After taking several deep breaths, Long Tian finally placed the first chess piece on the board. The next game officially began. Unlike the previous matches, the atmosphere around them was much more serious this time. Hu Dang no longer looked at Long Tian as a child who could be underestimated. His gaze had completely changed.

Every time Long Tian moved a piece, Hu Dang immediately calculated the various possibilities that might follow. Several times, he even raised a piece before putting it bac

  • Chapter 101: Long Tian's Strength

    If Long Tian had not been their enemy, the members of the Scorpion General group might have been impressed by his abilities. His throwing knife technique was extraordinary, but his movement technique was almost unbelievable for an eight-year-old child.Unfortunately, they had no opportunity to admire him under the current circumstances.To them, the small figure moving before their eyes was nothing less than a nightmare.Swoosh!Long Tian darted past a bandit and appeared on the other side before his opponent could even raise his weapon. The small knives he had been using were already gone. Therefore, he decided to draw White Eagle.A flash of silver glimmered as the short sword left its sheath."In that case, I'll use this."He gripped the hilt with one hand and moved again.Slash!A Third-Class Warrior immediately collapsed before he could even understand what had happened.Long Tian did not stop. His body moved nimbly among the bandits, sometimes leaping sideways, sometimes spinnin

  • Chapter 100: The Little Reaper

    Long Tian had finished collecting the small knives that had been scattered across the muddy ground. As he straightened up, his sharp eyes noticed that only three bandits were approaching him. Meanwhile, the remaining members of the criminal group had gathered in a massive wave, surrounding and attacking his master, who stood not far away.The three approaching bandits wore mocking smiles as they raised their rusty machetes. One of them shouted an order."Surround this area! Don't let the brat escape! Capture him alive or chop him into pieces!"The three men moved closer, forming a tight circle around Long Tian. In their minds, the boy had remained motionless because his small body had been paralyzed by overwhelming fear.However, what happened next was beyond their comprehension.Long Tian merely flicked his sleeves with a calm and casual motion. Three small knives shot through the air at an invisible speed, striking vital points and piercing the throats of all three bandits simultane

  • Chapter 99: The Bandits' Desperate Scheme

    The Red Scorpion group continued approaching the city gates. When they saw that the gates were only slightly open, several of them immediately burst into mocking laughter."Hey, look! It seems they really want to fight us. They have even opened the gates only a little!"The gap was far too narrow, perhaps wide enough for only a single horse to pass through.One of the group's senior members sneered and raised his hand."Fools! They must be tired of living! Come on, kill them all!"The bandits laughed loudly and continued urging their horses forward.When they reached the city gates, they finally came to a halt. Most of them were Second-Class and Third-Class Warriors. With such strength, they did not consider the city guards a threat at all.To them, the guards, who could not even be considered Third-Class Warriors, were merely trying to buy time.However, before they could continue their mockery, something suddenly shot out from above the city wall.Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!Several sma

  • Chapter 98: Preparing the City's Defenses

    Xuan Mo looked at his disciple for a moment. Inwardly, he wondered whether Long Tian simply possessed such a strong adventurous spirit that he paid little attention to the killing aura surrounding him.Moreover, despite his young age, the boy had already learned to conceal his killing aura quite well.For more than a year, Xuan Mo had devoted considerable time to teaching Long Tian. One thing he frequently did was help his disciple gradually eliminate the killing aura accumulated from various battles.However, after observing him more closely, Xuan Mo realized that Long Tian seemed to prefer learning how to conceal that aura rather than getting rid of it.This meant that his disciple might actually intend to retain it.Xuan Mo did not entirely disagree with that choice. Killing aura could actually serve as a weapon for a martial artist. If properly controlled, it could be used to suppress an opponent's mental strength. At an extremely high level, killing aura could even cause weaker m

  • Chapter 97: Preparing for the Scorpion General

    “Master, aren't they the group that had dealings with Uncle Hao before? If I remember correctly, one of their leaders possesses strength comparable to yours. What if the two of them come together?”Long Tian looked at Xuan Mo seriously.Although he knew that his master's internal injuries had been suppressed and his condition had improved somewhat, facing two martial artists of equal strength would certainly not be easy.Moreover, during the past three years, the two leaders of the Scorpion General's group had surely not been idle. They must have realized that many people were after their lives following the previous incident. Naturally, they would not have neglected their training and efforts to increase their strength.Xuan Mo nodded slightly.“I know. However, as long as they don't come together, I am still confident that I can deal with one of them.”He spoke calmly. Xuan Mo understood his own abilities quite well. Although his internal injuries had not fully recovered, he was sti

  • Chapter 96: The Red Scorpion Banner

    Long Tian observed the changes in his master's expression.He could tell that Xuan Mo was furious after hearing the woman's story. As a martial artist with a strong sense of justice, his master clearly could not tolerate such tyrannical behavior.Xuan Mo took a deep breath before asking.“Then what about the government? Have the local officials done nothing to stop these bandits? Isn't this city under the protection of the Han Empire?”The woman smiled bitterly.“How could we not hope for help from the government? We have submitted reports countless times. Several families of the victims have even sent people to request assistance. However, nothing has changed so far. The officials only tell us that they are still investigating the matter.”Xuan Mo furrowed his brows.He understood that not every sect possessed a large number of expert martial artists. Smaller sects, in particular, usually had only a handful of First-Class Warriors, while most of their disciples and elders were still
