Chapter 36 Blood
Chapter 36 Blood
"Boss, I heard this family has a position in the Canal Gang. Are we really going to steal from them? If we offend such a big shot, we might get beaten to death."
Beside the scoundrel, his henchman spoke with trembling lips.
"What should we do? The only person we can contact who might have food is this person."
Remember, if he spots you, run! I'll cover your retreat.
Even if I'm beaten to death, you must never turn back. We can't afford to delay any longer with our godfather.
Zhou Yu's expression was solemn, and he resolutely jumped down.
Seeing this, the others gritted their teeth and jumped down as well.
As soon as they jumped down, Zhou Yu and the others felt their hair stand on end.
They stared blankly at the location of the room, an intense sense of crisis rising in their hearts.
"Clatter~"
A gust of cold wind blew by, and the wooden bucket placed next to the gate fell to the ground.
A strange sound rang out in the quiet courtyard.
"Boss, I... let's go again... I... I've already peed."
"Go to hell, run!!!"
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Yu and his men leaped over the mud fence and ran towards the outside of Rat Street.
The smell of urine permeated the entire journey.
Inside the room, inside the blood cocoon, came the sound of a heart beating.
A hand suddenly shot out from in front of the blood cocoon.
Chen Ran, standing at 1.9 meters tall, with his muscles fully developed and his body sculpted like a sculpture, appeared in the room.
After a while, as the strange noises disappeared, Chen Ran slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes were filled with indifference.
Then, the focus shifts, and humanity returns.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"
"Now I understand what Master meant when he said that a failed breakthrough could result in severe damage to one's vital energy, or even death."
Feeling the power surging within him and recalling the hallucinations he experienced during his breakthrough, Chen Ran felt a wave of fear wash over him.
In that hallucination, a blood-kissed snake the size of a small mountain stared intently at him with vertical pupils.
The feeling of being targeted by a great terror is worse than death.
"The martial arts of this world have problems, very serious problems!!!!"
This was Chen Ran's first thought.
But the power constantly generated within his body clearly told Chen Ran that this power was very strong, extremely strong.
What would happen if they could keep breaking through like this?!
Breaking through the limits of what it means to be human?!
Or perhaps, on par with the gods?!
"Since we've chosen this path, let's see it through to the end."
Perhaps, the legendary immortality can truly be achieved in this world?
Chen Ran quickly adjusted his mindset. Since he had already embarked on this path, there was nothing to regret.
A glint of ambition flashed in his eyes.
Then, it dissipated.
For now, I should think about how to survive in this world.
………….
The morning sun shone on the earth, and Chen Ran was speechless as he looked at the footprints in the yard.
It seems like any cat or dog can just walk into my house.
Fortunately, they didn't go into the room last night.
Otherwise, there might be another bloodshed.
After casually filling a basin with water and wiping himself clean, Chen Ran went into the courtyard.
"panel."
Name: Chen Ran
Age: 19/80
[Realm: Blood Refining Level 2]
[Skills: Tongbei Stance (Mastery) △; Tongbei Fist (Minor Mastery); Giant Ape Limit Breaking Technique (Minor Mastery) △; Divine Form Step (Minor Mastery)]
[Talents: Savage; Demon Eye]
[Blue Seal: 0]
[Red Seal: 1]
The panel hasn't changed much compared to before, but a '△' has appeared after Tongbei Zhuang and Giant Ape Breaking Limit Technique.
What this means is self-evident.
Chen Ran used the red seal directly.
[Skill: Giant Ape Limit Break Technique (Mastery)]
Arriving in the center of the courtyard, Chen Ran couldn't wait to begin cultivating the Giant Ape Limit Breaking Technique.
………….
Matoushan.
Yan Family Village.
This is a village near Matou Mountain.
In previous years, even after the animals had gone into hibernation, sounds would still occasionally come from the nearby Matou Mountain.
But at this moment, the entire village seemed unusually quiet.
The muddy dirt road was deserted, and every house had its doors tightly shut, devoid of life.
A light mist enveloped the entire village, creating a quiet atmosphere with an inexplicable stillness.
"Da da da~"
The sound of horses' hooves broke the silence of the mountain village.
A short while later, a troop of soldiers in armor appeared outside the village.
The leader, dressed in a gilded Mingguang suit, had a square face and gave off an air of grandeur and majesty.
This man was Sheng Chong, the Qinghe Commandant stationed in Qinghe County.
Beside him were several martial arts school owners dressed in shorts.
These individuals are all martial arts school owners controlled by family forces within the city. Apart from three who are three-blood martial artists, the rest are two-blood martial artists.
Upon arriving at the destination, Sheng Chong arranged for personnel to go in and conduct a search.
"Captain Sheng, it's been a month since we started searching, what exactly are you looking for?"
One of the men, a burly man with a thick beard and a face full of scars, complained.
Sheng Chong turned his head and looked at the person who had spoken.
"Master Liu, this is a confidential matter within my Qinghe Guard. Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
All you need to do is cooperate with us.
Sheng Chong spoke calmly, his words carrying a hint of warning.
"snort."
The conversation ended unhappily.
Liu Dapeng has a fiery temper and bullies men and women; he is the most notorious bully in the East District.
Leaving aside the fact that Sheng Chong is also a three-blood martial artist.
Even in the face of a well-organized regular army like Qinghewei.
Even a warrior with three blood points can be overwhelmed and killed.
"Sir, that thing is indeed here."
Soon, the scout who had been sent in first came up to Sheng Chong with his head down and said something.
Throughout the entire ordeal, the scout never raised his head.
"Good, good, good, the whole army is ready, advance!"
Just as he was about to find what the person above had entrusted to him, and thinking of the reward he was about to receive, Sheng Chong was overjoyed.
With Sheng Chong's order, a well-organized army of several hundred men slowly advanced towards Yan Family Village.
However, they did not notice that the surrounding fog had become even thicker.
The footsteps slowly disappeared into the mist, as if they had never been there at all.
Soon, the village returned to silence, as if it had never been noisy at all.
………….
"Impressive, the Great Limit Break Technique of the Giant Ape has such a terrifying bonus after it has reached its peak."
Feeling the qi and blood accumulating within his body at a snail's pace, Chen Ran exclaimed in amazement.
This was Chen Ran's genuine exclamation.
Before experimenting with the Giant Ape Limit Breaking Technique, Chen Ran had already practiced the Tongbei Stance several times.
The result is that Tongbei Zhuang (a type of standing meditation) has almost no effect on the body's Qi and blood.
Clearly, this back-to-back stance has come to an end.
Even if you upgrade it to perfection, it won't be of much use.
As for the strength of the second bloodline, Chen Ran planned to keep it a secret for the time being.
The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.
He had personally witnessed how Ke Sheng, this genius disciple, was tricked to death.
He did not want to repeat the mistakes the other party made.
The best approach is to focus on developing your skills cautiously and patiently.
However, even when money is scarce, some powerful figures in the surrounding area might still try to take advantage of the situation.
After his breakthrough, Chen Ran became bolder.
