When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

This is putting me in a difficult position.

After pushing Xiao Hei aside, Zhu Chongjiu said to the little golden man, "It's my fault for making things difficult for the little golden hero."

Why don't you tell us, Master Jin, how you plan to deal with us two brothers?

This will allow both of us to be prepared.

The little golden statue said, "Originally, it was only natural that murderers should pay with their lives and debtors should repay their debts."

However, from what you two are saying, I believe the matter was caused by my younger brother.

That being the case.

You two brothers do not deserve to die.

I see that you two brothers are also righteous and chivalrous, willing to go to great lengths for your brothers.

Therefore, this great hero has made a decision.

"Each of you will be fine after taking one blow from this great hero."

At this moment, the little golden statue has his hands behind his back, looking like a wise man!

Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "This world doesn't have period dramas or Jin Yong's novels. Where did this little guy learn all this from?"

Despite his doubts, Zhu Chongjiu quickly pulled Xiao Hei aside and said, "Why aren't you thanking Master Jin yet!"

After saying this, Zhu Chongjiu clasped his hands in a fist salute and repeatedly bowed.

Little Black also clasped its two front paws together, making a fist-and-palm gesture.

Just after Zhu Chongjiu finished expressing his gratitude, he said, "Young Master Jin, my brother is too young to withstand a single blow from you."

"I might as well take it all on myself!"

"Damn it, Ninth Brother, aren't you overacting a bit?" Xiao Hei asked Zhu Chongjiu telepathically.

In terms of elements, metal is the dominant element in the universe.

The element of metal is extremely sharp, the element of earth is heavy, the element of fire is domineering, the element of water is gentle, and the element of wood is restorative.

I just wanted to test how strong my body's defenses are now.

Don't worry, as long as this little golden statue doesn't kill me, I won't die.

If he were to try and kill us, in this environment, thousands of meters underground, the two of us would have a very hard time resisting!

Just as Zhu Chongjiu was communicating telepathically with Xiao Hei, the little golden man spoke up, "Alright!"

Seeing that you have the responsibility of an older brother, I'll grant your request.

"Now get ready, I'm about to begin!"

After Zhu Chongjiu stood in the center of the cave, he said, "Come on."

As soon as Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, the little golden man instantly appeared in front of him.

At the same time, that small fist also struck Zhu Chongjiu in the abdomen.

A muffled thud!

Zhu Chongjiu felt an unprecedented pain.

This pain was the first time Zhu Chongjiu had felt since emerging from Shenxu.

After the golden statue withdrew its fist and retreated several steps, Zhu Chongjiu covered the area where he had been hit with both hands, gritted his teeth, and cold sweat was already beading on his forehead.

At this moment, Zhu Chongjiu felt as if he were an ordinary person who had been hit hard in the stomach by a large iron hammer.

Zhu Chongjiu's internal organs have now been shattered by the powerful punch from the little golden statue.

However, even so.

Zhu Chongjiu remained silent and did not retreat an inch.

After seeing this, the little golden man asked Zhu Chongjiu with some doubt, "Why didn't you use defensive magic techniques?"

With your strength, if you use defensive techniques, my punch won't do you any harm at all.

After all, I only used three-tenths of my strength!

Zhu Chongjiu paused for a moment.

With its powerful physique, its internal organs were healing rapidly.

A moment later, Zhu Chongjiu recovered completely.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he said to the little golden statue, "Little Golden Hero, since I said I wanted to apologize, I should act like I am."

If I use magic to defend myself, what kind of apology would that be?

After hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, the little golden statue stretched out its small hand and gave Zhu Chongjiu a thumbs up.

He then said, "Although I admire you, since you've said 'attack' twice, it's been done twice."

For my next attack, I will use some of my signature techniques and will not resort to brute force.

Are you ready?

Zhu Chongjiu stood still again and said loudly, "Come on!"

After Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, the little golden man disappeared instantly and then reappeared in front of Zhu Chongjiu.

However, this time, what struck Zhu Chongjiu's abdomen was definitely not the small, exquisite fist of the little golden statue.

What appeared before him was a dazzling, golden blade that shone brightly and captivated the eye, extending from the arm of the little golden man!

Just as the golden blade was suddenly extended from the little golden figure's arm and stabbed toward Zhu Chongjiu's abdomen with overwhelming force, a strong sense of crisis instantly surged into Zhu Chongjiu's heart.

Before the golden blade even touched his abdomen, Zhu Chongjiu clearly sensed an extremely sharp golden energy rushing towards his abdomen.

This power seemed capable of penetrating all obstacles, and even the slightest contact with it sent chills down one's spine.

At that moment, Zhu Chongjiu felt a sense of foreboding, because he could clearly feel that even though the golden blade had not yet touched the skin of his abdomen, the sheer amount of golden energy was already like an incredibly sharp needle, easily piercing through the outer layer of protection on his abdomen and deeply penetrating his flesh.

As the golden energy continued to impact and erode, Zhu Chongjiu felt waves of intense pain in his abdominal flesh, as if thousands of fine needles were piercing him at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, the gleaming, solid golden blade hurtled towards them.

Its speed was as fast as lightning, unstoppable, like an indestructible golden spear that pierced straight through Zhu Chongjiu's body.

The feeling was like chopsticks easily piercing through tender tofu, without the slightest resistance or difficulty.

In the blink of an eye, Zhu Chongjiu was pierced through the heart by the terrifying golden blade, blood splattering everywhere, a truly gruesome sight.

The golden statue strikes in an instant, and withdraws just as quickly.

The moment it pierced through Zhu Chongjiu, the golden blade extending from the little golden man's arm vanished without a trace.

This time, Zhu Chongjiu did not force himself to stand up. Instead, he slowly sat cross-legged on the ground and began to heal his injuries by circulating his internal energy.

Upon witnessing this scene, Xiao Hei appeared before Zhu Chongjiu like a streak of black light.

They began taking out various rare and precious herbs and healing elixirs from their storage rings, intending to stuff them into Zhu Chongjiu's mouth.

However, Zhu Chongjiu secretly stopped him through telepathy.

It's not that Zhu Chongjiu had masochistic tendencies.

Rather, Zhu Chongjiu felt that this was the most severe external injury he had ever suffered since he came into this world.

However, it is not the most dangerous injury.

For example, when I first took the Iceberg Snow Lotus in the mysterious cave, or when I took a large amount of rare and precious herbs for the first time in the Divine Void, I upgraded my meridians and acupoints.

These are all dangerous situations where a mistake could lead to instant death from a body explosion!

The injuries look serious, but they are not fatal.

Zhu Chongjiu took this opportunity of a penetrating external injury to test his recovery ability.

It's good that if I encounter this situation in future battles, I'll be prepared.

Looking at Zhu Chongjiu, whose pale golden blood was flowing out, and whose huge wound on his abdomen was healing little by little to the naked eye, the little golden figure scratched his head with some doubt and then sat down opposite Zhu Chongjiu.

I wonder what he's thinking about?

Time was quiet for a while, but not long after, only a few minutes.

The external appearance of Zhu Chongjiu's abdomen has completely healed.

Several dozen seconds later, Zhu Chongjiu opened his eyes, and his complexion, which had been deathly pale, returned to a rosy hue.

Looking at the little golden statue in front of him, Zhu Chongjiu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your mercy, little golden statue hero."

However, since you look younger than me, may I call you Xiao Jin?

Or does Little Jin have any other titles?

After all, we people of the martial arts world respect our elders and don't care about empty fame.

After hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, the little golden statue seemed a bit confused.

He thought to himself, "Hmm?"

They asked me my name, and then said that people in the martial arts world don't care about empty fame!

He said he was older than me, called me Little Jin, and then told me that people in the martial arts world respect their elders!

That's a trap!

This guy is clearly a seasoned veteran; he's not only incredibly loyal and righteous, but also incredibly intelligent and brave.

We should learn more from him.

To avoid being taken advantage of or cheated when traveling the world in the future.

After sighing inwardly, the little golden man said to Zhu Chongjiu, "If you want to call me Little Golden, don't bother with all that formalities."

I may be young, but I'm not stupid!

Upon hearing the little golden man's reply, Zhu Chongjiu smiled awkwardly and paused for a moment, thinking to himself, "Up to now, among all the elemental spirits of heaven and earth that I have come into contact with, this Golden Source is the most intelligent one."

Its ability to speak human language demonstrates that the Source of Gold has long since developed sentience.

As Zhu Chongjiu pondered this in secret, the little golden man spoke up: "Our grudges have been wiped clean."

Now tell me what you meant by what you said on the ground.

"What protection do you mean? Who wants to arrest me?"

After hearing the little golden figure's words, Zhu Chongjiu knew in his heart that although the little golden figure seemed immature in its speech and actions.

But Zhu Chongjiu felt that the little golden man's simplicity was simply because he had spent too little time in the mortal world.

If he were to immerse himself in the melting pot of society for many years, he would surely become a prodigy of extraordinary talent.

Knowing that he could not underestimate the little golden statue, Zhu Chongjiu's expression became serious, and he began to speak frankly and without reservation about the cause of the matter!
