Chapter 1633: Saint Master Jin Shenglong

There are many rumors about Holy Teacher Jin Shenglong in China; some say he swept through China's martial arts world in a week, felt lonely at the top, and then returned home to live in seclusion.

Others say he was defeated in China and swore an oath never to step out of the country again.

Only he knows the truth, but in any case, from that day on, the Holy Teacher faded from public view.

However, even though he lived in seclusion, the Holy Teacher always protected the martial arts world of Bangbang Country, having intervened several times to help resolve crises, and for a long time, he was revered as a guardian by the martial arts world.

This time, Park Jae-sang fled back to his country, knowing that the matter would not be easily resolved, and looking at the entire Bangbang Country, the only one with the strength to contend with Ye Bufan was the Holy Teacher.

Because of this, he came here first to pay his respects, hoping to ask the Holy Teacher for help.

The old man sat there chopping firewood, one piece after another, and finally, when he finished, he looked up at him.

"Is there something you need from me?"

"Holy Teacher, it's like this: our Park Family encountered an opponent in China this time.

That Young man, relying on his cultivation, not only seized our Park Family's investments there but also demanded that we hand over all our family property…"

Park Jae-sang recounted the events, but he completely twisted the facts, portraying himself as an innocent victim and Ye Bufan as an unprincipled bully.

Finally, he said pitifully, "Holy Teacher, our Park Family is truly at a dead end now, which is why we ask you, Old Ancestor, to come out and preside over justice."

Jin Shenglong sat there quietly, his expression unchanging from beginning to end.

"You may leave. This is your Park Family's matter; handle it yourselves."

He had no intention of helping. Firstly, having lived for so many years, he naturally could tell that Park Jae-sang's words contained exaggerations.

Secondly, he protected the martial arts world of Bangbang Country, and it was not worth his intervention unless it was a matter of life and death.

"This…" Park Jae-sang said anxiously, "Holy Teacher, as long as you are willing to help, we are willing to pay any price, even half of our family fortune to you."

This fellow was truly determined; although he would give up half his fortune, he would still have the other half, remaining a prominent family in Bangbang Country. If everything were given to Ye Bufan, they would truly have nothing left.

Half of the Park Family's fortune amounted to hundreds of billions, which would have thrilled anyone else.

But Jin Shenglong shook his head, not at all moved: "I am old and need nothing. I only need a meal and a drink; what use are other things to me?"

"This…"

Seeing that the other party was completely unmoved by money, Park Jae-sang was utterly dumbfounded, standing there helpless.

And the person before him was the Holy Teacher; besides pleading, he had no other recourse.

Otherwise, once the Holy Teacher was angered, the Park Family would be erased from Bangbang Country without Ye Bufan even needing to act.

"Holy Teacher, please reconsider. We truly have no other way out…"

"Leave…"

Jin Shenglong waved his hand, showing no intention of saying more, then picked up another pile of firewood and began chopping, no longer looking at him.

Park Jae-sang was filled with despair and could only walk towards the courtyard gate.

But just as he reached the entrance, his phone rang in his pocket. He picked it up and saw it was Park Ji-sung calling.

He pressed the answer button and asked in a low voice, "Is something wrong?"

"Father, something big has happened here…"

Park Ji-sung recounted the events from beginning to end, finally saying urgently, "Ye Bufan has already wiped out the Zheng Family, and next, it will probably be our Park Family. You must bring the Holy Teacher back, no matter what, otherwise, we are truly finished."

"What? That Young man has already arrived in Han City and even wiped out the Zheng Family?"

Park Jae-sang was startled by the news, then asked, "What about the Zheng Family's Old Ancestor, Zheng Shixun?"

"He has been killed by Ye Bufan. I heard his body and soul were utterly destroyed!"

Park Jae-sang hung up the phone, and after the shock, a glimmer of hope rose in his heart.

He clearly understood the Holy Teacher's reason for refusing him earlier: the Park Family's weight was not enough, and it had not yet jeopardized the entire martial arts world of Bangbang Country.

But now the situation was different. The Zheng Family had been completely wiped out, and even their Old Ancestor was slain. In this situation, the Holy Teacher had no reason to refuse him again.

Thinking of this, he immediately ran back and knelt before Jin Shenglong with a thud.

"Holy Teacher, please act on behalf of the martial arts world of Bangbang Country, and on behalf of our Four Great Families…"

He quickly recounted how Ye Bufan had wiped out the Zheng Family, finally weeping as he said, "Holy Teacher, now you know how arrogant and domineering that Young man is.

He actually wiped out the entire Zheng Family at a slight disagreement, and their Old Ancestor Zheng Shixun was killed, his body and soul utterly destroyed. If you continue to ignore this, our entire Bangbang Country will be slaughtered!"

"There is such a thing!"

Jin Shenglong's tone was calm, but a sharp, cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"A Young man in his twenties dares to be so reckless? Does he truly think there is no one in our Bangbang Country?"

Seeing the Holy Teacher's anger, Park Jae-sang was overjoyed but dared not show it, still crying out with a sorrowful expression, "Holy Teacher, that Young man is indeed so arrogant. Please, no matter what, you must uphold justice for us."

Jin Shenglong hesitated for a moment, then said, "In that case, go deliver a challenge letter to that Young man. Tomorrow at noon, I will duel him at the peak of Qinglong Mountain."

Hearing that the Holy Teacher was finally willing to act, Park Jae-sang was overjoyed, continuously kowtowing on the ground: "I represent the Park Family and Bangbang Country in thanking the Holy Teacher for his help!"

"Alright, you may leave."

Jin Shenglong finished speaking, waved his hand, and began chopping firewood again.

"Thank you, Holy Teacher!"

Park Jae-sang respectfully kowtowed again, and when he stood up, his face was filled with ecstasy.

"Ye Bufan, oh Ye Bufan, your arrogance and ignorance have helped me, otherwise our Park Family would not have escaped this disaster.

If you hadn't wiped out the Zheng Family, the Holy Teacher would never have come out, but now the situation is different. Just wait to die."

With an incredibly excited mood, he left there and returned to the Park Family two hours later.

"Father, how did it go?"

Seeing him enter, Park Ji-sung immediately rushed forward anxiously.

Park Jae-sang said excitedly, "It's done! The Holy Teacher has agreed to help."

"Really? That's wonderful! With the Holy Teacher acting, Ye Bufan is sure to die!"

Park Ji-sung was also ecstatic. As people of Bangbang Country, they had a blind adoration and reverence for the Holy Teacher.

In contrast, Li Hai Zheng was relatively calmer.

"Family Head, it's good that the Holy Teacher agreed to act, but I think we should still make more preparations and not put all our bets on the Holy Teacher alone."

Park Jae-sang was somewhat surprised: "Mr. Li, do you think the Holy Teacher is no match for that Young man?"

Park Ji-sung quickly said, "That's impossible! The Holy Teacher is our guardian; how could he lose to that Chinese Young man?"

"Think about Hong Sihai before; at that time, no one expected him to lose," Li Hai Zheng said. "It's better to be safe than sorry. Ye Bufan is always very strange. Since it concerns the survival of the Park Family, it's better if we prepare more."
