Cultivating for Immorality: I Evolved Martial Arts into the Immortal Path – Chapter 141

Chapter 141: You Dare to Kill Me?

“What opportunity?”

Xu Tian’s eyes were icy cold, his gaze like two sharp blades, scraping across Qian Gui’s trembling body.

Qian Gui’s face was pale, his back soaked with cold sweat. He was completely sober now, no longer as muddled as before.

Seeing the situation before him, he cursed himself inwardly, wishing he could slap himself twice!

Why was he so loose-lipped? Why did he have to bring this up?

“Xu… Young Master Xu, this opportunity…”

Qian Gui’s lips trembled, trying hard to straighten his tongue, but no matter how he tried, he still stuttered.

Xu Tian did not rush him.

He simply waved his hand, dismissing the others and making everyone else leave.

The entire private room was left with only him and Qian Gui.

Xu Tian’s voice was cold: “Continue, if you satisfy me, you can work directly for me from now on.”

“Yes, yes…”

Qian Gui felt even more bitter. He didn’t want to work for Xu Tian!

This young master was known for his cruelty and tyranny. His hands were stained with blood, not only of his enemies but also of countless Green Robe Gang members.

Anyone who displeased him met only one fate: death.

“The… the thing is, I… I accidentally obtained a nest of Treasure Seeking Rats…”

Qian Gui was terrified, stammering as he recounted the whole story.

At first, Xu Tian was indifferent, but when he heard the words “Treasure Seeking Rat,” his eyes lit up, and he instantly became more spirited.

By the end, a cruel arc gradually formed at the corner of his mouth. He muttered in a low voice, “I never expected Chu Liang to have such an opportunity. So this is his secret? Very well… this opportunity is mine now.”

Opportunity belonged to the capable!

As long as he obtained the Treasure Seeking Rats, with them searching for various resources, his future path in martial arts would be smooth.

He, Xu Tian, would definitely become a genius that surpassed Chu Liang!

◈◈◈

Meanwhile.

Chu Liang hadn’t rested well all last night.

He had to deal with invitations from various forces in the county town.

It wasn’t until six in the morning, when the sky was just beginning to lighten, that he finally sent everyone away and collapsed onto his bed to rest.

He slept until noon.

Chu Liang got up, had a simple lunch, and began to practice the Blood Explosion Technique.

“The whole day’s work depends on a good start in the morning. I can’t slack off.” Chu Liang stood in the courtyard, circulating his Qi and Blood, his aura rising steadily.

“Master, it’s already noon,” Rat One said.

“Doesn’t matter. Whenever I wake up, that’s when morning starts.”

“Oh.”

Rat One wagged his tail, sitting on the stone table, his two small black eyes watching Chu Liang practice.

Chu Liang was indeed not slacking off.

He spent the entire afternoon repeatedly practicing the Blood Explosion Technique, his aura fluctuating.

By evening, he had become much more familiar with the Blood Explosion Technique and could activate it at any time.

“This feeling of power…”

Chu Liang stood in the sunset, his entire body bathed in the glow of dusk, clenching his fists tightly. His Qi and Blood surged, the veins on his arms bulged, and every muscle turned a bronze color, looking as perfect as a meticulously crafted sculpture.

A powerful conviction rose in his heart.

When he pushed the Blood Explosion Technique to its limit, he felt as if he could easily crush any Five Strands of Qi and Blood expert.

“I need a real battle to test my strength.”

Chu Liang slowly exhaled, calming his surging Qi and Blood.

In the past, he could have gone directly into the mountains to find demon beasts to hone himself and verify his strength.

But now, with only a few days left before entering the mountains, Chu Liang could only suppress all his thoughts and wait patiently for the day of the demon extermination.

“Rat One, what is Rat Two doing?” Chu Liang asked the little rat.

“Master, Rat Two is still observing Xu Long,” Rat One answered honestly.

“Oh? What did Xu Long do all day today?” Chu Liang sat down to rest, took a sip of tea, and asked casually.

“Today he… found nine concubines, closed the door, and played all day.”

“Again.”

Chu Liang was speechless about this guy.

During these days of observation, Xu Long had spent at least half his time indulging in wine and women.

This kind of life was too decadent.

Chu Liang shook his head. He was focused on martial arts and dared not waste time like this.

“Forget it, you guys continue to observe.”

Chu Liang got up, opened the courtyard gate, and planned to go to Tie Niu’s family’s noodle shop for a bowl of noodles.

◈◈◈

In the martial arts hall, many disciples were still practicing. Seeing Chu Liang, they all saluted.

“Senior Martial Brother Chu!”

“Greetings, Senior Martial Brother Chu!”

Most of the disciples’ gazes were filled with respect, while some showed envy.

The whole county knew that the Qin family wanted to recruit Chu Liang as their son-in-law.

With the Qin family as his backing, Chu Liang’s future path in martial arts would be much smoother, and his chances of advancing to the Skin Tempering Realm would greatly increase.

Once he became a Skin Tempering Realm expert, the Qin family would have two Skin Tempering Realm experts. They might even consider expanding to the prefectural city and leading the entire family out of the impoverished county town.

Moreover, Miss Qin Yu of the Qin family herself might also become a Skin Tempering Realm expert.

In the future, the Qin family might have a flourishing period with three Skin Tempering Realm experts.

This was how a family gradually grew and prospered.

“Junior martial brothers and sisters, practice well and don’t be distracted.”

Chu Liang smiled and greeted the others.

His achievement in the Blood Explosion Technique put him in a good mood.

He walked all the way to the gate of the martial arts hall, opened it, and walked straight out, heading towards Tie Niu’s family’s noodle shop in the south of the city under the evening glow.

But he had only taken a few steps when he was stopped.

“Brother Chu, please wait.”

Xu Tian emerged from a small alley, a calm smile on his face.

Beside Xu Tian was Qian Gui, his face pale.

Qian Gui was now freezing cold, his forehead covered in cold sweat. He kept his head down, not daring to look at Chu Liang.

“Brother Xu, what’s the matter?”

Chu Liang looked calm. As soon as he saw Qian Gui, he roughly understood what was going on.

Xu Tian smiled confidently, “Brother Chu, I heard you have two Treasure Seeking Rats. Can you take them out for me to see?”

“They’re already dead,” Chu Liang said indifferently.

“Oh?”

Xu Tian smiled, “Brother Chu, we are both smart people, so I won’t beat around the bush. I want your pair of Treasure Seeking Rats. As for the price, you can name it, and I will try my best to satisfy you.”

“There’s no need to discuss this,” Chu Liang shook his head, directly refusing.

“Is that so?”

Xu Tian’s expression suddenly turned cold.

He put away his previous smile and said to Chu Liang, “Chu Liang, I don’t care what kind of fortuitous encounter you had, whether it’s Treasure Seeking Rats or something else, I must have it!”

“How do you plan to get it?” Chu Liang’s expression remained unchanged as he asked.

“Of course, by making you hand it over to me personally!”

Xu Tian sneered, a hint of cruelty on his face.

He pointed in a direction and said, “Chu Liang, your second uncle’s family lives in an alley over there, right?”

Chu Liang’s expression was indifferent: “So you’re using my relatives to threaten me.”

“Hehe, not just relatives,” Xu Tian’s voice was icy cold. “Chu Liang, if you refuse to hand over your fortuitous encounter, then your second uncle’s family, all your relatives and friends in Qing Shi Village, and the friends you’ve made in the county town… will all die!”

His eyes flashed with ferocity, a hint of savagery on his face.

Ruthlessness, this was the Green Robe Gang’s style!

“Chu Liang, do you understand?”

Xu Tian was filled with killing intent as he said coldly, “I will eliminate them one by one. Don’t doubt the methods of my Green Robe Gang. You do have some ability, but can you watch over everyone? Think about this question!”

He had thrown a difficult problem at Chu Liang.

Chu Liang’s energy was limited. He indeed couldn’t watch over everyone.

His expression remained indifferent, only a hint of coldness in his eyes as he looked at Xu Tian in front of him… If he couldn’t solve the problem, then he would just have to solve the person causing the problem.

“Chu Liang, you want to kill me?”

Xu Tian sneered. He felt the killing intent from Chu Liang, but he was not afraid at all.

He was also a prodigy. The entire Green Robe Gang’s martial arts resources were tilted towards him.

He was young but was already about to condense his third strand of Qi and Blood.

Xu Tian believed that even if he was no match for Chu Liang, he could hold out for a while.

“Chu Liang, you better think clearly. This is the county town, and it’s broad daylight. Do you dare to kill me in the street?”

Xu Tian did not back down. He was cruel, even provoking Chu Liang with his words, forcing him to act.

“If you don’t dare, I will now return to the Green Robe Gang headquarters, mobilize my men, and have them secretly kill your relatives one by one!”
