I Have Medicine

oment, a silvery-white spear immediately appeared in Tianheng's hand.

Then Gongyi Tianheng pushed against the tree branch with his foot.
He drew the spear and flourished it [2].
He advanced towards the wild beast at Dragon Two's location to stab it: “Dragon Two, go protect Ah Zuo.”

Dragon Two promptly withdrew: “Yes, young master.”

In an instant, an extra vigilant shadow appeared by Gu Zuo's side.

After observing a momentary three seconds of silence for his weak chicken self, Gu Zuo didn't make trouble for Dragon Two's precautionary measures.
His attention was completely set on that wolf-shaped wild beast and his patron “comparing notes.”

At this time, his patron was deeply concerned for him.
And naturally, he was wholeheartedly concerned for his patron.

Gu Zuo thought in pa.s.sing that after those couple of wild wolves were taken care of, how he would cook the wolf meat… En, he still recognized these wild wolves.
Before when he was refining medicine at the villa, it just so happened that their liver was a metal attribute medicinal ingredient.
Thinking about the choicest meats of these storm wolves [3], there were several medicinal cuisine recipes he could choose from…

Gongyi Tianheng's spearmanship was very concise.

Piercing and flogging.
Obstructing and confining.
There wasn't a single flaw in his efficiency as he directly aimed at their vital points.

That wild wolf attack was comprised of as many as five wolves.
Meridian Condensing first stage Xu Wenhe clashed with several Bone Forging realm wild wolves.
It was only Gongyi Tianheng who selected the head wolf among them, which was similarly Meridian Condensing second stage.

Usually, wild beasts initially would, more often than not, be stronger than martial artists of equivalent realms.
However, apparently Tianheng here defied common sense.

Just by watching his footwork change, his figure seemed like a water dragon.
As his spear trembled, his body appeared to shine.
Just like a tidal surge, it looked like an especially vigorous dragon snake coming ash.o.r.e [4].

Where in this spectacle did Tianheng resemble the former young master who'd been frail for over ten years?

This world's wolves were very cunning and lived in packs.
The head wolf was especially powerful.
It dodged at extremely fast speeds like it was riding the wind.
Its claws and fangs shone with a ghastly, cold light.
Murderously lunging to and fro, an unpleasant stink [5] spread everywhere.

It was a pity that the spear was very long, the spearhead was very sharp, and the spear's force was very powerful.
Gongyi Tianheng's spearmanship was like a dragon.
It glinted like a cold star, and his strikes often aimed at the head wolf's vital points.

Not long after, it was suppressed.
Instead of the head wolf being finished, there were several places on its body that were punctured by that spear and flowed with blood.
For a moment, its bloodl.u.s.t rose up, fully revealing its malice.
Its movement was even more vicious.

But Gongyi Tianheng wasn't fl.u.s.tered.
His expression was very calm and his spear abruptly came crashing down with a dreadful cracking sound.
That head wolf immediately jumped away, but it was still struck on its side.
Its bones broke in two!

Then from that point on, Tianheng gained the upper hand.
That head wolf's dominance gradually declined.
Soon, its eyes flickered with a green light, wanting to retreat.

Tianheng wouldn't allow it, and the spear was swung at it from the side.

The world had too many kinds of martial skills to count, and there were many that needed to draw support from weapons to be utilized.
Tianheng automatically took advantage of the weapon in his hand and chose the corresponding martial skill.

And because his IQ was just so high, it seemed that he never had too much difficulty no matter what weapon was in his hand.
He could emulate any martial skill no matter what kind he practiced.

With Gongyi Tianheng's intelligence, he certainly wouldn't go through all of them — Though, he didn't think it was the right time to start laying the foundations.
Thus, he chose the most handy ones among them.

Namely, he favored those of the spear.

As a result, he studied the ancient records of the Gongyi Clan.
He read them one by one and gradually realized that, although each one contained marvels, all of them ultimately were of a mid foundation level.

Therefore, he carefully deliberated.
He would master spearmanship by comprehensive studying.
He used his own practices to tinker with a kind of incomplete move set.
However, it totally suited him.
Its trajectories were concise, and its power was tyrannical.
It was a kind of spearmanship that was filled with killing intent.

Looking at him fully utilizing it now, one could see that his considerations weren't lacking.

The methods of that incomplete spearmanship exhibited an overbearing might at this moment.

Not long after, Gongyi Tianheng struck with his spear.
The tip pierced the center of the head wolf's right eye, and the pain made it want to flee.
Tianheng struck down his spear again.
It entered the wolf's abdomen and abruptly twisted!

At this moment, he poured all his strength into the spear haft.
Naturally, the spear's power rose to frightful levels.
Instantly, the head wolf's body was overturned by that spear.
Just as it staggered, it quickly reacted, but it was already a half step too slow.
The spear came again, and pierced the wolf's vital point.
The spear took its life!

That Xu Wenhe's movements were also agile.

Although he looked like a scholarly guide, he could be brought along with Gongyi Tianheng.
Naturally, his experience was abundant.
Though his speed was a little slower than Tianheng, how could he not cope with a couple of insignificant Bone Forging realm wild beasts? He was all done within the span of several breaths.

The wild beasts that mounted a sneak attack were all cleanly killed.

Gongyi Tianheng placed his spear to the side and jumped onto the tree to take Gu Zuo down.

Gu Zuo was still a little fired up.
After he came down, the first sentence he asked was: “Young master Tianheng, how do you guys want to eat the wolf meat?”

Gu Zuo belatedly reacted after he spoke, his face blushing red.
