Chapter 006: The Vast Family of the Sky
No matter how great the pressure, life must go on. Just as he was beginning to understand this, he suddenly froze in place
Even Xuan Shui Jun was unable to defeat Sui Yun Ge, let alone you all
His steps remained as agile as ever, with his breathing perfectly synchronized with his pace. He quickly ascended to the summit, taking in the entire scene on the opposite peak.
Gu Yinghua may not be able to make money, but she should at least treat herself to a hot shower. This young lady, no matter how petty she is, wouldn't be so stingy, would she
Brother Yun has returned
Several figures have already collapsed on the ground, drenched in blood, their fates uncertain. These individuals are none other than Liu Suiyun's closest friends and fellow villagers. As for Gu Yinghua, a young lady who is utterly defenseless, she appears to be paralyzed by the terrifying scene before her, showing no reaction whatsoever.
The first thing that caught the eye was the towering figure of Huo Qianshu, resembling an iron tower. Even from such a distance, Liu Suiyun could still hear the sound of his meteor hammer slicing through the air. Several men dressed in black were surrounding Huo Qianshu, while not far away, a few indistinct young figures were desperately protecting Gu Yinghua. However, the number of opponents surrounding them was significantly greater, placing them in a very unfavorable position. Even the two pots he had specifically brought from Linjiazhuang, along with the food inside, had been overturned on the ground.
The sounds of shouting and fighting came from the mountain peak designated by Liu Suiyun. Liu Suiyun, like a rabbit driven mad with rage, discovered that his sumptuous dinner had vanished without a trace. He immediately gripped his saber tightly, his eyes sparkling with fury, and quickly rushed towards the enemy, exclaiming, "Damn it, who stole my hot water and dinner!"
As for Gu Yinghua, she had already regarded Liu Suiyun as her savior. Whenever she thought of the possible fate she might encounter if captured, she couldn't help but clench her fists and silently pray: "As long as I can escape this time, I will definitely procure a Xuan Yun Yu Ding Dan for you. I, this young lady, speak with conviction and will never go back on my word"
Just as Liu Suiyun boasted to Gu Yinghua, he was extremely familiar with the outskirts of Falling Star Mountain, almost as if it were his own backyard. His mood became cheerful, and he no longer considered the issue of the five hundred thousand coins.
Despicable, Liu Suiyun felt that these fellows were more detestable than ten Xuan Shui Jun. He grabbed his broadsword and charged directly towards the opposite hill, shouting: "Hold on, I am back!"
Upon seeing the sudden arrival of reinforcements, one of the assailants immediately shouted, "This is Liu Suiyun, the martial artist from the Tiger-Breaking Realm who has sustained injuries before"
When Liu Suiyun shouted like this, the Tianyi Gang had no way to respond, merely exchanging cold smiles with one another. What kind of storm could a mere minor figure in the Tiger-Breaking realm stir up? No matter how great the ability, it was nothing more than courting death. Even the young people from the Lin family village had begun to feel a sense of despair—indeed, despair!
It is important to understand that regardless of the origins or abilities of this Xuan Shui Jun, it ultimately possesses the form of a chicken's head and a snake's body. Whether it is a rooster or a snake, both are inherently suppressed by this giant eagle. Even when the eagle cries out to the heavens, the Xuan Shui Jun not only lacks the power to retaliate but also chooses to abandon its armor and flee.
A piece of Xuan Yun jade cauldron elixir is not a significant issue for her; when did it become the turn of these minor warriors to flaunt their prowess before her
The young people of Linjiazhuang were originally in a precarious situation. However, with Liu Suiyun's shout, they gained a bit more courage. Yet, the opponents charging from the opposite side not only outnumbered them but also included skilled fighters at the Tiger-Breaking level. Fortunately, Huo Qianshu managed to hold back two formidable opponents at the Bone Refining level, allowing them to endure for this long. Even though they had gained a little courage now, the battlefield remained overwhelmingly one-sided, with people occasionally falling to the ground.
He could not help but feel a flicker of hope in his heart, yet he was well aware that Liu Suiyun had gone out this morning to draw away the Xuan Shui Jun. Even if there had been no real battle with the Xuan Shui Jun, it would still have required considerable effort. Now, how much strength could be preserved was truly an unknown.
The pursuit along this journey has exacerbated his old injuries, and now Liu Suiyun is completely incapable of engaging in any physical confrontation. While he enjoys the warmth of the pool water, he rummages through his pouch in search of food. Besides half a bag of fried peas, there are also many bits and pieces of snacks that he owes to Aunt Zhang's shop. He picks up a piece of snowflake cake and begins to chew, yet he lacks even the strength to complain: "That Miss Gu is truly not a good patron; despite my hard work, she refuses to increase my pay..."

He picks up a piece of snowflake cake and begins to chew, yet he lacks even the strength to complain: "That Miss Gu is truly not a good patron; despite my hard work, she refuses to increase my pay..."
It was precisely through the observation of this battle that Liu Suiyun's martial arts made significant progress. He even absorbed the soaring momentum of the eagle flying high into the sky into his own martial arts, which gave him the confidence to venture into the martial world. He even learned the technique of the Breaking Sky Eagle Cry. Although today's execution of the Breaking Sky Eagle Cry only bore a resemblance of about 20 to 30 percent, it still frightened the Xuan Shui Jun to the point of trembling with fear and losing his composure.
In this battle, Lord Xuan Shui was almost useless. Although the demon serpent moved with great speed and could spew out poisonous fire, strangle at close range, and possessed a precious demon core, when faced with the giant eagle soaring in the skies, he was unable to exert even a fraction of his abilities and was completely on the defensive.
Kill
He shook his head helplessly. Once he used this trump card, the outcome would be certain death. Sigh... It would be better to first secure 500,000 yuan from m.hetushu.com.
As he approached another hill where he would reunite with Gu Yinghua and the others, Liu Suiyun felt that all his old injuries had vanished without a trace, and he was already contemplating what delicious food would be available for dinner
However, Liu Suiyun's condition is far from good. Not only is his face covered in beads of sweat, but his entire linen garment has become half-dry and half-wet from perspiration. His complexion has also turned pale, and it feels as though a heavy stone is pressing down on his chest, causing him to breathe heavily. He even has one hand resting on his most cherished two-foot short sword.
They should not abandon themselves just because they encountered Xuan Shui Jun. They ought to be waiting for themselves on that mountain peak they had previously instructed, perhaps already preparing a sumptuous dinner. He remembers that there is a small lake at the lower left of that mountain peak, where he can boil a pot of hot water to take a refreshing bath.
I hope today's dinner includes braised pork, followed by a mushroom egg soup, and also ... ...
Upon hearing that this was the injured fighter from the Tiger Realm, the Tianyi Gang did not dare to be careless. Immediately, someone raised their banner, stating: "Tianyi Gang is conducting business, please allow Brother Liu to step aside"
Old Suiyun has returned
While Xuan Shui Jun was rolling incessantly in place, Liu Sui Yun was by a pool four to five li away, with a pair of bare feet immersed in the deep green waters, enjoying the brightness of the spring day
Compared to those who are sweet-tongued yet treacherous, Xuan Shui Jun is merely a little snake that is pure to the utmost. Liu Suiyun had to acknowledge a fact: even if he could find a young lady like Gu Yinghua, it would still be a mere illusion for him to save up five hundred thousand yuan with his temperament. He is a person who would rather die than give up his principles.
After hearing this sound, Huo Qianshu also swung a pair of meteor hammers with the swiftness of a meteor. Just as Liu Suiyun described, this meteor hammer is an extremely difficult weapon to wield. Huo Qianshu has dedicated twenty years to mastering this pair of meteor hammers, reaching a level of consummate skill. Even with his eyes closed, he knows how to maneuver them, which allowed him to restrain these few strongest opponents
As soon as Liu Suiyun thought of dinner and a hot bath, he felt much of his pain dissipate, and even his breathing became lighter. He reattached the two-foot-long short sword to his back and then took a step forward
Although he still has his trump card yet to be revealed, the Xuan Shui Jun can be said to be one of the most powerful demon beasts in the Falling Star Mountain. If a battle were to ensue, given his injured and weakened state, it is uncertain how much chance he would have of winning. Moreover, while he indeed possesses a trump card, the Xuan Shui Jun also has a demon core that has yet to be unleashed.
When he ventured deep into Falling Star Mountain that year, he witnessed a great battle. At that time, the Xuan Shui Jun, a serpent demon, teamed up with a four-horned rhinoceros and a white-skinned fierce tiger to confront a giant eagle. Each of these three formidable beasts possessed unique abilities, yet when united, they were still overwhelmed by the giant eagle, suffering a crushing defeat.
Throughout the journey, even when encountering fierce beasts or monsters, Liu Suiyun effortlessly evaded them. In fact, the sudden appearance of Xuan Shui Jun, who had originally been lurking deep within Falling Star Mountain, had already caused the most powerful monsters and ferocious beasts to vanish without a trace.
The tiger is unleashed
His entire outfit was already soaked with sweat, and Liu Suiyun was eager to change into a dry set of clothes. With his current physique, he could not withstand the cold wind blowing through the mountains. He also recalled Gu Yinghua, Huo Qianshu, and the young people from Linjia Village.
It is necessary to quicken the pace; although the sweat-soaked hemp clothing has become quite uncomfortable, Liu Suiyun's steps have grown increasingly light. It seems he can already smell the fragrance carried by the wind, anticipating a good meal.
However, the warrior from the Pang family who came to support suddenly had a flash of inspiration and shouted loudly: "Liu Suiyun, the Pang family is here to conduct business, why don't you step aside!"
Seeing Liu Suiyun's extremely slender figure in the wind, she became worried again. She shouted from a distance at Liu Suiyun: "If you haven't shattered Xuan Shui Jun with a single blow, don't bother with the money. Quickly roll back to Lin Family Village! Roll!"
Before his solitary figure stands dozens of elite members from the Tianyi Gang and the Pang family of Tianji
Although he said so, Liu Suiyun's lips still curled into a satisfied smile. This self-created technique, "Eagle's Cry in the Nine Heavens," indeed achieved remarkable success at a critical moment, directly frightening the old demon snake, Xuan Shui Jun, to the point of losing its wits.
Until the ripples danced on the water, Liu Suiyun's rather handsome face flickered in the pond, and only then did Liu Suiyun come back to his senses from his contemplation. He reminded himself: "Do not forget, your first priority is love, second is farming, third is Taoist arts, and fourth is martial arts... It is time to set out!"
Upon reflecting on this moment of triumph, Liu Suiyun dipped his sweat-soaked left hand into the cool pool water: "Fortunately, I managed to escape in time; otherwise, this fierce battle would have been quite troublesome."
The intent to kill is fully revealed, the blade is as swift as snow, and it has already come directly for the kill
However, five hundred thousand coins is not just a simple number. Liu Suiyun was unaware that Gu Yinghua was plotting something regarding the Xuan Yun Yu Ding Dan for him; instead, he found himself reminiscing about many past events.
As soon as the banner of the Tianyi Gang was raised, the group of young people from Linjia Village slowed down by three points. Who doesn't know that the Tianyi Gang is the largest gang in Linjiang County, and they cannot afford to provoke it. However, Liu Suiyun pressed on without hesitation: "Having taken Miss Gu's money, I must ensure that the matter is handled well!"
The Tianji Pang family is renowned even in Yunchong County, far surpassing the local power of the Tianyi Gang by countless times. Thus, Liu Suiyun gasped: "The Tianji Pang family! The Tianji Pang family! The Tianji Pang family!"
