Chapter 109 Three Lifetimes:

"Is this a powerful martial arts technique?"

Lu Yuan held several booklets stained with blood in his hand, which he had just found on the bodies of Liu Shun and the others.

The contents of these booklets are largely the same, recording several common, low-grade martial arts techniques.

Judging from this, it should be issued by the Great Ling Dynasty, and every constable should have one.

"Six Harmonies Saber Technique, Rock-Solid Skill, Cloud-Slapping Palm?"

Lu Yuan shook his head.

These trashy martial arts techniques might be good for scaring ordinary people, but they're a joke in front of real martial arts masters.

However, the only difference is that...

A new movement technique has been added to Liu Shun's booklet.

Lu Yuan stared intently at it.

[Martial Arts Skill: Snake Shadow Step - Part 1]

[Rank: Not Ranked]

[Introduction: Demons wreak havoc in the world, poisoning all living beings. The Great Spirit National Preceptor once collected martial arts techniques from across the land, attempting to spread his teachings throughout the world and empower all to resist demons. This movement technique is a standard martial art of the Great Spirit Dynasty.]

This movement technique has three parts: upper, middle, and lower. Each part corresponds to one of the three realms: minor mastery, major mastery, and perfection.

[If one cultivates this skill to perfection, one can become a top-tier expert in the Qi Condensation Realm!]

[Hint: Spend fifty Sky-Mending Points to complete the Snake Shadow Step - Middle Chapter.]

"To conquer the world with military might?"

Lu Yuan smiled.

The Grand Master of the Great Spirit Kingdom had good intentions, but unfortunately he underestimated the evil in human nature.

People like Liu Shun, wielding these martial arts techniques, not only failed to defend themselves against the demons, but instead turned their swords against innocent civilians, becoming accomplices of the demons.

"But this Snake Shadow Step can be upgraded directly? Could it be because I obtained the original martial arts technique?"

Lu Yuan seemed to understand something.

When he was learning the Thunderclap Blade Technique, he had to master all the moves before he could use the Heaven-Mending Points to improve it.

After putting away all the spoils, Lu Yuan turned around and closed the door of Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

As for the bodies of Liu Shun and the others, someone will naturally come to collect them.

Back in the room, I closed the doors and windows.

Lu Yuan used his talent.

Although this movement technique is far inferior to the Wind and Thunder Blade Technique, it's still fine for use as a transitional technique in the early stages.

A flash of white light flashed.

The booklet in Lu Yuan's hand suddenly contained many new moves.

[Martial Arts Technique: Snake Shadow Step - Part 2]

[Rank: Unranked]

[Hint: Spend 300 Sky-Mending Points to complete the second part of the Serpent Shadow Step!]

See the prompt.

Lu Yuan chose to continue upgrading.

However, after completing the three parts (upper, middle, and lower), a new prompt appeared again.

[Spend 500 Heaven-Mending Points to upgrade it to the Profound-Rank Martial Skill - Nine Transformations of the Serpent!]

[Introduction: This movement technique is agile and unpredictable, and also has a body-tempering effect, making the martial artist's body as resilient and flexible as a snake. If mastered, it allows for free movement on the battlefield!]

[Note: This movement technique requires a matching mental cultivation method. It takes 1000 Heaven-Mending Points to complete the Serpent Divine Intent!]

Lu Yuan saw this.

He immediately spent 1,500 points to complete the moves and divine intent.

The thin booklet in his hand had turned into a thick book, thicker than a brick.

Lu Yuan put it aside for the time being and instead focused his attention on the other jade bottles.

Ma Liu suffered the wrath of demons and had several ribs broken, so he naturally carried many healing pills with him.

[Item: Hemostatic Powder]

[Rank: Not Ranked]

[Description: This external wound medicine is made from a decoction of more than ten kinds of precious herbs. When applied to the wound, it can quickly stop bleeding.]

[Note: Spending ten Heaven-Mending Points can upgrade it to a Hemostatic Pill.]

Blood Qi Pill, Essence Qi Pill, Black Ant Bone-Regenerating Ointment...

Although Ma Liu had quite a few pills, they were scattered and all of them were of low quality.

The other constables were even poorer than the rest.

The dozen or so people together had a total of about fifty taels of silver and three gold ingots. After tallying all the spoils...

Lu Yuan went into seclusion again, focusing all his attention on the movement technique, "Nine Transformations of the Serpent".

……

the other side.

As the news spread.

The news of Lu Yuan killing a county constable in the street spread like wildfire throughout Qingyun County!
How could a two-year-old child kill more than a dozen county government experts?
This news was so unbelievable that many people simply didn't believe it.

Moreover, Liu Shun, as a martial artist at the sixth level of the Qi Condensation Realm, is one of the top experts in Qingyun County.

He had a close relationship with the demons of Black Wind Ridge and usually acted arrogantly in the county town. No one dared to provoke him, and even the county magistrate had to give him some face.

How could someone with such influence and connections possibly be defeated by a mere child?

However, many ordinary people passed by the security escort agency at the time and witnessed this scene.

"Don't you believe me? I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be false?"

"That young master of Zhenyuan Escort Agency is a demon lord descended from heaven. Although he is young, dealing with Liu Shun and his group is as easy as killing chickens!"

"One cut, one head; the ground was stained red with blood!"

"Really? Even if he started cultivating in the womb, he couldn't possibly possess such terrifying strength, could he?"

"What do you know? Young Master Lu Yuan is a born killer, how can you judge him by ordinary standards?"

"Well done! Liu Shun and his gang committed countless evil deeds and colluded with demons; they deserved to die long ago!"

Many ordinary people applauded and spread the news.

They had suffered greatly from the humiliation and exploitation of Liu Shun and his gang, and now, upon hearing the news of their deaths, they were as happy as if it were New Year's Day.

However, when Wu Yong, the magistrate of Qingyun County, heard this news, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth and his face turned ashen.

Officials are like fathers, and the people are like children.

Even if Liu Shun and the others did something wrong, they should be punished by the imperial court's laws and should not be killed at will by a lowly commoner!
"Reverse! Reverse!"

"What exactly is the Zhenyuan Escort Agency trying to do? How dare they kill a government official in the street?"

In addition to his anger, Wu Yong felt an unprecedented sense of terror.

Lu Yuan was audacious and reckless, showing contempt for the laws and regulations of the imperial court.

If he dares to kill Liu Shun today, he might dare to kill me someday!

After all, Wu Yong, as the magistrate of Qingyun County, was usually very busy with his duties and had fallen behind in his martial arts studies.

He has only just reached the eighth level of the Qi Condensation Realm. Although he is slightly stronger than Liu Shun, his actual combat strength is just so-so, and he is definitely no match for Lu Yuan.

Thinking about this.

A flicker of panic crossed Wu Yong's eyes, and he felt increasingly that his life was in danger.

The last time he was so terrified was when the tiger demon from Black Wind Ridge broke into the county government office at night, almost scaring him to death on the spot.

In the end, Wu Yong paid a considerable price and gained significant benefits before the other party left satisfied.

Demons may be terrifying, but at least they can be swayed by profit.

As long as their appetites are satisfied, one's own safety is still somewhat guaranteed.

This can be seen from Lu Yuan's style of doing things.

This guy is bloodthirsty and doesn't play by the rules at all; he's even more difficult to get along with than a demon!
Wu Yong had considered reconciling with Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

In fact, Lu Yuan killing Liu Shun and others was just a minor matter.

After all, these people didn't hold official positions or ranks; at most, they were just minor officials. So, if they died, so be it.

Normally, the worst that could happen is a three-drink penalty shot, and that's it for the last time.

However, the fact that Old Master Lu had repeatedly slaughtered demons had already aroused serious dissatisfaction among many demons.

If Wu Yong dares to let Lu Yuan go, that tiger demon in Black Wind Ridge will never let him off the hook!
"Should we report this to the imperial court immediately?" Wu Yong hesitated for a moment, then dismissed the idea.

The Great Ling Dynasty is now in a mess, and by the time the imperial reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid I'll have already passed my seventh day after death.

As for seeking help from the Demon Suppression Division?

Wu Yong had never even considered this possibility.

The Demon Suppression Division holds a transcendent position, independent of the imperial court, and obeys only the orders of the Great Spirit Royal Family. It possesses the power of killing without prior authorization.

Besides slaying demons, they also deeply resent traitors who collude with demons and betray humanity.

Once the experts from the Demon Suppression Division arrive...

Given the numerous crimes Wu Yong has committed over the years, he will definitely be the first to be brought to justice!

"At this point, it seems there is only one last option left."

Wu Yong took a deep breath, looked in the direction of Black Wind Ridge, and made a decision in his heart.
