In the world of martial arts, the strong were respected, and the weak were treated like dogs.
There were supreme experts who could split open the sky with a single thought, fill the ocean with a single thought, pluck the stars and capture the moon, and control the universe. With a flick of a finger, they could shatter the void and ascend to the legendary Immortal Realm.
There were martial kings who had surpassed the four realms of Qi, Spirit, Earth, and Sky. They were the true rulers of the world of martial arts. They could carry the sun and moon above their heads, shoulder tens of thousands of mountains, peer into the Heavenly Dao, and live for thousands of years.
There were martial artists of the Qi Spirit Realm who could absorb qi into their bodies and condense it into spirit. They could fight with fierce beasts with a strength of over a thousand kilograms, and they could even release spirit qi to fly.
Country of Xuan, Evergreen County, Eternal Peace City.
Eternal Peace City was a small city in the extreme south of Evergreen County. The city was surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery was beautiful.
Rumble!
In the sky, a thick bolt of lightning flashed across the night sky. Endless water vapor condensed in the sky, and dark clouds covered the sky. It looked like a storm was about to descend.
Pa, pa!
In the east of Eternal Peace City, in the Lin Mansion that occupied thousands of acres of land, a handsome young man was running on the smooth stone road of the Lin Mansion with a beautifully wrapped black stone box in his hand.
"Faster, faster!"
"As long as I give this to Liuliu, she will be willing to marry me and be my wife!"
The young man ran very fast, and he was out of breath. However, the excitement and joy in his eyes could not be concealed.
The young man was called Lin Buzheng, a disciple of the Lin family, one of the four great families of Eternal Peace City. He was deeply in love with the daughter of the Lin family, Lin Liuliu.
Lin Liuliu was beautiful, and her skin was whiter than snow. She was one of the four great beauties of Eternal Peace City.
Her talent in martial arts was even more shocking. At the age of sixteen, she had already cultivated to the second rank of Qi Path. She had no lack of pursuers, and she was the center of attention in the family.
In comparison, Lin Buzheng could not help but be overshadowed.
He was the same age as Lin Liuliu, but he had just started on the path of Martial Dao. His cultivation was only at the second layer of Body Dao, which was an entire realm lower than Lin Liuliu's cultivation. Among all the clan disciples, he was at the bottom.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that even though Lin Liuliu had long since known that Lin Buzheng had feelings for her, she hadn't expressed it in any way. However, she hadn't refused him either. Since the beginning, her relationship with Lin Buzheng had fluctuated between being close and distant.
But today, Lin Liuliu suddenly found Lin Buzheng in private and told him that as long as he was willing to give her the Nine Dragons Qi Nourishing Jade, she would marry Lin Buzheng and become his woman!
Qi Nurturing Jade was a type of divine jade that contained the spirit energy of the heavens and the earth. It was crystalline, translucent, resplendent, and flawless, and contained boundless spirit energy of the heavens and the earth.
If a cultivator were to wear it, they would be able to absorb the spiritual energy contained in the Qi Nurturing Jade to greatly increase the circulation speed of their body's energy and shorten the time needed to break through to the next realm. It was a priceless treasure!
The Nine Dragons Qi Nourishing Jade was the best among the Qi Nourishing Jade.
A Qi Nurturing Jade Vein that was 50 kilometers long could only breed a piece of Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade that was half the size of a palm.
Compared to ordinary Qi Nurturing Jade, the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade contained purer spirit energy of the heavens and the earth. Moreover, it contained a wisp of Heaven and Earth Dao rhyme, which increased the cultivation speed of a cultivator once again.
Not only that, if a cultivator's Martial Dao cultivation was below the Spirit Dao realm, they would be able to cultivate without any restrictions or bottlenecks with the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade!
That was how precious the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade was!
In the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade, the spirit energy of the heavens and the earth vaguely condensed into the shape of nine true dragons. The dragons coiled around and spiraled into the sky, hence the name.
Lin Buzheng's family heirloom was a piece of Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade.
To be precise, it was left to him by his mother whom he had never met.
Every time he saw this Qi Nurturing Jade, Lin Buzheng could not help but think of his mother.
This piece of Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade contained all of Lin Buzheng's love and longing for his mother!
Usually, the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade was kept by Lin Buzheng's father, Lin Shanyue. But tonight, Lin Buzheng got his father drunk, so he had the chance to steal the black box containing the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade.
Apart from the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade, there was also a thin piece of paper in the black box. It was worn and covered with dust. There were mysterious ancient runes on it, which seemed to record something.
According to Lin Buzheng's father, this thin piece of paper was left by Lin Buzheng's mother together with the Qi Nurturing Jade.
That was the reason why Lin Buzheng stole the thin piece of paper and gave it to Lin Liuliu.
From this, it could be seen that Lin Buzheng was infatuated with Lin Liuliu!
"Here we are!"
The next moment, Lin Buzheng stopped. He had finally arrived at the family's martial arts field.
In the east corner of the martial arts field, a tall and curvaceous woman in red stood with her back to Lin Buzheng.
Even without turning around, one could tell that this woman was absolutely gorgeous just by looking at her back!
"Liuliu, I've brought you the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade that you wanted!"
Lin Buzheng walked forward and said softly as he handed over the black box containing the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade.
"Very good."
"Lin Buzheng, you really didn't let me down!"
The woman slowly turned around and took the black box from Lin Buzheng's hand. Her face was beautiful, and her skin was fair and delicate. She was indeed an exceptional beauty, a rare beauty!
"Liuliu, you said that as long as I gave you the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade, you would marry me. Let's go!"
Lin Buzheng smiled shyly. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand in a jerky manner, trying to hold Lin Liuliu's hand.
"There's no hurry."
"Let me see whether this Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade is real or not!"
Lin Liuliu calmly pushed Lin Buzheng's hand away and then opened the black stone box.
Her eyes fell on the worn-out paper at the bottom of the black box, and she immediately frowned.
But the next moment, when she saw a jade pendant the size of half a palm in the middle of the stone box with nine dragons swimming in its depths, a smug smile appeared on her face.
"It seems that you didn't lie to me. This Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade is real! … But I can't go with you. As for marrying you, we'll talk about it when I'm free! "
After saying that, the smile on Lin Liuliu's face disappeared. She looked at Lin Buzheng coldly, as if he was just an insignificant stranger to her.
"Liuliu, you …"
Lin Buzheng's eyes widened, and he looked at Lin Liuliu in disbelief.
No matter how slow he was, he could hear the obvious rejection in Lin Liuliu's cold words.
"Liuliu, didn't we agree that as long as I give you the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade that has been passed down in my family, you'll be my wife?"
"But now, why did you change your mind?"
Lin Buzheng bit his lower lip and stared at the woman in front of him in a daze. The sadness in his eyes was heartbreaking.
"Because you're a good-for-nothing!"
"Do you think you can marry the proud daughter of the Lin family with the Nine Dragons Qi Nurturing Jade as a betrothal gift? In your dreams! "
"The person that Lin Liuliu really likes is not you, but me!"
A voice suddenly came from the corner of the martial arts field.
Along with the cold and cruel voice, a tall, luxuriously dressed man walked out proudly, and his eyes were full of disdain when he looked at Lin Buzheng.
"Lin Tianze, it's you!"
Lin Buzheng took a few steps back, and his eyes were full of shock when he looked at the man.
The Lin family of Yong Ning City was only a small family. The Lin family of Evergreen Prefecture was the main family.
Compared to the branch family, the main family was full of experts, talents, and geniuses.
Lin Tianze was a genius from the main family.
His martial cultivation was higher than Lin Liuliu's, at Stage Three Qi Dao!
Lin Tianze had only been in Yong Ning City for a few days, and he usually lived in seclusion and kept a low profile.
Unexpectedly, he was already entangled with Lin Liuliu in the dark!
As he spoke, Lin Tianze walked to Lin Liuliu's side and hugged her.
Lin Liuliu did not resist, and her beautiful forehead rested on Lin Tianze's chest with a shy expression.
To Lin Buzheng, the scene before him was like a bolt from the blue!
"Lin Liuliu, it turns out that everything you said was false. You've been lying to me all along!"
Lin Buzheng murmured, and a bitter smile appeared on his face. His body was in a trance. After a while, he reached out to Lin Liuliu with a trembling hand, "In that case, return the Nine Dragons Energy Nourishing Jade to me. From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other! "
Lin Buzheng was very clearly aware that it was impossible for Lin Liuliu to marry him at this point.
However, the Nine Dragons Energy Nourishing Jade was the only remembrance that Lin Buzheng's mother left for him and his son. No matter what, it could not be taken away by an outsider!
"Humph, how can I take back something that I've given away?"
Hearing that, Lin Tianze immediately let out a cold laugh, took the black box from Lin Liuliu's hand, and waved it at Lin Buzheng, "Besides, it's a waste of a treasure like the Nine Dragons Energy Nourishing Jade in your hands.
"Why don't you give it to Liuliu and help her with her cultivation? In the future, when she succeeds in martial arts, she will naturally not forget you.
"Alright, that's all. You can leave now, you piece of trash!"
After saying that, Lin Tianze put his arm around Lin Liuliu's slender waist and groped her firm bottom. Without looking at Lin Buzheng, the two turned around and left.
"Asshole!"
"Return the Nine Dragons Energy Nourishing Jade to me!"
Hearing this, Lin Buzheng was infuriated, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He then clenched his fists and charged forward without hesitation!
Lin Liuliu could toy with his feelings, but she would never allow him to take away the Qi Nourishing Jade.
That was because this jade contained all the love and longing he had for his mother!
"Humph, a piece of trash in the second-layer Body Dao dares to attack me?"
Lin Tianze's figure came to a stop, and before he finished his sentence, his figure had disappeared from the spot.
Buzz!
However, Lin Tianze's figure immediately appeared in front of Lin Buzheng. He reached out his right hand and slapped Lin Buzheng's arms off with a simple slap.
BANG!
Following this, a powerful palm force passed through the arms and landed heavily on Lin Buzheng's body, pinning him to the ground of the dojo!
"Ah!"
Lin Buzheng's face was deathly pale as he spat out a mouthful of blood. His internal organs were pierced through by an excruciating pain. Blood gushed out from his body from head to toe. It seemed like he wouldn't be able to survive!
Lin Buzheng's cultivation was only at the second-layer Body Dao, but Lin Tianze's cultivation had reached the third-layer Qi Dao, which was a lot higher than the former's.
In addition to the fact that he had used his full strength, a single slap was enough to kill Lin Buzheng!
"Tianze, it's fine if you just beat him away, but why do you have to be so cruel?"
Lin Liuliu frowned as she stared at Lin Buzheng who was spitting out mouthfuls of blood on the ground, her thoughts unknown.
"Sister Liuliu, you're oversimplifying things."
"Today, we stole something from him, and it's such a precious Nine Dragons Qi Nourishing Jade at that. He'll definitely come after us. Even if he doesn't have the strength to retaliate, if he causes a ruckus, he'll still cause us to lose face within the clan."
"If that's the case, we might as well get rid of him."
"After all, I'm a disciple of the main clan. No matter what, your clan leader and the elders won't dare to touch me. At most, I'll just pay a fine, and this matter will be over. "
Lin Buzheng said coldly. He could feel Lin Buzheng's aura weakening, and a vicious smile appeared on his face, "If you want to blame someone, blame it on your fate! You were born a lowly person, and you're a piece of trash. If you die, then so be it. No one will avenge you! "
As a matter of fact, even if Lin Buzheng did not rush forward, Lin Tianze would not let him go, and let Lin Buzheng live through the night.
Since Lin Buzheng had rushed forward to die, Lin Tianze was more than happy to oblige!
"Cough, cough … jade, my mother's jade …"
Lying on the ground, Lin Buzheng's eyes were lifeless, and his vitality was fading fast. He was still talking about the Qi Nourishing Jade his mother had left him.
"Humph, you've lost your life, and you still want the Nine Dragons Qi Nourishing Jade?"
"Fine, I'll give it to you!"
Lin Tianze heard Lin Buzheng's words, smiled viciously, opened the stone box, and took out the Nine Dragons Qi Nourishing Jade. Then, he picked up the torn paper at the bottom of the box, clamped it between his fingers, operated his genuine Qi, and threw it at Lin Buzheng.
Whoosh!
The paper made a sharp whistling sound in the air. The next moment, it pierced several inches deep into Lin Buzheng's chest. Obviously, it pierced Lin Buzheng's heart!
Boom!
Then, Lin Tianze moved his right hand again. This time, he picked up the black stone box containing the Qi Nourishing Jade and threw it at Lin Buzheng's head.
Crack!
With a muffled sound, Lin Buzheng's skull was smashed by Lin Tianze. Bright red blood gushed out like a fountain.
In an instant, Lin Buzheng's aura became even weaker. He had one foot in the gates of hell. He was definitely going to die!
"Sister Liuliu, let's go."
"Leave this trash here and let him die slowly!"
Sensing Lin Buzheng's aura becoming weaker, Lin Tianze smiled proudly. Then, he took Lin Liuliu's hand and left intimately.
Rumble!
The next moment, a dazzling bolt of lightning flashed across the night sky.
In an instant, a torrential rain poured down.
Lin Buzheng lay on the ground quietly. The blood on his body was diluted by the rainwater. His aura of life gradually weakened, and in the end, it almost disappeared completely.
But at this moment, a strange change occurred!
The mysterious seal characters on the worn-out paper that was inserted into Lin Buzheng's heart seemed to have been summoned. They turned into black snakes and swam on the paper.
Then, they left the paper and swam around Lin Buzheng's head, chest, arms … Everywhere on his body.
Wherever they swam, the wounds on Lin Buzheng's body would heal rapidly and his aura would become stronger.
Before long, the wounds on Lin Buzheng's body were all healed. His aura of life was even stronger than before!
Hiss, hiss!
Finally, the small snakes formed by the black seal characters on Lin Buzheng's body slithered up Lin Buzheng's chest and into his heart as if they had an agreement!
"Ah!"
