My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

183 The Aftermath

Puff!

The hand knife wrapped in flames was pulled out from Wu Zian’s body.

Wu Zian grunted and stared at Qin Huai with eyes that were like copper bells. His eyes were filled with disbelief. “You cheated. Your ancestors…”

But before he finished speaking, the flames in his chest suddenly rose and rushed into his internal organs from the hole.

“Ah!”

In an instant, Wu Zian turned into a man of fire. He shouted himself hoarse, but what he spat out in the air was no longer human language, but sparks.

Qin Huai’s eyes were sharp, and his hands were quick. He tore off a piece of cloth from Wu Zian’s chest, then tapped his toes lightly and instantly pulled away from Wu Zian.

There was a stack of silver notes in his hand, about twenty thousand taels of silver. The silver notes had the seal of the Great Nether Treasure Shop on them.

He watched Wu Zian burn. The flames surged from both inside and outside. There was no chance of survival.

Very soon, the blurry figure in the flames dissipated, turning into nourishment for all things in the world along with the spring breeze.

The next moment, two experience orbs merged into Qin Huai’s body.

“Ding! You have collected a [Four-directional Tiger-Wolf Technique Essence (Orange)], [Four-directional Tiger-Wolf Technique] Experience +18888!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Four-directional Tiger-Wolf Technique Comprehension], [Tiger-Wolf Force] +2%!”

As expected of the proud son of heaven of Lingjiang.

Qin Huai looked at his experience points. After this battle, the four-directional tiger-wolf technique instantly broke through to the sixth refinement level. He had even earned twenty thousand taels of silver for nothing.

Qin Huai looked at the place that had been reduced to ashes and felt a little regretful. He had just seen many burnt scraps, which were obviously all kinds of treasures and gold and silver.

Next, he might have to study the structure of Lingjiang’s clothes and see where they sewed their pockets.

While Qin Huai’s mind was in turmoil, Li Buhu, who was watching from the side, was dumbfounded. He had yet to react.

Everything happened too quickly. The battle that was originally evenly matched was about to end, but the former Lingjiang genius was instantly ended by his brother-in-law.

Li Buhu frowned and pondered. He thought back to the moment Qin Huai entered this shabby alley and the end of the battle.

It seemed like Wu Zian and the others had ambushed his brother-in-law, but in fact, it was his brother-in-law who had ambushed Wu Zian. From poisoning, showing weakness, mental state killing, to the final sneak attack, Brother-in-law could be said to have used everything. Everything was under his control.

“Brother-in-law. I’m starting to understand.”

“Oh?” Qin Huai looked at Li Buhu, who was covered in blood.

“Strength is only one of the factors that determine the outcome of a battle. Making the best use of everything and fighting to the death without any restrictions is the true martial arts. I was too reserved in the past,” Li Buhu said in a deep voice.

If it weren’t for his brother-in-law, he would have died here long ago.

He and his brother-in-law were clearly on the same level, but he felt that the biggest reason for the huge difference in combat strength was that he was too feudal and conservative.

“You’re worth teaching.” Qin Huai patted Li Buhu’s shoulder in relief.

“People often say that a battle between life and death will allow a martial artist to advance rapidly. I didn’t believe it before, but now I understand. Every battle requires thinking and conclusion.” Li Buhu’s eyes gradually became clear.

He looked at Qin Huai, and his eyes slowly lit up with flames of passion. After walking through the gates of hell today, he had some signs of enlightenment.

“Buhu! Buhu!”

A hurried voice came from afar. The ground collapsed, and the owner of the anxious voice ran all the way, causing chaos.

In the next second, a man covered in blood appeared in their eyes. It was the fourth head of the Li family, Li Zeshi, who was supposed to protect Qin Huai.

“Are you alright…” Li Zeshi’s eyes reddened when he saw Li Buhu covered in blood.

“I’m fine.” Li Buhu bared his teeth, but now that he had turned into a bloody man, he revealed a mouthful of white teeth, which made people’s hearts ache even more.

“Qin Huai, what exactly happened? How did my son become like this?” Li Zeshi looked at Qin Huai, who was completely unharmed, and his anger surged.

“Old man, I won’t allow you to talk to Brother-in-law like that!” Before Qin Huai could speak, Li Buhu stood in front of him. “If Brother-in-law didn’t kill Wu Zian, you wouldn’t be able to see me alive now.”

“Who is it? Wu Zian?” Li Zeshi was stunned.

He had not heard this name for a long time, but now that his son mentioned it again, he couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine.

“You said Qin Huai killed Wu Zian from the county governor’s mansion? What kind of joke is this? That brat has grasped the eighth refinement of force…”

Li Zeshi couldn’t believe it. He looked around but couldn’t find Wu Zian’s body.

“How can I lie to you about this?” Li Buhu bared his teeth. “Old man, did your brain get rusty from the beating? Also, didn’t you say that you were using Brother-in-law to bait us and protect us in secret? What are you protecting? If not for Brother-in-law being strong enough, I’m afraid I would have died here today!”

Li Buhu still had a lingering fear.

“Oh… I…” Li Zeshi’s face instantly flushed red. He did not dare to look Qin Huai in the eye again. “Did you really kill Wu Zian?”

“If Fourth Uncle doesn’t believe me, you’ll know after hearing the news in two days,” Qin Huai said calmly.

Li Zeshi looked at the young man in front of him with a complicated expression.

He did not witness the scene of Qin Huai killing Wu Zian with his own eyes, but he knew that even though Wu Zian had failed to break through to the bone pattern realm, his combat strength was not something an ordinary ninth refinement martial artist could compare to.

It was even more difficult to kill a prodigy of a higher realm. But Qin Huai did it… There was really a chance!
