Chapter 1541 - 1846: Potential Threat

Entering the sterile room, Ling Gengqiu was wearing a pair of large shorts, walking around, moving his legs.

"Brother, how do you feel? Any discomfort?" Ling Chen stepped forward and asked.

"Not bad." Ling Gengqiu replied with a smile: "It’s been a long time since I’ve felt so comfortable."

"Are you sure the poison from that Arrow Frog didn’t affect you?" Ling Chen was a bit skeptical. After all, it’s a deadly poison lurking in Ling Gengqiu’s body, and it might explode anytime.

Ling Gengqiu seemed to have read Ling Chen’s thoughts and said with a smile: "No need to worry about me. Although the poison from the Arrow Frog is in my body, it doesn’t affect me. Not only that, I discovered some uses."

"Uses?" Ling Chen asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

"Watch closely." As soon as he said that, Ling Gengqiu suddenly sped up, instantly rushing to a wall, and gently slapped it with his palm, right in the middle of the wall. Seeing Ling Gengqiu’s inexplicable action, Ling Chen couldn’t help but be puzzled. What was this for?

When he put down his arm, sharp-eyed Ling Chen immediately noticed a green handprint left on the wall.

This... Ling Chen asked curiously: "Brother, how did you do that?"

"I just discovered this. After the Arrow Frog’s poison merged with my blood, even my Inner Strength transformed. What you see as that patch of green is the Arrow Frog’s poison that can channel through my Inner Strength. Anyone daring to clash palms with me or gets hit by me will certainly die." At this point, Ling Gengqiu looked particularly excited.

"Brother, is this considered a good thing?"

"Of course it’s a good thing, this poison’s presence invisibly boosts my power quite a bit. If I run into Su Cheng’en again, I’ll definitely give him something to think about. Alright! Everything has been handled, we should head back."

"Brother, I think you should stay around for observation for a few more days. After all, this isn’t something to joke about lightly."

"No need, let’s go." With that, not waiting for Ling Chen to speak again, Ling Gengqiu was already urging him to leave. Leaving the Guo Family, Ling Chen got in the car with Ling Gengqiu and asked: "Brother, where are we going back to?"

"Nightclub." Without thinking, Ling Gengqiu blurted out.

Uh... Ling Chen touched his nose, and said with a bitter smile: "Brother, can’t you stay in line for a few days?"

"Go, I finally became a whole person, I’m definitely going to a nightclub to celebrate."

Celebrate? Ling Chen murmured to himself: "Celebrating is just an excuse; the real desire is for women." He knew well, although Ling Gengqiu is a master in the field of love, he hasn’t had much success recently. Whenever he has time, Ling Gengqiu would chat up beautiful women on social media, inviting them out after one or two days of chatting. However, due to Ling Gengqiu’s missing leg, women often enter the hotel, see him disabled, and leave without a word, leaving Ling Gengqiu alone in the room.

Now, Ling Gengqiu has finally returned to normal, naturally wanting to vent his inner frustrations.

Sigh... Forget it! After all, he is the elder in my family. With no choice, Ling Chen had to drive Ling Gengqiu to a luxurious nightclub and let him enjoy himself alone.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Ling Chen drove early to the Martial Arts Tournament venue. Five days remain before the official commencement of the Martial Arts Tournament, and starting today, a lot of things need to be arranged. After the construction team’s overtime work, the venue was completely set up. Because there will be many participants, the organizer canceled seats, leaving only one hundred VIP seats. This not only frees up space but also saves a lot of expenses.

Around the venue, many triangular flags were hung, inscribed with a huge ’Martial’ word, fluttering in the wind, imposing.

Ling Chen took a walk around the venue perimeter, and it wasn’t long before Su Mei, Tong Zhentian, and Qi Yong arrived at the venue one after another.

"Hey there! Mr. Ling, it’s been a while." Seeing Ling Chen, Qi Yong quickened his steps and approached, courteously clasping his fist.

"Mr. Qi, hello." Ling Chen responded with a smile, and greeted Su Mei and Tong Zhentian.

"Ling Chen, what do you think of this venue?" Su Mei asked.

Ling Chen smiled slightly and said: "Master Su’s personal efforts, naturally all aspects are taken care of. To build such a large venue in such a short time truly makes the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion impressive."

"Not at all, it’s all thanks to your support. Let’s go, I brought everyone here today to discuss something." With that said, Su Mei walked ahead, leading everyone to tour the venue.

Ling Chen and Tong Zhentian lagged behind, occasionally exchanging a few whispers.

"Elder Tong, what does Master Su want with us?"

"I heard the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion intercepted some intelligence, someone is plotting chaos at the Martial Arts Tournament."

"Is that so?" Ling Chen was greatly surprised. This was no joking matter, if true, the Martial Arts Tournament would face major issues. Calming down a bit, Ling Chen softly asked: "Elder Tong, is the intelligence accurate?"

"Not sure, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion is fully verifying this intelligence’s accuracy, and there’s no news yet." Pausing, Tong Zhentian continued: "The Martial Arts Tournament is a rare event in a century, but a pot of soup left too long inevitably attracts a few mouse droppings. Whether it’s Dragon Tiger Hall or the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, both have enemies in Martial Arts. This Martial Arts Tournament is nominally hosted by the Martial Arts Association, but everyone is aware that the Martial Arts Association consists of Dragon Tiger Hall, Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, Dangyang Sect. If an issue arises, no one among the three forces can escape responsibility."

"What are we going to do then?"

Tong Zhentian shook his head and said: "We have no real plan at the moment, so that’s why you’re called here. You will be responsible for the venue’s security, which makes your role pivotal."

Upon hearing this, Ling Chen couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly, looking gloomy: "Elder Tong, is it too late for me to quit now?"

Tong Zhentian patted Ling Chen’s shoulder: "My mistake, I thought it was a simple task, didn’t realize this could happen."

"Elder Tong, I was joking, don’t take it seriously." With this, Ling Chen changed his tone, seriously saying: "If this intelligence proves true, we should cancel or postpone the event. With so many people attending the Martial Arts Tournament, should an issue arise, handling it will be very difficult."

"We’ve considered what you said, but the Martial Arts Tournament has been promoted for so long that almost everyone knows about it. Abruptly canceling it will surely have a huge impact on the reputation of the Martial Arts Association, a consequence we cannot bear."
