Chapter 23 The Qin Family as an Example
This person was dressed in the uniform of a guard.
His steps were steady, clearly indicating that he was also an advanced martial artist.
He was carrying something wrapped in black cloth.
Qin Jiu's gaze fell on it.
His expression shifted involuntarily.
"Let's put the things in the gazebo first."
"Huang Jing, it's your turn to go on stage."
He didn't rush to take the Yinming Soil back, but instead turned to look at Huang Jing beside him.
Upon hearing this, the latter glanced at Qin Xudong.
"Just give it your all."
Qin Xudong seemed to know what he wanted to ask, and said in a deep voice, "The patriarch is born with superhuman strength. If it weren't for my profound internal energy, I would have been defeated when we first started fighting."
He didn't mince words.
If Qin Jiu's strength wasn't up to par, then so be it.
But to still look down on him at this point would be a real disrespect to Qin Jiu.
Upon hearing this, Huang Jing's expression immediately turned serious.
"Master, please forgive me."
He approached Qin Jiu with his sword, bowed, and then took a deep breath. His powerful qi and blood surged, and a strange force was transmitted to the long sword, causing it to emit a clear, resonant sound.
Seeing this, Qin Jiu let out a slight sigh of relief.
We dare not underestimate it in the slightest.
Both of them were martial artists who had nearly reached the second level of mastery, and their internal energy was extremely profound. Although Qin Xudong seemed to be suppressed by them earlier, it was only because the other party did not take it seriously at the beginning, thus losing the initiative in the fight.
And Huang Jing right now.
Like a hungry tiger descending from the mountain, its aura became extremely fierce.
'Buzz'
Without the slightest warning.
Huang Jing suddenly unleashed a torrent of sword energy.
The glint of the blade was chilling and awe-inspiring.
Qin Jiu circulated his qi and blood, his bulging muscles instantly stretching his clothes open, and he charged forward without any intention of dodging.
"Clang, clang!"
The two exchanged more than ten blows in an instant.
Huang Jing's expression changed drastically.
Even though he was mentally prepared, his hand holding the knife still trembled slightly when they clashed head-on.
That was not caused by internal force.
Rather, it was an overwhelming and unstoppable force.
As Qin Xudong said, if he hadn't possessed profound internal strength, his weapon would probably have been knocked out of his hand during their first encounter.
"etc......"
Huang Jing's eyelids suddenly twitched.
He discovered that at that moment, a faint force was flowing along the blade of the longsword opposite him and suddenly seeping into his wrist.
"This is... internal energy?!"
Huang Jing's pupils contracted violently.
He quickly activated his internal energy to dispel the attack.
However, in a moment of distraction.
Qin Jiu suddenly closed the distance to within three feet, his long sword swirling around as he struck Huang Jing's wrist with the hilt. At the same time, he delivered a powerful shoulder strike to Huang Jing's shoulder, sending him flying backward, his long sword also being knocked away.
"It seems I'm not worth Master Huang's serious attention."
Looking at Huang Jing, who had fallen to the ground, Qin Jiu spoke calmly, his words carrying a hint of sarcasm.
Huang Jing heard this.
He was immediately so embarrassed that his face turned bright red.
He didn't expect that a tiny flaw would be seized upon by Qin Jiu, and he was defeated in less than a quarter of an hour.
"alright."
"You two should come again tomorrow."
"But I don't want to see this happen again."
Qin Jiu said calmly, then turned to Wang Yue: "Uncle Wang, give each of them a bottle of Bone Forging Pills."
"Yes."
Wang Yue took out two bottles of pills.
He gave each of them a bottle, and then asked them to leave.
Then she looked at Qin Jiu.
"How are you feeling, young master?"
"I can't explain it."
Qin Jiu shook his head slightly.
To be honest, he didn't feel much from his recent clash with the two second-level martial artists. Firstly, the two were not in good condition and had been fighting hastily, so it was hard to say how much of their skill they had used. Secondly, with the power brought by the snake demon's tendons, the moves seemed to become less important.
He frowned slightly.
Seeing this, Wang Yue smiled and said, "Actually, most of the situations you faced when fighting others are the same as what you faced before."
"No one can figure out anyone else's strength."
"The only goal I aim to achieve is to kill the enemy."
"Therefore, people in the martial arts world don't care about rules. As long as they can kill, they will not reject any underhanded methods, whether it's a group attack, poisoning, or shooting arrows. As for techniques, the biggest factor in determining the outcome is only when martial artists of the same level meet. Just like this old servant, whether it's Huang Jing and his companion or a three-level martial artist, I can kill them with a single punch."
"No special moves are needed."
"In fact, practicing martial arts and killing are two different things."
"Martial arts techniques are merely methods of killing, developed by our predecessors. Young Master still needs to hone these skills diligently. Those two are excellent whetstones. As for actual combat, a thousand words are not as effective as seeing blood in person."
Listening to these words.
Qin Jiu nodded thoughtfully.
He could understand Wang Yue's meaning: he was simply telling him not to be bound by techniques, whether it was overwhelming force or stabbing someone in the back, the ultimate goal was to kill.
After all, in a one-on-one battle, anything can happen.
Like Huang Jing's moment of distraction just now.
There's a much easier way to solve this...
His eyes gradually brightened.
......
Qin Mansion Martial Arts Training Ground.
Qin Xudong returned with a dark expression the entire time.
Huang Jing grinned and said, "Brother, what's wrong with you? You've been wearing that sour face the whole time."
What do you think?
Qin Xudong gritted his teeth and said, "I've made myself perfectly clear to you."
Why do you continue to underestimate your opponent?
"Hey bro."
Huang Jing said speechlessly, "You really think it's because I didn't take it seriously? Do you know..."
As he spoke, he first looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "Do you know that the patriarch has already developed internal energy and entered the second stage of cultivation? You didn't explain this clearly beforehand, which led to me being accidentally attacked by the patriarch's internal energy when I went on stage. I had no choice but to divert my internal energy to try to resolve it, which gave the patriarch an opportunity to seize the opportunity."
"What?!"
Qin Xudong looked up in astonishment.
Then came a chill down my spine.
He opened his mouth, unsure of what to say.
"Think about it yourself."
Huang Jing patted him on the shoulder and said, "I still have to take care of the things the patriarch instructed me to do a few days ago, so I won't chat with you here any longer."
After he finished speaking, he shook his head, hummed a little tune, and walked out of the Qin Mansion.
Then he strolled leisurely toward the patrol and inspection office.
The former patrol and inspection office.
The plaque had already been changed by then.
Huang Jing walked through the door and easily found his way to a cell, where a figure was bent over a desk, writing something down.
"Brother Feng Yuan..."
"You've arrived?"
The man looked up, a warm smile appearing on his face.
It was none other than Feng Yuan, the clerk of the Demon Suppression Division.
"Brother Huang, please wait a moment. I'll have someone brew a pot of hot tea so we can have a good chat."
"Goodbye, things have to get urgent."
Huang Jing raised his hand to stop him, saying, "The patriarch is still waiting for a reply."
"Alright."
Feng Yuan gestured for him to sit down.
Then he took out the document, his expression becoming serious.
"After review by the County Magistrate and Commander Fu yesterday, Qin Jingming and the other two Qin family warriors have all joined the Demon Suppression Division. Considering that the Qin family has set an example in the matter of demon suppression, the county government will no longer require the Qin family to transfer personnel to our division."
