Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique-Chapter 738 - 220: Shouting_2
Chapter 738: Chapter 220: Shouting_2
Whether it was the sects of the Human Immortal Martial Path or the Mechanical martial arts, all knew of a figure named Link.
The reputation of Young Hero Link had even spread to several counties surrounding Danyang Prefecture, such as Tianshui County.
Once again, it was the intelligence system set up with the construction and development of branch outlets.
The extremely detailed information in Link’s hands came from this intelligence system.
Lastly, it was about how to restore his wizard’s strength and, through this trial, help Elise Clark.
Even though he was fully engrossed in role-playing and practicing the Human Immortal Martial Path, Link would not forget the real purpose of this journey.
Extensively researching information and adding his personal practice experience, Link believed that as long as he could break through the Hollow Void Stage and reach the legendary fifth stage of the Martial Way – the God Seeing Realm, he would be able to unlock the Sea of Consciousness, knowledge, and witchcraft then.
As for the method of passing the test, Link had some guesses.
That was to win the title of the World’s First Martial Arts Conference held in eight years, and become the world’s number one.
To overpower all martial artists of the Human Immortal Martial Path and Mechanical martial arts!
Link pulled his thoughts back and focused on the matter of Seventh Senior Sister Li Sisi’s puppy love.
Li Sisi’s sudden change in attitude towards him and the suspicious aspects of her falling into puppy love raised concerns.
That’s why Link investigated the matter.
It was under Link’s indirect prodding that the Master’s wife noticed her daughter’s abnormality and decisively sent her to the Mingxin Sword Sect.
As a secluded sect, the Mingxin Sword Sect was built in the mountains, almost isolated from the world.
In this way, even if Li Sisi had indeed been tricked by some evil methods, there could be some buffer.
Link intuitively felt that Li Sisi’s “puppy love” incident was just the beginning.
There was a force in the dark that had set its sights on the Octagon Martial Arts School.
Whether the opponent wanted to discredit the reputation of the Octagon Martial Arts School to hit the Human Immortal Martial Path, or coveted the industry of the Octagon Martial Arts School, Link couldn’t agree.
Not to mention the friendship built over ten years, just speaking of the help the Octagon Martial Arts School could give him in the challenge for the World’s Number One in eight years’ time, Link had to investigate the matter thoroughly and find out who was behind it.
Waiting to be killed or defending and counterattacking was not Link’s style.
“It seems I need to make a trip to the provincial city,”
He closed the files, spoke to himself, and made a decision.
If the mountain won’t come to me, I shall go to the mountain.
The opponent is hiding in the dark and doesn’t dare to act openly.
What Link needs to do is to drag the opponent into the sunlight and kill him with a single punch!
The next day.
After bidding farewell to his master and the master’s wife, Link set off alone, took a boat straight from Fuli County, and headed for the provincial city.
In terms of whereabouts, Link didn’t hide at all.
All the forces paying attention to the movements of the Octagon Martial Arts School could know when Link left, when he got on the boat, and when he arrived where.
If they want to do something, such as ambush him, it would be very convenient.
“Husband, will Clark run into danger?”
Watching the sailing ship go far, the master’s wife couldn’t help but worry.
Even if Link is mature beyond his years and is very determined, how could she not worry after raising him for ten years?
“Don’t worry, my lady. Even if there is any danger, it won’t be Clark’s, but the danger belonging to those who can’t help but come out and make trouble,”
Li Shuwen smiled faintly and spoke with full confidence.
“How so?”
The master’s wife’s beautiful eyes were fixed on Li Shuwen’s eyes, desperately wanting an explanation.
“Clark’s strength should be stronger than yours now,”
Li Shuwen whispered, saying the sentence only to his wife.
Looking around, the master’s wife did indeed find quite a few people with secretive activities at the dock.
Ever since Clark developed and expanded the martial arts school, the surroundings of the school always had the eyes and ears of other forces.
Seeing this, the master’s wife didn’t say anything more, holding Li Shuwen’s hand as they walked back to the martial arts school.
Whatever needed to be said could be whispered when the two were alone, it would be more private and more sincere.

Meanwhile.
Link’s journey went very smoothly, and no one came out to provoke him.
By nightfall the next day, the sailing ship had entered the dock of the provincial city.
“Junior Brother, over here!”
Knowing that Link would arrive this evening, the big brother Shi Gandang was quite excited.
He even personally went to the dock to welcome him today.
“Big brother, it’s been a long time,”
Link disembarked, calmly passing through the crowded crowd, walking towards Brother Shi.
“Haha… It’s been over half a year. The last time we saw each other was when you sent Seventh Senior Sister to study in the provincial city,” laughed Brother Shi. His tone suddenly got complex and heavy. He sighed, “Alas! I didn’t watch Seventh Senior Sister closely enough and something went wrong.”
“This matter has nothing to do with you, Brother,” Link said seriously, “More importantly, we are still not clear about what really happened with this case. We need to investigate.”
“So you came to the provincial city specifically to investigate this matter, didn’t you?” Brother Shi asked quickly.
“Indeed I am,” Link nodded in response.
“Just let me know if you need my help anywhere,” Brother Shi stated plainly. Then his tone changed, “But there’s no hurry with the investigation. Let’s go; I have arranged a feast to welcome you.”
As he finished speaking, Bishop Shi threw an arm around Link and dragged him towards a car parked outside the station.
Link didn’t resist; he followed Brother Shi’s momentum and approached the convoy of three beetle-like cars.
The two of them sat in the back seat of the middle car.
The convoy moved, heading towards the most luxurious hotel in the provincial city.
About half an hour later, the convoy entered a bustling urban area full of people from the nearby suburbs’ dock. It stopped in front of an brilliantly illuminated, magnificent hotel.
The disciples from the Martial Art School who got down from the first and the last cars held back the doormen rushing to greet them.
“Master, we’re here,” a youth dressed in strong attire, who was in the passenger seat of the central car along with the driver, opened the car doors for the two brothers.
“Let’s go Link. You didn’t get the chance to visit this place last time you came. Tonight, enjoy some delicacies and see the bustling life in the provincial city,” Brother Shi said as he walked towards the hotel, arm in arm with Link.
The lobby manager who noticed them early was waiting by the revolving door. He greeted with a professional smile, “Mr. Shi, the private room you booked is ready, this way please.”
“Let’s go, Link.”
Brother Shi first nodded to the lobby manager, then signaled Link with a glance, who was peering at the west corner of the lobby.
“Alright, Brother,” Link withdrew his gaze and followed Brother Shi to the second floor private room.
All the while, his mind was racing.
He had just arrived in the provincial city, without having started the investigation, and the suspect appeared in the same hotel where Brother Shi was hosting a feast. He was hiding in a corner, trying to quietly observe Link.
This was definitely not a coincidence.
The other party must have been tracking Link’s schedule.
However, they were a bit naive because they failed to cover their tracks and exposed themselves too soon.
With a quick thought, Link formed a discreet mark in the air that landed on the person hiding behind the pillar.
Then, he very carefully turned his attention to catching up with Brother Shi.
People always change.
Especially when there is a huge shift in their living conditions.
Brother Shi had been running a martial arts hall in the provincial city for five years. Despite not neglecting his martial arts practice, the dazzling nightlife and flourishing society of the city had become an obstacle for him to further progress.
Master Li Shuwen pointed this out to Brother Shi.
Link also subtly mentioned that it might be better to move the martial arts school to another place or return to Fuli County for a period of quiet training.
Brother Shi didn’t avoid the topic, neither did he withdraw from the provincial city.
He believed that the dazzling city life may be an obstacle in the path of martial arts, but it also helped him to harden his resolve.
As long as he could stick to his principles and not get swayed, he would definitely benefit a lot.
Thus, Brother Shi continued to hold down the fort in the provincial city.
The two brothers entered the private room and sat down for dinner.
As martial artists, they didn’t drink much.
Brother Shi’s “main course” for Link tonight was not a banquet.
Soon, a table full of delicious food was devoured by the two of them.
The disciples of the Martial Arts School who came along enjoyed themselves in the two adjacent private rooms.
“Link, let’s go…” Brother Shi was about to call Link to taste tonight’s “main course,” when he finished wiping off the grease on his lips with the napkin, but suddenly, someone stormed into the private room, looking quite angry.
The leader was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man, formally dressed, wearing a pair of gold framed glasses, presenting himself as extremely refined.
However, his attitude was extremely rude. He pointed at Link and asked ferociously, “Tell me, where have you hidden Sisi?”
