Back on Earth, I am the only cultivator.

Hong Yan was terrified and cried out, as if he had seen a ghost, and quickly retreated.

Heavenly-level martial artist!

That's a realm that many martial artists can't reach even after a lifetime of hard work, yet this one is only nineteen years old.

How could such a terrifying pressure suddenly erupt from that little girl who had previously shown no signs of internal energy fluctuations?!

"This power..."

Li Jing looked down at her right hand.

The dark golden divine rune swirled in his palm, emitting a warm yet domineering aura that instantly swept across his entire body along his arm.

At that moment, she felt that she was full of inexhaustible strength, as if she could smash the wall in front of her with a single punch!

Is this the power of a Heavenly-level martial artist?

No, this power was purer and more domineering than any martial artist she had ever seen!

"Senior Wu Fan..."

Li Jing murmured to herself.

At this moment, her admiration for Wu Fan reached its highest point.

A simple talisman drawn on her palm was enough to elevate this ordinary person to the heavens!

But when she saw her brother lying in the corner, spitting blood, the adoration in her eyes immediately turned into a raging fire.

"You bunch of bastards, you dare hurt my brother? Take this punch from me!"

Li Jing didn't know any advanced martial arts techniques. In her anger, she simply clenched her right hand and, relying on the surging power within her body, threw a straight punch at Hong Yan!

Hong Yan watched as Li Jing threw a punch that he couldn't dodge, but his years of fighting experience calmed him down.

He roared, his inner strength surging, his palms transforming into a dense, impenetrable blur as he met Li Jing's furious punch.

"Sky-Splitting Palm! Die!"

"boom!"

A dull, thunderous sound of flesh colliding echoed in the VIP room.

Hong Yan's seemingly fierce palm wind melted away the moment it met the fist wind, just like the remaining snow under the scorching sun.

Li Jing's petite fist, with overwhelming force, pierced through Hong Yan's defenses without any hindrance and landed solidly on his chest!

"puff!"

The crisp sound of bones breaking was clearly audible.

Hong Yan felt as if he had been hit head-on by a speeding truck, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His body became a blur as he crashed heavily into the tempered glass window of the conference room.

"Splash!"

The sturdy, bulletproof tempered glass wall was shattered, leaving a huge spiderweb-like crack.

Hong Yan slid slowly onto the marble floor like a lump of mud, convulsed violently twice, and then fell silent.

One punch, instantly killing a late-stage Earth-level opponent!

"Hiss~!"

A collective gasp filled the conference room.

Lu Feiyu, standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded.

He never expected that this seemingly harmless little girl from the Li family of Mencheng would be so terrifying when she made her move!

Li Jing withdrew her fist, slightly out of breath. Looking at the seriously injured Hong Yan, her heart was also filled with turmoil.

The power of that punch frightened even herself!

"Young Master Lu, don't panic. With me here, she can't cause any trouble."

Just then, the side door at the back of the VIP room was slowly pushed open.

An elderly man dressed in black walked in with his hands behind his back.

"Old Mo!"

Seeing the old man appear, Lu Feiyu, as if grasping at a lifeline, scrambled to hide behind him and pointed at Li Jing, shouting:

"Old Mo! Quick! Take down this filthy bitch!"

"She killed Old Hong! She must have a secret!"

The old man's name was Mo Tiexin, the Grand Elder of the Health Preservation Hall, and a true mid-stage Heaven-level martial artist!

Mo Tiexin glanced indifferently at the lifeless Hong Yan on the ground, then turned her gaze to Li Jing.

He sniffed, then suddenly let out a cold laugh:

"It's nothing but a paper tiger, all bark and no bite."

"Second Young Master, don't be fooled by her."

"Although this girl has abundant blood and energy, there is no internal energy circulation pathway in her body at all."

"If I'm not mistaken, she simply used some ancient, forbidden technique to forcibly drain her potential and increase her strength in a short period of time."

Upon hearing Mo Tiexin's words, Lu Feiyu and the other waiters immediately realized what was going on.

"So it's a secret technique!"

"You scared the hell out of me! I knew it! How could an ordinary girl suddenly become a Heaven-level martial artist!"

"Elder Mo is a grandmaster at the mid-stage of the Heavenly Realm. Dealing with this kind of showy display that relies on secret techniques is a piece of cake for him, isn't it?"

Lu Feiyu's face turned vicious again as he stared at Li Jing's body and lewdly said:

"You bitch, your secret technique won't last long, will it?"

"Once the effects of the secret technique wear off, I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Mo Tiexin stepped forward, his mid-stage Heavenly Realm aura sweeping towards Li Jing, and coldly spoke:

"Girl, I'll give you a chance."

"Hand over the secret technique you used to forcibly elevate your cultivation level, and I will grant you and your brother a proper burial. Otherwise..."

"Otherwise, you're as bad as a fool!"

Li Jing's pretty face turned pale, but the stubborn girl wasn't buying it.

She took a deep breath, once again activating the golden light of the divine runes in her palm. With a twist of her body, she transformed into a golden streak of light and rushed towards Mo Tiexin.

"Stubborn to the end!"

A cold glint flashed in Mo Tiexin's eyes, and he slammed out with his right hand. The internal force of a Heaven-level martial artist transformed into a phantom palm print the size of a millstone, sealing off all of Li Jing's escape routes.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The two exchanged several blows in the narrow meeting room in a short time.

Li Jing was not a true martial artist and had no combat experience whatsoever; she relied entirely on the magical power brought by the divine weapon talisman to hold on.

Each time they clashed palms, Mo Tiexin's insidious and icy internal force would cause her blood and qi to surge.

After several dozen moves, Li Jing noticed that the warmth in her right palm was gradually fading, and the golden power within her body was beginning to dry up!

Its power is waning!

"Damn it... we can't delay any longer!"

Li Jing gritted her teeth, looking at her brother Li Wen who was already unconscious in a pool of blood, and a decision flashed through her mind.

Senior Wu Fan said that this talisman can only protect her for a short time.

"Get out of my way!"

Li Jing roared, and the divine runes in her palm erupted with the last and most dazzling golden light. She then charged headlong into Mo Tiexin without regard for anything else.

Mo Tiexin frowned slightly, unwilling to fight this desperate attack head-on, and immediately dodged to the side.

However, Li Jing's move was just a feint.

In the instant she forced Mo Lao back, she used the momentum to turn around, scooped up Li Wen from the ground, and then slammed her shoulder hard into the floor-to-ceiling glass window on one side!

"Splash!"

The tempered glass shattered with a crash. Li Jing, holding Li Wen, used the last bit of strength left in her body to leap from the third floor, crashing heavily into the green belt below.

Ignoring the excruciating pain all over her body, she gritted her teeth, hoisted Li Wen on her back, and frantically fled through the complex alleys of the provincial capital.

"Damn it! That slippery brat!"

Mo Tiexin chased after her to the window, watching Li Jing's figure disappear rapidly into the alley, his face turning ashen.

Lu Feiyu also rushed over, angrily saying:

"Old Mo! Why did you stop chasing?!"

Mo Tiexin gave a cold smile.

"When I exchanged palm strikes with her just now, I left a tracking mark on her body."

"Her secret technique has expired and she will soon revert to being an ordinary person, burdened with another burden."

"In this provincial capital, she has no way to escape."

Mo Tiexin appeared calm on the surface, but was inwardly incredibly greedy.

"I'm going to have that secret technique she possesses that can rapidly increase one's strength!"

"If I catch up quickly, then the secret technique will belong to your Lu family."

This is an incredible opportunity!

If he could obtain this secret technique, Mo Tiexin would have a chance to reach the Grandmaster realm!

Thinking of this, Mo Tiexin said to Lu Feiyu:

"Don't worry, Young Master Lu, I'll go find that girl once I've recovered a bit."
