This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick! Chapter 85 – Chapter 85: Chapter 85 Execution Order

Chapter 85: Chapter 85 Execution Order

If we say that the Embryo Cultivation Stage is akin to ten months of pregnancy, during which one only needs to take care and provide sufficient nutrition,

then the Body Breaking Stage is like nurturing a baby until they grow into a strong, muscular man.

This process requires much more time and energy than the Embryo Cultivation Stage.

In less than a month, breaking from the early stage to the middle stage of Body Breaking, such speed would be considered unparalleled even among the top twelve universities!

“No wonder the teacher said that cultivating through breaking the Heart Barrier would greatly increase the speed of achieving breakthroughs.”

Li Fei was sprinting through the heavy rain, sensing the changes in the Steel Armor Implant inside his body.

Breaking into the middle stage of Body Breaking meant that his physical condition would further improve, and the number of Blood Souls would continue to increase.

Emotions could influence the growth of the Implant, and today he truly felt it.

When thoughts are clear and the power of intent strengthens, it accelerates the growth of the Implant.

This ‘Breakthrough' method of cultivation is difficult yet simple in its own way.

The difficulty lies in achieving clarity of thought, while the simplicity rests in solving psychological issues—once those are handled, all other problems will resolve themselves, and the speed of breakthrough will be much faster than traditional cultivation!

Hao Yi told Li Fei that in this era, among a hundred martial artists who cultivate using the ‘Breakthrough' method, not even one can be found, and even fewer succeed.

This is because this era is full of rules and obstructions everywhere, countless invisible barriers bind people and prevent them from acting freely.

How easy is it to achieve clarity of thought?

Li Fei had no intentions of becoming a moral saint, nor did he plan to become a hero riding wrongs in the future or take it upon himself to eradicate evil from this world.

He was very aware of his limitations and knew that he couldn't change the world alone.

Thus, what he sought was merely two words: ‘thrill.'

This mission was triggered by the incident involving Feng Zhenshan, forcing Li Fei to confront a thorn in his heart that had always been there—the Tiger Saber Gang.

If he was outraged because of Feng Zhenshan, why then did he not dare to act against the Tiger Saber Gang, instead choosing to keep up appearances with them?

In fact, Li Fei had considered staying in the shadows and ‘developing' like before, waiting until his power was strong enough to wipe out the whole Tiger Saber Gang with a wave of his hand—wouldn't that be better?

But as advantageous as that might be, there was one thing wrong—it wasn't thrilling.

In his previous life, he had endured within the system for over a decade, only to die suddenly in the end.

Living again, with strong power and the advantage of the Myriad Blood Pearl, yet still choosing to endure, what was the point?

Had he not endured enough in his whole life to have a thrilling experience?

Cautiousness was not in Li Fei's nature; otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to write that whistleblower letter in his previous life.

If he could choose to keep calm and endure this time, even if he later became truly invincible, he wouldn't care to deal with the Tiger Saber Gang or any other evil.

Now, having struck the Tiger Saber Gang's Master with a sword, killing one of their top swordsmen, Li Fei felt as though the thorn in his heart had been partially extracted.

It was very thrilling!

The heavy rain poured, and the world was a vast, white expanse.

The young man in a black martial robe ran freely through the rain.

…

“Smash!”

Inside the residence of the Gang Leader of the Tiger Saber Gang, Yu Hu slammed his favorite Green Glaze Octagonal Cup onto the ground, shattering it.

Since the Tiger Saber Gang had dominated Xing City and become the top gang, he had rarely been this furious.

In front of him, the gang's Master, Zhang Mingze, his head wrapped in gauze, was lying on the bed, barely alive.

Outside this room, several martial artists who had followed Zhang Mingze to Qingyuan Fist Village were kneeling in the courtyard, soaked by the rain.

“Gang Leader.”

A doctor who had just finished examining Zhang Mingze stood up, cautiously looking at Yu Hu.

“How is it?”

Yu Hu's gaze was intense, putting tremendous pressure on the doctor.

“Gang Leader, Master Zhang's heart and lungs have suffered severe damage, as if injured by a very special type of Innate Qi, causing the flesh to wither and life to fade.”

The doctor reported the findings.

He was a physician maintained by the Tiger Saber Gang, a highly skilled practitioner specializing in treating various injuries caused to martial artists and even martial masters.

Yu Hu furrowed his brow, “Is there any way to save him?”

“This…”

“Speak frankly!”

“Yes, please forgive this old man's incompetence, the injury is difficult to heal. If it weren't for Master Zhang's strong physique and the Wood Attribute Implant endowed with the greatest Life Force, he probably would have died on the spot. I can only use medicine to temporarily sustain Master Zhang's life, but whether he can pull through in the end is up to him.”

…

Yu Hu was silent; he unconsciously clenched his fist, a powerful force enveloping the entire courtyard, making everyone around feel suffocated!

“Alright, do your best.”

“Yes.”

Yu Hu walked out of the room, not even glancing at the subordinates kneeling in the rain outside. He sat on a Taishi Chair in the main hall and turned his head to ask the person who had just entered the room:

“Have you found out what happened?”

“Reporting to the Gang Leader, after that person injured Master Zhang in the private room, he ran all the way out of Qingyuan Fist Village. Zong Guang chased after him, but was ultimately killed by him on Xiangwen Street. The body has been brought back.”

“Hmm.”

His face expressionless, Yu Hu didn't seem to care much about Zong Guang's death.

No matter how invincible in their own realm, they were still just Martial Artists.

Unrealized potential would always remain just that, potential.

What really mattered to him was the life and death of Zhang Mingze.

If he were a fierce tiger in the mountains, then Zhang Mingze was his wings. With Zhang Mingze, he truly soared!

The two had worked together for many years, and even setting aside personal feelings, they were both acutely aware of each other's importance.

“Let one person in.”

Yu Hu called to the people kneeling outside in the rain.

The bodies of those outside trembled, and a man shakily entered the room, then quickly knelt in front of Yu Hu:

“Gang Leader.”

“What did Master Zhang and that person talk about in the private room? Did you hear anything?”

“Reporting to the Gang Leader, the private room was soundproofed well, we didn't hear what was spoken inside. We only rushed in when we suddenly heard Master Zhang's scream,”

Yu Hu furrowed his brow.

He had previously sent the Green-faced Ghost to kill Feng Zhenshan as a test to see if the latter was a man from the Chief's side. The outcome had alleviated his and Zhang Mingze's suspicions since Feng Zhenshan was not a chess piece to be easily sacrificed.

But now the Green-faced Ghost had targeted Zhang Mingze instead.

“Whose side is this person really on? Could he be some madman who suddenly appeared?!”

Yu Hu's anger grew by the minute. He said,

“Send out an order. Tiger Saber Gang issues an Execution Order on this Green-faced Ghost! A bounty of ten thousand yuan! Additionally, spread the news of the Green-faced Ghost killing Feng Zhenshan. Alert the Inspection Bureau, Zhi Ge Court, and Righteous Court to act!”

“Yes!”

The subordinate took the command and left.

Tiger Saber Gang hadn't issued an ‘Execution Order' in many years.

Back then, Yu Hu's ‘Execution Order' could only target someone within the underworld, but now, with just one word, he could mobilize the three martial forces of Xing City!

Such influence was just as he once told his subordinates:

“We're not just a gang. We represent Xing City!”

That evening, the news of Tiger Saber Gang's Execution Order shocked both the underworld and lawful factions of Xing City.

The name Green-faced Ghost completely resonated throughout Xing City!

…

Note 1: For someone long accustomed to minding their own business, even if they truly become unmatched, would they suddenly change their disposition to perform heroic deeds and save the world? I don't think that's realistic. So the assumption that one would wait till they are powerful to act differently doesn't seem viable to me because as long as you are not unbeatable, risks will always exist.

I don't think there's anything wrong with keeping to oneself; it is also a way of life or perhaps a ‘writing style' as people might expect:

The protagonist steadily develops by defeating every enemy in their path until they are invincible…

I think that's actually a good narrative, but it's not what I want to write. I aim to write something more relaxed and exhilarating~
