"Master!"

Just at this moment, Uncle Qin, who had crashed into the wall, emerged with a long sword in his hand, only to witness Zhao Jing’s body being pierced through. He cried out in shock.

"Hmph!"

Zhao Jing grunted, saying, "Wutong, do you really think I pose no threat to you at all?"

After speaking, Zhao Jing flipped his hand. Somehow, little knives appeared in his grasp.

He endured the intense pain in his chest, channeling Inner Strength as powerful power surged forth.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

No fewer than five knives shot out, swift as a meteor, cutting through the air.

"As expected,"

Bai Ziyue mused inwardly. However, there was no trace of panic on his face. As spiritual power surged, a light flickered across the black little shield.

Because the attack was blind, Zhao Jing couldn’t detect Bai Ziyue’s combat position at all. Thus, only one of the five knives actually shot close to Bai Ziyue.

Bang!

An impact resounded as the flying knife struck the spirit light shield like a heavy hammer, shattering it instantly. However, when the flying knife reached the second layer of the Defensive Dharma Artifact, it merely quivered slightly before falling from the shield’s light, losing momentum.

"Over there..."

Zhao Jing’s face changed, a brilliance flashing in his eyes. Somehow, another knife appeared in his hand.

"Watch out!"

Just as Zhao Jing was about to strike again, Uncle Qin’s sharp shout reached his ears. Suddenly, he felt a chill behind his head, and before he could react, it was too late.

Thud!

A small sword pierced straight through the back of his head.

Zhao Jing died almost instantly.

"Master..."

Steward Qin glared with rage, but before the rapidly moving Cyan Light Sword, he could not resist and quickly met the same fate.

With a slight hand gesture, the Cyan Light Sword flew back.

He felt satisfied with his ability to easily kill Zhao Jing.

At least it proved that his combat power was no weaker than that of an Inner Power Realm Martial Artist, proving that he now had a preliminary means of self-preservation in this world.

Of course, he did not become overly arrogant because of this.

Qinghe Town was, after all, a small place, with the strongest only being a Third-class expert. Now there weren’t even any Third-class experts, which paled in comparison to Wujiang County, let alone the more prosperous County City.

"This Steward Qin, though his Qi and Blood had declined, was not weak. At his peak, he should have reached the Peak of Inner Cultivation, so the Soul Energy Points he could add after his death should be between one thousand seven hundred and one thousand nine hundred.

As for Left Guardian Zhao Jing, his strength within the Inner Power Realm could be considered strong, so he should be able to add around three thousand Soul Energy Points. Adding that to the more than ninety-five thousand I had left before..."

Earlier, Bai Ziyue had been able to determine the opponent’s strength through the amount of Soul Energy gained, or judge the opponent’s power, calculating the Soul Energy Points he could acquire by killing them.

Upon estimating the result, he became excited.

"It’s over a hundred thousand now!"

His Soul Energy Points had definitely surpassed a hundred thousand.

He eagerly opened the Attribute Panel.

"Data optimization in progress... Please wait..."

Bai Ziyue blinked, a little bewildered.

Optimized?

Upgraded?

Was it because the Soul Energy surpassed a hundred thousand?

*He was filled with doubt but ultimately couldn’t find the answer.*

However, as he understood it, this should be a good thing.

He believed that after the upgrade, this Attribute Panel would certainly be able to better assist him.

Then, Bai Ziyue turned his attention back to the battlefield, beginning to search for spoils of war.

The valuables on the two were few, aside from defensive weapons, just some miscellaneous items like jade pendants.

These things, although good, were distinctive and could easily lead others to investigate, uncovering traces, which would be troublesome, so Bai Ziyue had to abandon them.

Afterward, he quickly slipped into the backyard.

Under the Soul-Gathering Banner, the entire Zhao Mansion was pitch black. Even if some maids and attendants in the courtyard noticed something, they couldn’t get out. Thus, he felt quite reassured.

However, he dared not linger long, for Zhao Jing’s earlier shout must have echoed, surely alerting nearby people. So the time available to him was short.

With the help of the Yin Soul, passing through walls and entering the cave was easy and natural. Thus, Bai Ziyue quickly found Zhao Jing’s private vault.

Of course, while the Yin Soul could pass through walls and enter the cave, it couldn’t capture physical objects in a closed space.

They could switch between reality and illusion, but their Soul Body transformations could not include gold and silver, that was beyond their capability.

Only by mastering some techniques like the Five Ghost Transport Skill, which allows you to retrieve objects through walls, can you use magical power to move belongings out of the space.

However, even if Bai Ziyue had such a skill, he would hesitate to do something like that.

Unless absolutely necessary, he would not commit theft.

*This has nothing to do with right or wrong, it is simply his nature.*

Compared to Liu Dong’s private treasury, Zhao Jing’s was much smaller, and there weren’t many items, but there were still quite a few valuable things.

Bai Ziyue didn’t take a close look, filled the beast hide bag he acquired from Daoist Wutong, and used a piece of brocade cloth as a backpack, gathering a large amount of items, and only when he couldn’t fit anymore did he take out the Eagle Swordsmen Painting and lightly tapped it.

In an instant, an eagle condensed into form beside him.

He easily jumped onto the eagle’s back, and Bai Ziyue shook the Soul-Gathering Banner, gathering all the Yin Souls and Yin Qi.

The eagle spread its wings, soared into the air at once, and like an arrow, shot directly outside the city.

...

"It’s been half an hour, that Daoist Wutong should have already left."

In a room, a somewhat plump figure paced around, full of uncertainty.

"Master, why not go take a look yourself? You’re the Chief Constable of Qinghe Town, are you really afraid of that person?"

On the bed, a young, charming woman said with a look of puzzlement.

"What do women know?"

The Chief Constable Hong scolded, then spoke, "Didn’t you hear Zhao Jing’s call? Don’t be fooled by his tough talk; he was actually calling for help from us.

But he failed to realize that I, Old Hong, am only at the Peak of Inner Cultivation, while he, Zhao Jing, is the Left Guardian of the Sunburst Gang and a real Inner Power Realm Martial Artist.

If even he is not an opponent, what could we possibly do?

Going there would be suicide.

That Daoist Wutong is the Great Village Chief of the Ghost Head Stronghold and an Immortal Cultivator of immeasurable strength, even their Sect Leader was defeated and killed on the spot..."

Saying so, Chief Constable Hong became even more diffident, then solemnly remarked, "No, it’s better to ignore it, sleep, and pretend nothing happened."

Saying this, Hong Gang removed his robes again and lay back on the bed.

Seeing this, the woman naturally dared not say more.

Though she had stayed at home for years, she had heard some gossip from the maids and neighbors.

Knowing the prestige of that Daoist Wutong, not to mention her husband who was merely the Chief Constable of the Guardian Mansion, even the Lord Guardian would likely tremble meeting him face-to-face.

In Qinghe Town, there were many ’wise’ people like this Chief Constable Hong, and even if someone heard Zhao Jing’s calls, as soon as they heard Daoist Wutong’s name, almost none dared to approach.

Thus, only after Bai Ziyue had left for more than an hour did some dare to boldly approach...

...

Successfully returning to the rundown temple outside Qinghe Town, Bai Ziyue easily leaned against a statue and couldn’t help but show a smile on his face.

The smile grew larger.

*Only now did he truly have the feeling of walking the Jianghu.*

*Deadly strike, rid of troubles, no lingering for a thousand miles...*

"The Attribute Panel is upgrading, I wonder when it will be restored.

Fortunately, Zhao Jing is dead, and Qinghe Town, the Sunburst Gang should be in chaos for a while, so no one should notice me. I can have some peaceful days.

As for Hall Master Li Zhao... it will be a farewell for now."

*With a clear heart, Bai Ziyue temporarily noted these down and then turned his attention to the spoils.*

*Because it was gathered hastily, he hadn’t had time to look closely at what they contained.*

But one thing he was very sure of was that there seemed to be quite a lot of silver taels.

Bai Ziyue carefully counted the silver taels, gold, and various valuable items like agate and jade stones from the brocade cloth and his beast hide bag.

"Silver, gold, and some valuable items like agate and jade stones together should amount to around three thousand taels.

Besides that, there are twenty-some books. Among them were cultivation technique secret manuals, as well as some travelogues or cultivation insights on certain martial arts from various scholars or strong individuals."

Bai Ziyue mainly focused on these books.

As for weapons... naturally, Zhao Jing’s private treasury wasn’t lacking in weapons, some of which were made from excellent materials, definitely considered good items.

But the features of these weapons were too distinct, making it very likely that they could be traced back to their origin, which could easily bring trouble upon him, thus he discarded almost all items that could prove identity.

Even if he brought some over, he casually dug a pit and buried them in this rundown temple.

*Perhaps in the future, someone lucky enough might find them and gain a small fortune?*

"’Eagle Strike Ten Techniques,’ ’Golden Cicada Technique,’ ’Thunderbolt Saber Technique,’ ’Breath Concealing Technique’..."

At first glance, Bai Ziyue saw quite a few martial arts secret manuals, totaling seven or eight books, among which were Zhao Jing’s famous skill the ’Eagle Strike Ten Techniques,’ the Sunburst Gang’s Inner Cultivation Technique ’Golden Cicada Technique,’ and some martial arts techniques.

Some were quite common, while some were considered decent, such as ’Breath Concealing Technique’ and ’Thunderbolt Saber Technique.’

The only thing that disappointed him was that there was no Inner Power Heart Method for cultivating Inner Strength beyond Inner Cultivation.

Additionally, Zhao Jing’s Flying Knife Skill was quite tempting, but unfortunately, he couldn’t find the cultivation method for it in these books.
