Demon hunter's Cooking Manual

Under the gaze of Li Yuanyuan and Zhao Shuhua, the sinister-faced man in front of them raised his hand slowly with a cruel, mocking demeanor, causing the two girls to instantly turn pale.

They could feel that this man wasn't trying to scare them.

He genuinely intended to kill them.

Suddenly, an inexplicable pressure weighed upon the two of them.

The sensation made them feel suffocated.

Li Yuanyuan and Zhao Shuhua never imagined that a trip away from family would lead to such an incident.

They had only heard there was a cinema on Martial Arts Street and, out of curiosity, went there to explore.

After getting tired from wandering, they heard from a rickshaw puller that there was a teahouse nearby with delicious snacks.

With no particular place in mind, they took the rickshaw to the teahouse the driver recommended, to drink tea and eat snacks.

And then?

Then, after eating just two pieces of snacks and drinking a bowl of tea, they completely passed out.

Upon waking, they found themselves tied up in a line-up.

Even without inquiring into the details, the two weren't foolish; they immediately guessed what had happened.

But...

Mountain City is a real county seat.

It's not some wild backwater place.

Even if it can't compare to Zhoufu, it shouldn't be this chaotic!

At this moment, the repeated warnings from their parents and siblings came to their mind.

Regret!

Regret echoed in their hearts!

The two girls held each other, filled with remorse.

They shouldn't have been so headstrong.

But now?

It's too late.

How great would it be if someone could save us?

In the moment before death, the two girls prayed earnestly in their hearts.

The sound next to their ears was the slicing noise of a palm about to fall.

Whoosh!

Chen Yin watched as the two girls sobbed quietly, tears streaked across their faces, and without any hesitation, raised his hand, preparing to kill them.

It wasn't his first time killing.

After mastering martial arts, he committed his first murder.

To build courage.

Subsequent killings?

Were to prevent himself from growing rusty.

However, there weren't many opportunities to kill girls from wealthy families.

If circumstances permitted, he would have savored the moment.

Unfortunately!

After tonight, he had to leave Mountain City.

The cover was blown, staying meant courting death.

As for the Chen Residence?

Let it be carried away by the wind.

After all, he didn't want to see that useless younger brother and lunatic elder brother ever again.

With this cargo, he could establish himself anywhere he went.

With that thought, Chen Yin's palm became fiercer, faster.

At the same time, his palm expanded, overshadowing the tops of the heads of the two girls clutched together.

But just as it was about to fall upon them, Chen Yin's hand hesitated, as he glanced behind him.

At some point, a tall and muscular figure had appeared there.

Chen Yin sneered.

He recognized Mu Bai.

Decent skills, considered a martial artist who completed 'Tendon and Muscle Refinement', but still not at 'Bone Tempering'.

Moreover, the techniques were crude.

For someone like him who had long completed 'Bone Tempering', he could kill the opponent in one move.

Appearing here now, it must be Li Deshang who hired help.

But truly useless Li Deshang, to only bring someone of this caliber.

He thought the Northern Li Family would intervene.

Now it seems that Li Deshang was just bluffing all along.

'Should I also go back and take care of Li Deshang while at it?'

Chen Yin pondered wildly.

Once exposed, Chen Yin had no scruples left.

What remained, was madness.

Or perhaps... a yearning for freedom.

He always thought he was wasted in Mountain City, and only a broader world was his true stage and destiny.

Therefore, despite tonight's deal being discovered, Chen Yin didn't panic in the slightest.

In fact, there was a hint of joy.

Because he believed it was his destiny.

"Let me use you as a sacrifice for my departure!"

With his halted hand, Chen Yin swung it back, attacking while contemplating where to head next.

Should I take those unexpected goods along?

At this point, it wouldn't matter anyway.

On the journey, they could provide some amusement, perhaps even some unexpected gains.

Facing the long-anticipated fate, Chen Yin, a 'Bone Tempering' martial artist, couldn't help but have his thoughts run wild, becoming indecisive.

Martial artists in combat must not become distracted.

This was something his teacher had once told him.

And gave him the most direct example.

It was by exploiting a moment of distraction that he managed to kill his own teacher—a clueless old idiot who dared obstruct his business. Dead meant dead, not leaving anything behind but being dog food.

Recalling the horrified face of his teacher, he couldn't help but grin.

It was truly satisfying.

And now?

He was about to see a similar expression again.

'Tendon and Muscle' versus 'Bone Tempering'.

The former is doomed.

Unless the techniques are intricate, survival is unlikely.

But, Chen Yin had seen Mu Bai in action.

His Tiger-shape Fist, though somewhat imposing, was rudimentary.

Thus, Chen Yin was full of contempt.

He believed that even if Jason were clad in iron armor, he wouldn't escape death.

After all, his 'Mountain Shaking Fist Energy' feared no such defenses.

Specifically targeting iron armor and leather armor.

Even when faced with Horizontal Training, it would still prevail.

Whoosh!

With a swoosh that was even more stifling than before, accompanied by Chen Yin's sinister laughter.

But then, his laughter was abruptly cut off.

And with it, the whistling of the palm force.

Chen Yin's sneer froze on his face as he blankly stared at his wrist, gripped by a large hand.
