On the ground.

Feng Tiejian’s eyes grew even wider and rounder

In the small forest.

Li Linzhou had just sat up. The corners of his eyes twitched as he revealed a shock gaze.

Spirit weapons…

Spirit weapons usually make rare appearances once every few years. Tonight, two had appeared!

One was a kitchen knife with transparent blade shadows. Its lethality was terrifying.

If it wasn’t because Li Linzhou’s physique had been tempered and the true energy he cultivated possessed defensive capabilities, that wave of blade shadows earlier would have taken his life.

In other words, this kitchen knife spirit weapon was enough to kill most fourth-grade martial artists.

Yet.

Against another small sword spirit weapon, the attacks of the kitchen knife spirit weapon could not withstand a single blow.

The blade shadows that filled the sky shattered into nothingness within a few seconds.

The lethality of the thick lightning bolts released by the sword spirit weapon…

No, to be precise, it’s destructive power was even greater!

Li Linzhou could sense that the destructive strength carried by glowing lightning snakes was like real heavenly lightning and thunder.

It was a terrifying spirit weapon with the power of lightning and thunder!

The abilities of the kitchen knife spirit weapon were completely suppressed in the first round.

In most cases, the power of heavenly lightning and thunder could indeed suppress most spirit weapons.

Li Linzhou had thought of this, as had the black shadows’ true body.

The latter immediately abandoned Feng Tiejian and moved swiftly. As he changed directions, he split into two, two into four, four into eight.

The eight figures first gathered together and weaved around. Then, they suddenly spread out and charged in all directions.

Su Jingxing saw this and did not stop by controlling Thunderbolt to attack again.

He simply watched as the eight figures disappeared into the darkness.

Firstly, Thunderbolt’s energy was limited, so he had to save where he could.

Secondly, even if Su Jingxing continued to use Thunderbolt, he could not guarantee that he could take down the other party.

After all, the other party also had a spirit weapon in his hands, even though its abilities were suppressed by Thunderbolt.

However, there was a limit to the number of times Thunderbolt could be used while Su Jingxing didn’t know how long his opponent’s kitchen knife spirit weapon could last.

What if the energy of the kitchen knife spirit weapon could erupt continuously?

In that, when the Thunderbolt ran out of electrical power, it would be Su Jingxing’s turn to face the overwhelming attack of blade shadows.

Thirdly, the other party was simply too fast. In just a few seconds, the eight figures had already dashed several hundred meters away.

If Su Jingxing wanted to catch up, he would have to use Thunderbolt’s ability.

Move at lightning speed!

Truly being as fast as lightning.

However, in this way, Thunderbolt’s electrical power would be depleted even faster.

With all these factors combined, Su Jingxing chose to let the other party leave.

In any case, Feng Tiejian was still around.

The fellow was lying on the ground with a dazed expression on his face.

Su Jingxing put away Thunderbolt and landed beside him, removing the restraints on him.

Throughout the entire process, Feng Tiejian wore a blank look. He was dumbfounded and had not returned to his senses.

Pa!

Su Jingxing patted him on the shoulder.

“Ah!”

Feng Tiejian cried out in alarm. He jumped up and sprawled on the ground. He was excited, nervous, and pleasantly surprised as he shouted, “Thank you senior! Thank you senior for saving my life! Thank you, thank you…”

“What have you done recently?” Su Jingxing asked in a low voice.

“I… I didn’t do anything.”

Feng Tiejian’s body stiffened. With a glum face, he said with grief and indignation, “I won’t hide it from Senior. I really don’t know what I’ve done to be targeted by these people. I’ve been eating, drinking, and having fun as usual, I’ve also been slacking off at work. I’ve never offended anyone, nor have I argued with anyone. Why was I targeted!?”

Feng Tiejian said with a sobbing tone, “I don’t have money, nor do I have any family heirlooms. I’m not handsome, nor do I have any talent in martial arts. What I like the most is eating. Is it wrong to like eating?”

“That’s right. I eat it every day, but I’m not fat. But I’m not the only one with such a physique. Why are those people targeting me?”

“Just tell me what they want and I’ll change!”

Su Jingxing said nothing.

His gaze that was fixed on Feng Tiejian flickered rapidly.

There was definitely something wrong with Feng Tiejian, but he couldn’t tell what was wrong.

If he had seen something he shouldn’t have, the mastermind could simply silence him.

There is no need to go through so much trouble to send out a fourth-grade expert to capture him.

The fact that he is wanted alive shows that something about Feng Tiejian himself——his body, blood, and even organs had caught someone’s eye?

Su Jingxing racked his brains and thought of various possibilities.

He released his true energy and turned it into a force that slashed Feng Tiejian’s face, causing blood to spurt out.

Controlling his true energy, he wrapped it around the blood droplet and brought it before him to examine it closely.

Indeed, he did sense something amiss.

There seemed to be a hidden energy in Feng Tiejian’s blood.

It was not the bloodline power of the Three Yin Candles Blood, but something like a rich medicinal power.

There is medicine in his blood?

What heavenly treasures did Feng Tiejian eat?

No!

There was something wrong with this medicinal power but Su Jingxing couldn’t put a finger on it.

“Have you eaten any rare treasures or spirit herbs?”

Su Jingxing studied his blood and asked in a low voice.

Startled, Feng Tiejian, who had shut his mouth, trembled. He shook his head and said with a trembling voice, “No… no.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’m sure. I’ve really never eaten those before!”

Feng Tiejian gritted his teeth and said, “I’m always either eating in the crematorium’s canteen or a restaurant. How can these two places have rare treasures and spirit herbs?”

That’s right. It was impossible for any heavenly treasures to appear in the canteen or restaurants.

Then what was with the medicinal power in Feng Tiejian’s blood?

“Guest Elder Lin.”

Li Linzhou’s voice sounded from behind him. “Is there a problem with this young man’s blood?”

Guest Elder Lin?

Hearing this, Feng Tiejian carefully raised his head to look at Su Jingxing who was wearing a cloak and a mask. He subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

He knew Li Linzhou.

The Commander of City Governance of the Martial Suppression Office, the number one expert in Qinghe City. Yet he was no match for the black shadow with the kitchen knife.

However, this “Guest Elder Lin” in front of me had managed to beat back the black shadow. His attacks were swift and fierce. For some unknown reason, he had cut his face and retrieved a drop of blood.

There also seems to be something wrong with this drop of blood?

Wait, there’s something wrong with my blood!?

At this thought, Feng Tiejian’s body trembled even more violently.

“Senior L…”

Hu~

Strong winds swept through the sky.

Su Jingxing released his true energy externally to envelop Feng Tiejian. Carrying him, he charged into the sky.

He executed the Eight Steps Rising Dragon and increased his speed to the fastest. Amidst the sound of air friction resembling a dragon’s cry, he disappeared into the horizon.

On the ground, Li Linzhou opened his mouth and looked at the night sky. After a while, he sighed.

If one’s strength was inferior to another, one could not blame others.

…

In the sky.

Su Jingxing knocked Feng Tiejian out immediately and headed straight to the Green Cloud Mountain Range with him.

As for ignoring Li Linzhou, there was nothing much to say.

He couldn’t possibly reveal that he knew Feng Tiejian, right?

He reminded Wu Shouhan to put Feng Tiejian in the Martial Suppression Office because he wanted to clean up his true identity!

For Feng Tiejian, Li Linzhou had already suffered an injury tonight. He would not trouble him anymore.

Him bringing Feng Tiejian away as Guest Elder Lin was a good thing to Li Linzhou.

The mastermind targeting Feng Tiejian was much stronger than Li Linzhou.

If Feng Tiejian was allowed to continue staying in Qinghe City and his location was learned by others, there would definitely be more people who would appear and forcibly capture him.

Therefore, Su Jingxing wanted to spare all future trouble and bring Feng Tiejian out of the Qinghe City.

Now that person is gone, I’ll see what the mastermind can do!

Su Jingxing had also chosen the location to settle him, Changyang Prefecture City.

However, before going to the prefecture city, he had to make a trip to the Green Cloud Mountain Range, to the valley where the big white goose was.

Perhaps Feng Tiejian’s situation was even more complicated than Su Jingxing had guessed.

However, Su Jingxing couldn’t tell his exact condition, so he thought of borrowing the big white goose’s ability.

The hidden contents on the last pages of the Eight Steps Rising Dragon and Nine Steps Trampling Heaven were revealed thanks to the big white goose.

Perhaps the big white goose could also make the abnormality on Feng Tiejian show up?

As he pondered, Su Jingxing sped up.

400 years of cultivation was enough for him to expend freely.

They raced to the valley.

Su Jingxing carried Feng Tiejian and landed beside the river where the big white goose was.

Then, he called out for the big white goose while peeling off Feng Tiejian’s clothes.

He stripped the fellow naked and placed him on the ground with his back facing the sky.

“Ga ga! Ga ga!”

Upon hearing his call, the big white goose ran over from a distance.

Seeing Su Jingxing who had removed his cloak and mask, it flapped its wings excitedly.

“I’m sorry, Brother Goose. I’ve been a little busy lately, so I didn’t come to see you.”

Su Jingxing apologized first. He took out a big bunch of Essence Energy Pills from his palm space and tossed them to the big white goose.

The big white goose flapped its wings and leaped into the air, swallowing all the pills.

After landing on the ground, it flapped its wings vigorously and raised its head to let out two cries.

“Ga ga!”

“Ha, don’t worry. There are plenty of pills.” Su Jingxing chuckled and took out another big handful of Essence Energy Pills and tossed them to the goose.

The big white goose opened its mouth and swallowed them all, flapping its wings excitedly.

Seeing this, Su Jingxing took out another handful and the big white goose swallowed everything.

After this time, the big white goose did not honk anymore. Instead, it wagged its butt, looked at Su Jingxing, and called out softly.

“Er, there’s indeed something I need to trouble you with.”

Su Jingxing blushed with shame

It seemed like each time he came here, it was to ask for help.

However, the big white goose seemed very happy, so he laughed dryly and did not let himself feel conflicted.

With a light cough, he pointed at the unconscious Feng Tiejian, getting the big white goose to move close and radiate its glow.

The big white goose agreed readily and emitted a silvery-white glow that enveloped Feng Tiejian.

A hazy layer of red and green light appeared on Feng Tiejian’s skin as expected.

Not one or two spots, but all over his body!

“What exactly is going on with this fellow?”

Su Jingxing narrowed his eyes at this sight.

Feng Tiejian has never eaten any heavenly treasures, but his body and blood were abnormal.

Could it be a mutation?

But a mutation occurring out of nowhere? Is it due to innate reasons, or caused by external factors?

If it was innate, it’s impossible for him to have no reaction all this time.

But if it is external factors, why didn’t Feng Tiejian sense anything himself?

Also, how did the mastermind know that changes had occurred to Feng Tiejian’s body?

Or could it be that the anomaly in Feng Tiejian was caused by the mastermind?!

Su Jingxing’s heart skipped a beat at this thought.

Rearing pigs!

A term suddenly popped into his mind.

Feng Tiejian had admitted that he loved to eat.

The mastermind targeted this trait of his and secretly carried out a different style of “rearing pigs” to change his body into what he desired.

Now that the “pig” was fat enough to be slaughtered, they came to capture him!

“Tss~”

After coming to this horrifying result, Su Jingxing’s eyelids twitched.

If Feng Tiejian has really been reared as a ‘pig’, then who is the one doing the rearing?

He has a spirit weapon and his true energy cultivation is even stronger than Li Linzhou’s.

Who exactly is the mastermind?

Su Jingxing’s eyes flickered.

After a while, he took a deep breath and suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind.

After putting Feng Tiejian’s clothes back on, he changed his facial features and hairstyle.

During the “plastic surgery”, he noticed that Feng Tiejian was showing signs of waking up and knocked him out again.

After everything was settled, Su Jingxing disguised himself as Yang Jian before bidding farewell to the astonished big white goose.

Carrying Feng Tiejian, he expended a lot of true energy, circulating the Eight Steps Rising Dragon to the maximum as he headed straight for the prefecture city.

The Green Cloud Mountain Range was less than 300 kilometers away from the prefecture city.

Su Jingxing was as fast as lightning and he arrived at a remote corner of the city before dawn.

Putting on his mask, he slapped Feng Tiejian awake.

When Feng Tiejian woke up, he was bewildered and touched his own body repeatedly.

The corners of Su Jingxing’s mouth twitched, but he didn’t say anything else. He only told Feng Tiejian that they had arrived at the prefecture city. Then, he led the shocked and dazed Feng Tiejian out of the alley and headed straight for a luxurious hotel not far away.

He asked for a luxury suite anonymously and paid for two months’ stay in one go, including meals.

Su Jingxing brought Feng Tiejian into the room and said bluntly, “If you don’t want to die, stay here for the next two months and don’t go anywhere.”

“Alright, alright. Senior, don’t worry. I promise that I won’t even take half a step out the door!”

Feng Tiejian raised his hand and swore. “But, Senior, why are you helping me like this?”

As he said this, Feng Tiejian carefully raised his head and sized up Su Jingxing whose face he couldn’t see.

“I’m happy to. Can’t I?”

Su Jingxing lowered his voice and snapped.

Feng Tiejian shut his mouth, not daring to make any more sounds.

“Cut the crap. Let me ask you. You said that you either eat at the canteen or restaurants. Which restaurant did you go to the most?” Su Jingxing asked.

“The one I go to most?”

When Feng Tiejian heard this, he scratched his head in thought. “I think it’s… Scholar Restaurant! Yes, it’s Scholar Restaurant! Senior, you don’t know. Although Scholar Restaurant isn’t a very famous restaurant, it’s still a century-old restaurant. There are many dishes there that are very delicious and not expensive. I eat there once a week. Now that I calculate, it’s been almost five years.”

“…You went there once a week for five years?”

Su Jingxing’s eyes sparkled.

“Yes, about five years.”

Feng Tiejian nodded and said, “Although there were a few times when I didn’t go, in general, I basically go every week.”

“What’s wrong, Senior?” Feng Tiejian asked confusedly.

“It’s fine,”

Su Jingxing controlled his breath and said calmly, “I’m leaving first. Remember this, don’t go out if you don’t want to die!”

With that, he opened the door and left quickly.

Behind him, Feng Tiejian didn’t dare to say anything and quickly closed the door.

…

Su Jingxing walked out of the hotel through the main entrance and returned to a remote corner. As he soared into the sky, he no longer tried to hide his disbelief.

Scholar Restaurant, the He Family!

The He Family that had kept a low profile for 400 years was actually “rearing” Feng Tiejian!

…
