36th Street is all red.
He almost blurted out, "Moreover, this person is quite young, and looks like he's about to break through to the sixth rank. This person can definitely be considered one of the most talented geniuses in the world! Moreover, his swordsmanship is unpredictable, and his treasured sword is exceptionally sharp, seemingly possessing a sword spirit. His cultivation method hasn't been revealed yet. I must report this person immediately. How could I have overlooked such a person? I must investigate more thoroughly in the future; I can't be stingy with money!"
The other houses on the street all had their doors tightly shut. They were used to the bloodshed and violence every night, but tonight's conflict was particularly frightening! Some wealthy families were also well-informed and, upon learning of the incident, quickly notified their families not to go out or get involved.
The county government gates were tightly shut. Inside the police station, the head constable's face was ashen. He clenched and unclenched his fist repeatedly, slamming it hard against the ground. He was seething with anger. 'The time wasn't right, the magistrate hadn't arrived—what a pity! Instead, he took the opportunity to sacrifice everyone here. Could I break through to the sixth rank then? Damn it!'
At this moment, He Chen wielded the Gentleman's Blade, his mind and hands never ceasing. Each strike of the Gentleman's Blade produced twenty-five slashes, unleashing a rain of blades that filled the sky. After the rain of blades, a downpour of blood followed, soaking the streets. That night, He Chen, blade in hand, slaughtered his way from the middle of the street to the other, killing the Lian family, the Tian family, the Fierce Tiger Gang, and finally the Flying Eagle Gang. Wherever there was still someone with malicious intent, he would strike with his blade, creating a dazzling display of sword shadows, so beautiful it was almost unbearable to look at. After the flashes of light, a bloodbath followed!
The fighting continued until dawn. Standing in the Flying Eagle Gang's main hall, Gui San was already waiting. Although he roughly knew that his new master might kill the Flying Eagle Gang leader, at this moment, witnessing his master fight from beginning to end, with his unparalleled strength, strange swordsmanship, and inexhaustible stamina, he felt nothing but awe.
Moreover, bound by the contract, he would never dare to betray it again! So he stepped forward and inquired, "Sir, please rest for now. I will arrange for someone to handle the rest for you immediately. From today onwards, how do you intend to govern Huangtu County?"
He Chen sat down with an air of nonchalance, saying, "Those I don't want to see tonight, I don't want to see in Huangtu County again. In the future, collect ginseng and other spiritual fruits for me. If you find any good iron or precious stones for forging weapons, collect them as well, or notify me as soon as possible. Also, I've dealt with the criminals in the north corner. Take good care of the children inside and have a doctor treat them."
Gui San immediately replied, "Yes, sir," and then continued...
"My lord, I have already arranged for you to wash up and have a bedroom to rest in. Please go and wash up first; the food and drink will be served shortly. As for other valuables and elixirs, I will prepare an inventory for you after I have packed them away."
He Chen nodded. With the life-and-death contract in hand, he could control the life and death of the person at any time, so he wasn't afraid of them running away. Even if they did run away, it wouldn't matter; they would just live a few more days.
After leading He Chen to a luxurious room, Gui San left to attend to other matters. This room was truly extravagant, so large, with a king-size bed and a large bathtub. It was incredibly expensive. Upon arriving at the washroom, a blazing fire was set on one side, completely destroying all his clothes. Then, he took a thorough and enjoyable bath.
The living room was quickly cleaned up, and when He Chen returned, a delicious meal was laid out, including roast pig and roast duck! After scanning the room with his divine sense, He Chen began to eat heartily, his mouth seemingly filled with iron teeth and bronze teeth, chewing very quickly.
At that moment, the door opened and a tall woman slowly entered. She had a small bow and arrow at her waist and was dressed in a black outfit that could not hide her beauty. She did not even glance at He Chen and showed no dissatisfaction.
She bowed and said, "Bi Tianyan of the Flying Eagle Gang apologizes to you, sir!" She was the one who had fired that spectacular arrow at He Chen earlier!
After finishing his meal, He Chen smiled and said, "I wonder how I can apologize?"
Bi Tianyan looked directly at He Chen with a carefree expression and said, "I'll leave it to you, sir."
He Chen casually said, "Why don't you warm my bed?" Then he waved his hand, ignoring her, and signaled that Bi Tianyan could leave.
Mentally checking his kill points, he'd reaped a considerable harvest this midnight visit—exactly a few kill points—but it still wasn't enough. The next level of the Titanium-grade Divine Bell Shield required 100,000 kill points, which would be a waste to exchange for a spatial ring! He'd spend 3,000 points to upgrade the Thunderfire Heart Technique. With the Thunderfire Heart Technique at level 1000, his cultivation level had risen to sixth rank, and his body had undergone a tremendous transformation.
He Chen felt his body gradually becoming jade-like after being tempered by thunder and fire, becoming more and more like glass!
Moreover, the spiritual energy within the body can leave and manifest as wind, fire, thunder, and lightning. Of course, He Chen, due to the nature of his cultivation method, can manifest as lightning and flames. Just imagine a sky full of thunder and a sea of fire—it's truly something to look forward to trying!
Moreover, spiritual energy can emanate from the blade, creating a powerful and invisible attack.
He then spent another 7,500 points upgrading his swordsmanship, achieving a hundred cuts with a single strike. At this moment, it felt as if he had practiced for tens of thousands of years, his entire body becoming as hard as steel, incomparably solid, and completely under his control.
During the drill, a single slash cut down a hundred demonic beasts, their heads rolling around in a spectacular display!
After that, upgrading the skill requires 100 points per level, which is really expensive! Looking at my limited killing points, I don't want to add any more for now!

He Chen entered the room, intending to rest for a while. He noticed someone was already inside; the air was pleasantly fragrant, and the person's eyes were clear, direct, and carefree. Without further hesitation, he felt the warm, spring-like fragrance envelop him.
Then I spent the whole morning tossing and turning! After that, I fell into a deep sleep!
In the afternoon, while eating in the living room, his family sat shyly, heads down, eating quietly, presumably also hungry. Their usual directness and carefree attitude were completely absent. After finishing their meal, He Chen took out a Cloud Piercing Arrow he had exchanged and handed it to Bi Yunyan, saying, 'If there's any danger, just crush it.'
Bi Yunyan obediently accepted the Cloud Piercing Arrow. It was cool to the touch, yet contained immense power, making it incredibly precious. With just one Cloud Piercing Arrow, He Chen could quickly reach his side. The artifact was mysterious, but a bit pricey. He hadn't been willing to exchange for it before, but now, he'd exchange for three more!
Looking at the remaining points, He Chen focused on upgrading his swordsmanship, aiming for two hundred strikes per slash. Immersed in his swordsmanship training, his entire body was rapidly strengthening, his cells quickly absorbing the spiritual energy. He Chen consumed all the ginseng he had brought, tempering his entire body. He felt as if he could fight for ten days and ten nights without tiring!
