Chapter 2

He watched as the Three-Foot Qi Wall knocked all the long needles to the ground.

Jiang Mu Ming was extremely satisfied as well. It truly lived up to the signature move of the legendary figure from the Jin Yong World, the Nameless Sweeping Monk.

As long as he raised this Three-Foot Qi Wall, no hidden weapon could likely hurt him in the slightest.

That meant that in the future, even if he faced people from the Tang Sect—

He did not need to worry too much.

After testing the power of the Three-Foot Qi Wall, Jiang Mu Ming took a small sip of fine wine and continued reading through the books.

He said with little concern, "With skills as poor as yours, what are you fighting and killing for? Why not sit down and keep me company while I read?"

"Otherwise, you'll throw your lives away for nothing."

Jiang Mu Ming was not exaggerating. This world was fraught with danger and filled with countless experts.

The Four Great Realms were the Adamantine Mortal Realm, the Free Earth Realm, the Carefree Heaven Realm, and the Profound Spirit Realm. Only upon reaching the Carefree Heaven Realm could one claim to have enough strength to protect oneself in this world.

At least, one could influence certain matters.

Yet even the strongest among them, Young Master Zhuo Mo Lei Mengsha, had only reached the Free Earth Realm.

And he had yet to reach its peak.

As for Golden Mouth Yama, Granny Needle, and the others, they had only just entered the Free Earth Realm.

"May I ask who you are?"

"But no matter who you are, are you sure you want to involve yourself in the Yan Family's affairs?"

Golden Mouth Yama issued a threat.

In the Southwest Dao, the Yan Family and the Gu Family were practically local emperors.

Any ordinary person would be frightened enough to go weak in the knees just hearing their names.

The Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng before them were both people the Yan Family wanted dead. They refused to believe that Jiang Mu Ming would not be afraid!

"Oh?" Jiang Mu Ming lowered the book in his hand and looked at Golden Mouth Yama.

An extremely powerful pressure instantly surged through the other man's entire body, shooting straight toward his crown!

In only a moment, he was drenched in sweat!

"I said, you can fight your fight while I read mine. We can simply leave each other in peace."

Jiang Mu Ming suddenly rose to his feet.

Word by word, he said, "Why do you insist on dragging me into this?"

As far as Jiang Mu Ming was concerned—

He had already escaped Beyond Heaven's headquarters, so he no longer needed to have as many reservations as before.

He could openly display his strength.

Moreover, now that the plot had unfolded and figures from all sides had gathered together, Yue Fengcheng likely had no time to keep an eye on him.

By the time the other side found the time—

Jiang Mu Ming's strength would have already undergone earth-shaking changes.

What did he have to fear?

Seeing Jiang Mu Ming rise, faint hostility leaking from him, Golden Mouth Yama and Granny Needle immediately felt as though they were facing a great enemy.

They instinctively took a step back.

They had never imagined that they would inadvertently provoke such a formidable enemy.

"What are you afraid of? The entire street is filled with our people."

"Kill him!"

The crowd exchanged glances, and courage immediately welled up within them. After all, aside from Golden Mouth Yama and Granny Needle—

They also had the Oil Seller, Little Xi Shi, and the others.

Even Manager Xiao was on his way there.

In an instant—

The Oil Seller launched all Eighteen Swords from his hands, sending them straight toward Jiang Mu Ming, while Golden Mouth Yama came at him with a Bone Cleaver imbued with tremendous blood aura.

Their vicious aura was fully exposed!

All four of them unleashed their ultimate moves in quick succession, bringing out their signature skills.

"Hey, hey, this young master is still here!"

Nearby, Lei Mengsha hurriedly stepped forward to block one of them when he saw the group surrounding Jiang Mu Ming.

"You damned spendthrift!"

Although Baili Dongjun knew nothing of martial arts, he was a man of loyalty.

He hurriedly pulled Sikong Changfeng along, wanting to help Jiang Mu Ming.

Yet Jiang Mu Ming, standing in the center of the crowd, still wore a completely unhurried expression, as though even Mount Tai collapsing before him could not make him panic.

"Fifteen years... I read twenty-nine thousand nine hundred and seventy-one volumes in the library..."

"With just you people, you think you can kill me?!"

All these years, Jiang Mu Ming had been reading in Beyond Heaven's library, gaining one harvest after another. How could his strength be shaken by people like Golden Mouth Yama?

They were merely ants trying to shake a tree!

Jiang Mu Ming waved his hand, and an invisible burst of force shot out.

The Oil Seller was the first to be sent flying thirty yards away.

He crashed heavily into a wall, stirring up a cloud of dust. Along the way, the bluestone-paved street split apart completely.

His life or death was unknown.

Then, three throwing knives suddenly appeared in Jiang Mu Ming's hand.

These were no ordinary throwing knives.

They were the world-famous Little Li Flying Dagger! They never missed!

In the past few years, Jiang Mu Ming had not only obtained the technique for the Little Li Flying Dagger through reading, but had also obtained the throwing knives themselves.

Now was the perfect time to test the power of the Little Li Flying Dagger.

When the Little Li Flying Dagger appeared, the remaining three all felt themselves locked onto by a powerful mental force.

It was as if the heavens were watching them!

They had the feeling that there was no way to escape and no way to dodge, no matter what they did!

"What kind of knife is this?" Granny Needle felt boundless terror bearing down on her. She had spent her entire life using hidden weapons, yet only now did she understand the highest realm of hidden weapons.

It was the knife before her eyes!

It had appeared so plainly before everyone, without the slightest concealment.

Yet it gave them the feeling that this knife would inevitably hit its target, no matter what.

It was a conviction!

Once the knife was thrown, it would certainly strike!

This was the supreme realm of hidden weapons!

"It will definitely hit... We will definitely die..."

This thought inexplicably flashed through the minds of everyone present. The next moment, the knife moved like lightning. In the blink of an eye, all three throwing knives were embedded in the three men's foreheads!

The three men widened their eyes.

It was as if, before death, they still wanted to see the trajectory of the throwing knives clearly.

Yet they could only watch helplessly as the knives sank into their own foreheads!

"The Little Li Flying Dagger truly lives up to its reputation."

Jiang Mu Ming sat down in satisfaction. After this test, he could confirm that below the Carefree Heaven Realm, no one could escape his throwing knives.

Even experts in the Carefree Heaven Realm would certainly be hit. It was simply uncertain whether the knives could injure their vital points.

"Holy crap! What kind of knife is that?"

Lei Mengsha nearly jumped to his feet. Facing that single knife, he felt that he would undoubtedly die!

And the other man did not even look very old.

Yet in terms of strength, he had completely crushed Lei Mengsha!

Against those people just now, Lei Mengsha could only defeat them one-on-one.

But against the person before him, killing them had been a matter of merely a few knives!

What level of strength was that?

Moreover, the other man was still young. His future strength was even more boundless!

It was only strange that such a person had not made a name for himself.

There had never been anyone like this in the martial world before!

Sikong Changfeng was also shocked.

Before that heaven-shaking, ghost-frightening strike—

He, too, had nowhere to run!
