Heir to the martial arts world, starting with not crying at the Grim Reaper

In the flickering lamplight, Gu Jiu opened the box and found a blood-red pill inside.

Below the pill, some blood-red roots sprouted, resembling a human head with a beard, which looked quite strange.

Without saying a word, Gu Jiu stuffed the box into his pocket and began to search the corpse.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Fourth brother, what happened?"

Fourth brother?

Are the other accomplices of Xuan Gui Tang outside?

Gu Jiu quickly searched the corpse and found about twenty taels of silver.

As expected of a master turtle, he had more silver than those scoundrels, but not as much as he had imagined.

In fact, Gu Jiu thought this way because he lacked experience in the martial arts world. When traveling in the martial arts world, who would easily carry a lot of gold and silver or some kind of divine skill manual on their person? If they were killed by their enemies one day, wouldn't that be completely benefiting their enemies?

Especially if your enemy obtains the secret manual and masters it, and even develops extraordinary skills, what difference is there between that and your wife being taken by your enemy and then having his way with her? Can you die in peace?

At this moment, the knocking outside became more intense, as if there was more than one person knocking.

Without further hesitation, Gu Jiu picked up the box and the few pieces of silver, left the room, and climbed over the wall in the inner courtyard.

In the darkness of night, the alleyway that was climbed over the inner courtyard wall was even darker, without a single light.

As Gu Jiu walked through it, all she could hear was her own uneven breathing.

The battle he had just fought was the most intense he had ever experienced in his life.

Since he mastered the Void Cloud Force, very few people have been able to withstand two of his "Cloak and Moon" moves. This afternoon in the pavilion, he even managed to kill two turtle men with a single palm strike.

In tonight's battle against the Xuan Gui Hall Master, the opponent took at least four hits of his "Cloak Under the Moon" technique, which even forced him to use "Turning Clouds and Overturning Rain" midway through the fight.

The fact that he is still panting and covered in sweat proves the opponent's strength.

There are many masters in the martial arts world, so they should not be underestimated.

This is also why he considered killing the accomplice who knocked on the door, but ultimately gave up.

There's no other reason than that he still needs to practice!

However, Gu Jiu was in a wonderful mood.

Even now, he still finds it hard to contain his excitement.

Men are indeed born with the genes for adventure and violence. The feeling of my blood surging and adrenaline soaring when I was fighting to the death with the other party was really exciting!

Very cool!

At the same time, Gu Jiu felt a great sense of accomplishment thinking about how he had ended the dangerous situation of being "bountyed" through his own efforts.

This is all because I have gained power!

This martial art is truly well-practiced!

He did a good job killing him!

In a state of excitement, Gu Jiu continued walking forward along the dark road.

Only then did he realize what was happening and take off the blood-stained cloak.

This cloak is truly unusable this time.

Besides being covered in stains, it was also broken.

When that turtle-man, the fourth hall master, used the hen claw technique, he scratched quite a few pieces of skin. There must be a lot of fragments in that room.

If the other party investigates along those fragments, then his cloak will become a clue and evidence.

He didn't know if anyone would investigate this matter, but he definitely couldn't keep the cloak.

Without further hesitation, Gu Jiu quickly tore the cloak into pieces and threw it into a nearby ditch.

And so, his cloak, which had claimed so many lives, drifted downstream.

Gu Jiu was still somewhat reluctant to part with him.

This was his first cloak since his debut, and it was made by hand from the fine cloth he had used to kill many enemies. It was worth the effort to acquire some sentimental attachment to it.

Damn it, it's all because of those bastards!

Gu Jiu quickened his pace and left Chunlai Town under the cover of night.

He needed to get back to Tianjing Town to sleep as soon as possible, otherwise the money he spent on the inn room would be wasted.

I've killed everyone who needed to be killed; I should be able to get a good night's sleep tonight.

……

Under the cover of night, four more people appeared inside the residence of the "Master of Xuan Gui Hall".

The first one to come in was the one who knocked on the door.

He is Li Chi, the third master of Xuan Gui Hall. He has the best relationship with Wang Li, the fourth master. Wang Li was introduced to Xuan Gui Hall by him, and the two are also neighbors.

Of the four, he was the only one who knew that Wang Li was about to take a powerful medicine to break through the Qi and Blood barrier, so he had been keeping a close eye on the movements at the Wang residence.

Sure enough, he heard noises at night.

He initially thought that Wang Li was simply refining the medicinal power after taking the powerful medicine.

Strong medicines are usually quite potent, and the user needs to exert their strength to digest them. The most common way to do this is to use martial arts to allow the medicine to quickly integrate into the bloodstream.

But the more he listened, the more uneasy he felt, because he heard the sounds of fighting, and there were more than one person involved, and it was very intense.

He didn't dare to help immediately.

Wang Li was attacked at home.

The other party dared to come to his door, so they must be no ordinary people. He didn't know how many people there were, and if he rushed in rashly, he would probably be in danger himself.

After all, he wasn't much better than Wang Li.

However, his long-standing friendship made it impossible for him to stand idly by, so he sent someone to deliver a message while knocking on the door, trying to scare away Wang Li's enemies.

But when the First Hall Master, the Fifth Hall Master, and the Sixth Hall Master arrived, there was no sound coming from inside.

This proves that everything is already done inside.

He rushed in first and saw the result he least wanted to see.

The one who died was his good brother, Wang Li.

Wang Li died a tragic death. Everyone here knew that he had mastered the Iron Head Kung Fu, yet he still died at the hands of his opponent.

That's so cruel!

"Who did it?"

Although Zhao Yu, the sixth hall master, was the last to enter, he was now showing the most anger.

Third Master Li Chi murmured, "Wang Li is probably going to break through his Qi and Blood barrier tonight."

The head of the hall, Meng Jie, exclaimed in surprise, "He has a powerful medicine?"

Li Chi nodded and said, "It is a Yinshan Ginseng Blood Pill."

Upon hearing this, everyone was filled with mixed emotions and quickly searched their surroundings, but found no trace of the medicine.

The eldest brother, Meng Jie, pondered, "From this perspective, it seems someone stole the medicine and committed murder!"

Everyone felt that this made sense, since the head of the hall had already seen the truth, and the others all had the hope of seeing the truth as well, and they deeply understood the value of a great medicine.

Especially the "Yinshan Ginseng Blood Pill," a top-grade medicinal herb.

For some reason, apart from the third brother Li Chi whose eyes were red, the expressions of the others were somewhat complicated, and some even seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

As fellow members of the Xuan Gui Hall, they always addressed each other as brothers. But there's a saying: "They fear both that their brothers will suffer and that their brothers will be as fierce as tigers."

In the eyes of the fifth and sixth brothers, if the third brother Wang Li really succeeds tonight, wouldn't he be able to completely overshadow them?

The eldest brother had a similar thought: if the third brother were to actually meet him, wouldn't the other party, who had always been a head shorter than him, be standing shoulder to shoulder with him?

He even wanted to strike up a conversation with the fairy elder Feng, who haunted his dreams.

Of all these people, only the third brother, Li Chi, had a genuine relationship with him.

Although they are both men who are obsessed with pursuing their dream girls, they have always been good friends.

Li Chi often dreams of chasing after fairies, but in several of his dreams, no matter how hard he tries, he always ends up with a fairy in his dream.

Is the fourth sister his fairy?

Every time, he felt it was absurd, but at this moment, when he saw the fourth brother's corpse standing there, he suddenly felt that everything was real.

The fourth sister is his fairy.

Although men can't be fairies!

So he had feelings for her!

At this moment, Meng Jie, the eldest brother, looked at the traces of the fight, especially when he saw Wang Li's corpse, and couldn't help but exclaim, "What terrifying palm techniques!"

"What terrifying palm strike!"

Everyone wore a solemn expression, filled with fear.

They all knew the extent of the Fourth Master Wang Li's Iron Head Kung Fu, yet the murderer defeated him precisely in his area of ​​expertise, demonstrating the murderer's cruelty and arrogance.

Upon seeing this, the third brother, Li Chi, burst into tears and said sadly, "From now on, we will never be able to eat Tie Tou's roasted chestnuts again."

Upon hearing this, the others were moved.

The members of Xuan Gui Tang often gathered together to eat and drink. Because the fourth brother, Wang Li, practiced Iron Head Kung Fu, they often made him use his iron head to stir-fry chestnuts. So the image of Wang Li's iron head stirring in the casserole, releasing a fragrant aroma along with the chestnuts, has always been a fond memory for them.

In short, whether it was because Wang Li's scalp had a natural sebum-like aroma or something else, they had never tasted roasted chestnuts better than "Iron Head Roasted Chestnuts".

Now that Wang Li's skull has collapsed and he has died, even if you used his body to stir-fry chestnuts, you probably wouldn't be able to stir-fry them properly. Naturally, the group was filled with grief.

The eldest brother, Meng Jie, gritted his teeth and said, "I will inform Elder Feng about this matter. This murderer dared to cause trouble here; Elder Feng will definitely uphold justice for Fourth Brother!"

"Furthermore, since this murderer took away Lao Si's Yinshan Ginseng Blood Pill, he won't be able to escape if he dares to distribute it in this area."

"The fourth brother's men are dead; we must do everything in our power to find his vital medicine!"

Everyone knows that the businesses in this area belong to the Ziyang Sect, and Elder Feng, as an elder of the Discipline Hall, naturally has eyes and ears everywhere.

If she so desires, once a rare and valuable commodity like the Yinshan Ginseng Blood Pill appears, it will certainly not escape her notice, and then the murderer will be easy to find.

At almost the same time, Gu Jiu was sleeping in the inn, holding "good stuff".

He was sleeping soundly.

This must be the most valuable thing he's ever touched among all those corpses.

That turtle man is really something!
