Republic of China Era: Entering the Dao through Divine Strike.

Looking down, he let out a loud wail.

His legs were severed at the knees.

The opponent's knife was so fast that it was completely invisible.

"Tell me, who killed my brother White Wolf? If you tell the truth, this leg might still be able to be reattached."

Your daughter is still young and hasn't experienced the riches of life. I'm sure you wouldn't want to see her die so young.

"Japanese barbarians..."

Zhang Mingyuan stared blankly at his wife, thinking about all the things that had happened in the past, and a great deal of regret welled up in his heart.

He vaguely remembered the words the boy in the Nezha mask had told him that evening.

You are very old-fashioned, and I don't like you at all.

But seeing that you had quite a bit of spirit before, I won't do anything to you.

If you want to live, you'd better sew your mouth shut... You've never been here before.

'So, that person foresaw today's situation and now deeply regrets their actions.'

He looked at his wife's frail body, lying in a pool of blood, her eyes wide open in death...

The words from this morning, "We barely escaped with our lives, can't you just pretend you don't know? If something else had happened to us, how would we, mother and son, have survived?" echoed in my ears again.

The sound grew louder and louder, making Zhang Mingyuan dizzy and unable to hear anything.

'She wasn't ignorant; I was. It turns out I've been wrong all along.'

"Oh, heavens, how have you treated me so cruelly?"

chi...

Two flashes of light appeared, and Zhang Mingyuan and the little girl fell to the ground in a pool of blood at the same time.

Yagyu Haruno was furious.

"You're tough as nails, fine, I'll grant your wish. Did you think I wouldn't find that person if you didn't tell me? Investigate, investigate thoroughly."

I will turn the capital of China upside down, find that man, and peel his skin off inch by inch.

"Lord Yuanye, there is news about Lord Xuantong."

After receiving the mission, Ming San left a log stating that he was going to observe the whereabouts of "Nezha, the Third Prince."

A swordsman rushed over and bowed to report.

"What? The Great God of the Three Altars and Seas?"

Yagyu Genno is very familiar with the story of Journey to the West and the release of evil spirits.

Of course he knew who Nezha, the Third Prince, really was.

"I'm not talking about that great master. I'm referring to a young martial artist in the capital of China who wears a mask of a great master and acts as a chivalrous hero."

"I know who it is."

Nezha, the Third Prince, wreaked havoc in the capital, killing members of the Qing-brand gang, officials, and constables...

They even slaughtered their fellow martial arts practitioners in the capital.

It can be said that no one dared to kill him, and no one was incapable of killing him.

He had even heard that the young man was incredibly audacious, daring to kill even the Anssa people.

However, the people of this country tend to exaggerate certain things.

A martial artist with even a little skill can be touted as a god descended from heaven.

Most of the news is a mix of truth and falsehood, so there's really no need to take it to heart.

He heard it and then forgot about it, never taking it seriously.

Unexpectedly, this person was also connected to the death of his own younger brother.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be him."

According to the information left in the diary by Wuyin Mingsan, he was ordered by Lord Bailang to assess the martial arts skills of Nezha, the Third Prince.

Ming San left behind only this sentence, and the outcome was never revealed.

And then, he died here.

After finding the information, my subordinates sent people to investigate.

At the official road in the red pine forest outside the city, the wealthy merchant Anssa, the priest, and his thirty-six soldiers were all killed.

Two Templar Knights dressed in armor also died at the scene.

Gao Tianyun and the rest of the Crouching Tiger Village also perished in this battle, and the notorious bandit known as "the most ruthless bandit in the capital" was killed on the spot.

I heard that he couldn't even withstand a single move from the opponent.

"I think I remember that person's name was Li... Li something?"

"Li Xin has now become a disciple of the Cheng family's Bagua sect. Some time ago, he even killed Zhang Yuanhao of the Huiyou Escort Agency."

"Yes, it was him. How many people did he bring to carry out the attack?"

"one person."

The ronin who reported this also looked slightly alarmed.

According to witnesses, although the man was accompanied by a woman, he acted alone from beginning to end.

That immigrant group was utterly routed by him alone… all the experts were slaughtered with overwhelming force.

"This man is not only an expert marksman, but also incredibly strong and fast, so fast that even Gao Tianyun couldn't escape. He is extremely ruthless."

"How ruthless!" Yagyu Haruno took a deep breath. "I understand now. It must have been discovered when Meizo was spying on him, and that's when he came following the trail..."

"Little wolf, little wolf, I bear a great deal of responsibility for your death. If I had made you realize your true self sooner, things wouldn't have come to this."

He paced back and forth.

His expression shifted several times, and he muttered, "What a Li Xin, what a Nezha the Third Prince."

You made me experience the pain of losing my brother; I wonder if you could bear it if it happened to you?

He seemed to remember that the Bagua Boxing School did have disciples who came to the embassy district to provide security.

What was it called again?

That woman was as beautiful as a porcelain doll; I wanted to smash her.

……

After Yu Side hurriedly took his leave, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and felt a chill on his back.

He waited for a while, and when he didn't hear anyone speak in the courtyard again, he breathed a sigh of relief and staggered away.

"My lord, now that we know who did it, should we go to the Fire God Temple to arrest them?"

"Snapped!"

Yu Side slapped his subordinate hard across the face, making him spin around several times before spitting heavily.

He cursed, "Are you stupid? It wasn't my family member who died. Why would I bother to provoke them?"

"The body of Commander Wu of the Southern Camp is barely cold, and you dare to encourage me to go and die?"

bang...

With a powerful kick to the chest, he sent the policeman sprawling.

Seeing blood trickling from the other person's mouth, he calmed his anger slightly and growled, "Remember this: when you see this person, stay away from him. Do you know what that means? Avoid him..."

If I find out you fools are causing trouble, I'll chop off your heads first, to avoid getting dragged into it.

Do these people have no brains?

You think that just because you're covered in a layer of skin, no one will dare to touch you?

That's how it used to be.

But the world is completely different now.

Those kinds of vicious people are nothing to be afraid of, let alone a mere constable.

I'd probably dare to kill even the Heavenly King himself.

Who would dare mess with them?

"Yes, sir."

The police officer knelt down with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly.

……

Chapter 85 Destruction and Reconstruction

"Master, I have a question. After mastering the Great Strength, how can one achieve perfection more quickly, so that extreme strength gives rise to gentleness?"

Li Xin, having lived two lives, has his own understanding of martial arts.

However, this does not include the cultivation of internal strength.

After all, in my previous life, whether I practiced Sanda and martial arts, or military killing moves, or later I came into contact with boxing and Muay Thai, they were all external martial arts styles.

External martial arts are not so complicated; they pursue power and speed.

These things, through technological quantification, have formed a complete theory of cultivation.

If it works, it works; if it doesn't, it doesn't.

Those with less strength cannot defeat those with more strength; lightweights will always be at a disadvantage compared to heavyweights.

However, after arriving in this world, he discovered that some of his experiences from his previous life were no longer entirely applicable.

Here, a small person is not necessarily weaker in attack than a tall person.

The stronger one may not necessarily win against the weaker one.

The key element is internal energy.

'After all, we're no longer in the same world; we have to adapt to different circumstances.'

Here, internal energy is the greatest treasure I have seen and been able to obtain so far.

They have a clear path to promotion and their combat power is readily apparent.

The most wonderful thing is that he has one of the world's top masters personally instructing and guiding him.

To not seize such an opportunity is to fail to cherish a blessing.

……

Cheng Yuanhua had just finished practicing a set of punches and warmed up his body. He was thinking of going out to the martial arts field to check on the disciples' training when he saw Li Xin come up to him to ask for guidance, with a hint of longing in his eyes.

He felt a surge of relief.

Who doesn't like an ambitious disciple?

Not only are they ambitious, but they are also exceptionally talented disciples with astonishing combat prowess.

Any experienced teacher would be tempted to offer a few more pointers.

Unfortunately, this disciple never seemed to have many questions on a regular basis.

He rarely takes the initiative to ask for advice; he always practices on his own.

If they don't achieve anything remarkable, that's fine too.

However, he made rapid progress in his cultivation on his own, so fast that even his master was extremely shocked.

They don't seem like normal humans at all.

This would greatly reduce the enjoyment of being a master.

I always felt that I hadn't played a significant role in my apprentice's achievements.

'This is an illusion.'

Cheng Yuanhua chuckled: "Xin'er, although mastering the Great Strength Refinement is difficult, as long as you are determined, you can always achieve it."
