Chapter 2 Notification
"Brother Xiao, why aren't you drinking?"
Xiao Xuan held the wine bowl but did not drink it, which made Lei Long's expression somewhat solemn, and he kept a close eye on Xiao Xuan's every move.
Meanwhile, Madam Lei was standing not far in front of Xiao Xuan, also looking at him with a raised eye.
"Young Master Xiao, are you still angry? Do you feel that my chieftain has been unfair?"
"Hmph!" Seeing this, Wang Hong immediately chimed in, "Since you're not convinced, why don't we go outside and have a showdown right now!"
Faced with the barrage of questions and accusations from the crowd, Xiao Xuan's heart began to race.
Because not only the wine bowl in front of him, but also the people in the room at this moment had some barely perceptible writing on them, such as the woman in front of him.
【Su Qing (Six Realms)】
Known in the martial arts world as "Heartbreaker Scorpion," he is a traitor to the Five Immortals Sect and a protector of the Xuan Yang Sect.
[He stole the second of the Five Spirit Poisons from the Five Immortals Sect. He was the de facto controller of Thousand Waves Village planted by the Xuan Yang Sect.]
Five Immortals Sect?
Xiao Xuan was greatly shocked. In his memory, this woman was just one of Lei Long's wives on the surface. He never expected her to be so secretive and a master who kept her skills hidden.
The Five Immortals Sect is one of the major sects in the Southern Frontier, and they are most skilled at using Gu poison. If there is Gu poison in the wine, it must have been this woman who used it.
To confirm, Xiao Xuan immediately looked at Lei Long.
【Thunder Dragon (Sixth Realm)】
Known in the martial arts world as "South Sea Dragon," he is the leader of Thousand Waves Village and a member of the Xuan Yang Sect.
[They have a human trafficking relationship with the Fusang Kingdom. They are currently controlled by the Xuan Yang Sect using Xuan Yang Pills.]
It's the Xuan Yang Sect again.
In the original owner's memories, the Xuan Yang Sect was recognized as one of the most evil sects, and it usually kept a deep secret and rarely operated in the martial arts world.
"The fact that this information can be connected suggests that I have the ability to see objects or other people's information and secrets."
Xiao Xuan calmed down and made a decision immediately.
He dipped his little finger lightly into the bowl and then flicked it out.
"There's a flying insect in this bowl; it's really an eyesore."
After saying that, Xiao Xuan glanced at Wang Hong with a playful expression, then drank the wine in one gulp and showed the empty bowl to Lei Long and the others.
"Hahaha!"
Lei Long chuckled loudly. From the moment Xiao Xuan discovered his abilities until now, only a few breaths had passed, so it was naturally not enough for him and Su Qing to become suspicious.
The others in the room had no reason to suspect him; they just thought Xiao Xuan was being overly dramatic, and some even thought he was deliberately provoking Wang Hong.
Xiao Xuan, on the other hand, could only try his best to relax his tense body.
Now that he had discovered the secret of these two people, he naturally couldn't give himself away, otherwise, given their martial arts skills, he would surely die.
As for why he had to drink the poisoned wine, Xiao Xuan actually had no choice.
If I don't drink it, it will arouse suspicion, that much is certain.
But the most important point is that this wine had already been drunk once before Xiao Xuan transmigrated here.
The poison has already entered the body; what's done is done, and the only option left is to find an antidote later.
"Sigh, when you transmigrate to a martial arts world, shouldn't you start with an unparalleled martial arts skill and then sweep everything aside? Instead, I've been given two bowls of poisoned wine."
Xiao Xuan muttered to himself, but he knew that complaining was useless.
From this moment on, we must be extremely vigilant and find that slightest, almost imperceptible opportunity to save our lives.
"Chief Lei, now can you tell me about this opportunity you spoke of?"
After everyone was seated, the first person to speak was a balding, thin old man sitting to Lei Long's right, who had a relatively kind face.
Xiao Xuan had some impression of this person, but still used his special ability to conjure words on him.
Wei Ziheng (Six Realms)
[Known in the martial arts world as "Old Man Crane of the Sea," the master of Crane Island.]
"No secrets?"
Xiao Xuan shook his head. Everyone has secrets, so why should he be an exception?
He had discovered the secret in the wine first, and then the secret of Lei Long and the others. This was probably because he hadn't triggered the conditions yet, or because he wasn't very familiar with Wei Ziheng.
To test it out, Xiao Xuan turned to look at the burly man directly opposite him.
【Sha Peng (Four Realms)】
[Known in the martial arts world as "The Riverbird," a wandering swordsman.]
"If that's the case, there's even less information about this person."
Xiao Xuan stared intently at Sha Peng, trying to discern something more, but still came up empty-handed.
When he looked at Wang Hong, he couldn't get any more information and even felt a headache coming on.
"What's going on? Is there a limit to the number of attempts?"
Xiao Xuan continued to look at the silent Zhang man beside Wang Hong, but to no avail.
The man noticed Xiao Xuan's gaze, but he ignored it and instead followed up on He Haiweng's words by asking:
"Chief, can you tell us now? What exactly is this opportunity that finally gives me a chance to show my true abilities?"
Faced with a barrage of questions from the crowd, Lei Long and Su Qing exchanged a glance and then nodded.
"Alright! Then I'll explain to everyone!"
This might not seem like much to others, but it was a different story for Xiao Xuan. He could clearly see that Lei Long only dared to speak after receiving a signal from Su Qing, proving that the information given by his cheat system was absolutely correct.
Xiao Xuan smiled slightly and also pricked up his ears to listen to Lei Long's explanation.
What kind of opportunity could make the Xuan Yang Sect value this so much, promising a large sum of money to gather these people together, and even resorting to poisoning to control them?
The guests present all looked on with curiosity.
Lei Long seemed to savor the moment before lowering his voice and asking, "Do any of you know of the Immortal of Ingenuity?"
"The Ingenious Immortal?!" Old Crane Sea's eyes lit up. "Are you talking about the founder of the Thunderbolt Hall, the one who ventured into the martial world with the founding emperor seventy or eighty years ago, and then disappeared from the martial world?"
"We haven't heard that name in decades!"
Wang Hong also stood up in surprise. The Great Ning Kingdom had only been established for sixty or seventy years. His generation had grown up listening to the legends of the founding emperor.
However, not everyone in the house was familiar with this story.
Xiao Xuan, Sha Peng, and another handsome young man sitting next to the former still looked bewildered.
"I've heard of this ingenious immortal, but I don't know much about his story."
"Yes," the handsome young man nodded, "Please elaborate."
Several elderly people in the room exchanged glances, and Wei Ziheng, known as "Crane Sea Elder," spoke first:
"Talented people emerge in every generation, each leading the way for twenty years."
Moreover, it contains anecdotes from when the founding emperor was still a prince, which are now often avoided, and naturally no one mentions them anymore.
By the time of Young Master Xiao and Young Master Gu, the legends of the Seven Great Sects and the Five Greats will likely only remain in the martial arts world.
"Indeed."
Xiao Xuan nodded politely. The original owner's memories did not contain any legends about the founding emperor or the mechanical immortal, only rumors about the seven major sects and the five great masters.
The Seven Great Sects refer to the seven most powerful sects in the Central Plains martial arts world: Dao Xuan Sect, Shaolin Temple, Xianxia Sect, Wanjian Villa, Juesha Sect, Beggars' Sect, and Golden Arches.
The Five Greats are naturally the five strongest people in the martial arts world, determined by the Xinglong Mountain Sword Tournament held every five years.
"The Seven Great Sects and the Five Great Masters..." The refined-looking man surnamed Gu raised an eyebrow, pondered for a moment, and then nodded. "That's right, that's right..."
He Haiweng continued, "But what you don't know is that Shaolin Temple used to be called Secret Treasure Temple, and Golden Arches used to be called Six Doors. As for the other five major sects, before the founding emperor and the Ingenious Immortal appeared, they weren't even considered first-rate sects."
