Skip this! Just tell me who to kill!

"Flowing Cloud Hand!"

Just like how every protagonist in a TV series shouts when they use a move, Qin Muyuan rushed up to the burly man in the wide robe, his throat vibrated, and a voice exploded from his mouth.

The burly man in the wide robe had by now recovered from his shock.

He still didn't understand how Qin Muyuan could withstand four arrows unscathed, but when he saw Qin Muyuan abandon the surrounding county soldiers and head straight for him, he still sneered:

"The Flowing Cloud Hand is such a trash martial art, and it's only at the second level. You think you can kill me? You're dreaming!"

After speaking, the burly man in the wide robe stepped forward with his right foot, his body sinking down, his breath becoming more restrained, and his hands forming a circle in front of him, as if embracing yin and yang.

Just as Qin Muyuan's flowing cloud-like hand was striking him with a powerful force, the burly man in the wide robe moved his arms like a Tai Chi master, meeting Qin Muyuan's fierce and direct attack head-on.

Bang!

The next second, a force far more powerful and explosive than expected slammed into the hands of the burly man in the wide robe.

The sneer on the burly man's face froze instantly. His hands, which had been embracing Yin and Yang, were violently shaken open. A loud "poof" sound came from his arms, and flesh and blood flew everywhere from his upper and lower arms, and bones shattered!

Under the explosive force of the Flowing Cloud Hand, the burly man in the wide robe was struck as if by lightning, and his arms were shattered in an instant!

Shattering his arms, the power of the Flowing Cloud Hand remained undiminished, traveling upwards along his arms and striking the internal organs of the burly man in the wide robe.

"Pfft!"

The burly man in the wide robe spat out a mouthful of blood, completely unprepared for the explosive power of the young man before him!

This isn't the second level of the Flowing Cloud Hand technique, it's the third level!

That old cunning bastard, he held back when he dealt with those county soldiers!

The burly man in the wide robe glared fiercely, his eyes blazing with fury.

"Insidious and cunning..."

"Stop babbling. Every grunt has a proper exit."

Qin Muyuan ignored what he was about to say and used his Flowing Cloud Hand again, striking the wide-robed man who was wide open, directly in the chest.

Bang!

The burly man in the wide robe took the full force of the blow; his heart was instantly shattered, and he fell backward in disbelief.

"Just some lowly grunts..."

thump.

The burly man in the wide robe collapsed stiffly to the ground. Qin Muyuan immediately turned his head and looked at the county soldiers beside him who were completely terrified.

"Scared to death? Being scared to death takes time too."

Qin Muyuan took a step and charged into the crowd!

[Mission Completed: Escort Xiao Chang out of Blackwater Prison and kill all Blackwater Prison guards and pursuers]

[Rewards: Experience +100, Shop Points +1000, Xiaoshan Kingdom Regional Reputation +50, Colorless Windwalker*1]

"So killing all the pursuers is also considered as being able to escape the government officials' pursuit."

Qin Muyuan nodded. It seemed that the settlement conditions for the mission were quite humane.

He turned his head and looked at Xiao Chang, who was already stunned.

After completing the previous task, Xiao Chang had a new exclamation mark above his head.

"Too, too strong!" Xiao Chang's eyes widened in disbelief when he saw Qin Muyuan, who was completely unharmed.

"Brother, how did you manage to do that? Weren't you just hit by four arrows? How come you're acting like nothing happened...?"

Qin Muyuan interrupted him directly: "Skip this, tell me the next task... wait, no, it should be... is there anything else you need help with?"

Qin Muyuan's interruption disrupted the coherent emotions Xiao Chang had just been building up.

However, after his experience in prison, Xiao Chang understood Qin Muyuan's character, and he quickly said:

"Yes, brother! Having witnessed your strength, I would like to hire you to escort me to Red Rock County in the Fire Cloud Kingdom. Upon my return home, I will surely repay you with a generous gift!"

[Mission: Escort Xiao Chang back to the Xiao family's territory in Hongyan County, Huoyun Kingdom]

[Task Rewards: Experience +200, Shop Points +1500, Fire Cloud Kingdom Regional Reputation +50, Colorless Killing Intent Perception *1]

After glancing at the mission rewards, Qin Muyuan nodded:

"Alright, let's go."

"Please wait a moment, brother, while I go and fetch some travel expenses."

As he spoke, Xiao Chang squatted down and began to touch the corpse.

There's even intelligent corpse-discovery?

Qin Muyuan was stunned. This game is really detailed. It even has a scene where NPCs loot corpses!

While Xiao Chang was looting the corpse to collect travel expenses, Qin Muyuan opened his personal panel.

Name: Qin Muyuan

[Level: 2]

[Talent: I love killing (Gold), a true master (Gold)]

After the upgrade, Qin Muyuan felt that his physical fitness had been greatly improved. In addition, the bonus to all attributes brought by full mood value also increased from 200% to 250%.

"This improvement is truly impressive, it's like a game of mowing down enemies in a fun-filled environment."

After Xiao Chang finished examining the corpse, Qin Muyuan, led by Xiao Chang, walked out of the county government office.

Outside is a quaint, old-fashioned county street. The game developers have done a great job, not only bringing out all kinds of stalls and snacks, but also making the NPCs on the street react very realistically.

Seeing Qin Muyuan emerge from the county government office covered in blood, the passersby and NPCs were so frightened that they hurriedly hid under the wooden shelves of the stalls.

As Qin Muyuan approached, he could still see the NPC covering his eyes, muttering repeatedly, "I didn't see anything! I didn't see anything."

Even when Qin Muyuan casually grabbed a lamb skewer from the roadside and stuffed it into his mouth, he could taste the incredibly authentic aroma of meat.

"So real! Absolutely so real!"

Qin Muyuan was full of praise.

He discovered that after he took a lamb skewer, Xiao Chang would actually take out two copper coins from his pocket and silently place them on the lamb skewer vendor's stall.

"A decent NPC, a gentleman!"

Qin Muyuan gave Xiao Chang a thumbs-up.

"Huh?" Xiao Chang didn't understand the meaning of Qin Muyuan's first sentence, but he understood the meaning of the second sentence, "gentleman," and immediately said seriously:

"We, as virtuous men, would never embezzle a single penny from the suffering people!"

Heishui County is not large, and soon Qin Muyuan followed Xiao Chang to the entrance of the Heishui County gate.

At the entrance, there were only four county soldiers guarding the place. They had just finished extorting money from a villager who wanted to enter the county when they saw Qin Muyuan covered in blood.

"Stop! Hands up—"

Windwalk!

Qin Mu took a step on the long journey, as if riding the wind, and instantly covered a distance of more than ten meters, arriving beside the guards of the county.

He unleashed the Flowing Cloud Hand technique, striking at the four county soldiers around him.

By the time Xiao Chang arrived from a dozen meters away, the battle was already over, and Qin Muyuan had already ended the lives of all the county soldiers.

"So strong..."

Xiao Chang looked at Qin Muyuan's figure with envy in his eyes.

If he hadn't been sickly since he contracted an illness at the age of seven, he too would have wanted to become a martial arts master like his brother...

Wait, does he not know your name yet?

Not even knowing the name of his savior, Xiao Chang felt extremely impolite and asked:

"Brother, may I ask your name and who your teacher is?"

Name? Apprenticeship?

Qin Muyuan thought to himself, "Integrating the naming process for game characters into the game is quite a novel design."

He pondered for a moment, then said:

"My name is Qin Muyuan."

He decided to use his real name so that it would feel more authentic.

Xiao Chang immediately bowed and addressed him as "Brother Qin," then respectfully asked, "Brother Qin possesses such strength; may I ask which master you studied under?"

"Master-disciple relationship?" Qin Muyuan asked casually upon hearing this.

"Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect".
