Senior Sister, Let Me Do It!

Chapter 16: Senior Sister, Let Me!

A hidden corner.

Lu Chen's face showed contemplation as he looked at the panel before him.

Since it was late after his actions last night, he didn't head to Canglang Martial Hall immediately. Instead, he found a corner in the city and rested for the night.

Now, with the sky bright, he looked at the panel and a thought suddenly surfaced.

He already had six martial arts techniques at their peak. He wondered if he could fuse them.

Perhaps by fusing them, he could create a third-rate martial art.

Aren't all martial arts created by people? [Do you wish to spend 200 Merit Points to fuse martial arts?]

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, a line of text suddenly appeared.

Lu Chen's expression slightly froze.

Then, he immediately thought silently.

"Consume!"

Swish!

The next moment, the panel before him began to blur rapidly.

The six martial arts seemed to be rearranging, countless pieces of knowledge rapidly merging and deducing automatically. Simultaneously, new sets of martial arts knowledge appeared in his mind, dense and filling his neural pathways.

About three to five minutes passed.

Everything finally calmed down.

[Martial Art Name: Four Absolute Martial Arts]

[Rank: Third-Rate] [Mastery: Peak]

A new line of text appeared before his eyes.

Lu Chen's eyes lit up.

It really worked?

The fusion was successful?

He looked at the panel again.

Name: Lu Chen

Cultivation: Third Rank (3%)

Cultivation Method: None

Martial Arts: Four Absolute Martial Arts (Peak)

Talents: Convince with Virtue, Bronze Skin Iron Bones

Merit Points: 290

The entire panel had drastically changed.

Even his cultivation had changed again, officially entering the Third Rank. As for the origin of the name "Four Absolute Martial Arts," it was simple.

It encompassed four ultimate techniques: fist, palm, claw, and saber.

A power he had never felt before surged into Lu Chen's heart.

"Just as I predicted, the previous low-grade martial arts could no longer keep up with my physical condition. To improve my realm, I must rely on reputable martial arts, and even cultivation methods!"

His heart surged.

He had only just fused a third-rate martial art, and his realm had already reached Third Rank.

If he could obtain a cultivation method, he might be able to directly reach Fourth Rank!

He felt an even greater urgency to head to Canglang Martial Hall. Without further delay, he flashed and quickly left the area.

As soon as he left, he noticed that the entire city was filled with soldiers.

At the same time, a lot of news was spreading. All of it concerned the bloody incident in the southern city last night.

When he heard that the yamen had arrested over a thousand people, labeled them as rioters, accused him of inciting the mob to rebel, and demanded he surrender himself immediately, threatening to execute all the rioters if he didn't, Lu Chen's heart turned cold.

"They're asking for death!"

This yamen had truly reached the point of resorting to any means to achieve their goals.

To force him to reveal himself, they had arrested so many people.

However, at the same time, he heard another piece of news.

"Did you hear? Yesterday, over thirty people had their blood drained and turned into mummies. They say that Lu Chen did it."

"What? Thirty people had their blood drained? That's impossible, right?"

"This is new information from the yamen. They say that Lu Chen is insane. Not only is he skilled at inciting rebellion, but he also secretly drinks human blood, consuming over a dozen people every day. He's no longer a normal human, but a true demon."

"No way?"

"How could that not happen? Those shriveled corpses are all at the yamen now. Anyone who doesn't believe it can go take a look..."

The crowd was shocked.

If they had felt exhilarated by Lu Chen's actions before, then now, most people felt a bit of fear.

After all, this was literally sucking blood!

Lu Chen couldn't help but frown.

Sucking human blood?

Who was framing him like this?

To pin such a label on him?

It seemed the situation in the city was far beyond his expectations.

However, he still needed to get his hands on a cultivation method as soon as possible...

Canglang Martial Hall.

In the spacious courtyard.

Several gaunt disciples appeared before a woman in black tight-fitting clothing.

"Senior Sister, this can't go on. Some disciples left the martial hall again today."

"Yeah, Senior Sister, we need to think of a solution..."

"Rising Sun Martial Hall's pressure on us is intensifying. If this continues, we really won't be able to hold on."

The new Hall Master, Su Yingxue, looked at the disciples before her with a pained expression.

They were once the mighty Canglang Martial Hall. Ever since her father died, under the pressure from Rising Sun Martial Hall, their support dwindled. Disciples left one after another. Now, only a handful remained.

The entire martial hall was practically defunct. Even she had been repeatedly bullied by Rising Sun Martial Hall, who came to her door demanding she hand over the sect's core cultivation methods.

She could resist for a while, but not forever.

Without a true master guarding the martial hall, their Canglang Martial Hall was like a three-year-old child holding gold in a busy marketplace. Countless people were coveting them in secret, wanting to obtain their cultivation methods.

For this reason, she had gone to the streets several times to recruit masters, hoping to find some powerful individuals to guard the martial hall.

But unfortunately, as soon as they heard she had offended Rising Sun Martial Hall, no one dared to come.

Even those who did come were only coveting her cultivation methods and trying to trick her into giving them away.

"Have I really reached this point, unable to even protect my own sect's cultivation methods?"

Su Yingxue murmured inwardly.

"Senior Sister, I heard that Rising Sun Martial Hall's Young Hall Master is dead. Their Hall Master, Zhao Hu, has been in a frenzy these past few days. He might personally make a move against you."

A junior disciple said worriedly.

"Make a move against me personally? Zhao Hu only won against my father last time by cheating, which led to my father's tragic death. If he's so eager to attack me this time, I'm afraid his friends in the martial world won't let him off easily."

Su Yingxue sneered.

Zhao Hu was, after all, a martial hall master with a large establishment and a reputation in the martial world.

He had secretly cheated to win against her father in their previous match, and now he was impatiently targeting a weak woman like herself. Once this got out, it would give others an excuse.

If you, Zhao Hu, can forcibly seize others' cultivation methods, then why can't others use their strength to seize yours?

Zhao Hu would never dare to cross this bottom line of the martial world. "However, he won't dare to attack me in the short term. I'm afraid in the long run, he'll still act in secret..."

A hint of worry appeared in Su Yingxue's eyes. "Finding a master, how can it be so easy?"

Whoosh!

Just then.

A figure instantly landed in the courtyard behind them without any warning.

Dressed in black clothes and a black robe, with a fair complexion and not looking very old.

"I can help you deal with Zhao Hu."

The person suddenly spoke.

Su Yingxue was startled and quickly turned around.

Who?

How could someone land behind her so silently?

The other disciples were also greatly surprised and looked up. They were so focused on talking to their Senior Sister that they hadn't noticed anyone appearing in the courtyard.

"You are..."

Su Yingxue's pupils contracted. Looking at the figure, she instantly recognized the face and exclaimed, "Lu Chen, you're that Lu Chen?"

Yesterday, Lu Chen's wanted poster had been plastered all over the city.

She had naturally seen it.

But she never imagined this person would actually appear inside her own martial hall.

"What?"

Everyone around her was shocked, a chill running down their spines.

The Lu Chen who had committed countless crimes and killed innumerable people?

And they said he was possessed by a Yao and Mo, that he had drunk the blood of over thirty people last night... and he was actually inside the martial hall?
