My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

234 Making a Move

Outside Huai Dan City.

A thin mist of blood spread across the barren mountains and plains.

Broken limbs piled up into small mountains, and thick blood gathered into streams, flowing toward the low-lying area. The blood-colored streams eventually ran side by side, turning into blood-colored ponds and low-lying areas.

A soldier with an indifferent expression carried a flag with the words ‘Peace Under the World’ written on it in black on a red background and headed for the mountain peak. They followed the blood-colored streams and went against the current.

!!

When he reached the top of the mountain, a hint of fear flashed across his indifferent expression, and he clenched the flag in his hand hesitantly.

“Sir, according to the rules, the flag should be set at the highest point…”

In his eyes, a young man with shoulder-length hair stood up at an inappropriate time. Like a lion’s thick hair, it swayed in the wind.

His entire body was covered in blood, and his strong muscles made him look even more burly. However, he looked more like a beast than a human. Beneath his feet were piles of corpses that looked like mountains.

“Ah, leave it to me.” The young man stood up and took the flag with the words ‘Peace Under the World’ and planted the flag into the ground.

The soldiers who were originally carrying the flag had already fled.

“I have never seen a genius like you…”

A man in a black robe walked over from behind and stood side by side with the young man.

The black-robed man continued, “There have been countless people who wore this armor, but most of them died in three days. The longest record before you was only half a month… yet you’ve been wearing this armor for half a year, and not only have you not shown any abnormalities, but even your bones seem to have changed.” The black-robed man clicked his tongue in wonder.

“Are they dead or have they turned into something else?” The youth opened his mouth and spat out a shocking heat wave in the air.

The next moment, the hair on his body actually shortened, and his ridiculously strong muscles turned into blood-red streams that returned to his chest and back.

Kakaka…

The bones in the young man’s body also began to crack. In just a few breaths of time, the youth had become much thinner. The armor on his body also revealed its original appearance, sticking to his body like a complete piece of rotten meat.

“Why do you care about this? I gave you the strength to complete your revenge. You let me see what I wanted to see… Isn’t it just nice?” The black-robed man smiled brightly. “In just half a year, you have killed a great blood refinement martial artist. Moreover, you have killed two of them at once…”

“That’s because my master taught me well,” the young man said in a slightly wooden tone.

He was able to kill two great blood refinement martial artists by himself. His exquisite poison technique played an important role.

When he thought of poison techniques, he couldn’t help but think of Qin Huai.

The young man was none other than Hu Jinghai, who had been taken in by the people of Baiqi Mountain like a stray dog. He seemed to have discovered his own unique talent.

“Master…”

A strange look flashed across the black-robed man’s eyes.

Qin Huai, who was far away in Lingjiang City, was not in a good situation even though he was talented.

“Brat, the order came from the sect. From today onwards, you are the third weapon of my Hundred Weapons Mountain.” The black-robed man patted Hu Jinghai’s shoulder.

“What’s the use of this third weapon title?” Hu Jinghai asked. “In terms of class, your status is higher than mine.”

“But this is Lingjiang county, I have the final say.” The black-robed man laughed.

“What if I want to kill Song Ya?” Hu Jinghai said.

“You only have one chance.” The black-robed man shrugged.

“Then… What’s the price?” Hu Jinghai looked up at the black-robed man.

“In a few days, you will have a new set of armor shipped over from the Hundred Weapons Mountain.”

“Understood.” Hu Jinghai did not hesitate. He had no right to refuse.

“If in the end, this armor is mine, or… I’m in armor?” he raised another question.

“I don’t know. No one knows.”

…

In the Zhang family’s courtyard.

Zhang Haoyue’s door was pushed open quietly.

“Young Master, we got the item.”

A shifty-looking middle-aged man walked up to Zhang Haoyue. He held a sack and slowly placed it on the ground, looking very anxious.

“Young Master, it’s really not easy to get something that can poison a ninth refinement martial artist to death. Moreover, you didn’t buy the finished product. You even asked me to buy the medicinal ingredients in batches and buy the formula to make it myself. What are you trying to do…” The middle-aged man complained as he untied the sack.

If Qin Huai was here, he would be able to recognize them at a glance. These medicinal herbs were very old poisons and priceless treasures.

“What do you know? Every bit of risk is worth it. These medicinal ingredients were all bought from the Fengxing Auction House?” Zhang Haoyue asked again.

“Of course, I’m just following your orders… Besides, they couldn’t be sold anywhere else. However, you don’t have to worry. The Fengxing Auction House is a big force and will definitely not sell the information of its customers, so it’s safest to buy it from them. No one will know.

“Besides, I’ve been friends with their manager for thirty years. Our relationship is very close!” The middle-aged man patted his chest.

“Thank you for your hard work. You must make this poison before tomorrow night.”

“Understood!”

…

The next day, night fell quietly.

Qin Huai sat in the courtyard, reading the letter Ge Youqian had sent him.

The letter said that someone from the Zhang family had suddenly bought a batch of extremely poisonous medicinal herbs through the Fengxing Auction House.

The manager had already been taken into custody by Ge Youqian’s men. Ge Youqian was asking Qin Huai if he had any news.
