From the moment the Tiger Soul awakened, I became invincible.

Chapter 133 Qin Wu's Divine Might

Zhou Yan held off the powerful enemy, but Zhou Qiao'er's retreat was not so easy. A martial artist from the Zhou family, at the True Qi Realm, grinned and charged towards Zhou Qiao'er. Upon seeing this, Zhou Yan's eyes turned bloodshot.

Just as the man was about to grab Zhou Qiao'er's shoulder, he roared, "You're asking for death!"

The moment he finished speaking, he moved like a sharp blade, charging towards the man with a single strike, even directly confronting the palm strike of a martial artist at the initial stage of True Qi. As the palm struck him, his blade finally landed in front of the man.

Although the martial artist at the initial stage of True Qi was stronger than him, he had never seen Zhou Yan's fighting style before, and he never expected Zhou Yan to come to his aid at this moment. So, caught off guard, he was actually slashed in the shoulder by Zhou Yan's blade. A sharp pain suddenly came, and he let out a scream.

However, Zhou Yan's condition was clearly worse than his. Compared to the knife wounds on his opponent's body, Zhou Yan felt as if his internal organs had shifted after being struck by that palm. Even so, he showed no intention of retreating, like a wounded lion, fiercely protecting Zhou Qiao'er.

Zhou Qiao'er pursed her lips, her gums clenched tightly, but there was nothing she could do. The gap between the two sides was simply too great; it was beyond their ability to overcome.

Seeing her brother fighting desperately on the front lines, Zhou Qiao'er also picked up her weapon, wanting to help him. However, her strength was utterly meaningless in the face of these Zhou family warriors.

The other party merely glanced at her indifferently, then casually slapped her away, sending her flying and causing her to cough up blood and collapse to the ground, unable to get up for a moment. Zhou Yan, witnessing this, was furious but powerless to do anything about it.

At this moment, he was filled with immense regret. How could he have made such a foolish mistake as choosing to go down the mountain? If he hadn't gone down, perhaps his sister wouldn't have been in such danger today. But no matter what, it was too late for regrets now—he couldn't stand by and watch his mother be in danger, so the danger they were facing now was inevitable.

His only regret was not informing Senior Brother Qin Wu. If he had, perhaps Qin Wu could have come up with a better solution. Then he looked at Zhou Qiao'er and asked, "Little sister, are you afraid of dying?"

Zhou Yan's eyes were filled with determination.

Zhou Qiao'er paused for a moment, then her expression hardened, and she replied, "I'm not afraid."

"good!"

Holding the Black Demon Blade, Zhou Yan roared, "Since that's the case, then you and I, brother and sister, will perish here today. Even if we die, we absolutely cannot be taken back by them."

Zhou Qiao'er clenched her teeth and nodded vigorously.

Hearing the two men's resolute words, the old man frowned—this was the last thing he wanted to face.

Bringing both of them back unharmed would be extremely beneficial to their plans, but if they were injured in any way, things would become much more complicated. Therefore, the biggest problem now isn't how to kill them, but how to ensure their survival.

Then a cold glint appeared in his eyes: "Since you're courting death, don't blame me. Don't hold back; as long as they're both alive, that's enough."

Upon hearing this, the Zhou family warriors who were attacking immediately turned ferocious. The reason they hadn't been able to defeat the brother and sister earlier wasn't because the siblings were particularly strong, but because they had been fighting with their hands tied.

But now that the ban on liberation has been lifted, things will be much easier – they will ensure that the brother and sister don't even have the chance to commit suicide.

Just as the brother and sister were in despair, a figure approached from afar; it was Qin Wu. Before even reaching the battlefield, he had already seen the situation, his eyes instantly turning cold, his entire body radiating a chilling aura as if emanating from ancient ice.

"How dare they kidnap my Tianwu Mountain disciples at the foot of my Tianwu Mountain! Do they really think Tianwu Mountain is invincible?!"

Qin Wu's furious roar was like a thunderclap, instantly drawing the attention of all the Zhou family warriors. However, upon seeing Qin Wu, they couldn't help but burst into laughter:

"Where did this brat come from, daring to provoke the Zhou family?"

Someone snorted coldly.

It's no wonder they look down on Qin Wu; he's just too young, looking no more than twenty years old. He might not be much older than Zhou Yan and the other two. Even if he's incredibly talented, he probably won't be able to reach the True Qi Realm. Naturally, such a person poses no threat to them.

Therefore, Qin Wu's appearance now seems extremely ridiculous to them.

Upon seeing Qin Wu, Zhou Yan and Zhou Qiao'er were immediately overjoyed: "Senior Brother Qin!"

Zhou Qiao'er exclaimed in surprise.

In her eyes, Qin Wu was an omnipotent being. Long ago, he was able to defeat several disciples who had reached the True Qi Realm by himself. Now that so much time has passed, his strength must have improved again. Perhaps Qin Wu really has the ability to defeat these people in front of him.

Qin Wu walked step by step to the front of the crowd, coldly glancing at the Zhou family warriors before looking at Zhou Yan and asking, "How are your injuries?"

"He won't die."

Zhou Yan spoke, and although the situation was already extremely bad, he still struggled to stand up and walked straight behind Qin Wu.

With Qin Wu around, he felt particularly at ease for some reason. Qin Wu was like a mountain, firmly protecting them behind him, as if they had nothing to worry about even if there were thousands of troops in front of them.

Seeing the two's actions, the old man from the Zhou family frowned slightly and looked at Qin Wu: "You dare to interfere in the affairs of our Zhou family? It seems you really have a death wish."

Then, with a wave of his hand, two martial artists at the True Qi Realm stepped forward and surrounded Qin Wu. In their view, these two were enough, since Qin Wu's strength was clearly not that great.

The two men showed no fear and charged straight at Qin Wu. In that instant, Qin Wu drew his sword, and in the blink of an eye, his Tiger King Blade unleashed a fierce strike, decapitating one of them in a split second.

This scene stunned everyone present. However, Qin Wu's actions did not stop there. He swung his knife at another person. The other person was prepared because of what had happened before, but even so, he was still sent flying more than ten meters by a single blow.

"Where did this monster come from?"

The man was terrified, completely consumed by fear. Seeing Qin Wu chasing after him, he quickly turned to the old man and cried out, "Elder, save me!"

Qin Wu's power was truly terrifying. He knew very well that with his current strength, he would be instantly crushed.

"How dare you!"

The old man roared, but before he could make any move, Qin Wu appeared in front of him and expressionlessly slashed down with his sword, killing the second man instantly.

After doing all this, Qin Wu looked at the old man and said, "You are not qualified to cause trouble here."

"Arrogant!"

Before the old man could speak, the middle-aged man roared angrily. His face was filled with extreme rage—those two good-for-nothings hadn't even lasted a moment against Qin Wu.

At the same time, he was also somewhat surprised and uncertain. Qin Wu's strength just now was not weak. He was, after all, a strong person who had reached the True Qi Realm. Even if he was careless, he should not have been defeated by a young man like Qin Wu.

However, Qin Wu's swordsmanship was simply too fast. The extreme speed of his swordsmanship made even Qin Wu sense something was wrong. This was enough to prove that Qin Wu's swordsmanship had at least reached the level of mastery, or even perfection. Otherwise, under any circumstances, it would be absolutely impossible to achieve such an effect.

However, he still had enough confidence in himself, for a very simple reason—although Qin Wu's swordsmanship was very sharp, his aura seemed somewhat weak, as if he had not yet entered the True Qi Realm.

Therefore, he stepped forward and coldly said to Qin Wu:

"Kid, if you kneel down and beg for mercy now, I might spare your life. Otherwise, you're dead today."

He was extremely angry after Qin Wu killed two of his men.

If Qin Wu were a powerful expert who had mastered the True Qi, he might be wary. However, Qin Wu had not reached the True Qi level. Under these circumstances, no matter how strong Qin Wu was, his Qi recovery speed would be much slower than his own. Therefore, as long as he fought with him for a few moves and exhausted all of his internal energy, he would naturally be able to kill this opponent.

A faint smile appeared on Qin Wu's lips.

The enemies before them were indeed formidable, especially the old man. Even Qin Wu was somewhat unsure of his level, which suggested that this man's cultivation had likely reached its peak, the pinnacle of True Qi.

If the old man were to join the fight, it wouldn't be easy for him to defeat this group. Even if he managed to escape unscathed, the Zhou siblings would likely have no chance of being brought back.

Under these circumstances, he chose to feign weakness, thinking that once all other threats were eliminated, it would not be too late to deal with the old man later. That is why he displayed power that had not yet reached the initial stage of True Qi.

Now everything is developing in the direction he wants. The middle-aged man is not weak either. Even if he has not reached the late stage of the initial stage of True Qi, he has at least reached the middle stage of the initial stage of True Qi. He is the biggest threat besides the old man.

Now that the other party has stepped forward, the biggest threat will disappear once we deal with him.

"Senior Brother Qin, be careful. This person is quite strong. He is a mid-stage True Qi Realm expert. He is not good with weapons, but his palm techniques are fierce. He has killed martial artists of the same level before."

Zhou Yan recounted the information he knew. The Zhou family was large, and he didn't know many people in it, but he happened to know a thing or two about this middle-aged man.

Upon hearing this news, the middle-aged man's face immediately turned furious. He was holding a sword in his hand, but Zhou Yan had exposed his deception, rendering the sword useless.

He then threw the sword in his hand to the ground and coldly said to Qin Wu:

"So what if you know? My strength is far beyond what someone like you, who hasn't even reached the initial stage of True Qi, can compare to."

Seeing that the other person was indeed skilled in palm techniques rather than swordsmanship, Qin Wu couldn't help but admire him. No one in this world is simple—this man wielded a sharp sword, and the sword didn't appear to be of low quality, yet he was skilled in palm techniques.

If he didn't understand the situation and acted rashly, he would inevitably focus most of his energy on the sword, and might even suffer a small loss in the process. Fortunately, Zhou Yan knew about the other party's situation, which helped him resolve the danger.

"In that case, let's give it a try."

Qin Wu's lips curled up, and in the next instant, his eyes became extremely sharp. He charged towards his opponent like lightning, his speed far exceeding anything he had ever shown before.

The moment he saw that speed, the middle-aged man realized something was wrong—the speed Qin Wu was unleashing was definitely not something someone who hadn't reached the True Qi Exit stage could achieve, meaning Qin Wu had been holding back.

"Damn bastard!"

He roared, his inner energy suddenly converging into his palms, and then he unleashed a powerful palm strike. This strike, gathering all his power, was the strongest of all.

He originally wanted to engage in a prolonged fight with Qin Wu, but the speed Qin Wu displayed at this moment had left him with no leisure for such a battle. At this moment, he could only hope that he could force Qin Wu back with a single palm strike, and then the elder behind him would make a move.

Upon seeing Qin Wu's speed, the old man behind them immediately realized something was wrong and roared, "Everyone, attack together!"

At the same time, he charged toward the center of the battlefield.

However, it was all too late. In the blink of an eye, Qin Wu had already appeared in front of his opponent.

Before Qin Wu could even draw his sword, the middle-aged man struck him with a palm, forcing Qin Wu to abandon his attack.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he failed to notice the cold glint in Qin Wu's eyes—a knife is for killing, but his greatest skill has never been his knife technique.

In a split second, Qin Wu's right hand formed a claw and suddenly grabbed at his opponent, piercing straight through his chest and tearing out a bright red heart.

"die!"

The sudden turn of events caused the air on the battlefield to freeze for a moment.

The old man was both shocked and furious.

He never expected that Qin Wu's poison had grown to such an extent. In the instant he unleashed his full power, his only martial artist at the mid-stage of the initial stage of True Qi was killed.

At the same time, his murderous intent surged.

With such strength at such a young age, if he is allowed to grow up, he will definitely be a huge threat to the Zhou family in the future.

Therefore, we must spare no effort to kill them here today.

He took the lead and charged towards Qin Wu, followed by the remaining Zhou family warriors who also attacked Qin Wu.

The Zhou siblings watched all of this with bated breath.

Qin Wu did not retreat but advanced.

Just as he was about to get close to the old man, Qin Wu moved nimbly and dodged, appearing in front of a martial artist at the early stage of True Qi Realm.

With the Tiger King Blade in his hand, he killed his opponent as easily as cutting melons and vegetables. At the same time, Qin Wu's entire body had already slashed towards another True Qi beginner.

In just a few breaths, the Zhou family had already suffered heavy losses.
