rface, this guy is just talking nonsense! Tiger Boss wouldn't know someone like this naive kid. He's lying to you, hurry up and get the jade back!"The stout stall owner hadn't noticed Scars Face's od...Now Chen Ping needs to break through the fasting period as soon as possible, entering the alchemy stage. Once an inner elixir is formed within his dantian, his strength will leap forward qualitatively.

And Chen Ping at that time was equivalent to stepping into the realm of Martial Saints. Relying on the Dragon Slaying Sword in his hand, he might even be able to fight against a peak Martial Saint.

Chen Ping's current strength, facing the peak of martial arts, had no chance to make a move.

"That's right, Director Guo has seen all kinds of treasures and wouldn't be interested in a mere dragon crystal..."

Zhao Wuji hurriedly flattered him.

"Master Zhao, you don't have to flatter me. I'm not interested in dragon crystals, but you know what I like, and I hope you'll agree to it... "

Guo Wei said coldly, without being pleased by Zhao Wuji's flattery.

Upon hearing this from Guo Wei, Zhao Wuji paused for a moment before nodding and saying, "I will definitely fulfill my promise to Director Guo. However, as for Mr. Chen..."

"Rest assured, I'll send a notice to all the families and sects on behalf of the Martial Arts Association. Before the international competition, no one is allowed to touch Chen Ping. After all, he represents our great Xia country!"

Guo Wei said.

"Thank you so much, Director Guo..."

When Zhao Wuji heard this, he was immediately delighted.

As long as all the major sects and clans don't cause trouble for Chen Ping before the competition, it'll be fine. After the competition is over, he can secretly send Chen Ping out of Kyoto. With mountains and rivers spanning ten thousand li, Chen Ping can hide anywhere.

After giving Chen Ping two more looks, Guo Wei got up and left. As he was leaving, Guo Wei suddenly flicked his finger, and a white light instantly entered Chen Ping's body.

Chen Ping was taken aback and hurriedly tried to force the white light out, but despite running his spiritual energy through his body for a full cycle, he couldn't find it.

"Mr. Guo..."

Zhao Wujie was also taken aback, not understanding why Guo Wei, who had been speaking amicably, suddenly attacked Chen Ping.

"Don't panic. I've just branded him. He won't be leaving Kyoto until my business is finished."

Guo Wei finished speaking and left directly.

Chen Ping frowned again, scanning his body once more, but he couldn't find the mark at all.

"Not bad, a peak martial arts master indeed, truly impressive…"

Chen Ping watched helplessly as the other party branded him, and he couldn't stop it. He couldn't even find a trace of the brand, which showed how vast the gap in their strength was.

After Zhao Wujie sent Guo Wei away, he walked back and said to Mr. Chen: "Mr. Chen, you can rest assured now. The Martial Arts Alliance has spoken, and those sects and aristocratic families dare not touch you for the time being..."

"Master Zhao, what conditions did you promise that person"

Chen Ping knew that Guo Wei's help was entirely because Zhao Wuji had agreed to his demands.

"It's nothing, Mr. Chen just needs to focus on preparing for the competition. I'll take care of everything else..."

Zha Wuji did not say.

Chen Ping saw that Zhao Wuji didn't say anything, so he didn't ask any further. As for the intricate network of relationships within Kyoto, Chen Ping knew nothing about it, so it was useless to inquire.

The next day, the Martial Arts Alliance spread a message on the Martial Arts Forum: Chen Ping had joined the Protector Pavilion and would participate in an international competition in a few days. Before the competition, no matter what personal grievances or hatreds there were, no one and any sect family was allowed to bother Chen Ping...

This piece of news exploded immediately. The last time Chen Ping fought Qin Xiaolin, he even killed him, which caused a stir on the forum once. However, only a small number of people knew about it. Many martial arts masters didn't pay attention at all because they were just low-level battles, and they weren't interested.le-aged man frowned: "Anyone who makes trouble here at One-Eyed Dragon's place gets beaten fifty big boards first, then I ask about the reason. Are you trying to break my rules""I hear that the people...
