Dual-wielding! 100x proficiency, I'll grind my way to godhood!

Shen Ze felt ice-cold all over.

The pain in my thigh was nothing compared to the chill in my heart.

The experts capable of instantly killing those at the Transformation Realm are hidden in the darkness above them.

The ability to fly means the opponent must be a grandmaster.

Moreover, the opponent crushed his greatest asset without even showing his face.

He dared not look up, nor even think about who the other person was or why they were staring at him.

All he knew was that killing him would be easier than crushing an ant.

At least for now, no one has directly taken drastic measures against him.

Once you get back to the county seat, you'll be completely safe.

Shen Ze lay prone on the horse's back, his thigh and buttocks struck by several darts.

But he couldn't care less; all he could think about was getting back to the county town as soon as possible.

"call out!"

The sound of something cutting through the air suddenly broke through the darkness overhead.

Shen Ze let out a howl, shrank his neck, and almost fell off his horse.

With a muffled "thud," the head of a Qi Control Realm guard next to him was smashed through by a pebble, exploding like a watermelon, splattering blood and flesh all over the people around him.

Shen Ze's pupils shrank to pinpoints, and his lips trembled.

"The third one...this is the third one..."

Han San lay sprawled on the horse's back, the bumpy ride making his face as white as paper, yet a twisted smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.

"Shen Ze, you don't have many men left. If you keep dying like this, you'll be next."

"We're both done for, we just need you."

He Er replied coldly, his voice completely flat.

"The sooner it's abolished, the less trouble it will cause, and the less you'll have to live in constant fear."

No sooner had he finished speaking than another whooshing sound pierced the air.

Another guard's head was smashed open, and he fell heavily off his horse.

Shen Ze panicked completely and screamed at the remaining guards around him.

"Surround them! All of you, make sure you're all close behind! Don't leave my side even for a second!"

The guards looked at each other, their hands trembling as they gripped their knives, but they still forced themselves to move closer to him.

Shen Ze, panting heavily, turned his head and glared at Han San and He Er.

"Which of you can escape? I'll give him half a dose of the secret medicine!"

Han San shrugged, looking completely indifferent.

"What other way is there? In my opinion, it would be better to have your guards disperse and leave you alone with the assassin. That way, the two of us can take the opportunity to escape."

"Han San, you've gone mad!"

Shen Ze was so angry that he was trembling all over.

"The three of us grew up together, and you dare betray me!"

"Sell it to you?"

He Er spoke softly, but his eyes held a deep resentment.

"We agreed to share the good times and the bad. Now that disaster is upon us, why should we be the only ones to suffer this unparalleled pain, while you, Shen Ze, are completely unharmed?"

Han San glanced at the panicked guards and suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Those who don't want to die, stay away from Shen Ze! He's the one they want to kill, it has nothing to do with you!"

"Think about it carefully."

He Er's voice followed.

"Those who died were all the people closest to him. Stay away from him and you'll live. Stay next to him, and you might be the next one to die."

The guards suddenly stopped.

We looked at each other, but no one spoke.

"You dare!"

Shen Ze's eyes turned red as he roared.

"Anyone who dares to take a single step, I will wipe out their entire family!"

No one cares about him.

The guard on the far right slowly turned his horse around and retreated.

Once there was a first, there was a second. In the blink of an eye, all the remaining guards dispersed, leaving a large circle of space around Shen Ze.

The torchlight flickered, and no one dared to look up at Shen Ze, nor did anyone take another step forward.

Shen Ze rode alone on his horse, surrounded only by the sound of the wind.

In that very second, several cold lights flashed simultaneously in the darkness.

Six darts flew in from six directions at tricky angles, completely blocking all escape routes.

Shen Ze was originally at the Qi Control Realm, but he was terrified. His hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't even hold onto the reins, let alone use his internal energy to defend himself.

"Pfft pfft pfft!"

All six darts landed squarely in his crotch.

Shen Ze froze for a second, his eyes widening in shock, before letting out a heart-wrenching scream and tumbling off the horse, crashing heavily to the ground.

He clutched his groin tightly with both hands, blood gushing out from between his fingers, staining the ground a large patch of dark red.

He curled up on the ground and rolled around, his voice hoarse from shouting.

"Ah...ah..."

Han San reined in his horse, looked down at Shen Ze rolling on the ground, and slowly curled up the corners of his mouth.

He Er also stopped his horse, a smile playing on his lips as he looked down at him.

The two looked at each other and burst out laughing at the same time.

"Oops, Shen Ze, you finally got hit by the dart."

Han San laughed until tears streamed down his face, tearing at his wound and hissing as he continued to laugh.

"God is so damn fair!"

"You two bastards..."

Shen Ze was in so much pain that his whole body was convulsing, and he cursed through gritted teeth.

"Hey, your insult is inaccurate! We're all out of balls now."

"Hahaha……"

Han San opened his mouth and laughed loudly.

He Er spoke calmly.

"What's meant to happen will happen. We've seized so many secret medicines, how can we let you enjoy this blessing all by yourself?"

Shen Ze, still hunched over, continued to curse.

"You deliberately scattered the guards, watching me fall victim to this attack, intending to wipe out the Shen family's lineage!"

He Er looked down at him indifferently, his tone cold and detached.

"If we're going to die without an heir, we should all die together. That's what good brothers do."

Shen Ze glared fiercely at the two of them.

"I'm going back to report you to my father, and he'll kill you both."

Han San waved his hand dismissively.

"You should worry about whether you can carry on the family line first. It seems you won't be able to inherit the Shen family's business in the future. Would your father risk offending both our families for a good-for-nothing?"

Chen Mo glanced at the three people below. Having achieved his goal, he turned around and flew back.

The assassin completed his mission and secretly left.

However, Wang Fucheng and his group were chasing after Shen Ze and his two companions. These people were deadly, so they dared not linger and continued on their way despite the pain.

As dawn broke, they changed horses several times before finally reaching the city gate of the prefecture.

The three men, pale from blood loss, went their separate ways, ignoring each other, dragging their wounds and carrying the secret medicine and wine they had been given, back to their respective families.

No one mentioned the injury to their groin; they couldn't bear the shame.

Holding onto a sliver of hope, he realized that bringing back the family's secret medicine and wine was of immeasurable value, so this haul wasn't a complete waste.

It's just a pity that he can no longer perform sexual acts.

The main hall of the Shen family.

Shen Ze was helped to sit down by his servants, and he had wine and secret medicine laid out on the table, his face full of smugness.

"Father, these are the secret medicines and 'male-strengthening wine' that are selling like hotcakes in Lin'an City, the only ones of their kind in the entire Great Yuan! Your son went through tremendous trouble to get them back, almost losing his life on the way!"

The head of the Shen family picked up a bottle of wine and shook it, then picked up a pill and looked at it against the light, his brows furrowing more and more tightly.

He unscrewed the bottle cap, and a pungent, strange smell hit his nose.

"What is this smell?"

Shen Ze spoke excitedly.

"Dad, this smells like wine! You should try some, it's incredibly fragrant."
