In this chaotic world of martial arts, I'll become a god by adding skill points!

"There are still two legs left. Young master, you've come so late today." The butcher was packing up his tools. It was getting late, and he was preparing to close up shop when Wang Anping came over.

"Something came up and I was delayed. How about you send me two hind legs every two days from now on?"

"You can also send about ten pounds of ribs, so I don't have to come over every day." Wang Anping skillfully took out some silver from his waist, ready to pay the bill.

It's really inconvenient to come here to buy things often, and sometimes it can even cause delays.

"Sure! Starting the day after tomorrow, I'll have my son deliver it to you as soon as I finish slaughtering the cow."

The butcher took two hind legs out of the house, a smile on his face.

Wang Anping is a regular customer; he has bought countless amounts of beef from this restaurant.

He had no reason to refuse such a stable, regular customer who always ordered large quantities.

"Then I'll have to trouble you from now on." Wang Anping took the beef, handed half to Zhang Cheng, and after paying the money, the two walked back to the house.

I hadn't walked more than a few steps when I saw a woman frantically carrying a baby, her face filled with fear, running while constantly looking back.

The woman's eyes lit up when she saw Wang Anping and his companion, and she ran towards them.

"Why are you running away! If you can't pay, we'll take your daughter as collateral!"

Three thugs emerged from the alley, carrying knives and grinning menacingly, blood dripping from the tips of their blades.

"Please, gentlemen, save my child!" The woman looked at the two strong men and felt as if she had grasped at a straw.

"There's no way to avoid it now. You go and practice your skills, I'll back you up."

There were no other pedestrians on the road at that moment. The woman ran towards the two of them, calling for help.

The three thugs, carrying knives, didn't take the two men seriously at all. Instead, their eyes lit up when they saw the beef the two men were holding.

Seeing this, Wang Anping put down the beef in his hand and said to Zhang Cheng beside him, "In my opinion, these three are not even beginners, just ordinary gangsters. They are perfect for Zhang Cheng to practice on."

"Me?" Zhang Cheng was a little confused, pointing a finger at himself.

"In the path of martial arts, simply burying yourself in hard training is useless! I'm here watching, what are you afraid of? Go and do it!" Wang Anping patted his shoulder and pushed him out.

Upon hearing Wang Anping's words, Zhang Cheng considered the other party's incredibly terrifying strength and immediately felt more confident.

"Where did you come from? Hand over the beef, or your grandpa won't kill you two."

The man at the head of the group, carrying a knife, glanced at Zhang Cheng, who had rushed forward, and saw that he was strong and powerful.

Looking again at Wang Anping, who was standing a little further back, the same was true.

He sensed that the two guys weren't easy to deal with, so he didn't rush in with knives, but he still spoke to Zhang Cheng in a disdainful tone.

Looking at the gleaming knife in the other person's hand, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but feel afraid. But remembering that Wang Anping was right behind him, he mustered his courage and looked at the three of them.

"Hand over the beef? You three take off your pants, crawl between my legs, and then each of you kowtow to me, and I'll spare you."

Upon hearing this, Wang Anping, who was standing behind, almost burst out laughing. He hadn't expected his cousin to be so eloquent.

The three thugs blushed when they heard this. How dare a mere teenager spout such nonsense!

"You son of a bitch, you won't listen to reason, so let's get you! Brothers, let's go!"

"Dry him to death!"

"Die, you son of a bitch!"

The three men raised their knives and slashed at Zhang Cheng.

Although his strength was only at the entry level, Wang Anping had taught him a lot during this time, and he could even take Qi and Blood Powder at will.

However, due to a lack of combat experience, he barely managed to defend against the attacks of the three opponents in a flurry of activity.

Wang Anping shook his head as he watched this scene; their reaction speed was far inferior to his own.

"Thank...thank you..." The woman knelt on the ground, holding the baby in her arms, and kowtowed to Wang Anping.

"It's nothing, just a small favor." He pulled the woman up from the ground and then looked at the battlefield.

Zhang Cheng used the Five Animal Fist and fought the three men back and forth, but due to his lack of combat experience, he was temporarily locked in a stalemate.

"You've got some martial arts skills! Where do you think you're from, kid?"

The leader noticed that Zhang Cheng had martial arts training and asked about his background.

"Go to hell!"

Zhang Cheng was in high spirits. He never expected that fighting with someone could be so exhilarating. He was so engrossed in the fight that he had no time to waste on idle chatter with his opponent.

After a while, neither side could gain the upper hand, so Wang Anping walked over.

Internal energy is unleashed! Blood and qi surge!

The snowflakes were evaporated by his vital energy as they fell around him.

The woman in the distance stared wide-eyed at the sight; Zhang Cheng's ability to take on three opponents single-handedly had greatly shocked her.

At this moment, Wang Anping was like a god in her eyes.

"Holy crap!"

The three gangsters who were fighting Zhang Cheng stopped fighting when they saw this scene, their mouths agape.

The leader, who had some knowledge, couldn't help but utter a swear word.

Bang!

He knelt on the ground, his face showing fear and apprehension, and the other two behind him also knelt down.

"Did you kill someone?" Wang Anping asked calmly, his face expressionless as he looked at the three of them.

"Kill...kill them...their family can't afford the peace money, and they're unwilling to hand over their child."

"We are from the Shahe Gang, please spare our lives, sir..."

Faced with Wang Anping's imposing presence, he dared not lie. His lips trembled as he spoke the truth, and then he began to beg for mercy.

*Slap!* While the other man was still on the ground, head bowed and begging for mercy, Wang Anping slapped him on the head.

No blood flowed, but the hidden force destroyed the opponent's internal organs, and the leader fell straight down in the snow.

The other two exchanged a glance, then turned to run away. But how fast could two ordinary people run?

An inner force was unleashed! The fist was extended, and the snow it touched instantly melted into water droplets.

Xingyi, Drill Fist!

Thud! ~Thud!

The two bodies lay motionless on the ground.

Zhang Cheng stood to one side, his eyes wide open.

He never imagined that his cousin, who usually seemed to only know how to practice martial arts and rarely spoke to others, would kill without the slightest hesitation!

"What are you daydreaming about? Search these three people for money and then hand it over to the mother and daughter." Wang Anping patted Zhang Cheng on the shoulder. If the other man hadn't been so slow, he wouldn't have been prepared to take action.

With such heavy snow, and looking at those two cow legs, I've been practicing martial arts all day and I'm hungry.

"Huh? Okay, okay." Zhang Cheng was shocked at first, then confused, and finally accepted his words.

He didn't understand why someone would touch a corpse after killing another person. Didn't a hero kill someone and then leave?

Despite his doubts, he did as instructed.

"Go home and live a good life," Wang Anping said casually to the woman as he picked up the beef from the ground.

"Thank you... thank you, sir, thank you for saving my life~" The woman sobbed softly, holding the baby in her arms.

"Anping, we've managed to scrape together a few hundred copper coins and some loose silver, which should amount to three or four taels." Zhang Cheng walked over, holding the silver coins, a happy expression on his face.

He now understood why Wang Anping had asked him to search for corpses, and he wanted to do the same in the future!

"Give it all to her, let's go."

"Huh? Oh, okay."

"Thank...thank you...for saving my life." The woman looked at the money in her hand, tears streaming down her face.

"No need to thank me, no need to repay me. It's cold, go home quickly."

Wang Anping turned and left, walking towards the courtyard.

Upon entering the house, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Anping, that woman's family must have all been killed..."

I know what you want to say, but you don't have to.

Such is the state of the world, and such is the state of everyone; we cannot save them all, nor can we help them all.

If you encounter this situation, lend a hand if you can, but don't try to be a hero if you can't.

You have parents behind you, and I have a whole family behind me too. You must never throw your life away carelessly, understand?

Wang Anping knew what Zhang Cheng meant: to take the other party in?

Impossible. There are so many homeless people in the world, and so many refugees outside the city that we can't possibly manage them all.

Compared to that, he was more concerned about another issue. He had just heard a few days ago that the Shahe Gang was searching for babies everywhere, and he never expected to encounter one today.

He had always suspected what the county magistrate's true purpose was in the last sacrificial ceremony. Was he searching the entire county for babies to sacrifice to evil spirits?

Then, considering that his master, Chen Chaoming, might be colluding with the other party and secretly plotting something...

A storm is brewing!
