He's So Hard, Really Hard!

When Yu Ruyi came in carrying a skinning knife, Coconut stopped crying, her face turning deathly pale. Yixian's expression changed just as drastically.

She swayed toward them with alluring grace, revealing a broad expanse of cleavage before Hanyu. Hooking his chin lightly with her little finger, she breathed like an orchid, "Big sister will be gentle in a moment. Bear with it, little brother."

Hanyu looked at those enormous twin hemispheres, swallowed, then raised his eyes and gave her a bitter smile. "Can't we not skin it?"

Yu Ruyi smiled seductively and began gesturing with the knife.

"Of course not. If you don't like big sister doing it herself, then my husband has no sense of restraint. You'll suffer even more."

As she spoke, she began undoing Hanyu's clothes with practiced ease. Yu Ruyi's coquettish laughter sounded by his ear. "Did you know? Taking off a man's clothes is a woman's natural talent."

Coconut listened from the side, her ears burning red. Ashamed and terrified, she shut her eyes.

Behind them, Yixian stared blankly at Yu Ruyi's pear-mountain-like ample rear. Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his shoulder blade. Turning his head, he saw that Coconut had somehow wriggled over and was furiously biting down on his shoulder blade.

Only after he sheepishly turned back and shut his eyes did Coconut finally let him go.

By now, Hanyu had been stripped completely naked, and the icy blade kept wandering across his lower abdomen.

As though searching for a place to begin, Yu Ruyi gave a soft laugh when her jade-white hand settled lightly over his navel.

"Big sister is starting now."

At those words, Hanyu had yet to react, but Yixian and Coconut beside him had already curled into trembling balls.

The blade lightly scraped across his belly, leaving behind a pale mark. Yu Ruyi's expression turned strange.

"Why is your skin so hard?"

Looking at the white mark, Hanyu felt completely reassured. He grinned. "I'm a rough man. It's normal for my skin to be a little thick."

Yu Ruyi frowned and pressed down slightly harder with the hand holding the knife. Yet wherever the blade passed, it still left only faint marks, unable even to break his skin.

At that moment, Hanyu realized that strength was gradually returning to his limbs. The drug in that smoke that left people weak and powerless must have been wearing off.

Yu Ruyi, unwilling to accept this, tried cutting open different places. It was the same every time—she could not harm him in the slightest.

"Hubby, come here for a moment. He's so hard."

Yu Ruyi raised her head and shouted loudly outside.

"Then put some strength into it."

Qi Tiangao's lazy voice drifted in.

Yu Ruyi frowned, reversed her grip on the knife, and viciously stabbed it toward Hanyu's lower abdomen.

Clang!

Instead of the sound of flesh being pierced, a corner of the blade flew off.

As if she had seen a ghost, Yu Ruyi turned around and cried out toward the outside.

"Hubby, hurry over! He's really hard! It's too damn strange!"

Once Hanyu felt his strength return, he clenched his fist and seized the opportunity to throw a punch. Just as Yu Ruyi turned back without any guard up, his massive fist struck her chest.

A tremendous force sent Yu Ruyi flying heavily away. Hanyu hurriedly scooped up his clothes from the floor. Before he even had time to put them on, he lowered his head, smashed through the wall, and fled for his life.

When Qi Tiangao chased inside, all he saw was Yu Ruyi lying on the ground in agony, clutching the huge burdens on her chest. Hanyu was already gone.

After sprinting desperately for several miles along the mountain road without stopping, Hanyu looked back and saw no one chasing him. He hastily found a large tree, hid beneath it, and put on his clothes.

He had never imagined that sixty years of cultivation all tempered into his body could make him this powerful. His very first strike had carried such force—whether it was being impervious to blades or smashing through a wall with ease.

When he had crashed through that wall just now, it had felt as flimsy as paper. Even he had not expected such a powerful body.

Hanyu raised his hand and looked at the fist he had used to strike just now. Its force had been considerable too.

If she hadn't cheated with that huge cushion, my punch backed by sixty years of power might have made her cough blood on the spot.

Mm, it had felt pretty good too.

Hanyu's heart stirred, but he quickly came back to himself. He had escaped, but there were still those two unlucky bastards inside.

Should he notify cultivators to surround and suppress them?

Or report it to the authorities?

It seemed neither would be fast enough. By the time anyone arrived, those two unlucky bastards would probably have already been led away like cattle or sheep by some farming family.

Ruyi Inn.

Qi Tiangao hauled a carriage out from the stables and pulled it to the inn entrance. Yu Ruyi sat at the table with a gloomy face, rubbing the huge burden on her chest.

"Damn little bastard, you just had to hit me there. It hurts like hell."

Yixian and Coconut lay side by side on the floor, their mouths stuffed with rags. When Qi Tiangao entered, he glanced at them.

"We need to leave quickly. After that little bastard escaped, cultivators and government men will soon come to surround and suppress us."

After saying that, he pulled out a butcher's knife from his waist and slowly walked toward the two.

"What are you doing?"

Yu Ruyi stepped forward and stopped him.

Qi Tiangao said in a muffled voice, "Since we're going to be on the run anyway, there's no use keeping them. We might as well slaughter them."

The two on the floor turned deathly pale at his words. They shook their heads desperately, making muffled cries through the rags in their mouths.

Yu Ruyi slapped the knife aside, then angrily kicked him with her little foot. Dissatisfied, she said, "You don't run the household, so you don't know how costly rice and firewood are. Bring these two along. Once we find a new place, we can sell them."

Qi Tiangao silently put away the knife, grabbed one in each hand, and strode outside.

Yu Ruyi lifted her head and looked around the inn. In the end, she felt somewhat reluctant to leave. She had operated this place for several years, yet now she had to change locations all over again.

Thinking of it made her grit her silver teeth. It was all because of that little bastard.

Yixian and Coconut were treated like cargo. Qi Tiangao tossed them directly into the carriage, one on each side, then ignored them. After he turned and went back into the inn, a furtive shadow suddenly crawled out from beneath the carriage.

After lifting the curtain and jumping inside, Hanyu quickly made a silencing gesture and lowered his voice. "Don't make a sound. Once I loosen you up, run immediately."

"Mmmpf!"

"Mmmpf!"

The two shook their heads desperately.

"I said don't make a sound."

Hanyu frowned and whispered. Then he suddenly felt a chill around his butt, and at the same time noticed the two staring behind him in terror.

When he turned around, Yu Ruyi stood there with a dark expression, vigorously slashing at his backside with that skinning knife.

Luckily, his butt was fine, but his trousers had been cut to shreds. At that moment, he was essentially bare-assed.

"You dare come back!"

Yu Ruyi was so angry that her chest trembled. Hanyu had no mind to admire how the waves surged now. He quickly grabbed one person in each hand, smashed through the carriage compartment, and fled.

"Hubby, come quickly!"

After Yu Ruyi shouted at the top of her lungs, she immediately chased after him.

Hanyu was already inconvenienced by carrying the two of them. When he looked back, he was startled out of his wits.

Yu Ruyi rode through the air atop a ribbon of red silk. Further behind her, Qi Tiangao stood on his butcher's knife, flying even faster.

How could two running legs ever outrun people who could fly? After running a short while longer, Hanyu gritted his teeth and decisively stopped, then forcefully tore apart the restraints on their hands.

"Figure out how to undo the rest yourselves."

With that, he charged toward Qi Tiangao, who had caught up from behind. Qi Tiangao had already been flying at tremendous speed, and when he saw Hanyu rush toward him, he gave a cold laugh.

"Laugh at your mother!"

Hanyu roared and leaped with all his strength. His body shot over thirty feet into the air, and he drove his head toward Qi Tiangao's lower abdomen.

Qi Tiangao had clearly underestimated just how iron-hard Hanyu's head was. In midair, he withdrew the butcher's knife from beneath his feet, gripped it with both hands, and chopped down with all his might.

Clang!

The gleaming blade struck Hanyu's head and actually rang like metal striking stone. A huge rebounding force traveled up the blade and shook Qi Tiangao's tiger's mouth. The butcher's knife instantly flew from his grasp.

But Hanyu's momentum did not stop, and he slammed viciously into Qi Tiangao's jaw.

The two crashed down at the same time. Hanyu lay sprawled on the ground with stars filling his vision, while Qi Tiangao's jaw had shattered. Blood filled his mouth, and every time he opened it, blood poured out.

"You deserve to die!"

Yu Ruyi flew over in hatred, thrusting the skinning knife viciously toward Hanyu's eyes.

Hanyu did not dare gamble on whether his eyes were hard enough. He scrambled up, seized the hand holding the knife, and flipped over onto her.

Though soft warmth lay beneath him, Hanyu did not dare lose focus for even an instant. He forcefully pressed Yu Ruyi down.

The two figures tumbled as they fell, quickly hitting the ground and rolling into a heap.

Qi Tiangao had found his butcher's knife again and came charging over, brimming with murderous intent!

Not to complain, but I checked the statistics for my book—why is the peak reading time from 4 to 6 in the morning? Brothers, don't stay up this late. This kind of schedule is painful! I've already got heatiness and a toothache right now.
