CHAPTER 395: CHAPTER 261: HAVOC AT THE FIVE INTERNAL ORGANS TEMPLE

Gulp, gulp~~

This was also the first time Chen Ku transformed to the size of a bug, entering someone else’s stomach. What he saw was the red intestinal wall, and he landed with the watermelon juice into the stomach of this black-faced man.

He randomly chose a spot to stand on.

Transforming into a small human figure, he lightly tapped the surrounding blood-red moving flesh, which unexpectedly made a ’clang, clang’ sound.

"This black-faced man’s internal organs, not only are they protected by a Qi film, but there’s also a layer of Gang Qi shielding them..."

Chen Ku could immediately tell how tough the black-faced man’s organs were.

However, he smiled slightly:

"No matter how much Gang Qi protects the body, it can only ensure the organs are unharmed. I don’t believe when I start dancing inside, it won’t hurt at all?"

At this moment, the muffled sound of speech came from outside the body of the black-faced man.

"Killing Star?"

Li Tiansheng and the Purple Gold Elder couldn’t help but look seriously at this black-faced man. They had speculated about the black-faced man’s identity, since it was known that the top ten seats on Liang Mountain were occupied by Martial Practitioners of the Seventh Realm level.

They could only guess that this black-faced man was probably one of the top figures of Liang Mountain, but could not figure out who exactly for the moment.

Until Mr. Tianji himself revealed the man’s identity.

"The Killing Star of Liang Mountain? Could it be the notorious Contest Killing God, Cheng Qingniu?"

The black-faced man rubbed his belly, his laugh sounding like a jar, somewhat simple and honest, said: "That’s right, it’s me. I didn’t expect you’d also know Old Cheng’s name."

Li Tiansheng said seriously: "The fame and prestige of the Contest Killing God is known not only in Qiu Dragon but also in other prefectures of You State. How could we not know?"

This Cheng Qingniu, nicknamed ’Contest Killing God’, was reportedly originally from Baili County in Lishui Prefecture, You State, born with a dark, strong build and extraordinary physical strength.

It is said that in his early years, he had a grudge with a landlord in his village and, in a fit of rage, killed the landlord’s entire family of over a hundred people with a Xuanhua Axe. When village folks came to stop him, he cut down anyone he saw until he had slaughtered over three hundred villagers.

This alarmed the local County Magistrate, who dispatched three hundred soldiers to capture him. Knowing he was outnumbered, this fellow fled from Baili County and drifted elsewhere.

Years later, he somehow encountered an adventure and learned an axe technique, beginning to make a name for himself across the Nine States, gaining considerable notoriety and even finding a patron to work under.

After attaining great achievement in martial arts, he found a protector and returned to Baili County to erase his crimes, but upon returning, he was reported by his old enemies. When he went into a killing rage, he killed not only over a hundred more people but also over two hundred soldiers of Baili County.

Since then, he had no place in the White Dao, so he went to Liang Mountain.

After reaching Liang Mountain, with his innate divine power and root bone, his axe skills further evolved, making him one of the top ten figures in less than ten years.

For more than a decade, under the Pagoda-Bearing King Tie Zongtang’s command, he repeatedly repelled the soldiers sent by Qiu Dragon’s prefectures. With his Xuanhua Axe, he accumulated a blood debt of at least two or three thousand lives.

Due to his early killing spree, he garnered the nickname ’Contest Killing God’ among the Greenwoods of the Black Path.

"If I could have Brother Qing Niu accompany me, that would be best."

Speaking, Li Tiansheng felt the rough aura of the killing god, making his heart wary but also recalling Mr. Tianji’s subtle hint.

This risky adventure was indeed worthwhile.

As the rumors say,

he is indeed the ’illegitimate child’ of the current real powerholder of Qiu Dragon Mansion, Magistrate Li Lishan, and a courtesan. Because of his special background, he cannot be publicly acknowledged.

So he was entrusted by his father to the second person of the Black Path of old, Purple Gold Elder.

Over the years, with Li Lishan managing the entire Qiu Dragon Mansion, everything was organized meticulously, which was not solely due to his father’s governance skills.

He, Li Tiansheng, and the second-largest Martial Association, Hongwu Meeting, were responsible for at least sixty percent of the success.

There has never been a shortage of examples of collusion between officials and businessmen, protection rackets, and white gloves throughout history.

If this white glove is your own son, wouldn’t you feel even more assured using it?

Conversely.

The rapid rise of the Hongwu Meeting over the years, being second only to Qin Yuxian, couldn’t have happened without the support and help from his biological father.

Yet,

how could Li Tiansheng be content to be just a mere leader of the Hongwu Meeting, playing such a role that never sees the light of day throughout his life?

Mr. Tianji observed Li Tiansheng’s expression.

He shook his feather fan and smiled.

If Li Tiansheng were merely of mediocre talent, it would be one thing.

But to have achieved the Seventh Realm level by his forties demonstrated this Hongwu Meeting leader’s talent and ambition—the more capable a person is, the greater their ambition...

All that was needed was a push at a particular critical point.

Li Tiansheng is such a man.

The Purple Gold Elder is as well.

Everyone has desires.

As long as you grasp others’ needs and lacks and use them wisely, you can easily turn foes into friends and make allies.

"In that case, it’s better to act sooner than later. Let’s take action tonight."

Mr. Tianji slowly spoke:

"I will first head to Three Dragon Mountain, and while waiting for your news, prepare a second fire for the Chen Brothers I’ve placed my hope in."

In the stomach, Chen Ku heard this sentence.

He chuckled coldly:

"Then you just wait patiently."

...

It was late at night.

Li Tiansheng and Cheng Qingniu arrived outside the Prefect’s house.

Li Tiansheng said in a low voice:
