The Dominance of Martial Arts: Starting from the Tiger Roaring Golden Bell

Chapter 167: Furious, Things Have Changed
Fanhai Wharf, temple.

Hong Jinlu, who was secretly absorbing divine power, saw several panicked people running towards him not far away.

He realized that the loud noise in the distance that he was concerned about had disappeared for some time.

Glancing at his anxious and helpless subordinates standing at the door, Hong Jinlu spoke to the countless children kneeling on the ground praying:
"In front of the Dragon King's statue, you are all sincere, but I wonder what's going on behind the scenes?
A true believer must remain sincere at all times, instead of just showing off in front of the altar, otherwise he would be deceiving himself.

I will stay in the dark and keep an eye on all of you for the Dragon King."

Under the children's fanatical gazes, Hong Jinlu turned and left as soon as he finished speaking.

He raised his hand to stop his men from speaking, and only when they were a certain distance away from the temple did he nod to signal them to speak.

"Mr. Hong, something happened." The sturdy man who reported the incident had a horrified look on his face.

Hong Jinlu didn't care at all and said lightly:

"Did we fail again at Jingtao Tower?"

"It's not just there, something happened to Brother Long."

Hong Jinlu paused, frowned and looked at the burly man:

"Li Shan? What will happen to him?"

“When they were encircling the Bone Snake, Brother Long suddenly attacked Nie Hongshen, but was knocked away by Qin Zhiming who came rushing over.

Qin Zhiming and Nie Hongshen killed the bone snake in front of everyone.

Qin Zhiming said that Xuelong was ambitious and wanted to take credit for himself, and he couldn't bear to see it and had to help him.

He also said that he had never been bewitched by any evil spirits, but was just misunderstood by you, Hong Gong.

Immediately afterwards, Brother Long fought with him and left Jingtao Wharf.

Nie Hongshen also left there on the pretext of stopping them.

Then, a terrifying child came out of Jingtao Tower, scaring people so much that they fled in all directions.

When people in the county town learned about this, they all attributed the failure to Brother Long.

They believed that it was Brother Long who stole the credit, which was why three bone-training warriors, including himself, left.

Otherwise, I will definitely be able to force Chang Anhe to take action tonight.

Now the people in the county town are clamoring for you, Lord Hong, to deal with Brother Long."

Did Xuelong fail to capture the person pretending to be Nie Hongshen? How dare Qin Zhiming return to the city? How did he reach the Bone Realm?
Questions flashed through his mind, and Hong Jinlu stared at the night in the distance with an expressionless face:
"Where are those three?"

It doesn’t matter. As long as I go there secretly and capture Qin Zhiming and others, everything will be solved.

Thinking of this, Hong Jinlu smiled with confidence and glanced at his men.

Unexpectedly, the next sentence of his subordinate stunned Hong Jinlu.

"When we rushed to the place where the last sounds of fighting had ceased, we only saw some ruins and minced meat mixed with hair, but no one."

The battle is over, the winner has been decided?
Why didn't the blood dragon report to him right away? Could it be...

"Brother Long?!"

In an instant, Hong Jinlu's face changed drastically when he heard the shouting not far away.

The cry was full of worry and a hint of fear.

Soon, the dying Blood Dragon with his skin torn apart was carried to the pharmacy by everyone.

Hong Jinlu, who followed closely behind, shouted for everyone to leave and closed the door of the pharmacy.

He hurriedly walked up, held Blood Dragon's hand, and poured his internal energy into his body to check his injuries.

There were bloody wounds all over his internal organs and his bones were covered with cracks.

Strangely, he did not find any external injuries. These injuries seemed to be caused by the blood dragon's body falling apart on its own.

Hong Jinlu took out the Wanxue Wine from his arms, pinched the blood dragon's jaw, and forced it into his mouth.

He used his internal energy to carry the Ten Thousand Blood Wine, penetrating deep into the cracks and bloody wounds.

Under the powerful effect of the Ten Thousand Blood Wine and the self-healing of the Bone Training Realm, the blood holes and cracks in the blood dragon's body healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After the internal injuries were healed, Hong Jinlu sprinkled the remaining Wanxue wine on the most serious part of the blood dragon's body and wrapped it with medicated cloth.

After doing all this, Hong Jinlu tried to wake up the blood dragon:
"Li Shan? Li Shan?"

Before he finished speaking, the blood dragon suddenly opened its eyes and attacked Hong Gong with its right claw.

Mr. Hong was not in a hurry and grabbed his wrist: "It's me."

Xue Long reacted, looked into Hong Jinlu's eyes, and uttered a sentence with difficulty:

"Qin Zhiming is suspected to be an extraordinary person. He has reached the bone training stage. If his marrow is not trained, no one can stop him." After Xuelong finished speaking, he fainted.

His physical injuries are no longer serious, but his mind is damaged, and he can only rely on himself to get through it.

A thought flashed through his mind, and Hong Jinlu let go of Xuelong's right hand.

He opened the door and reminded the doctor who had just arrived to cure the blood dragon at all costs and to use more calming herbs.

Afterwards, Hong Jinlu returned to the fifth floor of the granary and looked at the crescent moon in the night.

"Why don't you do anything?"

"How can I take action? The bone snake is dead, and I have to prevent those people from pouring into Jingtao Tower.

I didn't expect that Blood Dragon would be defeated so quickly."

Zaoer, wearing a Taoist robe, slowly emerged from the shadows.

“He is an alien. Normally, he can be divided into two. When he is combined into one, his strength can increase by two times.

Even so, he still couldn't beat Qin Zhiming."

"Half-step marrow training?"

Hong Jinlu shook his head:

“The difficulty of marrow training and becoming an immortal is comparable, it’s not that simple.

Xuelong said he looked like an alien? And his master Li Hu could control fire? Who is he?"

"I don't know. The temple master only told me that as long as Qin Zhiming does not affect his immortality, no matter what he does, I don't want any reward."

"You're just going to ignore it?"

Zao'er did not answer Hong Jinlu's words, as if she agreed.

After a moment of silence, Hong Jinlu smiled:

“Hahahahahaha, you killed my adopted son, and you forcibly occupied my Fanhai Gang’s camp outside the city, causing three immortal envoys to not return, and my immortal weapon has not been completed yet.

Even so, I can't touch him?"

After Hong Jinlu finished speaking, he suddenly grabbed Zaoer's neck and lifted her up.

In an instant, Zao'er's body swelled up and turned into a bloated, pale floating corpse.

The river water mixed with mud and sand flowed out from the numerous openings on his body.

The next moment, a huge amount of internal energy like a tide gathered around Hong Jinlu, and a huge shadow appeared behind him.

Bang, the sound of the ball being punctured was heard, and Zaoer returned to its original state.

The shadow slowly approaching from behind Hong Jinlu made him tremble.

"Next time you see Qin Zhiming, if you still don't take action, I will tear you into pieces and throw you into the canal, where you will be eaten by fish and shrimp again.

Also, please tell Master Peng that at this stage of the plan, I am the most important person in becoming an immortal.

Qin Zhiming's influence on my mentality is influencing my immortality.

I hope Master Peng can help me find a way to get my magic weapon.

Otherwise, if I fight with Chang An and I accidentally hit him too hard, killing him would affect Master Peng’s immortality...”

When Mr. Hong heard this, he stopped abruptly, threw Zao'er to the ground, and turned away.

With a swish, Qin Zhiming, carrying a large bag, dug up the pile of earth above and climbed out of the pit.

He turned his head and looked at the county town not far away, and then looked at Zhang Yuhuai who had been waiting for a long time.

"Ah Chen?"

“He has been carried back to the camp by Brother Fan, along with his fellow disciples.

Brother Hu, in the bag you are carrying?"

"Oh, our good brother."
