Chapter 44 Undercurrents Rage! Let's begin!
As soon as he left the main hall, Chen Xuan couldn't wait to start reading the secret manual in his hand.
There was an unexpected bonus!
This was something he never expected.
but!
His brows furrowed quickly.
Did the gang leader have any doubts about himself?
"If I doubted myself, why would I give myself the secret manual? But if I didn't doubt myself, why would I test myself so many times? Sigh, I'm still too weak..."
He sighed inwardly.
If he were even stronger, he would have enough courage to say no to others' doubts!
Sudden.
Chen Xuan sensed something and suddenly turned around.
Not far away, outside the courtyard, stood a figure with his hands behind his back, exuding a refined and scholarly air, quietly looking in his direction.
It was Zuo Qiuyun!
Chen Xuan grinned, ignoring him completely, and strode away.
I'll give you a piece of my mind.
Others may not know what kind of person you, Zuo Qiuyun, are, but surely I do?
"Neither of my left nor right protectors are good people. They've plotted against me countless times in secret. If I get the chance, I'd better crush them both..."
Chen Xuan's mind was in turmoil.
"..."
Zuo Qiuyun remained silent, watching Chen Xuan's figure from afar.
He had also been secretly informed about the situation at the dock.
I never expected that Chen Xuan would grow to this level in just a few days.
If I had known about his talent earlier, would I still have chosen to give him up?
Thinking of this, Zuo Qiuyun fell silent again.
"Soon, in a few more days I will be able to break through to the ninth level of the Transformation Realm, and then..."
His gaze suddenly turned dark and deep, and he turned and left.
...
Inside the carriage.
Chen Xuan checked his pleasure value again and found he had 1200 points left. Without hesitation, he immediately started adding points.
"Exhilaration Points, boosting the Hundred-Strike Splitting Fist!"
[Ding! You have consumed 1200 points of Joy to begin improving your Hundred-Crack Splitting Fist. Since you have already reached the third level of Transformation Force and mastered its various techniques and methods, this training session did not consume too many of your Joy points.]
You felt as if your arms had transformed into two giant axes, each swing tearing through the air with a piercing shriek. Under the relentless force, your muscles, bones, and skin underwent another astonishing transformation. Parts that had never been trained before were now being forged...
[You raised the Hundred-Crack Splitting Fist to the same level as the Vajra Blazing Sun Technique with almost no effort.]
[This training session is now complete!]
boom!
A roar suddenly came from his body, and his muscles, bones, meridians, and blood vessels underwent another series of invisible changes, as if he had cultivated for countless years in an instant.
Even the muscles in his arms, fists, latissimus dorsi, and trapezius have become much larger.
A surge of powerful energy coursed through his body.
He looked at the panel again.
"His cultivation level hasn't improved; he's still at the third level of the Transformation Realm. However, his strength... seems to have increased considerably again."
Chen Xuan pondered.
In this world, almost all martial arts, except those at the True Qi Realm, focus on cultivating the physical body.
Even martial arts of the same grade can produce different effects due to different focuses.
So, in general, the more martial arts one practices, the stronger one's body becomes.
But don't forget.
He was born with superhuman strength, so the benefits he gained from learning each new martial art were far greater than those of an ordinary person.
"With both martial arts skills perfected and combined with my innate superhuman strength and indestructible body, I wonder how much power this punch will unleash. When I get back, I might find a deserted mountain to test it out."
Chen Xuan's eyes flickered as he looked at his palms.
Since reaching the third level of Transformation Realm, he has never used his full strength.
Even when facing the gang leader, he only used his physical body.

...
...
time flies.
The whole day passed by in a flash.
The entire dock was bustling with activity. Jia Gui organized a group of people to rebuild the dock, and a large number of laborers and gang members were working here.
What they didn't know was...
An invisible flood is also silently covering the surroundings.
It was evening.
The sunlight was shining at an angle.
Thirteen Golden Dragon Village Headquarters.
Bai Shihong, an elder of the Bai family, sat upright in his chair with a gloomy face. His eyes were still fixed on the two mangled corpses of Bai family members in front of him. His fists were clenched, and he felt a sharp pain in his heart.
Thousands of miles...
Ling'er...
These are all exceptional talents who have never been seen before in the Bai family.
Originally, they came with me to broaden their horizons.
But now it has become like this.
When I get back, how should I explain this to the head of the household? How should I explain this to their parents?
The patriarch had repeatedly instructed me to ensure their safety before he arrived...
Thinking of this, Bai Shihong felt a surge of anger and almost wanted to roar to the sky.
He spent the entire day waiting for the investigation results from the Thirteen Golden Dragon Village.
at last!
Yue Kaishan rushed in again, his expression changing. He cupped his hands and said, "Elder Bai, we still haven't been able to find out who did it. We only know that Bai Qianli's body was found in an area three or four miles away from Qingshui Wharf. By the way, I also found out something else. Chen Xuan at Qingshui Wharf killed Fan Tao and Tie Niu, whom I sent out. He is suspected to have the strength of the ninth level of Dark Force."
"Suspected?"
Bai Shihong's voice was indifferent.
"Yes, Fan Tao has been at the ninth level of Dark Force for several years now. If he could kill Fan Tao, could he also kill Bai Qianli...?"
Yue Kaishan probed the question.
"understood."
Bai Shihong was almost numb.
Even if Chen Xuan were only suspected to be at the ninth level of Dark Force, he would still be no match for Qianli.
Qianli had undergone various medicinal baths and consumed various precious elixirs since childhood.
At the ninth level of Dark Force, he was already invincible among his peers!
Only those at the Transformation Realm can kill him!
Bai Shihong's eyes, filled with hatred, suddenly turned to Yue Kaishan, and he said, "Yue Kaishan, didn't you want to take action against the Chisha Gang? Tonight will do. Have you contacted everyone you need to?"
He harbored deep hatred for the Red Sand Gang.
Regardless of whether it was Chen Xuan or not, the blame was placed on the Chisha Gang.
If it weren't for dealing with the Red Sand Gang, Qianli and Ling'er would never have come.
Now that Qianli and Ling'er are dead, what reason does the Chisha Gang have to exist?
Of course, they must all be killed!
Not one left!
"All contacts have been made. In addition to Lu Zhentian, the leader of the Giant Whale Gang, there are also the leaders of the Blackwater Gang and the Poisonous Snake Gate, as well as several lone thieves and people on the blacklist."
Yue Kaishan said.
"Bring them in."
Bai Shihong's voice was indifferent.
"Yes, Elder Bai!"
Yue Kaishan responded respectfully and immediately withdrew.
Before long, he led more than ten figures back into the main hall.
These dozen or so figures were indeed all extraordinary.
Some were burly and imposing, with bronze skin; others had large knuckles and thick fingers; still others were dressed as women, with a slight smile on their faces.
They are all prominent leaders of powerful forces in the area!
Others were high-ranking criminals of the imperial court, ruthless killers with brutal methods.
"Greetings, Elder Bai!"
The group of people all clasped their hands in greeting.
Bai Shihong's gaze was icy as he swept over them one by one. Instantly, everyone's body tensed and their skin stung, giving them a strange illusion, as if dozens of silver needles had been pierced into their bodies in an instant, making everyone's hair stand on end.
This surprised them greatly.
Could it be that the opponent has already mastered the Gang Jin (罡劲) technique?
"I will take action against the Red Sand Gang tonight. I will personally kill the gang leader, Hong Wentong. The rest are yours. Make sure not a single one of them escapes."
Bai Shihong's voice was icy as he said, "As for the Qingshui Wharf that killed my nephew and niece..."
"Elder Bai, you can leave this to us!"
Suddenly, one of the women in the pink dress had a glint in her eye. She cupped her hands and said, "We guarantee that no one will be left alive. We can even bring Chen Xuan to you directly for you to interrogate!"
Beside him stood four other burly men, their eyes fixed intently on Bai Shihong.
They were notorious wanted criminals in the martial arts world, known as the Xishan Bees, all of whom were masters of internal energy cultivation, and they had always maintained close ties with the Thirteen Golden Dragon Stronghold.
If we can get on the good side of the Bai family this time, we might never have to hide again.
"Okay, but I don't like your outfit. Go change into something black."
Bai Shihong stared at her indifferently.
"Yes, Elder Bai!"
The woman immediately said.
An important person in the other party's family has died, and I'm dressed in a pink dress; it really doesn't look right.
"Then let's wait until it gets dark. Once it's dark, we'll make our move!"
Bai Shihong waved his hand and said coldly.
"yes!"
The crowd was filled with murderous intent and roared in unison.
The entire hall seemed to darken.
