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

While feeling extremely frightened, Brother Xin quickly turned his head to look at the source of the sound.

Lu Changqing was already within three steps of him!

So fast!

Why is this kid so fast?

According to what I heard before, the other party had only just started their second training session, right?

If it's only been two training sessions, why can his eyes only catch a glimpse of its form?

The next moment, Xing Ge, filled with fear and anger, raised his arm, clenched his fist, and shouted as if to release the sudden terror in his heart!

At the same time, he instinctively thought: with so many people, and my cultivation level being higher than theirs, I'm probably safe...

To his utter surprise, Lu Changqing did not dodge or even meet his punch, which was so powerful that no ordinary person could withstand it!

Instead, he quickly reached for his waist and suddenly raised... a pistol!

The gun barrel was locked onto him, its dark muzzle pointing wide open!

At such close range, Xing Ge's eyes almost shrank to pinpoints when he saw the pistol.

The anger born of fear vanished instantly, like a pile of firewood doused with cold water, a chilling sensation washing over the entire body from head to toe.

Then Xing Ge suddenly cried out in alarm, "No..."

"Bang!"

The cry stopped abruptly before it could be sustained.

The gunshot rang out and the man died; only then did those around react.

Without exception, everyone looked shocked.

They all looked at Lu Changqing and Xing Ge, who had been shot between the eyebrows and died with his eyes wide open, lying on the ground.

Fast, too fast!

It happened so fast!

All of this happened in just two breaths.

They couldn't even see how Lu Changqing got on the ship; he seemed to have teleported there like a ghost.

Beside Xing Ge, the man with narrow eyes exclaimed in surprise, his body trembled slightly, and he immediately turned his gun to aim at Lu Changqing.

However, before he could pull the trigger, Lu Changqing had already moved by pushing off with his feet.

boom!

The gun in the man with narrow eyes fired, but it missed Lu Changqing.

Then, the pistol in Lu Changqing's hand fired.

boom!

The man with slender eyebrows and eyes also fell to the ground with a thud.

He was shot in the right eye.

Immediately, Lu Changqing continued without stopping, his feet moving swiftly.

On the not-so-spacious ship, like ghosts reaping lives, every step taken was accompanied by a gunshot.

The other men on the boat were at most second-level swimmers, and the vast majority were ordinary people who were just good swimmers.

To them, the scene before them looked as if Lu Changqing had managed to dodge bullets!

All five of their own gunmen fired, but they couldn't hit the enemy at all!

Combined with the scene of Xing Ge dying in terror, everyone's morale collapsed instantly.

The members of the shipping guild on the other boat, seeing that people were still dying, did not hesitate and all jumped into the water to escape.

In the distance, Old Chen and the others, who had been staring in disbelief at the scene before them, finally came to their senses.

Old Chen's eyes shifted from blank to fierce. He immediately grabbed the knife, his hand trembling as he clutched his wounded arm, and shouted to his brothers beside him:

"Chase them! Don't let them get away!"

"If we let them escape and word gets out, we and our families will be finished!"

When Zhou San, Liu Shitou, and the Zhao brothers heard this, they were struck dumb, and their eyes all turned fierce.

It does!

They killed members of the canal gang. If the canal gang finds out, their entire families will suffer!

For the sake of their families, even at the cost of their lives, not a single one of these escaped canal gang members can be left behind!

Immediately, they all picked up their short knives, intending to jump into the water to chase and kill, even Old Chen did so.

But what happened the next moment left them all completely stunned.

In a very short time, Lu Changqing killed everyone on the boat.

Then, with a light step, he resembled a martial arts master with light-footed skills from a storybook.

Walk three or five steps quickly across the water, stop at a spot on the surface, reach down hard, grab, and pull!

One of the men was pulled out!

Then Lu Changqing punched him hard in the chest, piercing through his chest!

The man was like a fish that had been slaughtered, unable to jump up or down for a moment.

Then, Lu Changqing seemed to be possessed by a master of light-body kung fu, moving back and forth.

Or repeat the previous action, reaching into the water to capture and kill;

Or it might plunge into the water, quickly approaching its prey like a hunting shark, and deliver a fatal "bite".

In less than a minute.

On the turbid river surface, a dozen or so blooming blood flowers emerged.

Occasionally, a few corpses would float to the surface, turning the river water into blood.

A few breaths later, Lu Changqing leaped back onto the deck, still holding a man who was alive and begging for mercy.

Bathed in moonlight, his slender figure resembled a deity reflected in the water...

"Wow!"

The man captured alive by Lu Changqing spat out a mouthful of water, then frantically kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Spare me! Spare me!"

Lu Changqing stroked the handle of the pistol, feeling its coldness, and thought to himself: Who says that having a gun renders martial arts training useless?

That gun is powerful.

Once you've mastered martial arts, using a gun will make you even more formidable!

If footwork is combined with hand-to-hand combat skills, the enemy might still have the slightest chance to resist.

However, combined with his footwork and gun speed of tens of meters per second, he can truly be said to be invincible among his peers!

Seeing the wailing members of the canal gang, Lu Changqing suddenly kicked one of them.

"You dare to attack me without even knowing my background?"

"Have you always been this brave?"

Upon hearing this, the man, enduring the pain, continued to get up and kowtow repeatedly: "I'll never dare to do it again! Please, Master Lu, spare my life! I'm a pitiful man too!"

Lu Changqing asked him, "Is the only reason your shipping guild wants to take action against me being foreigners?"

In extreme terror, the man blurted out, "Master Huang said... said there's a great treasure beneath the village port wharf!"

"We are currently recruiting brothers who are good swimmers!"

"No, it wasn't Master Huang who said it, it was the Hall Master!"

"The head of the hall told Master Huang that the treasure would mature after the New Year, and if they could obtain it, it would be worth a thousand gold pieces!"

"We only decided to recruit Master Lu because we saw his excellent swimming skills; we have no hostility towards him whatsoever!"

Lu Changqing's heart stirred slightly as he listened to the man's words.

Is there a huge treasure underwater at the village port pier, and it's not even ripe yet?

Could it be that it's also a precious plant from the waters I discovered?

But since this item is on the ship, it's not convenient to ask about it in more detail.

Even so, with this information, I'm sure I'll be able to find clues by searching carefully underwater again.

After repeatedly trying to get information out of the man, Lu Changqing suddenly delivered a whip kick to the man's right head.

While kicking his skull, they also kicked the man into the water, allowing him to rest in peace with the Dragon King.

The next instant, Lu Changqing put away the pistol in his hand.

Touching the three completely empty magazines, he made a decision: he needed to practice his marksmanship and also stock up on bullets.

At least before reaching the fourth level of training, or even before entering the realm of martial arts, combining firearms with martial arts will definitely allow you to achieve an advantage greater than the sum of its parts.

Thinking this, he looked up at Old Chen and the others, and saw that all the brothers on the boat were filled with shock, or rather, admiration, even... fanaticism!
