Defiant Martial God

The red and black blade light disappeared together with the wind also stopped. It seemed like everyone had stopped breathing for a moment as they all stared breathlessly at the two figures in combat.

All the dwarves that were still alive all looked nervously towards their general.

“You are not my match.” Wu Tuo was the first to break the silence. Hearing these words, the dwarves all let out a sigh of relief. It seemed like it was their general"s victory.

However, immediately afterwards Qin Yu said something that caused all of them to be stumped for words.

“You really were strong. Unfortunately, both your arm and blade were too short.

Qin Yu had a wound on his waist, if the blade had gone in any further it would have taken his life. He was very lucky. The dwarf Wu Tuo"s arm length and blade length were short so he managed to skip a calamity.

Wu Tuo shook for a moment and his face turned pale while. On his stomach was two intersecting wounds. Even though they weren"t very deep, all of his chest armor had been ripped apart.

Wu Tuo reached up to touch the intersecting cuts. There was blood rus.h.i.+ng out of them.

“General!” The dwarven cavalry hastily rushed over. They dismounted from their devil beasts and made a protective circle around him. There were even a few that were so angry that they held onto their weapons as if they were about to charge at Qin Yu.

Big Bull roared like a lion and rushed behind Qin Yu wielding his club. His pair of bull-like eyes stared fiercely at the group of dwarves.

“Brother Big Bull, I"m coming to help you.” A relaxed voice followed behind. It was Li Jiuyang who claimed to be from the Zhengyang Sect.

After Li Jiuyang joined in the fight, several other cultivators also joined them. In but a short moment, Qin Yu was surrounded by more than ten cultivators.

“General, what do we do?” The dwarves were trying to get Wu Tuo to give out instructions. The current situation was looking rather grim.

“Support this General onto my steed. Go.” Wu Tuo gave out his order.

The dwarves were frightened, they didn"t realize that their general had been injured so heavily! He couldn"t even mount his steed, they had to leave.

“Go.” The group of dwarves decisively carried out the order. One of the strongest dwarves helped Wu Tuo onto a devil beast and the rest all also remounted.

“You want to run? It won"t be that easy! Waya!” Big Bull held onto his club and roared as he charged after them.

“Block him! Let"s go!”

Two of the dwarves stayed behind to cut them off while the rest quickly mounted their devil beasts. The beast made rumbling noises as they stomped away.

”d.a.m.n dwarves, have a taste of my club!” Big Bull raised his club high up and then brought it down ruthlessly in the direction of the two dwarves.

Both of them were late stage Transformation Realm experts. So upon seeing the club falling down on them, both of them hastily raised their blades together to block.

Although their cultivation was higher than Big Bull by a rank, Big Bull physique was considered monster-like in comparison to the rest of humanity. So, to these dwarves, he seemed even more huge. Like a mountain, his club was even more terrifying, it was even thicker than their waists. When the club smashed down, both of them blocked it, but were shaken so hard the web between their thumb and forefinger went numb. One of blades even directly broke apart and flew away.

“Run!”

Both of them no longer dared stay, and after only blocking them for a moment their devil beasts turned around and began to flee madly. When a devil beast runs at max speed, their speed was definitely at least a fold faster than humans. Big Bull was unable to catch them, so he just hollered and howled at their backsides.

"Hahaha! Wimps. The next time we meet I will crush you all to death!” Big Bull raised his club high up, then turned around and returned in a proud manner.

“Ha, Qin Yu, I made them retreat…….. Yi? What"s wrong with you?” Big Bull realized that Qin Yu suddenly fell over, scaring him into shout out loudly. He hastily put away his club and then ran over worriedly.

Qin Yu didn"t fall to the ground due to Li Jiuyang coming to support him in the nick of time.

“Little Brother, are you ok?” Li Jiuyang asked worriedly as he looked at the wound on Qin Yu"s waist. His eyebrows scrunched up and he said, “Sit here properly, here is some of Zhengyang Sect"s unique healing pills.

“Hey hey, Qin Yu, I"m here. Please by all means be ok. Otherwise I"ll have no way of going back to confront your parents.” Big Bull rushed over and roughly pulled Qin Yu up next to him. “Pa.” With his other hand, he forcefully pushed the pills into Qin Yu"s mouth, completely ignoring if the other party was willing to eat or not.

Big Bull was very ferocious in his actions, giving Qin Yu no chance to avoid eating the pill. By the time he realized what was going on, the pill had already entered his throat, causing him to choke for a good while.

“Cough cough cough… You… what did you make me eat?” Qin Yu"s face turned black as he asked in a dissatisfied manner.

“Obviously it"s a healing pill. Don"t worry, you"ll be good right after you eat them. This is our Sect"s unique pill, it"s really incredible.

He wasn"t boasting. The Ancient Witch Race"s Pills were definitely not any normal products.

Qin Yu could feel the pill going down into his stomach. After a moment, the medicinal power of the pill erupted and spread everywhere. He hurriedly got into a meditative stance to absorb the medicinal power. Originally he could use his “Refined Qi” stage healing ability to heal his wounds but this time he didn"t. This time he was only going to rely on the medicine power of the pill Big Bull gave him. At the same time, he was going to use this opportunity to cultivate up to the second stage of [Secrets of Eternal Life], “Refined Skin”.

Once “Refined Skin” was achieved, the skin of one"s body would be impervious to the sword and spear, unbreakable by fire or water. Now that he didn"t have the Golden Silk Armor protecting him, achieving Refined Skin would make his skin unpierceable. However, “Refined Skin” was a very painful and self-harming stage to achieve. For one"s skin must be destroyed and then repaired using the “Refined Skin” skill and the cycle must be repeated many times.

There"s only two ways to have your skin broken and ripped apart. The first way is to have someone else wreck it, essentially receiving wounds from fighting. The second way is to destroy your skin by yourself. To do this one must have an iron will to counter the inhuman pain.

No one around him would"ve thought that he would be refining his skill in this kind of time, place and situation. They all thought Qin Yu was just healing himself.

Seeing him motionless, who would dare disturb him?

Of course, Qin Yu was able to refine himself in such a place at ease because he had a bodyguard, Big Bull. Otherwise he would not have dared act this way.

The crowd of people saw that there was nothing else for them there so they all left and dispersed. At the end, there was only Li Jiuyang left.

In order to not bother Qin Yu, Li Jiuyang pulled Big Bull to the side and inquired quietly, “Brother Big Bull, is this your friend?”

“He is my brother. He"s called Qin Yu haha.” Big Bull honestly laughed as he scratched his head with one hand. “The Motherf*cker"s martial arts is actually stronger than mine.”

Li Jiuyang was very curious about Qin Yu. He had such terrifying strength at such a young age. Both of them were basically demons, they could both fight opponents of a higher cultivation. Qin Yu was even more demonic. He, an early-stage Transformation Realm expert was able to fight a peak-stage Transformation Realm expert. This was already a three rank jump fight. He had to make friends with these kinds of people. Especially the power behind them, they were even more deserving of being befriended.

“I don"t know of which sect you two brothers are elite disciples?” Li Jiuyang asked in a quiet tone.

“Sect?” Big Bull continued scratching his head, “What is a Sect? I don"t have a Sect ah?”

“You don"t?” In Li Jiuyang"s eyes, a shred of doubt flashed, “Then you guys… which family clan are you the children of?” After asking this question even Li Jiuyang himself felt like this wasn"t a possibility at all. To be able to cultivate such strong disciples, there"s no way a clan is able to do it. Only sects have this ability.

“That"s not it.” Big Bull immediately shook his head. This time his reply was very rapid and decisive. Don"t think that he"s a foolish idiot, he could be very shrewd at times. He would definitely never say that he"s from the Ancient Witch Race. The Clan Head had given him a death order. While in the outside world, anything pertaining to the Ancient Witch Race absolutely must not be leaked out to others. Not a single hair or thread is allowed. Qin Yu was also included in this seclusion.

Li Jiuyang was even more doubtful now.

Not from a sect or from a clan, so where in the world did these two come from? Don"t tell me? Are they wandering cultivators? Hmm, this isn"t very plausible either, otherwise how could they have such strong cultivation?

Using a normal person"s reasoning, the cultivation and skill of wandering cultivators are completely unable to match up to the strength of those who come out of clans or sects. Otherwise, there wouldn"t be so many people who want to enter a powerful clan or sect.

Having to figure out the path of cultivation by oneself, to be able to reach the Transformation Realm after reaching a hundred years of age was considered talented already. Both of them were so young yet already had reached the Transformation Realm in cultivation. Li Jiuyang was extremely unconvinced.

“Then what kind of place did the two of you come from?” Li Jiuyang was becoming more and more curious.

“This…..” Big Bull exerted all his strength to scratch the back of his head. He dropped his head forward slightly at an angle and thought for what seemed like half a day before saying, “I"m from the mountains.”

Li Jiuyang"s thoughts froze for a moment. Then a light flashed in his eyes as he guessed in his heart. Perhaps they were the disciples of some experts cultivating in seclusion in the mountains? This seemed to the possibility with highest probability.

Li Jiuyang wanted to continue questioning Big Bull and get to the bottom of the mystery so he wanted to ask who his master or teacher was. However, he was stopped by a weird shout Big Bull made.

“Ah! I remember now.” Big Bull suddenly firmly slapped the back of his head with a “Pa” so loud it felt as if his head wasn"t his at all.

“You just said you were from the Zhengyang Sect right? We were also headed to the Zhengyang Sect.”

Li Jiuyang was momentarily startled. After he recovered he immediately said in a pleasantly surprised tone, “You guys want to go to Zhengyang Sect? I don"t know what y"all are going to do there but this Li can help you with one or two things.”

Whatever they were going there to do, Big Bull wasn"t clear on. It was Qin Yu who wanted to go and not him. So, he could only turn his head to look at Qin Yu who was still sitting motionlessly "healing".

“It is my brother who wanted to go. He didn"t say what we were going to do there, so I also don"t know.” Big Bull helplessly replied.

“Eh….” Li Jiuyang looked at Qin Yu"s steadfast manner and another flash of doubt went through his eyes. Does it really take this long to heal?”

He really wanted to walk up and awaken Qin Yu and ask him for concrete details. However… he obviously couldn"t do that so he could only drop the thought.

“Ah! Brother Big Bull, this Li has some urgent matter to deal with so I must return. I also don"t know when this brother will finish healing. Since the situation is like this, here is a command medal. When you reach the Zhengyang Sect, if you have anything you need just use it to find me.” After speaking, Li Jiuyang then pulled out a three-finger wide pitch-black command medal.

Big Bull wasn"t courteous and directly took the command medal. After all, it"s easier to do things with an acquaintance to rely on.

“Good, when I reach the Zhengyang Sect I will definitely go find you.”

“Haha, Brother Big Bull is so straightforward. Then this Li will first say goodbye. See you at Zhengyang Sect.”

“Without a doubt.”

……

After Li Jiuyang left, Big Bull waited by Qin Yu"s side by himself. As he sat there and waited he almost started snoring yet Qin Yu still wasn"t done healing. Being too bored, he took out the command medal Li Jiuyang gave him and started drawing circles on the ground. After finis.h.i.+ng one he would draw another, and another, and another.

“Big Bull, what are you drawing?”

After G.o.d knows how many circles Big Bull drew, Qin Yu"s voice suddenly sounded next to Big Bull"s ears. He had finally finished.

“Ha, you"re finally done. Motherf*cker you almost bored me to death.” Big Bull shouted before jumping up.

Qin Yu saw the command medal in his hands and asked curiously, “What is that?”

“You take a look yourself.” Big Bull threw the command medal over to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu grabbed it and took a look, Zhengyang Outer Sect"s Manager, Li Jiuyang.

“Hey hey. Qin Yu. I"m so incredible right? I got to know one of the Zhengyang Sect"s people. Tell me what you were going to do and I can go find him and get him to help you. I guarantee that it will be done without a single hitch.” Big Bull was full of himself as he bragged.

“En, not bad. Hold it well, let"s go.” Qin Yu threw the command medal back, and started walking in the direction of Zhengyang Sect with fast steps.
