Chapter 16: Thoughts

Chen Yiming widened his eyes and tensed up his muscles, trying his best to see the burly man’s movements.

He was facing the weakest of the three men, who didn’t even have the power from the first transformation and was relying on his ferocity in fights. In the eyes of Chen Yiming, who had the power from three transformations, his movements were as slow as a child’s.

Chen Yiming didn’t use any techniques, and just relied on his superior reaction speed to dodge the incoming attack. He then countered with a simple slash which brushed past the burly man.

“Crack!”

The shadow of a sword flashed past.

A man’s head flew over the wall, both eyes bulging from their sockets, and landed in the courtyard next to it.

Chen Yiming was even able to move aside and avoid the blood that was splattering out. He turned to glare at the remaining two burly men, his eyes burning fiercely.

At this moment, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew past, the chill penetrating deep into the hearts of the two burly men.

Silence fell over the street. A headless corpse was lying in the middle of the three men.

A ghastly expression appeared on the scarred man’s face. He secretly gathered his strength and thoughts of retreat came to his mind.

He was getting on in years, and he was no longer the rash young man he used to be. Once he saw that Chen Yiming moved faster than he could react, he realized that his opponent was stronger than him.

The one-eyed man’s face had turned pale. Unlike the scarred man, he didn’t have the power from even one transformation. He had only learned a few knife techniques, and was just a little stronger than their third brother.

If they tried to escape, he knew that he would definitely not be able to outrun his elder brother who was stronger than him.

“You guys are so weak!”

Chen Yiming raised his wooden sword, blood dripping from the tip.

The difference in raw strength between one that had undergone three transformations and one that had not even reached the first transformation was absolute. There was no doubt about it.

The scarred man gritted his teeth. Pretending to be calm, he said fiercely, “Well, well, well. You dared to kill my third brother! Second Brother, let’s fight him together and avenge Third Brother!”

The one-eyed man’s eye lit up. Thinking that his elder brother had decided to go all out against their opponent, he followed up with some tough talk.

2

“Brat, how dare you kill our brother? Have you thought about how you’re going to die?”

The moment he finished speaking, the muscles of the two burly men started to bulge, a sign that they were gathering their strength. They could close in on Chen Yiming at any moment.

2

At the same time, Chen Yiming was also secretly gathering his strength, and kept his eyes fixed on the two burly men.

He had already figured out their rough strength, but he had yet to finish his preparations for dealing with both of them at once. A safe method would be to dodge the first round of attacks from the two men, then wait for an opportunity to make his move.

Both parties moved into position, as though they would fight it out in the next moment.

Close combat was often about fighting fiercely, and the two burly men had plenty of experience. They had the upper hand when it came to their imposing aura.

The situation suddenly changed. The scarred man and the one-eyed man had both turned around and were running in the opposite direction.

2

Both of them had wanted the other to bring up the rear. Hence, they shoved each other, hoping that the other party would be tripped up by an unforeseen attack and hold up Chen Yiming so that they could escape.

Chen Yiming wasn’t going to let them off so easily. The burly men were only pretending to be strong and bullying those weaker than them. Although they looked fierce, they didn’t have much substance.

“Swish! Swish!”

In a flash, Chen Yiming caught up with the one-eyed man and stabbed him straight in the chest. In the next moment, he caught up with the scarred man and stabbed him in the chest in one swift motion.

His speed was too fast, taking only a few seconds to reach them. The two burly men did not even realize that he had caught up so quickly. They had run less than ten meters when they were stabbed from the back by the wooden sword and fell to the ground.

Both of their hearts were blown to bits by the force from the wooden sword. After struggling for a few seconds, they stopped moving. Clearly, they were already dead.

Chen Yiming looked at the three corpses on the ground. Drops of fresh blood dripped from the tip of his sword.

1

The two men, one who had undergone the first transformation, and the other who had never undergone a transformation, were not even able to escape in the face of someone who had undergone three transformations.

He understood how great the disparity was between them. He then thought of the expert martial artists leading the transportation of supplies in the wilderness, who had undergone six transformations.

He had just completed three transformations, and didn’t even dare to become too high-profile in the city, much less leave the city for no good reason.

He decided to continue cultivating under a low profile. Glancing at the bloodstained wooden sword, he turned to enter the courtyard the burly men had hid in, planning to find some water to clean the sword.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he was greeted by the sight of a living room in a fearful mess. The iron door to the living room had been broken open by force.

There were torn pieces of clothing scattered on the ground, and on the table were leftover food and wine. Several broken chairs were carelessly thrown to the ground.

The family had already been targeted by those three burly men, and their house was ransacked by them.

Having witnessed this scene, Chen Yiming was extremely grateful that he had brought a special ability with him to this world that he could use to ensure the safety of his family.

Without the strength to protect themselves, a small incident could result in the death of the entire family in this chaotic world.

He did not enter the living room, and instead found a tap in the corner of the courtyard.

Fortunately, the bloodstains on the wooden sword were still fresh, so the blood had not hardened completely. Using a brush from beside the tap, he managed to brush it clean.

When he got up to leave, he saw a scene in the living room that he did not notice earlier.

A young girl was lying motionlessly on the bed, with no clothes covering her body. Her long legs were covered in bruises.

There were signs of strangulation on her neck, and her eyeballs were bulging abnormally. It was clear that she was suffocated to death by someone strangling her neck.

Chen Yiming’s heart sank when he saw this.

Without sufficient strength for defense and protection, beauty could easily bring about disaster in these troubled times.

In the end, the village could not be compared to the districts with proper management. The people were not truly under control and no one knew when a disaster would happen.

Chen Yiming recalled that his family consisted of his parents and sister, who were all ordinary people.

He had to go to the martial arts school for training every day, and could not protect his family at all times.

Although he had his identity as a martial arts trainee to intimidate potential troublemakers, he could not guarantee that none of the bandits would take the risk and rob them. After all, there was a high chance that the family of a trainee was relatively wealthy, and they would definitely be able to obtain a lot of supplies.

2

As long as the war in the west continued, the supplies in the city would become more and more limited every month. Since only one month had passed, public order was still not completely undermined. In the future, when people started to starve to death, the Chen family would definitely be targeted when Chen Yiming went out.

“We need to buy a house!”

1

A strong urge welled up in his heart.

The district developed by a large corporation was specially equipped with a certain amount of security. Although it wasn’t very powerful, it was enough to fend off ordinary robbers.

For the Chen family, this would be enough to make Chen Yiming feel at ease when he went out.

“Next, I have to think about how to make some money,” Chen Yiming muttered under his breath. He added a new item to his original plan: Earn money.

2

He needed money to buy mutant beast meat. He needed money to buy a house. He also needed money to buy equipment. Basically, money was required for whatever one wanted to do.

However, Chen Yiming hadn’t thought about how he could earn some cash. He planned to find an opportunity to brazenly ask Senior Brother Wang for his opinion.
