Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

Except for the two Heavenly Person and Wen Chouchou, the other nine who came to join were all of Gang Qi Realm strength, yet none were ordinary individuals.

Six Plate Taoist, with Gang Qi Realm strength, obtained the "Taixu Scripture" stored by the strange martial figure Taixuzi from ancient Ming Country in the bottomless abyss beneath Lupan Mountain, full of venomous snakes and miasma like clouds. Through it, he mastered the inner strength, external power, Qinggong, medical skill, and Taixu Swordsmanship within the scripture, making him one of the more formidable people below the Heavenly Human Realm.

Hongying Old Man, with Gang Qi Realm strength, is renowned in Tang Country for creating his own Heavenly Eagle Claws, with each claw technique evolved from the four seasons, every move reaches the pinnacle of subtlety and mastery. Furthermore, he is proficient in the Art of the Mystic Arts and the Nine Gates, making him a unique figure.

The Can Hun couple, both with Gang Qi Realm strength, practice the extremely vicious "Cold Bone Soul Yin Skill" in the Martial World, where practitioners must often consume special drugs and enhance their power through interactions of Yin and Yang.

Those affected by this Evil Skill must endure four torturous episodes, each forcing the Blood Qi from the marrow into the Qi Sea Acupoint, suffering unbearable pain until meeting a tragic end, hence this skill holds a notorious reputation. Naturally, this couple are not benevolent figures.

Besides these four, the other five also have notable backgrounds, each possessing Strange Skills.

However, with Jiang Dali’s sharp eye power, determining one’s strength just by combining the Qi Mechanism with judgment of spirit, he could discern that the other five’s power was clearly inferior to these four.

If there must be a distinction, then the strength of Six Plate Taoist and the others four nearly resembles that of the Fire King and Water King.

If the Can Hun couple joined forces, they might surpass the once strongest Sword King Qu Hanshan of the Power Gang or the former Sect Hierarch, Ren Woxing of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, but weaker still than an expert like Xu Ziling, who is about to break through while mastering many secret techniques.

And the strength of the other five, within the Gang Qi Realm, are generally slightly weaker than Zuo Lengchan, who once died at the hands of Jiang Dali.

Yet each of them is considered capable of founding a school of martial arts in the different countries of the Martial World, surpassing the likes of Yu Canghai from Qingcheng. After joining the Mountain Village, they too can act as high-level combat power.

These individuals only came seeking allegiance to Black Wind Village after it destroyed the World Association, clearly with their own interests in mind.

In the short term, loyalty is out of the question, but since they came to join during his period of disappearance, there is still sincerity.

Jiang Dali knows perfectly well not to expect these people to sacrifice their lives for the Mountain Village.

But now the village’s 43 sub branches plus the Dragon and Tiger Gangs and Divine Iron City, all lack experts who can hold the scene.

As long as these individuals can help with some of the tricky matters within the village, many problems could be solved.

Moreover, someone like Wen Chouchou, once a manager in the World Association, although his background is sensitive and his obsequious and sycophantic nature is despised.

But thinking differently, this person is quite capable.

His opportunistic nature indicates he bullies the weak and fears the strong, as long as one stays stronger, one can naturally subdue him.

His flattery and obsequiousness show he knows how to bend and stretch, just the kind of person a force needs – adept at handling all situations and making connections.

Just imagine, what an arrogant and formidable figure like Xiong Ba would think highly of and even choose such a person as a military manager in the World Association, could he truly be a mere lackey echoing flattering words, without real ability? If that were the case, the World Association would hardly have expanded into the Divine Martial Country’s largest gang.

Besides, while Wen Chouchou seems cowardly and afraid of death, in crucial moments, he often bursts forth with great courage, making the most rational and brave decisions.

Just like his current desperate and vital move to Divine Iron City, or in ancient records, knowing he would die at the hands of Xiong Ba and yet showing unyielding resistance – all indicating that he is not as simple as he appears.

Therefore, Jiang Dali does not mind accepting Wen Chouchou under his command to see his capabilities.

After considering all this, Jiang Dali immediately stood up, cupped his fists, and smiled at the twelve people, "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Black Wind Village. As for the assignment of roles, I intend to notify you after a few days of careful consideration."

Upon hearing this, the twelve people all felt relieved, smiling and cupping their fists in return, expressing that joining Black Wind Village and becoming Green Forest Heroes is their honor, and so on.

Jiang Dali smiled and waved a dismissal, leaving only Wen Chouchou, Chamu Long, and Dugu Fang behind.

The other nine did not suspect anything, all understanding these three were different and likely had separate arrangements, so they tactfully left the Martial Arts Discussion Hall.

...

Inside the Martial Arts Discussion Hall, soon only Wen Chouchou and Jiang Dali were left. Chamu Long and Dugu Fang temporarily went to a side hall to await Jiang Dali’s individual reception.

Wen Chouchou had already relaxed when Jiang Dali expressed willingness to accept his joining, knowing his little life was spared.

Now alone in the hall facing Jiang Dali, though feeling very nervous, he no longer feared anxiously. He hurriedly smiled ingratiatingly, poured tea, and bowed submissively to offer tea before Jiang Dali, "Village Chief! Please have some tea!"

"Hmm..."
