I'm a body cultivator, so it's normal for me to destroy a star with one punch, right?

Chapter 42 "Infiltrating" Benlei Martial Arts School!

September 3, 2024, cloudy.

3:20 p.m.

A black SUV slowly pulled up in front of the Benlei Martial Arts School.

inside the car.

Xiang Rongshan took a deep breath, composed himself, and then, with reddened eyes, abruptly pushed open the car door and got out.

This commotion immediately attracted the attention of several martial arts school disciples near the entrance.

Several disciples came forward and, noticing that Xiang Rongshan's expression was not right, quickly asked:
"Elder brother, what's wrong?"

"Senior Brother, didn't you go to the wilderness with Senior Brother Lü to find medicine for the Pavilion Master? Where is Senior Brother Lü?"

Xiang Rongshan, his face filled with grief, said, "Your Senior Brother Lü... he..."

Speaking of which.

Xiang Rongshan's voice even choked up: "Your senior brother Lü sacrificed himself for our Benlei Martial Arts School and for our master... From now on, our martial arts school will support his family, and I, Xiang Rongshan, will personally handle his funeral arrangements!"

"His name can be written on the honor wall of our Benlei Martial Arts School!"

This aligns perfectly with the persona he usually cultivates—a senior disciple who cares for and cherishes the martial arts school's disciples, treating them like family.

Amidst the disciples' cries of "Senior Brother, please accept our condolences," Xiang Rongshan strode into the martial arts school and headed straight for the school master's office.

Because Fang Tailai usually eats and lives at the martial arts school.

Therefore, the owner's office has a separate bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and practice room.

Knock on the door of the practice room.

Xiang Rongshan entered and respectfully greeted, "Master."

Fang Tailai sat cross-legged on the ground, shirtless.

He's not young anymore.

However, due to his long-term martial arts training and his breakthrough to the level of martial arts master, his body is very strong with well-defined muscle lines. However, the sword scar on his chest is even more conspicuous!
After being treated, the sword mark was no longer as gruesome as it had been initially.

Moreover, the "fire" on the sword mark had dissipated.

However, that "fiery light" did not truly disappear; instead, it invaded Fang Tailai's heart meridian!
Fang Tailai was breathing heavily and his face was pale.

He looked at Xiang Rongshan and said softly, "What did the Divine General say?"

Xiang Rongshan said, "The Divine General said that Master, you were struck by the Fiery Sword Qi of Zhang Heng, and you need to neutralize it with a water-attribute spiritual medicine. He does not have such a spiritual medicine on him, so he needs to report to the Divine Lord and ask the Divine Lord to bestow a pill. At most, the pill will be delivered to our Benlei Martial Arts Hall in three days."

"Three days?"

Fang Tailai's face lit up with joy, and he said, "That's great... According to custom, within half a year of breaking through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster level, one needs to go to the Heavenly Gate to serve. With the pills bestowed by the God, I can refine this Fiery Sword Qi in at most a month."

His voice was a little louder and his speech a little faster.

This aggravated his internal injuries, causing him to cough involuntarily.

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, which landed on the ground and burst into flames.

"Master, are you okay?"

Xiang Rongshan tried to step forward, but Fang Tailai stopped him.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "It's nothing... I am a martial arts master after all, I can withstand this fiery sword energy."

talking.

With a sigh, he lamented, "The difference between people is just too great. Zhang Heng, the Fiery Sword, already possessed extremely high swordsmanship, and he also awakened a fire-based extraordinary ability, which is why he became famous throughout Western Xia."

"He remained silent for 20 years, wasting 20 years... Now, upon his re-emergence, he easily broke through to the Grandmaster realm!"

"I have worked diligently for over twenty years, neglecting sleep and meals, yet I was still able to reach the Grandmaster realm only thanks to the Fish-Dragon Pill bestowed by the Holy Lord. And you are the same... If you want to reach the Grandmaster realm in the future, you will probably also have to rely on the Fish-Dragon Pill!"

Fang Tai looked at Xiang Rongshan and instructed him, "Work hard for the Holy Church and don't have any ulterior motives... Only with the Holy Church can we people have a chance to rise above others."

Xiang Rongshan should be the one.

He mentioned rivers.

"Oh?"

Fang Tailai was taken aback, then laughed and said, "Since this boy is in the wilderness, that's perfect. Go out of the city tonight, capture him, and give him to the generals... The generals are very curious about how Jiang He got rid of the evil poison. Capturing him would be a great achievement, and the chances of obtaining the Fish-Dragon Pill in the future would be even greater!"

Xiang Rongshan clearly shared this idea.

He paused, then said, "Master, it seems our Benlei Martial Arts School has been targeted recently..."

Upon hearing Xiang Rongshan's report, Fang Tailai frowned and said, "Yun Yanchen? She's Shui Qianyun's disciple, isn't she... Since she brought this upon herself, she has no one to blame but herself. Once I've recovered from my injuries, I'll find an opportunity to take action."

He had a long private conversation with Fang Tailai.

Xiang Rongshan then walked out of the training room.

He summoned his martial arts school disciples and issued orders to them one by one, beginning the preparations for the funeral of "Junior Brother Lü".

And this moment.

Jiang He, carrying his battle sword, returned to Wu City, weary from his journey.

Once in town.

He then went into a supermarket.

I was thinking of buying a mask or something to make things easier for me to commit the crime...

However, the masks hanging in the supermarket are of very poor quality; they're just plastic children's toys that obstruct vision when worn on the face.

Finally, Jiang He arrived at the women's stockings counter.

Upon seeing Jiang He carrying a knife, a saleswoman immediately greeted him with a beaming smile: "Sir, are you looking for stockings for your girlfriend? Would you like me to show you some?"

Jiang He said, "I don't have a girlfriend, I bought it for my own use."

since……

For personal use?

The saleswoman was clearly taken aback.

However, she was very professional and quickly regained her composure, asking, "Sir, do you have any requirements regarding stockings?"

Require?

Jiang He thought for a moment and said, "It needs to be elastic and breathable, and it shouldn't obstruct your vision when you wear it... By the way, do you have any stockings of the XXX brand? I used them last time, and they're very good."

"Sir, you have excellent taste!"

The saleswoman quickly brought three pairs.

A pair of black stockings, a pair of white stockings, and a pair of flesh-colored stockings.

Jiang He untied the black stockings, took out one, skillfully put it on his head, looked at himself in the mirror on the shelf from left to right, and exclaimed, "Not bad at all... these are the ones!"

Payment has been made.

Jiang He stuffed the stockings into his pocket, took a taxi, and arrived at a noodle shop opposite the Benlei Martial Arts School.

now.

It was already 4:30 PM.

Jiang He went up to the second floor and sat down by the window.

The waiter brought the menu, and he ordered a pot of eight-treasure tea and a plate of melon seeds, asking, "Do you have big plate chicken?"

The shop assistant nodded.

Jiang He: "Is the braised chicken with potatoes delicious?"

Shop assistant: "..."

"Give me one, but don't send it now. Just make sure it's delivered at 6 o'clock sharp."

Jiang He, munching on sunflower seeds, pointed out the window and asked, "What's going on with the Benlei Martial Arts School across the street? Why are there wreaths at the entrance? Could it be that Fang Tailai is dead?"

The shop assistant was startled and quickly said, "Sir, you can't say things like that... Master Fang is in his prime, how could he be dead? I heard that it was a disciple of the martial arts school surnamed Lü who died..."

"It seems that the disciple sacrificed himself for the martial arts school, so the school is handling the funeral arrangements. The second senior brother of Benlei Martial Arts School just booked 180 tables of banquet with us, so it's probably going to be a grand affair!"

"I know, go ahead."

Jiang He was eating sunflower seeds.

Looking carefully through the window, I observed the Benlei Martial Arts School.

Benlei Martial Arts School, one of the largest martial arts schools in Wucheng, occupies a large area with three floors. It is said to have various auxiliary training equipment rooms, a martial arts training ground, and dormitories for martial arts students.

The martial arts school disciples were busy running around.

soon.

They then hung a white jade pendant at the entrance of the martial arts school and prepared a portrait of the "disciple surnamed Lü".

Martial artists began to come and go, coming to pay their respects.

Jiang He poured himself a cup of tea, drank it all in one gulp, then slung his knife over his shoulder, went straight downstairs, and headed straight for the Lei Martial Arts School!

He's very brave!
No disguise was made.

Normal people...

It's estimated that very few people would do that.

However, after saying "Please accept my condolences" to the disciple holding the portrait of "Junior Brother Lü" at the entrance of the martial arts school, Jiang He was able to enter the school smoothly.

Jiang He even grabbed a martial arts school disciple and asked, "Excuse me, could you tell me... where is the school master's office?"

"Third floor, go up the stairs and turn right, it's at the end of the corridor."

The disciple may have seen the video of Jiang He defeating Chen Xiang, but he didn't recognize him at first glance.

In addition, many martial artists have come to offer their condolences.

This leads to...

No one paid any special attention to the river.

Jiang He went straight up to the third floor.

Following the directions given by the disciple, we found the academy master's office.

The office door was wide open.

but……

There's no one inside!

Jiang He frowned, just about to search elsewhere, when suddenly, a voice came...

"Rongshan, you've arrived?"

A voice came from inside the training room!
