The sudden incident not only caught the old man off guard, but even Gongsun Yi was also taken by surprise, his eyes widened in shock.

He had previously seen Jiang Shi remain indifferent, accepting whatever others said, and felt quite annoyed inside.

But he never expected this outcome.

In the next moment, Jiang Shi abruptly exploded into action.

With just one move, he threw the elder of the noble family off his horse, smashing him into severe injury.

What the hell!

This guy's strength is even more terrifying now!

"Elder!"

The two gatekeepers nearby changed their expressions, exclaiming in shock.

As for the middle-aged man Jiang Shi had previously thrown out, he was horrified and without thinking, turned to flee.

Daring to attack their noble family from a mere bandit stronghold?

Have they gone insane?

"Where do you think you're going?"

Gongsun Yi's face darkened, and his body flickered, rushing over in an instant.

However, Jiang Shi said nothing, picked up a fist-sized rock from the ground, and suddenly turned around, hurling it fiercely in the direction of the escaping middle-aged man.

Whoosh!

The hard stone, thrown with all his might, was no longer a simple stone, but instead transformed into... a cannonball!

It flew through the air, creating layers of sparks from friction.

Bang!

Agh!

A shrill scream echoed from afar as the middle-aged man's body was flung forward, blood spraying everywhere in a gruesome display, before crashing into the distance and meeting a tragic end.

His protective power and the soft armor on him were of no use, shattered with one blow, his back riddled with bone fragments.

Gongsun Yi's face changed again, his body coming to an abrupt halt, looking at Jiang Shi as if he were a monster.

This monster... Just what realm is he in?

Why does it seem like he has completely surpassed the limit of a Martial Saint...

Even the two gatekeepers who were rushing forward stopped suddenly, shaken and fearful, not daring to flee any further.

"You, when doing business, just do business, why suddenly ride someone else's horse at the drop of a hat? Don't you know that I'm most afraid of others touching my horse?"

Jiang Shi looked at the white-haired old man lying in the pit, his body twitching, still alive but blood continuously gushing from his mouth.

Large bones pierced through his muscles, protruding from the skin's surface.

As miserable as can be.

He wanted desperately to speak, but upon seeing Jiang Shi's eyes, he swallowed his words, feeling despair, revealing a bitter smile.

As a pinnacle of the second tier Martial Saint... he was severely injured with just one move...

"So, what do you think we should do now? Does it hurt? Would you like me to get a doctor for you? It's all bloody now, looks too cruel. By the way, can we still continue our cooperation?"

Jiang Shi squatted down, looking at the aged old man, speaking with concern.

The old man's lips twitched, his eyes filled with grievance, blood continuously pouring from his mouth.

"I... I... damn..."

"Swearing?"

Jiang Shi's face sank.

Pfft!

He grabbed the old man's face, not allowing him to continue cursing, and directly yanked him out of the pit, originally intending to smash him to death, but after a thought, he stopped.

"Forget it, Heaven has the virtue of cherishing life, I'll give you another chance."

He carried the old man and walked towards the hall.

"Eldest Master, how should we deal with the remaining two?"

Gongsun Yi hurriedly asked.

"Handle it as you see fit."

Jiang Shi responded indifferently.

"Yes, Eldest Master!"

Gongsun Yi clasped his fists, turning his shadowy gaze towards the two gatekeepers from before.

The two men were shocked, turned around, and walked away.

However, Gongsun Yi appeared behind them almost instantly, grabbing them by the nape of their necks, slamming them together fiercely.

Crack!

Bones shattered, blood mist appeared.

The two burly men were instantly slammed to death.

"Fools!

Gongsun Yi spoke coldly, discarding the two corpses, and said, "Cao Bao, go see where our other brothers are being held?"

"Yes, Second Master!"

One-Eyed Dragon was inwardly delighted, almost showing it.

That's great.

The previous Second Master and Third Master are all dead. Now in the entire stronghold, besides Jiang Shi and Gongsun Yi, only I am the highest.

I've endured for seven or eight years to finally see this day.

If one day Jiang Shi and Gongsun Yi were also killed, wouldn't I become the Eldest Master?

···

Half an hour later.

Inside the spacious Juyi Hall.

Jiang Shi sat on the steps, lost in thought, watching the white-haired elder who was still not dead yet.

It must be said, the life energy of the noble family's experts is truly tenacious.

If it were an ordinary expert, with their bones completely shattered, they wouldn't last long, yet this one stubbornly endured.

But even though he endured, this elder could hardly bear it anymore, tortured by Jiang Shi to the brink of death.

"So, this is your family's super-grade martial art, Source Demon Technique?"

Jiang Shi inquired.

"Yes, I've already said everything I can say, please stop torturing me and give me a swift death."

The white-haired elder spoke painfully.

"What a pity, really a pity."

Jiang Shi frowned.

This super-grade martial art, like the [Primordial Divine Palm] he obtained at Zhenwu Temple, is driven by power cultivation.

Unfortunately, power cultivation is his weak point, his current power cultivation is only at [Entering Strength Tenth Stage], plus when wielding the Wolf Fang Club made of Star Meteorite Iron, his power is rapidly neutralized by the Star Meteorite Iron.

Unless... he can temporarily discard the Wolf Fang Club during combat.
