Do you have granddaughters?

  He claimed to be Lei Lao, and Tang Yan naturally believed him. A powerful sect with a few hundred female disciples was nothing out of the ordinary. After all, there were over a dozen female disciples in the boxing school where Tang Yan used to be. To be honest, Tang Yan really didn't want to acknowledge him as his master, not because he wasn't strong enough, but because he didn't want to join some power and spend every day fighting and killing. What was important to Tang Yan was dealing with Zi Lan's little junior sister.

  "Do you have a granddaughter?" Tang Yan had calculated that if he were really one or two hundred years old, he should have great-granddaughters.

  "He has several great-granddaughters studying at Zilong College!" An old man beside him replied to Tang Yan's words.

  "What did you say?" Lei Lao wasn't talking to Tang Yan, but rather to the old man who had just chimed in beside him.

  "What I mean is that at my age, am I still going to flirt with your great-granddaughter? I was just helping you respond to his words." said a guardian of the Nangong family.

  Just now, the three of them joined forces to repel those sect masters. Everyone is equally matched and wants Tang Yan to join their family and sect. The reason he exposed Lei Lao's great-granddaughter in the academy was not to let Tang Yan follow him back to the Palm Sect, but to make him go to the Imperial Capital instead.

  "I've thought it over, I've decided to pursue your great-granddaughter, and those few from the academy! As for your martial arts, that Thunderbolt Nine Extremes Palm looks pretty good, but I still don't think much of it. Unless you can block one of my moves!" Tang Yan said with a smile.

  "Little kid, my Thunder Nine Extremes Palm is a beginner's Heavenly Stage palm technique. You actually said it's not impressive? Ah, yes, you just said that if I can block one of your moves, you'll acknowledge me as your master?" Old Lei said with some irritation upon hearing Tang Yan's words.

  "You say you're a beginner in the Heavenly Stage, but not an advanced one. How is that? Are you afraid to take my move?" Tang Yan said with his right hand behind his back on the hilt of the Blowing Snow Sword.

  "Alright, come on! Let me see what you're capable of as a four-star Grandmaster!" Lei Lao heard Tang Yan's words.

  Tang Yan didn't say a word, he just looked at Lei Lao with a smile, then Lei Lao's palm made a loud noise, one after another. Every time it rang out, Lei Lao took a step back. Nan Gong Xiangxue beside him was like Tang Yan earlier, his eyes wide open in extreme surprise, not daring to believe that Tang Yan's four-star Great Dou Shi's strength was so powerful that he could fight against the Ling.

  In front of ordinary people, Tang Yan seemed to have not drawn his sword, but in the eyes of Dou Wang, Tang Yan had already launched ten consecutive attacks, each one being caught by Lei Lao's hands.

  "Kid, I admit your strength is formidable, but unfortunately you're fighting against the Dou Huang, understand? It's the Dou Huang, not the Dou Ling!" Lei Lao didn't mind Tang Yan attacking him so many times, but in his heart he was cursing: "Damn it, this kid really has some skills, no wonder the Dou Ling level strength is at a disadvantage in front of him."

  "It turns out that my strength is so far apart from yours!" Tang Yan stopped attacking, it was useless anyway, he was no match for him at all, the difference in strength was too great.

  "Heh heh, just knowing is enough, trust me, if you bow to my gate, I can make you a Dou Wang within half a year!" Lei Lao said with great confidence to Tang Yan.

  "Is there no other way? Otherwise, let's do it this way. I'll acknowledge you as my teacher, just like Nan Gong Xiang Xue!" Tang Yan said, pointing at Nan Gong Xiang Xue and the two elderly men beside her.

  "Teacher?"

  Fainted, doesn't Tang Yan know the difference between a teacher and a master? A teacher teaches students without expecting anything in return, but a master teaches students to pass on their legacy, perhaps the next leader will be handed over to the apprentice.

  "I don't lack students, think about it, the countless students of our sect all want to worship me as their master. I took you in as my inner disciple because I value you, with your natural talent, who knows, maybe the next leader of our sect will be you!" The conditions offered by the leader of the Palm Sect were even better than those offered by Nangong Xiangxue.

  However, Tang Yan still insisted on being neutral, saying that he would consider it for a while. Yes, he was considering it, not immediately agreeing to his so-called primary Thunder Palm. Tang Yan was indeed interested, and now he was practicing sword techniques. If the Blowing Snow in his hand were to be snatched away, then his strength would be greatly discounted. With the Thirty Roads Fist Method of the Quan Gate, it was trash that couldn't be any more trashy. It would be best if he could also learn the Inherited Soul-Leg, which would make him lose his soul if kicked and lose his life if his soul was broken.

  The ancient Southern Palace Wang clan's martial art was the Handprint Technique, which also carried the Purple Dragon Qi. This made Tang Yan's heart move, but in his mind, he secretly thought that on that day, he would devour the Purple Dragon Soul within the Southern Palace Wang clan. Perhaps from then on, their martial arts would also contain dragon qi, and they would become even more powerful at killing enemies, especially when it came to killing demonic beasts - haha, dragon qi was the bane of demonic beasts.

  Since Tang Yan said he would consider it, Lao Lei didn't make things difficult for him. However, he didn't leave and insisted on going to the Imperial Capital to see his great-granddaughter. And so, a thrilling but ultimately harmless battle of wits came to an end. Of course, those sect leaders who had left early also saw that they were continuing their journey.

  "I was worried to death just now. By the way, are you really going to join the Zhāng Zōng sect?" Zi Lan little sister said following Táng Yàn's side.

  "Do you want me to join or not?" Tang Yan asked with a smile, holding Zi Lan's jade hand.

  "I don't know!" Zilan said, biting her lip.

  "Why don't you know?" Tang Yan asked.

  "I'm sorry, I was wrong to hit you. Father used to treat you like trash, our fellow disciples treated you like a dog...

  Zilan wanted to continue, but Tang Yan knew what she was going to say. However, Tang Yan shook his head and said: "Those things are in the past, forget it, don't mention them again. Your school doesn't owe me anything, on the contrary, you even got a wife out of it! Come, let me give you a kiss!"

  "Are you really not angry with us?" Zilan didn't let Tang Yan kiss her, nor did she blush. After all, it wasn't the first time Tang Yan had kissed her. In the cave for a few days, Tang Yan had secretly kissed her several times, and Zilan's heart had also accepted this lustful fiancé.

  "I hate them, but I don't hate you, you're my wife, little sister, the things I promised to do for you, I'll help you achieve!" Tang Yan didn't put these people in his eyes at all, and now he stretched out a pig mouth towards Zilan.

  "Please, don't be so flirtatious, okay?" Xuan Yuan Yue said with a hint of disapproval.

  "Are you jealous?"

  "Zilan, don't get too close to this pervert, or he'll eat you up and run away with that old man!" Xuan Yuan Yue pulled Zilan over and said.

  "Zilan is my wife, don't corrupt her, okay? What's with the running? Don't talk nonsense, it's not right. Nobody says you're a white tiger!" Tang Yan said.

  "You, you scoundrel, I'll beat you to death, beat you to death..."

  As soon as Tang Yan said she was the White Tiger, Xuan Yuan Yue's fiery personality flared up again. She started punching and kicking Tang Yan with her small fists and feet, looking even more ferocious than Nan Gong Xiang Snow earlier. However, her strength couldn't compare to Nan Gong Xiang Snow's. Tang Yan let her hit him, watching with amusement as she grew angrier. As she got angry, her chest heaved up and down, the twin peaks of her breasts bouncing with each punch, looking like they might jump out at any moment.

  Just now, Tang Yan broke through to become a four-star Grand Master. Honestly, it's what I've been longing to see all along, and it's finally come true. And as an added bonus, I got to see two ultra-beautiful women, one of whom is even a princess! However, Tang Yan didn't dare flirt with Nangong Xiangxue, lest he get beaten into a pig head again!

  Lei Lao, who was following behind them, kept sizing up the somewhat innocent-looking young man. He wanted to ask Tang Yan some questions about the forbidden land, but he didn't ask. Maybe it wasn't the right time yet, in case Tang Yan changed his mind and joined the Nan Gong royal family, rendering all his efforts useless.

  "I'm telling you, Old Lei, your Thunderbolt Nine-Extreme Palm, can't you first teach me one extreme move and let me see if it's really that powerful?" Tang Yan asked with a swollen face, covering the corner of his mouth as he spoke.

  "Alright, anyway I don't know if you're suitable for the Thunder Nine Absolute Palm either. Since you want to learn it, let me teach you one style first and see!" Lao Lei replied to Tang Yan's words.

  The sect has many palm techniques, but the Thunder Nine Absolute Palm is a secret that is not passed down internally. However, it has one drawback - not anyone can cultivate it. It requires practitioners with a thunder-type physique. In this martial world, humans have five types of physiques: water, fire, gold, thunder, and earth. As for Tang Yan's physique, he doesn't know what type it belongs to because his master never told him.

  Next, Lao Lei explained the knowledge of the five-element physique to Tang Yan. The so-called five-element physique, some people are born with it, some use elixirs to change and evolve, and some have been soaking in the blood of five-element physique magic beasts for a long time to change their physique. As for using elixirs to change one's physique, Tang Yan was aware of this because it was recorded in "Ancient Elixir Techniques" that there were elixirs specifically designed for the five elements, and another type of elixir that could grant someone a five-element physique instantly. Having one element is very common, two elements are rare, three elements are seldom seen, four elements are rarely heard of, and five elements are legendary.

  After explaining the five systems, Lao Lei began to pass on the first move of the Thunderbolt Nine Extremes Palm to Tang Yan. After passing it on, Tang Yan didn't immediately practice the Thunderbolt Nine Extremes Palm, but instead used his own knowledge to continually comprehend this method of the Thunder System. As for the palm technique, Lao Lei had already spoken about it; if Tang Yan succeeded in mastering it, he would also pass on the palm technique to him.

  Nanjing City!

  Tang Yan and his group arrived at Ningyang City in the evening, so they first went to eat and rest. Now that there were three Dou Huangs by Tang Yan's side, he wasn't too worried about Zi Lan's safety. After hastily eating something, Tang Yan returned to his own room, sat cross-legged on the bed, and entered the Snow Realm to cultivate this Thunderbolt Technique.

  Unexpectedly, after Tang Yan entered the Snow Boundary for about a day, there was finally some movement in the Dragon Ring. The old man who had been sleeping woke up and appeared in the Snow Boundary in the form of a soul.

  "Kid, you're really something. A few days without seeing you and you've made another breakthrough. But it's about time you contributed to old man!" An old thing suddenly appeared in front of Tang Yan, speaking these words very rudely.

  "You, you dare!" Tang Yan, who had just managed to break through the Four-Star Great Fighting Master, jumped out from the snowy ground as soon as he heard his words.

  "I'm your teacher, giving me strength is the blessing you've accumulated over several lifetimes!"

  After finishing, the power in Tang Yan's body kept flowing into the dragon ring on his finger, like flowing water, very fast. The four-star power dropped to three stars in an instant. Fortunately, this time it wasn't a two-star drop, otherwise Tang Yan would have had a plan to crash into the wall! The old man who got one star of energy also became clear and transparent, with a look of ascension, but his face was written with a smug expression.

  "It's just one star, I can help you take down a Dou Wang!" The old man said, looking at Tang Yan's bitter melon face.

  "Whatever, who made me so unlucky!" Tang Yan also accepted this reality and said.

  "You're not unlucky, you're lucky. This time the old man's spiritual power has become much stronger than before. As long as you find a six-stage or higher, eight-stage or lower magical beast, it can help you break through three star stages at once, isn't that what you want to cultivate 'Mu Xue San Qian'?" The old man said to Tang Yan.

  "Really?" Tang Yan heard his words and jumped up, but soon he was excited to say: "I've seen many first and second-order demons, but where can I find sixth-order or higher ones? You won't ask me to go back to the Forbidden Land, will you?"

  "Some of the famous sects have very powerful guardian beasts, I don't need to say it, you should understand!" In order to reduce the risk, the old man let Tang Yan choose some of the well-known sects.
