downstairs.
Liu Jingwu's room.
A disciple rushed in in a panic, "Master, Master, something terrible has happened!"
Liu Jingwu was contacting Shui Jian when he couldn't help but frown. "What's the matter? Why are you in such a panic?"
The disciple rushed over and said, "I just saw the inn's staff gathering upstairs in the top-tier rooms. I saw them with my own eyes hiding knives in their sleeves. I'm afraid Mr. Lin might be in danger!"
"What?" Liu Jingwu's eyes widened, and he immediately rushed out.
"Master!"
A disciple quickly pulled him back, "Master, please calm down. Today, the shopkeeper surnamed Ao made a casual move that scared Li Qingcang away. His strength is unfathomable! You must not put yourself in danger!"
"Get out of my way!" Liu Jingwu slapped him across the face. "What nonsense are you spouting! Teacher Lin is my master, your grandmaster! If he's in trouble, how can my martial arts association ignore him? I'll risk my life to stand with Mr. Lin!"
After shouting these words, Liu Jingwu immediately turned to leave.
Smack! Smack!
At that moment, a burly old man with a sleazy face walked in from outside, clapping his hands.
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that kid surnamed Lin would raise such a loyal dog like you!" The old man blocked Liu Jingwu's way with a mocking expression.
Liu Jingwu was taken aback, sensing an extremely dangerous aura emanating from the other person. He asked warily, "Who are you?"
"I?"
The old man reached out and pinched his mustache, his eyes darting around as he said mockingly, "I'm paid to do what I'm supposed to do. I came here to kill Lin Yu, but he's not here, so I'll start with you!"
Whoosh!
No sooner had he finished speaking than the old man moved, appearing in front of Liu Jingwu in a flash.
With a fierce claw strike aimed at Liu Jingwu's chest, accompanied by a chilling, sinister wind!
Liu Jingwu instinctively stepped back, but it was too late. With a ripping sound, he felt a chill on his chest as his clothes were torn, leaving five bloody marks on his chest.
Liu Jingwu broke out in a cold sweat instantly.
I was so close to being disemboweled; this person's skill is truly formidable!
"Sir, I have no grudge against you, yet you dare to try to kill me. Don't blame me for that! Humph!"
Liu Jingwu snorted and was about to make a move, but the next moment, he felt a pain in his chest and couldn't help but groan.
He looked down and saw that black smoke was rising from his chest.
"What kind of evil magic do you practice?!"
"Evil magic?"
The old man looked smug and said arrogantly, "Haven't you heard of my name, the Old Monster of Yimeng?"
"What? You're the Yimeng Old Monster, ranked thirty-first on the Popularity Ranking?" Liu Jingwu exclaimed in surprise.
Yimeng Old Monster, a notorious master and powerful figure from Dongshan!
This person practices a heretical dual cultivation technique and frequently targets female cultivators; he is a notorious womanizer in the martial arts world.
He was simply too powerful, and no sect dared to offend him. However, the Martial Arts Association had already listed him as a disgraced martial artist.
They are even gathering evidence to sanction him.
But Liu Jingwu knew in his heart that it would be too difficult to punish this old monster. The other party's strength had already broken through to the peak of the Grandmaster level ten years ago.
The Martial Arts Association has only been developing for ten years and has yet to recruit such a master. They can only handle minor disputes within the martial arts world; they have no power to punish such a strong individual.
Xiao Chongtian admired Liu Jingwu's surprised expression and said with a slight smile, "Now that you know my name, you can go in peace!"
After saying that, he made another move, a Black Tiger Heart Strike!
Bang!
Liu Jingwu was entangled in black energy, which limited his power.
However, he still gritted his teeth and fought back!
Bang bang bang!
After exchanging more than ten blows, Liu Jingwu was no match for Xiao Chongtian and was kicked in the chest, sending him flying backward and crashing onto the table.
Click!
The table shattered with a crash, and Liu Jingwu fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Master!"
Several disciples rushed over and helped him up.
"Old monster, you dare hit my master? I'll fight you to the death! Ah!!"
One of the disciples roared and rushed forward, but as expected, Xiao Chongtian grabbed him by the neck and slowly lifted him up.
"You, uh..."
The disciple struggled incessantly, unable to utter a single word. He was on the verge of suffocating.
Liu Jingwu glared and roared, "Old monster, release my disciple, or I'll fight you to the death!"
"Do you have the ability to fight me?"
Click!
No sooner had he finished speaking than the disciple's neck snapped, and his head slumped limply down.
"My disciple!!"
Liu Jingwu's eyes widened in fury, and a sudden burst of fierce wind erupted from his body!
The next second, he charged madly toward Xiao Chongtian with a move called Pine and Cypress Fist!
Bang bang bang!
The two exchanged no fewer than ten blows!
Although Liu Jingwu's Pine and Cypress Fist was as swift as a rabbit, it was still useless in the face of absolute strength. With a loud bang, a fist struck him directly in the chest, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
That wasn't the end of it. The next second, a whip kick lashed out at Liu Jingwu's chest, sending him flying backward. With a bang, he was embedded in the wall.
Cough cough!
Liu Jingwu coughed up large amounts of blood, seemingly powerless to retaliate.
Xiao Chongtian sneered and strode over again.
"Master!!"
"Let's fight this old monster!"
The disciples, unable to bear seeing their master killed, immediately rushed forward.
Whoosh!
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chongtian grabbed both disciples, one in each hand.
The two were powerless to fight back and struggled desperately. The other disciples also stopped and dared not make any rash moves.
