Yang Guo's movement technique was taught to him by Xiao Tian, so it was easy for him to climb on the surface of the water while the technique he learned was also known as the Ancient Tomb Hunting Technique, which was not a difficult technique for her.

"Master, is this person Yu Qiao who was reading the 'fish'?" Yang Guo looked at the spot where Wu Tie pressed his acupoint and asked curiously.

"Southern Emperor" Duan Zhihsing's four disciples, "Zhuoqiao", also had quite a big reputation, so it wasn't strange for Yang Guo to have heard of it.

"That's right," Xiao Tian nodded his head and said: "Wu San's whereabouts are unknown now, Zhu Zi Liu is helping Guo Jing with Xiangyang City to defend the city, and only this little bit of Cang Yu Yin and the axman of the four great disciples are still serving by Emperor Duan's side. It's just that I don't know if we'll have the chance to meet that axman this time!"

As for the former Iron Palm Sect's Sect Leader, Qiu Qianrou, who was almost as famous as Five Existences, Monk Ci currently, because he accidentally killed someone from Beggars' Union, he still didn't know where he was at the moment. Thus, Xiao Tian didn't mention anything.

"I heard that the martial arts of the four disciples under Young Master Duan are first-rate. I didn't expect that they would be easily overpowered by Master. Master's martial arts are truly unfathomable!" Yang Guo walked around Dian Cang and praised.

"Brat, be more sincere next time you flatter me," Xiao Tian glared at Yang Guo in annoyance, took the bamboo pole from Cang Yu's hands, and pulled the raft towards the other side of the river.

Only when Xiao Tian and the other two finally reached the shore, did Xiao Tian finally remove the hidden acupoint at the spot where he had pointed to, and he led Yang Guo and Xiao Long to the hut where Southern Emperor lived in seclusion.

Xiao Tian and the other two did not see the woodcutter until they arrived outside Southern Emperor's hut.

"Honorable guest, please forgive this old monk for not welcoming you." Outside the thatched cottage, a monk wearing a coarse robe with two long, white brows lowered from the corners of his eyes.

Although the old monk's brow had a hint of bitterness, he had a dignified expression on it.

"First Lamp Master," Xiao Tian had a good impression of Duan Zhihsing and immediately cupped his fist.

Within the Five Existences of the Central Plains, the person with the highest moral character was Southern Emperor.

As for Ouyang Feng and Hong Qigong, they didn't seem to have any personal feelings. Ouyang Feng was immersed in improving his own martial arts while Hong Qigong was playing the game. In comparison, this Emperor Duan seemed to have a slight advantage.

"Benefactor, you must be the famous Free and Unrestrained Sect's successor right?" Duan Zhihsing sized up Xiao Tian and said seriously.

"I am." Xiao Tian did not hide anything. The system's darned mission had not been completed yet, and Xiao Tian would not let go of any opportunity to raise his Free and Unrestrained Sect's prestige, even though he and Yang Guo were the only two people in the Free and Unrestrained Sect!

"Speaking of which, this old monk still has some ties with Free and Unrestrained Sect. Unfortunately, ever since the time Free and Unrestrained Sect Void Bamboo took control of Spirit Eagle Palace over a hundred years ago, the Free and Unrestrained Sect disappeared without a trace, and after that, with several upheavals, no Carefree Disciple was born. I never thought that this old monk would be able to see the Free and Unrestrained Sect disciple again after more than a hundred years," Duan Zhihsing said softly, with a reminiscent look in his eyes.

A look of understanding flashed past Xiao Tian's eyes. Duan Zhihsing was Duan Ying's grandson and it was normal for him to understand some things related to Free and Unrestrained Sect.

"Since I'm old, I like to reminisce the past and be laughed at by you." Duan Zhihsing's reminiscence quickly faded away as he said to Xiao Tian and the others, "I wonder why the three of you are here?"

"Right now, my Free and Unrestrained Sect and reputation are in decline and my inheritance is in disrepair. This little brat would like to ask Great Master to guide a useless disciple like me." Xiao Tian pointed at Yang Guo and smiled to Duan Zhihsing.

"This old monk had already decided not to fight with anyone. But since it's an old friend, let's spar for a bit." Duan Zhihsing thought for a while and finally nodded in agreement.

How could he not understand Xiao Tian's intention? He simply wanted to use the name of "Southern Emperor" to increase the prestige of his Free and Unrestrained Sect in the martial arts world. Even though Duan Zhihsing was slightly displeased, he did not reject Duan Zhihsing.

After all, it was as he said, he really did have some relationship with Free and Unrestrained Sect. If he was able to provide a bit of assistance to Xiao Tian in restoring his Free and Unrestrained Sect, he would be happy to serve as a foil.

"Many thanks, Master." Xiao Tian deeply bowed to Duan Zhihsing, then he smiled at Yang Guo, "Brat, I've already given you the opportunity. Take good advantage of yourself!"

"Yes, Master!" He knew the position of "Southern Emperor" Duan Zhihsing in Central Plains Wulin, calling him a legend would not be an exaggeration. Now that he had the chance to fight with such a legend, how could he not be excited?!
