This was just an ordinary farmhouse, with a courtyard wall only a little over two meters, not quite three meters high.
He leaped over and entered the courtyard.
The person inside heard the sound in the courtyard and immediately stopped Cultivating. He picked up an alloy long staff beside him and rushed out of the house.
Seeing Zhang Haoran in the courtyard, dressed in Martial Dao attire with a long sword at his waist, he knew without asking that Zhang Haoran was there to kill him.
He saw that Zhang Haoran was just a youth. Although his Qi and Blood were higher than his own, he appeared to be a First Rank Peak.
At this moment, it was either him or me. The person didn't waste words, swinging his long staff to strike at him.
He saw that the opponent was using a low-level staff technique, and his Qi and Blood burst was only around 30 cal.
As the long staff approached him, Zhang Haoran raised his leg and stepped, dodging the strike.
When the opponent intended to change his move and Sweep, he quickly extended his left hand and grabbed the long staff.
At the same time, he raised his right foot and pointed it towards the opponent's right hand holding the staff.
Although the opponent had tempered his upper limb bones, he still didn't want to be kicked by an alloy shoe.
This was still with him controlling the speed of his kick. Otherwise, if he used his full strength, how could the opponent have dodged?
The person could only release his right hand, and then Zhang Haoran's toes turned and kicked his left hand.
The opponent could only throw away the long staff and charge forward with both hands clenched into fists.
He grabbed the long staff with his left hand and flung it away. His right hand curled into a claw, with a faint white glow emanating from between his five fingers. His five fingers also took on a ghastly pale color.
Meeting the opponent's attacking punch, Zhang Haoran countered with a claw.
When the fist and claw met, the opponent let out a miserable scream. His Nine Yin White Bone Claw had actually torn five bloody holes in the opponent's fist.
One must know that the opponent had tempered his upper limbs and had reached First Rank Peak.
This also meant that Zhang Haoran's Minor Achievement Nine Yin White Bone Claw could tear through alloy.
But thinking about it, if a unique skill cultivated to Minor Achievement couldn't break through the bones tempered by a First-Rank Martial Artist, then what was the point of Cultivating it?
This was Zhang Haoran's first time using the Nine Yin White Bone Claw on a person.
Although the person's right fist was torn by him, it was a life-or-death situation now. The opponent couldn't care less.
He swung his fist and charged again. Zhang Haoran also fully unleashed his Nine Yin White Bone Claw, waving both claws continuously. He tore the opponent's hands, breaking bones and tendons, sending flesh and blood flying.
This time, Zhang Haoran had no intention of holding back. He tore dozens more bloody holes in the opponent's body. Seeing that the opponent was about to fall, he used the ultimate move of the Nine Yin White Bone Claw. He used force with his five fingers and directly tore through the opponent's skull.
Looking at the opponent's corpse lying on the ground, he felt a slight pity. Why couldn't he have held on a little longer?
He had just started to get a feel for the Nine Yin White Bone Claw.
He searched the corpse, but there was nothing on it. He then searched the house and found a Second-Rank Viscera Protecting Pill and a Second-Rank Qi and Blood Pill.
He was only missing a Second-Rank Bone Tempering Pill to Breakthrough to Second-Rank.
He also found 200,000 in cash in the house; there was nothing else of value.
He threw everything into his storage space. He took out his phone and called the Detective Bureau.
He asked them to send people to confirm and also bring him a set of Martial Dao attire. This was the only downside of the Nine Yin White Bone Claw. It splattered blood all over him, and now his hands were also covered in blood.
Not long after, the Detective Bureau arrived. Zhang Haoran took the clothes they brought and went inside to change into a Martial Dao attire.
The alloy long staff was inconvenient to carry, so he also asked them to take it back and count it directly into the reward.
At this time, the Detective Bureau also brought Zhang Haoran good news. The two cultists were found in a restaurant, and the restaurant was not far from here.
When he heard this, he thought, "There's such a good thing?" He decided to go and see.
Zhang Haoran found his car, opened the car door, and threw his long sword inside.
It was midday, and carrying a long sword to eat would definitely arouse suspicion.
He walked leisurely towards the restaurant with his hands in his pockets.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, he felt that the atmosphere was a bit off.
Zhang Haoran found a table close to the entrance and sat down. At this moment, the waiter came over. He casually ordered a few dishes. He took out money from his pocket, which was actually from his storage space. Fortunately, he got 200,000 in cash today, otherwise, he would still have no cash.
But eating in such a small restaurant, swiping a bank card would be a bit inappropriate; this was also experience.
After ordering, Zhang Haoran sat there slowly waiting. In reality, his attention was completely focused on the two cultists in front.
He felt something was wrong when he entered the restaurant, so he had been suppressing his Qi and Blood fluctuations.
These two cultists were actually sitting at the same table. And the look in their eyes didn't seem very friendly.
Zhang Haoran leaned his ear to listen. Although their voices were very low, he could still hear the general idea.
It turned out that the two were arguing because their proselytizing areas overlapped.
The general meaning was that they hoped the other party would withdraw from Xiaogang Village.
Gradually, the two couldn't agree and prepared to 'talk with their hands.' The First Rank high-stage one had been threatening the First Rank mid-stage one.
However, the First Rank mid-stage one seemed to have a lot of confidence and wasn't afraid of the other party.
Finally, the two decided to have a physical negotiation. They got up and walked out of the restaurant. From their previous words, it was clear they were going out of the village to have a contest, and whoever lost would get out.
Zhang Haoran no longer had the mood to eat. He told the waiter that he didn't need the dishes and that he had something to do.
To avoid being discovered, he waited for about two minutes before leaving the restaurant. Although he could no longer see anyone, he wasn't flustered at all.
After leaving the restaurant, Zhang Haoran activated scene recall and confirmed the direction the two had left the village.
He walked towards the outskirts of the village. Not long after leaving Xiaogang Village, he heard the shouts of two people from behind a small mound.
Zhang Haoran didn't go over immediately. He let them fight for a while. With the level of these two, they weren't worth him practicing with.
Moreover, he wanted to capture them alive to see if he could extract some information.
Zhang Haoran stood on this side of the small mound, using the Earth Divine Script to sense the opponents.
Both were just ordinary First-Rank Martial Artists and didn't have much Qi and Blood. So, the winner was decided quickly. However, what he didn't expect was that the First Rank mid-stage one actually won.
In his perception, the First Rank high-stage one was clutching his chest and spitting blood.
From the looks of it, if he were to recover from his injuries, it would take at least several months.
However, the First Rank mid-stage one wasn't much better; his Qi and Blood were almost depleted, less than 100 cal.
Zhang Haoran knew it was time for him to act.
He used Cloud Step, quickly arrived in front of the two, and raised his hands to seal their acupoints, using the Acupoint Sealing chapter of the Nine Yin Manual.
After sealing the two, he carried one in each hand and continued to run into the distance.
He ran for another kilometer, and Xiaogang Village was no longer visible.
Zhang Haoran put the two down next to an old graveyard.
Looking at the two on the ground, he began to hesitate.
What made Zhang Haoran hesitate was whether to directly act and use Dividing Tendons and Misplacing Bones Hand for interrogation?
Or use the Soul Shifting Great Technique? However, he only knew about the Soul Shifting Great Technique but hadn't practiced it much, and he had nowhere to practice it.
