"Did Ye Zheng tell you anything when you went to the Ye family?"
Qi Wufu didn't immediately answer Jiang Wuming's question, but instead asked back.
"He told me..."
Although he didn't know why Qi Wufu asked, Jiang Wuming truthfully told Qi Wufu everything he had learned from Ye Zheng.
Because, deep down, he trusted Qi Wufu more.
"Ye Zheng didn't lie to you. Back then, after your mother died, the overseas martial artist secretly controlling the Zhao family died, so they didn't continue the investigation."
Qi Wufu first affirmed Ye Zheng's words, then changed the subject: "However, not investigating does not mean it's impossible to determine the mastermind."
"The mastermind is Anthony @ Roman?"
Jiang Wuming uttered a name, killing intent flashing in his eyes.
"Mhm."
Qi Wufu nodded, a flicker of anger in his eyes. "Your father has many enemies overseas, and those enemies are very powerful. However, the only one who dared to extend his claws into the Dragon Country and target your mother is Anthony @ Roman. This is because the Roman family controls the God of War Hall, and Anthony is one of the most important members of the Roman family."
This time, Jiang Wuming did not speak, only quietly clenched his fists, a terrifying killing intent emanating from him!
His judgment that the mastermind was Anthony @ Roman was also based on this.
Only the Roman family, controlling the God of War Hall, would dare to incur the wrath of the Dragon Country's Military Department and murder Ye Jinmei!
"Wuming, Anthony @ Roman's legs were crippled by your father back then, yet he was still able to become a core member of the Roman family and hold a crucial position in the God of War Hall. He is a very insidious enemy, and he is surrounded by experts. You cannot be rash."
Qi Wufu sensed the killing intent emanating from Jiang Wuming and reminded him.
Although he knew that Jiang Wuming was not a reckless person and always planned everything, Jiang Wuming also possessed the hot-bloodedness and courage of a young man in his prime, especially when it involved loved ones!
After all, Jiang Wuming had almost gone against the Military Department for Su Shiyun's sake!
"Don't worry, I won't act impulsively to seek revenge. I know that my current strength is not enough to take revenge, but one day, I will personally visit the God of War Hall and the Roman family and crush that bastard Anthony!"
Jiang Wuming nodded gently and spoke slowly, anger and killing intent flashing in his eyes.
Hearing Jiang Wuming's resolute words and feeling his anger and killing intent, Qi Wufu fell silent.
The revenge for his mother's death was irreconcilable!
In his opinion, given the young man's personality, he would definitely not let Anthony @ Roman go, even if he was the son of the God of War Hall's leader!
"By the way, Wuming, the Global Martial Arts Convention will be held in half a month. Do you know about this convention?"
Qi Wufu asked again after seeing that Jiang Wuming's emotions had improved slightly.
"I've heard of it, but I don't know much about it," Jiang Wuming replied, calming himself down.
"The Global Martial Arts Convention is held every five years and is the grandest event in the global martial arts world. Martial arts powerhouses from all over the world send representatives to participate.
The Global Martial Arts Convention primarily has three main agenda items.
The first is the martial arts theory seminar, which is mainly attended by martial arts masters and experts from other fields. They analyze the situation of contemporary martial artists, research how to make martial artists stronger quickly, and how to help Five-Star War Gods break through to that legendary realm.
The second is the God of War Hall's council meeting, which will study plans for humanity to deal with extraterrestrial enemies and make decisions on certain matters.
The third is the martial arts sparring. It is divided into the Genius Group and the War God Group. Martial artists from all over the world spar according to their strength. The champion of each group will receive corresponding rewards."
Qi Wufu first introduced the Global Martial Arts Convention to Jiang Wuming, then said, "According to the information obtained so far, the reward for the Genius Group at this Global Martial Arts Convention is a set of cultivation techniques related to the spiritual domain. You possess an extremely rare spiritual power talent, and if you obtain this cultivation technique, your strength will be greatly improved."
"Spiritual cultivation techniques? Do such techniques really exist?"
Jiang Wuming's heart stirred.
He had always wanted to cultivate his spiritual power domain to the tenth or even eleventh level, and then break through to the Two-Star War God realm, but the cultivation methods he currently mastered made it difficult to achieve this.
"Yes. That cultivation technique comes from extraterrestrial enemies. It was obtained by the God of War Hall's leader from a powerful extraterrestrial martial artist after killing him. It is now collected in the God of War Hall and is one of the highest secret scriptures of the God of War Hall."
As the Marshal of the Dragon Country's Military Department, Qi Wufu also held a crucial position in the God of War Hall, giving him access to many secrets.
"Marshal Qi, will the descendants of my father's old enemies participate in the Global Martial Arts Convention and the martial arts sparring?" Jiang Wuming asked.
"Yes."
Qi Wufu nodded and said, "You should know that in addition to breaking Anthony @ Roman's legs, your father also killed eleven martial arts prodigies back then. The families of those martial arts prodigies are the top martial arts forces in the world. The strongest successors of those martial arts forces will definitely not miss the Global Martial Arts Convention, and they will certainly participate in the martial arts sparring.
In fact, not only them, but also the Dragon Gate, Kunlun, Buddhist Sect, and even the Military Department of the Dragon Country will send participants.
Furthermore, I will attend this conference as the head of the Dragon Country's delegation, so you don't need to worry about safety."
"Marshal Qi, I'll participate!"
Jiang Wuming gave a very crisp answer.
Compared to the cultivation technique related to the spiritual domain, he hoped more to encounter the strongest successors of his father's old enemies in the martial arts sparring!
Especially, the strongest successor of the Roman family!
"Good!"
Qi Wufu was overjoyed.
He hoped that Jiang Wuming would participate in the Global Martial Arts Convention, not to show off the national prestige like a bamboo slip, but to allow Jiang Wuming to feel glory and responsibility through his participation, so that the seed of joining the Dragon Country's Military Department in Jiang Wuming's heart would sprout and grow, preparing for the potential war that might come in the future.
...
In the grand hall of an ancient castle in Europa, the fireplace crackled, illuminating the hall.
In the hall, Anthony @ Roman sat in his wheelchair as usual, with two young girls kneeling at his feet, massaging his legs.
"Sylvie, you're here."
A moment later, a tall middle-aged man entered the hall. Anthony @ Roman smiled slightly and spoke first.
The man was his younger brother, Sylvie @ Roman, who possessed the strength of a Five-Star War God. He was the vice president of the God of War Hall's council and was also known as the successor of the Roman family.
"Anthony, are you crazy?"
Sylvie @ Roman walked directly opposite Anthony @ Roman and asked with a frown, "Why did you put that cultivation technique related to the spiritual domain as the reward for the Genius Group in this Global Martial Arts Convention martial arts sparring competition?
Have you considered what would happen if Jiang Zhan's son participated?
Jiang Zhan's son is a One-Star War God at the tenth level and possesses powerful spiritual power. He is invincible in the One-Star War God domain, and can even kill the overlords among Two-Star War Gods!
If he participates, no one will be his opponent. He will win the championship and obtain that reward!"
"I put that cultivation technique as the reward precisely to attract him to participate. If I were to use a metaphor, that set of cultivation techniques is my bait." Anthony @ Roman sneered.
"What do you mean?"
Hearing this, Sylvie @ Roman's pupils suddenly enlarged, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"My dear brother, I have already made arrangements. This martial arts sparring competition will be different from usual. As long as Jiang Zhan's bastard son participates, he will reasonably die in the martial arts sparring competition," Anthony @ Roman said sinisterly. "His corpse will become the Roman family's latest experimental subject."
"What have you arranged? Does Father know about this?"
Sylvie @ Roman was shocked. As the vice president of the God of War Hall's council, he was currently unaware of this matter.
"Of course, this matter has Father's approval."
Anthony @ Roman wore a sinister smile. "Besides, I can tell you a secret. Father will not only attend this convention, but he will also participate in the martial arts sparring."
"Wh... what?!"
Sylvie @ Roman was completely shocked. "What is Father trying to do?"
"The great Father wants to make the Dragon Country's martial arts world submit to our feet!"
Anthony @ Roman spoke word by word, his excitement evident in his tone, as if he could already see the scene of the Dragon Country's martial arts world, represented by Qi Wufu, submitting.
