"How…how do we know?”Fan Yifei was stumped.
Bei Haishi continued," When Sect Leader Situ handed over the heavy responsibility, all of us knew nothing about Sect Leader Shi's character and martial arts. Seeing that he was so young and did not have much fame in the martial arts world, we were a little unconvinced that he would lead the heroes. However, after Sect Leader Shi took over, he had made several great contributions to the sect, which had greatly benefited the reputation of the sect. As expected, Sect Leader Situ had a discerning eye for heroes. Not only was his martial arts superior to others, but his knowledge was also extraordinary. Cough cough…If not for this, how could he be friends with the Liaodong heroes? Hehe!"
" Doctor Bei," Lu Zhengping suddenly interjected," the information we received in the east of the country was not so. That's why we came to the Central Plains together to investigate."”
"There are rumors spread thousands of miles away. I wonder what rumors you have heard?”Bei Haishi said calmly.
"Before the truth is revealed, it's hard to say whether this is a rumor or not," Lu Zhengping said. "We heard from a good friend that Big Brother Situ is…is…" The light in his eyes suddenly brightened as he said in a clear voice,"Big Brother Situ, you are…""…He was killed by the Chang Le Gang and died for no reason. The position of the sect leader had fallen into the hands of a lustful, violent, and cruel young prodigal. This friend's words sounded real. We remember the good things that Brother Situ did in the past. Although we know that our martial arts are famous and we are not worthy to ask about your sect's matters, we are passionate about our friends. It's a little…a little presumptuous.”
Bei Haishi sneered and said,""Brother Lu also knows, isn't this presumptuous?”
Lu Zhengping's face heated up and he said loudly,""Why should outsiders ask who your sect is willing to serve as its master? We, fellow martial artists from the east of the country, just want to ask your sect, is Big Brother Situ dead or alive? Was he willing to not be the leader of your sect, or was he forced by others?”
"Although that Bei fellow isn't good for anything, he's still considered to have a reputation in the martial arts world. If you insist that I'm lying, I'll have to lie to the end. Hehe, all of you are people of great status and background in the martial arts world. You are so enthusiastic to be friends that it is admirable. However, this matter is not clear, not clear!”Bei Haishi taunted loudly.
The third year girl was so ridiculed by Bei Haishi that she couldn't help but be furious. She said sternly,"I'm afraid you, Bei, are the mastermind behind Big Brother Situ's death. We came to the Central Plains to avenge Big Brother Situ. We never wanted to go back alive. Since you have the guts to do something, you should have the guts to bear it. Tell me quickly, is Big Brother Situ dead or alive?”
Bei Haishi said lazily,"That Bei fellow has been sick for many years. He's been making a fuss about whether he's dead or alive. He's long felt that there's not much taste in life." If you want to kill the Third Year Lady, please do it.”
"You're a famous martial arts expert, yet you're here to play such a lazy game for me." If you don't want to tell me, then alright, Faction Leader Qin, you tell me. Is Brother Situ dead or alive?”She thought that Bei Haishi was cunning and could not win against him in a verbal battle. He was afraid that he would be outnumbered in a fight. Qin Chen was a young man. Even if he refused to tell the truth, she could still see some clues from his expression.
"I've never met the former Sect Master Situ, so I don't know how he is doing." Qin Chen smiled.”
"You don't know? Then there must be someone who knows, right? Where did that Shi brat go? Call him out and I'll ask him face to face.”The third year girl said angrily.
"The former Sect Master Shi has left our sect for a long time. He's long gone." Qin Chen shook his head.”
"You don't know, and the people who know aren't here. I think you must have worked together to harm Brother Situ.”As the Third Year Lady spoke, she pulled out her flying knife and wanted to make a move.
Fan Yifei quickly stopped him and said," Faction Leader Qin, Mr. Bei, we came to the Central Plains this time to find out whether Big Brother Situ is dead or alive." He won't be the leader of your gang. Was it because he was willing or because he was forced? Mr. Bei said that the news we received was a rumor. Then, as long as we let Brother Situ meet us, won't the truth be revealed? Although Big Brother Situ has already lived in seclusion, he has an extraordinary relationship with us. Back then in Liaodong, we were considered friends for life and death. He would definitely not meet us.”
"Although I'm not too sure about the details when Sect Master Situ gave up his position to Sect Master Shi, from what I know, Sect Master Situ did give up his position voluntarily."”"Actually, it's not impossible to say that Sect Leader Situ was coerced." However, it wasn't his brothers who threatened him.”
"Who's that?"
Qin Chen didn't answer, but instead asked,""I wonder if the four of you have heard of a major event that has happened in the martial arts world recently?”
"Is it that matter?" Lu Zhengping asked.
"Not long ago, the members of the Flying Fish Gang and the Iron Fork Union were all killed." Have the four of you heard about this?"
The Flying Fish Gang and the Iron Fork Gang were slaughtered because they did not accept the reward and punishment bronze plate. It had already spread throughout the martial arts world and everyone knew about it. Fan Yifei and the other three had also heard about it. The four of them thought to themselves, Could it be that Big Brother Situ giving up the position of Sect Master has something to do with the invitation bronze plate? That's right, Big Brother Situ must have given up the position of Sect Leader because he didn't want to take the bronze plate. The person that Sect Leader Qin was referring to was the Good and Evil Messengers. Big Brother Situ didn't want to see outsiders. It must be because he was afraid of death that he gave up the position of sect leader. And feel ashamed to see others."
"Big Brother Situ, are you not the Sect Master for the bronze plate of the banquet on the Swordsman Island?" Feng Liang asked immediately.”
Qin Chen smiled without saying anything.
At this moment, someone suddenly laughed. "Everyone is waiting for the bronze plate invitation from the Swordsman Island, right? Very good, very good, the bronze plate is here!”
Two people suddenly stood in the hall. One of them was tall and sturdy, with a round face and big ears. He wore a bronze silk robe. The other one was also tall but very thin. He was wearing a sky-blue robe, and his body was not even half as wide as the previous person. He had a moustache, but his expression was quite gloomy. No one knew when these two people had arrived.
Qin Chen looked at the two of them and guessed that they were the two messengers of reward and punishment, Zhang San and Li Si, who made the world pale at the mention of them.
When the heroes saw Zhang San and Li Si's sudden appearance, they knew that their martial arts were extraordinarily high. When they saw their appearances again, they were like the good and evil envoys who had been feared in the martial arts world for the past 30 years.
