I'm Just Making Up The Exercises, My Disciple, Have You Really Mastered Them?

Chapter 18: A Top Expert in the Martial World, Defeated with One Punch!

Xu Yan rode a tall horse and left the city, with two large packages hanging on the horse's back. One contained precious medicinal herbs for cultivation, while the other held the valuable skin of a Red-Eyed Tiger.

"Xu Yan, the foolish young master of the Xu family, is off to seek a master again."

"Judging by the looks of it, he's brought generous gifts to visit a master."

As Xu Yan rode past, discussions broke out.

The richest family's idiotic son is going to seek a master again.

For a while, it became the talk of the town among the people in the county.

Xu Yan paid no attention to these comments; he was proud in his heart.

A group of narrow-minded people, how could they understand the vastness of the world?

After leaving the city, Xu Yan immediately noticed that his family's guards were secretly following him. His parents must be worried about his safety and had sent the guards to protect him.

These guards were too weak. With his strength, if they encountered any danger, not only would they be unable to save him, they would probably be killed at first sight.

After traveling a dozen miles from the city, Xu Yan spurred his horse and quickly entered a forest. Using a little technique, he easily shook off the guards from his family.

Once he confirmed that no one was following him, Xu Yan returned to the small village.

His master disliked being disturbed, so he couldn't let anyone know where his master was hiding and disturb his peace.

The small town outside the mountain village was already in sight. Xu Yan planned to take a rest in the town before heading into the mountains to the small village.

Suddenly, a figure rushed from behind, leaped into the air, and landed steadily in front of the horse, blocking the way.

Xu Yan frowned. Judging from the agility of the person, he was a top expert in the martial world. It seemed that the person who came was not friendly.

"Hehe, Xu family's kid, I've finally found you. I won't waste words. Drop the medicinal herbs, and I'll spare your life!"

The person blocking the way was around forty years old, with legs and arms that were different from ordinary people. They were longer and thicker, but his torso appeared small and seemed out of proportion. He looked thin and tall.

Xu Yan, sitting on the horse, looked down at the person with a contemptuous expression. "You? You're seeking death!"

The thin and tall man's eyes flashed with cold light as he leaped into the air and attacked Xu Yan's face with a palm strike.

Xu Yan, sitting on the horse, didn't even furrow his brows. Feeling the power of the strike, he didn't take it seriously at all.

In the Kingdom of Qi, Martial Artists could split stones and break boulders, which was impressive to ordinary people. However, for Xu Yan, who had come into contact with true Martial Dao, these were just ordinary martial arts.

The upper limit was too low, and the destructive power was weak.

Although he hadn't yet entered the realm of Martial Dao, he had already undergone five bone transformations and was not far from refining true golden bones.

How could the power of Qi and blood be compared to that of a mere first-rate Martial Artist?

Even if he stood still and let the other person attack with knives and axes, Xu Yan was confident that he would come out unscathed.

Facing the palm strike from the thin and tall man, Xu Yan coldly shouted, "Get lost!"

He raised his hand and threw a punch.

Their fists collided.

The thin and tall man's face immediately changed drastically. His palm strike seemed as fragile as paper, instantly crumbling. The tremendous force directly shattered his arm.

The punch didn't stop and directly hit the thin and tall man's chest.

The thin and tall man was sent flying, his chest caved in, his bones shattered, and his internal organs turned to mush. He died on the spot.

One punch killed a top expert in the martial world. Xu Yan revealed an excited expression.

Too weak!

Just like a grasshopper, killed with one punch.

He didn't even use much strength.

"This is true Martial Dao!"

Xu Yan's eyes were filled with fanaticism. Although he had not yet achieved the level of a Golden Bone and had not even entered the realm of Martial Dao, the top experts under his command were as fragile as paper, showing a stark contrast.

"If I can enter the realm of Martial Dao, I will be invincible in the entire Qi Kingdom. Facing ten thousand enemies will be a piece of cake!"

"Even the lofty emperor is nothing!"

At this moment, Xu Yan's blood was boiling, his eyes were filled with fanaticism, and his determination to cultivate grew stronger.

"I must enter the realm within a year, truly become a disciple of a master, and cultivate the supreme Martial Dao!"

After killing a top expert who blocked his way with a single punch, Xu Yan continued on his journey.

"I can't leave any traces. I can't ride this horse, as it will be easily tracked."

Xu Yan pondered and dismounted.

Looking at the nearby mountains and forests, he hesitated for a moment and came up with an idea.

He immediately bent down and carried the horse on his back.

Horse: ???

Xu Yan carried the horse and strode into the mountains, taking a detour to erase any traces along the way, before heading towards a small village to avoid being tracked.

It wasn't until he passed through the Evil Spirit Forest that he finally put the horse down, mounted it again, and hurried towards the small village.

...

Xu Yan finally returned, bringing a large package of medicinal herbs.

What made Li Xuan even happier was the huge tiger skin.

Looking at the colorful pattern, Li Xuan could almost confirm that it was the evil tiger from the Evil Spirit Forest!

The threat of the Evil Spirit Forest had finally been eliminated, and he had avenged the people who died tragically in the village.

"Master, I killed the Red-eyed Tiger in the Evil Spirit Forest without causing any major disturbances."

Xu Yan respectfully said.

"Good! Well done!"

Li Xuan was delighted in his heart and praised Xu Yan's performance on this trip.

"Master is finally satisfied with my performance. Now that I have transformed my bones five times, I am not far from refining my Golden Bone. Master must also think that my Bone Refining speed is good, right?"

Xu Yan was overjoyed by the praise.

"It's all thanks to Master's guidance!"

Li Xuan held the tiger skin in his hand and liked it more and more. This tiger skin was quite valuable and could be used as a family heirloom.

This foolish disciple was reliable when it came to handling tasks.

Thinking this way, Li Xuan encouraged him, "Practice well, ponder deeply, and you will surely achieve something."

"Yes, Master! I will not let you down!"

Xu Yan was extremely excited.

Seeing his excited appearance, Li Xuan sighed in his heart. This foolish disciple was so easy to deceive. A little encouragement was enough to make him feel like he was on fire.

"Very good, I believe in you, my disciple!"

Li Xuan nodded and continued, "The grass in the vegetable garden has grown again. You should remove it."

With his foolish disciple back, it was time to clean up the accumulated weeds in the vegetable garden.

With someone to take care of things, life could be leisurely and carefree again.

"Huh?"

Xu Yan was taken aback. He had just returned, so why did he have to remove the grass?

Li Xuan's face turned serious as he said, "I see that your mind is restless. Removing the grass will help you calm your mind and is beneficial for your comprehension and cultivation!"

"Yes, Master! I understand!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yan suddenly realized and felt somewhat ashamed, "Master often teaches me to be calm and composed, to avoid arrogance and impatience. After killing a top expert with a single punch, I became restless."

"This shouldn't have happened!"

"Master has keen insight and can see that my state of mind is restless. He asked me to remove the grass and calm my mind, to settle down and be more efficient in Bone Refining!"

Just as Xu Yan had returned, he was sent to remove the grass. Li Xuan sighed and lamented that this foolish disciple was so easily fooled.
