Chapter 10 is back

All lives are precious; how can one be so indifferent? You regard human life as mere grass, while I hold it dear. Whether it is the life of others or my own, there is but one life to live

Shen Lian stared intently at the man in the blue robe, remaining silent.

The man in the blue robe continued, "What you said, 'The hearts of men pity the sheep, while the hearts of wolves are filled with solitary sorrow,' truly resonates with me, yet I still cannot accept your kindness"

Even if Shen Lian blames him, he must let this person know right from wrong

Those four jars of wine, even if there are not a thousand cups, still amount to several hundred cups. The flavor is excellent and pure, and the potency is considerable. Even for a seasoned drinker, consuming four jars in succession would surely lead to a state of pleasant intoxication

He said, "In the late spring of March, the sheep rejoice and the grass grows tall," and the man in the green robe then opened the first jar of wine

Shen Lian remained silent, quietly awaiting the words of the man in the blue robe, only to think to himself: This person is indeed quite arrogant; if he did not possess astonishing skills, he would not have survived to this day

It is expected that the two individuals frequently engage in a battle of wits, demonstrating excellent coordination, and when facing the enemy, they exhibit no confusion whatsoever

Then the man in the blue robe gently pushed, and the two guards seemed to be like cotton, unexpectedly flying up, smashing an unknown number of tables and chairs, leaving the remaining guests in the hall too frightened to speak

In the bitter cold of winter, who will feed the wolves

Although Shen Lian is not well-versed in martial arts, it does not hinder his remarkable eyesight

The man in the green robe remained unfazed, his eyes still bright and clear, resembling the stars in a clear night sky

His words were resolute and unwavering, and he cast a glance, whether intentional or not, at the two guards from the Shen family who had followed him, regarding them with disdain as if they were mere weeds

Shen Lian spoke very slowly, while the man in the blue robe drank very quickly

The man in the blue robe recalled a phrase spoken by his deceased master whom he had killed: "In this world, there are always those kinds of people who lack overwhelming strength and absolute rationality, yet possess an astonishingly powerful spirit; they are the ones who create miracles"

"Come back." Shen Lian spoke only three words, yet they were as solid as a rock, unshakeable

The two guards struck simultaneously, greatly consolidating their own strength. Both individuals were robust, with well-defined and powerful muscles. As they threw their punches, their lower bodies remained extremely stable, resembling the action of drawing a bow to release an arrow

He can refuse the benefits promised by the elders of the Shen family, solely to avoid becoming a tool

The man in the blue robe set down his chopsticks, calmly facing Shen Lian's gaze, and said: "As the saying goes, when the master is humiliated, the minister dies; they have died for a worthy cause. Families like yours will not lack for burial expenses, so it would be better for you to take it a bit easier."

He asked the dead ghost master if he is that kind of person

At this moment, the two could no longer contain themselves. It is important to note that their duty is to ensure the safety of Shen Lian. If Old Master Shen were to find out that someone dared to speak so arrogantly and they remained unresponsive, would they not become mere good-for-nothings

Yes

Upon hearing this, Shen Lian smiled and said: "I suppose it was my last two sentences that slowed down the pace. There is no need for you to rush to drink, for this you must thank me"

This action brought him no benefit, yet he still proceeded to do it

Shen Lian's eyelids twitched slightly; despite his profound composure, he could not help but be shaken upon witnessing such a fierce and ruthless method.

The man in the blue robe also took one bite after another

Disordered yet harmonious, indistinguishable between the front and the back

Shen Lian was very calm, and this calmness was not feigned, but rather stemmed from the tranquility of his soul

Shen Lian was fearless and unafraid, with a calm heart and a spirit as steady as ever

By the time Shen Lian finished speaking, the man in the green robe had just finished drinking four jars of fine wine

The hearts of people pity the sheep, while the heart of the wolf is filled with solitary longing

The person in the green robe did not make a mistake in one thing, which is that "his indiscriminate killing of the innocent and his heinous crimes are not shortcomings; only his persistent arrogance is a shortcoming"

The man in the blue robe said: "Good lad, you invite me to dinner, not judging a person by mundane standards. Although I appreciate your generosity, I cannot accept your kindness. You must understand that in this vast Qingzhou Prefecture, there is no one who is worthy of inviting me to dinner."

The man in the blue robe gazed intensely, as if he were a sharp knife poised to shatter Shen Lian.

In late spring, in the third month, the sheep rejoice and the grass grows lush

Once again he said, "The sky is cold and the earth is frozen, who will feed the wolves?" At almost the same moment he finished this sentence, the man in the blue robe drank the second jar of wine.

It was precisely two guards whose fists collided, shattering the bones in their hands

One can also stand up for two humble guards, but one still feels like a person, rather than a cold, unfeeling stone

Two guards slammed the table and said, "If you dare to lay a finger on our young master, we guarantee you will not be able to leave this inn."

Two men with fists, one strikes the rib of a man in a green robe, the other strikes the shoulder

At the end, when he said, 'The heart of heaven is hard to fathom, and the feelings of the world are like frost,' Shen Lian could have spoken more quickly, deliberately making it difficult for the man in the blue robe, but he slowed down his speech, enunciating each word clearly

The sound of the punch is not merely the movement of the wind, but rather a resonance emanating from the bones. At this moment, the flower concentrates all its strength into a single punch, with immense force and rapid speed, making it exceedingly difficult to defend against. This also indicates that the practitioner has reached a certain level of proficiency in external martial arts.

Shen Lian did not wait for the man in the green robe to ask, but spoke on his own accord

Then I can still, before you finish speaking, use my internal family qigong to forcefully gulp down this jar of wine. However, after drinking it, I will have to take your head.

Even though the feeling of the man in the blue robe is that his strength surpasses Shen Lian by a great deal, killing him is as easy as crushing an ant.

The heart of heaven is hard to fathom, and the feelings of the world are as cold as frost

As they spoke, the two individuals stepped forward, raising their fists to the left and right, making a fierce sound.

And the two guards, seeing that they were not going to survive.

You owe me a favor, don't you

Indeed, although I am a person who indiscriminately kills the innocent and am utterly wicked, these are not faults. The only issue is that I am exceedingly arrogant. This wine is excellent, with a long-lasting potency. If I were to hastily consume the last barrel of wine, it would certainly cause some disruption in my internal energy flow. Under normal circumstances, it would pose no problem, but today, there are some petty individuals who wish to settle scores with me, and I must also take the newly acquired young servant with me to deal with them. I cannot afford to be negligent.

His master said that he is not, therefore he cannot create miracles, nor will he ever find the door to immortality. And * illustrations * books

The waiter was not slow in serving the wine, and four jars of fine brew arrived in an instant. Although this was significantly less than the original ten jars, the presentation was much improved.

The shopkeeper and the shop assistant were already so frightened that they were holding each other, trembling all over

Shen Lian said leisurely, "What if I were to say the last two sentences very quickly?"

Anyone who practices martial arts knows that a single sound is worth a thousand gold pieces

The man in the blue robe revealed a mocking smile, unhurried and calm, extending his right hand to sweep from left to right, effortlessly grasping the fist that was aimed at his shoulder, and with a downward motion, a crisp sound was heard

So what do you intend to do

Thus, the man in the blue robe did not say anything further, but struck his chest with a palm, a trace of fresh blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, which he did not wipe away, and said淡淡道: "Now I have repaid your favor."

Shen Lian intentionally quickened his speech in the phrase 'The hearts of men pity the sheep, while the heart of the wolf is filled with solitude,' yet he still did not finish before the man in the blue robe finished his third jar of wine, and once again, his words fell silent as the wine ran dry

The man in the blue robe seemed indifferent, as if he had just swatted two flies, and picked up his chopsticks to take another bite of food

One still cannot ignore Shen Lian's calm gaze, nor can one comprehend what Shen Lian relies on to dare to act this way, is it merely based on that ethereal spirit
