He said calmly, "I didn't come here to see you."
Zhang Chulan's smile froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.
He shamelessly stepped forward and said, "Brother, you're joking. Whatever you want to do, I can do it for you."
Xingliu couldn't help but find Zhang Chulan's appearance somewhat amusing.
He suddenly felt like teasing someone, so he grabbed Lü Liang and threw him at Zhang Chulan.
Chapter 215 Dual-Handed
Seeing this, Zhang Chulan quickly caught the flying Lü Liang, then looked at Xingliu with a fawning expression.
He knew that since this older brother had shown up, he must have had his reasons.
Sure enough, Xingliu's next words instantly invigorated Zhang Chulan:
“I will keep your secret dealings with Quanxing a secret. I can even go further and reveal some secrets about your grandfather to you.”
However, Xingliu changed the subject and put forward a condition: "But before that, you need to lend me a hand."
Zhang Chulan's eyes flashed with wild joy, and he nodded hurriedly in agreement:
"Brother, please speak. I will go through fire and water for you!"
Xingliu's lips curled into a strange smile, which made Zhang Chulan's heart tighten, and he vaguely sensed an ominous feeling.
“Since you’re so agreeable,” Xingliu said slowly, “then help me with a small task.”
He spoke casually, as if what he was about to say was just a trivial matter:
"Do you know what a human pig is? Your task is to turn Lü Liang into a human pig."
"what?!"
Zhang Chulan stared wide-eyed in astonishment, wondering if he had misheard.
Human pigs—what a cruel method! He had heard of it, but he never imagined he would have any connection with it.
He had always been careful to hide his true thoughts and actions, to the point that he had become somewhat numb in some ways.
In his view, even if there was deep hatred, it was nothing more than taking the other person's life.
Such a cruel and inhumane practice as turning people into human pigs was simply beyond his comprehension.
At this moment, Lü Liang was completely unable to move, and could only express his despair with a terrified look in his eyes.
He had no recollection of ever offending this terrifying being named Xingliu; in fact, this was their first meeting.
This doesn't make sense. What grudge could lead someone to go to such lengths?
Looking into Lü Liang's eyes, which were filled with fear and helplessness, Zhang Chulan felt a complex mix of emotions welling up inside him.
He gritted his teeth and finally decided to listen to his heart: "This is too cruel, I can't do it."
Xingliu smiled nonchalantly, then asked flippantly, "Which sect does Lü Liang belong to?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan shuddered, clearly remembering something.
Quanxing, the infamous organization in the world of supernatural beings, is Lü Liang's sect.
Undeniably, there are some straightforward individuals among the Quanxing, but the majority are criminals.
Therefore, as long as you are a person of the Quanxing clan, everyone has the right to kill you.
As long as you can do it, no one will bother you.
Even if the methods are a bit cruel, not many people will cause trouble.
Therefore, Xingliu's actions were, strictly speaking, still an act of eliminating evil.
Lü Liang had obviously thought of this as well, and he was now terrified.
It's good to eliminate demons and uphold justice, but it's not so good if the demon is him.
It felt as if two little people were arguing in Zhang Chulan's mind.
An angelic voice said, "Even if Lü Liang is a member of the Quanxing sect, we shouldn't commit such heinous acts. We are human beings..."
However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a demonic voice:
"Get lost! You've endured ten years of mediocrity, and Grandpa died a tragic and innocent death, his grave even dug up by these people. What's wrong with being a little ruthless now?"
Zhang Chulan was caught in a fierce internal struggle.
On the one hand, he felt that Xingliu's demands were too cruel, and on the other hand, he thought about his years of forbearance and his grandfather's tragic death.
In the end, he decided to heed that demonic voice.
Having seen through the dog-eat-dog nature of the world, he believes that sometimes, cruelty is a necessary means.
He took a deep breath, his previous fawning expression vanishing, and gazed intently at Xingliu, his voice low and firm:
I hope you will keep your promise.
After saying that, he stopped waiting for Xingliu's response and resolutely walked towards Lü Liang.
Looking at Lü Liang's pleading eyes, Zhang Chulan felt a surge of guilt.
He whispered to Lü Liang, "I'm sorry, it seems I really am a shameless person."
As golden light flashed around him, he raised his arm, gathered his power, and prepared to cut off Lü Liang's arm.
However, just as he was about to strike Lü Liang, Xing Liu suddenly intervened and blocked his attack.
Xingliu looked at Zhang Chulan with admiration and exclaimed:
“Interesting. You are indeed an extraordinary person. Even though you wasted ten years, I still believe that the future world of supernatural beings will revere you.”
In Xingliu's opinion, Zhang Chulan's cunning, talent, and abilities in all aspects are top-notch.
He is like a combination of the best qualities of both Zhang Zhiwei and Zhang Huaiyi.
Ten years of wasted time might actually be a good thing for him.
Just as Sun Wukong was subdued after being imprisoned under the Five Fingers Mountain for five hundred years, Zhang Chulan, though he had not engaged in spiritual cultivation for the past ten years, had transformed from the Great Sage in his heart into the Victorious Fighting Buddha.
This transformation made him more mature and paved the way for a smoother path in the future.
Zhang Chulan, who was stopped by Xingliu, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though he had made that decision, the pressure he felt was still immense.
As for Lü Liang, it was as if he had just escaped death, his eyes filled with the relief of surviving a disaster.
However, this relief did not last long before an unbearable pain shot through his arm.
His eyes widened as he saw that his arm had been ripped off, and blood had even splattered onto Zhang Chulan's face, causing the latter's pupils to constrict.
Under Zhang Chulan's gaze, which seemed to regard him as a demon, Xingliu calmly tore off Lü Liang's limbs and then released his restraints.
Once he regained his mobility, Lü Liang immediately let out a shrill scream, writhing on the ground in pain.
As he rolled around, he cursed loudly, but all his curses were directed at Zhang Chulan.
Because he dared not, he dared not offend Xingliu, who was like a demon, again.
After a long while, Lü Liang finally stopped, his face filled with utter despair.
Tears mingled with dust, smearing his face; at that moment, he looked miserable and wretched.
"Lü Liang, do you want to regain your limbs?"
Xingliu suddenly spoke, and his words rekindled a glimmer of hope in Lü Liang's eyes.
He looked eagerly at Xingliu, waiting for him to continue.
"Your family's Soul-Clearing Technique is actually the Dual-Hand Technique. As long as you can fully understand its secrets, limb regeneration will not be difficult," Xingliu said calmly.
For Lü Liang, these words were undoubtedly a ray of light in the darkness.
In despair, he received clear guidance and instantly entered a state of enlightenment.
Late at night, the moon hangs high above the railing.
As time went by, new limbs began to slowly grow from the parts of Lü Liang's severed limbs.
However, at the same time, his Qi was gradually weakening.
This is a natural phenomenon, because even the most powerful hands cannot defy the fundamental laws of nature.
Using skills inevitably involves consuming energy.
Before long, Lü Liang's limbs recovered completely, as if he had never been injured.
He has clearly mastered the Dual-Hand Technique, one of the Eight Extraordinary Skills.
Chapter 216 Four Madmen
When Lü Liang opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that Zhang Chulan had just walked up to him.
The limbs that had been torn off had vanished without a trace, as if it were all just his hallucination.
“This is an illusion.” Xingliu’s voice broke through Lü Liang’s confusion:
"Now, are you willing to share the secret of the Two-Handed Technique, or would you prefer me to take it myself?"
Upon hearing this, Lü Liang blinked blankly for a moment, seemingly still immersed in the shock he had just experienced, unable to respond immediately.
The pain of having his limbs torn apart and Xingliu's indifferent gaze left an indelible mark on his heart.
He couldn't believe that all of this was just an illusion created by magic.
However, the sound of Xingliu's approaching footsteps instantly woke Lü Liang.
As he looked at the demonic figure so close to him, a strong will to survive surged within him.
His lips trembled as he hurriedly said, "Sir, please don't worry, I'll tell you the secret of the Double-Handed Technique right away."
After speaking, Lü Liang disregarded Zhang Chulan beside him and began to explain in detail his insights and understanding of the Dual-Hand Technique.
He knew that his life was in Xingliu's hands, and only by cooperating fully could he possibly save his life.
During his narration, Lü Liang also demonstrated some basic techniques of the double-handed technique from time to time.
Hopefully, Xingliu can better understand and master this magical skill so that we can let him go.
As Lü Liang's narration drew to a close, Xing Liu heard a notification from the system.
