Chapter 128: Success!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“I knew that the s.h.i.+ Family has quite a few fourth-grade martial artists.”
Faced with the old man and the old woman’s converging attack, Su Jingxing did not panic or fear. While he pondered inwardly, he decisively mobilized a hundred years of true energy cultivation.
Swoos.h.!.+
!!First, he slashed at the old man.
Ascending Dragon Overlord Slash, Human Origin section of the Three Origins Saber Art!
Boom!
The force of 100 years of Heaven Trampling True Energy gushed out along with the saber technique. It transformed into a ma.s.sive wave of saber energy in midair and swept out with an unparalleled aura.
Before it even got close, shock appeared on the old man’s face. In his haste, he didn’t dare to hold back any longer. He channeled all of his true energy into his palm and delivered it into the treasure weapon in his hand.
With a swing of his long sword, a cold and icy sword aura was born in an instant. It transformed into numerous poisonous snakes that met the violent saber energy head-on.
Boom!
Boom!
The moment the sword energy and saber energy collided,
Su Jingxing had already turned around and clashed head-on with the old woman.
He did not brandish his treasure weapon. Instead, he executed the Hundred Steps King Fist. Similarly, he unleashed a hundred years of cultivation to send a punch straight at the old woman.
A silvery-black fist imprint appeared almost instantly, charging towards the ashen-faced old woman.
The old woman brandished the longsword in her hand as sword energy sliced through the air in an attempt to shatter the fist imprint.
Unfortunately…
Bam!
Boom!
A dull thud soon followed with an explosion.
The surging shockwave swept the airflow and generated rings of visible energies that wreaked havoc in the pathway.
The old man and old woman were sent flying by the saber energy and fist imprint one after another. In midair, they vomited blood.
Before they fell to the ground, an even faster shockwave wrapped around them. While stirring up their protective true energies, it pushed backwards with an even more aggressive force.
With two loud bangs, the powerful impact slammed the old man and old woman hard into a metal wall.
The terrifying force created a dent in the wall, causing it to deform severely.
The old man and the old woman were embedded in the depression. Even though they were still alive, they were unable to move. Disbelief could be seen on their pale faces as blood flowed out from the corners of their mouths.
One slas.h.!.+
One punch?
They were all in the fourth-grade yet Su Jingxing had defeated the old man and the old woman with just one strike and one punch. This result was unacceptable to them.
Even though they could sense that the terrifying power contained in Su Jingxing’s slash and punch was not something that an ordinary fourth-grade martial artist could possess.
But it was precisely because of this that the old man and old woman found the outcome difficult to accept.
They couldn’t figure out how Su Jingxing had cultivated. How could someone’s true energy cultivation be so terrifying?
The earlier slash and punch contained at least 80… no, 90 years of cultivation!
Or rather, 100 years?
Fourth-grade with a hundred years of cultivation?
The old man and the old woman’s eyes were filled with shock at this thought.
“You…”
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
A shrill sound of air breaking abruptly sounded.
The old man who opened his mouth with difficulty to say something, only saw a flash of white light pa.s.s his eyes before he lost consciousness.
Plkch!
A throwing dagger penetrated his head.
Plkch!
Another throwing dagger penetrated the old woman’s head.
Fourth grade?
Under 100 years of Heaven Trampling True Energy cultivation, an ordinary fourth-grade was nothing more than this!
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Retracting the two throwing daggers, Su Jingxing walked towards the old man and old woman and extracted a card from each person.
Then, he held them in his palm and read the descriptions while observing his surroundings.
As expected, both cards were Bloodline Cards.
Putting the cards into his palm s.p.a.ce, Su Jingxing held his saber and continued moving deeper into the base.
Behind him——
“Kill! Kill all the members of the s.h.i.+ Family!”
“Haha, luckily we came in time. Otherwise, there’d be nothing left for us.”
“Old s.h.i.+, get out here!”
…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Angry yells, snarls, and explosions sounded constantly.
The rest of the convoys had arrived. They rushed into the base and started killing, reaping the gains.
At the last secret base, as Su Jingxing was in a hurry to save the girls and had no time to search around, he missed the opportunity to collect the loot.
He only had two leftover buckets of Corpse Dissolving Liquid that he brought out from the equipment warehouse left in his palm storage.
This time, Su Jingxing was not in a hurry. Naturally, he had time to reap the rewards.
Of course, before that, he had to find some people first.
Why did the s.h.i.+ Family capture Yi Yunru, Cai Gongxian, Ye Jiuchong and more but not kill them?
Su Jingxing searched with this curiosity. He killed all the guards and sacrificial soldiers he met and extracted cards.
Yet.
Even after Su Jingxing went deep into the base and searched every corner, he still couldn’t find where the people were imprisoned.
Along the way, he didn’t encounter a single expert from the s.h.i.+ Family.
It seemed that the old man and old woman were the only fourth-grade experts in this base. And they were in charge of everything.
The martial artists from the Stone Annihilation Alliance were nowhere to be seen.
As if they weren’t here to begin with.
Su Jingxing refused to believe this. He kept two people alive and questioned them on where the captives were locked up. The two guards actually answered that they didn’t know.
“You don’t know? How can you not know?”
Su Jingxing exerted strength in his hand and the treasure weapon he had against one of the guards’ neck quickly cut open the skin on his neck. Fresh blood flowed out.
“I really don’t know. Big Brother, Sir, Grandfather, I really don’t know!”
The guard’s entire body stiffened as he desperately begged for mercy. “We’re just ordinary guards. The area here isn’t under our jurisdiction. Every time there’s an important matter, such as certain treasures being stored, the members of the s.h.i.+ Family keep us away.”
“Yes, yes, each ordinary guard is responsible for a different area.” Another guard trembled as he added, “Sir, even if you kill us, we don’t know where the secrets of the base are. Of course, there’s a secret place that does exist here, but we don’t know where exactly. Only members of the s.h.i.+ Family do.”
“What about those sacrificial soldiers?” Su Jingxing continued probing.
“Sacrificial soldiers?” The guard was stunned for a moment before realizing what Su Jingxing was referring to. “Sir, you’re talking about the people from the s.h.i.+ King Guards, right? They do know more than us, but those people are all brainwashed and only listen to the orders of the s.h.i.+ Family. It’s impossible to get them to reveal their secrets, because they will commit s*icide immediately.”
“It’s not s*icide, it’s self-destruction!” The other guard continued, “Every member of the s.h.i.+ King Guards possesses a secret ability that allows them to explode their bodies. Once they are caught, or when they know that they are sure to die, they will choose to self-destruct. While seriously injuring their opponents, they will also protect the secrets of the s.h.i.+ Family.”
“They’re all crazy! They aren’t human!”
“Sir, you must be careful when you meet them. Those guys have a one-track mind and will not give you a chance to react. During the self-destruction, even a fourth-grade expert would be injured.”
Su Jingxing remained silent.
Clearly, the style of the s.h.i.+ King Guards was unexpected.
It seemed like Su Jingxing had been fast enough the last time he destroyed the s.h.i.+ Family’s secret base at Turtleback Mountain.
The sacrificial soldiers of the Stone King Guards also wanted to stop him and did not self-destruct immediately.
Otherwise, if they had planned to plot against the unguarded him, he wouldn’t have been able to save the girls so easily.
Of course, these two guards might still be holding back with the information they had shared, but that was basically everything.
Su Jingxing, who’s soul power had been significantly boosted, could tell whether or not they were lying.
Therefore, that the sacrificial soldiers of the s.h.i.+ King Guards could not be interrogated made things rather troublesome.
There was another secret place in the base, but few knew its exact location.
What to do?
“Big… big brother, no, great sir, l-look, I’ve already told you everything. Are you…”
The guards smiled stiffly and begged for mercy.
“Trying to leave?”
A low shout suddenly sounded.
Su Jingxing turned his head and saw five people armed with weapons walking towards him with murderous intent.
The leader was a burly man with a cold and domineering gaze.
As the group of people walked towards Su Jingxing, they shouted, “People from the s.h.i.+ Family, you’re thinking of leaving? You’re dreaming! And you… you…”
He could not bring himself to finish his sentence.
The burly man looked at Su Jingxing with shock, fear and wariness in his eyes.
“What about me?” Su Jingxing countered in a low voice.
“No… nothing.” The burly man laughed dryly and waved his hand. “We’re just pa.s.sing by. Yes, we’re just pa.s.sing by. Please continue, sir. We’ll leave first.”
With that, he turned around to escape.
“Yan, who scared you?”
An aged voice rang out. Another group of people walked over from behind the burly man.
The old man leading them narrowed his eyes and stared at the burly man with a shadow of a smile.
“Fourth Master Li, you came at the right time!”
The burly man, however, was delighted. Excitement appeared on his face. As he turned around, he pointed at Su Jingxing and introduced him to the old man, “Fourth Master Li, this big shot is here too. Didn’t you say you wanted to meet him? Now you both have really b.u.mped into each other this time.”
The old man’s expression changed when he heard this. When he got a clear look of Su Jingxing’s attire, the corners of his eyes twitched madly.
He wanted to retreat, but he realized that Su Jingxing was already looking at him. He quickly stopped and forced a smile. He cupped his hands at Su Jingxing and said, “So it’s Guest Elder Lin. What a coincidence. I didn’t expect you to be here too.”
“What? Guest Elder Lin is also here?”
Another voice sounded from behind the old man.
This time, it was the rough and deep male voice. When he heard the old man’s words, his footsteps immediately quickened and he walked over heavily.
After a while, a muscular man with resolute features and sharp eyes appeared in front of Su Jingxing.
The moment he appeared, he spotted Su Jingxing. His eyes lit up as he cupped his hands from a distance and said, “It’s really Guest Elder Lin. I didn’t expect to meet Guest Elder Lin here. This is great. I’m Zhou Wencen from the Zhou Family. Greetings, Guest Elder Lin.”
“Haha, I am Li Lilou from the Li Family. Greetings, Guest Elder Lin.” The old man quickly added and introduced himself.
“Um, my name is Yan Yuanfeng.” The burly man followed behind and introduced himself. “I’m the Deputy Sect Master of the Iron Thread Sect. If Guest Elder Lin does visit the Iron Thread Sect, I’ll definitely let you taste the best tea leaves.”
“Just tea leaves?” Zhou Wencen glanced at him and chuckled. “Don’t tell me you can’t bear to bring out your Iron Thread Silver Flower?”
“Of course I can. I’m only doing that when Guest Elder Lin comes.” Yan Yuanfeng scowled at Zhou Wencen.
Then, he looked at Su Jingxing and smiled apologetically. “Guest Elder Lin, don’t listen to this Zhou fellow sowing discord.”
“Hey, when did I…”
“That’s enough.” Su Jingxing interrupted their nonsense and said in a low voice, “You guys must have come here to rescue people too, right?”
Su Jingxing had thought wrong previously.
He had forgotten that according to the information provided by Shen Qian and the rest, the major factions in Qinghe City had sent many people to visit the s.h.i.+ Family estate at night. In the end, not a single person had returned.
These people were most likely captured here just like the martial artists from the Stone Annihilation Alliance.
Zhou Wencen, Li Lilou, and Yan Yuanfeng had brought men over firstly, to seize the opportunity to do some looting. And secondly, probably to rescue those people.
As for calling Su Jingxing “Guest Elder Lin”, they had clearly regarded Su Jingxing as a guest elder of Lin Tuotian’s Lin Family.
Little did they know that Su Jingxing and Lin Tuotian now had nothing to do with each other after the duel ended.
Of course, Su Jingxing didn’t clear up this misunderstanding.
As soon as he asked this question, Li Lilou and the two others no longer hid anything from one another.
Zhou Wencen’s expression turned serious. He answered first, “That’s right. According to the information we received, our men have been captured here, but we don’t know where they are being held.”
“They don’t know either?” Yan Yuanfeng looked at the two guards who were subdued by Su Jingxing.
“I just interrogated them. They only know that there is a secret place in this base, but they don’t know where it is located,” Su Jingxing said in a low voice.
“I also looked around and indeed, I didn’t find any holding cells.” Li Lilou agreed.
“Then what should we do?” Yan Yuanfeng frowned. “Is there an underground chamber here?”
“Definitely.” Zhou Wencen nodded and a.n.a.lyzed, “There must be one. The key is where is it?”
“Unfortunately, s.h.i.+ Zhirun and s.h.i.+ Zhiyun are already dead.” Li Lilou sighed.
“Yeah, those two would certainly know the location.” Yan Yuanfeng sighed as well. “I wonder who killed them.”
“If you’re talking about an old man and an old woman, then I’m sorry, I killed them,” Su Jingxing said calmly.
Uh…
The corners of Yan Yuanfeng’s eyes twitched. He stood awkwardly on the spot again. He did not know if he should cry or laugh.
Li Lilou and Zhou Wencen weren’t surprised.
Su Jingxing had even killed Helian Xuezhen and Ji Min. So what was s.h.i.+ Zhirun and s.h.i.+ Zhiyun to him?
If not for the fact that Su Jingxing was powerful, why would the two of them, both fourth-grades, keep him company and speak to him so politely?
It was because they knew how powerful Su Jingxing was, so they wanted to see if they could rope him into their family clan.
Li Lilou and Zhou Wencen each had their own plans.
Only, they did not share them out loud or show it on their faces.
“We don’t know the location, this is troublesome…”
Boom!
A deafening sound suddenly came from the corridor on the right side of the corner where they were.
Accompanying the sound was the shaking of the floor and ceiling.
A strong smell of blood soon followed.
Li Lilou and Zhou Wencen’s expressions changed drastically when they caught the scent.
“Not good!”
With that, the two of them pushed off their toes and flew towards the corridor that was the source of the commotion.
Their men quickly followed behind.
“What’s going on?”
Yan Yuanfeng was confused.
Su Jingxing ignored him and also joined them in a flash.
“Hey, wait for me!”
Yan Yuanfeng shouted and followed behind.
His men ran behind him.
The group had just rushed into the corridor——
Boom!
Another loud crash shook the ceiling and floor again.
This time, after the crash, an excited laughter came from the depths of the pa.s.sageway.
“Hahaha, it’s a success, it’s a success…”
Plkch!
There was a strange sound and the laughter was cut off abruptly.
Li Lilou, Zhou Wencen, and Su Jingxing were the fastest.
When they arrived at the source of the sound, they saw a large hole in the ground.
A tall figure covered in blood reached out and grabbed a unibrow man. A sharp claw pierced through his chest!
