From Martial Arts Dungeon to Master of Martial Arts

Chapter 8 Pushed to the Limit, Rising Up in Resistance

"He's trying to make a quick buck," Mu Sheng said in a deep voice.

Wolf Four's brazen demand for it now shows he has no intention of staying here for long.

After all, if they offended everyone here, even the Little Knife Gang wouldn't be able to withstand it.

People can go crazy when they're in dire straits.

Mu Yun sighed and said, "I know. Recently, the Little Knife Gang and the Fierce Tiger Gang have been losing ground. Wolf Four is obviously trying to take advantage of the Little Knife Gang because he sees that they are about to collapse."

He patted Mu Sheng on the shoulder and said, "Now, our family depends on you. We can't afford to clash with them for the time being. As long as you can successfully master martial arts, Wolf Four won't dare to do anything."

"Judging from Wolf Four, it's clear I can't succeed," Mu Sheng said with a gloomy expression. "In that case, even if we can come up with ten taels of silver within this month, they won't let us go. They're after our house."

"I'll think of something. You don't need to worry about things at home," Mu Yun said in a deep voice. "Let's go inside first."

Mu Yun led Mu Sheng to the master bedroom.

Mu Sheng looked at the chicken, duck, fish and meat on the table and was immediately surprised to look at Mu Yun. Although there were two able-bodied people in their family, they could not have prepared such a sumptuous feast.

"Eat first. I borrowed some money from my colleagues, and with my family savings, it's enough for your meat supply for the time being."

"Brother!" Mu Sheng immediately looked at Mu Yun.

"Don't worry about things at home. Our whole family is counting on you now," Mu Yun said in a deep voice.

The sound of Zhou Fanhua crying came from inside the house.

"We should just give up on this place!! We can't possibly afford these expenses!"

Mu Yun didn't speak, but said to Mu Sheng, "Eat, don't disappoint me, Sheng'er."

This means they've staked everything on Mu Sheng.

"Hmm." Mu Sheng immediately picked up some meat with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth. For a moment, he couldn't tell what it tasted like.

After finishing his meal, he said, "Brother, let's pay back the rest of the money first. I have some pills that I can use for practicing martial arts."

He took out the Hundred Food Pills directly. The ones he bought from Jing Yu last time had all been used up, so he bought ten more.

For these reasons, he is not in a hurry to reveal his strength.

"Are you sure that's enough?" Mu Yun asked.

"That's definitely enough. After this meal, there's probably still quite a bit left. Pay back the debt first, and I can handle the rest," Mu Sheng said. "Otherwise, our family might not be able to make ends meet for a month."

"In that case," Mu Yun said. Although he wanted to act like the head of the family, the pressure of owing so much money was indeed too great.

If I can pay back part of it, things will be much easier.

"Alright, since you're confident, then let's do it your way," Mu Yun said.

"Brother, I know I can do it." Mu Sheng didn't reveal that she was already a martial artist, and clenched her fist, saying, "Don't worry."

Now is not the time to expose ourselves.

"I believe you," Mu Yun said in a deep voice.

Mu Sheng heard crying coming from inside the house.

...

After finishing his meal, Mu Sheng sat on the edge of his bed in his room. He did not choose to enter the dungeon today.

Instead, he silently picked up the rusty axe he had found in the warehouse.

It was getting late, and when he opened the window, he saw that the fire in Mu Yun's house had gone out.

He gripped the axe tightly in both hands, opened the window, and climbed out.

"Boom!!"

Lightning flashed across the sky. Mu Sheng quickly walked to the wall, sprinted up the wall in a few steps, and landed on the ground.

The fire outside went out, and the gradually spreading dark clouds made the whole street even darker.

Mu Sheng vanished into the darkness.

"Boom!"

Amidst the thunder and lightning, a torrential downpour began.

...

Wolf Four and a few of his men stopped under the eaves of a building to take shelter from the rain.

"This damn weather, it really changes in an instant." Wolf Four patted his already soaked clothes, his face full of annoyance.

"Fourth Brother, that kid from the Mu family has joined the True Yuan Temple. If he succeeds, won't he take revenge on us?" one of them said.

"That kid," Wolf Four sneered. "Do you think just anyone can master martial arts? In a month, unless you have extraordinary talent, it's impossible to succeed. I also entered the True Essence Temple, but I didn't succeed even after a month. Do you think that kid can? You're kidding me."

The reason he is now the fourth leader of the Little Knife Gang is actually because he once learned the Five Beasts Yuan Gong.

He didn't master it in a month, but he did in three months.

Unfortunately, the deadline for Zhenyuan Temple to recruit people has already passed.

"Hahaha, how could that kid possibly compare to our Fourth Brother?" The crowd exchanged glances and burst into laughter.

"Moreover, the Fierce Tiger Gang is currently dominating us, and their leader is even considering relocating. They've already bought a map out of the city. If we sell the Mu family's house to them, we'll get at least fifty taels of silver," Wolf Four said with a greedy look on his face.

Was he going to take those ten taels of silver?

He wants that house.

Moreover, he was certain that his family couldn't afford that money.

After all, the entrance fee to Zhenyuan Temple is ten taels of silver.

If they can't come up with the money, they'll take the house.

"This money is enough for us to make some money and find another place to settle things," Wolf Four said.

After all, these gangs don't survive because they're good at fighting; they naturally have connections with higher-ups.

"Fourth Brother's thinking is still the most profound," the others immediately echoed.

Wolf Four had a bright smile on his face, but once the money was in his pocket, he wouldn't take it out again.

Even with a map, venturing outside the city to other places could easily lead to encounters with monsters, and he had no intention of going on an adventure with the leader of the Little Knife Gang.

"Boom!" Lightning crackled and surged within the dark clouds.

"This rain isn't going to stop anytime soon," one of them said. "Fourth Brother, I'm going back now; I have things to do at home."

"Fourth Brother, we're in a hurry to go back too."

"Alright," Wolf Four waved his hand and said, "See you in the gang tomorrow."

Looking at the torrential rain, he had no intention of going back in the rain. He thought it better to wait and look around at the houses, deciding to find a place to stay for the night.

Everyone left one after another.

"Boom!" Lightning flashed continuously in the dark clouds.

Wolf Four suddenly narrowed his eyes. In the flashing lightning, a man with his face covered by a cloth was slowly walking out of the rain.

"The Fierce Tiger Gang!?"

Mu Sheng gripped the axe tightly with both hands, her eyes fixed on Wolf Four, and slowly approached him.

Wolf Four's face immediately broke into a bright smile: "It's you, Mu family brat! You really think you can spar with your grandpa Wolf Four after just a couple of days of martial arts training?!"

Mu Sheng remained silent, then quickened her pace and charged directly towards Wolf Four. With a light tap on the ground, she leaped high into the air, wielding her axe and slashing at Wolf Four.

"Die!!"

A flash of lightning illuminated his figure.
