Immortal Martial Saint, starting with unlimited stat points

The inner courtyard of the Crimson Flame Martial Arts School.

A handsome young man stood up and looked calmly at the crowd.

The disciples around them, whose emotions had been suppressed by Hong Lie's words, suddenly brightened up, as if they had seen someone who could carry firewood for the common people.

However, what Zhou Chen was thinking at this moment was not as noble as they imagined.

He simply didn't want those who died making blood bait to bleed and sacrifice in vain, or even become resources for the conspiracy behind the Wusheng Cult.

The scent of incense ash I had just smelled in that earthenware jar was all too clear.

He could even feel the joy of "incense ash" in that thick blood.

They grow and thrive by being fed with blood.

"Why don't you give it a try?" Du Ming looked at the boy in front of him and chuckled in surprise.

The Crimson Flame Martial Arts School is likely to decline, now filled with nothing but delusional dreamers.

Du Ming will lead the Cold Current Martial Arts School to grow stronger step by step by eliminating cannibalistic monsters.

"Gao Tian, ​​why aren't you taking this man away?!" Du Ming said sarcastically. "If just any Tom, Dick, or Harry in the Body Tempering Realm jumps out and questions the county government's decisions, where is the authority of the government?!"

Gao Tian frowned as he looked at Du Ming.

Since Master went to the county town yesterday, these people have become increasingly audacious.

Gao Tian looked at Zhou Chen with a warm expression, "Junior Brother Zhou, do you perhaps have some brilliant plan?"

As the senior disciple of the Crimson Flame Martial Arts School, Gao Tian would naturally not speak on behalf of outsiders.

Although he didn't quite agree with Zhou Chen's open opposition to Hong Lie, he still continued the conversation.

Du Ming was not satisfied with this.

He raised an eyebrow and said to Hong Lie, "Officer Hong, this man has openly questioned the decision of the yamen. Please arrest him."

Hong Lie narrowed his eyes and glanced at Du Ming, who wanted to use someone else to do his dirty work, his expression displeased.

What's more, the person in front of him was the young hunter he had been looking for a few days ago.

Although he had never asked for her name, he could not possibly forget her just by looking at her face.

He paused, then smiled and said, "Young man, I've been looking for you for ages."

"Unexpectedly, what I was looking for came to me without any effort."

Upon seeing that Hong Lie recognized him, Zhou Chen immediately clasped his hands in a salute: "Officer Hong."

"No need for formalities." Hong Lie looked at him with eager eyes, leaning forward. "Could it be that you've also found traces of this newly appeared cannibalistic monster?"

"It's worth a try." Zhou Chen nodded, not giving a definitive answer.

"What do you need?" Constable Hong asked bluntly.

"The cannibalistic monsters are quite powerful, and they mostly operate in groups. I need some manpower to patrol with me." Zhou Chen was not intimidated and made the request directly.

"Alright," Constable Hong readily agreed. "Now that all the martial arts school disciples are under the command of my county government, why don't you find a few from your own school to join us?"

Zhou Chen nodded slightly, clearly sharing the same thought.

The fact that Chief Constable Hong didn't directly appoint patrol personnel for him was because he wanted him to do him a favor.

"Officer Hong, isn't this inappropriate?" Taking advantage of a lull, Du Ming, already disgruntled, interjected, "The Crimson Flame Martial Arts School is powerful. We're counting on them to cooperate with us in setting up blood bait to kill the man-eating monsters!"

Chief Constable Hong waved his hand and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. Let him try. If he can't find a solution, making changes won't affect the overall situation."

Upon hearing Hong Lie's words, Du Ming wisely shut his mouth.

Hong Lie had no idea what kind of spell this man had cast on him, that made him so convinced.

"Is there anyone willing to lend me a hand?" Zhou Chen had only been an inner disciple for a short time and didn't know anyone besides Chen Yunpeng.

However, some of the disciples of the Crimson Flame Martial Arts School may not think this is a good job, or even consider it a hot potato.

Among the inner disciples, some had shifty eyes, while others had eager eyes; their expressions varied.

Hearing Zhou Chen ask everyone to volunteer, many of the older disciples shrank back.

At this moment, Yi Lianxing glanced around and saw that the disciples who had been the most vehement in refuting the blood bait issue were now silent and showed no intention of stepping forward.

After all, it's fine to just have a few words, but to actually make them accompany a newly promoted inner disciple to make baseless accusations is a waste of time.

With this much free time, why not follow Du Ming and his group and use the blood bait method to secure a stable future?

"I'll go with you." Chen Yunpeng stood up helplessly from the corner.

Although he also thought that Zhou Chen's chances of finding the cannibalistic monster on his own were slim, he had no choice but to have such a friend.

Hong Lie nodded to Chen Yunpeng when he saw him stand up.

As a fallen genius of the Chen family, Chen Yunpeng had frequent interactions with Hong Lie when he was at the height of his fame, but recently they have interacted much less.

"Count me in," Yi Lianxing stepped forward and spoke calmly.

Chen Yunpeng was somewhat surprised. When did the young lady of the Crimson Flame Martial Arts School and Zhou Chen become so close that she was willing to get involved in this mess?

After a few more breaths, Zhou Chen saw that no one got up, his expression remained calm, and he showed no embarrassment.

His original plan was for only himself and Chen Yunpeng to join, so Yi Lianxing's willingness to join was an unexpected surprise.

"Officer Hong, the three of us are enough," Zhou Chen said to Hong Lie.

Du Ming looked at Zhou Chen's group of three with disdain. He had thought that many disciples would be willing to follow Zhou Chen, but when the time came, they were all all talk and no action.

Hong Lie's tiger-like eyes swept over everyone, forcing them to lower their heads. Seeing that no one else volunteered, he slowly said, "Xiao Liu, you stay with them. If you need any support, come find me anytime."

Outside the door, a young man in official uniform walked briskly in. Although his face still had a touch of childishness, he had a capable air about him.

"Yes, sir." He glanced at Zhou Chen, who was being pointed at, and his eyes lit up.

During these patrols, everyone has been discussing whether they can find the young hunter.

He glanced at Hong Lie's stern face and thought to himself, "The boss is indeed the boss; he can even find someone who hasn't left their name."

He nimbly ran to Zhou Chen's side and said loudly, "Captain, just tell me if you need anything, and I'll make sure it's taken care of."

-----------------

That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

Zhou Chen and his group of four set off from the Crimson Flame Martial Arts School to patrol the streets.

"Brother Zhou, since we wiped out those man-eating monsters last time, they've become even more elusive. Even their tamed demon dogs are hard to find," Xiao Liuzi said familiarly to Zhou Chen, explaining the situation.

"Indeed, the smell has faded." Zhou Chen nodded slightly.

In his psychic perception, a faint stench lingered around his nose.

"Yeah, there must be a secret behind these monsters..." Xiao Liuzi subconsciously chimed in, but then suddenly froze.

"Brother Zhou, you mean there are already clues about the monster?!"

Chen Yunpeng and Yi Lianxing's eyes both turned to look at them.

They all sniffed and took a deep breath.

Apart from the chill of the night and the smell of dust in the air, there was nothing unusual.
