Chapter Thirty-Three: Murder and Robbery

  Unfortunately, as Shi Long himself said, having been the number one master in Yangzhou City for decades, he was used to being unruly and would not submit to anyone. For someone like Shi Long who had never submitted to anyone for decades, surrendering to a young man under twenty was not his style. Although this young man's martial arts skills might be even higher than his own. But as a Jianghu person, one can be killed but not humiliated. From the moment he entered Jianghu, Shi Long had such an awareness.

  What's most important is that Shi Long isn't willing to give up. After obtaining the "Longevity Secret", Shi Long devoted himself to studying it, forgetting to sleep and eat, putting in a tremendous amount of effort. Now, with just a few casual words from Wang Yu, he wants Shi Long to abandon the fruits of his labor over the past few years? That's not going to be easy! Shi Long has his own pride too.

  It's better to strike first and gain the upper hand. Now, he could only take advantage of the young master's inexperience in battle. Take him by surprise. With this thought, Shi Long's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly sprang up from his seat, traversing several meters in an instant, appearing before Wang Yu in the blink of an eye. His palms pushed forward, unleashing a surge of energy that violently swept towards Wang Yu.

  Living up to his reputation as an old veteran, he was born with his strongest move "Push Mountain Hand", leaving no room for himself and no room for his opponent.

  Wang Yu's eyes gleamed with a fierce light, and he shook his head in his spare time, sighing: "Master Shi, you made the most wrong choice. Unfortunately, one step went wrong, and there was no chance to regret it."

  Wang Yu's figure flashed, and he activated the Tianmo atmosphere. At this moment, Shi Long only felt that Wang Yu had suddenly disappeared from his senses. It wasn't just that he couldn't see Wang Yu anymore, but even with Shi Long's top-notch martial artist perception, he couldn't sense him at all.

  Shi Long immediately knew something was wrong, in a critical moment, Shi Long showed the extraordinary skill of Yangzhou's number one master. Instead of retreating, he advanced forward, his hands that were originally going to attack Wang Yu now crossed over his chest, protecting his vital points.

  Unfortunately, it still didn't block Wang Yu's attack.

  Wang Yu's long palm struck out in an instant, devoid of any smoke or fire, and landed right in front of Shi Long. Just as Shi Long had barely finished preparing his defense, he saw Wang Yu's palm attacking him.

  Wang Yu's palms clashed, and Shi Long only felt a surge of great force coming, his whole body was knocked flying out, directly smashing through the door and window with a huge hole. The person in mid-air spat out fresh blood. What made Shi Long even more unbelievable was Wang Yu's inner strength. A young man not over twenty years old, his skills were actually deeper than his own. How is this possible?

  Shi Long's martial arts were already inferior to Wang Yu's, and now he had lost the initiative. Wang Yu's Tian Mo skill was unusually sinister, and Shi Long couldn't defend against it at all, making him look so vulnerable to defeat.

  Deprived of reason, Wang Yu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he sprang up, chasing after Shi Long in the air like lightning. His palm moved like a knife, lightly chopping down towards Shi Long's body.

  Shi Long's body was in mid-air, unable to dodge. Although Wang Yu's palm seemed to have no power, Shi Long would never underestimate this palm.

  Taking a deep breath, Shi Long forcibly suppressed his injuries, mobilizing all his energy to stimulate his potential and overloading his power. He twisted his body with great force, using every ounce of strength to dodge Wang Yu's palm.

  But what made Shi Long's soul palpitate was that at this moment, Wang Yu suddenly disappeared in front of Shi Long like a ghost, and then Shi Long only felt a chill rising on his right side, without thinking he knew that Wang Yu had appeared again on his right side.

  Shi Long wanted to force himself to get up again and avoid this attack. But Wang Yu didn't give him that chance. The palm of the soul-snatching, life-taking hand silently struck Shi Long's heart meridian. The Tianmo True Qi was released in one breath, shattering Shi Long's heart meridian. No more chances were given for Shi Long to struggle at death's door.

  Yizheng, the number one master of Yangzhou who had been active for decades, "Tuishan Shou" Shi Long, left the world like this. Before his death, the last sentence he heard was "Why bother", I don't know what he thought, whether he regretted his stubborn resistance.

  People die for wealth, birds perish for food. It's hard to blame. The strange thing is that Shi Long took something he couldn't control. Originally, Wang Yu didn't plan to kill Shi Long, but after Shi Long actively attacked Wang Yu, the two were destined to be irreconcilable. Since they had already become enemies, it was better to take drastic measures and do things thoroughly. Cut the grass and eliminate the roots, leaving no future troubles.

  It's better this way, so the matter of "Chang Sheng Jue" won't be spread out.

  At this time, Shi Long had not yet spread the news of the "Longevity Formula", and even his disciples did not know.

  Wang Yu walked up to the stone dragon's lifeless body, ignoring its dead and unblinking eyes, and reached into its chest to search. He soon found the purpose of his trip - "The Secret to Long Life".

  King Yu smiled contentedly, put the "Longevity Secret" into his bosom, started his light skill, and disappeared in the Stone Dragon Arena. As for this mess, King Yu had no mood to clean it up.

  Back at the temporary lodging inn, Wang Yu closed the door and carefully read through the "Longevity Formula".

  "The Secret of Longevity" is composed entirely of oracle bone script. Looking at the text, Wang Yu couldn't understand it at all. Fortunately, the essence of "The Secret of Longevity" lies in its seven diagrams. Each of these seven diagrams has a unique function, and mastering any one of them can make one an unparalleled expert.

  In the original work, Kou Zhong cultivated the sixth diagram with movement as the main focus; Xue Ziling cultivated the seventh diagram with stillness as the main focus. After they completed their cultivation, the internal energy of the two people was one hot and one cold, inside the body one yin and one yang, complementing each other. Hmm, no matter how you listen to it, it's all about a BL rhythm, so it seems that these two are really in love?

  After Wang Yu obtained the "Longevity Formula", he studied it for a night, and finally had some results the next day - Wang Yu found that he indeed had no fate with the "Longevity Formula". No matter how hard he tried, Wang Yu couldn't cultivate the "Longevity Formula". It seems that if one wants to cultivate the "Longevity Formula", they can only take the path of self-disablement.

  But for Wang Yu, this is undoubtedly impossible. Because "Tian Mo Ce" was originally a martial arts classic of the same level as "Chang Sheng Jue", and Wang Yu had already cultivated it for twelve years, how could he possibly abandon his martial arts? It seems that "Chang Sheng Jue" is destined to have nothing to do with him.

  It doesn't matter. Kou Zhong and Xuzi Ling, no matter how many strange encounters they had, in the end, they only stopped at the level of a master. The "Longevity Secret" has never been broken through by anyone in the future, which can be seen that it is just a name without substance. At the same level, there are records of people achieving great success and flying up to the sky with the "Dao Xin Zhong Mo Da Fa" from the "War God's Record" and the "Tian Mo Ce". From this, we can see that the "Longevity Secret" is not a good choice, no need to be too entangled. Wang Yu could only comfort himself in this way.

  Gained by me is good fortune, lost by me is fate, that's all. Wang Yu soon dispelled the disappointment in his heart. Martial arts and military training are like precious things, valuing quality over quantity. With the "Huangdi Neijing" and "Tianmo Ce" in hand, it's actually enough. One can't be too greedy when it comes to being a person.

  "Chang Sheng Jue" can only be a collection of Wang Yu's now, Wang Yu decided to put it on the shelf. In the future, maybe he can let his woman try it out.
