The Shi Family had many ultimate techniques.
What the public knew were the Cold Smoke Mantra, the Split Eagle Claw, and the Nine Yin Soul-Shattering Sword.
Among them, the Nine Yin Soul-Shattering Sword was the most famous.
This sword technique was aggressive and sharp. When it struck out, cold winds blew, and it was bone-chilling.
Combined with the Cold Smoke True energy produced using the Cold Smoke Mantra, ordinary martial artists of the same level were no match for them at all.
If the sword energy were to enter one’s body, it would be even more difficult to remove.
With this sword technique, many members of the Shi Family gained an illustrious name.
Shi Jindong was one of them.
Shi Jindong, who was 50 years old this year, had once defeated a fifth-grade expert from the Northern District of Qinghe City with his sixth-grade realm.
What he relied on was the Nine Yin Soul-Shattering Sword.
It was said that although the fifth-grade expert from the Northern District had won, the cold and damp sword energy had entered his body, causing him to suffer a freezing torture day and night.
Now that Shi Jindong had been killed by Nie Renchou, it had undoubtedly highlighted Nie Renchou’s might!
…
The crematorium was in an uproar.
Su Jingxing looked for Feng Tiejian and took the truck to the scene.
Feng Tiejian thought that Su Jingxing wanted to watch the show in person, so he didn’t think too much about it. At this moment, he was also inexplicably excited.
Little did he know that Su Jingxing was going there to extract cards.
This was a corpse of a Shi Family member. If they do not beat the Shi Family to it, they would take the corpse back.
From an outsider’s point of view, the Shi Family was seeking for traces from the wounds to find the culprit.
But Su Jingxing knew that tracking down the murderer was only a part of the reason. It was more for the bloodline.
The Three Yin Candles Blood!
Was the Shi Family bringing the corpse back for fear that the Three Yin Candles Blood would leak out?
Or to test the purity and concentration of the bloodline?
Su Jingxing didn’t know nor care about these things.
The reason why he was rushing to the scene in advance was to extract the Bloodline Card.
Then, he would unlock it, obtain the blood pearl, and feed it to Thunderbolt so that this blood spirit weapon could recover sooner.
He went at the right time.
By the time the corpse transportation truck arrived at the scene, the Shi Family had already packed up Shi Jindong’s body and were preparing to leave.
[Corpse discovered. Would you like to extract it?]
“Yes!”
Su Jingxing leaned against the front of the car and replied inwardly. He stared as the Shi Family’s vehicle slowly accelerated and disappeared from his sight.
“F*ck, if I knew this would happen, I wouldn’t have come.” Feng Tiejian kicked the tire of the truck, looking gloomy.
“The Shi Family is really fast.” The driver sighed in agreement.
“Heh, so what if they’re fast? Shi Jindong is already dead, and everyone knows who killed him. Nie Renchou! If they have the capabilities, they should find Nie Renchou!” Feng Tiejian’s partner sneered.
“Speaking of Nie Renchou, this brother is really amazing. He doesn’t seem to be in the sixth-grade at all. He’s more like a fourth-grade.”
After venting his anger, Feng Tiejian regained his vigor and gloated, “Do you think he will continue to approach people from the Shi Family? The Shi Family has many experts who use swords like Shi Jindong!”
“I don’t think so.” The driver shrugged.
“If it were me, I would continue to approach the Shi Family members.” His partner said seriously and analyzed, “Think about it. According to cognitive inertia, since the Martial Suppression Office, the Shi Family, and the Radiant Sword Dojo are all looking for Nie Renchou, under normal circumstances, Nie Renchou would go into hiding.
“But if Nie Renchou doesn’t do that and instead takes the opportunity to go to them, the Shi Family will definitely be caught off guard! As long as Nie Renchou is fast enough, he can still escape easily after killing one or two more people!”
“That’s right.” Feng Tiejian clapped his hands and said excitedly, “It’s really like that. That is very possible! Looks like tonight will be lively!”
Su Jingxing was speechless.
It was indeed very possible for what Feng Tiejian’s partner had analyzed to happen.
But Su Jingxing could not stick with them anymore.
After a busy day and staying behind for half a night, it would be conspicuous if he still did not go home to sleep.
This was not the way to watch a show.
After all, no matter who Nie Renchou wanted to kill, it had nothing to do with Su Jingxing on the surface.
To Kong Dabao, Feng Tiejian, and the rest, Nie Renchou’s mass killing was nothing more than a very interesting topic of conversation.
Hence, Su Jingxing followed the truck back to the crematorium and knocked off.
Of course, before he left, he asked Feng Tiejian, who was on duty, to drop him a message if Nie Renchou continued to kill people in the latter half of the night.
Asking for a call would make him appear excessively concerned, but a text message was fine.
Compared to Earth, on Earth Star, crematoriums would be the first to receive the news if any person had died.
The people at the bottom rungs did not care about any grudges. They only knew that when corpses appeared, they had to be cremated as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if they were unlucky and the Corpse-raising Devil Insect Egg had gotten into the corpses immediately and turned them into Corpse Puppets, those suffering the most casualties would be ordinary people like them.
This was one of the reasons why Su Jingxing chose to stay in the crematorium.
News at the crematorium was the fastest and most convenient. They also had the most news!
…
Back at the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.
Su Jingxing ate a pill to relieve his fatigue and replenish his energy.
Then, he took out the card that he had extracted from Shi Jindong’s corpse and held it in his hand to read the information.
It was indeed a Bloodline Card!
He fed the bean-sized blood pearl that he obtained from unlocking the card to Thunderbolt.
Immediately after, he sensed the recovery speed of this blood spirit weapon. It was still far from enough.
Fortunately, Su Jingxing was mentally prepared and didn’t feel discouraged. He put away Thunderbolt and continued to bring out cards.
The Deduction Card he got from Ouyang Qinhu!
Unlocking it, he deduced the Saber Control with Energy section of the Colossal Divine Dagger.
Although the success rate of deducing the Earth Origin section of the Three Origins Saber Art was higher, till now, the Saber Control with Energy section of the Colossal Divine Dagger had helped Su Jingxing even more.
The Earth Origin volume of the Three Origins Saber Art was more suited for fighting in the wilderness.
In the city, throwing daggers were more suitable!
This was why Su Jingxing chose the Colossal Divine Dagger after comparing them.
In the end…
Not only had he successfully deduced the Energy section, he had also obtained a portion of the Mind section.
The reason why it was so efficient was because the three sections of the Colossal Divine Dagger were written on the same foundation.
The difference was mainly in the way one exerted one’s strength, true energy and mental power.
The same went for the three sections of the Three Origins Saber Art.
Su Jingxing was very satisfied with this.
Now that he had obtained the Energy section, he had to buy a throwing dagger.
Seeing that there was still time, Su Jingxing immediately changed into his equipment, got the dirty money, and headed straight to the black market. He found a weapon shop and bought three treasure throwing daggers.
As the throwing daggers were smaller, the price was lower. Three treasure throwing daggers cost a total of 8,880,000 dollars.
The ten million dollars of dirty money that Wan Rong left behind was used up.
In this aspect, Su Jingxing was very grateful to him.
The money for a treasure saber and three treasure throwing daggers were all paid by Wan Rong.
Mm, he was a “good person”!
…
Back at the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.
Su Jingxing controlled three throwing daggers and practiced the Energy section of the Colossal Divine Dagger.
Due to the foundation laid down by the Strength section, by daybreak, his mastery of the Energy section had successfully reached the introductory stage.
He put away the throwing daggers and washed up.
Just as he left the bathroom, his phone rang.
Su Jingxing picked up the call——
“Hahaha, Little Su, are you up yet? Let me tell you some shocking news.. Nie Renchou killed another fifth-grade expert!”
