Kill Me More Times, I’ll Become Invincible

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed once again, the approaching storm suddenly stopped, and the moon appeared as the clouds cleared.

The faint moonlight scattered through the cracks of the leaves, illuminating a small patch of ground.

The tall figure of the Martial Saint stood on a small hill, with moonlight shining on his shoulder, casting a long shadow.

Behind him stood several others, their whole bodies covered in robes and wearing masks, their faces hidden from view.

Wu Rulong was also among them.

He looked up at the back of the Martial Saint, feeling his heartbeat inexplicably quicken.

Wu Rulong is a genius in spear technique among the seventy two wise men. Since the incident in Xishan Village, he fell into Qiao Mu’s hands and was imprisoned.

Originally, Hai Siyuan was still sending messages by pigeons, trying to contact the divine catcher Wei En who knows interrogation techniques, but it was too late in the end.

"Greetings, adoptive father."

Wu Rulong spoke softly, feeling slightly nervous.

He was a genius in spear techniques, a first-ranked Spirit Refining martial artist, one of the martial arts geniuses found by the Martial Saint, representing a promising talent in the Wuji Association for the future.

But this promising talent discovered…

The Martial Saint’s progress seemed to be faster than his, so when they met again after several months, he felt that the Martial Saint’s aura was deep and vast, even more powerful than before.

"Fortunately, I have switched from the ‘Martial Saint Spiritual Technique’ to practicing the ‘Taotie Swallowing Heaven Skill’."

Wu Rulong also felt relieved.

Practitioners of the Martial Saint Spiritual Technique can intuitively sense each other, but the "Taotie Swallowing Heaven Skill" does not have this ability.

If they continue to practice the "Martial Saint Spiritual Technique", the huge gap in strength between them…

Wu Rulong might feel a strong warning instinct when facing the Martial Saint, like a rabbit meeting a tiger, it could be embarrassing.

Wu Rulong knows very well… the Martial Saint dislikes two types of people the most, the incompetent ones and the cowards.

If Wu Rulong appears weak in front of the Martial Saint after months of separation… he might end up dying at the Martial Saint’s hands immediately.

On the contrary, if he is facing a talented and useful descendant, or a powerful strong person, he tends to be considerate and patient.

"adoptive father."

"In these past few months, although I was captured by the Qiao family members and kept in this mansion’s cellar, I did not reveal the secrets of my Wuji Association…"

Just as Wu Rulong was about to speak again, he saw the Martial Saint turn towards him, looking directly at him.

For some reason, Wu Rulong suddenly stopped talking.

"I didn’t ask you that," Martial Saint said lightly.

"Regarding the matter of Xishan Village, it is fate deciding. He went with you, but in the end, only he returned."

"Tell me the whole story from beginning to end."

"….Yes."

Wu Rulong bowed his head.

If we were to tell the story seriously, that time at Xishan Village was when Immortal Gate Taoist Child Yu Shan brought many spiritual beasts to surround the mountain, Wu Qiankun pretended to be dead to escape using the Turtle Breath Technique.

However, he left behind the younger Wu Rulong, causing Wu Rulong to fall into Qiao Mu’s hands.

That is not the main point.

In the Wuji Association, talented people have higher value. Wu Qiankun’s actions, although not entirely appropriate, were understandable.

Wu Qiankun is more useful than Wu Rulong, so it was understandable that he escaped.

The key is…

"Is the adoptive father trying to understand what happened to Wu Qiankun that day through me?"

Wu Rulong had this thought in his mind.

……………..

After he explained the situation, another person arrived swiftly.

This person wore a black mask with a crescent moon symbol on his face and was dressed in a black robe, he was the Moon Xuan Envoy from the Southwest Province.

The Moon Xuan Envoy bowed to the Martial Saint.

"Wei En and Lu Yanbei were stopped by us just now, and are now on their way to Peach Blossom Villa."

"Should we take care of these two?"

"No need," replied Martial Saint.

Martial Saint entered Peach Blossom Villa this time to both assess the truth about Qiao Xin, who had killed the Nascent Soul Elder, and secretly take Wu Rulong away to ask him a few questions about Wu Qiankun.

Disguised with the Flesh Changing Skill, he just didn’t want to cause a scene at the moment. Even if he came openly, he could naturally take Wu Rulong away.

"Let’s go," said Martial Saint.

"Follow me to see the current situation."

"Also… inform Ming Kong to come to Southwest Province," said Martial Saint.

Both Moon Xuan Envoy and Wu Rulong were surprised.

The seventy two wise men is a ranking based on wisdom and talent, not on martial arts or combat abilities.

Wu Rulong is ranked fiftieth, and Wu Qiankun is ranked third.

In reality, in terms of strength alone, Wu Qiankun is already the strongest among the seventy two wise men, being the closest to the Martial Saint called "Little Martial Saint".

However, in the eyes of the Martial Saint, there are two people within the seventy two wise men who are more important and have more outstanding talent than Wu Qiankun.

Wu Mingkong is the second-ranked person among the seventy two wise men.

"Could it be that the Martial Saint is dissatisfied with Wu Qiankun and is preparing to have Lord Mingkong take charge of the Southwest Province?"

This thought crossed the mind of Moon Xuan Envoy.

The Wuji Association is a secretive martial arts force that spans the Jiu Province.

Currently, Wu Qiankun is in charge of the Southwest Province, and the other eight provinces also have wise men overseeing the big picture.

According to the Wuji Association’s estimation, the Yunxiao Sect in the Southwest Province is considered to be at the bottom among the Nine Immortal Gates. Even though it is still a formidable force for the Wuji Association, it is relatively easier to deal with.

Therefore, sending Wu Qiankun to develop in the Southwest Province is actually a great expectation for him, hoping that he will grow rapidly and take on important responsibilities.

But now…

The Martial Saint seemed to understand the Moon Xuan Envoy’s thoughts, and simply said:

"When Mingkong arrives in the Southwest Province, let her join the Peach Blossom Villa."

"Huh?" This time Wu Rulong and Moon Xuan Envoy were both shaken in their hearts.

"Saint, if you want to learn secretly, why would you need Lord Mingkong to come personally?" Moon Xuan Envoy asked in surprise.

In his opinion, sneaking into a place like the Peach Blossom Villa dedicated to studying martial arts shouldn’t be too difficult.

Even Wu Rulong, who is not in the top fifty rankings, does not need to go. Sending a local Star Xuan Envoy would be enough.

Little did Martial Saint know that when he had a thought, he would send Wu Mingkong, who ranked above Wu Qiankun, on a mission.

"Why would I need to learn from others? The Wuji Association has mastered the martial arts from various prestigious schools. There is no need to steal knowledge," said Martial Saint calmly.

Wu Qiankun is the best in martial arts, and also excels in spiritual refining.

However, Wu Mingkong is different.

She is considered the most talented among three thousand martial arts geniuses that Martial Saint spent forty years searching for in Jiu Province, with the highest aptitude and understanding, truly a genius among geniuses.

Through Martial Saint’s eyes, calling her the best martial arts genius in Jiu Province is not an exaggeration.

"A place like Peach Blossom Villa is perfect for demonstrating martial arts skills," he said.

"Perhaps in a few years, I might have a moment like the Earth Sword Immortal in his youth, with the day my sword sees the light again," thought Martial Saint before walking away.

As the saying goes, in the world of culture, there is no absolute best, and in the world of martial arts, there is no second to none.

The first place is actually hard to determine.

If there is something widely recognized as the best in the world, then the level of this best in the world will definitely surpass all other martial artists.

Wu Mingkong is the same.

The previous person known as the top martial talent in Jiu Province was the young Earth Sword Immortal from fifty or sixty years ago.

Martial Saint is a contemporary of Earth Sword Immortal. Before he created the "Martial Saint Spiritual Technique", he was always overshadowed by extraordinary talents like Earth Sword Immortal, so he couldn’t underestimate him.

In Martial Saint’s current perspective and experience, anyone he recognizes as the top talent is truly exceptional.

"Moon Xuan Envoy, where is Wu Qiankun in Southwest Province?" Martial Saint asked as he turned around.

"He went to Yangmen City half a day ago." Mentioning Wu Qiankun, Moon Xuan Envoy also appeared somewhat anxious.

"Yangmen City was captured by the Feather King Army over half a month ago. The city has a population of tens of thousands and also houses the Yunxiao Sect’s temple, with cultivators stationed there."

"If anything happens in this city, it will definitely alarm the Immortal Gate…" Moon Xuan Envoy looked at Martial Saint’s face, trying to read his emotions.

Martial Saint is not a kind saint, and Moon Xuan Envoy is unsure of the attitude that the Martial Saint, who came to Southwest Province, has towards Wu Qiankun.

To his disappointment, he couldn’t see any obvious likes or dislikes on Martial Saint’s face, he remained as profound and inscrutable as usual.

……………………

The night grew darker.

The banquet was over, with dishes and cups scattered around, the white-headed soldiers led the crowd to rest in the mansion.

Peach Blossom Villa was not small, accommodating five hundred people with ease, not to mention Li Changshi also possessed a treasure left by Earth Sword Immortal, the Stone City.

Qiao Mu extended his finger, a trickle of wine appearing at the tip, he was starting to sober up.

Qiao Mu had always thought he could hold his liquor well, not getting crazy or saying inappropriate things when drunk.

This time spent Long Life Dream for four hundred years, intending to indulge a bit, but ended up reacting slower due to being drunk compared to when sober.

"Someone sneaked into the manor unnoticed and released Wu Rulong without anyone noticing?"

Qiao Mu looked at Wei En and Lu Yanbei who had just arrived.

Meeting old friends should have been a good thing, but upon a quick look around the manor, they found out Wu Rulong was already gone.

"This time, it’s probably not due to negligence of the manor’s residents." Wei En said solemnly.

"The person who sneaked into the manor might be the Martial Saint."

Wei En briefly mentioned his own experiences in Linhe City.

After deducing that the Martial Saint might come to Peach Blossom Villa, he hurried over to warn the Qiao family member.

However, he was intercepted by a group of mysterious people halfway there, likely from the Wuji Association trying to prevent him from interfering.

Wei En was worried that Wuji Association was holding him back because they thought Martial Saint would cause trouble at Peach Blossom Villa, but Martial Saint came and left without making any noise.

"So it was Martial Saint?" Qiao Mu whispered.

The last time Qiao Mu saw Martial Saint was in Nan Province.

The bearded guest this time made Qiao Mu feel a connection, especially when Qiao Mu talked about martial arts, he felt that this person was a rare find.

Qiao Mu thought about various things and then his eyes landed on a book named "Blood Meat Oven" nearby.

The style of this secret book seemed different from others like "Thirteen Horizontal Exercises" and "Iron Mountain Fist". However, since someone had just finished giving gifts, Qiao Mu did not want to read it immediately.

Upon learning that Martial Saint had just been there, Qiao Mu searched the entire villa inside out but did not find any hidden clues left by Martial Saint, which put his mind at ease.

"Let’s put Martial Saint’s matter aside, Wei En. Since you’re here, you can’t leave just like that."

Qiao Mu grabbed Wei En and directly gave him a book called "Divine Transformation Technique".

"This divine technique is not just given to you, but you must also pass it on to Founding Emperor Yan," said Qiao Mu frankly.

Wei En was stunned for a moment, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes.

Founding Emperor Yan is currently the wielder of the Human Emperor Sword. He has lived for three hundred years, his internal strength is unparalleled in the world, and he used to be ranked first in the Strength List.

If he can master the divine technique and convert all his accumulated internal strength into True strength, his power will surely advance rapidly like Qiao Mu’s.

So Wei En was very surprised, he could even say he found Qiao Mu’s thoughts hard to understand.

Qiao Jin and his three hundred old soldiers who invaded the palace to assassinate Emperor Yonghe are still wanted on the Great Yan Imperial Court’s wanted list.

This is different from the symbolic wanted status of Qiao Xin in Linhe City.

Assassinating the current emperor is an unforgivable crime. Even if Founding Emperor Yan is forgiving, Qiao Jin and his three hundred old soldiers will not be spared.

If they meet again, it will surely be before two armies.

Qiao Mu waved his hand and said, "The martial arts of Peach Blossom Villa will inevitably fall into the hands of the court sooner or later, so I might as well send them directly."

"Since I dared to establish Peach Blossom Villa, I am not afraid of others learning our martial arts."

Although Founding Emperor Yan was a formidable enemy of Qiao Mu, he was also one of the few top martial artists in the entire Jiu Province with the ambition to conquer immortals.

In Qiao Mu’s view, despite the irreconcilable contradictions between them, he still considered the people of Great Yan as his own subjects.

"Mr. Qiao’s magnanimity truly puts me to shame," Wei En said admiringly, bowing respectfully.

"If Mr. Qiao needs my help, feel free to ask for my assistance," Wei offered.

He came this time out of goodwill to remind Qiao Xin, based on their previous acquaintance with the Qiao family members.

To his surprise, Qiao Xin did not heed his warning at all, but instead received immense benefits like the "Divine Transformation Technique."

Wei En’s eyes welled up with tears as he recalled how he had been victimized during the previous version update, being surpassed by martial artists from the Imperial Capital and boosting their reputation.

The clouds parted to reveal the moon, making him one of the first practitioners of the "Divine Transformation Technique."

"I really need your help with something," said Qiao Mu.

"The Founding Emperor Yan must have investigated the Martial Saint. Since you are now a high-ranking member of the Flying Fish Guard, if you ever discover the whereabouts of the Martial Saint, could you also inform my Qiao family?"

Even though the Great Yan Imperial Court is in disarray, it once ruled over Jiu Province. We should not underestimate its power.

"Mr. Qiao seems to have a high opinion of me," Wei En said apologetically.

"The Martial Saint’s whereabouts are mysterious, and it is beyond my abilities. However…"

With that, his tone changed.

"If Mr. Qiao wishes to cause trouble for the Wuji Association or the Martial Saint, I may not be able to help, but I can introduce you to someone."

"This person sees the Martial Saint as an enemy and has been secretly plotting to kill the Martial Saint for years… Interestingly, this person also has a connection with a member of the Qiao family."

"Stop teasing, hurry up and speak," Qiao Mu said, looking up.

"His name is… Wu Qizheng," Wei En replied.
