand three moves from the old snake!
The old snake's movements were like a ghost, elusive and unpredictable, each strike precise and deadly.
With just three moves, the expert at the Tongtian Realm collapsed to the ground, all his meridians severed, and he disappeared from the martial arts world from then on.
His strength... is truly unfathomable!
This is one of the reasons why Qujiang Club has been able to stand firm in the ancient city and no one dares to mess with it.
After all, with such a peerless master in charge, who would dare to easily provoke trouble?
Of course, that's not the most important thing...
Chen Ziyan felt her heart pounding wildly in her chest, as if it were about to burst out of her chest.
Her hands gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force.
Hearing her father say, "That's not the most important thing," she could no longer suppress her curiosity and instinctively asked, "Then..."
What is the most important reason?
Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with urgency and longing.
Chen Moran narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze revealing a hint of awe and solemnity.
He uttered only six words slowly, his voice soft yet heavy, as if each word carried a thousand pounds of weight: "War God Alliance, Di Tianyan."
"hiss……"
Chen Ziyan gasped, feeling a chill instantly rise from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, and the hairs on her body stood on end.
Her body trembled slightly involuntarily, as if she were in a world of ice and snow.
War God Alliance, Emperor Tianyan!
This name is a household name in the ancient city, and even in the entire martial arts world.
It represents a vast and intricate martial arts kingdom spanning several provinces!
It was a powerful force composed of countless martial arts masters, whose sphere of influence and reach were beyond imagination.
Before this martial arts kingdom, any family or power seems insignificant.
It is a true behemoth capable of manipulating events and controlling the world with a single hand! Its influence and deterrent power far exceed that of a mere Qujiang Club!
So this is the despairing backer behind the old snake!
With the support of the War God Alliance, Old Snake and Qujiang Club were able to develop so recklessly in the ancient city, with no one daring to confront them.
It took Chen Ziyan a long while to recover from the huge shock.
Her eyes were still somewhat dazed, and the various legends of the War God Alliance and Emperor Tianyan kept flashing through her mind.
At this moment, she noticed that the old snake seemed somewhat uneasy. His originally steady steps became a little hurried, and his eyes kept glancing towards the entrance. His originally calm face revealed a hint of expectation and tension.
She couldn't help but whisper, "Dad, Old Snake... he seems to be waiting for someone?"
Could it be that they are waiting for... that Di Tianyan?
Her voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing something, but her eyes were full of speculation and doubt.
Chen Moran slowly shook his head, the gesture carrying a hint of helplessness and desolation, with a subtle self-mockery in his expression.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, gazing into the distance, as if recalling the Chen family's past, or perhaps lamenting the Chen family's insignificance in this complex situation.
"Who this person is waiting for is beyond our comprehension."
In their world, our Chen family is nothing more than an insignificant speck of dust.
In their eyes, they might not even be considered chess pieces, at most just bits of trash occasionally swept off the edge of the chessboard.
His voice was low and hoarse, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying endless bitterness.
"The most urgent task is to solve our own problems first."
The person we invited should be arriving soon.
As Chen Moran spoke, he took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
He carefully took out another black card with higher privileges from his inner pocket. The black card shimmered with a mysterious and noble luster under the light, as if it contained endless power and wealth.
He gently brought the black card closer to a more secluded door, which was made entirely of ebony with delicate and deep grain, exuding an ancient and solemn aura.
With a soft "beep," the door slowly opened, revealing a deep passageway.
Chen Ziyan stood behind her father, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
She glanced one last time at the old snake's slightly anxious back. The old snake kept raising his hand to check his watch, and his steps were hurried as he paced around the hall, like an ant on a hot pan.
Looking at the brightly lit gate, the dazzling lights illuminated the entire club as if it were daytime, but behind this prosperity lay countless conspiracies and dangers.
An inexplicable sense of anticipation rose in her heart, like a seed quietly sprouting, as if she sensed that something unusual was about to happen.
But her father's urging voice rang in her ears like an alarm bell, forcing her to look away.
Filled with doubt and a hint of resentment, she followed closely behind her father and slowly entered the private room that represented a higher level of transaction.
The door to the private room slowly closed behind them, shutting out the noise and commotion outside.
Just as the ebony doors gently closed, as if by a twist of fate, an extremely ordinary-looking young man appeared before the magnificent, gilded gates of the Qujiang Clubhouse. (End of Chapter)
