Chapter 15

Guo Hu's attacks had become disorganized and chaotic, and the game "Mount and Blade" made him realize he had made a huge mistake!

In the Republic of China, there were three martial arts that were widely popular: Xingyi, Tai Chi, and Bagua.

These three martial arts were so popular because three grandmasters had promoted them—Xingyi's Guo Yunshen, Bagua's Dong Haichuan, and Tai Chi's Yang Luchan.

Other martial arts like Bajiquan, Wing Chun, Hung Gar, Mizong, and Tanglang were slightly inferior.

The Half-Step Crushing Fist was created by Xingyi's great master Guo Yunshen while he was imprisoned and shackled. Its power was astonishing.

Due to the iron chains, his steps were often limited to half a step, hence the name "Half-Step Crushing Fist."

It was the strongest technique in Xingyi, known as the "Half-Step Crushing Fist that Conquers the World."

Its status in the world of martial arts during the Republic of China was akin to the Nine Yin Manual, Nine Yang Manual, and the Plum Blossom Manual in Jin Yong's wuxia, and the Compassionate Sword Canon, War God Chart, Heavenly Demon Strategy, and Longevity Decree in Huang Yi's wuxia.

Guo Qingyang refused to use the Half-Step Crushing Fist even at the cost of his life because he understood this well.

An ordinary man is not guilty, but one who possesses a treasure is!

If the Guo family were just an ordinary family, the players' pursuit would be more relaxed, and the descendants and disciples might have a chance to escape;

But if it were known that the Guo family was descended from Guo Yunshen and privately possessed the Half-Step Crushing Fist... the Guo family's descendants and disciples would become targets for all the players in the world, and none of them would likely survive.

The secret that his father had risked his life to keep was so easily revealed by him, and Guo Hu's mind instantly became chaotic.

With his mind in chaos, his movements became disordered. As the main force, his failure made it even harder for the others to hold on.

The battle situation quickly reversed.

The Guo family's disciples, except for the fourth elder brother, were all tough, and even in such a dire situation, no one surrendered or gave up. However, the situation was stronger than their will.

Their injuries gradually accumulated, and their stamina was constantly drained, making it increasingly difficult for them to stand. They had the will to fight, but lacked the strength to turn the tide...

Of course, they, like the immortals, could take medicine, but the effects of the medicine in their bodies were completely different from those in the players' bodies.

In their bodies, the effects of the medicine lasted for hours, while in the players' bodies, they lasted for seconds. How could they be the same?

They were kicked to the ground one by one by "Mount and Blade," rolling and crawling.

"Mount and Blade" laughed heartily: "You NPCs are really stubborn. Wouldn't it be better to submit honestly? Why hide anything? Why rebel? You're just asking for trouble."

"Fine, since that's the case, I won't be polite! You don't want me to touch Guo Xingxing, but I will today, and I'll taste the flavor of your Guo family's little princess, the most beautiful woman in Quanzhou County."

"And... I'll do it right in front of you! Let you all watch, hahaha... no need to thank me, consider it a treat for you."

"The condemned get a last meal before execution, so consider this your last meal. Enjoy the view!" He laughed lewdly and shamelessly.

The disciples' eyes turned red with anger, their hair standing on end, but... what use was it?

The more angry they were, the more disorganized their movements became, and the more disorganized they were, the easier they were to defeat.

Sigh... This is the kind of player I'm fighting for, fighting with, Mu Canyang sighed deeply.

It's said that when the multiple game worlds first opened, players weren't like this.

No one knows when it started, but players began to consider themselves gods, and NPCs became slaves. They fought each other until now.

Just as he was lost in thought, he felt a soft girl rise up.

"Mount and Blade's" words made Guo Xingxing's face pale, her teeth clenched.

The tears streaming down her face washed away the mud and dirt, revealing her fair skin, outlining a face that Mu Canyang could recognize.

She had a slightly round, baby-faced, adorable face, her skin as white as snow, and even in the dim light of the fire, it remained pale and cold like the moon.

But what was most eye-catching were her eyebrows, soft and tender, charming and cute, making one want to get close, even to touch them, to see if they were real...

Mu Canyang knew what beauty was, no one knew better than he did.

The length of the eyes was 24-26 millimeters, the upper and lower eyelids were 9-11 millimeters, the distance between the eyes was 31-35 millimeters, and the distance from the outer corner of the eye to the side of the face was 20-23 millimeters.

The inner corner should be sharp, the angle of the eyelid should be 48-55 degrees, the outer corner should be between 60-70 degrees, and the outer corner should be 2-3 millimeters higher than the inner corner, making it slightly upturned, with the line connecting the corners of the eyes forming a 10-degree angle with the horizontal line.

This was just part of the data for the eyes. If he were to recite it, he could recite an entire book.

There was no way around it; this was his former standard for judging beauty.

But now he knew that all of that was futile.

To judge whether a girl was beautiful, you didn't need so much data; you just needed two words—feeling.

This girl... so beautiful!

Although some aspects didn't strictly conform to the standards of beauty, such as the relatively straight outer corners of her eyes, this gave her a unique, cute and innocent look.

She was... so beautiful. No wonder she caught the players' attention.

Mu Canyang was captivated by Guo Xingxing, forgetting the fight around him, forgetting his decision to run, forgetting his precarious life...

Until Guo Xingxing came close to him.

The continuous blows and the cruel future seemed not to have broken this girl.

Guo Xingxing reached out to untie his bindings: "This person's target is us, you... run quickly, you might still have a chance to escape."

Her movements suddenly stopped.

Before she could exert any force, the wild-looking youth in front of her flipped his wrist and freed himself.

The next second, her hands were in his, and he pinched them: "Do you want to live? Do you want revenge?"

Is this guy crazy? Guo Xingxing was stunned, lifting her large, clear eyes to look at Mu Canyang, only to see a determined face and deep, unfathomable eyes. She involuntarily nodded: "Yes!"

Little did she know, at that moment, Mu Canyang was truly out of his mind, his thoughts in turmoil.

Damn! This is what it means to be blinded by beauty, to be infatuated? How could I say such things?

I want to live, I want to live well, I don't want to get involved in the grudges between players and NPCs.

But why are my steps so heavy? Why are my legs so heavy? Why... do words come out of my mouth without my control?

"If you want to, then do as I say!" He leaned close to Guo Xingxing's ear, and with great effort, he resisted the urge to lick her flower-like, tender ear, and slowly spoke.

"Is, is that all? Is it that simple?" Guo Xingxing looked up, full of doubt.

"Definitely, as long as you do as I say." Mu Canyang nodded confidently.

In his heart, he was lamenting: This trick is as difficult as making a giant python swallow something so big that its jaw dislocates.

Impulse is the devil!

Human emotions are truly deadly!
