The sky was not bright yet. Han Zhao came to the side of the Long Forest River and threw out a bamboo pole. He flew up and stood in the middle of the bamboo pole with his toes. He circulated his true qi and walked on the waves.
Soon, he caught up to the large ship driving in the fog. He quietly returned to the private room in the cabin.
“Synthesize. Beginning simulation.”
As soon as he returned to the private room, Han Zhao started the simulation.
[24 years old. You attacked the Longevity Sect’s stronghold and killed He Wuji and Gao Baijie. Then, you used the Sun Chasing Bow divine weapon fragment to make a deal with the three Lian sisters.]
[The attack on the Longevity Seces stronghold aroused Ji Qingshuangs
suspicion. She deliberately made things difficult for you. You pretended to agree to Ji Qingshuang’s unreasonable request in exchange for her protection.] [Murong Qi started challenging experts everywhere.]
[Ji Qingshuang went to look for Murong Qi to negotiate. Instead, an intense conflict erupted with Murong Qi and she was injured by him.]
[A month later, Murong Qi publicly announced that he wanted Lu Yingxuan to leave with him. Otherwise, you would have to accept his challenge and be forced to accept it.]
[During the battle, you discovered that Murong Qi was injured.]
[You suppressed him with the Flood Dragon Transformation and Withering
Style.]
[At the critical moment of life and death, Murong Qi broke through at the last minute and completed the third bloodline awakening. His strength soared, and the situation instantly reversed.]
[You used the Withering Style again, but it was blocked by Murong Qi’s awakened innate secret technique and family heirloom.]
[In the end, you consumed 90% of your lifespan and severely injured Murong Qi with a slash. Just as you were about to kill him, his Sword Slave appeared and blocked your fatal blow.]
[Ji Qingshuang appeared and captured the severely injured you. She used the divine weapon’s illusion to control you.]
[A year later, Ji Qingshuang broke through to the Snake-level.]
[She used you to threaten Ji Baiwei and successfully snatched the Seven Evil Mask divine weapon fragment in Ji Baiwei’s body.] [Ji Qingshuang was about to kill you when Yu Niang appeared and saved you.]
[The Ji family’s Weapon Master attacked. You’re dead.]
“None of these geniuses from the top wealthy families are simple!”
Han Zhao looked at the information in the simulation and couldn’t help but be speechless.
Why was his bloodline talent so abnormal at the critical moment of life and death?
However, he had never seen a descendant of a divine weapon family breakthrough at the last minute.
In the simulation, when he encountered Kong Yi from the Hundred Spirit Sect,
he suddenly exploded and activated the Five-Color Peacocks innate divine power, the Five-Colored Divine Light, to kill him. Now, there was Murong Qi, and he even had a secret treasure.
Han Zhao pondered.
“From the looks of it, the problem lies in Murong Qi challenging experts everywhere and his battle with Ji Qingshuang.”
It was probably because Murong Qi was about to break through that he took this opportunity to challenge the experts of Yuan Chang County. He wanted to use the excitement of the battle to attempt to break through the bottleneck.
It could only be said that he had a deep background to play like this. Even if the older generation could defeat Murong Qi or even kill him, they would hold back because they could not afford to offend the White Tiger Aristocratic Family and the Hundred Spirit Sect.
Of course, Han Zhao was not among them.
As long as he could kill Murong Qi and prove his greater value, the Qi family would protect him.
In any case, he had already provoked enough forces. So what if two more came?
“Murong Qi, since you’re such a genius, I can’t give you a chance to seek a breakthrough.”
Han Zhao’s eyes were cold.
“As for Ji Qingshuang, why do you have to provoke me?!”
Compared to Murong Qi, Han Zhao hated Ji Qingshuang more.
After all, he and Murong Qi stood on different sides and had no interaction or conflict with Ji Qingshuang.
“I have to kill both of them. I can’t let Ji Qingshuang die in my hands.” Han Zhao’s mind raced.
The Ji family was a local faction. If there was a conflict, it would be much more troublesome than the Hundred Spirit Sect and the White Tiger Aristocratic Family.
“I’ve got it!”
Since Ji Qingshuang wanted to use him, he would catch them all in one fell swoop.
[The simulation is over. You can choose one of the following.]
[1: Obtain Trait (Not Selectable)]
[2: Obtained attribute points]
[3: Obtain any part of the life experience.]
[Current Balance: 2,500 taels of gold]
“My funds can’t take it anymore if I simulate using 30,000 taels of silver each time.”
He didn’t lack Yin energy for the time being, but he didn’t have enough money.
When he first came to the prefecture capital, he had just broken through to the Force Tempering Realm.
Now, in less than three years, he had broken through five realms in a row and reached the realm of a Four Qi Grandmaster. His foundation was still incomparably deep. Without the support of the Furious Flood Dragon Gang’s deep financial and material resources, he would not have such speed at all.
The cost of simulating and refining pills was at least two to three million taels of silver.
This was also because he had an extremely high utilization rate of resources. “I have to think of a way to earn money as soon as possible!”
Now, there was not much silver left in the accounts of the Furious Flood Dragon Gang. If not for the fact that he could use the medicinal pills in his inventory to offset the debt, someone would probably be dissatisfied.
He had to think of a way to open up sources.
After pondering for a moment, Han Zhao still did not think of a good way to earn money. His attention returned to the system interface.
“I choose option two.”
