Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog-Chapter 552 - 355: Helping You Cultivate

Whooosh~~~

Master Wu Jie was a monk with a tall, strong build. At this moment, he was running urgently through a small forest, occasionally looking back in shock to ensure that the little killer god hadn’t discovered him.

Only then did he murmur in his heart in horror:

"Monster, truly a monster. In the past few days in Yan Capital, the number of monsters has been increasing. I must have been out of my mind, almost wanting to attack Chen Ku. If I hadn’t hidden well enough, I would probably have ended up like Jiang Yufei and those six with Old Monster Wei."

Apparently, he was also someone interested in the Hero King Treasure on Chen Ku, but due to his caution and composure, he always kept his position hidden and watched from the shadows.

Thus, he saw everything with his own eyes.

From Chen Ku taking down people like Old Monster Wei one by one, then battling three Eighth Realm masters single-handedly, killing them all, and finally, cutting down Jiang Family’s Little Fire God, Jiang Yufei, with three strikes...

He witnessed Chen Ku’s terrifying combat power.

He completely realized that this young man was someone he could not covet.

At this moment, he only regretted not having two more legs.

Luckily, because he realized quickly enough that he was no match for Chen Ku, he immediately started retreating towards Yan Capital, and before long, he appeared beneath its walls.

At this moment, the Assistant General and the City Defense Forces in Yan Capital were also gathering. Seeing Master Wu Jie return from outside the city, they immediately stopped him and questioned him, saying:

"Martial Practitioner, what happened over there? Who is fighting outside the city?"

Most of the people in Yan Capital, since the flames of war had not yet touched the city, were still quite complacent. But as soldiers, they were always on guard, afraid that Qi Cultivators from Yuan Country had infiltrated.

Seeing Master Wu Jie, they immediately wanted to question him.

Master Wu Jie, seeing this Assistant General responsible for defending the city, also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Greetings, Vice General Xu..."

Immediately, he relayed everything that had happened over there to the assistant general, mainly seeking protection. This Vice General Xu was also one of the renowned four Great Generals in Yan Capital, with Eighth Realm peak cultivation.

However, after hearing everything Master Wu Jie said, Vice General Xu first looked incredulously towards that direction outside the city:

"That Chen Ku, does he really have such skills?"

Single-handedly killing seven Eighth Realm masters, including a Jiang Family’s Little Fire God.

Immediately, he saw the look in Master Wu Jie’s eyes; he knew that this monk probably had the same thoughts as those seven but was scared off by Chen Ku’s shocking combat power before he could make a move.

As a dynasty ruled by martial prowess, Daji Dynasty.

Killing and looting were strictly prohibited, so even if Chen Ku killed seven people outside Yan Capital, in the eyes of the Imperial Court, it was at most a case of self-defense, not something that would warrant him leading troops to suppress.

Moreover...

Vice General Xu’s heart was turbulent at this moment.

This Chen Ku was only eighteen, yet possessed such monstrous power.

In recent days, he had also heard that the Martial Temple was preparing a batch of nominations for Grandmasters, and Chen Ku was among them.

An eighteen-year-old Martial Arts Grandmaster.

The title of Grandmaster, its official rank comparable to a Sixth Grade official. In local terms, he could become the Magistrate of a prefecture, illustrating how bright Chen Ku’s future was.

He himself, a Sixth Grade Vice General, would probably end his career at this rank, so why would he senselessly provoke a new star of Daji with unlimited potential?

"However, the Little Fire God Jiang Yufei is dead, and it will likely cause a stir. After all, the Jiang Family is a millennia-old family, and they won’t give up easily..."

Vice General Xu thought to himself:

"Yan Capital is likely to experience quite a commotion."

Soon.

The news that Chen Ku had slain seven Eighth Realm masters outside the city, including the highly-ranked Little Fire God Jiang Yufei above Xu Fanfeng and Duan Qingxuan, spread like wildfire and had reached all the city’s factions within half a day.

Inside Helan Qing’s Treasure Pavilion.

Only this morning, Xiao Tianzuo and the five others had escorted Chen Ku out of the city, and now, they were all gathered, shocked by the news:

"Brother Chen?"

"This is truly astounding."

Xiao Tianzuo, incredulous, said:

"He was actually able to take down seven Eighth Realm masters in one fell swoop?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Though Xiao Tianzuo was confident in himself being 70%-80% sure he could suppress the Jiang Family’s Little Fire God, having had a record of defeating him previously, that was nonetheless just a genius challenge, not a life-and-death battle...

Moreover, apart from Jiang Yufei, there were six other well-known Eighth Realm martial practitioners in the city.

"Brother Chen, truly gives people constant surprises and shocks."

Xu Fanfeng, a bit excited, said:

"That Little Fire God, I’ve always found him disagreeable. Too bad his Fire God’s Furious Heart Technique cultivation was truly formidable; I’ve previously suffered under his hand, intended to deal with him, but my strength was insufficient. I didn’t expect him to cast his thoughts on Brother Chen, resulting in his quick disposal at Chen’s hands, which is truly satisfying."

Among the Yan Capital Seven Heroes, the eldest, Xiao Tianzuo, and Duan Qingxuan with him, were closely ranked on the Genius List, with only Little Fire God Jiang Yufei rudely intruding among them.

Now that Chen Ku had eliminated Jiang Yufei, not only Xu Fanfeng, but even Xiao Tianzuo felt a slight satisfaction, mainly because Jiang Yufei was too loathsome.

However, after this brief contentment, Xiao Tianzuo became worried:

"What happened to Brother Chen? How did he return home in just one day? It’s unknown whether he obtained the Thunder God Horn needed for his cultivation. Now, although he’s famed for killing Little Fire God and six other Eighth Realm masters, the Jiang Family is not an easy foe. Their elders will certainly try to find him secretly and take action against him."
