Chapter 964 - Forcing The Old Master To Show Himself!

“Sorry, I can’t find anything.” Li Ji’s apologetic voice sounded.

“You can’t find anything?” Fang Qiu’s heart sank, and he frowned deeply.

How could they not find him?

The government had access to any resources. How could they not find him?

Li Ji said, “We have employed all our authority, but failed to find anything. There is only one possibility.”

“What is it?” asked Fang Qiu.

Li Ji took a deep breath and said, “The classified level is too high, which is far beyond our clearance.”

This was the first time his superior had encountered such a situation. At that time, he was also stupefied.

Hearing that, Fang Qiu instantly understood.

The matter that the old master was doing was extremely profound, and the secret behind it was also closely guarded. It was impossible for officials at the normal level to find anything about him.

Fang Qiu asked, “Is there any other way?”

“If you want to find him as fast as you can, I can’t help you.” Li Ji said with a wry smile, “We can only report to the higher authorities, but we don’t know if they are willing to reveal it, and we can’t be sure when we can get it.”

Hearing that, Fang Qiu frowned heavily.

A crazy idea occurred to him.

He gritted his teeth and said, “Okay, thank you. I’ll handle it myself.”

“I’m very sorry,” Li Ji apologized sincerely.

Fang Qiu said that it was fine. He hung up the phone, and there was a flash of madness in his eyes.

That crazy idea was to send a post on the Wulin forum!

He believed that as a practitioner in Wulin, the old master must have been paying attention to the Wulin online forum.

He thought to himself, “Old master, since you won’t show up, I’ll force you to show yourself.”

As soon as he thought of it, he did it.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Fang Qiu immediately used his laptop to log into John Doe’s account on the Wulin online forum and then swiftly typed on the keyboard with both hands.

After a short while, a new post appeared.

“Old master, I want to see you!” The moment this post appeared, it drew the attention of many people in no time.

At first, everyone thought that this was an ordinary post without any value. However, when they saw that the person who posted it was John Doe, they immediately focused on it.

Soon, everyone made the post to the top of the forum’s front page.

Under these circumstances, as the number of people who saw this post increased, more and more people began to get curious.

“John Doe’s post?”

“What the f*ck, who is the old master?”

“How awesome is this person? John Doe actually calls him old master.”

“Does this old master represent the force behind John Doe?”

“Finally, is the person behind John Doe coming out?”

Not only ordinary martial arts practitioners, but all the forces in Wulin also took it seriously as the post appeared.

They had been trying to find out John Doe’s background countless times, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not find anything. They did not expect that John Doe would personally send such a post. How could they let go of such a good opportunity to find out John Doe’s background?

Even the members of the Four Great Families were very confused.

“The old master?” When Diwu Mingchuan heard the news, he immediately frowned and said with a puzzled face, “There is no one in Wulin with the code name—old master.”

“Old master?” Diwu Qian sat next to Diwu Mingchuan and muttered with a frown, “I haven’t heard of anyone with the code name, old master, in Wulin, but John Doe wouldn’t appear on the Wulin forum easily. Every time he shows up, it will cause a serious event. Since he took the initiative to send an invitation to meet him this time, it means that the old master he mentioned is not someone he can meet at will.”

Diwu Mingchuan nodded and said, “That’s right. The only thing we can get from John Doe now is that the person he is looking for is not a young man. It’s very likely that he is an old man.”

Diwu Qian chimed in, “John Doe is not weak. If even he has to respectfully call the man old master, then the old master’s strength is very likely to be stronger than John Doe’s.”

Diwu Mingchuan narrowed his eyes and said, “There’s another possibility. The old master may not be stronger than John Doe, but his seniority must be higher than John Doe. In terms of seniority, the old master is likely to be a member of a force. But it’s strange that if there is such a force, John Doe shouldn’t have to find him in this way.”

Diwu Qian smiled wryly, “I can’t figure it out.”

There were simply too many contradictions.

Diwu Mingchuan laughed and said, “You don’t have to think about it if you can’t figure it out. It’s enough for us to know two things. One is that John Doe is not a bad guy, and the other is that we have already formed a good relationship with him.”

In the Qian family’s courtyard in the capital, on the first floor of a highly modern villa, Patriarch Qian, who was wearing ancient leather armor, was playing chess with a woman sitting opposite him next to a small pool that kept overflowing water like a fountain.

Beside the old man, Qian Xiao, who was handsome as ever, was sitting respectfully on one side, watching the chess game.

“The person John Doe is looking for.” Patriarch Qian put down a chess piece and said, “Have you found him?”

“No.” Qian Xiao immediately shook his head and said, “No one in Wulin uses the code name of ‘old master’ at all. Besides, I’ve asked someone to investigate it carefully, but we still can’t find any clues. It seems that this person doesn’t exist in Wulin at all. It’s simply like John Doe imagined it himself.”

“No.” Patriarch Qian shook his head and said, “It’s not that there isn’t such a man, but that we don’t have the power to investigate this man!”

Patriarch Qian turned his head and said with a serious face, “The Huaxia Wulin is not as simple as it seems on the surface. The real Wulin is completely beyond your imagination. Originally, Wulin had been peaceful for decades, but since John Doe appeared, Wulin begins to have a sensation.”

Qian Xiao nodded and continued to listen respectfully.

“The turbulence at the beginning was like a small stone. Although it fell into the pond like Wulin, it only caused a few ripples on the surface.”

Speaking of this, Patriarch Qian gently let out a sigh and said, “I have a feeling that the stagnant situation in Wulin will soon be broken by a huge stone. Next time, it may be terrifying waves!”

“Go on. Continue to investigate. No matter what method you can use, it would be good to be able to find even the slightest bit of information.”

“Yes!”

In the courtyard of an ancient pavilion in the Zhan family, Elder Zhan was lying on a mat, holding a wine gourd in his hand. His nose was red from drinking.

“Grandpa.” Zhan Lin came in, called him, then casually found a place to sit down and said, “I got some news.”

Elder Zhan asked, “What news?”

“John Doe is looking for someone,” Zhan Lin said. “He has sent a post on the Wulin forum, which says, ‘Old master, I want to see you.’”

“Whoosh.” Elder Zhan, who was originally lying on the mat, suddenly straightened up. His drunken expression instantly disappeared and was replaced by a calm look.

For an expert like him, alcohol couldn’t make him drunk at all.

A trace of doubt flashed across Elder Zhan’s eyes as he murmured, “Old master? Is it the force hidden behind John Doe?”

Zhan Lin shook her head and said, “I don’t know. As soon as we got the news, our family sent someone to check it out, but we found nothing.”

Without hesitation, Elder Zhan immediately said, “Check on it. Continue to check on it. We must keep a close eye on John Doe’s every move and all the information related to him on the Wulin online forum. Don’t let go of any piece of information. Since John Doe voluntarily exposed it, we must seize this opportunity. This is the only chance we can find out about him!”

“Okay.” Zhan Lin nodded.

In the Xi family, a refined young man was sitting on the ground. He was wearing Chinese-style clothing. With delicate facial features, he gave off a refreshing and attractive feeling.

Opposite the young man, a woman was also sitting on the ground, slowly fiddling with a string of buddha beads in her hand.

The woman was none other than Xi Fengling.

The young man said, “We found nothing.”

“Old master…” Xi Fengling nodded gently and said, “Now, the whole Wulin is in an uproar because of this old man, isn’t it?”

“Yes.” The young man nodded and said, “The Qian Family, the Zhan Family, the Diwu Family, the Pear Garden, and other forces are all inquiring about the old master. Some large forces even come to us to buy news. The reward they offer is very tempting.”

Xifeng Ling shook her head and said, “Our family doesn’t rely on this to make money. However, since you guys can’t find any information about this person, other people can’t find it either. Now that you can’t find anything, don’t look into it anymore. Some news might bring trouble to you once you get it.”

“Yes.” The young man bowed and nodded to Xi Fengling while sitting, and then he stood up and left.

“It seems that John Doe has got the Heaven Treasure.” In the Pear Garden, as soon as he received the news, Yun Yangzi laughed and said in a low voice, “It’s the eighth Heaven Treasure, Ambergris Grass. If he didn’t get it, how would John Doe have the time to send a post on the Wulin forum? However, this old master is worth paying attention to. I wonder if he will be the same as the old man in our Pear Garden. Perhaps he’s even more formidable?

At the same time, people were discussing on the Wulin forum.

“Did John Doe get the Heaven Treasure?”

“I haven’t heard anything about a big battle or anything unusual in any place. Did John Doe really obtain the Heaven Treasure so easily?”

“It seems that he might have got it, otherwise, how would he be in the mood to send a post here?”

“Who is this old man?”

“Who is the old master?”

“He might be really powerful since John Doe calls him old master.”

“Do you think this old master is the mysterious force behind John Doe?”

After the post was sent, Fang Qiu kept refreshing and reading the reply.

He was waiting.

He was waiting for the old master to reply.

It turned out that everyone was discussing who this old master was, and a small part of them was also discussing whether he really got the eighth Heaven Treasure.

He kept reading.

All of a sudden, Fang Qiu stopped refreshing when seeing an inconspicuous reply among the numerous comments.

Looking at this short reply, he actually burst into tears in an instant!

His eyes grew suddenly misty.

He kept staring at this short reply.
