574 Those Who Call Themselves Kid, Die! (2)
However, his justification was for the sake of the friendship between the two races. This forced the Quasi-Immortal Race to tacitly agree.
“You can’t just look at the surface of things.”
Xu Qing sighed with emotion. He had felt this when he was in the Seven Blood Eyes. The Eight Sects Alliance was slightly better, and in this county capital, this feeling was even more intense.
“From the looks of it, I should think of a way to leave something on the criminals of the Quasi-Immortal Race who are about to be sent back…”
Xu Qing pondered over the feasibility of this matter.
When the sky outside turned bright, a dark glint appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. He got up and went to the Prison Department. He didn’t go to D132, nor did he go to Area C. He first went to the ninth floor.
There, with his identity and authority as a Pawn in Area C, he checked the information of all the prisoners in Area D and finally found a clue.
Not all the Quasi-Immortal Race members were imprisoned in Area C.
There were close to 300 Quasi-Immortal prisoners in Area D.
Among them, 17 were about to reach the ten-year deadline. Not long later, they would be sent back to the Quasi-Immortal Race.
“There must be some among the 40-odd Quasi-Immortals in the first prison world too.”
“Although making an immortal puppet requires a Nascent Soul cultivation, the cultivation of these people imprisoned in Area D isn’t enough. It’s hard to say what the final outcome will be.”
After checking the prisoners’ information, Xu Qing fell into deep thought. He then turned and left. In Area D27, he found the Pawn there and greeted him before making arrangements.
Regardless of whether it was the authority of the Pawn in Area C or Xu Qing’s reputation in Area D, the arrangements progressed smoothly.
In a cage in D27, Xu Qing saw the Quasi-Immortal Race he wanted to see under the lead of this cell’s Pawn.
The middle-aged man’s entire body was white. Even though he was in prison, he still gave off a holy feeling. Now that he was sitting cross-legged and meditating, even though he sensed the Pawns’ arrival, his expression was calm. There was a sense of arrogance that seeped from his bones.
“Xu Qing, I’ll leave this Quasi-Immortal to you, but don’t kill him…” The Pawn from D27 had seen the blood pool in D1 before, so he reminded him.
Xu Qing nodded and cupped his fists in thanks.
“Play to your heart’s content.” The Pawn smiled and returned the greeting before turning to leave.
Xu Qing turned his head and opened the cage door. The moment he walked in, the Quasi-Immortal Race member lifted his head. His eyes contained a hint of disdain as he looked at Xu Qing.
“You…”
The instant the Quasi-Immortal Race member spoke, Xu Qing expressionlessly took a step forward. He raised his right hand and directly slapped the top of the Quasi-Immortal Race’s head. As his palm landed, his cultivation base spread out. The Quasi-Immortal Race member’s body trembled and he spat out a mouthful of blood, directly fainting.
Xu Qing didn’t like to waste his breath and wasn’t willing to speak too much. Hence, he knocked him out with a single palm strike.
While the other party was unconscious, Xu Qing squatted down and studied the body structure of the Quasi-Immortal Race.
After carefully investigating, a look of contemplation appeared in his eyes. As he pondered over how to attack, he continued to study the Quasi-Immortal Race. From time to time, he would slash a few times to check his flesh and bone structure.
Not long later, when Xu Qing was still analyzing, the Quasi-Immortal Race cultivator’s body trembled. The continuous pain woke him up. Just as he was about to open his eyes, Xu Qing calmly spoke.
“The person you killed is my close friend!” With that, he slapped again.
With a bang, the Quasi-Immortal Race member, who had yet to open his eyes, fainted again.
Just like that, time flowed by. When the Quasi-Immortal Race cultivator woke up 12 times from the intense pain, Xu Qing finally finished studying his body.
At that moment, this Quasi-Immortal Race member was already covered in injuries.
“The best way is to let my anomalous substances exist in his body. Only then will it be the most hidden and not be discovered. As for the little black bugs… forget it. I can’t underestimate the Quasi-Immortal Race.”
“However, the anomalous substances shouldn’t be discovered.”
When Xu Qing thought of this, he waved his right hand. After the fog in the surroundings enveloped him and blocked the surrounding perception, the third palace in his body trembled. This time, it wasn’t poison that spread but a trace of anomalous substances that belonged to him.
These anomalous substances could invade all things, and he would be the source of all existences that were invaded by it.
He carefully controlled this trace of anomalous substances, allowing it to enter the body of the Quasi-Immortal Race and lurk at the location of his kidney.
He didn’t choose the heart because in the Quasi-Immortal Race had five hearts and had powerful recovery ability. Even if he destroyed four of them, they wouldn’t die.
However, back then, during the secret training, Ghost Hand had said that the kidneys were their fatal point.
Hence, after slowly hiding his anomalous substances in the kidney of the Quasi-Immortal Race, Xu Qing dispersed the fog that covered his figure and turned to leave, heading to the cell where the second Quasi-Immortal Race member was imprisoned.
After he left, the Quasi-Immortal Race member who was covered in injuries and on the verge of death woke up. His expression revealed intense anger and he even checked his body carefully. After confirming that although his injuries were serious, his life was safe, he gritted his teeth fiercely and his eyes revealed ferocity.
He recalled what the other party had said before and knew that this person had specially come to take revenge.
“I’ve killed many people. Which one of them is his close friend?”
“However, this isn’t important. I’ll be sent back to the race soon. When I get out, I’ll definitely return this torture by several times!”
While the resentment in the heart of the Quasi-Immortal Race was intense, Xu Qing did the same thing to all the Quasi-Immortal Race members who were about to be sent away.
Every time, he would change his appearance. Every time, he would incriminate them with similar reasons.
All of this was to prevent these Quasi-Immortal Race members from sensing that he had tampered with their bodies.
They, who lacked information and communication, mistakenly thought that it was a personal grudge.
After doing this, Xu Qing left Area D and went to Area C.
There were two Quasi-Immortal Race members in Area C who would be released soon. However, although Xu Qing could withstand the descent of the small world’s rules, it was difficult for him to move freely. Moreover, his time was limited.
Hence, he could only put the two members of the Quasi-Immortal Race aside for now.
In the following time, he used all his energy to adapt to the descent of the rules of the small world in Area C. He stepped into the small world again and again and endured the intense pain of his body collapsing again and again.
However, he could only endure for at most 300 breaths of time. It was far from enough time for him to find the Quasi-Immortal Race members and implant his anomalous substances.
“I have to withstand at least 2,000 breaths of time.”
After Xu Qing made a judgment, he worked even harder.
Also, every time he came to work, he would bring a flask of wine for the old man. He knew that the other party liked to drink.
After giving wine several times, Xu Qing respectfully asked about the technique to carry the rules of the small world when the other party was drinking. He believed that there must be a similar technique.
At first, Ghost Hand didn’t say anything. Later on, after drinking Xu Qing’s wine several times, his admiration for Xu Qing grew, so he told him.
Xu Qing listened very seriously. After that, he tried it out in the small world, tempering himself many times.
His improvement was very fast and the time he could withstand the descent of the rules was getting longer and longer. A month later, the time he could last had increased from 300 breaths to 1,000 breaths.
During this process, something happened in Fenghai County.
There were cultivators from the Black Heaven Race who appeared in Fenghai County. They were secretly captured by experts from the Sword Holding Palace and tortured to extract a confession. In the end, they were sent to Area C to be suppressed.
This matter was a secret that outsiders didn’t know about. Xu Qing only knew about it due to his identity as a Pawn in Area C.
The day they were sent over was when he was on duty. Just as he entered the 90th floor, Xu Qing saw Ghost Hand and many Pawns from the first world prison taking over the prisoners.
This was the first time he had seen the Black Heaven Race.
If the turning point that led the human race to decline was the battle with the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race, then the Black Heaven Race was an assassin who waited for an opportunity to ruthlessly cut down half of the human race when the human race finally regained some vitality.
It was also at that time that the Holy Wave Race chose to become a subordinate race of the Black Heaven Race.
In fact, from a historical point of view, Grand Duke Holy Wave’s betrayal back then was more like a premeditated plan. However, times had changed and very few people knew the exact truth.
Xu Qing knew even less about this. All his history knowledge was given by the Deputy Governor during the Sword Holder’s secret training.
However, Xu Qing knew that the Black Heaven Race didn’t like sunlight. Hence, this race forcefully destroyed the sun that originally existed above them, causing it to fall.
From then on, there was only the moon in the entire Black Heaven Race’s territory.
