Realm-Hopping Martial Master

Want to kill him?

Little did they know, he had already made ample preparations!

As Qu Zhanyun finished speaking, Fu Yuankui was first taken aback, then quickly followed, holding his large hammer. Only now did he understand why Qu Zhanyun insisted on bringing him along for the mission. It turned out he was worried about enemies coming after him.

This young man is also inexperienced, Fu Yuankui thought, referring to Jiang Shu. Each of their great clan's top retainers fought their way out of county cities. No matter how short a time Qu Zhanyun has been with the Yao Family, his combat prowess is no weaker than many top retainers. Even I couldn't confidently claim to defeat him completely. Now a completely unknown young man has arrived. Thinking of an assassination? Who does he think he is? A Refining Internal Realm expert?

Fu Yuankui snorted coldly, but his steps were not fast. I'll definitely make a move. But since the young man came alone and Qu Zhanyun specifically brought me, it means this youth's strength is definitely not weak. He must be on par with Qu Zhanyun in combat power. I can also take this chance to observe. I'll step in when Qu Zhanyun is losing. The reward I'll get then will be truly substantial. He had his own calculations.

Fu Yuankui leisurely caught up.

And at this moment, faced with Qu Zhanyun's blade, Jiang Shu did not retreat but advanced!

Qu Zhanyun has grown stronger! I saw it this time when the blade was unleashed. But I am stronger!

Fierce Tiger Jumping! The Perfect Level Fierce Tiger Jumping was incomparably ferocious. Paired with his extremely sharp alloy battle saber, Jiang Shu leaped up. The Famished Tiger Roar Mountain Strength within him, which had been brewing countless times, suddenly erupted. The qi and blood in his body were drawn upon in an instant, transformed into boundless power.

One slash, swift as thunder!

"Die!" Jiang Shu roared.

The wind howled, and the saber light was heart-stopping! This slash aimed directly at Qu Zhanyun's skull!

Qu Zhanyun never expected Jiang Shu's slash to be so ferocious. He had seen this slash in the tavern before, but it never possessed such might. This slash, how can I block it?

The long saber in his hand, upon collision with the alloy battle saber, sent sparks flying! A notch appeared conspicuously.

Famished Tiger Roar Mountain Strength. Dark Force. Both erupted simultaneously!

Qu Zhanyun felt as if his entire arm had been struck by lightning! He wanted to raise his long saber once more, but the numbness made him unconsciously half a beat too slow.

By this time, Jiang Shu's saber had become even quicker! Descending once again!

White Tiger Carrying Corpses!

Qu Zhanyun retreated repeatedly, roaring, "Brother Fu, save me!"

Little did he know, at this moment, Fu Yuankui suddenly stopped in his tracks. He couldn't clearly discern the youth's first slash. But the second slash, he saw it with utter clarity.

The might of this slash is definitely not from Low Grade Martial Arts! This young man very likely comes from some major family! Not someone to be trifled with. I need to run!

He turned around and fled. This youth's saber is too fast and too fierce. If Qu Zhanyun, who is on par with my strength, can't withstand two slashes, how can I believe that by joining forces, we could take down the youth? I don't believe it! If the youth has any hidden trump cards, we'll both die! I was able to become a top retainer. Firstly, by killing! Secondly, by having good judgment and knowing when to run!

The large hammer in his hand, at this instant, he slung onto his back. His footwork was extremely fast as he immediately dashed into the dense forest.

At this moment, Qu Zhanyun's head flew into the air! His face was contorted in a ferocious expression, his eyes refusing to close in death! He could never have imagined that Brother Fu, whom he had gone to great lengths to invite and who always called him "Brother Fu," would turn and flee without even attempting a single strike!

And Jiang Shu, without any delay, using Toad Leap and Minor Leap Skill, instantly leaped onto the treetops. Toad Leap. Minor Leap Skill. With binoculars in hand, he kept scanning. Very soon, he spotted Fu Yuankui still rushing through the forest.

Indeed, Martial Artists are the epitome of self-interest! If the two had joined forces, it would not have been so easy for me to kill Qu Zhanyun. Even if Qu Zhanyun had faced me alone, he probably could have lasted three or four moves. But Fu Yuankui's retreat instantly shattered Qu Zhanyun's spirit! With him losing focus, a simple slash from me was enough to take him out! It even saved me a lot of energy. Perfect for what comes next!

Fierce Tiger Jumping!

Since I've made a move, I must eradicate the threat completely! Jiang Shu would never leave any potential loose ends.

It's just a pity Qu Zhanyun's four underlings didn't follow. Otherwise, I'd have killed them all. That would truly be safe! No matter, it's not a big problem. I also know the whereabouts of those four. When I get back, I'll make sure all five brothers are reunited! This brotherhood won't be in vain!

Jiang Shu gripped his battle saber. He leaped down.

The wind howled.

Fu Yuankui turned back in horror. He never expected this youth to arrive so swiftly! I thought I had hidden deep in the jungle to avoid detection. How could he possibly know my location?

No time to think further! Fu Yuankui immediately drew the large hammer from his back, roaring furiously! It's come to this; there's no choice but to fight!

The large hammer swung fiercely. But turning around hastily, how could he compare to Jiang Shu's offense, which was like a raging fire!

Fierce Tiger Jumping!

Black Tiger Heart-picking!

Saber Technique, Thirteen Moves!

White Tiger Carrying Corpses!

Minor Dipper Step!

Minor Leap Skill!

Jiang Shu unleashed one Martial Art after another. To this point, I've come to understand that weapons are merely an extension of fists and legs.

A slash executed with the Overthrowing Small Steles technique was tremendously powerful. Directly, it severed the arm with which Fu Yuankui gripped his large hammer!

The hammer, along with the severed arm, crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust! Fu Yuankui's eyes filled with horror and regret.

Only in true combat did I realize how terrifying this youth is. This is no ordinary Peak Bone Forging Realm Martial Artist! This saber technique is clearly Middle Grade Martial Arts! This power, even if not from a Middle Grade Cultivation Technique, is definitely one of the best among Low Grade ones! And this battle saber is even more terrifying! A normal battle saber, under the brutal assault of my hammer, would have been forced back! But this saber didn't retreat at all. Instead, it clashed head-on with my large hammer, leaving several saber marks on it! This kind of battle saber... how could it be wielded by a Bone Forging Realm Martial Artist! Such a youth... Qu Zhanyun, how could he have dared to provoke him!

Fu Yuankui's thoughts whirled, but his head had already fallen to the ground. His body, no longer able to support itself, slumped next to the large hammer.

Jiang Shu let out a long breath. He had used up seventy to eighty percent of his qi and blood! This battle seemed easy, but in reality, every move was a killing blow!

There was no time to linger. He swallowed a Blood Strengthening Pill, quickly restoring his qi and blood. He wiped his alloy battle saber in the brush a few times; after the blood was cleared, he sheathed it directly.

He searched Fu Yuankui's body: no Martial Arts manuals, no silver notes—just a pauper.

He hurried back and found a small recovery pill and some silver notes on Qu Zhanyun's corpse.

In the sky, several crow-like Mutant Beasts circled and cawed, clearly drawn by the scent of the corpses.

Jiang Shu did not bother to collect the weapons. Although weapons could be sold for a higher price, the weapons of a top retainer were too conspicuous.

I already have two major money-making ventures, Moissanite and perfume. I don't need this petty cash. Safety is the priority. He retreated swiftly.

In the sky, the crow-like Mutant Beasts swooped down, pecking greedily.

Two Martial Artists at the Peak of the Bone Forging Realm. In just a quarter of an hour, both had perished!

Qu Zhanyun had wanted to scheme against him, thinking two Peak Bone Forging Realm Martial Artists could easily subdue him. But he didn't realize that in this world, all schemes were illusory. Only strength was real and true!
