Although Mount Emei was in turmoil at that time, its majestic posture was still the mountain forest where the Emei faction, one of the eight major schools of the rivers and lakes, gathered. Although its old head "Wuji Divine Palm" Liu Sifang is approaching his twilight years, his eldest disciple Liu Wanchun is in the ascendancy, and the power of the Emei faction he inherited is still undiminished.

"Qi Qi Liu Zhang! We received a martial arts post inviting our Emei faction to participate in the Huashan Fight on September 18! ”

"Where is the sacred post?" I saw Liu Wanchun sitting in the hall and asked.

"Back to Master Liu! The letter was not signed! ”

"Oh?!" Liu Wanchun couldn't help but be shocked, and paced and pondered: "The battle between the leaders of the martial arts alliance has always been invited in advance by the previous alliance leader, why didn't he sign it this time?" Could it be that the person who posted it was not Master Fashen? ”

"Master Liu!" I saw a warrior standing on top of the second chair, and said contemptuously: "It is said that this Huashan fight is a challenge to the Huashan faction by the killers of the Chang'an Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is better that we don't interfere!" ”

"The second brother is right!" Liu Wanchun nodded and replied: "Last year's Beijing Fight almost blew up our eight major factions in the rivers and lakes, who knows what new tricks they will play this time?" Go, though, we're still going! ”
