Chapter 45: Guan Yu beheaded Hua Tuo with warm wine!

"The Heavenly Devil Cult is everywhere. Fang Tailai and Xiang Rongshan are definitely not the only two spies in Wu City!"

"Today's matter would definitely reach the ears of the Sky Demon Cult's higher-ups!"

"Jiang he …"

"From now on, you must be careful!"

Opposite the Rushing Thunder Martial Arts School.

On the second floor of the noodle restaurant.

Sitting by the window, Jiang He stared at the black trench coats coming in and out of the Rumbling Thunder Dojo. Zhou Tong's instructions came to mind, and his good mood after getting rid of Xiang Rongshan and Fang Tailai turned somber again.

"Only by getting rid of the root of the problem can we truly be free of trouble."

"It's a pity that the Sky Demon Cult is so powerful that it's not something I can shake right now!"

Jiang He sighed inwardly.

The Sky Demon Cult had been at odds with the Great Xia for years. Despite being surrounded by the Great Xia's Martial Arts Department (MAD), the military, the Ministry of Education, and various elites of the martial arts world, the Sky Demon Cult had yet to be wiped out. They even had the power to plant spies in various base cities and citadels, which was why their ability was so impressive!

It was said that the Heavenly Demon Cult had seventy-two Earthly Fiend Divine Generals!

These 72 people were at least Martial Dao masters. Some of the stronger Earth Fiend Divine Generals had even reached Grade Eight Martial Dao!

There were also thirty-six Divine Protectors!

It was said that all of them were ninth-grade great grandmasters.

Above the Guardians, there were many Elders, Left and Right Guardians, Hall Masters, and the mysterious Devil Master!

"There is still a long way to go …"

"My strength of over 11 tons is still far from enough."

"If I had the power to split Lan Xing's middle with a single punch, would I still need to be afraid of the Sky Demon Cult? We'll directly attack the mountain gate and hammer them to death one by one … "

Six o 'clock sharp.

The waiter delivered the big plate of chicken on time.

Perhaps because he had gone through a great battle, Jiang He's appetite was excellent today.

There was a huge plate of chicken and two catties of noodles, which Jiang He promptly devoured like a whirlwind.

"Ding!"

"Reasonable diet. Strength + 10kg."

He called the waiter over and said, "Get me a glass of water. I'll take some medicine. Thank you."

The waiter brought them some water.

Jiang He asked curiously when he saw the waiter's long face, "Brother, you don't look too happy…what's wrong?"

"Sigh!"

The waiter sighed, "You may not know this, but the Thunder Rushing Martial Arts School across the street lost a disciple this afternoon. They are preparing to hold a grand funeral for that disciple and have booked 180 tables here."

"Our boss is overjoyed. He promised to give each of us an extra 2,000 yuan bonus this month."

"In the end, just as he was preparing the ingredients for tomorrow's feast … the dojo master and senior brother of the opposite dojo were discovered to be cultists of the Sky Demon Cult, and I heard that they were hacked to death by a lunatic who wielded a blade!"

"Our boss is in a terrible mood. Not only did he lose his bonus, but he also caught me secretly kissing my girlfriend in the toilet. He even fined me 200 yuan!"

Jiang He was dumbstruck.

F * ck, you went to the washroom to kiss your girlfriend during working hours. Who else would be punished if not you?

He took out three Twenty-Four Flavor Dihuang Pills and swallowed them.

"Ding!"

"Use the right medicine. Strength + 10 kg."

Jiang He then took out cloprazine, triflurazine, and flufenazine and ate them.

"Ding!"

"Use the right medicine. Strength + 10 kg."

The waiter stretched his neck and asked curiously, "Sir, what medicine are you taking?"

"Psychotics."

Jiang He spat out those words, before grabbing the blade on a nearby chair and heading for the stairs.

He could sense …The waiter kept staring at his back.

He turned around and glanced at him.

Jiang He could not help curling his lips at the sight of the waiter's shocked and dumbfounded look … Kid, did you guess that I'm the elite who killed Fang Tailai and Xiang Rongshan?

Aren't you shocked?

He went downstairs.

And paid the bill.

Jiang He, however, frowned.

He could sense …Everyone in the restaurant was staring at his back.

There were even two children who were covering their mouths and giggling, with one of them wiping his face with his finger and saying things like 'shameless, butt naked'.

Jiang He did a double take.

Leaning sideways over the restaurant's glass door, he looked at his back …His entire body was paralyzed!

Fang Tailai had sent him flying over eighty meters with a single slap, and he had landed on his back, before sliding over thirty meters on the road.

That was why the back of his shirt was completely torn.

His two buttocks were also exposed to the air.

"So …"

"So, I've been chatting with Zhou Tong with this face, and then swaggering through the streets to eat at this restaurant?"

Jiang He could not wait to find a hole to hide in.

He quickly left the restaurant, clutching his buttocks.

When he looked up, he found a yellow-haired man in a mental patient's suit, slumped outside the Rumble Martial Dojo … it seemed to be Zhuang Shuai, who Xiang Rongshan had sent to the mental hospital to keep an eye on him.

Jiang He's eyes lit up, and he strode up to Zhuang Shuai.

"Jiang … Jiang He?"

Zhuang Shuai's unfocused eyes flashed with hatred when he looked up and saw Jiang He. Still, that hatred soon faded, and his gaze was unfocused and his entire body slouched. Waving him off, he said, "Leave … us brothers have discussed this, and we won't seek revenge … my master and senior brother have betrayed the Great Xia by siding with the Sky Demon Cult. They only have themselves to blame for dying by your hands."

"???"

What nonsense are you spouting here?

Jiang He did not care.

He punched Zhuang Shuai in the face.

Panicking, Zhuang Shuai cried out, "Why did you hit me, Jiang He … I was sent to Anning Asylum to keep an eye on you, but I didn't know that Xiang Rongshan was a member of the Sky Demon Cult … hey, hey, what are you doing?"

"Why are you taking off my clothes?"

Jiang He stripped Zhuang Shuai's clothes in no time at all.

Then, under the stunned gaze of the passersby, he quickly took off his clothes and changed into a psychiatric gown.

She looked at the naked Zhuang Shuai on the ground.

Jianghe Dan cursed.

"hetui!"

"You're a grown man, yet you're not even wearing underwear … Aren't you ashamed?"

Zhuang Shuai: "…"

He covered his private parts and said aggrievedly, "You're still talking about me … Aren't you also not wearing anything?"

"Hehe!"

Jiang He took out a stocking.

He put it on his head and said proudly, "But others can't see my face … Alright, goodbye!"

He suddenly exerted force with his feet!

More than 11 tons of strength instantly burst out from his feet, and his entire body shot out like a cannonball.

The explosive speed of 40 m/s made him disappear from the street like a gust of wind.

…

Meanwhile.

Wu City.

The Martial Arts Department (MAD), inside the captain's office in the law enforcement building.

Zhou Tong was sitting on an office chair, holding a file on Jiang He. He was reading it carefully, and his brow slowly furrowed.

He had gotten the file from the intelligence department.

It contained detailed information about Jiang He from elementary school up to high school.

According to the file, Jiang He was exceedingly talented in martial arts, especially in terms of 'comprehension'!

Others only knew that Jiang He had passed the martial artist assessment in the first semester of his senior year of high school and awakened earth-type powers in the combat assessment, but few knew that Jiang He had already mastered several basic martial arts to Mastery in Refinement in his first year of high school.

In fact …

He had also mastered several extremely profound martial arts.

"If he wasn't poisoned, his future would be limitless!"

At that.

Zhou Tong could not help sighing emotionally.

Still, he was puzzled …The information did not mention that Jiang He had the talent for physique refinement.

He had even fallen gravely ill when his parents passed away and his body never recovered. It was only after he started martial arts training in high school that his condition improved.

Everyone knew that martial arts training required great talent, and without it, one would not even feel qi, let alone cultivate inner strength or True Qi.

Even so, few knew that physique refinement required even greater talent!

It was easy to get started in physique refinement.

As long as one had money and was willing to spend resources.

One's physique and physical strength could be improved no matter what … but it was not possible to achieve anything in physique refinement with money and resources … for example, Xia Houwu, the current top physique refiner of the Great Xia, was born with superhuman strength.

"Jiang He's physical strength now could match some of the weaker rank-four elites."

"Even if he started physique refinement right after he entered the mental hospital, even with the help of Zhang Heng, Wang Mian, and Li Wei … it is not easy to cultivate his physique to this level in two years."

With the ability of the Martial Arts Department (MAD) intelligence department, they naturally found out that Zhang Heng the Blazing Sword had purchased the Black Fire Spirit Root.

Still, that item could only be consumed if one's physical strength reached ten thousand catties.

In other words, despite being poisoned, Jiang He had cultivated his physique to the level of five thousand catties in two years!

In Zhou Tong's mind, the scene of Jiang He consuming the 'Dragon Blood Pellet' appeared once more.

He had personally checked Jiang He's wounds then.

Even with the Dragon Blood Pellet, such wounds would not heal without half a month … and yet, Jiang He was brimming with vigor in seconds after consuming the Dragon Blood Pellet. That did not make sense!

Zhou Tong put down the information.

Rubbing his temples, he sighed. "It seems that the kid … has a huge secret."

Just then.

An enforcer came to report, saying, "Captain, we have apprehended all the apprentices of the Thunderbolt Dojo. We've invited a Superhuman with awakened hypnosis powers to the dojo for interrogation."

"We've also apprehended some of Fang Tailai's friends."

"But …"

Zhou Tong asked, "But what?"

The man in the black windbreaker said, "It's just that Fang Tai has been very close to Grandmaster Liu ever since he stepped into the Grandmaster realm …"

"Liu Feng?"

"Tell Liu Feng to cooperate," Zhou Tong said faintly. "Otherwise, it won't be good if he's labeled as a member of the Sky Demon Cult."

The man in black accepted the order and was about to leave.

Zhou Tong stopped him and asked, "What's the situation on Jiang He's side?"

Zhou Tong did a double take before muttering, "Looks like the kid wasn't lying … he really hasn't recovered."

"Where is he?"

The man in the black trench coat shook his head and said, "I don't know. After he snatched the clothes, he ran away. He ran too fast, and our people couldn't catch up with him. Oh right, Captain Zhou … should we keep this matter under wraps?"

"No need."

"What happened in front of so many people, how can it be sealed? Let the media publish whatever they want. "

Rising to his feet, Zhou Tong said, "You may leave. I'll look for the chief … since Jiang He suspects that the Heavenly Generals of the Sky Demon Cult are hiding in Ningdong Town, there's no harm in taking a look."

…

At the same time.

Jiang He had left the city.

He was wearing a psychiatric gown and carrying a combat blade, sprinting all the way to the ruined city in one breath.

[Ding!]

[Reasonable movement, strength + 10kg.]"Eh?"

Jiang He looked up at the horizon.

It was just past seven.

The sun had not even set in Xibei at seven in September.

"The sun hasn't even set … does that count as a night jog?"

Jiang He blinked.

Stepping into the ruined city, Jiang He headed for the abandoned building.

Torches were lit in the hideout where the Celestial martial artists were.

Wu Xingchen and the others were all there.

They were sitting around, eating dinner.

"Eh?"

"You're back, Mister Jiang?"

Wu Xingchen was the first to see Jiang He, and said, "Come, let's eat."

Jiang He shook his head and said, "I've had dinner … by the way, where's my wine?"

Wu Xingchen handed him the half-empty bottle of wine that Jiang He had drunk and smiled. "It's hot now, so your wine is at normal temperature. I'll help you cool it."

He used Frost Palm to cool Jiang He's wine again.

Jiang He awkwardly accepted the wine and said, "I was going to show off by slaying Hua Tuo with warm wine like Guan Yu did … but I didn't expect that I would end up killing a grandmaster. It's just that the weather is too hot, and I only killed a grandmaster in the time it takes me to eat a big plate of chicken …"

Warm wine …

Slay who?

Wu Xingchen did a double take.

He did not hear the second half of Jiang He's sentence at all.

Still, the other Celestial martial artists heard it, but none of them dared to laugh in Jiang He's presence.

Jiang He was dumbstruck.

What the hell!

Were all the Celestial martial artists that powerful?

I've killed a grandmaster … and none of you are even shocked?

Meanwhile.

News about Jiang He slaying Thunder Hand Fang Tailai on the streets began to spread online. All at once, Wu City and the entire martial world of Western Xia was shaken!

One of the Celestial martial artists received a call from a good friend.

"Yes."

"I'm at the wildlands … something big happened in Wu City?"

"What is it?"

"Could a grandmaster be dead?"

…
