The Corpse Driver of Western Hunan: My profession panel has no upper limit.

"Mother, what do you mean by that?"

Ren Yang was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses, not knowing what Xu Wenjing meant by those words.

The next second, Xu Wenjing sneered, "What blind man's people? I think it was Hu Qiang who sent people to kill Zhenxing and his master, and then just found a scapegoat to appease our Ren family."

"Why do you judge this, Mother? Hasn't my elder brother already completed his cooperation with Commander Hu? Why would he still send someone to kill him?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Wenjing's face showed a sorrowful expression. "I told your older brother a few days ago not to get involved in the warlord conflicts, and he promised me."

"I think that's why Hu Qiang killed your elder brother and framed Commander Hu, so that our Ren family had no choice but to support him. He was also afraid of Zhenxing's master's revenge, so he had someone kill Zhenxing's master tonight as well."

"There are very few people in the entire Anyang County who could kill your elder brother and his master."

"This is outrageous!"

In an instant, Ren Yang's strength became violent, and he slammed his palm onto the chair, which shattered into pieces with a bang.

Ren Yang's eyes were filled with murderous intent and hatred as he gritted his teeth and said, "I will not let him go."

"So now that Master Li is dead, you must find a place to continue practicing martial arts. Only when you become strong in martial arts will you have a chance to avenge your elder brother."

"Then who should I go to?"

"Master Lin," Xu Wenjing exclaimed, "If he can teach a disciple like Master Lu, I think he can teach you too."

"To become Lu Jin's junior brother?" Ren Yang's eyebrows lit up with joy. "But Master Lin won't be taking on any more personal disciples."

"Mother will handle this matter, no matter the cost." A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Xu Wenjing's beautiful eyes.

"Leave tonight, under the cover of night, so you don't get discovered."

Although Ren Yang was puzzled and uneasy, he dared not refuse Xu Wenjing's order and immediately began packing his bags.

After Ren Yang left, she immediately summoned the housekeeper, Wang Fu, and said, "Over the years, our Ren family has never mistreated you."

"Please just tell me what you need me to do, Madam."

"At daybreak, everyone in the Ren family will set off for the ancestral graves. After Bochang and Zhenxing are laid to rest, we will kill all the other members of the Ren family."

"Madam!" Wang Fu's pupils were filled with shock. "This..."

"I just told A-Yang that Zhenxing was murdered by Commander Hu, but that's just one of my suspicions. Another suspicion is that it was someone from our own family."

Xu Wenjing spoke calmly, as if she were dead, "All of the Ren family's assets are here. Take these assets and liquidate them as soon as possible. Keep some for yourself, some for A-Yang, and some for Master Lu and Master Lin so they can take A-Yang in. Then find a warlord. As long as he can kill Hu Qiang, the rest of the money will be his."

"Madam, there's no need for that."

Wang Fu looked somewhat flustered. He had already sensed that Xu Wenjing was filled with a death wish, but Xu Wenjing waved her hand and said, "My mind is made up."

Seeing this, Wang Fu said no more and took the numerous house and land deeds in his hands, ready to cash them in.

The once prosperous Ren family was about to collapse and its members scattered in an instant.

At this moment, Lu Jin and Lin Tianzheng had already walked out of the gate of Anyang County. Lu Jin threw the jade pendant that Ren Yang had given him, along with all the silver dollars he had on him, to Lin Tianzheng.

They won some money betting on the martial arts competition, plus the reward for first place, and the second payment from the Ren family. They can now be considered wealthy.

"Master, when you go to Xiangdu, please sell this jade pendant. I don't need it. Then use all the money to buy top-grade medicine. I desperately need top-grade medicine."

"How could this be? Lu, you only need to prepare for the energy combination." Lin Tianzheng was very puzzled.

"Because I want to combine the strengths of all schools, Master, what kind of strength do you think I would have if I reached the highest level in all martial arts?"

Upon hearing Lu Jin's words, Lin Tianzheng's pupils widened suddenly, and his first thought was that Lu Jin had gone mad.

Looking at all the martial arts masters in the world, those who can master one skill to the extreme are already outstanding. If one were to master all skills to the extreme, would one still be human?

Lin Tianzheng wanted to say something, but in the end he held back and nodded, saying, "Ah Lu, be careful on the way. If you encounter the Faceless Yama and can't beat him, you must run away as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Master, I know what I'm doing."

After saying this, he and Lin Tianzheng parted ways. Their journeys were in opposite directions: Lu Jin went east, while Lin Tianzheng went west.

"The Faceless Yama, everyone says the Faceless Yama is terrifying, but my Lu Jin Great Spear has never been at a disadvantage!"

Lu Jin snorted coldly, his heart filled with anticipation. He still had one slot left in his corpse-looting skill, and he really hoped that the Faceless Yama could bring him something good.

He circulated his qi and blood, and a surge of powerful energy flowed through his arm into the bamboo pole, lifting the two corpses with his backhand.

Under the moonlight, Lu Jin strode swiftly through the darkness, while the corpses of Ren Bochang and Ren Zhenxing bounced around like zombies as the bamboo poles swayed.

From a distance, their white clothes made them look extremely terrifying.

If you take the normal road from Anyang County to the Ren family's ancestral graves, it's quite a long way. It would take an average person ten days to half a month to walk there. That's why many people in the world set off very early to pay their respects during the Qingming and Double Ninth Festivals.

But there is a shorter way, which is to cross the steep Jade Dragon Mountain.

Lu Jin looked up at Jade Dragon Mountain under the starry sky. It appeared to be several hundred meters high, but its area was extremely vast. The mountain range was connected, resembling a giant dragon. The forest was dense, and strange sounds could be heard from time to time, making one's pores involuntarily contract.

Lu Jin's expression hardened, and he immediately prepared to take a step towards Jade Dragon Mountain, but in the next second...

"Whoosh whoosh!"

The sound of rapid footsteps reached Lu Jin's ears, and as time went on, he could even hear heavy breathing.

Looking at the scene before him, Lu Jin knew he had nowhere to hide, so he quickly drew his Soul-Suppressing Spear and focused intently on what lay ahead.

In an instant, Lu Jin saw a figure dressed in Taoist robes. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Xu Yeqing, the Mountain Moving Taoist he had met earlier.

At this moment, Xu Yeqing was in a terrible state, his clothes were tattered, there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, his face was deathly pale, and his eyes were filled with fear.

When he saw Lu Jin, he immediately became alert, and his eyes were filled with shock after recognizing him.

"Brother Lu, what are you doing here?" Xu Yeqing visibly breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Lu Jin. Since Lu Jin was unharmed, he must be safe as well.

"Brother Xu, that's the question I should be asking you. I was just about to cross Jade Dragon Mountain when I happened to run into you."

Lu Jin pointed to the two corpses, and Xu Yeqing immediately understood everything. However, his expression became somewhat solemn, and his tone became louder.

"It's a long story, but this Jade Dragon Mountain is absolutely..."

"You can't go!"

"There is something dirty in Yulong Mountain. I almost fell for its trick and was on the verge of death. If I'm not mistaken, that dirty thing should be the Faceless Yama, one of the Four Ghosts of Western Hunan."

At this point, Xu Yeqing's body trembled slightly, clearly still shaken. He took a deep breath before continuing, "That was a ghost without a face or features. Brother Lu, you must not enter Jade Dragon Mountain, or you will be in mortal danger."

"Even I almost lost to him. I estimate that this guy is already equivalent to a Grand Martial Master at the peak of the Qi and Spirit Harmony realm."

"Brother Xu, now that you've said that, I'm even more eager to see it for myself."

Seeing that Lu Jin wouldn't listen to advice, Xu Yeqing became anxious. He and Lu Jin had been separated for a little over a month, and they had known each other for a while. He couldn't just watch Lu Jin lose his life for this corpse-transporting trip.

"Brother Lu, you absolutely mustn't! I'm no match for him. If you rush in like this, you'll surely die. Take my advice and give up this deal. I'm not joking."

"Brother Xu, have you ever heard this saying?"

"What do you mean?"

"A scholar who has been away for three days should be looked at with new eyes; I am no longer the person I used to be."

Lu Jin snorted coldly: "A mere wandering ghost, why would I avoid his sharp edge?!"
