This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 143 - 115: Slaughter Heart, Divine Reappearance_2
Chapter 143: Chapter 115: Slaughter Heart, Divine Reappearance_2
Li Fei murmured after listening, “A pure ‘Slaughter Heart?'”
If it’s about killing, how can there be any purity?
To kill is to pursue something, entangled with all sorts of desires, the most intense emotional conflict. Could it be that one must become as numb to killing as to drinking water to truly understand the Slaughter Heart?
Shangguan Xiao looked at Li Fei’s thoughtful expression and smiled, saying,
“You don’t need to be in a rush. It took you less than three months to go from an ordinary person to a martial master in the Qi Change Stage. This is something unbelievable even if spoken out loud. Even compared to those legendary geniuses I know of, you are not the slightest bit inferior! So, there’s no need to hurry; you have all the time in the world to tread the path of the Qi Change Stage slowly.”
What she didn’t tell Li Fei was that the gap from the Qi Change Early Stage to the Qi Change Middle Stage, though seemingly minor, actually stumped many geniuses. And the breakthrough of True Qi demanded an even higher requirement on one’s Heart Realm.
...
Many highly talented individuals could swiftly break through to the Qi Change Stage, but then they couldn’t break through any further and ended up wasting their years in vain.
Because the Heart Realm is indeed something that one can’t force; external help is useless.
This was also why the court set the standard for official martial masters to be in the Qi Change Middle Stage; those in the Qi Change Early Stage were simply not qualified to be official martial masters.
This small gap in Realm determined the upper limit of one’s future in Martial Arts.
Shangguan Xiao didn’t elucidate all this to Li Fei; she didn’t want to pressure him, hoping that he could proceed naturally and relax his mindset.
“Yes, I understand,” Li Fei replied, giving his respects to Shangguan Xiao.
…
While Li Fei received guidance from Shangguan Xiao at Qingyuan Fist Village, Yu Hu, the Gang Leader of the Tiger Saber Gang, was at his mansion receiving several mysterious guests.
Three figures, shrouded entirely in black robes, entered the courtyard where Yu Hu practiced his martial arts every day.

Yu Hu had just finished his daily training and was sitting in the courtyard, drinking a medicinal concoction.
Seeing the three robed figures, Yu Hu did not rise; he continued sipping his medicinal drink.
“Do you treat all guests with such disregard when you need their help, Gang Leader Yu?” the leading figure in black robes asked in a low voice.
Yu Hu put down the bowl in his hand and looked at the man, scoffing,
“I need someone’s help? Aren’t you the one who’s like a dog that has lost its home, shouldn’t you be the one asking for my help?”
Upon hearing this, the figure lowered his hood, revealing his true face beneath the black robe.
It was Zhao Yu, the Sect Hierarch of the Calming Sect!
In that previous battle, Zhao Yu had cut ties and decisively abandoned most of his followers, taking only the elite of the sect and the four captured official martial masters and ultimately escaped to safety.
Now, after several months, he had returned to Xing City!
“A dog that has lost its home?”
Zhao Yu sneered at Yu Hu, “How come I’ve heard that Master Zhang was publicly killed in the streets, you, the Gang Leader, were publicly defeated and had to leave behind over a hundred firearms for your own protection? Subsequently, all Tiger Saber Gang members arranged inside the Martial Arts Hall were captured, and the Zhi Ge Court didn’t make a peep from beginning to end. In this situation, who exactly is the dog that has lost its home?”
Yu Hu’s eyes turned fierce as he glared back at Zhao Yu,
“Did your careful inquiries also include that I am actually a Tao Foundation Stage power?”
The air in the courtyard abruptly turned cold, and snowflakes began to fall!
Zhao Yu’s face changed, and the two silent figures standing behind him immediately stepped forward, shielding him.
Yu Hu glanced at the two robed figures, “It seems you finally succeeded.”
Zhao Yu patted the shoulders of the two figures, indicating they needn’t be tense.
He smiled at Yu Hu and said,
“I was already quite surprised when Gang Leader Yu was able to bring forth two Refining Strength Martial Masters not recorded in any of the intelligence files. I never imagined that you yourself are a Tao Foundation Stage powerhouse. This level of forbearance is truly admirable. There are few people in my life whom I admire, but Gang Leader Yu, you’re one of them!”
Saying that, he gave a thumbs-up to Yu Hu.
The snowflakes in the courtyard dissipated, and the temperature began to rise.
Yu Hu retracted his Cold Evil Snow Flakes,
“No need for idle talk. Now, you want to revive the Calming Sect, and I need to reverse the Tiger Saber Gang’s decline. We both have needs; we may as well cooperate.”
Saying this, he stood and gestured to Zhao Yu,
“Sect Hierarch Zhao, please.”
Zhao Yu smiled faintly and stepped forward,
“Gang Leader Yu, please.”
The two sat down together.
“That plan proposed by Master Zhang before, do you still plan to continue with it, Gang Leader Yu?” Zhao Yu asked straight away after sitting down.
Yu Hu looked at him, “Of course.”
Zhao Yu smiled, “Gang Leader Yu’s ambition remains unchanged; I admire that. But with the current situation, I’d like to know what’s the stance of the Zhi Ge Court? Without Chief Yan’s assistance, how do you plan to proceed with your plan?”
“Don’t worry about the Zhi Ge Court; Yan Yichen will definitely cooperate!” Yu Hu said resolutely.
“Oh?”
Zhao Yu looked into Yu Hu’s eyes, curious about how exactly he intended to control a Chief of the Zhi Ge Court.
But Zhao Yu knew this question touched on sensitive ground, so instead of probing further, he continued,
“If that’s the case, then we can move the plan forward.”
Yu Hu looked at him, “The Calming Sect now lacks hundreds of people and rifles compared to when the plan was made, how do you intend to fill that gap?”
Zhao Yu smiled confidently, “I wouldn’t have dared to come back if I wasn’t sure I could fill that gap.”
After looking at each other for a moment, Yu Hu also smiled,
“Good, Sect Hierarch Zhao is truly a remarkable man!”
“Hahaha, Gang Leader Yu flatters me, I’m far from your equal.”
Zhao Yu laughed.
Yu Hu quickly got serious again,
“However, before advancing the plan, there are a few obstacles that need to be eliminated.”
“Oh?”
“One is the Big Leader of Qingyuan Fist Village, another is Hao Yi, the special-class instructor of the Martial Arts Hall, and the last is Captain Li Lei of the Inspection Bureau’s first brigade.”
“The last Captain should be easy to handle, but the previous two are Tao Foundation Stage powerhouses, too difficult to kill. Does Gang Leader Yu already have a plan?”
“Yes.”
“I’m all ears.”
“You must have thoroughly investigated the recent changes in the situation. The three people I want dead are all related to one person.”
“You mean… that student from the Martial Arts Hall called Li Fei?”
“Correct, Li Fei!” Yu Hu said with a cold gleam in his eyes.
“He is Hao Yi’s student, the nephew of Qingyuan Fist Village’s Big Leader, and the adopted son of Captain Li Lei of the Inspection Bureau. Hao Yi values this student highly, Li Lei treats him as his own, and the Big Leader cares deeply about his brother. So if we capture Li Fei, we have the chance to eliminate these three obstacles in one fell swoop!”
As his words ended, the courtyard was filled with an icy intent of murder.
