Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Chapter 16: Admit Defeat



Chen Yuan killed Wu Dong, who was at the peak of marrow refining, with one strike of his sword, one punch, and one palm. They were all so frightened that they just wanted to escape.

They have been active in the Chimang Mountains for a long time and are familiar with the terrain. As long as they can escape into the forest, they may not be unable to survive.

Bang!

Chen Yuan stamped his foot, creating a deep pit, and chased after him like a galloping horse.

The Fuhu Step is too slow, and it would be better for Chen Yuan to sprint with brute force.

He was extremely fast and chased behind the three bandits in an instant. He swung out the ghost-headed sword, making a sharp sound of breaking the wind, and slashed down at the last bandit!

The bandit turned around in a hurry and raised his knife to resist. The Huanshou knife in his hand was cut in half. The ghost-headed knife continued unabated and passed between the bandit's chest and abdomen.

puff!

The ghost-headed sword was extremely sharp, and a large gash was opened in the bandit's chest and abdomen from top to bottom. Blood spurted out, and his intestines slipped out. The scene was extremely bloody.

thump!

The bandit fell to the ground, and Chen Yuan rushed towards the remaining two bandits without stopping.

Just as he was about to catch up with the two, the two bandits had an internal strife.

One of the short and stocky bandits suddenly grabbed the other man's arm and tried to throw him behind him to stop Chen Yuan and take the opportunity to escape.

But the other bandit was not a fool either. He put his backhand on the arm of the stocky bandit and pulled it with the same force.

As a result, the two men's escape was delayed. Chen Yuan easily caught up with them and killed them one by one with a knife.

The bodies of the two bandits fell limply to the ground. Chen Yuan shook off the blood on the ghost head knife and turned to look at Manager Li:

"now you."

Manager Li stood there with a gloomy expression on his face.

Zhao Shan stared at Chen Yuan with a dull expression and murmured almost like a groan:

"Marrow refining, you are actually a marrow refining warrior..."

Manager Li smiled bitterly:

"After three years of refining, looking at the entire Qi Kingdom, I am a martial arts genius that is rare to see in a century. You can actually avoid exposing the slightest trace. You act so cautiously, and I won't lose unfairly."

Chen Yuan smiled, without any intention of admitting it. He clenched the ghost head knife in his hand and walked slowly towards Manager Li:

"No, you haven't lost yet."

Manager Li shook his head, loosened his left hand, and the Qiu Shui sword in his hand clattered and fell to the ground, with a look of loneliness on his face:

"I surrender."

When Chen Yuan heard this, he stopped and his eyes swept over Manager Li inch by inch:

"In the valley, you are in a desperate situation, but you still refuse to give up. You would rather run away from the battlefield and use your apprentice to block the arrows to fight for a chance of survival. Now that we have not even fought, you are giving up?"

Manager Li smiled bitterly:

"You are not only at the marrow refining level, but also have incredible divine power. My right arm has been crippled, and I am no match for you. If you surrender voluntarily, you can still retain some dignity. Why bother to be like those bandits, struggling to the death, and finally falling?" A dead body?"

Chen Yuan was quite surprised and became less wary:

"You see clearly."

Manager Li sighed:

"For the sake of the master-disciple relationship, I have something to ask of you. Can you help me take care of my wife and daughter?"

"Give me a reason."

Manager Li raised his left hand and took out a thin yellowed ancient book from his arms.

"After I die, they, widowed mothers and orphans, will definitely not be able to keep their huge family property. This is the Six Yang Skill passed down by my family. I will give it to you today. I just ask you to take care of them and find a good family for Ying'er to marry." I'm satisfied..."

At the end of the sentence, his eyes turned red, and his true feelings were beyond words.

Chen Yuan was unmoved, his face was calm, and he just nodded slightly:

"Okay, for the sake of master and apprentice, I will do this for you."

Manager Li smiled happily:

"In this case, I will leave this secret book to you. Although I am dead, the inheritance of the family skills has not been cut off. When I get to Jiuquan, my ancestors will not blame me too much..."

As he spoke, he walked towards Chen Yuan and stretched out his hand, as if to hand him the secret book.

"stop!"

Chen Yuan took a step back, raised the ghost-headed sword, and shouted:

"Take out all the things on your body and put the secret book on the ground, and I will get it myself!"

Manager Li stopped and said with a wry smile:

"I've ended up in this situation, what threat do I still have to you?"

Chen Yuan said coldly:

"Wu Dong is simple-minded and reckless, but you are cunning and cunning. I have to guard against you. If you don't have any evil intentions, just cooperate and I can let you kill yourself. After all, you and I are master and disciple. But if you don't You have good intentions, and you will use your methods now. We will have a fight, but whether your wife and daughter live or die in the future is not my responsibility. "

Manager Li was stunned for a moment, then silently bent down and put the ancient book on the ground.

Then, he retracted his left hand into the cuff, and a wooden box slipped out of the cuff. He flicked his fingers, took off the ring on his left hand, and placed it on the ground.

Finally, he put his left hand into his arms and took out a small jade bottle, a bottle of gold sore medicine, and a bulging coarse cloth bag.

Chen Yuan has been watching his movements closely, ready to take action if something goes wrong.

If he wasn't worried that if he took action directly, Manager Li would destroy the secret book of Six Yang Gong, Chen Yuan would not talk nonsense to him at all.

Seeing that Manager Li was cooperating obediently, he felt relieved, and his hand holding the Ghost Head Sword was no longer so tight.

But just when Manager Li was about to put the jade bottle and the coarse cloth bag on the ground, his hand suddenly shook. The jade bottle fell to the ground, the cork flew out, and a pill rolled out of it.

"No! Barrier Breaking Pill!"

Manager Li exclaimed, and Chen Yuan subconsciously lowered his head and looked over.

The Barrier Breaking Pill is a pill that helps warriors break through the bottleneck of internal strength. It is very famous in the martial arts world. The market price is more than a thousand taels of silver and it is extremely precious.

But at this moment, Chen Yuan's hair suddenly stood up, a chill surged from the bottom of his heart, and a very slight "click" sound rang in his ears.

His pupils shrank, and his upper body suddenly leaned back, almost lying on the ground.

Whoosh!

Just as Chen Yuan used the Iron Bridge, a sleeve arrow shot past his eyes, almost silently, and shot into a big tree, penetrating three points into the wood, and the tail of the arrow trembled slightly.

After Chen Yuan avoided this arrow, another inaudible click sound rang in his ears, and he immediately turned over like a dragon on the ground and rolled to the side in an extremely embarrassed manner.

Whoosh!

Another sleeve arrow shot over, brushing Chen Yuan's throat, deeply immersed in the mud, leaving only a tiny hole.

Chen Yuan flipped over, stood up, raised the ghost-head knife, and threw it forward!

Puff!

Manager Li barely turned his body to avoid the vitals, but was still stabbed in the left shoulder. He staggered back two steps, sat down on the ground, and leaned weakly on a rock.

Chen Yuan stared at him and squeezed out three words from his teeth:

"You are looking for death!"

Manager Li's face was pale, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his hands fell weakly.

Clang!

The ghost-head knife fell to the ground, and blood flowed out from the wound on his left shoulder, dripping from his fingertips, splashing a shocking blood flower.

It turned out that when the elixir rolled out of the jade bottle just now, Chen Yuan's attention was attracted. Manager Li took this opportunity, regardless of his injuries, and suddenly raised his injured right arm and shot two sleeve arrows at Chen Yuan one after another, but he narrowly avoided them.

But this action also consumed all his strength. Facing the ghost-head knife thrown by Chen Yuan with all his strength, he was unable to dodge and ended up seriously injured.

Manager Li leaned on the rocks, his face as pale as paper, and smiled bitterly:

"I am willing to admit defeat, you win."

Chen Yuan picked up the ghost-head knife, walked forward, his expression cold:

"If you really want to admit defeat, you won't make another move."

Manager Li shook his head:

"As long as the means have not been exhausted, it is not considered a loss. Only when I reach the end of my rope will I accept my fate."

Chen Yuan was stunned, then nodded:

"You are right. Only when I reach the end of my rope will I accept my fate. I have learned my lesson."

Manager Li was very surprised and sighed:

"After experiencing life and death, he was not angry at all. Such a good disciple was missed by me. What a pity, what a pity..."

Chen Yuan smiled coldly and raised his knife to chop down.

Manager Li faced the blade, but his face showed no fear:

"Wait! Don't you want the real Six Yang Gong?"

Chen Yuan paused, the blade stopped at Manager Li's neck, and a line of blood slowly emerged.

"Is this Six Yang Gong fake?"

Manager Li chuckled:

"What do you think?"

Chen Yuan frowned slightly, put away the knife, turned around, picked up the ancient book from the ground, opened it, and found that it was blank, with nothing written inside.

He threw the ancient book on the ground and picked up the pill that rolled out:

"Is this barrier-breaking pill also fake?"

Manager Li laughed:

"Of course, if there really was a barrier-breaking pill, I would have taken it long ago. Why would I keep it until now? This is just the most common detoxification pill."

Chen Yuan put the pill back into the jade bottle, came to Manager Li, and put the knife on his neck:

"Where is the real Six Yang Gong?"

With the blade approaching, Manager Li laughed instead:

"Okay, I'll tell you now..."

Then, he lowered his voice, said a few words, and took out a copper key from his arms with difficulty and handed it over.

Chen Yuan took the key, his eyes flashed twice, but he put the knife back:

"You are quite straightforward."

Manager Li smiled:

"I will accept the loss."

Chen Yuan said:

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill your wife and daughter to vent my anger?"

Manager Li smiled:

"I believe you are not the kind of person who will take revenge for a slight grievance. When you and I fight, life and death are up to fate. Of course, I will use all means, but they have no grudges against you. And you are so cautious, you should not take the risk of killing people just to vent your anger, right?"
