Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Chapter 47 Arrangement
The sharp glint of the sword was deeply reflected in Gao Wu's eyes, jolting him out of his daze.

His superhuman physique of 15 points allowed him to easily withstand the attacks of the alien spirit, but he was intimidated by the alien spirit on a mental level.

The Frost Moon Sword's cold and sharp light also had some impact on Gao Wu. He silently recited the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra and quickly regained control of his body.

He left a Azure Dragon Divine Qi incantation unreleased to conserve his strength for any eventuality.

Song Mingyue in his arms was limp and weak, and her condition seemed to be not good.

Gao Wu couldn't sense the presence of the alien spirit. Without thinking too much, he hurriedly led Song Mingyue onto the ice.

Without the lake water obscuring his view, Gao Wu could see that Song Mingyue's pupils were so dark and bright that they could be described as radiant, shining like stars in the dark night.

Gao Wu was stunned to see such beautiful and bright eyes for the first time. He exclaimed, "Hey, your eyes are shining!"

Song Mingyue felt weak and limp; she didn't want to respond to such pointless remarks. Gao Wu thought for a moment and then added, "It's actually quite pretty!"

The main reason was that Song Mingyue was conscious and in good condition, which gave Gao Wu the mood for casual conversation. He didn't expect Song Mingyue to interact with him.

After a few minutes, Song Mingyue was able to sit up with difficulty.

"Is it done yet?" Gao Wu asked impatiently, getting down to business.

Song Mingyue shook her head: "It got away."

Gao Wu was somewhat disappointed. Despite taking such a great risk, he still failed to kill the alien spirit!

"Things are a bit complicated." Song Mingyue was weak and didn't have the strength to explain further. "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Okay." Gao Wu put the ice back, and there was nothing wrong with it on the surface.

The ice blocks he cut were large, with neat cuts, securely embedded, and buoyant enough that even if someone stepped on them, they wouldn't fall into the water.

After seeing Song Mingyue off, Gao Wu returned to his dormitory.

He hadn't been here for a few days, but the dormitory hadn't changed much. Gao Wu took a hot shower; the lake water was not only icy cold, but more troublesome was that it was extremely murky and full of mud.

After changing into clean pajamas, Gao Wu silently recited the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra on the bed.

After reaching the highest level, he could complete a full incantation recitation in twenty seconds. He would rest and adjust after reciting the incantation ten times.

In this way, it took forty minutes to recite the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra one hundred times.

The Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra was used to cleanse and refine him repeatedly, completely removing the imprint left by the evil spirit on his spiritual level.

The mark left by the otherworldly spirit on his mental level was like a thorn stuck in his brain, making him very uncomfortable.

After the mark was removed, Gao Wu felt completely refreshed and indescribably comfortable.

Song Mingyue glanced at her phone; no messages had come in. She probably felt that mobile communication wasn't secure.

Gao Wu sent a message to the old man, saying he was resting in his dormitory so the old man wouldn't worry. He then chatted with Shang Qingjun for a while.

Finally, he finished his routine homework and went to sleep peacefully.

The next morning, Gao Wu originally wanted to go to Bailong Mountain to practice his swordsmanship, but after thinking about it, he ultimately didn't dare to take the risk.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

He wore a weighted suit, carried a sword, and ran six laps around the school.

The No. 9 Middle School is located in a somewhat remote area, next to the old urban district. It originally belonged to a large factory and was later transformed into a school.

Although the campus buildings are old, the campus covers a very large area.

A large portion of Bailin Lake is located within the campus, making it the best scenic area on campus.

Running around this white-scaled lake is about four kilometers.

Running on flat ground is vastly different from climbing mountains, so Gao Wu ran two more laps because of this.

Finally, he went to White Scale Lake and practiced his fist and sword techniques several times. These were no secrets, and he wasn't afraid of others seeing them.

The real secrets lie in muscle exertion, breathing techniques, and mental visualization. Without guidance, no matter how many times you watch someone else, you can only learn the form.

Martial arts are now flourishing, and basic training methods are taught free of charge by schools.

For ordinary students, there's not enough time to learn everything the teachers teach, let alone secretly learn other people's skills.

Although Gao Wu is very famous in No. 9 Middle School, it's so cold early in the morning, no one would come specifically to see him.

After practicing his fist and sword techniques, Gao Wu went to the cafeteria for breakfast. As soon as he entered the cafeteria, he attracted everyone's attention.

The teachers and students of No. 9 Middle School all watched the video of Gao Wu killing Zhang Hao, and they also knew that Gao Wu had been arrested and that he had been released.

Knowing something is one thing, witnessing high martial arts firsthand is another. This guy actually used his sword to cut someone in two with his own hands—extremely brutal!
Regardless of the identity of the person being killed, the act of killing itself is extremely terrifying.

Most of the people looked at Gao Wu with awe, mixed with curiosity and scrutiny, wanting to see what made him so different, that he had such audacity and such ruthless methods.

Gao Wu smiled warmly at everyone, skillfully grabbed two large plates of food from the cafeteria window, and then found an empty table to dig in. Although the people around him were curious, no one dared to approach and invite him over.

At 7:50 a.m., Gao Wu walked into Class 2 of the third year of high school. The main reason he came to class was that he had discussed with Shen Yue whether to make a public appearance.

He definitely didn't come to class specifically to show off to his classmates...

The noisy classroom seemed to be paused, everyone stared wide-eyed at Gao Wu, and even breathing could be clearly heard in the large classroom.

"Hello everyone." Gao Wu waved to the students, grinning his white teeth.

Shen Yue waved from his seat: "Stop showing off, come and sit down!"

As Gao Wu sat down, the person in front of him couldn't help but turn around to look at him. Gao Wu was quite familiar with the other person, and he said irritably, "What are you looking at so suspiciously?"

"Hey, did you really kill someone?" the student in front of me asked in a low voice.

"I wasn't killing anyone, I was slaying demons and upholding justice!" Gao Wu said righteously. The male student in front of him hesitated for a moment before nodding hurriedly, "Yes, yes, yes!"

He then took out his phone and asked with a forced smile, "Hey bro, can we take a picture together?"

Gao Wu laughed and said, "Want an autograph? It's free."

The male student was overjoyed and took a few selfies next to Gao Wu. He then mustered up his courage, put his arm around Gao Wu's shoulder, and asked Shen Yue to take a short video for him.

With this male classmate taking the lead, a group of male classmates quickly gathered around Gao Wu to take photos.

There's nothing else to it, Gao Wu is incredibly popular online right now. Especially in Dongjiang, he's practically the number one internet celebrity.

There are always murderers, but to kill someone and still get away with it so easily is truly remarkable!
Young people are simple-minded; they just wanted to ride the wave of popularity of the martial arts community, take photos, and show them off. They didn't have any complicated thoughts.

Although the girls also wanted to take photos, they were too shy to crowd around like the boys, and could only whisper among themselves.

"He really came back! He was smiling so brightly, like nothing had happened!"

"He's so fearless! He's not even afraid to kill someone..."

"He's getting more and more pleasing to the eye; he seems to have become more handsome!"

"I feel more elegant now..."

Gao Wu's senses are now heightened, and he can hear most of the girls whispering about him, which makes him secretly pleased.

Hundreds of thousands of online compliments cannot compare to the admiration and worship of a few acquaintances.

He was a prominent figure in the class in the past, but this time was different, and many classmates respected him even more sincerely.

It has to be said that the feeling of being respected and worshipped is so great. Gao Wu's bones are now numb and tingling, like being electrocuted, an indescribable sour and pleasant sensation.

The teacher arrived too quickly, interrupting the students' viewing and ruining the atmosphere.

However, Gao Wu also saw shock in his teacher's eyes, and even a hint of fear...

This left him with mixed feelings; he wasn't a serial killer, he was just forced to kill a bad guy.

On the other hand, he felt that something was wrong with him too; he was too normal after killing Zhang Hao and had no reaction at all.

Throughout the morning, countless people flocked to Class 2 of Senior Three to watch Gao Wu.

Gao Wu was quite used to it, and greeted everyone with a smile as usual.

Seeing that he was casual and uninhibited, and had no airs, everyone became even more affectionate towards him.

After lunch, Gao Wu made a special trip to see the monkeys.

He unleashed two copies of the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra at its peak of power. Regardless of the effect, he had done his utmost…

Monkey and Wang Tiesong also knew that Gao Wu was in trouble, and they were noticeably more respectful towards Gao Wu, and their words and actions became more restrained.

In the afternoon, Gao Wu went to the martial arts gym for training. Huang Long and a group of other martial arts team members all had fawning smiles on their faces and treated Gao Wu with great care.

As members of the martial arts team, they knew all too well the ruthlessness and power of that sword strike. Looking at Gao Wu, they were filled with nothing but awe!
Coach Huang Hai publicly praised Gao Wu, saying that he was brave and decisive, showing the heroic spirit of a martial artist and serving as a role model for everyone.

After training, Huang Hai called Gao Wu to his office.

"I see that your martial arts cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds recently. You must have run out of the Blood Dragon Elixir. You were also able to kill the followers of the Demon God with your sword. Your vigor is at its peak."

Huang Hai said slowly, "You should be in the ring now, honing your skills through real combat. What do you think?"

Gao Wu had promised Huang Hai he would fight in the arena to get the Blood Dragon Elixir. Huang Hai came to ask him again, but Gao Wu couldn't refuse directly. He thought for a moment and said, "A lot of people are watching me lately, it's not a good idea to go into the arena."

Huang Hai's gloomy face rarely showed a smile: "It's precisely because you're at the peak of your popularity that you can attract enough viewers to the ring and earn more bounty."

"I'll think about it..." Gao Wu didn't refuse immediately. Anyway, Huang Hai couldn't really force him to do anything, so he decided to stall for a while.
