Chapter 13: Iron Fist
Shi Ping is Liu Zhangmen's first disciple, has been in Yu Hua Men for ten years, and his cultivation is at the second layer of Qi Refining stage.
Qin Chuan had only been with the Yu Hua Sect for four years and by the time Shi Ping left the sect, he was only at the first level of Qi Refining.
To be frank, at first Shi Ping's cultivation was higher than Qin Chuan's, but that didn't mean he had excellent qualifications, it just meant he had practiced for many more years.
But Shi Ping didn't think so. He just thought that apart from his master, he was the strongest in the entire Yu Hua Gate and would naturally take over as the next leader.
But now, Qin Chuan relied on his master's favoritism and snatched the position of sect leader that should have belonged to him. His heart was naturally filled with resentment towards Qin Chuan.
That day Liu Zhangmen was buried, Shi Ping colluded with other fellow disciples to announce their withdrawal from the sect, deliberately giving Qin Chuan a warning.
After leaving the sect, all the other disciples went their separate ways. Shi Ping, however, did not leave and chose to stay in the Green Willow Town at Wang Yuanwai's residence. In name, he became the guardian of the residence, but in reality, it was just so that he could see with his own eyes how Qin Chuan would end up three months later when the loose cultivator Song Yang returned to Yu Huang Men.
Wang Yuanwai had also seen Shi Ping's strength before and did not dare to treat him as an ordinary guard, so he was very polite.
That day, Chen Bo and Heng Er brought gifts to visit Wang Yuanwai's mansion. Shi Ping didn't show up, but he saw everything with his own eyes. It was also he who instructed Wang Yuanwai to drive Chen Bo and Heng Er out of the mansion, just to make things difficult for Qin Chuan.
If it weren't for this, Wang Yuanwai would just be a small town landlord in the outer district, and wouldn't have had the guts to clash with the Xiuzhenmen sect.
Now, after meeting Shi Ping, Qin Chuan naturally understood the ins and outs of it.
Since everything is his doing, let's take him down first!
As for Shi Ping, he couldn't have imagined that the Qin Chuan in front of him was no longer the soft-tempered and weak Qin Chuan from before. Nor did he know that Qin Chuan's strength had also undergone a tremendous change.
Seeing Qin Chuan dare to confront him head-on, Shi Ping thought he had become the sect leader and didn't know his place. He decided to give him a good lesson and vent his grievances.
"Alright, Qin Dazhuang, today let me see if you've made any progress in these past few days!" As soon as he finished saying this, Shi Ping's body moved and he swung his fists, taking the initiative to launch an attack.
"Come on!" Qin Chuan shouted loudly, without dodging or evading, and threw out a punch of his own, determined to go head-to-head with Shi Ping.
"Using an egg to hit a rock, asking for trouble!" These eight words flashed through Shi Ping's mind.
He thought that with his own strength at the second layer of the Qi Refining stage, he would definitely be able to knock Qin Chuan to the ground in a head-on confrontation.
Who would have thought that with a single punch, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his fist, and a huge force surged forth like a tidal wave. He was unable to steady himself, stumbling backward several steps, almost falling to the ground.
"This...this can't be!" Shi Ping grasped his right hand, which was twitching in severe pain, with his left hand, and he simply didn't dare to believe everything that had happened.
How did Qin Chuan, who was only at the first level of Qi Refining, have such great strength?
Qin Chuan didn't bother explaining and coldly said: "Don't be surprised, this is just the beginning!"
"You smelly little brat, don't be so proud of yourself! I was just holding back earlier!" Shi Ping couldn't believe that he would lose to Qin Chuan with his own strength, so he refocused his energy and swung his fists at Qin Chuan's face with even greater speed.
Just as the fist was about to hit Qin Chuan's nose, Qin Chuan still didn't dodge. Shi Ping couldn't help but feel triumphant in his heart. But in just a blink of an eye, Qin Chuan suddenly disappeared from sight. The punch that had gathered all his strength hit empty air, causing Shi Ping's body to surge with blood and energy, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
All of this was Qin Chuan's deliberate action. At the moment when the fist was about to hit him, he displayed his snake-like mysterious body technique and easily dodged the punch.
Standing behind Shi Ping, watching Shi Ping's clumsy figure spin around in place and charge towards himself again, Qin Chuan decided to end this boring game.
Foolish people cry when they see a coffin!
Qin Chuan's gaze turned fierce, his arms shook, and he launched the Tiger Fist of the Five Forms. His entire being transformed into a majestic beast king, charging towards Shi Ping with an aura that swept everything in its path. Each punch was imbued with an unstoppable momentum.
Poor Shi Ping, he never could have imagined that his former weak and timid junior brother would transform into such a fierce and courageous figure. Although he used all his might to resist, he still couldn't withstand the blows that rained down on him like a storm.
In just a few breaths, Shi Ping had been hit with seventeen or eighteen punches. He felt that there was not a single place on his body that didn't hurt, as if all of his bones had been shattered by Qin Chuan's iron fists.
Gritting his teeth and struggling on for a while, Shi Ping finally couldn't hold on any longer, and with a thud, he collapsed to the ground, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get up again.
The townspeople surrounding them were all shocked and stunned at this time. Qin Chuan, who was not originally looked up to by them, had actually beaten Shi Ping to the point where he couldn't get up in an instant, which was really beyond everyone's expectation.
Everyone has begun to discuss it: Who would have thought that near this small town, there was actually such a powerful sect existing.
What was it called again? Ah yes, it's called Huà Jiāo Mén!
As for Shi Ping who was knocked to the ground, he gritted his teeth and endured the pain all over his body, and said in a hoarse voice: "This... this is not the skill of Yuanyi Gate!"
Qin Chuan tidied up his clothes and said calmly, "I've told you before, you're not qualified to interfere with the affairs of the Feather Transformation Gate. What is or isn't a skill, the gate master has the final say."
"Y...y...y..." Shi Ping stuttered several times, but ultimately couldn't say a word, lying on the ground with complex emotions, closing his eyes.
Qin Chuan lowered his head and looked at him, saying: "You and I are after all from the same school, I won't kill you. However, from now on, wherever the name of Yuhua Gate reaches, you must immediately retreat three houses. Otherwise, don't blame me for not showing mercy again!"
Qin Chuan came to Lvyu Town this time, both to recruit disciples and to gain fame for the sect. Under the gaze of everyone, he defeated a group of guards and Shi Ping, which should be enough to make the name of Yu Hua Men resound in this area. It's not necessary to kill anyone, anyway, someone like Shi Ping can't stir up any waves.
At this time, the prompt sound rang out again in his ear: "The reputation of the sect has been increased."
Qin Chuang took a look at the information interface and found that the sect's reputation had risen from 15 to 30. Unexpectedly, Wang Yuanwai and Shi Ping's self-inflicted suffering had actually earned him 30 points of sect reputation.
The information interface owned by Qin Chuan is invisible to others. Everyone sees Qin Chuan standing in the field, silent and motionless, and no one dares to speak loudly.
However, Wang Yuanwai, who was beside him, knew that he could no longer remain silent. He suddenly rushed to Qin Chuan's side and knelt down at his feet with a thud.
