Chapter 405: Chapter 405

This can actually awaken again, without a doubt, this is the most terrifying strength Wang Longhu has encountered since he began practicing martial arts.

"Welcome, Chief Commandant!!!"

Some quick-witted kid responded first, immediately dropping to his knees, kowtowing to the square-faced man.

Seeing this, the others followed suit and also prostrated themselves in kneeling.

Although some of them were from Japan Island, after joining the Heaven and Earth Alliance, they all had a deep understanding of the Alliance's past history.

They had deeply studied what the predecessor of the Heaven and Earth Alliance was, what it originated from.

In the early Qing dynasty, WW fell, the coastal areas of Min Province were impoverished, and the arrival of the Heaven and Earth Alliance began to absorb the people, thus raising its fame.

But later, things went unfavorable, and they had to retreat to Japan Island, where they stationed themselves to recuperate and recover.

The first Chief Commandant of the Heaven and Earth Alliance then, was called 'Monk Yunlong', possessing extraordinary martial skills.

It was under his leadership that the Heaven and Earth Alliance could establish a foothold in Japan Island, wresting land from the locals until it possessed its current strength.

However, at the age of sixty-seven, Monk Yunlong died sitting in meditation on Japan Island. At the time, the people of the Heaven and Earth Alliance regarded this Chief Commandant as a deity, unwilling to bury him.

Thus, they enshrined him, placing him on the altar at the headquarters of the Heaven and Earth Alliance as a spiritual symbol of the alliance.

Later, the Heaven and Earth Alliance ceased to set up the title of Chief Commandant and instead changed it uniformly to Alliance Leader.

But who could have imagined, Monk Yunlong had long achieved the realm of the Three Elixirs and Three Escapes, he was not actually dead but had entered the Resting State.

For Monk Yunlong, this was called cultivation.

The mysteries within are something ordinary people cannot comprehend.

It's important to know that martial arts are derived from the Daoist elixir scriptures, which mention reclusive training by immortals that can last for decades, centuries.

In the mountains, there is no passage of time, the cold ends without knowing the years.

When waking up from reclusion in the mountains, countless years may have passed outside, which is not surprising to those who 'cultivate'.

Hearing those Heaven and Earth Alliance members speaking Japanese, Monk Yunlong's eyes instantly showed anger.

Back then, when he led the Heaven and Earth Alliance to Japan Island, they often clashed with the local warriors.

At that time, Japan Island was very unwelcoming to these foreign martial artists, filled with discrimination and insult.

After Monk Yunlong secluded himself, he did not know the changes outside and how the Heaven and Earth Alliance had developed.

He subconsciously thought it was Japan Island warriors causing trouble, and immediately waved his hand.

Several visible white breaths instantly spurted from his palm, swiftly shooting those Heaven and Earth Alliance members speaking Japanese out.

When they landed, these people were already dead.

Seeing the Chief Commandant they hailed slaughtering so ruthlessly and unrestrainedly,

The remaining Heaven and Earth Alliance members instantly felt cold-hearted, kneeling on the ground in fear, not knowing what to do.

With Monk Yunlong, the Chief Commandant, in front and Wang Longhu, the intruder, behind, the strength of both was far beyond ordinary people's capacity to contend with—a true case of facing a wolf in front and a tiger behind, no matter what, all meant death.

"Huh?!" The moment Wang Longhu saw Monk Yunlong strike, his eyes revealed a shock.

Although Monk Yunlong emitted white breath, it was not Gang Qi.

Wang Longhu could sense that the power of this white breath was likely stronger than Gang Qi.

"Who are you?" Monk Yunlong turned his gaze to Wang Longhu, touching his big head, asked nasally.

As a fellow expert, he naturally could discern that Wang Longhu's strength was not simple, different from the Japanese warriors he killed earlier.

Hearing Monk Yunlong's inquiry, Wang Longhu was taken aback.

Not because of anything else, but because the language Monk Yunlong was speaking turned out to be Min Province's Minnan dialect, asking what sort of person he was. For origınal chapters go to N0v3l.Fiɾe.net

Although Dong County is located in Wen City, the language spoken is also from the Minnan dialect, so Wang Longhu could somewhat understand it, feeling a certain sense of familiarity being in a foreign land.

"Mainlander, Uncle." Wang Longhu pondered for a moment and replied.

"What?" Monk Yunlong frowned.

When he brought the Heaven and Earth Alliance to Japan Island, it was the twenty-eighth year of Qianlong. Adding his subsequent rest and seclusion, he naturally didn't know current history.

Wang Longhu had no choice but to patiently explain the current world situation to him.

After all, no matter what, this was a compatriot with the bloodline of Yan and Huang.

"So that's it, the Great Qing has fallen..." Monk Yunlong sat on the altar, dazedly holding an apple.

In just two hundred years, the world had changed too quickly. For Monk Yunlong, it was like someone who had just bought a large phone and a pager waking up the next day only to be told that everyone now uses Huawei, and pagers and large phones are obsolete—can you accept it?

"Now people live better than in your era, without worrying about food or shelter, living in peace, the nine provinces free from war," Wang Longhu said.

"Good, good, that's good, that's good," Monk Yunlong nodded with relief.

"However, nowadays there's no need for martial artists anymore, powerful martial artists only instill fear among the people. Uncle, you'd better stay on Japan Island; with your strength, you can control the Heaven and Earth Alliance to accomplish more things."

Wang Longhu was genuinely worried that Monk Yunlong would want to return for a look, but for someone from the Qing dynasty like him, integrating into modern life would be very difficult, and he'd likely cause a stir.

So he thought, if there's going to be trouble, let it stay in Japan Island, as Wang Longhu wouldn't feel bad if this place got ruined.
