Hong Dali’s words gave everyone a shock. “What is 18 Palm Attacks to Defeat Dragons? And who is Hong Qigong?”

Geezer Wang quickly explained, “Old fellow, my name is Wang Daoming, not Hong Qigong.” He rubbed his chin and continued to speak, “But in actual fact, there really isn’t a name for this move. When my Master imparted this skill to me, he called it ‘Heavy Hand.’ There were only eight moves in all. If this move were used on a person, all his bones would break for sure. It’s a powerful move. However, I don’t use it much. But Young Master, 18 Palm Attacks sounds powerful. Too bad the number of moves doesn’t match up. How about we call it ‘Defeating Dragons Attack’? Doesn’t that sound good?”

As he said that, Mu Zixiao decisively pounced on him and hugged his leg again. “Master! Please, take me as your disciple!”

The crowd thought to themselves, “No matter what, he’s also a young master from an influent family similar to Young Master. He can really throw away his pride for the sake of learning martial arts.”

Geezer Wang shook his head promptly. “No! I don’t impart my skills so easily. Unless it’s Young Master Dali who wants to learn. You have too much of a temper. I have no wish to teach you in fear that you will accidentally kill someone. I cannot bear that kind of responsibility.”

Mu Zixiao rushed toward Hong Dali, put his hand around his shoulders, and started to suck up to him. “No! That will definitely not happen! Although we’re not real brothers, we are closer than real brothers! It would be no difference to impart your skills to him or to me!” He winked at Dali after he spoke. “Dali, isn’t that so?”

Hong Dali sniffed and said, “Oh. Anyway, I don’t care. Why don’t you just teach him, Geezer Wang? I can’t learn it anyway. It would be a pity to let the skills be lost.”

Geezer Wang hesitated. What Hong Dali said does make sense. The skills would be lost if I just brought it into the coffin with me. He nodded his head. “This… Alright. Since the Young Master said so, I suppose I could impart my skills to you. But listen carefully, I have to explain this to you first.”

Hearing that Geezer Wang had agreed, Mu Zixiao was in tears, nodding his head furiously. “Yes, please do.”

Geezer Wang started. “Firstly, after you learn my skills, you are not to use it for fights. You can use it for self-defense, or to train your body. If I ever hear that you used my skills to hurt or kill anyone, I will break your arms and legs even if it kills me!”

Mu Zixiao promptly nodded his head. “Yes, no problem! I promise to be more mellow. I will definitely not create any trouble for you!”

Geezer Wang continued, “Hm. Secondly, I’m not sure if your relationship with Young Master Dali is really that good. But since I’m under Young Master Dali now, you must be good to Young Master Dali. Regardless of whether it’s just bringing him tea and water, or if he is in danger, you have to assist him. Loyalty is the most important for people who learn martial arts. Would that be ok?”

“This…” Mu Zixiao thought of his family background. It was hard to tell how the relationship between the Hong Family and his own Family would become. Thus, he was slightly hesitant. But looking at it from another angle, he didn’t get involved in the family business much anyway. It should be no problem for him to protect Hong Dali. Thinking of that, he immediately agreed. “Okay! No problem! I might not be able to say much about other matters, but I should be able to make decisions for myself. I agree with this term!”

The next term was the last. Geezer Wang said, “Thirdly, as people who practice martial arts, we have to be able to take hardship and endure long periods of mundane guarding. To be able to endure years of practice is actually one of the simplest terms. It’s tough on normal people. But I can tell you have talent and a good body. This term should be easy for you.”

Hearing what he said, Hong Dali rubbed his nose. He had previously casually commented that Mu Zixiao was very talented and had good bone structure. He didn’t think that would be true.

Tang Muxin tugged on Hong Dali secretly, whispering, “Dali, hadn’t you already noticed that Mu Zixiao was suitable to practice martial arts. I remember you said that when you first met him.”

Hong Dali reluctantly shrugged his shoulders. “I was just saying it for fun…”

Tang Muxin: “…”

Mu Zixiao could be heard saying, “No problem! That’s no problem for me! I love practicing martial arts from a young age. I can train in the coldest winter and hottest summer!”

Geezer Wang bore an expert style. “En, you can call me Master then.”

Hearing the word “Master” from Geezer Wang, Mu Zixiao kneeled down in an instant and kowtowed trice. “Disciple Mu Zixiao pays respect to Master!”

Geezer Wang smiled and helped Mu Zixiao up. “Get up. In the future, you’re not to misuse your skills after you learn them from me. Did you hear me? Don’t cause any trouble!”

Mu Zixiao took out a card from his pocket and presented it. “Yes! I understand! This is a small token of appreciation. Please accept it if you don’t mind!”

A token of appreciation from his disciple should be accepted. Geezer Wang accepted it graciously and softly asked, “How much is in there?” At that moment, his glance was wretched and felt the packet with his fingers…

Mu Zixiao softly replied, “One million. Master, use this first. The password is 888888. If it’s not enough, I will give you more later!”

Geezer Wang was taken aback. Cough cough! Since he had decided to follow Hong Dali, he would have to be more open-minded. He made sure not to make a fool of himself and nodded. “En, I’ll accept it then.”

Now that everything was settled, Hong Dali laughed heartily and walked forward, aggressively patting Mu Zixiao’s shoulder. “Old Xiao, we belong to one family now!”

To be able to gain a highly skilled master, Mu Zixiao was elated. “That, that, haha!” No matter how he looked at Hong Dali, he seemed pleasing to his eyes. He was not just lucky, whoever followed him was lucky as well! Master Wang’s skills were definitely not a small matter!

Mu Zixiao was happy, but driver Old Wang watched this scene with sweat on his back.

Young Master Dali did not even know the man’s agenda but had so easily acquired a loyal follower whose background was almost equal to his own family. Seeing his obsession with martial arts, and that he was learning martial arts from Geezer Wang, it was rather beneficial to him. At least, he was aware of Mu Zixiao’s character. Since Mu Zixiao appeared before Hong Dali, the Hong Family had done a few checks. Mu Zixiao was sinister but did not bother about small matters. But one thing he was sure of was that he had never turned back on his own words.
