A small wooden stick naturally held very little power, but with all the beatings he had taken, his face had swollen like a pig's Even his eyes had beco his vision

Black and green bruises marred his skin while so Even his joints had received preferential treatment from Qin Mu

Qin Mu had purposely ai the ligahtpain

Being beaten to death by a s Since one wouldn't die straightaway, their pain and fear would increase by several ti

The beast herd that had been running above their heads was nowhere to be seen now, having had dispersed the ate to the ruins

Qin Mu's strength was also di his 'knife' around, but he couldn't continue doing so After all, not only had he constantly dodged Senior Brother Qu's sword, he had also been avoiding the hooves and claws of the giants beasts they had been fighting under His legs were also sore and swollen froular footwork

Even though Butcher's training frequently consisted of bouts of insanity, he still understood that Qin Mu had his limits and would never train him past the point of exhaustion

Qin Mu no longer had the strength to continue swinging his knife and was relying on just pure willpower to keep going

He knew that, as long as Senior Brother Qu had even the slightest bit of vital qi re, it was his head that would roll!

But he couldn't His ligaments and tendons were a complete mess He couldn't even lift a muscle

Paralysed, Senior Brother Qu could only watch as Qin Mu struggled to adjust the direction of his treasure sword and kick it towards his neck

It scraped against the ground, dragging dirt along as it moved in little increments towards Senior Brother Qu until, with one final kick, it pierced through his neck

Blood flowed, pooling around the wound as he struggled to breathe and gurgled through the blood welling from his throat

Relief washed over Qin Mu His limbs went limp and he collapsed to the floor He had never been so exhausted before
