“Yes!”

Su Jingxing didn’t stop moving as he responded inwardly. In the blink of an eye, he arrived beside Shi Yanfeng.

“No, no, you can’t kill me!”

The shocked Shi Yanfeng shouted in fear, “I’m a genius of the Shi Family, the next patriarch. If you kill me, the Shi Family won’t let you off! The Shi Family won’t let you off!”

As he shouted, his voice became hoarse.

“I know.” Su Jingxing began calmly. “You said earlier, you must die.”

“…”

Shi Yanfeng was stunned for a moment, then his whole body trembled as he begged with difficulty, “I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was just joking just now, Big Brother, no, Grandpa, Grandpa! Grandpa, I was wrong, I didn’t mean to kill you, it’s really a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, Grandpa1!”

He struggled to get up and kowtow.

“It’s okay,” Su Jingxing said indifferently. “It doesn’t matter whether it’s a misunderstanding or not.”

“Yes, yes. Grandpa, you’re absolutely right.” Shi Yanfeng squeezed out a smile.

“But you were right about one thing.” Su Jingxing continued coolly.

Shi Yanfeng was stunned and said in a trembling voice, “Grand…”

“Exactly. Only the dead can keep secrets.” Su Jingxing held up his treasure weapon. “And once you’re dead, it’ll save effort for both of us.”

“No, no!”

Shi Yanfeng’s entire body trembled as he pushed himself backward on the ground. He shouted in horror, “No, no, no, I was joking. You can’t kill me! You can’t…”

Swoosh!

Plkch!

The treasure weapon streaked through the air, and a head flew up from the ground.

[Corpse discovered. Would you like to extract it?]

“Yes!”

Su Jingxing responded inwardly and put away his treasured weapon. He glanced at Du Liangjing, who was standing rooted to the ground and did not react for a long time. Without saying a word, he pushed the tip of his toes and rushed towards the wall at high speed. With a flash, he climbed over the wall and left.

Hu~

The night breeze carried the scent of blood around the courtyard.

Du Liangjing, who was frozen on the spot with a dazed look on his face, suddenly jolted back to his senses.

“Ah!”

His legs were weak. On the ground, he hurriedly scooted backwards. As he did, and frantically got to his feet.

Something has happened…

Something big has happened!

Just from looking at Shi Yanfeng’s head, Du Liangjing’s heart beat wildly. It felt as if it was about to jump out of his throat.

Shi Yanfeng, a genius of the Shi Family, was killed in the dojo. Once this matter blows up, no one can hide anything, no one can escape.

Shi Yanfeng is dead, the Shi Family will definitely go crazy and cause a bloody storm.

Du Liangjing didn’t dare to think further. Just the thought of it made his scalp go numb.

Presently, he only had one thought in his mind——run!

Escape in the dark of the night, leave Qinghe City, away from Changyang Prefecture, the further the better!

Staggering out of the dojo, he had no other thoughts but to flee for his life.

He rushed into the car parked by the side of the road. After starting it up, it shot out like a rocket and headed out of the city.

Boom!

The loud sound of the car flying off echoed through the streets.

On the roof of a building beside the dojo, Su Jingxing looked at the fleeing Du Liangjing and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Su Jingxing hadn’t killed him, because one, there were no grudges between them, and two, letting Du Liangjing go would bring some trouble to the Shi Family.

Shi Yanfeng was not Shi Yankai. The Shi Family would definitely be furious that he was dead.

When they launch an investigation in a fit of anger, the first person to be found would be Du Liangjing.

Now that Du Liangjing had escaped and the Shi Family was chasing after him, it would take at least three to five days for them before they captured him. If Du Liangjing was able to hide well, it would be possible for things to drag out for half a month.

Su Jingxing didn’t ask for much. Just having the Shi Family to run around for six to seven days without making any progress and then going berserk was enough.

As for whether Du Liangjing would betray him after being captured.

Su Jingxing was not worried at all.

From the beginning to the end, he did not reveal his face. Even when he spoke, he deliberately lowered and roughened his voice.

If the Shi Family wished to be led to him with these features, they would probably succeed in their dreams!

…

Su Jingxing stood at the top of the building and only left when he saw someone entering the White River Dojo at dawn. He returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

He took out the nine cards he had extracted, held them in his hand, and read the information.

Soon, he learned the contents.

One Skill Card, one True Energy Card, one Bloodline Card, and the rest were Internal Force Cards.

The Skill Card contained a martial arts skill, Split Eagle Claw . It was similar to the Cold Smoke Mantra and also belonged to the Shi Family. There was only the first half of the skill available. Su Jingxing took a look and put it into his palm space.

The True Energy Card came from Elder Zhu and contained eight years of cultivation. This was a good harvest.

All the Internal Force Cards added up to have 40 years of cultivation.

Su Jingxing also stored them into his palm space. When he had accumulated enough a hundred years of cultivation, he would unlock them in one go to absorb and convert into Heaven Trampling True Energy.

The final Bloodline Card most probably came from Shi Yanfeng.

Just as with Shi Yankai, it held the Three Yin Candles Blood.

However, this time, Su Jingxing sensed that it seemed to contain more of the Three Yin Candles Blood.

To verify this, Su Jingxing took out the Bloodline Card that he had extracted previously. Then, he unlocked it and got a soybean-sized, pale white blood pearl in his palm.

He then unlocked the Bloodline Card from Shi Yanfeng and obtained a blood pearl the size of a longan fruit.

In comparison, it was obvious that the Bloodline Card he had extracted from Shi Yanfeng’s corpse contained more Three Yin Candles Blood!

“Is this the reason why Shi Yanfeng is a genius?” Su Jingxing wondered.

The more Three Yin Candles Blood one possesses, the faster his cultivation speed would be, so it would make sense.

Su Jingxing observed the blood pearls for a moment before putting them away in his palm.

The flaw of the Three Yin Candles Blood made Su Jingxing lose all interest in it.

“Hmm? Something is happening?”

All of a sudden, Su Jingxing sensed something unusual in the storage space in his palm.

As soon as he sent his consciousness into it, he was greeted by a shocking sight.

The little wooden sword!

The indestructible wooden sword, which had not seen any chances for decades, was now emitting a misty green light.

Su Jingxing knew that it would release green light.

However, the green light this time was exceptionally dense and affected an even larger area.

From the little wooden sword, it extended to the two blood pearls three meters away, the blood pearls…

The blood pearls seem to be attracted and rolling?

Su Jingxing was stunned.

At the next moment, he thought quickly and controlled the two blood pearls with his will to roll to the side of the little wooden sword.

Then…

Whish! Whish!

Accompanied by two strange sounds, the blood pearls formed from the Three Yin Candles Blood were actually absorbed by the little wooden sword!

Absorption in its truest sense, they had directly disappeared into the little wooden sword.

This sword has intelligence!

A self-consciousness would be exaggerated. It was almost an instinctive intelligence that was reflected and verified in this moment.

“Spirit weapon?”

An existence popped up in Su Jingxing’s mind.

The strongest weapons on Earth Star since ancient times—spirit weapons!

“I can’t believe that this little wooden sword is actually a spirit weapon. No wonder…”

It was no wonder that it cannot be broken with a knife or fire, water won’t wet it, and soil cannot bury it. Even after hundreds of years, there were no changes.

Because it was a spirit weapon!
