Inch of Radiance Vol 2 Chapter 18.1

Book 2 Chapter 18.1 – Red-clad Archbishop

“This is my martial master, and the things he know will definitely be enough for you to learn!” Li Yang immediately gave his master a helping hand. After all, if his master wanted to take on a disciple, could he just stay on the side and watch?

Little Jack’s eyebrows curved as he carefully looked at Wang Tong. He frowned and only after a while did he say, “En, you seem to have the appearance of a great master. Even though you are big bro Mu Yi’s master, if you want to teach this genius, then you have to at least show me your skills. It would be enough if you painted an ink painting right here!” Said Little Jack.

“Fine!” Wang Tong replied with confidence.

Little Jack immediately went to his room to retrieve his ink and wash set. It seemed like Little Jack was already prepared to learn ink and wash painting a long time ago.

As a truth cultivator, Wang Tong would paint ink and wash paintings in his free time within the Kunlun Paradise. In addition, there were old monsters that lived for several hundred years there, and many of them were supreme masters at ink and wash painting. Modern great masters can’t even be compared to them at all.

Wang Tong’s right hand moved the brush, and it immediately began to draw in a natural and flowing style a he painted and with the black ink splashing about. Little Jack on the side was completely stupefied.

“Take the brush away!” Wang Tong smiled as he placed the painting brush on the side. He turned around with confidence and looked at Little Jack’s expression.

Little Jack stared at that ink and wash painting blankly. Li Yang walked over curiously and gave it a look. Similarly, he couldn’t help but tremble inwardly. “Master is amazing after all!” The picture in this ink and wash painting was an ancient pine beside a cliff. What made people shocked was the loftiness that the ancient pine carried. There was a cold and unyielding aura that poured out from the ink and wash painting.

“Master!” Little Jack woke up from his daze and immediately bowed towards Wang Tong with satisfaction.

Wang Tong accepted Little Jack’s gesture of respect with a smile, and what Wang Tong did after immediately made Li Yang stupefied. Wang Tong seemed like he became addicted to accepting disciples and actually ran up to chat with Miss Lily as if he was offering his services. Miss Lily was different from Little Jack. Little Jack did not like martial arts, while Lily was particularly interested in it. She also knew that Wang Tong was Li Yang’s master, so with Li Yang being so powerful, it was easy to imagine how ridiculous his master was. Miss Lily immediately paid her respects happily to Wang Tong.

As a result, both Little Jack and Lily unexpectedly became Wang Tong’s disciples.

“In the future, the two of you need to call Mu Yi senior brother, understand?” Wang Tong displayed the airs of a master soon after.

Lily and Little Jack also happily became closer to Li Yang as they immediately sweetly said, “Senior brother.”

Li Yang could only dryly reply, “Haha, junior sister, junior brother.” He couldn’t figure out why his master suddenly decided to accept disciples like this today no matter how he thought about it.

Following that, Wang Tong happily accompanied these two new disciples while throwing Li Yang to the side. The original thought of checking Li Yang’s cultivation improvements were also tossed aside.

…

“En, the sky is getting dark, so master should leave as well. You two need to study earnestly. In a few days, master will come back to check your improvements.” Wang Tong looked outside and said this to the siblings. Li Yang immediately took the lead to send him off.

Only after watching his master’s disappearing figure did Li Yang release a breath of air. He turned around and asked Little Jack and Lily curiously, “What did my master teach you two all day?” Just now, Li Yang seemed to have spent the entire time with his eyes closed resting.

Lily excitedly replied, “Master taught us a set of Eagle Claw techniques. Master said that this skill was not easy to use, yet I feel like this skill is extremely powerful. In this short half day, I feel like my attack power has doubled!” Lily had just awakened as a werewolf, and so her body was powerful. However, there was no way for her to efficiently use her body’s strength.

Li Yang nodded his head. Even though the Eagle Claw technique was a relatively strong attacking method, it was not favored among truth cultivators. Even in the eyes of Li Yang right now, the Eagle Claw technique had a shockingly large number of holes, and it was likely that Li Yang’s ‘Devil God’s Six Extremes’ had the fewest.

“Little Jack, what about you?” Li Yang turned around and said to Little Jack.

Little Jack said, “Master taught me many painting techniques and fundamental skills. He basically taught me everything regarding ink and wash paintings!”

Li Yang looked at Little Jack with a blank expression and found it hard to believe what he just heard. “Taught everything? In half a day?”

Little Jack arrogantly wrinkled his nose and said proudly, “It’s because I’m a genius!” After saying this, he returned to his room.

Li Yang did not learn ink and wash painting before, and naturally didn’t know. The most important part of these paintings was to observe and practice. As for techniques and theory, there weren’t actually that many. In addition, Wang Tong’s teaching method was different from those in China. He taught Little Jack the theories and a few special techniques before leaving Little Jack to slowly practice himself.

After the evening meal, Li Yang returned to his room.

“Right, it should be roughly a month since that assassin ‘Third’ accepted the billion dollar mission. There should be some results by now!” After thinking about this, Li Yang immediately opened his computer to enter the Assassination Organization website, entering the ‘billion dollar mission’ page.

“Assassin ‘Third’ failed the mission, deceased!”

When Li Yang saw this result, he slowly exhaled. While smiling, he said, “Wolf King, Wolf Kingah! You are truly formidable. This ‘Third’ was the number one solo assassin, yet was actually killed by you. It’s likely that only members of the three great assassin organizations dare to accept this reward now.”

Currently, Li yang was relatively happy. With the defeat of assassin ‘Third’, didn’t this mean that Li Yang still had a chance?

“Now that assassin ‘Third’ even died, it seems like assassins won’t casually take on this mission any more. After all, when comparing just money, one’s life is more important.” Li Yang made this judgment, however… The ‘billion dollar’ webpage suddenly changed.

Another person accepted the billion dollar mission!

Li Yang just made the judgment that no one would dare accept it, yet someone immediately took it after. This made Li Yang extremely curious as he checked just what kind of God-like figure accepted this mission.

“One of the three great assassin organizations — Japanese ‘Dual Flowers!”

Li Yang disdainfully sneered, “Heng heng, this japanese person seems rather interesting. However, it’s not enough to kill a Seventh Rank expert. If this japanese person is simply greedy, then if he’s not beaten up a bit, he won’t understand pain!”

“En, I’ll complete the A rank mission I accepted tomorrow morning. I’ll finished ten A rank missions as soon as possible so I can take on that ‘billion dollar mission’!” Li Yang made his resolve inwardly. He was not worried in the slightest whether that ‘Dual Flowers’ had enough strength to fight the peak level Seventh Ranked Wolf King.

“Miss Lily, help me book a reservation for my flight tomorrow to Dallas, Texas!” Li Yang told Li Yang through the household phone. As Li Yang’s housekeeper, these things were all taken care of my her.
