“Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms?”

Upon hearing this name, Chen Jie was stunned because this martial arts technique resembled the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms from the martial arts novels he read in his previous life.

Peng Shizhong nodded and said, “Exactly, Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms. It is said that this is the highest secret technique of the Beggar Sect. During the era of Qian Song, there was a Gang Leader with the surname Qiao who simplified the traditionally passed down Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palm into eighteen palms, and renamed it to Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms.”

“Later, after being passed down through several generations, it reached a Gang Leader with the surname Hong, who greatly developed it, and with this hand technique, he ranked among the Five Extremes of that time, making the Beggar Sect the number one gang in the world.”

“Subsequently, this technique was passed to the righteous hero Guo Juxia. After Guo Juxia and his family were killed in Xiangyang City, this set of palms was only passed down within the Beggar Sect. When the Mulan people invaded the border, the Beggar Sect suffered brutal suppression; many righteous heroes died in battle.”

“Only a few who feared death remained, and from there the Beggar Sect was no longer the number one gang in the world, crumbling to almost complete disarray, and the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms almost became extinct.”

“However, within the Beggar Sect, there should still be a unique copy. It is said that Guild Leader Shi of the Beggar Sect has already learned twelve palms and is considered a first-class expert of this era.”

“It’s just unexpected that this old beggar from Mianshui has also learned such a divine technique!”

Having heard this, Zhou Chu swallowed and asked, “How many palms has that old beggar learned?”

Peng Shizhong responded, “How many palms? Just one!”

“Just one palm?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chu exclaimed, and Peng Shizhong said, “One palm is enough!”

As he spoke, Peng Shizhong recalled that earth-shattering palm, which completely shattered all his confidence.

That palm truly showed him what was known as a famous unparalleled technique throughout the world.

Although the old beggar’s mastery of this palm was only at the Small Success level, based solely on this palm, Peng Shizhong felt that even Nan Batian, ranked first among the Thirteen Grand Protectors, would not be a match for the old beggar.

The title of Mianshui’s number one seemed likely to change hands.

Having heard Peng Shizhong’s description, Chen Jie could almost confirm that this Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms was indeed the legendary Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, whose modification from twenty-eight palms to eighteen was likely done by the famous Beiqiao Feng of South Murong, North Qiao Feng.

Just that this world’s hero Qiao Feng, after modifying the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, renamed it to Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms.

This was indeed an unexpected development, but thinking about it, Chen Jie also understood somewhat; besides the two supreme skills of the Beggar Sect—an exemplary Dog Beating Stick Technique and the Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palms—there was also the Dragon Capturing Skill and the Grand Ancestor Long Fist.

While Qiao Feng was improving the Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palms, he possibly referenced some techniques from the Dragon Capturing Skill, merging them to form the current Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms.

Yet this alone drastically changed the situation in Mianshui!

Directly making him the number one expert in Mianshui, who knows whether the others could remain seated comfortably or not.

…

Meanwhile, in Mianshui County, at the Fishing Guild Headquarters!

“What!”

Nan Batian erupted from his seat, his face full of shock as he said to Qin Ying, “Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms!”

“Indeed, Gang Leader, it is the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms. Peng Shizhong coughed up blood from just one palm; had you not instructed us to follow him out of the city and watch over him, Peng Shizhong might have died at the hands of that old beggar today.”

“Gang Leader, I don’t understand why we saved that Peng Shizhong.”

Upon hearing this, Nan Batian said, “Heh, if we didn’t save him, the Guild Cao would have. Why should we let them take the credit?”

“And besides, my brother is not so easy to kill.”

As Nan Batian spoke, his expression suddenly turned solemn, “But this Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms!”

As formidable as he was, he too was startled by this legendary martial arts technique. Back when the Beggar Sect was the number one gang in the world, it was because of the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms. If their practiced martial arts techniques were compared to such an unparalleled skill, it would be like comparing radishes to ginseng—there just wasn’t a slight difference.

Seeing Nan Batian thus, Bai Zhishan Tang Ziyue, who was beside him, smiled and said, “Gang Leader, with such a powerful old beggar, it’s probably not just our Fishing Guild that will have trouble sleeping. This might not necessarily be a bad thing.”

“What do you mean?”

Nan Batian looked towards Tang Ziyue.

Tang Ziyue added, “In this battle, the White Tiger Hall suffered heavy losses. Among the four heroic sons, three were injured and one died; they have been greatly weakened.”

“And Peng Shizhong is also badly injured. It will not be easy for him to recover, and this is good news for our internal Fishing Guild.”

“Moreover, I heard they say that in two days, White Tiger Hall and the Beggar Sect have an arranged fight at Nan Lake. If we can make good use of this situation, it will definitely be greatly advantageous for us.”

Tang Ziyue spoke while fanning himself.

Hearing this, Nan Batian squinted his eyes saying, “Your point is good, and I might also have the chance to witness this world-famous ultimate technique, Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms!”

Hehehe…

Nan Batian and Tang Ziyue laughed together, while Qin Ying furrowed his brow, unclear of what the two were laughing about but he joined in the laughter nevertheless.

…

At the Guild Cao!

“Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms!”

Elder Liu was startled as he looked at Gu Qingfeng; even Bai Mosheng, who was normally unflappable, appeared shocked.

As members of the Jianghu, how many had not heard of these legendary skills that made their mark across the martial arts world!

Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms was known as the strongest fist technique of an era, famed for its utmost hardness and positivity; its external skills were invincible!

Who would have thought that such a divine technique would appear in this small Mianshui County?

It seemed a change was coming to Mianshui County!

Bai Mosheng sighed, then looking at Gu Qingfeng, he asked, “How many palms did that old beggar learn?”
