Chapter 109: Is This A Human?
“They all say that the dog that bites doesn’t bark, but you’re barking so happily, are you trying to bolster your own courage? Speaking of which, that woman you sent is really quite good.” Chen Wujun’s expression carried a bit of mockery, still in the Master’s Three Bows stance.
Although his Swimming Dragon Palm was executed even better, his strikes were inherently violent and fierce, so the grand, sweeping Three Sovereigns Cannon Hammer suited his style more.
And this move, Master’s Three Bows, was both offensive and defensive, and he had gained quite a few insights from it just now in the fight.
However, he didn’t get careless, but first used words to provoke the opponent.
If the opponent clashed head-on with him, he would be dead for sure.
Zhou Qing on the beam shook his head slightly. He had lived upright his whole life, but this Little Sixteen was a real thug.
But it wasn’t anyone’s fault. He had traveled through Eastern Eighth District and Eastern Seventh District, and only thirty years ago did he realize that rule-abiding disciples, no matter how talented, would ultimately have limited achievements.
There’s an old saying: A family without a prodigal son, from where does the wealth come?
If there’s no one in the family who’s bold enough to take risks, how can they get rich and change the family’s situation?
By the same logic, without that kind of ambitious, extremely bold type, it’s hard to reach the heights he wanted.
Sure enough, upon hearing Chen Wujun’s words, Ruan Wenshan’s anger flared up instantly, his eyes like spewing fire, but he forcibly suppressed it.
He stomped his foot, and his leather shoes exploded directly. With one foot planted on the ground, hands spread open, neck elongated, he stood there just like a great white crane pecking for food in shallow waters.
He had been observing from the side earlier and noticed that Chen Wujun had immense strength and a body full of hardening kung fu.
Only Crane Form, Snake Form, and Mantis Form could break it.
Chen Wujun took treading steps, crossing over ten meters in just two or three steps. His body rippled with muscles coiled like a giant python, Dragon Strength coursing through his entire body. Leading with both fists in a bow, he unleashed a bowing hammer strike.
The hammer hadn’t even arrived, but the force wind hit his face, making even Ruan Wenshan unable to open his eyes.
“What a ferocious move! I absolutely cannot block it or suppress it! The moment I suppress it, he can borrow the force for an even fiercer hammer strike.” Ruan Wenshan had seen it clearly from the side earlier, and now he thought to himself.
His body flashed extremely nimbly to the side. Hands formed into pecks with Bone-Piercing Strength, one pecking at Chen Wujun’s arm joint, the other at Chen Wujun’s eyes.
Like lightning, he arrived right in front of Chen Wujun.
Strike the man, first strike his courage; strike his courage, first strike his eyes.
Ruan Wenshan understood this principle.
Fighting Chen Wujun meant targeting his joints and vital weak points, especially the eyes.
Many people panic when their eyes are hit, and then they make mistakes.
Chen Wujun’s Master’s Three Bows missed. His left foot stepped outward to the right foot, body twisting as he bent down to sweep his leg, changing from Three Sovereigns Cannon Hammer’s Master’s Three Bows to Swimming Dragon Palm.
Ruan Wenshan’s vision blurred, and he hurriedly lifted his leg to retreat.
Chen Wujun instantly sprang forward with progress, his right hand in Hook Hand like shaking a whip, drawing a straight line straight at Ruan Wenshan’s throat, so fast that it was almost impossible to react.
The air cracked with a snap from his arm.
Yet in an instant, he switched from Swimming Dragon Palm to Tong Bei Quan.
Goosebumps instantly rose on Ruan Wenshan’s throat, a dense layer on his neck.
This was from shock, and also sensing the crisis. Without time to think, he stepped back, while his right hand flashed in a peck toward Chen Wujun’s wrist, his mouth emitting a clear crane cry, sharp and piercing, using qi to drive force.
Chen Wujun shook his right hand, and his fist collided with Ruan Wenshan’s Crane Peck. Ruan Wenshan felt like he had pecked into hard wood.
And Chen Wujun also felt his finger bones ache.
Even with his Tiger Roar Golden Bell Shield hardening kung fu, his fingers subconsciously trembled.
“Bone-Piercing Strength!” Chen Wujun immediately realized in his mind.
This Luoyue person actually knew Bone-Piercing Strength, gathering force into a single point. The surface might just swell red, but the internal injury would be severe.
Chen Wujun shook his hand, cupped his fists with both hands, still in Master’s Three Bows.
And Ruan Wenshan also landed on both feet, hands one up one down, trembling like a snake flicking its tongue, switching from Crane Form to Snake Form.
Just now, he was truly startled. He hadn’t expected Chen Wujun’s hardening kung fu body to be so agile, with fist and palm transitions flowing like clouds and water, without the slightest hitch.
“Hiss—” Ruan Wenshan let out a faint snake tongue sound from his throat. His footwork became erratic and unpredictable, no longer Crane Form’s light leaps, but Snake Form’s ground-trailing slithering, circling Chen Wujun to find an opening.
Plus those venomous eyes made him even more like a poisonous snake.
Zhou Qing observed from above, shaking his head slightly: ‘Back then, Luoyue people learned Five Plum Blossom Fist, then some southern fist styles, added their own things, and turned it into Qi Observation Path. Over the years, they’ve produced some masters.’
‘But this one below hasn’t grasped the essence. He only learned Entanglement and Seizure, hasn’t practiced pinpointing acupoints, practiced lightness but not ground trailing kung fu. If he continued with Crane Form’s lightness, he could tangle a bit longer, but using Snake Form to tangle now is asking for death.’
With Zhou Qing’s top master insight, he saw through Ruan Wenshan’s foundation at a glance and knew he was about to die.
Chen Wujun’s body turned with Ruan Wenshan’s movements, always facing him directly. Before Ruan Wenshan could act, Chen Wujun moved his foot and was in front of Ruan Wenshan, still swinging a bowing hammer in an arc.
Ruan Wenshan’s eyes twitched. His body twisted, hands wrapping bonelessly onto Chen Wujun’s left arm.
Chen Wujun immediately felt his left arm as if constricted by a giant python, almost unable to move.
‘Silk-Coiling Strength!’
Swimming Dragon Palm also had Silk-Coiling Strength. Though Chen Wujun’s Swimming Dragon Palm went the fierce route, he still knew a thing or two about this kind of force.
Especially with their arms connected, he immediately listened to Ruan Wenshan’s force and center of gravity.
‘He wants to twist off my arm!’ Chen Wujun’s mind flashed in that split second.
After his hands wrapped onto Chen Wujun’s arm, Ruan Wenshan’s body suddenly flipped to the side, trying to use his whole body’s strength to twist off Chen Wujun’s arm.
At this moment, Chen Wujun also separated his hands, switching from Master’s Three Bows to Swimming Dragon Palm. His body flipped along with it, while his right hand clamped Ruan Wenshan’s wrist, and his foot trailed to stomp toward Ruan Wenshan’s instep.
Though his foot was only a sole’s height off the ground, this kick had force that could pierce rock, ferocious beyond measure.
How could Ruan Wenshan dare let him step on it? His hands yanked hard, feet springing backward, trying to pull Chen Wujun off balance.
But Chen Wujun was prepared. With Ruan Wenshan’s yank, Chen Wujun borrowed the force to advance. His right foot slammed heavily on the ground, left foot shooting out like a venomous snake from its den, silently kicking toward Ruan Wenshan’s chest.
Chen Wujun had practiced this Phoenix Dives into Nest to perfection. In a flash, Ruan Wenshan’s vision blurred, and a black shadow arrived at his chest.
Ruan Wenshan was greatly alarmed inside, immediately thinking it was bad.
His body wanted to retreat further, but his wrist was tightly gripped by Chen Wujun.
At the same time, a burst of qi rose from Chen Wujun’s chest, rushing out from his throat.
“Roar!”
A heaven-shaking Tiger Roar erupted.
Ruan Wenshan, already unable to break free, was caught off guard and had his blood and qi scattered by this Tiger Roar.
With this roar, Chen Wujun not only disrupted the opponent’s blood and qi, but also used voice to drive force, adding even more power to this kick.
Bang!
This nest-heart kick directly sent Ruan Wenshan flying into the air, with a crack from his chest.
Chen Wujun suddenly switched legs. As his left foot landed, his right foot whipped out again like a shadow, striking Ruan Wenshan’s chest.
Crack!
With this kick, who knows how many of Ruan Wenshan’s chest bones broke. He sprayed a mouthful of blood into the air.
Chen Wujun’s arms suddenly bulged. He yanked Ruan Wenshan back fiercely and swung him hard toward the ground beside them.
Boom!
The cement ground was smashed into a human-shaped crater. Amid cracking sounds, Ruan Wenshan had who knows how many bones broken, lying there limp and soft.
Chen Wujun’s eyes were full of cruel ferocity. His arms exerted force, swinging Ruan Wenshan up like a broken sack, smashing him onto the cement ground again.
Boom!
Ruan Wenshan lay in the pit, blood spurting from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, without a trace of breath left.
This sheng sha master, just like his younger brother, died without a single intact bone in his body.
Just as Zhou Qing thought, if Ruan Wenshan had used Crane Form’s lightness, he could have tangled with Chen Wujun a bit longer.
But after switching to Snake Form and using Entanglement and Seizure.
Chen Wujun was most skilled in Swimming Dragon Palm, with agile form, and excelled at Listening to Strength. The moment he touched, he knew where Ruan Wenshan’s whole body force and center of gravity were, and in just a few moves, he beat him to death.
“Master, it’s settled!” Chen Wujun said to Zhou Qing.
At this point, Chen Wujun only had a bit of sweat on him. Relying on his Tiger Roar Golden Bell Shield hardening kung fu, he hadn’t really exerted much force against these people.
Only against Ruan Wenshan did he use some real strength.
The weapon racks above clattered to the ground one after another, only the sound of metal hitting the floor, without the weapons jumping.
This kung fu was already divine.
Zhou Qing jumped down and said: “They’re from the Qi Observation Path school. Back then, Luoyue people learned Five Plum Blossom Fist from the south…”
Zhou Qing explained the origins of their kung fu.
Only then did Chen Wujun understand.
No matter how good his martial arts talent was, his experience with these was still limited. He had even only seen Mantis Form and Snake Form in the hands of these Luoyue people.
“Snake Form has acupoint strikes, Entanglement and Seizure, and ground trailing kung fu. He only learned Entanglement and Seizure, but not acupoint strikes or ground trailing kung fu. Otherwise, you’d be in trouble. With one yank from him, he’d borrow force to attack your lower body, and you’d suffer big losses.”
“Kung fu isn’t just about practicing; you have to observe. You need to know the strengths of each school to have a clear picture in your mind. At least, having seen similar moves before, you won’t be caught off guard and take big losses.”
“I understand, Master. I was planning to find time to check out what those two old technique martial arts schools in the walled city are like.” Chen Wujun said immediately.
“That’s it for today. Clean this place up. Oh, right, there’s still one outside.” Zhou Qing said flatly.
“I’ll go take care of it right now.” Chen Wujun quickly stepped forward and pulled open the warehouse door, then saw several cars parked outside the courtyard gate, with one person leaning against a car smoking.
Seeing the door open, he immediately looked over.
Seeing Chen Wujun walk out of the warehouse, the Li Dong Henchman thought he was seeing things at first. Looking closely again, he confirmed it wasn’t those Luoyue people and was instantly scared out of his wits.
The Li Dong Henchman hurriedly turned and scrambled into the car, wanting to drive away.
But as the car just started, Chen Wujun was already propelling forward with his back, legs flying in a sprint. His back muscles rippled like scales, then his arm like a steel whip smashed fiercely onto the car’s hood.
Boom!
The car’s rear lifted up, the front half smashed into the ground, front tire bursting, hood completely twisted and collapsed, windshield spiderwebbed.
This car was like it had been smashed by a road roller.
The Li Dong Henchman inside was shaken senseless, completely dazed, mind blank.
Is this a human?
Is this still human?
Only after a long while did he come to his senses, stepping on the accelerator with a crying tone.
“Start… start up…”
Accompanied by the sound of metal breaking, Chen Wujun had already torn off the adjacent car door.
Reaching in, he dragged the Li Dong Henchman out of the car and carried him back.
