Chapter 64: Don't You Know I Practice Hard-Body Cultivation?

Chen Yan walked quickly out of the courtyard.

People greeted him along the road, and Chen Yan returned every greeting with a smile.

Above the sky, there were no waves and no ripples.

Deep within Chen Yu's pupils, golden runes were engraved; at this moment, she was completely merged into the Void, watching her Elder Brother exchange greetings with the folks from their Hometown.

Immediately following, her line of sight shifted.

Atop a small two-story building, a Blue Robe Man wearing a duck-tongue cap stood quietly with his arms crossed, watching Chen Yan, who was walking along the Xiang Lu, with an indifferent Mu Guang.

He stood there just like that, yet his own rhythm seemed to have merged into the surroundings; even though the family downstairs was still eating in the courtyard, they had not discovered him at all.

"A genius with Thirty Patterns." A Smile appeared on the corner of the Blue Robe Man's mouth as he looked at Chen Yan:

"It was clearly just an ordinary mission, yet they gave me Five Million; it's truly worth a lot."

A look of covetousness appeared in the Blue Robe Man's eyes, and he did not notice at all that within the Void above his head, a Mu Guang that was cold to the extreme was being cast down upon him.

The next moment, the Blue Robe Man's figure flickered and appeared on another rooftop, following closely behind Chen Yan.

"Master, make your move on him now!"

Within the Void, Chen Yu whispered.

"I cannot; you cannot withstand my power. Once I strike, the house of this family will turn into a Void."

Chen Yu nodded, Golden Light surging in her pupils, and followed the Blue Robe Man.

"No matter what, I cannot let him make a move on my Brother!"

Chen Yu said in a low voice, trembling.

"Very well." The Red Skirt Woman smiled gently:

"It is fine, do not worry, I am here."

She could clearly feel Chen Yu's worry.

"Mm." Chen Yu nodded.

The scorching sun hung high, melting stone and turning gold to liquid.

The summer afternoon was like a painting dyed by intense heat.

Chen Yan walked steadily along the Xiang Lu, wild grass green beside him, branches and leaves swaying, and a rich fragrance lingering in the warm Wind Element.

Soon, he entered the Qingshan.

The fresh and deep scent lingered on his Nose once more, and Chen Yan took a deep breath.

The last time he came to this place, his heart was filled with reverence, trepidation, and worry.

As for now...

The Smile on his face grew increasingly rich.

He climbed the Mountain.

His speed increased.

The surrounding forest was deep and the Ancient Tree towered, each branch twisted like a dragon; Chen Yan's body bloomed with flowing wind, causing the surrounding leaves to rustle.

Above his head, a blue-robed figure flickered constantly, appearing on one green leaf after another.

Suddenly, he paused.

He saw that below, the Youth named Chen Yan had stopped his Foot; in front of him was a red-haired spirit mushroom the size of a porcelain dish.

Surprise appeared in the Blue Robe Man's eyes, but he quickly stopped caring.

This red-haired spirit mushroom was truly worthless to him; only the children in the Hometown would care about it.

Let us send the other party on their way right here.

A look of contemptuous Laughter appeared on the corner of the Blue Robe Man's mouth; with a single hand, he drew, and a Black Gun appeared in his hand.

He was, after all, a little genius with Thirty Patterns; he had followed the other party for so long, and even now that he was almost above the other party's Crown, the other party still had not discovered him.

It was truly boring.

He had even wanted to start a battle to test his current strength.

He did not become a killer purely for money.

At the same time.

Within the Void.

Chen Yu grabbed her right Wrist with her left hand and aimed her right hand at the Blue Robe Man; within her fair Palm, Golden Light surged, and a golden dragon engraved with ancient Grain Mark appeared and condensed.

In the Consciousness World, the Red Skirt Woman made the same movement.

At this moment, she had taken control of Chen Yu's body and was going to Slaughter the Blue Robe Man in an instant.

The Dragon Eyes in Chen Yu's Palm were full of Ferociousness, the golden Scale lifelike, and at this moment, they were already aimed at the Blue Robe Man.

Suddenly.

"What a large red-haired spirit mushroom."

Chen Yan's voice broke the calm.

Silence!

The atmosphere grew increasingly tense.

In the Blue Robe Man's hand, white light flickered at the dark muzzle of the Spear, and terrifying power was about to gush forth.

"What a large red-haired spirit mushroom, tell me... is it large?"

Suddenly, the clear voice of the Youth resounded once again in the quiet forest.

The Blue Robe Man was Stunned, and Chen Yu was also Stunned.

Who was her Brother talking to?

"It really is very large, look."

Cold sweat seeped from Chen Yu's forehead.

The Blue Robe Man's Mu Guang shifted, his peripheral vision scanning the surroundings.

Still others?

Where are they?

None discovered!

"I am asking you..."

A hint of a hearty Smile appeared at the corners of Chen Yan's Mouth, and at this moment, he suddenly raised his head to meet the Blue Robe Man's Mu Guang.

"Is it big or not!"

Boom!

Rumble!

A terrifying explosive sound erupted from beneath Chen Yan's Foot, and a rolling River of power surged into the earth; the ground covered in green Herb suddenly surged like waves, and layers of soil billowed outward in all directions.

Chen Yan's entire body suddenly surged upward like an Arrow!

Bang!

The Blue Robe Man's Mu Guang suddenly shrank; at this moment, his right hand trembled, and he immediately fired his Spear.

A beam of white light shot downward.

It missed!

Not right!

It was that Chen Yan who had suddenly turned in mid-air to dodge this strike!

Such fast reflexes!

The next instant, the Youth leaped thirty Rice high, and in a flash, he appeared before him!

Just like that, he appeared.

One person stepped on a Tree leaf, the other stood suspended in mid-air!

In that moment of confrontation, time seemed to stand still.

The Red Skirt Woman's Mu Guang suddenly shrank, the movements of her hands stopped, and she was filled with disbelief.

Yet she saw Chen Yan, in the moment he was suspended in the air, raise his right arm like a dragon and arch his body in mid-air.

Roar!

A roar like a Tiger's howl resounded from the center of Chen Yan's Fist, and waves of Qi twisted, constantly gathering and constantly rotating.

Rotating, and rotating again.

Rising, and rising again!

The momentum became more and more terrifying, terrifying to the extreme!

When the Qi vortex condensed to its absolute peak!

He threw a punch!

Boom!

A suddenly turning and rotating gale erupted from this punch, instantly swallowing the Blue Robe Man's body.

Roar!

The Qi vortex roared out like a dragon!

The Wind Element howled, sounding as if ten thousand horses were galloping; one Tree after another collapsed, broken branches and wood flew everywhere, and the area within fifty Rice was a mess!

Entry-Mystical Grade 【Red Heart Fist】!

Exploded with Nine Strength Patterns!

"This!"

The Red Skirt Woman was stunned, and the golden dragon Array Patterns in Chen Yu's palms stopped erupting at this moment.

Even Chen Yu was stunned at this moment, her lips parted slightly, looking at her Elder Brother in disbelief.

"You!"

A roar filled with Anger erupted from the Mouth of the Blue Robe Man who had been blown away by the Tornado.

His upper garment was torn to shreds by the gale, and his body was covered in Blood Trace.

Clearly he was the attacker, yet he had been instantly ambushed by Chen Yan.

At this moment, there was no time to think about why Chen Yan possessed such combat power.

The Blue Robe Man raised the Spear in his hand toward Chen Yan.

Fire!

"Master, strike!" Chen Yu shouted angrily.

"No!" The Red Skirt Woman's eyelids twitched:

"Your Brother..."

Yet look!

Chen Yan, who had just landed, had an Indifference in his Mu Guang, and he actually charged toward the Blue Robe Man.

As he charged, the Qi waves from his body struck the ground, causing mud to splatter.

Flashing his body, Chen Yan dodged the beams of white light shot by the Blue Robe Man.

He approached rapidly like a galloping dragon.

"You're crazy!!!"

The Blue Robe Man's face revealed cold fear; at this moment, he could care about nothing else. White light erupted all over his body, he held the Spear with both hands, and rolling white light burst from his hands, surging into the Spear.

"Secret Technique - Cloud Gun Mystery!"

The Blue Robe Man let out a low shout, and from the muzzle of his Spear, beams of cloud-white light shot out, converging into a continuous stream that surged toward Chen Yan like a sea wave in an instant.

He was, after all, in the Hundred Meridians Realm!

The Hundred Meridians Realm!

He did not believe that a small genius from a County Town with Thirty Patterns could threaten him.

Yet, the next moment, a figure flickered, dodging.

At one moment, there was nowhere left to dodge.

To avoid it, one could only retreat.

The Blue Robe Man gave a Cold Snort, the Red Skirt Woman's brows furrowed deeper, and her Mu Guang trembled.

Then...

Chen Yan reached out his hand and grabbed.

"Haha...!" The Blue Robe Man laughed out loud, "You're using your hand to grab? You're crazy!"

Boom!

The white light was torn open by Chen Yan's palm; he did not retreat or dodge, and the moment his hand bloomed with white light, he closed in!

The Blue Robe Man's Smile stalled, the astonishment in his eyes reaching the absolute extreme.

The moment Chen Yan appeared before him, pitch-black Demon Grain Marks appeared upon the Youth's form.

In the eyes of others, Chen Yan became terrifying in this instant, like a Spirit, like a Demon!

Protective Pattern!

Upper Grade, Class A!

"Don't you know I practice Horizontal Refinement, here..."

Chen Yan raised his Fist high and smashed it down fiercely into the Blue Robe Man's terrified Pupil.

Boom!

A punch struck the face, the Blue Robe Man's head was knocked upward, and his Nose bridge shattered.

"What are you doing, scratching an itch for me?!"

Boom!

The Blue Robe Man's head was struck until he felt dizzy, white light erupted from his Feet, and he retreated violently backward.

He, in the Hundred Meridians Realm, was retreating!

He felt absurdly, why was he retreating?

But he had to retreat; the aura of the Youth before him made him feel Scream.

Bang bang bang bang!

White light bullets shot out from the opponent's Spear muzzle.

"Get away from me!!!"

The Blue Robe Man roared.

Chen Yan, however, had a Fierce Light in his Pupil, punching out against every single one of these white light bullets.

Nine Strength Patterns, Fourteen Skin Patterns, Four Tendon Patterns, Fourteen Bone Patterns!

Chen Yan used to have the greatest strength but a very weak constitution.

But now...

His Skin was thick and his Bone was hard!

The First Boundary of Horizontal Refinement, the Seventy-Two Patterns Extreme Forging Realm, is equivalent to the Five Viscera Realm plus the Hundred Meridians Realm of the Qi-Blood path.

Very few people can fully cultivate to Seventy-Two Patterns.

Even if one cultivates all Seventy-Two Patterns, the Tendon, Bone, Skin, and Strength each account for one-quarter.

Which means at most Eighteen for each of Tendon, Bone, Skin, and Strength!

Chen Yan now has Fourteen Bone Patterns and Fourteen Skin Patterns; looking at Bone and Skin alone, he is not far from the Jidan Realm Peak of the Seventy-Two Patterns Extreme Forging Realm!

And he still has the Protective Pattern!

This Qi-Blood Warrior of the Hundred Meridians Realm is very strong, but the bullets fired cannot cause Chen Yan serious injury.

"I ate very well today, do you know that?"

Chen Yan gave a Cold Snort, threw a punch, and an air vortex exploded, striking the Blue Robe Man's Chest.

Pfft!

The Blue Robe Man spat blood, the Scream in his eyes reaching the absolute extreme.

Bang bang bang!

He became panicked, and the direction of the bullets in his hand became somewhat chaotic.

The next moment, Chen Yan kicked out, and a gust of Wind Element slammed into the opponent's Chest.

"Madman!"

The Blue Robe Man was kicked into Flight, his complexion turning to Paleness.

Looking ahead, the Demon-like Youth was charging toward him, and despair surged in his eyes.

"This is the happiest day I've had in a long time!"

The Blue Robe Man Stood Up in a panic and fired his bullets!

Chen Yan's Smile grew wider, his killing intent grew thicker, and his punches became more fierce.

Boom boom boom boom!

Thunder Element fist energy struck out viciously.

Entry-Mystical Grade 【Eight Styles of Extreme Refinement】!

High above, the Red Skirt Woman's eyelids twitched wildly.

"So you have come to kill me."

"Why must you be such a buzzkill?"

Chen Yan threw a punch, slamming into the Blue Robe Man's shoulder; with the momentary impact, the latter's shoulder caved in with a 'Crack!'.

"Ah!!!"

A scream resounded through the quiet Senlin.

"I, Chen Yan, whose path have I been blocking, exactly?"

Crack!

The Blue Robe Man's thigh was snapped by Chen Yan's stomp.

"Ah!!!"

The Blue Robe Man's complexion turned deathly pale in an instant, and he helplessly stretched out his hands.

Chen Yan unleashed a sweeping kick.

"Why did you have to pick today? Don't you know I'm in a very good mood today?"

Crack!

The Blue Robe Man's forearm bone fractured!

"Tell me!"

Chen Yan stepped onto the opponent's chest, rolling force pressing down; the Blue Robe Man's upper body sank deep into the soil, terrified to the extreme.

"Who told you to ruin my mood?!"

Chen Yan's cold Mu Guang collided with the Blue Robe Man's; the latter's throat moved, his Mouth wide open, struggling for Breath.

"I don't know."

Crack!

Force circulated under Chen Yan's Foot, and the opponent's chest caved in.

"Chen Yan!"

Within the distant Senlin, a group of people rushed over.

It was Si Wenyi and the Black-Clothed Man, and behind them were over a dozen personnel wearing Martial Officer uniforms.

Chen Yan had pressed the distress function on the Martial Merit Card back at Jia Li.

The Martial Merit Card had a tracking function, which was how Si Wenyi and these people were able to arrive so quickly.

Then, they saw such a brutal scene.

"Tell me!"

Chen Yan shouted lowly, applying force with his Foot again, the man's Bones clicking and clacking.

"I really... don't know!!!"

He let out a desperate Howling.

Boom!

Chen Yan stepped down, and the opponent's right hand was crushed directly.

"Ah!!!"

The horrific, inhuman scream made the eyelids of Si Wenyi and the others twitch wildly.

"Chen Yan, are you hurt...!" Si Wenyi spoke hurriedly, arriving at Chen Yan's side.

The remaining Martial Officer personnel did not approach for a moment.

Crack!

Chen Yan snapped the opponent's left hand.

Si Wenyi pressed her red lips together tightly:

"Hand him over to us; we will interrogate him."

Chen Yan calmed down and looked at Si Wenyi:

"I was in a car accident last year!"

"I... I know."

"My Sister was also in a car accident!"

"I know that too." Si Wenyi nodded.

"I am being targeted by the Chu Family!"

"He came to kill me!"

Chen Yan's Mu Guang was cold:

"I can become stronger, and I will accomplish things others cannot.

... I don't want to be a headless fly."

"I... will... we will help you."

Silence.

In the Senlin, only the Blue Robe Man's screaming remained.

Soon, the opponent was injected with a sedative by the Martial Officer personnel and taken away.

"Are you alright?"

Si Wenyi looked at Chen Yan with concern.

"I'm fine, thank you."

Chen Yan reined in the baleful energy in his heart and spoke again:

"Thank you."

"Mm, it's nothing."

Si Wenyi spoke:

"Vice Chief Shen Yiwei asked me to tell you that we will protect your family."

Only then did Chen Yan's coldness subside; he looked deeply at the surrounding Dense Forest, not knowing what he was thinking.

But the Anger in his heart had accumulated, wanting to erupt.

It is like this today.

What about tomorrow?

The world is like a giant maze; being inside it, one is confused, and the road ahead is long.

"Who do you think it is?"

"Chu Feiyuan," Chen Yan said calmly.

Does the other party have the intention to kill him?

I don't know.

It is just that the other party is easy to kill, and he can see it.

Only by killing them can his heart feel refreshed.

His Mu Guang became calm, as if that raging Fierce Beast from just a moment ago was not him.

The current him is very calm, very genial, and very gentle.

High above in the sky, Chen Yu watched her Elder Brother.

For some reason, it was as if she had suddenly gotten to know him all over again.

Her heart felt a tugging sensation.

Her mood became low and complicated.

It is a good thing that her Brother joined the Martial Officer Town.

In the Consciousness World, the Red Skirt Woman gazed deeply at Chen Yan.

All previous perceptions of Chen Yan were completely shattered at this moment.

Unaccountably, she actually began to feel some admiration.

This Youth possessed something she did not have.

It was very intense, very shocking.

"Teacher..." Chen Yu murmured.

"Are you discouraged by your brother?" the Red Skirt Woman spoke.

Chen Yan is truly a Horizontal Forging Prodigy!

"I feel my brother is in so much pain." Red light flickered in Chen Yu's eyes.

What was it that forced her brother to become like this?

Thinking this, Cold Light leaked from her heart, and she Clenched Fists.

That feeling of resentment grew increasingly thick.

Killing intent soared!
