Becoming a saint begins with apprenticing under the last martial arts champion.

Under the moonlight.

In a secluded corner beside the river, there is a tiled house.

Inside the room, dim yellow light filled the space.

Seven or eight burly men, like uncivilized savages, were gathered in a circle, their faces showing greed and enjoyment, constantly tearing at the flesh and blood in the middle.

Almost everyone just tore off a piece of raw meat with their hands and stuffed it into their mouths like a date before swallowing it.

Zhao Hujun, the leader of the Tiger Head Gang, was also among this group.

However, he stopped eating at that moment.

Looking at his right leg, which had healed but still looked somewhat unnatural, and the scar on his philtrum, his face twitched, and a hint of fear and resentment flashed in his eyes.

"The Wang family..."

"That old man surnamed Xing..."

"This isn't over!"

Beside him, a man with blood streaming from his mouth and hands, chewing raw meat, repeatedly replied, "Senior brother, you're right. We'll get our revenge sooner or later!"

"Now that we've joined the Holy Church, we should have filled our own pockets with these pigs long ago..."

A harmless smile appeared on his blood-covered face as he clenched his fist: "Now not only are my injuries healed..."

"My strength seems to have increased by another 20-30%..."

"This is so much faster than arduous martial arts training!"

The other men in the house, who were also accustomed to eating raw meat and drinking blood, echoed their sentiments.

"yes."

"We were too lenient before!"

"..."

Hearing his fellow disciples say this, Zhao Hujun could only agree.

"Tomorrow, go and capture Lu Changqing, the last 'born with a ailment' that the Holy Church needs."

"Having received further rewards from the priest... from now on, we shall follow today's method every day!"

"In less than six months to a year, we'll all be masters who have entered the stage of breakthrough!"

Everyone smiled broadly upon hearing this.

At this moment, Zhao Hujun looked at the crowd and asked, "Where are Ah Huan and the others?"

"I haven't seen them for several days..."

The man next to him replied, "That night he said he was going to have some fun with a bar girl at a nightclub."

"And then until now, there's been no news."

Zhao Hujun frowned, paused for a moment, then smiled again, "Tomorrow, go and arrest that bar girl and question her."

"Then, try the taste of a barmaid..."

Immediately, a chorus of agreement erupted from inside the room once again.

Just as they were enjoying themselves and dreaming about the future.

"bump"!

The wooden door of the house was suddenly kicked open.

Everyone was startled and immediately turned to look.

Then you see a tall, handsome young man standing at the door.

...

Lu Changqing learned about the strength of the Tiger Head Gang members through Wang Hao. After comparing the strengths repeatedly, he decided to take action tonight!

However, according to Wang Hao, he searched several locations one by one, but all his efforts were in vain.

Feeling regretful, I plan to find a place to go swimming and try out my new talent.

But then they discovered this brick house with its lights on.

After listening quietly for a couple of minutes at the door, he was certain that it was the Tiger Head Gang!

At that moment, he stood at the doorway and saw the corpse on the floor inside the house, and a chill ran down his spine.

At the same time, the demonic fish soul contained within the Tai Chi diagram in his mind swayed, allowing him to sense the abundant demonic energy emanating from the people before him...

And look at the blood on their lips...

Even if they all die, not one of them will be innocent!

Upon seeing that it was Lu Changqing, Zhao Hujun's scarred philtrum twitched, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. "They've delivered themselves to my doorstep?"

"That's perfect, I don't need to send anyone to keep an eye on them anymore!"

"Take him down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the burly man next to him suddenly stood up and charged at Lu Changqing with a howl.

Seeing this, Lu Changqing's eyes hardened. As the other party drew closer, he suddenly raised his leg and delivered a powerful front kick!

The extremely fast kick, like a battering ram against a city gate, landed heavily on the man's chest!

A muffled "bang" was heard.

The man's imposing figure flew back like a cannonball, crashing straight into the wall before slowly sliding down with a thud, raising a few specks of dust.

For a moment, everyone in the room was stunned.

Including Zhao Hujun.

That kick wasn't particularly fast, but it was extremely clean and decisive!

Almost no force was wasted!

He clearly saw his good-for-nothing junior brother, the moment he was kicked, his chest caved in, and lung foam, along with blood and saliva, flew out...

Before he could react.

He saw Lu Changqing take a step forward, turn around, close the wooden door, and then reveal an excited and joyful smile.

"Don't let any of them leave."

Seeing the other party's arrogant demeanor and words, Zhao Hujun was filled with rage, even laughing in anger, "You want to kill so many of us in such a narrow room?"

"Stop hiding anything!"

"Show your true skills!"

"superior!"

As Zhao Hujun gave the order, the men around him, who had been stunned, all stood up and instinctively opened their mouths, revealing their upper teeth.

In Lu Changqing's mind, the lanternfish, after killing the charging burly man, devoured his demonic energy and became even more active.

The energy in the black part of the Tai Chi diagram is also being filled.

He looked at these demons before him, whose tongues even had teeth, and his smile only widened.

Because the demonic aura emanating from them had become even stronger...

Kill these guys, his talent...

It may be able to evolve again!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Lu Changqing was overjoyed and couldn't help but laugh.

Faced with a group of demons, he turned the tables and took the initiative.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, they launched the attack first!

Inside the cramped room, his figure left afterimages, as agile as a swallow flying in the rain!

"So fast!"

Just as one of the demons cried out in surprise, everything went blurry before his eyes.

Lu Changqing had already cut into the right side of the crowd, his right leg sweeping like a steel whip, creating a sharp, piercing sound as it cut through the air.

"Snap!"

The shadow of the leg swept past the knees of the two demons, and the sound of bones cracking was as loud as bamboo.

"Ah!!" The two screamed and fell to their knees. Before they could fall, Lu Changqing's left leg shot out like a venomous snake, his toe precisely striking the other man's throat.

"Well--"

The sorcerer's eyes bulged out, and he staggered backward, clutching his throat, knocking over a wooden table.

In just half a breath, the three were crippled!

"Surround him!" Zhao Hujun shouted sharply, his pupils shrinking.

The remaining four demons roared and surrounded them, rushing towards them with a foul stench.

Instead of retreating, Lu Changqing advanced, lowering his body and sliding through the gap between the two claw shadows.

Arhat's Capturing Hand Technique: Double Peaks Piercing the Ears!

He pounded his fists like hammers on the temples of the two demons from below.

With a dull thud, the two men's heads collided, blood and brain matter splattering everywhere.

At the same time, he twisted his waist, and his right leg, like a scorpion's tail hook, kicked the attacker from behind hard in the heart.

"puff--"

The demon's clothes ripped apart on his back, his spine protruded strangely, and he flew like a broken sack, crashing into the wall before slowly sliding down.

Only one person remains.

The man, his mouth stained with blood, was filled with terror in his eyes. He roared and swung his claws wildly, having completely forgotten the martial arts techniques he had previously practiced.

Lu Changqing dodged the claw attack by sidestepping, and his right hand, like a nimble snake, reached out and grabbed the wrist joint, twisting and pulling it!

Dislocating tendons and bones!

"ah--!"

Amidst screams, the man's entire arm was twisted into a pretzel shape by the reverse joint, with the white bone piercing through his flesh.

Lu Changqing stepped forward and struck him in the chest with his left palm!

"Bang!"

The man's eyes glazed over, and he collapsed limply.

From the moment the door was breached until now, only five breaths have passed.

The room fell into a sudden, deathly silence.

Under the dim light, amidst the haphazardly laid corpses, Lu Changqing slowly straightened up.

His breathing was steady, with only a few specks of blood on his clothes. His gaze swept over the mess on the ground and finally landed on Zhao Hujun's face.

Feeling the most intense demonic aura...

Looking at the Tai Chi diagram, the black part is just a hair's breadth away from being filled in again.

Lu Changqing licked his chapped lips, his eyes filled with excitement.

"now you."

Zhao Hujun's face showed shock and confusion.

This is not the kind of ability that someone born with a disability could display.

Lu Changqing wasn't like this before!

He instinctively took a half step back, and looking at Lu Changqing's fierce expression, he shuddered, as if he had seen a fleeting, ruthless predator... like a giant, monstrous fish about to devour him...

Zhao Hujun shook his head vigorously, trying to shake the illusion out of his mind.

"You're too arrogant!"

After saying that, he roared and charged towards Lu Changqing!

Compared to other men, Zhao Hujun's martial arts skills were quite solid.

However, Lu Changqing easily dodged the straight punch that was accompanied by a strong wind by simply turning his body to the side.

Then came the lithe, snake-like arms that coiled around his wrists and elbows...

"Crack, crack!!"

Two sounds in quick succession.

Zhao Hujun felt as if his arm had been crippled!

Intense pain swept through my entire body.

"ah!!!"

Zhao Hujun lashed out forcefully, then his body shot backward.

Looking at Lu Changqing, his face was deathly pale, and his eyes were filled with horror. "You, what kind of grappling technique is that?"

"No, that's not right! You just used your fist, and your palm..."

Lu Changqing offered no explanation, but simply stepped forward, intending to eliminate him completely!

Knowing full well that he was no match for Lu Changqing, Zhao Hujun gritted his teeth and slammed his head against the wall.

The force of the second strike immediately smashed through the not-so-sturdy wall.

under the moonlight.

A cloud of dust rose up.

Zhao Hujun hurriedly got up and ran towards the river.

Take two steps instead of five.

With a "plop," water splashed up as Zhao Hujun entered the river.

In an instant, his demonic nature surged forth, and he seemed to return to his most comfortable zone.

After swimming a little further away, Zhao Hujun turned around and looked at Lu Changqing, who was standing on the shore ten meters away. He frowned slightly and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

"You're too scared to go into the water..."

Immediately afterwards, his words and expression were filled with extreme anger and hatred.

"Lu Changqing..."

"I'll remember you!"

"You, the Wang family, I will slaughter you all sooner or later!!"

Zhao Hujun originally intended to dive and then leave.

After all, he couldn't possibly go ashore to fight Lu Changqing, so it was better to leave sooner rather than later.

But what he never expected was...

Lu Changqing actually went into the water!?

With a light leap, the other person jumped into the river!

Happiness came so suddenly that Zhao Hujun was almost caught off guard.

Only when he saw Lu Changqing's head surface did he burst into laughter, "In the water, I'll kill ten of you!"

"You still dare to play..."

Before Zhao Hujun could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a tremendous force in the water strike his abdomen!

"puff--!"

Zhao Hujun suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his energy and spirit immediately waned.

What is this...?

He didn't understand the situation, nor did he know what had attacked him.

When he came to his senses and looked ahead, he saw a scene that shocked and terrified him.

Under the moonlight, Lu Changqing's slender figure was fully revealed. His toes lightly touched the surface of the river, and a column of water flowed around his chest and back, making him appear like a water god...
