A few days later, in the early morning.
Yun Shu had finally come back to the cave where Feng He and the rest of his men lived. Although it was still early, many of them were already practicing their martial skills hard in front of the cave. He slightly nodded in approval.
Even though he was not around in the past few days, they had not been lazy.
The disciples were more than happy because of Yun Shu's return. They all hurriedly saluted their boss.
Yun Shu looked around at them. Although he could not recognize everyone, there were a few faces he remembered. Compared to the last time he met them, their breathing appeared to be much calmer and smoother.
Obviously, they had made a breakthrough.
Seeing that his men were becoming stronger, Yun Shu was also proud. At this time, knowing that the boss had returned, Feng He also ran out of the cave.
"You also made a breakthrough?" Yun Shu said with a smile.
Feng He had reached the ninth level of the Qi Sky Realm.
"It's all because of the pills you left us, Senior Brother Yun. Almost all of us have made some progress in the past few days. Now we have twelve brothers who have reached the ninth level of the Qi Sky Realm!" Feng He said proudly.
Yun Shu lightly nodded. "Good. Keep up the good work. Don't save the pills, and just ask me when you need more."
"I will!" Feng He nodded.
After simply walking around, Yun Shu was about to go to the stele square to find Su Lingwen. But at this time, they heard a sudden noise.
The look on Feng He's face quickly changed. "They're here again."
"What is it?" Yun Shu frowned.
Feng He gnashed his teeth and said, "It's Uncle-Master Lu Nong's men."
"Uncle-Master Lu Nong? Who's that?" Yun Shu asked.
"He's also a disciple here in the Valley of Crime, but he's our Uncle-Master, and he's much stronger than us. It is said that he has reached the seventh level of the Aqua Sky Realm. He is the strongest in this valley, except for the elders who are imprisoned in the stone prisons…" Feng He explained.
Yun Shu didn't think so, though.
The strongest in the valley? No way.
Su Lingwen had reached the ninth level of Aqua Sky Realm.
"So, why they're here?"
Facing the question, Feng He suddenly knelt down on the ground and said, "Senior Brother Yun, forgive me! A few days ago, when I was distributing the pills, somehow, Lu Nong and his men caught wind of the news. Then he sent his men here to ask for the pills. Trying to avoid the trouble, I gave them ten pills and told them that you and Elder Du are close. Thus, they didn't give us a hard time. But since then, they keep coming back for the pills. This is the seventh time."
Then, Feng He paused for a second and continued, "Also, I heard that Huang Sheng has also joined them."
A cold beam of light flashed in Yun Shu's eyes. Feng He was shocked, and he hurriedly begged, "Please forgive me, Senior Brother Yun!"
"I'm not blaming you. Facing the enemy stronger than you, what you did was proper. But it's totally stupid of Lu Nong to mess with me. Also, Huang Sheng again…" Yun Shu said in a cold voice.
He knew that this was mainly because of Huang Sheng. Feng He hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Yun, please think twice! Unlike Fang Quan and her men, Lu Nong is much more experienced in fighting, and he has reached a higher realm!"
Yun Shu ignored him and walked out.
In front of the cave, Yun Shu saw a man standing there in an arrogant manner, yelling, "Am I wrong? Your Senior Brother Yun is just a coward. He never shows up! He must be so afraid of me that he's hiding his head between his legs!"
Afterward, he and his lackeys burst into laughter together. He had about twenty men with him.
Yun Shu's men were all in a rage and were ready for a fight.
Feeling the hostility, the look on the man's face suddenly became gloomy. He released his power and created a chilling atmosphere around, giving Yun Shu's men a hard time breathing.
The man had reached the first level of the Aqua Sky Realm. No wonder he was so arrogant. But unfortunately, he had pissed off the wrong person!
Yun Shu squinted his eyes. Next, he immediately used Thunder Move and skillfully landed in front of his men. At the same time, he released his fire-type power, and the atmosphere he created instantly offset that cold air.
Witnessing this, the man standing opposite from Yun Shu was stunned for a second.
"Who are you?" he asked, squinting.
"Yun Shu. And who are you?" Yun Shu calmly replied.
That man laughed and replied, "Good, the coward is finally willing to reveal himself. I'm Yang Tang, and I'm not gonna waste my time here. Give us a hundred pills today, and we'll leave you and your men in peace. Otherwise…"
"Otherwise what?" Yun Shu asked coldly.
Yang Tang sneered and released that cold air again.
"Otherwise, I don't mind having some exercise here!" Yang Tang said, staring at Yun Shu.
"You asked for this!" Yun Shu suddenly leaped in the air.
Yang Tang did not expect that Yun Shu would initiate the fight. Immediately, he became furious, cursing and raising his hand. His hand was like a claw covered in ice and frost.
Yun Shu simply used his palm to land the blow.
Crack!
The moment their palms pressed against each other, a cold air flow infused into Yun Shu's arm.
"My Ice Palm is a rank three Ordinary Level martial skill, and I've fully mastered it. Say bye-bye to your arm," said Yang Tang triumphantly.
But unexpectedly, as soon as he finished his words, Yun Shu used his hand, which was already useless in Yang Tang's eyes, and directly snapped Yang Tang's bones.
"Ah! You!" Yang Tang suddenly panicked, having no idea how this was possible.
"You are in the Fire Mystic Sect, but you practice ice-type martial art skills. You're such an idiot!" said Yun Shu. Then he leaned forward as his hand pressed on Yang Tang's head.
"You…!"
Yang Tang tried to say something, but Yun Shu wouldn't give him a chance. Snaking electric arcs flashing under his palm, he instantly made Yang Tang shut up.
Then Yun Shu's hand pressed Yang Tang's head down further and tucked it firmly between his legs.
Just now, Yang Tang was laughing at Yun Shu and said that he was hiding his head between his legs. But this actually happened to himself!
Yun Shu stripped Yang Tang's clothes and tied him into a ball.
After making the demonstration, Yun Shu said to his men, "What are you guys waiting for? Catch the rest of them and tie them up, just like how I did!"
