Stuck in a Chinese novel

Chapter 185: A tale

Sorry for the late update.

I was a bit too relaxed after being freed from the stress of exams.

****************

Wei Jun was slammed on the floor, pain rushing through his body even though his Qi was protecting him. But that did nothing to rattle the injuries he had already obtained.

Wei Jun still held the triangle lock around the bald man even though he was slammed once again.

"Ugh!!" Wei Jun spat blood from his mouth and nose but he kept a firm hold on the bald man. It was slow but he could feel the bald man slowly becoming sluggish as time went by.

It wasn't long before his efforts paid off.

The bald man finally lost consciousness and let go of Wei Jun. Wei Jun, however, wasn't so quick in letting go of the man. He still held the bald man to make sure he stayed in the realm of unconsciousness.

And finally, when there was no sign of the bald man coming back to the world of consciousness, Wei Jun let go of him and exhaled a loud breadth.

"Hah!"

"Haa… Haa… Haha… Hahahahahaha….. HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Wei Jun began to laugh and pant like a maniac or an animal could have been a correct description.

Wei Jun raised his head and looked at the guards surrounding the place. Mostly on the roof but there were some trying to make sure that the large commotion wasn't seen outside of the prison.

Seeing that there was nothing to worry about, Wei Jun remained in his spot, on the ground while he purchased a tranquilizing agent from the shop that worked on the cultivators.

But if it worked on the cultivators, Wei Jun hoped it would work on the bald aura master as well.

A single needle appeared in his hand which Wei Jun stabbed in the bald man's thigh and stood up.

[HP 17\\53]

Wei Jun checked the time for the pill cooldown and it was almost there. Just as it was finished, Wei Jun consumed a health pill and the pain in his body went away almost instantly.

Once he was back in his top shape, he searched the bald man and found another piece of paper like before in his pocket.

It was intricately drawn, just like the one from before. Wei Jun had no idea what all this signified but he was sure his buddy who was very helpful in his recent fight would know very much about it.

[It's a mana spell talisman]

[Just like there are talismans for Qi users]

[Mana spell talismans are also somewhat the same]

[If one possessed that, even if they didn't have any mana, they could still use a spell because of the arrays cast in it and the mana stored in it]

[This one teleports its holder to a hundred-meter distance]

'So that was how he was going to get out of here, huh?' Wei Jun said inwardly and stood up.

He turned to the guards and said, "Take him to an empty room and bind him. He might wake up and kill you all so make sure you have someone stronger with you."

[That's not necessary]

Just as Wei Jun finished, the system said.

'What isn't?' Wei Jun asked.

[You can just block his aura pathways]

[Aura is very similar to Qi]

[Only it isn't stored in the abdomen but in the body but the circulation still happens]

[You can halt that circulation with your Qi]

[Since Qi is superior to aura, his aura wouldn't be able to get free so soon]

[But it will because his aura is still stronger]

[But it will also buy you some time]

Wei Jun nodded and placed his hand on the bald man's abdomen. Once he was in, he used the skill [Qi discharge] repeatedly and blocked the acupoints he used during his circulation.

Since the bald man wasn't conscious, his aura also wasn't moving so Wei Jun couldn't tell if it worked or not.

All he could do was wait and find out.

No matter how strong Wei Jun pressed the blood vessels of the bald man and cut off the brain from the blood supply, his mind would soon reboot and he would soon wake up.

Tricky thing, a mind was. When it saw it couldn't get enough blood supply, it shut down all the systems before going to sleep itself to prevent necrosis.

Wei Jun sighed and turned to look at the scale of destruction their fight had caused. Wei Jun could safely say that this fight was very quick and clean, and he had made sure not to use any moves that were flashy.

Still, the scale of destruction was way beyond his fights before. The entire wing was destroyed and there were three deep craters in the ground as well.

Fixing all of that was going to take a fortune. Luckily, Wei Jun wasn't the one who was going to pay for it.

************

The bald man slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he noticed was the disorientation of everything. He felt as if he was on an amusement park ride but the ride itself wasn't so amusing and his stomach was going to give in at any moment.

As the surroundings got clearer, he noticed that he couldn't move, He tried to lift his head but he couldn't move that as well.

He felt as if he was bound to the table and after a few more minutes, he realized that he really was bound to the table.

He noticed the lack of clothes on his body and his body was fully tied to a table.

"I just wanted to peacefully live, you know." He heard a voice, a voice he recognized but he couldn't be sure where it was coming from since he couldn't move his head to check out.

"When my father appointed me as the chairman of a small-scale toy-making company with a worth of just 11 million dollars, I was ecstatic to make him proud and work on it still. Make it flourish." Wei Jun said once again but the bald man couldn't see where the voice was coming from.

"I was happy. My dad put a lot of faith in me and gave me such a responsibility. It wasn't even a drop of water, that company, in the big conglomerate of my family's empire, but it was a responsibility and it didn't matter how small it was, it was still my father's and I was never going to let it fail." Wei Jun kept talking, without caring whether the bald man was listening or not.

"But some people wouldn't just let me do it. No matter how hard I tried, no matter what I did, they wouldn't just let me progress." Wei Jun continued, "But I held back. It wasn't like I could do anything to them. I was raised by my brother as well, not just my father, so I had a kind heart."

Step.

Wei Jun slowly stepped on the floor which made the bald man nervous. Nervous because he couldn't feel the power that he had worked so hard to obtain. And not just that, the fact that he was in no control made him all the more nervous.

That was why that senseless talk that Wei Jun kept saying and the small steps Wei Jun was repeatedly taking were striking his nerves.

"I tried to reason with, I tried so, so hard. But I just couldn't do it. They wouldn't listen. All they saw was a child whom they could exploit and make some retirement fund for the end of their lives." Wei Jun continued while he continued to take small steps.

Everything little thing was invoking fear in the bald man and he desperately tried to use the power in his body but no matter how hard he tried he just couldn't do so.

And as for his body, it was numb. He couldn't even move it properly.

Wei Jun, on the other hand, continued his tale, "One day, I found out that the oldest one of them, the board of members, he was using the fund that was supposed to make the company go to the next level on hookers. I just lost it. I mean, he was seventy-three years old. I doubted his nilly would be capable of willying anymore.

One foot in the grave and the other in between a bunch of hookers, it wasn't as funny as it sounds right now."

Wei Jun finally appeared in the view of the bald man, his head upside down, "So I hit him on his head. But I wasn't going to do it without pain, so easily."

"So I tied him to a table, just like this. Used a chainsaw and cut through his limbs as he shrieked in pain and begged for mercy, or maybe he was begging for mercy or he was just screaming, I could never tell." Wei Jun said nonchalantly.

"Inevitably, my brother found out. He was mad. So mad at me. He thought I was the sensible one yet I did something like that. So he taught me how to dismember a body properly and clean the mess afterward. His techniques were amazing, by the way." Wei Jun said to the bald man like he was telling him of an artwork and added, "Now I'm going to apply those same techniques to you."

Wei Jun disappeared from the bald man's view once more but the bald man soon heard the voice of something electric going on. The sound of it was loud and obnoxious but soon enough, that loud noise was nothing compared to the screams of a man who was being cut into pieces while he was still alive and breathing.
