I manage female characters in all the heavens.

If she's frugal, this money would be enough to support her a life of luxury.

The lives of the rich are so dull, boring, and lonely!

The waiter smiled broadly and said, "Please enjoy your meal, sir. Don't hesitate to call me if you need anything!"

"Li Mochou" nodded, "Then you shouldn't leave yet."

"Yes, something did happen. I overheard them talking downstairs about the Hungry Wolf Gang being wiped out."

"Waiter, do you know the identity of the murderer who wiped out the family, or do you have any clues?"

Xiao Er recalled that a few days ago, the beautiful girl in front of him was "invited" to dinner by the Hungry Wolf Gang, but returned unharmed. Not long after, news spread that the Hungry Wolf Gang had been wiped out.

Faced with the question, the waiter's back was soaked with cold sweat as he carefully considered his words and the reason why the other party asked the question.

Don't you know who destroyed the entire clan? Asking me this, you don't mean you think I know something and are afraid I'll report you to the authorities, do you?

"You're innocent, heroine! I haven't revealed a single word!"

The entire Hungry Wolf Gang, numbering over ninety, was slaughtered. Many had their brains splattered out; the murderer was truly brutal.

The waiter, fearing he would suffer the same fate as the Hungry Wolf Gang and be slapped into a pancake by the heroine, immediately knelt down.

"My lady, please understand! I truly know nothing and have seen nothing!"

"Your beauty and kindness are absolutely unrelated to the massacre of the Hungry Wolf Gang, heroine!"

"If anyone dares to spread nonsense and slander the fairy, I will be the first to stand up against them, strike them down, and beat them until they are bleeding from the head!"

After saying this, he kowtowed repeatedly, each time with a loud and clear sound.

He desperately wanted to live!

Li Mochou was quite speechless.

I don't think I'm some kind of monster. I was just asking casually. I haven't even said what I'm going to do yet, and you're already acting like I'm some kind of scary person.

Have you no manners at all?!

After dismissing the waiter, "Li Mochou" ate her meal, still puzzled.

"It would be easy to find out that I was the one who wiped out the Hungry Wolf Gang. Many people in the Drunken Immortal Restaurant saw me being taken away by them that day. With a little deduction, it would be easy to conclude that I was involved."

"But why hasn't the government taken any action after so many days? They haven't even come to ask me a question."

"Is the loss of nearly a hundred lives in the Hungry Wolf Gang insignificant, or has my Ancient Tomb Sect already wielded absolute power without my knowledge?"

Theoretically speaking, such a family annihilation case has a very serious impact, and the perpetrator must be punished to the fullest extent of the law.

But in reality, this kind of thing happens all the time in the martial arts world. Every day, some gang or some sect gets wiped out, and everyone is used to it.

The government certainly wanted to bring the murderer to justice, but the underworld was too powerful, and the government was powerless to do anything about it, so it could only turn a blind eye.

In the past, when the Hungry Wolf Gang preyed on the people, the government did nothing. Now that the Hungry Wolf Gang has been wiped out, the government is even less likely to interfere.

"The affairs of the martial world should be settled within the martial world, that's the rule. How many masters does the government have? Do you dare to interfere in the affairs of the martial world?"

It's only because "Li Mochou" lacked experience in the martial arts world that she found it strange; true veterans had already stormed the palace, burning, killing, and looting.

It's just wiping out a family, don't take it to heart!

Having figured it out, Li Mochou fell silent. She never imagined that the martial arts world could be so dark.

It's amazing!

After finishing her meal, "Li Mochou" was preparing to go to the clinic to continue learning pharmacology from the old man.

That old man is no ordinary person, and he possesses considerable martial arts skills; perhaps he holds some kind of extraordinary opportunity.

Since he's willing to teach me things for free, I might as well learn them.

As soon as she left Zuixianlou, "Li Mochou" stopped moving.

She shifted her gaze slightly, looking at a man a few feet away who was disheveled and looked like a beggar.

An invisible aura emanated from the man, enveloping him.

Beneath those tattered clothes, a strong body was pulsating, as if gathering earth-shattering power.

His eyes were somewhat cloudy, but at this moment they were incredibly sharp, landing fiercely on "Li Mochou," sending chills down her spine.

This is a master, far stronger than Li Mochou is now, and he harbors malice towards her.

Based on his appearance, martial arts skills, and location, "Li Mochou" guessed the identity of the person who came.

Wu Santong, one of the disciples of Master Yideng, the "Southern Emperor," was a farmer among the "fisher, woodcutter, farmer, and scholar."

This is one of the most renowned masters in the martial arts world today, having been famous for many years. She is far beyond the reach of the newly emerged "Li Mochou".

This master actually harbored murderous intent towards her, leaving even "Li Mochou" somewhat at a loss.

She had already resolved her grievances with Lu Zhanyuan and voluntarily withdrawn from the conflict, so why did Wu Santong still come looking for her?

He Yuanjun, I've already given you all my men, are you still going to drive me to my death?!

Wu Santong's eyes were piercing, his aura was stern, and he took a step forward, his killing intent rising even higher.

Li Mochou's mind raced, and she suddenly retreated, drifting into the Drunken Immortal Pavilion.

Ancient Tomb Lightness Skill, at full power!

At the same moment she moved, Wu Santong also moved.

He extended a finger, channeling his powerful inner force into it, and stomped his feet heavily on the ground as he charged towards "Li Mochou," simultaneously pointing out his finger!

One-Finger Divine Skill!

They unleashed their ultimate move right from the start!

The Wu Santong of today is not the crazy old man he would become decades later. Having just suffered a "heartbreak," he is still clear-headed and can fully display the exquisite skills of his martial arts.

Even though Li Mochou had retreated very quickly, Wu Santong still managed to close the distance by striking first.

boom!

As Li Mochou retreated, she kicked over the tables and chairs next to her and smashed them at Wu Santong.

However, Wu Santong completely ignored them, tearing through all obstacles with a single finger and continuing to approach relentlessly!

This finger strike, imbued with forty years of skill, can you withstand it?

Amidst a flurry of flying debris, Li Mochou's eyes were icy cold. Facing the impending force of the One-Finger Divine Skill, she decided to fight to the death!

Don't think you're invincible just because you have the One-Finger Divine Skill. My Ancient Tomb Kung Fu is no less than anyone else's!

Chapter 17 My resolve is greater than yours!

The power of the One-Finger Divine Skill is condensed and profound. Although it is only a tiny finger, it is like a wall crashing down, leaving no room to dodge left or right.

Li Mochou took a deep breath, her inner strength surging forth, channeling it into the major acupoints of her arms and legs through intricate pathways, connecting the power of her entire body.

The force originates from the ground and is instantly transmitted along the body to the arms and fingertips.

The arm that was originally placed at the side of the body suddenly lashed out, soft and boneless, wrapping around Wu Santong's right hand like a whip.

The powerful internal energy transformed into a flowing stream, not resisting head-on, but instead meandering around and enveloping the force of the One-Finger Divine Skill from the side.

Before Wu Santong could react, Li Mochou changed her force without hesitation, transforming her strength into refined steel around her finger, like a spring avoiding the sharp edge, temporarily intercepting the One-Finger Divine Skill and freezing it in mid-air!

A hint of surprise flashed in Wu Santong's eyes. His opponent had instantly seen that his One-Finger Divine Skill was not up to par and that he could not achieve a balance of strength and gentleness, so he chose to use gentleness to overcome strength.

While I was still meticulously practicing boxing and honing my basics at his age, he had already grasped these metaphysical martial arts concepts and ideas, and applied them to actual combat with remarkable success...

Genius, how enviable!

But if you think that this will stop my One-Finger Divine Skill, you're being too naive!

"Ah!"

With a soft shout, Wu Santong unleashed an inner force far surpassing that of "Li Mochou," pouring his powerful and masculine inner force into his fingertips, instantly shattering the opponent's strength!

The energies clashed, producing a dull boom, tearing the air apart and releasing visible white mist!

Li Mochou's right sleeve exploded open, her fair skin torn open by the raging energy, and drops of blood flew up.

Her internal energy was forcibly torn apart, and the backlash from the reversed internal force even damaged her meridians and internal organs, which had only been recovering for less than half an hour.

However, she paid no attention to it, ignoring her bleeding right hand and internal injuries, and released the silver needles that she had prepared in her left hand.

Jade Bee Sting!

The white mist from the clash of energies had not yet dissipated, obscuring Wu Santong's vision and preventing him from noticing the needle immediately.

Underestimating his opponent led him to choose a head-on confrontation to overcome the previous energy blockage. A large amount of internal energy was mobilized to his fingertips, naturally causing the defenses of other parts of his body to weaken.

It is extremely difficult to switch to defense or even evasion immediately when you are attacking with all your might.

To assume that you can instantly kill the enemy and therefore justify using a one-hit kill tactic without leaving any room for error is arrogance.

By the time he realized this move, even though he had tried his best to redirect his internal energy to defend, he was still a step too late.

Whoosh!

"what!"

Wu Santong unleashed his internal energy, creating a violent gust of wind that forced back the approaching "Li Mochou," while he himself staggered backward, clutching his right eye.

This injection ruined one of his eyes!

Li Mochou moved with the agility of a swallow, suppressing her injuries, fluttering around like a butterfly, continuously firing jade bee needles at Wu Santong with her remaining left hand.

"Damn it!" Wu Santong pulled the silver needle out of his eye, ignoring his ruined eye, and focused on dealing with the incoming silver needles.

Despite the Jade Bee Needle's ability to break through Qi, it was completely ineffective against him despite his serious efforts.

A dozen or so silver needles were thrown back by the strong force of the air, thudding and embedding themselves in the pillars and beams of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion.

With his remaining eyes fixed on "Li Mochou", Wu Santong unleashed his inner strength and powerful physique, seeing through her movements and taking two steps to her path, where he struck out with a palm!

Before the fierce force even reached her, it blew up Li Mochou's hair, making her body feel cold.

Helpless, she could only forcibly switch her internal energy pathways, using her advanced lightness skill to lift her body and flip into the air to avoid the dangerous palm strike.

"puff!"

Before she even landed, a mouthful of blood gushed out, and this dodge aggravated her internal injuries even more.
