Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years

"On Tongling Peak!"

"The Purple Blood Spirit Fungus is right on top of Tongling Peak, at the entrance of a cave, where I left a secret mark back then."

"Back then, some of the good friends I made also died up there. A mysterious, ferocious beast lurks near the Purple Blood Spirit Fungus."

The news of the Purple Blood Spirit Fungus was also told to him by those friends.

It was because the Purple Blood Spirit Fungus grew next to the entrance of an exceptionally large cave, where traces of mutated beasts were present.

That's why those friends had called on him to jointly fight off the mutated beast, and then divide the Purple Blood Spirit Fungus equally.

However, what they didn't expect was that the mutated beast was impervious to blades and spears, possessed immense strength, and its sharp claws seemed capable of tearing everything apart.

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, his friends had lost their lives on the spot.

If he hadn't learned a martial arts movement technique and dodged several fatal attacks, he would have become a ghost under the claws of that mutated beast as well.

The man told everything without reservation, knowing that the man before him was his last chance.

After speaking, the man searched around the dilapidated temple. Finally, in a certain spot, he used both hands to dig out a wooden box that appeared withered and decayed on the surface.

Then, he took out a yellowed book from it, held it in his hand, and threw it towards Lu Xuan without hesitation.

Lu Xuan caught the yellowed book flying through the air and took a close look at the four large characters on the book: Chasing Wind Steps!

Then, Lu Xuan gently opened it with his right hand.

In the next second, a tremor came from Lu Xuan's mind, and the system panel appeared in his mind.

Host: Lu Xuan

Realm: Inner Qi Realm

Techniques: Crimson Flame Saber Art 2/9, Chasing Wind Steps? (Incomplete)

Points: 22

Chasing Wind Steps has defects. Please confirm whether to spend 20 points to deduce its completion.

Yes!

In the next moment, the points on the system panel changed, leaving only 2 points.

Chasing Wind Steps has been completely deduced!

When Lu Xuan looked at the system panel again, it had already changed.

Host: Lu Xuan

Realm: Inner Qi Realm

Techniques: Crimson Flame Saber Art 2/9, Chasing Wind Steps 0/9

Points: 2

Hmm? Why are there not enough system points? Lu Xuan was a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, 2 system points on the panel should be enough to deduce Chasing Wind Steps once. Why is there no reaction?

Before, when Lu Xuan deduced the Raging Flame Saber Art, one system point was enough.

Could it be that different techniques require different points from the system?

"How is it? Now that I've given you the martial arts movement technique first, you can finally believe me, right?"

The man surnamed Zhang spoke again, but he no longer had the same forceful tone as before.

After all, in order to bet on this hope, he had already handed over everything of value to the other party.

He only hoped that the other party could help him. If the other party went back on their word, then he could only consider it his fate.

After confirming that the martial arts movement technique was correct, Lu Xuan naturally wouldn't do anything to go back on his word.

As for the Purple Blood Spirit Fungus, whether it was true or false, he could only go and investigate it later.

It didn't matter if it was fake. After all, he had already obtained the martial arts movement technique he wanted most.

Lu Xuan didn't hesitate any longer and agreed to the man's conditions, uttering a word: "Okay!"

The man was overjoyed, knowing that his gamble had paid off: "Really!"

Daughter, did you hear that?

Wait, Dad will soon send that beast to hell, so he can also experience the pain you suffered.

Seeing that the man hadn't moved for a long time, Lu Xuan was a little puzzled. "Senior Zhang, are you planning to enter the city with us like this?"

This man's whole body exuded a strong stench, and there wasn't a single complete place on his clothes. He looked like a beggar.

In this state, he would probably be driven away by the city gate guards before he even got close to the city gate.

"Please wait a moment, I'll be ready soon!"

The man reacted, knowing that he couldn't even get close to the city gate in his current state, let alone enter the city.

So, the man moved quickly and immediately went to another place, digging a wooden box out of the ground with both hands.

The man gently stroked the surface of the wooden box, looking very gentle.

Because inside were all the mementos his daughter had left him.

The man took out a simple cloth garment, holding it as if it were a precious treasure, and then quickly left the dilapidated temple in one direction.

"Brother Xuan, that guy is crazy. Did you come to an agreement with him?"

At this time, Liang Cheng, who had been observing from a distance, walked over, looking at the departing man with some puzzlement.

Liang Cheng was very smart. He didn't try to inquire about the conversation between Lu Xuan and this man.

"Yes."

The latest novel is first published at Six 9 Books Ba!

In less than an hour, the man rushed over from a distance. With a few strides, he came to Lu Xuan and the others again.

At this time, the man's appearance had changed greatly. The dirt that had accumulated on his body for many years had been completely cleaned off, and he was wearing a clean, simple cloth garment.

He was wearing a simple bamboo hat on his head, covering his original appearance, but the man's long hair still looked a little messy.

Fragrance Tower!

The largest pleasure district in the county town, the guests in the building are even more extraordinary, all are wealthy children with noble identities and vast wealth.

Being able to open such a huge pleasure district in the center of the county town is enough to see how capable the owner of Fragrance Tower is.

Once, a wealthy young man caused trouble in it, and as a result, one of his legs was broken directly.

It is said that the family also had relatives with the county magistrate in the county town, but they didn't dare to fart, and in the end, the matter was over.

Inside Fragrance Tower, various fragrances are intertwined, and many young and beautiful women shuttle among them, seemingly looking for suitable prey.

Outside a luxurious and exquisite private room on the second floor, there are four strong and tall men, all with fierce expressions on their faces, making people daunting.

Inside the private room, a young man who looks overly indulgent is holding a scantily clad beautiful woman on both sides.

"Brother Huang, it's getting late. I think it's time to return to the mansion."

In front of the young man, there are also two young men sitting, both looking at the young man with flattering and ingratiating expressions.

After hearing this, the young man suddenly felt bored and waved his hand: "Forget it, this young master is going back to the mansion."

Then, while getting up, one hand grabbed the softness next to him forcefully, without any pity for the fairer sex.

The other party's painful exclamation allowed the young man to show an extremely happy and evil expression.

On the road, the night was hazy, and the pedestrians on the street gradually became scarce.

When the young man, with four strong guards, walked to a small road that no one passed by.

Two figures slowly walked out in front, blocking their inevitable path back.

Both figures were wearing bamboo hats on their heads, making it impossible to see their faces clearly.

Of course, upon seeing the young man, one of the figures lifted his bamboo hat, revealing his true face.

It was a man, and at this moment, a crazy smile appeared on his face, his eyes were as vicious as a viper, he looked at the young man, and said with gritted teeth.

"Beast, do you still recognize me? I've been thinking about you all the time!"
