I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

"Huh? Can't go too far? Didn't you say you wanted to try inviting him into White Crow? Getting into White Crow definitely requires this, otherwise all my previous suffering would have been for nothing?"

"..."

"Big backing? How big can it be? Hey, alright, I'll try to hold back."

"However, he may become our comrade in the future. You know how dangerous the border area is. Comrades should know each other well... I will try my best to test his limits, and I will have to use some force."

The sound of a car driving over a gravel road came from not far away, and the man turned his head to look.

"That's all, they've arrived."

The man pressed behind his ear, then stood up and stretched.

A black sedan slowly drove onto the grass and stopped.

Pei Tiancheng and Pei Youguang got out of the driver's seat and the passenger seat respectively.

The back door of the car opened, and an overly handsome young man stepped out.

"Oh? He does look quite presentable."

The man muttered to himself.

He walked toward the boy, opening his arms as if to embrace him. His arms were extremely long, resembling those of an ape, reaching past his knees.

The man grinned and said:

"Xue Jing, it's a pleasure to meet you. You can call me 'Mountain Demon'."

"Then let's not delay, let's become friends right away."

"The best way to make friends—"

"Let's have a fight!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the grass suddenly exploded open, and the man's figure had already disappeared from the spot.

Xue Jing looked at the mountain demon that suddenly appeared in front of him and threw a punch at him, but his expression did not change at all.

Just as Pei Tiancheng said, they acted swiftly and decisively.

"That's fine."

"I don't dislike this direct way of communicating."

This punch was incredibly powerful, producing a whistling sound as it rubbed against the air; it seemed capable of piercing through even a steel plate placed in front of it.

However, Xue Jing neither dodged nor avoided the punch, standing still and taking it squarely to the chest.

"puff--"

To the mandrill's somewhat surprised gaze, the fist struck his chest with a dull thud, like hitting a tire.

Xue Jing's bones trembled, emitting a rumbling, thunderous sound. The powerful kinetic energy carried by that punch was absorbed and transformed by his bones...

The breathing technique is activated, and the energy surges within the body, transforming into a true dragon that roams everywhere, capturing the kinetic energy within the bones and converting it for its own use.

The sound of a dragon's roar resounded.

Concentrating all his power into his right fist, Xue Jing spun around and unleashed a powerful backhand punch with incredible speed, like a dragon whipping its tail, sweeping away the clouds.

Killer move—Sealing Cloud Tail!

"boom!!"

The air was torn apart, and the grass within several meters in front was bent into a fan shape by the airflow.

Before Pei Tiancheng and Pei Youguang's stunned eyes, a loud bang rang out, and the mandrill was sent flying more than twenty meters away, its body plunging straight into the grassy slope like a javelin.

Chapter 76 You Cannot Represent the Times, But I Will Eventually Reverse the Times (4K, Requesting Monthly Tickets)

Is this a high school student?

"Youguang, are you sure your senior only started practicing martial arts a little over a month ago?"

Pei Tiancheng's eyelids twitched, and he couldn't help but ask his younger brother again.

"Is...is that so? I guess so?" Pei Youguang said hesitantly, he was also a little unsure.

Could it be that Jing-ge was playing dumb with him a month ago, pretending to be weak while actually being a martial arts expert from a young age?

But he did teach Jing-ge the basic breathing technique.

Judging from the looks of it, this was indeed their first time practicing breathing techniques...

What kind of monster is this? He trained to this level in just over a month...

Pei Tiancheng patted Pei Youguang on the shoulder with a solemn expression.

"No matter what, you must not sever your relationship with this person."

"Even if it's just a regular friendship, it might be very useful in the future."

“I haven’t seen many people like this in the inner city… As long as he doesn’t die young, even if he doesn’t take banned drugs or use a foreign body, and continues to follow the path of traditional martial arts, he will at least become a Dragon Gate Grandmaster in the future, and may even be able to touch the ‘title’.”

Pei Tiancheng looked thoughtful.

If this Master Xue really does grow to the point of touching a title, even if it's just the least prestigious 'tenth dan', that would be incredible...

The one who took over Cangting decades ago valued the old martial arts masters highly, and all the old martial arts masters who received titles would be treated with respect by that master.

Pei Tiancheng's eyes gleamed.

Perhaps the Pei family could use this connection to indirectly make some contact with the Cangting, which represents the highest power in the Xia Dynasty!

Even the slightest connection brings immense wealth!

Pei Tiancheng said to Pei Youguang earnestly:

"The future of our Pei family rests on your shoulders."

Pei Youguang: ""

He was completely bewildered, feeling like a bewildered bum.

Me? .jpg

He's just a good-for-nothing second-generation heir whom even his own father looks down on. What future? What burden? What god or demon is Li Zaisuo?

However, before he could say anything, a new change occurred in the scene.

The mountain demon, swept away by Xue Jing's Cloud-Sealing Tail and embedded in the grassy slope, began to move.

The body, which was hanging in mid-air with its head stuck in the ground, struggled for a moment, braced itself against the slope with both hands, and pulled its head out with a forceful effort.

"This punch..."

"That felt so good!!!"

The mandrill stood up, spread its arms, and howled at the sky with such a loud voice that a wild rabbit in the distance was so frightened that it ran away in a panic.

He turned to look at Xue Jing, his eyes revealing extreme excitement, as if a lecher had discovered a beauty who perfectly suited his taste.

"What are you waiting for? Keep going!" The mandrill reached out and pounded its chest, the sound of its body hitting its muscles making a thud.

"If I spend so much money installing this thing and don't get beaten up a bit, then I've wasted my money, right?"

"Come on, hit me!"

Xue Jing glanced at the other man's left shoulder, the spot where his Feng Yunwei had struck him.

He didn't want to kill anyone, so he didn't aim for the head.

On his slightly dark right shoulder, there was a purplish mark, which must have been from when he hit him.

Feng Yunwei, capable of blasting the head off a cockroach monster, had surprisingly little effect when used on a human body.

Although he didn't use the power of twins to amplify his strength, this person's body is just too tough.

Xue Jing felt a sense of familiarity.

Previously, when he was carrying out the mission of containing the "Crown of the Wicked Woman", he encountered a man named Zhu Yingkun. The man's skin membrane was exceptionally tough, and punches could hardly cause any damage to him.

It feels a lot like how I feel now.

Xue Jing raised an eyebrow and asked:

"Xenograft?"

The mandrill said in surprise, "Oh? I didn't expect someone from the outer ring to have such knowledge... That's right, it is indeed a heterologous plant."

"My skin is fitted with a 'B1 protective membrane,' which is an entry-level military-grade xenograft with extremely strong shock absorption capabilities, especially effective in protecting against the 'force' of you martial artists."

The mandrill grinned.

"So, are you tempted? Want to get one too?"

Xue Jing shook his head and said in a completely calm tone:

"How could mere technological products possibly compare to a body forged through countless trials?"

The mandrill clicked its tongue.

"So why are you martial artists so unwilling to face reality?"

"The old era has been over for more than two hundred years."

"—Wake up, times have changed!"
