Chaotic World of Martial Arts: I Have a Spirit Pearl of Desire

A moment later!

A moment later...

A moment later...

Three hundred desires were credited to the account.

After a while.

Xu Qiuxue also huddled shyly under the covers, not daring to look at Chen You.

Only one word came to her mind: "Amazing!!"

He's a young man after all.

…………

…………

Twelve days after Fang Zheng's death. Chen You did not go to the martial arts school.

Having just moved here, he needs to get to know the neighborhood.

Although the inner city appears to be very safe, petty theft and burglary still occur from time to time.

"Research for information about me in the vicinity."

[Information 1: The butcher next door, named Zhu Dachang, has had a troubled marriage for many years. His wife had an affair with a gang member. Three years ago, the butcher chopped the man into pieces and sold the meat as pork, and his business boomed. Residents all praised his pork as exceptionally fragrant and tender.]

After that, every month he would go outside the city to kill one or two people, chop the dead into pieces, and sell the flesh.

However, to avoid being discovered, he set two rules for himself!

First: Never kill anyone close to you.

Second: Do not kill good people, women, or children.

"Good heavens..."

Upon seeing this, Chen You was startled.

This is outrageous! They're selling human flesh!

Should we report it directly?

If I were to report it, I wouldn't have any evidence.

All that meat turned into minced meat.

There's no scientific verification in this world, so who would believe a report?

"Fortunately, this butcher has some principles; we can leave him alone for now!"

[Information 2: The Shi family, who sell tofu across the street, have been diligently selling tofu for twenty years. They have a son named Shi Wen, who is only sixteen years old but has a lewd and immoral nature!]

Every so often, he transforms into a midnight flower thief, defileing countless young girls and women.

[When Xu Yue and Xu Qiuxue moved in today, he secretly watched them from the doorway, drooling! He's decided to find an opportunity when you're not home, lure Xu Yue to his cellar, and have his way with her.]

Chen You's face darkened.

"He was a flower thief!"

This has already threatened Xu Qiuxue and Xu Yue.

Therefore, we must find an opportunity to get rid of him!

After all, he's going to Sanhewan in a few days!

No one's home, this is going to be difficult.

[Information 3: At number 22 on the street lives a woman named Shen Yun. This woman practices the Little Li Flying Dagger technique and roamed the martial arts world in her youth, earning the nickname "Little Li Flying Dagger."]

A year ago, she and her sister settled here! But her sister, Shen Qian, disappeared without a trace! There has been no news of her since!

In reality, her sister was kidnapped by Shi Wen, and her remains were buried deep in his family's cellar.

Shen Yun has been living here to search for her sister's whereabouts. If she finds her, she is willing to teach her the art of throwing knives.

…………

"There's actually this story from the past..."

After thinking it over, Chen You made up his mind.

This spell must be removed!!

As for Li Xunhuan's Flying Dagger Technique, I absolutely must obtain it!!

A moment later, Chen You, carrying a salted fish that Xu Qiuxue had pickled, knocked on the door of Shen Yun's house across the street.

The door creaked open.

The woman who came into view was beautiful and refined, but looked extremely haggard.

Her eyes were slightly sunken, and her face was somewhat pale, as if she hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time, but her delicate features still couldn't hide her beauty.

"Is there something you need?" Shen Yun asked coldly, looking at the unfamiliar man in front of her.

Chen You politely cupped his hands in greeting and pointed to his new house diagonally opposite: "I'm a new neighbor who moved in today. We're all neighbors, so I came here specifically to get acquainted with the place."

As he spoke, he handed over the salted fish with both hands: "This is a small gift from my wife, please accept it."

"No need." Shen Yun said coldly, making a move to close the door.

Chen You did not back down. Instead, she lowered her voice and said slowly, "I heard that your sister has gone missing, Miss?"

"Huh???" Shen Yun stopped abruptly in her tracks, her gaze sharpening as she stared intently at Chen You: "What did you say? How did you know about this?"

"I heard it from someone," Chen You said calmly. "Actually, I have many friends in the martial arts world who are well-informed. I've heard some rumors about your sister, which might be helpful to you."

Shen Yun's breathing quickened slightly, her eyes flashing with struggle and urgency. She hissed, "Speak!!"

"There are too many people here, let's talk in private." Chen You glanced at the empty street.

Shen Yun hesitated for a moment, then finally stepped aside: "Let's go inside and talk."

As Chen You stepped into the house, Shen Yun closed the door behind her, but remained highly vigilant, her gaze fixed on Chen You like a knife: "Don't try anything funny! Otherwise, I won't be polite!"

"I didn't mean to play any tricks, I'm just here to deliver a message."

Chen You shrugged, looking at her calmly, then slowly uttered, "Your sister is actually no longer alive. As for the murderer... it's Shi Wen, the son of the tofu seller next door!"

"impossible!"

Upon hearing the name, Shen Yun's expression changed, and she immediately retorted, "That child is only sixteen years old... He was only fifteen when my sister disappeared a year ago. How could he possibly do such a thing? Besides, how do you know?"

Her gaze was fixed intently on Chen You.

Especially in his right hand, three gleaming silver knives were already in his grasp.

If Chen You makes the slightest move, she will launch a throwing knife, killing him instantly.

"When I moved to this street, some friends warned me to be careful of that Shi Wen," Chen You casually made up an excuse, continuing, "I'm not telling you this to make you believe me, because without evidence, I'm sure you won't believe me!! I'm just telling you, two days!! Within two days, I'll try my best to get the evidence for you!"

"So, why did you help me?"

After hearing this much, Shen Yun was somewhat convinced.

She just didn't know why this person was looking for her.

"I want to learn your Little Li Flying Dagger technique! If I really find your sister's remains and avenge her, I hope you can teach me."

"Of course, that's no problem."

Shen Yun nodded. In fact, during her time here, she had made contact with many people in the martial arts world.

She promised that if she found out where her sister was, whether she was dead or alive, she would give her the secret manual of Little Li's Flying Dagger Technique.

"Okay, I'm leaving now. Wait for my message."

Chen You cupped his hands in greeting, turned, and left.

Just as Chen You left Shen Yun's house and was about to head towards her own residence, she saw a young man peeking furtively out of her courtyard gate.

His sister-in-law, Xu Yue, was standing inside the door, somewhat awkwardly talking to the young man.

"Hey girl, my family sells tofu next door. Our tofu is so white and tender, and it smells amazing. When are you coming over? I'll make it for you myself."

Although the young man looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, his smile was somewhat obsequious, and his eyes swept over Xu Yue's pretty face with ill intent.

Although Xu Yue was young and naive, she could still detect the frivolity in the other person's tone.

She took a step back warily: "No, thank you. My sister and brother-in-law said we can't just eat food from other people's homes; we shouldn't accept food without having done something right."

"Oh, we're neighbors now, no need to be so formal!" The young man waved his hand, then his eyes darted around as he lowered his voice and asked, "By the way, what time does your brother-in-law usually leave the house? How long does his journey typically take?"

"Why are you asking this?" Xu Yue immediately became alert, her small hands already gripping the door latch tightly.

"Haha, just kidding, just asking. Girl, you're really beautiful, the moment I saw you, my heart skipped a beat..."

*Smack!*

Without warning, a large, iron-like hand reached out from behind and gripped the young man's shoulder tightly.
