CHAPTER 619 NOT FROM THE MARTIAL ARTS WORLD
Ye Shan went straight to point and asked this question in a low voice without hesitation. His gaze was very grim as he stared right into Jiang Ning's eyes.
"That's right,” Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed and didn't intend to hide this. He nodded and answered honestly.
He already knew what level Ye Shan's ability was at after sparring with him earlier.
He was at grandmaster level!
Nobody would have imagined that a rundown martial arts academy in an old part of the city would be hiding a grandmaster level fighter who had trained in boxing for the past few decades.
After that round of sparring, they both knew what each other was capable of.
But while Jiang Ning knew Ye Shan's limits, Ye Shan didn't know Jiang Ning's limit.
Ye Shan didn't expect Jiang Ning to reply so simply. He didn't know what to say.
He looked at Jiang Ning for ten full seconds and took a deep breath.
"You're in big trouble."
Jiang Ning replied calmly, "Is that so? I didn't know."
"You are very powerful and you might be even more powerful than a grandmaster. But there are many highly skilled fighters hiding in the martial arts world, and it's beyond your imagination," Ye Shan scoffed without holding back. "Did you think it's impressive to be at grandmaster level? Ha, you've just not seen enough of the world!”
The martial arts world?
It had been a long time since he heard this term.
Of course Jiang Ning knew that this martial arts world existed. Many martial artists were hiding away from the public eye, and many of these highly skilled fighters were in the city and living in modernity. They weren't hiding in some deep mountain or forest.
That martial arts world had not disappeared. It just existed in a different form.
Just like Ye Shan - he was a highly skilled fighter, but he continued to stay in this rundown martial arts academy and lived quietly.
If Ye Shan wanted to, he could have easily become an honored guest at a powerful family in the north!
"Martial arts fighters are just low profile but they have not disappeared completely. News of four grandmasters dying in Shenghai has made its rounds in the martial arts world and I thought they were just rumors. But after meeting you today..."
Given Jiang Ning's ability, killing four grandmasters might be difficult, but not impossible.
He had such a terrifying ability at a very young age, but that wasn't necessarily a
good thing.
"I didn't expect Uncle Ye to be so familiar with the affairs of the martial arts world," said Jiang Ning with a smile.
Ye Shan's face turned red and he scoffed. "I'm not from the martial arts world, but I'm surrounded by it."
He glared at Jiang Ning unhappily.
If he hadn't misunderstood Jiang Ning earlier and felt apologetic, he wouldn't have bothered to say so much.
"One of the grandmasters you killed is from the Northern High Kick Sect, a descendant from the school of Twelve Routines Springing Leg. His name is Tan Feng. Now that he's dead, he has probably ruined the reputation of the entire Northern High Kick Sect, and they'll definitely make trouble for you!" This content is © .
Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, but there wasn't a trace of worry on his face.
"The fight between the Southern Fists and the Northern Kicks has never stopped. Did you think that there would be fewer martial artists in this modern and developed city?"
Ye Shan snorted, "You little punk, you're in deep trouble! I'm warning you, make sure you don't get Qingwu into trouble, otherwise...otherwise I won't let you off!"
But after thinking about it, he couldn't defeat Jiang Ning in a fight, so there was no way to teach him a lesson either.
He was impressed that Jiang Ning had achieved this level of fighting ability at such a young age, but he had been too flashy about it, so if those martial artists hiding in the city found out, it wouldn't be anything good.
He felt that it was better if Ye Qingwu kept a distance from Jiang Ning.
"Wait a minute," Jiang Ning suddenly stretched an arm out to stop Ye Shan from talking as if he hadn't heard anything. He turned to the back of the house and sniffed, "Uncle Ye, do you smell that? It smells amazing!"
Ye Shan was completely stunned.
