Meteor Chasing the Moon Dies Tragically

As Ning Chuan carried his younger cousins towards Qingshi Town, Inside the Three Tiger Mountain's assembly hall, candlelight blazed, illuminating dozens of spirit tablets on the eight-immortal table.

The First Boss, his face etched with grief, led dozens of his subordinates, clad in mourning attire, kneeling and kowtowing before the spirits.

"My two sworn brothers, when we took our oath, we said we didn't seek to be born on the same day, month, and year, but only to die on the same day, month, and year. Who knew you two would be in such a hurry, leaving this brother behind? What am I to do now!"

"My two sworn brothers, and all my brethren, rest in peace. Your elder brother will avenge you!"

"I will personally bring the head of that brat Ning Chuan to offer to the souls of our brothers in heaven!"

That night, Ning Chuan wreaked havoc on Three Tiger Mountain. Although he wore a mask, a quick investigation afterward, upon discovering the two corpses in the prison, quickly led them to pinpoint Ning Chuan.

The First Boss wept bitterly, the bandits and thieves in the hall had red eyes, and all who heard were moved to tears.

After three more kowtows, he stood up and scanned the assembled minor bosses in the hall, saying, "Brothers, that scoundrel Ning Chuan killed two of our leaders on Three Tiger Mountain and slaughtered dozens of our brethren. This hatred is irreconcilable. Quickly gather our forces and follow me to kill Ning Chuan!"

"Kill Ning Chuan! Kill Ning Chuan!" The minor bosses roared in agreement.

"First Boss, wait a moment," a middle-aged scholar with a thin, three-stranded beard stepped forward.

"Strategist, what are your wise suggestions?" the First Boss asked urgently.

The middle-aged scholar stroked his beard and said, "Ning Chuan, this person, never showed any remarkable talent before. He didn't even resist when the Third Boss captured him and threw him in prison, which shows he's hiding his true strength."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The middle-aged scholar continued, "This person can come and go freely in our Three Tiger Mountain and easily kill two leaders. We don't know how much more strength he's hiding.

Moreover, he's so young and already so powerful. He might be a genius from some major power out for experience!"

At this point, everyone's expression turned grim.

The middle-aged scholar added, "If we pursue him rashly now, not only will we lose many brothers, but we might also offend a major power!"

"Please guide us, Strategist!" The First Boss bowed respectfully.

The middle-aged scholar was quite pleased and whispered something into the First Boss's ear.

The First Boss's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and he gave the scholar a thumbs-up, "Hahahaha... As expected of our Strategist, brilliant!"

Ning Chuan, carrying the big dog and Xiao Hua, rushed all the way and arrived at the entrance of Qingshi Town just as dusk was falling.

This time, entering the city with his younger siblings, he couldn't afford to cause trouble, so he paid the guards five copper coins.

Seeing Ning Chuan enter the city, several men in coarse cloth exchanged glances, their eyes flickering as they looked at the wanted posters nearby. One of them hurried away.

Ning Chuan was unaware that he was wanted and had been targeted.

He found an inn, rented a room, and coaxed the big dog and Xiao Hua to sleep.

Ning Chuan checked the system.

Host: Ning Chuan
Realm: Body Tempering 12th Level
Age: 16/140
Constitution: 124
Cultivation Method: Iron Shirt (Third Level Silver Tendon Realm)
Attribute Points: 0
Remaining Sign-in Times: 1, can sign in.

Ning Chuan finally noticed that, at some point, his lifespan had become 140 years.

In another world, he would already be considered a centenarian, and he felt a bit smug.

"One point of Constitution for one point of lifespan!"

"If I can increase my Constitution to one hundred million, one billion, ten billion, won't I achieve eternal life!"

Ning Chuan's heart burned with excitement, looking forward to a beautiful future.

"Let's sign in first! Bless me, Ancestral Master Sanqing, and Buddha Tathagata, I hope for an internal energy or movement technique!"

"Ding, Sign-in successful. You have obtained the cultivation method Meteor Chasing the Moon. Do you wish to learn it?"

Ning Chuan silently willed to learn, and a flood of information surged into his mind.

A superior hidden weapon technique. A flash of cold light appears, swift as a meteor chasing the moon. Upon seeing it, one loses their life and soul, hence it is called Meteor Chasing the Moon!

Hidden weapons are divided into nine levels. Each increase in level doubles the power and increases the number of hidden weapons that can be thrown at once by one.

After receiving the information, Ning Chuan felt as if he had practiced for many years. His hidden weapon techniques were at his fingertips, extremely proficient, leaving only the cultivation of the technique's realm to be improved.

"Good, good, good, what a powerful hidden weapon technique!

And hidden weapons are also good, and they can be used without internal energy!"

"Just the introduction to this technique makes me incredibly eager!"

Ning Chuan was overjoyed.

"Now, with the triple-layered Iron Shirt for defense and brute strength 124 times that of an ordinary person for offense, once I master projectile techniques, I'll solve my short-range problem and won't have to worry about being kited anymore."

Next, Ning Chuan dismantled the tables, chairs, and benches in the room, cut them into thumb-sized pieces with his knife, opened a window, and began practicing in the room.

Several hours later, Ning Chuan's room was empty. Even Da Gou and Xiao Hua had moved to sleep on the floor, the bed having been cut into small pieces and used as projectiles.

As expected, gaining Constitution is the key to conquering the world. With the 124-fold increase in Constitution came a 124-fold boost in comprehension, and he practiced Meteor Chasing the Moon to the third level.

Ning Chuan flicked his finger, and a small piece of wood shot into the night sky.

As soon as the wood left his hand, it suddenly appeared several dozen feet away.

In the blink of an eye, it completely disappeared into the darkness.

"What a powerful projectile technique. If it were used against me, I wouldn't be able to dodge it!"

Ning Chuan marveled repeatedly. His strength had increased greatly again, and he began to harbor ambitions.

"I wonder about Lord Leng, and Xiao Lian… hehe… hold them down… force them…"

Alas, he was thinking too far ahead. A true man should be down-to-earth, not indulging in fantasies behind closed doors…" Ning Chuan quickly pulled his thoughts back.

For some reason, as his Constitution increased, he felt a surge of heat within him, and his thoughts became more numerous.

Just then, "Huh? What's that noise outside?" Ning Chuan looked down from the second floor.

The inn was surrounded!

In the surrounding buildings, on the ground, and in the streets, hundreds of people were lying in ambush.

There were burly men from the Town Defense Camp, each armed with a simple saber and radiating killing intent.

There were also people in uniform, very much like the constables in his past life's movies. Could they be officers from the county's Inspectorate?

And there were some people carrying swords on their backs and holding swords in their arms. Were they martial artists from the jianghu?

Wait, there were even soldiers in armor, carrying powerful bows and crossbows. He hadn't heard of any garrison in Qingshi Town!

"Such a large force deployed… could there be a notorious bandit staying in this inn?"

"Could it be?…"

Ning Chuan's heart skipped a beat. "I killed ten people from the Joint Defense Camp outside the city. Could I have been discovered? Am I the notorious bandit they're looking for?"

Ning Chuan considered it, and it was indeed possible.

Regardless of the era, killing over a dozen people was no small matter.

He quickly woke up Da Gou and Xiao Hua. The two little ones rubbed their eyes. "Brother, what's wrong?"

"Brother is going to fight bad guys later. You two be good and don't cause trouble!"

"Yay, yay!" Hearing that their brother was going to fight bad guys, the two little ones became excited.

Ning Chuan took apart the bedsheet and tied the two little ones securely on his back, side by side.

Thus, two curious little heads poked out from Ning Chuan's shoulders, looking somewhat comical and somewhat adorable.

Just then, a general in silver armor shouted towards the inn, "Listen up, everyone inside!

The City Guard, the Inspectorate, and the Joint Defense Camp, along with martial heroes from the jianghu, are here to apprehend a fierce bandit!

Those inside, come out one by one and submit to investigation!

Those who disobey will be killed on the spot!"
