Sweeping Through Martial Arts: My Clone's Extraordinary Talent

"Brother, what brings you here?"

Shen Han stared at the bald man, put down the lantern, and spoke slowly.

The bald man chuckled, "Mr. Ugly, I'm sorry, but I'm very interested in your Guiyun Pill."

"Didn't you say you didn't bring enough money?"

Shen Han said calmly, "I'm sorry, it's impossible for me to lower the price."

The bald man approached step by step.

Whoosh!

He drew a longsword from his waist and chuckled, "Simple. As long as I kill you, the Guiyun Pill will be mine."

"Oh……"

Shen Han remained noncommittal.

Judging from the bald man's action of drawing his sword, this person was at most at the peak of the Skin Refining stage, two realms below him, and not worth fearing at all.

"Mr. Ugly, I advise you to obediently hand over the Guiyun Pill to avoid suffering more physical pain."

Having said that, the longsword was already pointed at Shen Han.

Shen Han casually sneered, "The martial world is full of petty villains..."

"Go to hell!"

Provoked by Shen Han's words, the bald man was instantly enraged and charged forward with his sword.

However, in Shen Han's eyes, his movements were slower than a snail.

The sensory responses brought about by the Tendon Refining Realm far surpass those of the Skin Refining Realm. In the world of martial arts, such a huge gap between realms is insurmountable.

"you!"

The bald man froze the next moment.

Because the long sword that was aimed at Shen Han was easily caught by Shen Han with just two fingers.

The bald man was shocked.

He tried to push it forward, but it wouldn't go any further; he tried to pull it back, but it wouldn't budge.

Ouch!

Shen Han then applied a slight force with his fingers.

The longsword broke in two.

"How...how could this happen..."

The bald man was terrified; his hands went numb, and he instantly realized that he had met his match.

This ugly man selling Guiyun Dan is no pushover!

escape!

In the blink of an eye, the bald man made a snap decision, threw away the broken half of his longsword, gathered his strength, and turned to run.

In the blink of an eye, he had run more than ten zhang (approximately 33 meters) away.

The bald man gasped for breath and hurriedly looked back: "Thank goodness, that person didn't catch up..."

He patted his trembling chest.

But when he looked up, he was immediately terrified, for the ugly man was standing right in front of him!

"You, you..."

The bald man was stunned. He had clearly shaken off the ugly man, so why...?

"Brother, the deal isn't over yet, why are you in such a hurry?"

Shen Han gave a half-smile, "You don't want the Returning Cloud Pill anymore?"

The bald man was covered in cold sweat, both shocked and frightened: "I was blind and did not recognize your greatness. I have offended Your Majesty's majesty."

Shen Han smiled and said, "Sure, just hand over the money."

The bald man was bitter; his attempt to steal a chicken tonight had backfired, and he had gotten himself into big trouble. He deeply regretted his actions.

"I only have... fifteen taels of silver."

The bald man dared not act rashly and immediately took out all his silver.

Shen Han accepted the silver: "You think you can buy my Guiyun Pill with such a small amount of money?"

"I wouldn't dare, I know I was wrong..."

"Alright, fifteen taels it is. Consider it compensation for disturbing me late at night."

"Of course, of course..."

The bald man bowed and scraped. He had no choice but to lower his head when he was under someone else's roof. He had successfully robbed and killed several people before and had never encountered any resistance. This was the first time he had met a master like Shen Han.

boom!

Shen Han had no intention of letting the bald man off the hook. He clenched his fist and struck the bald man squarely in the chest. He used less than 30% of his strength in that punch.

Caught off guard, the bald man took a solid hit and was knocked to the ground.

Click!

All the bones in his body were shattered.

His eyes widened in terror: "You...you've already got the money...why did you still have to kill me...?"

Before he could finish speaking, his head slumped down, and he died.

Shen Han had no pity for such a robber who killed and stole. He yawned and muttered, "Making you hand over the money was just to save me time looting the corpse, nothing more."

Having said that, he picked up the lantern and prepared to leave.

clap clap clap!

Just then, a figure emerged from the woods, clapping.

The man had disheveled hair and a gaunt face.

White Guard!

Shen Han instantly recognized the uninvited guest.

Bai Wei, the deputy leader of the Moon Worship Cult!

Last time, when Bai Wei treated the injuries of Cao Ziping, the leader of the Green Robe Gang, he sneaked into the room and inquired about Cao's injuries. He also said that he hoped the Green Robe Gang and the Black Dragon Gang would fight to the death.

However, back then he was a doctor in a medical clinic, but now he was wearing a human skin mask and had become the Ugly Man.

"Who are you?"

Shen Han said deliberately, without showing any emotion.

He knew perfectly well that Bai Wei's inexplicable appearance here was definitely not a good thing. Moreover, as the deputy incense master, Bai Wei's cultivation level was far beyond that of the bald man.

"I am Bai Wei, the deputy leader of the Moon Worship Cult."

"So it was Deputy Incense Master Bai."

Shen Han pointed at the bald man, "As you saw, Deputy Chief Bai, this man had malicious intentions and tried to rob me. I had no choice but to take action to protect myself."

Bai Wei laughed heartily: "Of course, that guy deserves to die!"

I've seen plenty of robbers, but I've never seen one as stupid as him before.

He's never even heard of you, Mr. Ugly Face.

"What does Vice Master Bai mean by this?"

"Mr. Ugly Face, did you kill Du Chong, the young leader of the Black Dragon Gang, and Cao Lin, the young leader of the Green Robe Gang?"

Bai Wei kicked the bald man's corpse aside. "This scoundrel isn't even at the Flesh Refining Realm, yet he dared to rob a fiend like you. Isn't he courting death?"

Shen Han did not respond.

Bai Wei then said, "Mr. Ugly Face, I won't waste any more words. I want to buy your Guiyun Pill."

"So, Deputy Master Bai has been in the Ghost Market all along?"

"Indeed, I am not interested in anything in the Ghost Market tonight, except for your Guiyun Pill."

Shen Han took out a small porcelain bottle: "Two hundred taels. I wonder if Vice Incense Master Bai finds it too expensive?"

"This elixir is a forbidden item of the imperial court; two hundred taels per pill is very cheap!"

Bai Wei waved his hand repeatedly, and as he spoke, he took out a two-hundred-yuan silver note.

After the transaction was completed, Bai Wei carefully put the small porcelain bottle into his pocket: "Mr. Ugly Face, I'll ask you one more time, is this the only Guiyun Pill you're selling?"

Shen Han nodded calmly: "Yes, the acquisition channel for this pill is extremely secretive."

Bai Wei hurriedly replied, "I understand. How about this, Mr. Ugly Face: if you can obtain the Returning Cloud Pill before the next market opens, then sell it to me at the Ghost Market."

"OK!"

Shen Han didn't verbally object, but he was thinking to himself.

I sold one Guiyun Pill tonight, and now I have nearly three hundred taels of silver, enough to buy enough herbs for more than twenty days of Marrow Cleansing and Tendon Strengthening Water. If I can make money through other means in the future, I won't sell the Guiyun Pill anymore. After all, the Guiyun Pill is a rare treasure, and there's no harm in keeping it.

"Goodbye, Mr. Ugly Face."

Bai Wei said no more.

With a twist of his body, his figure vanished into the darkness like a ghost.

This person, like himself, was also at the Tendon Refining Realm... Shen Han watched Bai Wei leave.

The cultivation level of a mere deputy incense master in the Moon Worship Cult is so high. Above the deputy incense master are incense masters, and above the incense masters are perhaps altar masters, and above that are elders and cult leaders. What kind of organization is this mysterious Moon Worship Cult?
