"Is this person … still Xiao Liuyi?"
Among the Tri-Mountain Sect captives, a young girl in her twenties widened her eyes.
Her hair was tied in two braids, and her hands were tied behind her back. The hair on her forehead was slightly messy, and below her was a pair of big eyes that seemed to be able to speak. At this moment, they were filled with uncertainty.
Looking at the figure who had slapped the Tri-Mountain Sect disciples, she could not associate him with the little brat who followed her around, calling her sister, and occasionally begging for candy.
She was stunned, but Chung Shen-soo did not stop.
Otherwise, he would feel disgusted if these Tri-Mountain Sect disciples threatened Xun Liuyi's friends and masters, even though he did not take it seriously.
He channeled his inner force into his legs, and with a slight movement, he appeared in front of a Tri-Mountain Sect disciple and struck his chest with his palm.
The unlucky disciple's chest made a bone-cracking sound, and he flew backward as if he had been hit by a carriage.
"This guy is difficult to deal with. Let's attack him together!"
The Tri-Mountain Sect was actually a small sect. There was not a single martial artist on the Ranking List of Young Masters in the sect, and these disciples were even worse than third-rate martial artists.
Seeing Zhong Shenxiu display his invincible might and defeat two disciples in two moves, she was simply on par with the Elders and Sect Masters of the sect. They all let out strange cries and pulled out their weapons, as if they wanted to surround and attack, but also as if they wanted to escape.
However, Chung Shen-soo could not be bothered with them. He dealt with each of them with a palm strike.
The last one with a sinister look seemed to have thought of something. He pulled out his saber and was about to place it on the neck of the young girl in braids, as if he wanted to take her hostage.
"You've finally become a little smarter."
Chung Shen-soo was faster than him. He reached out and grabbed the saber in his hand.
"Spare me, hero!"
The triangular-eyed man was startled and dropped to his knees.
Disciples of small sects could not be underestimated. That was how they behaved.
On the other hand, an old man with a goatee who had been captured by the side murmured in disbelief, "Medicinal Fragrance Palm, the fifth stage of the Medicinal Sand Palm? That's impossible … "
Chung Shen-soo smiled and grabbed the ropes that bound them. With a slight tug, the ropes broke and fell to the ground.
The girl with the braids rubbed her numb shoulders and arms as she looked at Chung Shen-soo curiously. "Xiao Liuyi, how did you suddenly become so powerful?"
"Hong Yao 'er? Xiao Liuyi? Call him Junior Brother Xun! "
The old man with the goatee glared at her and reprimanded her. He casually picked up his weapon and looked at the disciples of the Three Mountains Sect lying on the ground. A vicious look appeared on his face, and with a casual swing of his blade, he killed an unconscious disciple of the Three Mountains Sect.
As he made his move, the rest of the Mountain Medicine Gang captives followed suit.
Chung Shen-soo watched the scene unfold, but he didn't care much.
In the last years of the Great Wu Dynasty, the sects of the world were divided. Little Mountain City was the territory of the Mountain Medicine Gang, but it was breached by the Three Mountains Sect. The Mountain Medicine Gang captives had countless relatives, disciples, and teachers who died in the hands of the Three Mountains Sect. The grudge between the two sides was as deep as the ocean, and it would be a miracle if it could be resolved.
The face of the triangular-eyed man paled at this sight. He hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Sirs of the Mountain Medicine Gang, this lowly one is only following orders. My hands are definitely not stained with the blood of the Mountain Medicine Gang …"
"Not bad. What's your name?"
Chung Shen-soo asked in amusement.
"This lowly one is Wu Tieyi. Sir, please spare this lowly one's life. This lowly one will be at your beck and call, even if it means treading on fire! This lowly one knows a thing or two about the martial arts of the Three Mountains Sect … "
This Wu Tieyi was willing to sell anything in exchange for his life.
If news of him revealing the secrets of the Three Mountains Sect were to spread, he would no longer be able to continue living in the pugilistic world. He would definitely be hunted down by the Three Mountains Sect.
From the looks of it, he was quite sincere.
"Fine, I'll spare your life then."
Chung Shen-soo made his decision. The goateed old man and Hong Yao 'er looked at him with a matter-of-fact look on their faces.
Putting aside the fact that Xun Liuyi had just saved them, even in the pugilistic world, the strong reigned supreme.
Chung Shen-soo's martial arts were the highest here, so he had the final say!
By this time, the Mountain Medicine Gang captives had also finished venting their anger. There were a total of six people gathered together, and the goateed old man, Wei Baishu, was their leader.
The braided young lady was Wei Baishu's daughter, Wei Hongyao, who was in his fifties. The rest of the captives were mostly his relatives and friends.
After all, they were running for their lives, so it was only natural for those who were close to each other to gather together.
"Brother Xun, what do you think we should do next?"
Wei Baishu watched as Chung Shen-soo dealt with Wu Tieyi, but he didn't interrupt him. Only after Wu Tieyi was done did he step forward politely to discuss the matter.
In the past, Xun Liuyi was just a pawn at the bottom of the Mountain Medicine Gang, and it would have been difficult for him to get a middle-ranking member like Wei Baishu to treat him nicely. But now, everything was different.
"I'm just the most ordinary disciple in the gang, so I naturally have to ask Chief Wei to make the decision."
Chung Shen-soo said modestly.
The Mountain Medicine Gang had a chief and three elders, but it seemed like they were all dead.
Next, it was time for the stewards and attendants of the various chambers.
Wei Baishu was in charge of the Medicine Hall, so he didn't have to go deep into the mountains and forests like the herbalists of the Herb-Gathering Hall. He could be considered to have lived a comfortable life. But now, he was looking in the direction of Little Mountain City, his eyes red. "Although our Mountain Medicine Gang is small, we've been established for fifty years. This old man grew up there. If it wasn't for the fact that we were in a life-and-death situation, who would be willing to leave our hometown?"
His words seemed to resonate with everyone, and their eyes reddened.
Wei Baishu's voice was choked with emotion. Suddenly, he looked at Chung Shen-soo. "Liuyi, have you already cultivated the Medicinal Sand Palm to the fifth level?"
Chung Shen-soo nodded lightly.
Wei Baishu was instantly overjoyed. "To be able to cultivate the Medicinal Sand Palm to the fifth level, you'd be considered an expert in Jianghu. Our chief wasn't at this level before. Let's go to the nearby An Mountain City and temporarily take shelter. Who knows, there might be a day when we'll take revenge on the Three Mountains Sect!"
It seemed like he had high hopes for Chung Shen-soo, but Chung Shen-soo watched coldly from the side. He realized that this old man was still giving the others an illusory hope, so that the group wouldn't suddenly fall apart.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. As expected of a sly old fox.
If the people's hearts fell apart, it would be difficult to lead the group.
Now that everyone had hope in their hearts, they moved quickly. Very quickly, they packed up the bags that had been taken by the Three Mountains Sect disciples, and the group quickly fled.
Chung Shen-soo did not pass on this responsibility, and led the way at the very front.
In reality, he didn't really care whether he stayed in the Mountain Medicine Gang or not.
But since he ran into them, and he had nowhere to go, he might as well stay with them for now.
Moreover, he also had an idea. Ever since he saw a real martial arts expert last night, he became interested in the martial arts of this world. He wanted to find a real martial arts manual to read.
Although the Mountain Medicine Gang didn't have any good martial arts, there should be martial arts that were better than the Medicinal Sand Palm!
Taking advantage of the fact that the Mountain Medicine Gang was broken and its members were dead, it was also a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
