Chapter 290: Murong Qj’s Defeat! The Correct Usage of the Sun True Astral! (3)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
The sharp golden sword threads fell on the air wall like raindrops, but they could not break through its defense.
Instead, as the air wall pushed, the golden sword threads were repelled and finally returned to the huge sword.
Crack! Murong Qi slashed at the Astral Qi with his huge sword, and a crack more than a meter long appeared on the energy wall.
Murong Qi’s body was sent flying, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He felt a tearing pain in all the meridians in his body, and for a moment, he couldn’t even speak. The power of the White Tiger bloodline in his body quickly circulated, repairing his damaged body.
The Sword Slave blocked in front of Murong Qi and shouted, “Qin Qingxu! Have you forgotten the agreement?”
The person who came was the Academy Head of the Martial Academy, Qin Qingxu. He was a fourth-level Fiend Condensation Martial Saint and the strongest martial artist in Yuan Chang County.
Qin Qingxu waved his wide sleeves and placed his hands behind his back. “The disciple of the Martial Academy publicly challenged Yang Xie. Murong Qi launched a sneak attack from behind, so I had no choice but to attack.”
“But you can’t use a Lesser Divine Power to deal with Young Master!” The Sword Slave’s expression was gloomy.
“If I had used all my strength, he would have died,” Qin Qingxu said calmly. “You…” The Sword Slave was furious, but he did not dare to flare up directly.
“Thank you for your guidance, Senior. I will definitely repay you in the future!” Murong Qi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and cupped his fists at Qin Qingxu. Then, he threw the huge sword in his hand and staggered away.
Sword Slave put the huge sword back into the black sword case and followed closely behind.
Qin Qingxu did not stop him. At most, he would teach Murong Qi a lesson. If he bullied Murong Qi and killed him directly, the White Tiger Aristocratic Family would not let the matter rest.
The current Martial Academy no longer had the support of the Heavenly Saint Sect. They could not afford to provoke these top aristocratic families.
“The younger generation will surpass us in time.” Looking at Murong Qi’s back, Qin Qingxu sighed in his heart.
Although he did not use his full strength just now, Murong Qi’s full-strength strike almost broke through his Grand Pure Astral Qi’s defense.
Even if Murong Qi relied on the power of the divine weapon, he was still a genius with peerless talent.
His true strength was definitely not at the 19th place on the Qilin Ranking. “Thank you, Academy Head, for helping us out.” Han Zhao helped Lu Yingxuan to Qin Qingxu.
If Qin Qingyu made a move, he would be able to save his lifespan from using the Withering Style. He could also hide his strength and kill many birds with one stone.
Moreover, Murong Qi’s injuries were definitely much more serious than they looked.
This way, Han Zhao felt that the plan was almost certain to succeed.
“I’m just doing what I should do. You’ll have to rely on yourselves from now on,” Qin Qingxu said calmly.
He glanced at Lu Yingxuan and saw that her breathing was still stable, so he turned around and left.
Soon, Zhang Mudie and Lu Yi rushed over.
Han Zhao handed Lu Yingxuan to Zhang Mudie and caught up to Qi Xuanming, who had silently left the field.
“Brother Qi, wait.”
Qi Xuanming stopped in his tracks and turned around.
“Brother Han.”
“Thank you for your help, Brother Qi.” Han Zhao thanked him sincerely.
“It’s just a small effort. I’m afraid I won’t be able to attack anymore.” Qi Xuanming’s face was a little pale. “Brother Han, take care.”
With that, Qi Xuanming turned around and left.
“Goodbye, Brother Qi.” Han Zhao thanked him again.
Qi Xuanming was really a gentleman.
Then, Han Zhao boarded the pleasure boat and found Su Tianqi, who was asking for comfort in Su Ningqiu’ s arms.
Seeing that Su Tianqi was fine, Han Zhao headed to the prefecture capital after agreeing to meet again.
He went to the bank to exchange the last bit of banknotes for gold. Then, he caught up with Zhang Mudie and Lu Yi and sent Lu Yingxuan back to the residence to recuperate.
He stayed in the room next to Lu Yingxuan.
“I’ve already figured out Murong Qi’s trump card…” Han Zhao revealed a murderous expression.
As the saying went, take his life while he was sick.
He had to kill him as soon as possible!
“System.”
[Collected 300 Notification Fragments. Do you want to synthesize the Trait?]
[Each synthesis will consume 130 Notification Fragments and 3,000 taels of gold.]
“Synthesize. Beginning simulation.”
[24 years old. You saved Lu Yingxuan. The Academy Head of the martial arts academy, Qin Qingxu, repelled Murong Qi.]
[Ji Qingshuang went to look for Murong Qi to negotiate but was injured by him.]
[A month later, the Ji family sent Ji Zhuling to retrieve the Seven Evil Mask fragment. She colluded with the Longevity Sect behind the scenes.]
[The Sect Master of the Longevity Sect, Shi Xixing, took action and captured
Lu Yingxuan.]
[You went to save someone and were ambushed by Ji Zhuling and Shi Xixing.]
[Ji Zhuling wanted to capture you alive.]
[Facing two Snake-level experts, you tried your best to kill one of them. You’re dead.]
“The Longevity Sect has taken action. Looks like Senior Sister’s secret can’t be hidden anymore.”
Han Zhao’s expression darkened as trouble followed.
[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: 150 taels of gold]
“My wallet has been squeezed dry…” Han Zhao looked at the system balance and the muscles at the corner of his eyes twitched.
“I choose option two.”
[Attribute Points +130]
Blazing Sun Technique (Fourth Level Greater Mastery 89%, Upgradeable; Special Effect: Extreme Heat Level 21, Blazing Sun True Qi, Blazing Sun True Astral)
“System, increase the Blazing Sun Technique.”
[Attribute Points: 130 77]
Blazing Sun Technique (Fourth Level Perfection 100%. Unmet conditions for breakthrough: Five Qi Perfection, Fire Fiendish Qi; Cannot be Upgraded;
Special Effect: Extreme Heat Level 25, Fire Poison Level 3, Blazing Sun True Qi, Blazing Sun True Astral)
A powerful heat flowed through Han Zhao’s body, and white smoke emitted from his entire body.
“I can only use the Sun True Astral at the Fifth Level of the Blazing Sun Technique. If I forcefully use it now, it should be fine.” Thinking of this, Han Zhao muttered to himself.
“System, can I forcefully use the Sun True Astral now?
[This notification requires 120 taels of gold.]
“Pay.
Han Zhao chose to pay.
[Your Blazing Sun Technique has been cultivated to the perfected Fourth Level. You can forcefully use the Sun True Astral. However, your body lacks the protection of the Fire Fiendish Qi. After using the Sun True Astral, all the meridians in your body will melt and die in five seconds.]
“I see!”
Han Zhao’s eyes lit up.
In that case, the Sun True Astral and the Tribulation Substitution Doll were simply a perfect match.
“When the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. It’s time to reel in the net..”
