The timely arrival of Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun made the situation on the scene even more intense.

The gathering of the Five Unmatches of the World, with three of them present, had not happened in many years.

Ever since the Five Unmatches were determined, there had never been a gathering of more than two. But now, with three present, along with top masters like Northern Martial Zen and Prince Wan Yan, the Shen Family Manor was enough to shock the entire nation.

"Senior Shen!" Ye Qing hurriedly led Li Bing'en to Shen Tianjun's side. With Shen Tianjun here, it was like having a pillar of support. As for what exactly had happened at the Shen Family Manor, it was no longer his concern with Shen Tianjun present.

Seeing Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun, Li Bing'en was evidently very excited, standing behind Shen Tianjun and giggling foolishly nonstop. This further confirmed to Ye Qing that the one who had taught Li Bing'en martial arts was indeed Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun.

Northern Martial Zen and Prince Wan Yan, however, frowned deeply, both looking grim. They had already breached the rules of the Shen Family Manor by intercepting Ye Qing here earlier. When Helian Tiehua and Prince Nalan were here, they were already incredibly anxious. Now, with the actual Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun also present, they were even more terrified. If Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun wanted to cause trouble for them, how would they handle it?

"Brother Shen!" Prince Nalan cupped his hands towards Shen Tianjun, and Helian Tiehua similarly greeted Shen Tianjun.

"If it's not Brother Shen, could it be that Bloody Monk?" Prince Nalan looked at Helian Tiehua and laughed, "Could it be that Bloody Monk has also come?"

Helian Tiehua shook his head calmly and said, "The one who just made that noise was Ye Qing."

"Oh?" Prince Nalan gasped. When Northern Martial Zen and Prince Wan Yan spoke of this earlier, he thought they were deceiving him. Now that Helian Tiehua also said so, he had to believe it. He knew Helian Tiehua would not lie.

Could it be that the one who just emitted that long howl was really Ye Qing?

Prince Nalan glanced at Ye Qing nearby. He had met Ye Qing in the Capital before, and naturally understood Ye Qing's strength. Though Ye Qing was still young, having such strength was impressive. However, he knew clearly that with Ye Qing's strength, it was impossible for him to emit such a long howl.

It should be noted that to produce such a long howl, powerful inner strength is required as support. And this inner strength takes time to accumulate. Helian Tiehua was reputed to be the most gifted among the Five Unmatches, reaching his current level only with five or six decades of inner strength. Ye Qing, not yet thirty, could not possibly possess such inner strength, even if he started practicing inner strength from the womb!

Prince Nalan was full of doubts. If these words had not come from Helian Tiehua, he definitely would not have believed it.

"What is going on?" Prince Nalan asked with curiosity.

Helian Tiehua shook his head. He himself did not know what was going on. When he heard Ye Qing make that long howl, he too was quite surprised, filled with the same doubts as Prince Nalan.

Prince Nalan turned his head towards Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun, but Shen Tianjun also shrugged and shook his head to indicate his ignorance.

At this, Prince Nalan was even more baffled. He whispered, "This matter is indeed strange. Could it be that Nephew Ye also possesses inner strength that can rival the Five Unmatches?"

"Ah?" Ye Qing was startled, looking at Prince Nalan in astonishment. He did not understand what Prince Nalan meant at all.

Seeing Ye Qing's expression, Prince Nalan was even more puzzled. It was clear that even Ye Qing himself did not know what was happening. Yet, this incident was real, Ye Qing's inner strength earlier was not even inferior to Helian Tiehua. What exactly was going on?

"Let's not dwell on this matter for now," Shen Tianjun smiled and said, "All of you are guests visiting my Shen Family Manor. Standing outside like this is not proper hospitality. Why don't you come in, sit down, and have some tea? The journey must have been tiring for everyone."

"Very well!" Helian Tiehua nodded directly.

Although Prince Nalan was still troubled inside, he restored his normal expression and smiled, "That's best."

After speaking, he glanced at Northern Martial Zen and Prince Wan Yan beside him and smiled, "What do you two think?"

Seeing that Shen Tianjun did not intend to hold them accountable, Northern Martial Zen and Prince Wan Yan were just feeling relieved. Who would have known that Prince Nalan would shift the topic directly to them, and everyone at the scene, including Shen Tianjun, looked at the two of them, making them instantly embarrassed.

"Since you have come, you are guests. Why don't you both come to the Shen Family Manor for a while?" Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun said with a faint smile: "However, I still trouble Northern Brother to first withdraw the people from the manor entrance. After all, it is the only road leading to our Shen Family Manor. If there is any obstruction, it might not be good. If word gets out, it could be perceived as if our Shen Family Manor is unwilling to host guests and deliberately blocking people outside."

Shen Tianjun's words made the two of them breathe a sigh of relief. Northern Martial Zen was even more embarrassed, hurriedly cupping his fists and bowing, saying: "This matter is indeed a result of my lack of consideration. If there's any offense, a certain Northerner here apologizes to everyone, and I hope Brother Shen and Brother Helian will forgive me!"

Northern Martial Zen only mentioned Shen Tianjun and Helian Tiehua, deliberately omitting Prince Nalan, indicating his dissatisfaction with Prince Nalan. After all, since Prince Nalan appeared, he had been putting them in difficult positions, first forcing them up the mountain, and just now shifting the topic to them. He had long been dissatisfied with Prince Nalan.

Prince Nalan smiled faintly, as if he did not understand Northern Martial Zen's words, just giving him a deep look.

Being stared at by Prince Nalan made Northern Martial Zen feel uneasy. However, he still stood firm, meeting Prince Nalan's gaze without showing any hint of weakness.

Prince Wan Yan observed quietly from the side, not saying a word, because he didn't want to make enemies with anyone. Compared to Northern Martial Zen, Prince Wan Yan was more smooth and cunning, which was the difference between the two.

"Since you have come, you are guests. If there is any inadequacy, it can only be said that Mr. Shen failed to attend properly, so why should Northern Brother apologize?" Shen Tianjun laughed and continued: "However, there is indeed one thing that I must discuss with Northern Brother."

"Feel free to speak, Brother Shen!" Northern Martial Zen hurriedly replied.

"I know about the feud between Northern Brother and Brother Li San of the Li Family, so Northern Brother has always sought out Li Family members to spar with. For a martial artist, this is understandable. However..." Shen Tianjun paused, looking at Northern Martial Zen, solemnly saying: "Sparring is fine, but using the strong to bully the weak or using many to overpower few is not appropriate, nor does it align with the spirit of us martial artists."

If Shen Tianjun had said such words right from the beginning, Northern Martial Zen would have certainly been unconvinced. However, since Shen Tianjun didn't hold him accountable for the matter with Ye Qing, this alone made him feel touched and unexpectedly respectful towards Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun. Now that Shen Tianjun spoke these words, he only felt a sense of righteousness emanating from Shen Tianjun, and no one could refute it. Because Shen Tianjun himself stood by these principles.

"What Brother Shen said is very true!" Northern Martial Zen nodded slowly, saying: "This lesson will surely be remembered by me!"

"That's good." Shen Tianjun smiled faintly, glancing at Prince Wan Yan as if casually. This glance, though not deliberate, made Prince Wan Yan shiver from the heart.

Northern Martial Zen personally apologized, taking responsibility for the matter, and Shen Tianjun actually forgave him. Yet Prince Wan Yan, who hadn't said a word on the side, found himself in Shen Tianjun's disfavor.

Shen Tianjun said nothing further but led everyone to the Shen Family Manor. At the Shen Family Manor, everything was brightly decorated, everyone busy and bustling, seemingly very lively. Moreover, the manor had already gathered quite a few people, many of whom were strangers, not members of the Shen Family.

Seeing Ye Qing arrive, many people from the Shen Family Manor gestured to him happily. After all, Ye Qing was practically the savior of the entire Shen Family Manor, and the Shen family people were deeply grateful to him, comparable to the feelings towards the people from Sha Men.

Ye Qing followed behind Shen Tianjun, finding it inconvenient to inquire about the situation directly, so he simply followed Shen Tianjun to the Shen Family Hall first.

Inside the hall, three people were already seated, with Old Madame Shen sitting at the head, casually chatting with them. It was clear that these three people were of significant status, requiring Old Madame Shen to personally entertain them.

Seeing Shen Tianjun enter, the three immediately turned to look. Upon seeing Helian Tiehua and Prince Nalan entering behind, their expressions visibly changed, showing that they recognized Helian Tiehua and Prince Nalan.

"Allow me to introduce." Shen Tianjun smiled faintly, introducing the three in the room to the others who had just entered.

Ye Qing listened attentively from the side, learning that these three were named Huang Yidao, Li Tianyi, and Du Longwang. Judging by Northern Martial Zen and Prince Wan Yan's expressions, Ye Qing could guess that the strength of these three was definitely not weak, at least not much inferior to that of Northern Martial Zen and Prince Wan Yan.

With guests like Northern Martial Zen, Prince Wan Yan, Helian Tiehua, and Prince Nalan—such peak masters—along with these three masters inside, the Shen Family Manor had practically gathered the top experts of Huaxia. What exactly was happening at the Shen Family Manor?

After introducing everyone, Shen Tianjun invited them to sit down, while requesting Old Madame Shen to take Ye Qing and Li Bing'en to the back to rest. Others who came were guests, but for Ye Qing, coming here was almost like returning home. Furthermore, as the people in the front were seniors, it would not have been convenient for Ye Qing to stay there.

This arrangement suited Ye Qing just fine, as he intended to find someone to inquire about what exactly was happening at the Shen Family Manor to gather so many people.
