The Return of the Condor Heroes: Starting with a Suicide Note and Conquering All Realms

In the night sky, golden waves of energy rolled like raging tides, crashing down on Ouyang Feng, who was going berserk amidst the ruins.

Lin Yuan flashed into the shadow of the thick peach tree, his gaze fixed on the two supreme true energies about to collide in mid-air. Without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed Yang Guo's philtrum with his backhand, his fingernails like rusty iron nails, mercilessly cutting into the flesh and instantly grinding out beads of bright red blood.

"Ouch! Brother Lin?" Yang Guo winced in pain, his brows furrowing tightly.

"Cry." Lin Yuan's voice was extremely low, radiating an undeniable coldness. "Cry your heart out."

Yang Guo was stunned for only half a breath before instantly understanding the deadly intent behind it. A ruthless glint flashed in the young man's eyes, and he suddenly opened his mouth, forcing out two streams of tears through the piercing pain from his philtrum.

"Dad! Stop hitting him! I'm not dead! Uncle Guo, please don't kill my dad!"

This piercing cry, just as the Dragon Subduing Palms were about to strike Ouyang Feng, abruptly tore apart the explosive burst of true energy.

In mid-air, Guo Jing's burly figure suddenly froze.

The moment he heard the call, he forcibly withdrew three-tenths of the force he had unleashed with his palm. The violent Dragon Subduing True Qi instantly backfired, Guo Jing's face turned deathly pale, and when he landed, his chest heaved with blood and qi, and he staggered half a step, but he still instinctively stood firmly in front of his wife and daughter.

Ouyang Feng, upon hearing the voice, froze in his frenzied movements. The old poisoner abruptly turned his head, his blood-red eyes piercing through the night mist, locking onto the slender boy behind the peach tree.

"son!"

Without hesitation, he dispersed his protective aura, completely disregarding Huang Rong who was almost within reach. Like a mad bear, he smashed through the peach branches along the way, tumbling and crawling to Yang Guo, where he pulled him tightly into his arms.

"My dear son, you didn't drown... I thought you were dead..." The old poisoner's tears, mixed with the mud on his face, streamed down his face. His withered hands trembled violently, the force almost breaking Yang Guo's ribs.

Guo Jing took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the surging blood within him. His gaze swept over the ruined study, finally settling on Guo Fu, whose face was covered in ink and who lay slumped on the ground. His brows furrowed into a tight knot.

"Rong'er, what's going on? How come Ouyang Feng is here? And how come Guo'er is here...?" Guo Jing's chest heaved violently, his eyes wide open.

Huang Rong wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, her face ashen as she stared at Lin Yuan and Yang Guo under the shadow of the tree.

How quick-witted was she? The broken beam in the study, the copper coins scattered on the floor, Ouyang Feng's sudden outburst, and Yang Guo's perfectly timed appearance... these clues flashed through her mind like lightning. In an instant, she saw through the scheme, an extremely vicious yet flawlessly executed trap!

"Brother Jing, ask your good daughter yourself what good things she did tonight!" Huang Rong gritted her teeth, her nails digging deep into her palms.

Guo Jing turned his head, his gaze sharp and fixed on Guo Fu.

Sweeping across her face with her father's extremely authoritative gaze, Guo Fu trembled violently, her psychological defenses completely collapsing. She burst into tears, crying out, "Father! I was wrong! I only wanted to scare Yang Guo. It was Da Wu and Xiao Wu who trapped him with the iron net, and the net got stuck... I really didn't mean to kill him!"

These words struck Guo Jing like a heavy hammer blow to the spine.

Guo Jing's eyes widened in fury, and his burly body swayed violently. His own disciple and daughter had actually conspired to murder the only child left by his sworn brother Yang Kang! The principles of "chivalry" that Guo Jing had upheld throughout his life were, at this moment, trampled and crushed to pieces by his own flesh and blood.

"You...you all..." Guo Jing pointed at Guo Fu and the Wu brothers, who were trembling like leaves in the distance. He was so angry that he was shaking all over, and his throat was filled with a strong taste of blood. He couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

Just then, Lin Yuan, who was standing next to Yang Guo, suddenly burst into a violent cough.

He was hunched over, his face as pale as paper, as if all his life had been drained away, and he slid weakly down the rough tree trunk.

"Master Guo..." Lin Yuan's voice was extremely hoarse, with a heartbreaking tremor, "My brother and I... had cheap lives. Guo'er just wanted to go to the beach to collect some seashells, but he almost got drowned in the iron net. If it weren't for our godfather arriving just in time, there would be no Yang Guo in this world."

He slowly raised his head, his cloudy eyes filled with tears of despair.

"Master Guo, the threshold of Peach Blossom Island is too high. Our lowly lives are simply not worthy of your attention. We beg you to have mercy and spare our lives... please let us go."

Every word was written in blood, every sentence pierced the heart.

These words were like a thousand arrows piercing Guo Jing's heart, completely piercing his soul.

The renowned Northern Hero's eyes instantly reddened. He strode forward, raised his calloused hands, and with thunderous fury, slapped Guo Fu across the face without mercy.

"Snapped!"

A loud bang rang out. Guo Fu was sent flying several feet away by the slap, crashing heavily onto the grass. Half of her cheek instantly swelled up, and blood mixed with broken teeth spilled from the corner of her mouth.

"You beast! I, Guo Jing, have always acted with integrity and uprightness. How could I have given birth to such a vicious daughter as you!" Guo Jing clenched his fists, roared to the sky, and his voice was filled with endless sorrow.

Huang Rong watched her daughter being sent flying, gritting her teeth so tightly she couldn't utter a sound.

She stared intently at Lin Yuan's face, which looked so weak it seemed he might die at any moment, her eyes revealing a chilling killing intent.

A calculated, overt strategy. This is a deadly, overt strategy!

This sickly fellow, through Ouyang Feng, destroyed the study and stole the incomplete scrolls, and now he can even turn the tables with the most servile attitude! He positions himself as the absolute victim, crushing Guo Jing's weakness and making Peach Blossom Island completely in the wrong. Even with her thousand schemes, Huang Rong couldn't utter a single word of rebuttal!

Facing Huang Rong's icy gaze, which seemed to want to devour him, Lin Yuan did not flinch.

He simply closed his eyes weakly, raised his hand to cover his mouth again, and let out a heart-wrenching cough. A trickle of bright red blood slowly seeped out from between his pale fingers, making him look utterly miserable.

However, beneath this painful, dying skin...

Deep within his dantian, the raging "Monarch Flame" internal fire flowed silently with an air of dominance over the world. The fragment of the Nine Yin Manual he had just stolen was reflected in Lin Yuan's vertical pupils, hidden in darkness and burning with a dark golden light.

The supreme martial arts of the low-level martial arts world are being peeled away and devoured layer by layer by the terrifying analytical ability of the dragon bloodline.
