Chapter 180: Chapter 143: A Gunshot_2

If one day I could pick it up, that would mean I have the ability to kill ghosts.

But thinking about this now is still premature; I need to hone my Martial Arts Cultivation, advancing my strength to Marrow Training, Blood Training, and even Refining Points.

If an Evolver’s body opens up the nine acupoints, incorporates blood into the Soul Entrance, and condenses Gang Qi, then Li Yi’s power would naturally skyrocket.

At that time, what would Yang Yilong count for? With Fist Gang erupting, I could knock him straight out. As for his half-baked boxing techniques, they would be like dog shit in front of Li Yi, no, even less than dog shit.

Without the support of Martial Arts Cultivation, boxing would not only be limited in achievement but also fail to unleash its full power—a fact deeply understood by Li Yi.

Just as Li Yi was lost in his wild thoughts.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, from a distance, a thunderous blast like a clap of thunder erupted, startling Li Yi and causing his precious steed to rear and neigh. However, after quickly regaining his composure, Li Yi controlled his horse and then looked towards the direction from which the sound came.

Others might not recognize it, but he did.

It wasn’t thunder; it was the sound of a gun.

Li Yi could instantly distinguish the sound of a Transcendent M200 sniper rifle.

"Gunshots? Is there a problem on Zhao Qian’s side? Go there immediately to check, Rong Niang, follow me," said Li Yi, reacting instantly and spurring his horse into a gallop, charging towards the direction of the gunfire.

Rong Niang also immediately mounted her horse and followed, with a trace of worry in her eyes.

Normally, Sanyang City’s Qi Cultivation Experts had already been defeated by Li Yi, the dead and the wounded, with no further threats remaining. Furthermore, the Chief of the Mighty Escort Agency had been won over by Zhao’s Martial Arts Hall and had become an ally, not an enemy. With these powers taken into account, there should be no Qi Cultivation Experts left.

With the strength of Master Zhao Ge, even though he was no longer at his peak, dealing with those Blood Refining Warriors should still be effortless, shouldn’t it?

In such a situation, Zhao Qian had no reason to fire a gun under any circumstances.

"That direction is... the territory of the Cao Yun Pier of the Cao Yun Liu Family. Has Master gotten into a conflict with the Liu Family?"

Rong Niang, having lived here for many years, immediately recognized which faction controlled the incident area and shared her analysis with Li Yi.

"Cao Yun Liu Family? Good, I remember this is also one of the forces to be cleared out, with the blood of many Zhao’s disciples on their hands," Li Yi said.

"Yes, Master is probably dealing with this matter," said Rong Niang.

"We will know the situation once we get there," said Li Yi.

Soon, the two of them rode their fast horses and quickly arrived at the scene. In no time, they saw a large river running through Sanyang City, with many boats docked above it. Near the largest dock, quite a crowd had gathered, and a faint smell of blood wafted in the air.

It appeared that not long ago, a fight had taken place here.

Li Yi galloped past and saw numerous corpses soaking in the nearby water. The deceased were all quite powerful in life—some had undergone Bone Training, some Marrow Training, and among them, there were even Blood Refining Warriors.

"Look, our junior sister is on that roof, and she’s alright," Rong Niang suddenly pointed and spotted Zhao Qian crouching on the rooftop, sniper rifle in hand.

At the moment, Zhao Qian seemed to be aiming her sniper rifle in one direction, ready to shoot and kill an enemy at any moment.

Meanwhile, among the crowd ahead, the sound of Fist Power echoed, accompanied by the rampage of Gang Qi, suggesting a Qi Cultivation Expert was in combat.

"Are there still Qi Cultivation Experts in Sanyang City? Let’s go, we must rush over immediately," Li Yi’s eyes sharpened, feeling somewhat astonished.

The waters of Sanyang City seemed to be much deeper than expected.

Whether it was Master Zhao Ge or Rong Niang, everyone openly knew of just two Martial Arts Hall masters and the City Lord of Sanyang City as Qi Cultivation Experts. However, once the waters became muddied, several more Qi Cultivation Experts surfaced out of nowhere, like the old servant at the City Lord Mansion, the Chief of Mighty Escort Agency... and with this one, three more Qi Cultivation Experts had emerged.

However, Li Yi soon understood; after all, for such a large Sanyang City, it was normal to have a few hidden masters.

At the same time.

In the midst of the crowd, Zhao Ge was fighting to the death with an elder over seventy years old, his hair and beard both white, his entire being exuding an aura of impending death.

"Grandmaster Liu, weren’t you supposed to have died five years ago due to the deficit of your Qi-Blood? The Liu Family even held a funeral for you. I never expected you to fake your death, still clinging to life in your seventies," Zhao Ge bellowed, punching out with a Fist Gang coalescing, wielding the essence of the Mountain Shattering Fist to its fullest.

Nevertheless, Grandmaster Liu was in a bad state, his eyes ablaze with fury. One of his arms had been blown to smithereens, leaving behind little more than skin and flesh. He could only struggle, supporting himself on one hand, as he fought with Zhao Ge.

Neither of the Qi Cultivation Experts was at their peak condition.

Zhao Ge, seriously injured and his Divine Soul damaged, couldn’t exert much of his strength, while Grandmaster Liu was weakened by age and declining Qi-Blood, and had also lost an arm. Despite this, their fight was still brutally fierce and vicious, each determined to kill the other.

"I faked my death for fear that the Liu Family would face a great disaster after my passing, so I secretly protected them. I never imagined that the first to attack me would be you, Zhao Ge. In your youth, when you traveled far and wide seeking martial arts teachers, my Liu Family even supported you financially. Yet you are so ungrateful, aiming to seize the Liu Family’s three generations of property?"

Grandmaster Liu was extremely angry. He too was a Martial Artist who had studied Boxing, and his punch, filled with Fist Gang, exploded with lethal intent. But alas, he was old and lacking in vigor, no longer possessing the strength of his youth.

"Your Liu Family even has the audacity to mention financial support? After I broke through to Qi Cultivation and established Zhao’s Martial Arts Hall, I don’t know how many troubles I’ve helped the Liu Family with, openly and secretly. Even after you faked your death, it was Zhao’s Martial Arts Hall that took care of the Liu Family in secret. And your Liu Family? When Zhao’s Martial Arts Hall was in trouble, you were more eager to kill our disciples than anyone else to completely cut ties. Now, the flagpoles at your Cao Yun Pier are adorned with the severed heads of Zhao’s disciples."

"How dare a heartless and ungrateful thing like your Liu Family speak of sentiments?"

Zhao Ge roared, his voice shaking souls, while also revealing the vile side of the Liu Family.

"It’s useless to talk more. Since you want the Liu Family to perish, I will drag you into the coffin with me."

Grandmaster Liu suddenly let out a long howl, no longer holding back. His Heart Blood erupted, like taking a strong tonic, his whole body’s Qi-Blood boiled, and his previously shriveled skin and flesh plumped up in an instant. His once lifeless body regained vitality in a flash.

He seemed to have grown twenty years younger, and a surge of peak condition strength swiftly flooded forth.
