My Life Can Be Simulated Infinitely – Chapter 30

Ch 30: The Number One Martial Arts School Under Heaven

Zheng Anyu immediately noticed the old man’s unusual behavior and quickly asked, “Senior, what’s wrong?”

The old man continued to eat the roasted chicken in his hand, muttering, “Fifth-Rank.”

Fifth-Rank?

Zheng Anyu was startled and followed his gaze, seeing the young man who had gotten out of the carriage in front. He looked ordinary, yet he actually had a Fifth-Rank cultivation?

Looking at this person, he seemed to be only in his early twenties.

At this age, with such a cultivation level, he must be a core disciple of some prominent family or sect.

Even in the Zheng Family, there was no one of his generation this outstanding.

Such a person, coming to Xiang Prefecture, was no small matter.

Why hadn’t they received any news about this before?

Zheng Anyu looked closely. Neither the carriage nor the clothes the other person wore had anything that could indicate his origins.

Generally speaking, when disciples of major families and sects went out to train, they would bring some iconic items or patterns to make things easier.

However, this person had nothing on him, making it impossible to discern his background.

“Zhou Qing is here for this person!”

At the same time, Zheng Anyu understood this point, and he couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy.

He finally understood what the old man meant earlier, that it was best not to watch this spectacle.

The Lin Family sent Zhou Qing to intercept and kill this Fifth-Rank martial artist of unknown origin, definitely not wanting anyone to know. Now, he had stumbled upon it.

Would he kill him to silence him?

Thinking of this, Zheng Anyu felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

However, thinking that there was a senior by his side, he felt slightly more at ease.

“With Senior here, there shouldn’t be any danger, right?”

◈◈◈

“Fifth-Rank?”

After Gu Yang got out of the carriage and walked step by step, Zhou Qing, sensing his Qi, slightly raised his head, a hint of surprise in his tone.

The information he received was that this target was supposed to have a Sixth-Rank cultivation.

The other person did not speak, silently drawing out a cleaver.

It was a very ordinary firewood cleaver, only the edge was polished brightly, and there were a few small nicks on it.

He looked at the other person, whose appearance was the same as in the portrait, confirming that he had not found the wrong person, and said, “You’re going to fight me with this knife?”

“To kill you, it’s enough.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the other person’s aura suddenly changed, and he slashed at him with his knife.

In an instant, Zhou Qing could see nothing but the knife in front of him.

This is—

His eyes narrowed, and a look of shock flashed across his face.

Saber Intent!

An incomparably sharp saber intent instantly destroyed his mind, causing an irresistible sense of fear to arise in his heart.

No—

By the time Zhou Qing finally reacted, the blade was already in front of him.

A flash of blood appeared.

The sword in his hand was only halfway out of its sheath.

With a thud, Zhou Qing fell to the ground, his vision filled with a large patch of crimson red. He only saw the young man flicking the blood off the blade, then suddenly turning around and walking step by step towards the carriage.

His mouth moved, wanting to say something, but he couldn’t make a sound. Then, he fell into endless darkness.

◈◈◈

On the Zheng Family’s carriage, Zheng Anyu was dumbfounded. He had personally witnessed the young man raise his knife and, as if it were child’s play, cut Zhou Qing down on the spot.

For a moment, he thought he was hallucinating.

Zhou Qing was a hidden pawn of the Lin Family in Xiang Prefecture, specializing in doing shady things. To the Zheng Family, he was nothing less than a thorn in their side and a splinter in their flesh.

◈◈◈

It wasn’t that the Zheng Family hadn’t thought about getting rid of him. They had spent a great deal of money to hire a lone Fifth-Rank martial artist, but he was killed by Zhou Qing.

This person’s strength was extraordinary, and none of the Zheng Family’s Fifth-Ranks were confident.

As for the Fourth-Ranks, the Zheng Family only had a few. If they made a move, it would definitely not escape the Lin Family’s notice, and it would only cause more trouble.

Such a headache of a person for the Zheng Family was actually killed with one strike!

Zheng Anyu looked at Zhou Qing lying in the pool of blood, confirming that the man was completely dead, and swallowed hard.

“Se…Senior, what…what kind of saber technique was that?”

The old man next to him was trembling, the grease from the roasted chicken dripping onto his clothes, but he didn’t notice. After a while, he murmured, “《Severing Mountain Saber Technique》!”

Severing Mountain Saber Technique?

Zheng Anyu carefully recalled it, and finally remembered, blurting out, “Tianxin Martial Arts School!”

The Tianxin Martial Arts School, known as the number one martial arts school under heaven.

Its master, Cheng Tianxin’s, experience was legendary. Born from humble beginnings, he relied on a 《Mystic Origin Skill》 to cultivate all the way to the Second-Rank Realm.

After becoming famous, he refused to join any faction and instead founded the Tianxin Martial Arts School. He accepted disciples regardless of their background, only considering their talent. As long as their talent was sufficient, they could enter the martial arts school and learn profound cultivation techniques.

Over the past twenty years, he had successively trained three Third-Rank martial artists, nearly ten Fourth-Ranks, and countless Fifth and Sixth-Ranks.

For countless commoners, the Tianxin Martial Arts School was undoubtedly a martial arts holy land.

Jiang Prefecture was quite far from the Divine Capital, and Zheng Anyu had only heard of this number one martial arts school under heaven.

So far, there had never been a disciple of the Tianxin Martial Arts School who had traveled to Xiang Prefecture.

Zheng Anyu became somewhat conflicted. Should he go forward to pay his respects?

Most of the disciples of the Tianxin Martial Arts School came from humble backgrounds, and it was said that they were always very hostile towards the scions of prominent families.

Just as he was hesitating, a person came down from the carriage in front, buried the corpse by the roadside, and then continued on.

“Forget it, it’s better not to go.”

Zheng Anyu didn’t want to get involved in the conflict between the Tianxin Martial Arts School and the Lin Family. The Zheng Family couldn’t afford to offend either of these two forces.

◈◈◈

After nightfall, Zheng’s group arrived at another small town. To avoid that disciple of the Tianxin Martial Arts School, they had deliberately slowed down.

After Zheng Anyu had made the arrangements, he personally carried the dishes to the carriage. When he opened the door, he saw that it was empty. The old man had disappeared.

On the seat, there was only a torn piece of cloth left, with a few lines of writing scribbled on it.

He sighed with disappointment, knowing that the senior had left after all.

Moreover, he vaguely guessed that this senior had probably gone to find that disciple of the Tianxin Martial Arts School.

Finally, he looked at the piece of cloth, thinking, at least it wasn’t a complete loss.

◈◈◈

A dozen miles away was a city called Tianmu City, which was quite prosperous.

Gu Yang and the others arrived in the evening. After settling Su Qingzhi and the others, he went alone to the Sihai Bank in the city and exchanged the four thousand taels of silver notes he had gotten from Dong Xuan for ready silver.

He also took out the silver notes he had received from Su Qingzhi, but was told that these silver notes required a secret code to be exchanged.

Su Qingzhi hadn’t lied to him after all.

After Gu Yang got the money, he found a secluded place and recharged the money into the system. Seeing that his balance had become more than four thousand, he felt much more at ease.

With money, he could become stronger.

Now, he could carry out two more life simulations, and his strength could reach a new level.
