Black Wolf's punch was extremely powerful, his blood and qi erupting like a beast unleashed from its cage, which was terrifying.
Magu was terrified.
He didn't expect Black Wolf to act so suddenly.
He already had a shoulder injury that hadn't fully healed.
Faced with Black Wolf's powerful punch, he dared not resist at all, and could only stomp his foot and retreat rapidly to avoid the punch.
boom!
Black Bear's punch missed its mark, but the force of the blow caused Xiao Tian and the others to change their expressions drastically and retreat repeatedly.
"You've got something!"
Black Wolf's eyes lit up when he saw that Mag had actually dodged his almost sneak attack.
However, now that he has taken action, he is not about to let it go so easily.
Seeing Magu retreat, he pressed his advantage, took a step forward, and threw another punch at Magu's chest.
Now, Magu had nowhere left to retreat, because behind him was the tightly closed gate of the house.
Seeing that Black Wolf's fist was already in front of him, Magu gritted his teeth and had no choice but to raise his uninjured right hand to take the punch head-on.
At that moment, Magu felt deep regret.
He had left in a hurry and hadn't brought his battle sword with him; otherwise, he wouldn't be in such a passive position.
Black Wolf's strength far surpasses his; even if he manages to block this punch, his right hand will likely be crippled.
Seeing that Magoo dared to raise his palm to meet his fist, a cruel glint appeared in Black Wolf's eyes.
Just as he was about to unleash his power and smash his arm to pieces with a single punch, a piercing whistling sound suddenly rang in his ears.
At the same time, a strong sense of crisis rose in his heart, causing a sharp pain in the back of his head.
Black Wolf was shocked and could no longer care about Magu. He quickly withdrew his fist, twisted his body, and threw a punch behind him.
Bang!
Dust filled the air as a fist-sized rock was shattered by Black Wolf's punch.
The pebbles shot out rapidly in all directions, and several unlucky members of the Black Wolf Gang were accidentally hit, their heads bleeding profusely and screaming in pain.
However, Black Wolf didn't care about any of that. Although he smashed the rock that attacked him with one punch, his arm was also shaking violently, his fist was sore and bleeding.
The power contained in this stone was astonishing, no less than the power of his full-force punch!
"Who goes there!"
Black Wolf was greatly alarmed and looked toward the tree where Lu Qing was hiding.
"Heh, I never expected to run into scum from the Black Wolf Gang here. What a pleasant surprise."
A sigh of admiration rang out, and a figure appeared atop the tree.
"Brother Lu Qing?!"
Upon hearing the voice, Magu, who had survived the ordeal, looked up at the tree in surprise.
"Young Master Lu?!"
Xiao Tian and the others were equally astonished to see the person appear in the tree.
"Brother Lu Qing, young master Lu?"
Hearing Magu and the others' exclamations, Black Wolf narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Qing in the tree.
When he saw Lu Qing's face, he couldn't help but feel a jolt in his heart.
There was no way around it; Lu Qing's face was just too young, he looked like a teenager no matter how you looked at him.
But how could a teenager throw out such a terrifying rock?
Black Wolf tried hard to sense Lu Qing's strength, but facing Lu Qing who had concealed his blood and qi, he could not discern his true strength at all.
The other Black Wolf Gang members also stirred up a commotion.
No one expected that the one who ambushed their gang leader would be such a young boy.
Black Wolf, filled with suspicion and uncertainty, shouted directly, "Boy, who are you?"
“An enemy.” Standing on the tree, Lu Qing said calmly, “Didn’t you want to find the person who destroyed Happy Village? That was me.”
Upon hearing this, the Black Wolf Gang members stirred again.
"It was you?" Black Wolf's eyes narrowed. "What grudge has my Black Wolf Gang ever against you that you would resort to such cruelty, slaughtering the entire stronghold? Don't you think your methods are a bit too ruthless?"
"Ruthless methods?" Lu Qing smiled upon hearing this. "It seems that your Black Wolf Gang truly has no self-awareness regarding the evil deeds you have committed."
"Fine, what's the point of reasoning with scum like you? You're all just a bunch of beasts in human skin anyway."
"What did you say, kid?!"
Hearing Lu Qing's arrogant words, the Black Wolf Gang members couldn't hold back any longer.
They, who were used to running rampant in the county town, had never been so openly humiliated.
Immediately, someone skilled in using hidden weapons raised their hand and shot a dart at Lu Qing: "Kid, get down here!"
The dart flew swiftly and rapidly, arriving in front of Lu Qing in the blink of an eye, heading straight for his head.
Lu Qing remained expressionless, and with a slight lift of his finger, he caught the dart.
"Here you go!"
The next moment, a white light flashed, and before anyone could see what happened, a scream rang out.
When they looked back, the Black Wolf Gang member who had thrown the dart was already lying on the ground.
A large hole was torn in his throat, and blood was flowing out continuously. On the ground next to him was a dart, which, judging from its appearance, was the same one he had thrown at Lu Qing earlier.
"Eighth Master!"
"Eighth Brother!"
"Eighth Brother!"
The Black Wolf Gang members shouted repeatedly.
But with his throat ripped open and trachea torn, the Eighth Master was clearly no longer able to respond to their calls.
His eyes were filled with terror, and his throat made gurgling noises, but he couldn't make a sound.
After struggling for a while, its eyes glazed over, its legs stretched out, and it died completely.
"Eighth Master!"
The members of the Black Wolf Gang were all shocked to see their eighth leader dead.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Lu Qing was now filled with fear.
The Eighth Master is a martial artist who has reached the Great Perfection of Qi and Blood Realm. His skill with hidden weapons is among the best in the county.
Unexpectedly, his attempt to ambush the boy failed, and he was killed by his own throwing knives instead.
How could this young man kill a martial arts master who had reached the peak of Qi and Blood with a single casual strike?
"Eighth Brother!"
Black Wolf was equally grief-stricken and indignant upon seeing his sworn brother die.
He glared at Lu Qing and said, "You bastard, you're ruthless indeed! If I don't kill you today, I, Black Wolf, swear I'm not human!"
“Scum like you don’t deserve to be human. You’re nothing but beasts, even worse than pigs and dogs.”
Lu Qing spoke in a calm tone, but his words were extremely sharp.
"Very well! I, Black Wolf, swear here and now that if I don't skin you alive, cut off your limbs, hang you up and expose you to the scorching sun for seven days, and then capture all your family and friends and torture them to death to appease the spirits of my Black Wolf Gang's fallen brothers, I will not be worthy of being called a human being!"
Black Wolf flew into a rage, his eyes turning bloodshot, and stared at Lu Qing, gritting his teeth as he spoke each word.
The way it looked like it was about to devour someone made Magu and the others' hearts pound with fear.
They knew that Black Wolf was on the verge of going insane.
Xiao Tian and the others, in particular, felt their bodies trembling.
Because they all knew that Black Wolf truly meant what he said.
In the county town, everyone knows that Black Wolf is a madman who sometimes acts recklessly.
Consequently, the entire Black Wolf Gang's modus operandi has become quite insane.
Being vindictive and ruthless are practically their defining characteristics.
In the western part of the city, few people are willing to clash with them unless absolutely necessary.
Because if you provoke them, you may face a frenzied attack.
This explains why, despite not being the strongest, the Black Wolf Gang had the reputation of being the leader of the three major gangs in the west of the city.
Young Master Lu has provoked these lunatics so much that a deadly battle is inevitable.
"Yes, Chief, capture this kid, torture him to death, and avenge Eighth and Ninth Masters!"
"We must force him to reveal where his family is, and arrest them all!"
Hearing the words of help, the members of the Black Wolf Gang regained their courage and shouted wildly.
The fear he had felt towards Lu Qing just now vanished completely.
Despite the frenzied state of the Black Wolf Gang members, Lu Qing's expression remained unchanged.
He scoffed, "Is this all the Black Wolf Gang uses to intimidate others? I remember that Heart-Picking Wolf said the same few words, and then I chopped his head off."
"Good, very good!"
Black Wolf was so angry he could barely speak. He no longer cared what grudge Lu Qing had against their Black Wolf Gang, because it was pointless now.
At this moment, all he wanted was to capture Lu Qing immediately and torture him to death with his own hands.
"Shoot him down!"
At his command, the Black Wolf Gang members all took action.
Those who knew how to use hidden weapons launched them, those skilled in archery drew their bows and shot arrows, and even those who didn't know how to use hidden weapons picked up stones and dirt from the ground and threw them at Lu Qing with all their might.
In an instant, all sorts of hidden weapons and arrows rained down on Lu Qing in the tree.
Although the Black Wolf Gang members had witnessed Lu Qing's hidden weapon skills, they did not believe that he could stand steadily on the tree in the face of so many attacks.
Sure enough, despite the barrage of hidden weapons, Lu Qing didn't try to withstand them head-on. He simply shrank back and disappeared above the treetop.
When it reappeared, it was already under the tree, having avoided all the hidden weapons.
But there were already people waiting under the tree.
"die!"
Black Wolf had long anticipated that his men's hidden weapon attacks would be ineffective against Lu Qing.
His only goal was to force him down from the tree.
Seeing Lu Qing fall from the tree, Black Wolf was overjoyed. Without thinking, he took advantage of Lu Qing's feet not yet touching the ground and his body being in mid-air with no way to gain leverage, and suddenly threw a punch.
With a punch, Black Wolf's eyes were filled with cruelty.
If this punch lands, even if this kid is a martial artist at the Bone and Tendon Realm, all his bones will be broken. At best, he will be seriously injured; at worst, he will explode and die!
Despite the astonishing force of the punch, Lu Qing remained unfazed.
He stretched out his hands and gently placed them on Black Wolf's arms. Then, with a pull and a twist, using the force of the punch, he floated backward and landed steadily on the ground.
How could that be!
Seeing Lu Qing so easily and unharmed as he took the punch he had thrown with all his might, Black Wolf's eyes widened, revealing an expression of disbelief.
He couldn't believe that his punch, delivered with such perfect timing and all his might, had been so easily neutralized by Lu Qing.
Most importantly, even after exchanging blows, he still couldn't discern his opponent's skill level.
Lu Qing's vital energy was completely contained within his body, making it impossible for Lu Qing to see through his true nature.
What kind of monster is this kid?
"Skilled in hand-to-hand combat?"
Lu Qing looked at the black wolf with an amused expression in his eyes.
"Perfect timing. I've recently become interested in martial arts, so I'll use you as a practice subject."
"You arrogant brat!"
Upon hearing this, Black Wolf's mood exploded once again.
He discovered that this kid had a truly venomous tongue; every word he uttered was utterly insulting.
If he can't kill him today, he'll probably be so angry every time he thinks about it in the future that he'll explode with rage.
With a flick of his arms, the black wolf pounced on Lu Qing once more.
He simply couldn't believe that this young man, at such a young age, could have a higher level of martial arts than him, who had cultivated for decades. Such a person would never appear in this remote place.
The black wolf pounced with tremendous force and agility, its hands forming claws, like a giant wolf king of the grasslands, rushing towards its prey.
It was his signature move, the Black Wolf Fist.
He passed on this unique skill to a remarkable person from the Western Frontier.
It was created by that extraordinary person who lived on the grasslands of western Xinjiang for decades and observed the living habits of the giant wolf, the overlord of the grasslands. It is extremely domineering and ruthless.
When one reaches the pinnacle of skill, one can enter the realm of internal organs, which countless martial artists aspire to.
When Black Wolf was young, he met that extraordinary person and, by chance, learned of the extraordinary person's abilities.
He then devised a cunning plan, using sweet words and clever talk to gain the trust of the extraordinary man, and became his disciple, his only student.
After becoming the disciple of the extraordinary man, Black Wolf served him faithfully for three years, finally receiving the extraordinary man's true teachings and being taught martial arts.
Having mastered the true teachings, Black Wolf immediately revealed his true nature.
Having long grown tired of serving strange people, he secretly added a rare poison he had painstakingly obtained to his lunch one day.
The extraordinary man, caught off guard, was immediately poisoned, his internal organs were severely damaged, and his strength was reduced to almost nothing.
After the strange man was poisoned, Black Wolf immediately launched a sneak attack, crippling his limbs. Finally, after torturing him in every way, he managed to sever the strange man's head with a single stroke after cursing him for three days.
After killing the extraordinary man, Black Wolf immediately took all his possessions and fled far away.
Finally, he settled in the remote Cang County, and with the help of the secret manual of elixirs left behind by the extraordinary person, he practiced martial arts diligently, and eventually his cultivation level greatly increased, and he founded the Black Wolf Gang.
In the process of establishing the Black Wolf Gang, Black Wolf relied on the Black Wolf Fist to carve out a niche for himself, establish a firm foothold in the western part of the county town, and thrive.
Therefore, Black Wolf was full of confidence in his signature skill.
He believed that even someone at the same level of mastery of the Bone and Tendon Realm would be no match for his Black Wolf Fist, which he had been practicing for decades!
With agile and unpredictable steps, Black Wolf arrived in front of Lu Qing in the blink of an eye.
Its claws, like a wolf king hunting its prey, traced a strange trajectory as it lunged towards Lu Qing's throat.
"Good timing!"
Despite the menacing black wolf, Lu Qing's eyes remained calm.
Instead of retreating, he advanced, his blood and qi erupting in an instant. The force of his energy caused the air around him to explode. He lowered his shoulders, clenched his fist, and stomped his foot, shaking the entire ground. His right fist, like a thunderbolt, shot out at lightning speed, heading straight for the black wolf's heart.
Fierce Tiger Fist, Fierce Tiger Gouges Out the Heart!
roar!
Lu Qing's punch was more than ten times stronger than Black Wolf's.
Amidst the surging air currents, a faint tiger's roar resounded, accompanied by the tremors beneath our feet, shaking the hearts of everyone present.
"What?!"
Lu Qing's outburst was incredibly powerful, completely exceeding Black Wolf's expectations.
Faced with Lu Qing's extremely fast and extremely fierce punch, he had no time to react at all.
Before the claws even touched Lu Qing's throat, a sharp pain shot through his heart, and he couldn't stop spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He flew backward and crashed into the large tree where Lu Qing had been standing, shaking down countless leaves.
There was a hollow space in his chest, running from front to back.
