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

The cold wind, carrying ice particles, blew into the broken kiln like a knife scraping.

Outside the kiln, Chen Gouzi and his two companions huddled around the campfire, cursing under their breath. They were completely unconcerned that Lin Yuan and Yang Guo might run away.

Where could two sickly people who have been starving for three days and can barely stand go?

Deep inside the cave dwelling.

Following the original owner's memories, Lin Yuan forcefully pried open the moldy haystack in the corner.

A draft of wind blew in, revealing a dog hole under the haystack, barely big enough for a thin child to crawl through.

"Drill. Don't make a sound." Lin Yuan patted Yang Guo.

Yang Guo gritted his teeth and slipped in silently like an eel.

Lin Yuan followed closely behind.

The cave was full of broken tiles and frozen mud, which cut my skin and made the area on my back that had been hit by the stick feel like it was on fire.

Lin Yuan bit his lip so hard that it bled, forcing back the muffled groan and the blood.

As I crawled out of the dog hole, my face was covered in ice and snow.

The two dared not breathe too loudly, like two wild dogs clinging to the ground, desperately groping their way out of town under the shadow of the ruins.

They had barely run two miles when Lin Yuan's pupils suddenly contracted, and he abruptly shoved Yang Guo into a stinking muddy ditch by the roadside.

"Forest……"

"Shut up!" Lin Yuan covered his mouth tightly.

The wind direction has changed.

A faint, yet deathly, fragrance drifted in on the cold wind.

Accompanying this was the clear, crisp sound of silver bells.

At the intersection, a white horse stopped.

The woman on horseback was dressed in a Taoist robe, but her eyes and brows were filled with an unyielding murderous aura.

It was Li Mochou.

Behind the big tree, two undercover agents responsible for monitoring Lu Family Village had just noticed something was wrong, before their hands even touched the hilts of their knives.

The Taoist nun gave a cold laugh and lightly raised her delicate hand.

"Pfft! Pfft!"

Two streaks of silver light left no afterimage in the moonlight, and the two spies fell straight down in the snow before they could even scream.

The exposed skin is frost spreading at a visible rate.

In the muddy ditch, Yang Guo shuddered violently in fright.

But in the boy's eyes, besides fear, there was also a profound shock at the power that transcended mortals.

Ice Soul Silver Needle!

This is the deadly poisonous hidden weapon mentioned in the suicide note, capable of making someone scream for half an hour before finally dying even with just a scratch!

Hong Lingbo didn't even glance at the corpses on the ground. He flicked the reins and sped off towards the Lu Family Village, which was engulfed in flames.

Lin Yuan only released his grip when the sound of horses' hooves was completely swallowed up by the wind and snow.

The two climbed out of the ditch, their bodies covered in foul-smelling mud, but this nauseating stench served as an excellent barrier to mask the presence of living people.

"Brother Lin... is that martial arts?"

Yang Guo's jaw clenched; what he had seen and heard tonight had completely shattered his understanding of the world.

"That's right, only top-tier experts can be this powerful."

Lin Yuan raised his hand to wipe the mud off his eyelashes, took a deep look at the towering flames in the direction of Lu Family Village, and a chilling ambition flashed in his eyes.

"In this world, without martial arts skills, we're not even worth as much as dogs. Don't look back, don't turn around, just go!"

He pulled Yang Guo up, resolutely turned his back on Lu Family Village, and ran wildly towards Shili Pavilion.

The night was deep, and Shili Pavilion was as desolate as a ghost town.

Beside a half-collapsed pavilion, a dried-up well lies lying.

Lin Yuan stuffed Yang Guo into a mass grave a few dozen steps away: "You must not make a sound, and you are not allowed to come out."

"Brother Lin, it's too dangerous, let's escape together!" Yang Guo gripped his sleeve tightly, his stubborn eyes pleading.

"There's no escaping it. Once Chen Gouzi discovers we're missing, he'll immediately lead the officials to search the mountains."

Lin Yuan pried Yang Guo's fingers apart one by one, his eyes like a wolf's. "I want to live like a human being. This is the only way to survive."

After saying that, Lin Yuan, like a ghost, reached for the dry well and pressed himself tightly against the shadow of a boulder beside the well.

The cold air seeped straight into the bones through the tattered rags.

Lin Yuan bit his tongue, relying on the taste of blood in his mouth to stay awake.

I don't know how much time passed.

"Yuan Jun! He Yuan Jun! Where are you!"

A desperate, dying roar, like that of a wild beast, ripped through the night sky!

"boom!"

Outside the Shili Pavilion, an old tree as thick as a person's embrace was snapped in half by a violent and unparalleled shockwave! Splinters exploded like raindrops, hitting the rocks with a teeth-grinding bang.

coming!

A disheveled, seemingly mad old man stumbled into the wasteland.

His eyes were bloodshot as he frantically pounded his chest, each punch producing a dull, thunderous sound.

Wu Santong has gone mad with demonic possession!

"Get out here! All of you, get out here!"

With nowhere to vent his raging inner energy, Wu Santong angrily pushed out with both palms from a distance.

A sudden gust of wind swept up from the ground, and with a loud "bang," the half-broken pavilion was shattered into dust by the force of the palm strike! Tiles and broken pieces of wood flew everywhere.

A piece of gravel grazed Lin Yuan's scalp and flew out, leaving a bloody mark.

Lin Yuan lay prone in the mud, his heart almost stopping.

This is a top-tier master below the Five Greats!

Faced with such immense power, the lives of ordinary people are truly as fragile as a piece of paper!

After venting his anger, Wu Santong seemed to have lost all his strength. He slumped down beside the dry well, clutching his disheveled hair and weeping bitterly.

"Yuan Jun... Dali is so far away, I brought medicine to find you... Why won't you see me...?"

Just as he was struggling violently.

"Clatter".

Two things fell out from his torn clothes.

A tattered, blood-stained thread-bound book, and a small white jade bottle about the thickness of a thumb.

He landed right in the soft mud at the edge of the dry well! Wu Santong was completely out of his mind and didn't notice anything.

Lin Yuan's eyes instantly became bloodshot.

An opportunity!

The suicide note mentioned a chance to turn things around!

Just wait for this madman to finish crying and leave...

However, it seemed that fate was determined to cut off his path.

Wu Santong's crying stopped abruptly.

He suddenly twitched his nose, and his scarlet eyes, like two bewitching lamps, were fixed on the boulder where Lin Yuan was hiding.

"The smell of blood... Who is it! Who's hiding there!"

boom!

Wu Santong leaped up from the ground like an enraged bear, unleashing a terrifying, suffocating aura that pressed down like a tidal wave, instantly pinning Lin Yuan to the spot, his bones groaning under the oppressive force.

Oops!

The madman smelled the faint scent of blood that had seeped out from the cut on his scalp!

run?

Desperate!

At this distance, the opponent could easily shatter his internal organs with a single palm strike!

The despair he felt at his own tragic death, as expressed in his suicide note, gripped Lin Yuan's heart once again like a venomous snake.

A certain death trap!

In a fraction of a second, Lin Yuan's brain was working overtime.

The information in the suicide note flashed through my mind like lightning.

He Yuanjun!

This old madman's ultimate weakness is He Yuanjun!

He did not retreat or hide.

Instead, he swallowed a mouthful of blood, using the excruciating pain in his back to stimulate his nerves, and forcefully withstood the terrifying killing intent that felt like Mount Tai pressing down on him, rising up from behind the shadow of the boulder!

Facing Wu Santong's palm strike, which was powerful enough to split rocks and shatter stone, Lin Yuan's eyes widened in anger, and he roared with all his might!
