Master, your name is Huang Silang?

The morning sun was bright, showering the earth with light. Good weather was a rare sight in Bangkok.

Ji Qinglin saw off a few more customers who had come to buy relics from the old era. Ever since Yu Ye started practicing her skills downstairs, the business at the general store had improved quite a bit. In most cases, people spent more time glancing at Yu Ye than looking at the merchandise.

Wearing a midriff-baring workout outfit, Yu Ye cleanly and crisply kicked out in the air, her movements dashing and full of heroic spirit. The force of just this one kick shattered the poster on the wall. Customers who had already left the general store saw this and retreated back to take a few more glances.

"Master, isn't this move 'Treading Snow to Seek Plum Blossoms' pretty good? Why do you want me to retract my power on the last kick?"

The master and disciple had been practicing at the general store for a few days, and they had basically learned all the high-level techniques they had purchased from Zhang HuaiMin. Although Yu Ye had suffered from injecting all the techniques into her body, it had also promoted the advancement of her meridians, accelerating her mastery. However, the degree of mastery between the two was naturally different.

Yu Ye had only learned the moves of these techniques and was exploring how to use them flexibly, while Ji Qinglin, with the added benefit of Divine Sense Observation, could see the operation of the techniques more thoroughly.

So, over the past few days, the more Yu Ye practiced, the more she felt her Master was unfathomable.

Because her Master actually knew all the techniques she had mastered, and used them with even greater power, he could even break down and explain the operational patterns and techniques of the moves.

Ji Qinglin, holding a teacup, came to Yu Ye's side, reached out and grabbed her smooth, fair calf, and explained, "Everyone knows that the killing move is at the end, which is like showing your cards. If the opponent catches it, the situation becomes very passive. You excel in agility, so the operational pattern of your leg in the last kick is best modified slightly, so you can advance or retreat, leaving room for maneuver."

The techniques on the technique storage device could be modified, but because not many people understood the operational patterns of the meridians, most people didn't dare to modify them easily. But the current Ji Qinglin naturally had this ability.

Hearing this, Yu Ye remembered how her kick had been easily caught by her Master a few days ago, and then he had pinned her on the sofa and stripped her naked. She shook her head and asked, "If you modify these techniques like this, it should be no problem to catch anyone off guard. What's next? Are we going to buy new techniques?"

"There's no need. Being too complex is just a burden. What's more important is actual combat."

Yu Ye heard this and said excitedly, "Oh? Are you going to arrange an opponent? Your disciple also thinks it's time for those Elders who don't know the immensity of heaven and earth to see the strength of our master and disciple!"

"Your Master doesn't want to find Qi Practitioners from the Chamber of Commerce as opponents for you. Exposing your strength too early is not conducive to your participation in the Cultivation Grand Competition. Besides, they can't let you quickly accumulate real combat experience."

Yu Ye frowned slightly, "You're not going to do it yourself, are you? Your disciple has already lost her mind twice."

Crazy Night: Pfft, you better be talking about practicing.

Ji Qinglin pulled out the computer under the operating table and said, "Haven't you always wanted to know about your Master's other sources of income for the general store? Besides the income your Master gets as an intermediary, the other item is here."

Yu Ye leaned over, holding her Master's shoulder, and a faint fragrance wafted over, clinging to him. She found that the computer screen was full of rotating portrait files, divided into two rows, with some portraits already marked with red crosses.

"This is... a wanted list."

"You can kill people without breaking the law, and you can get a reward if you change your mind. If you're lucky, the bandits might even have a small treasury."

"No wonder Master, you're so powerful. It turns out you've been licking blood from the knife's edge."

"No, in the past, your Master only planned, not acted himself. Now, I've changed my habits to give you some actual combat experience."

Ji Qinglin naturally didn't reveal that it was also to increase his own combat experience. "Can you do it just by planning?"

"Yes, choose a target, hire Qi Practitioners, provide action plans and intelligence, and then wait for the results and money. It's low risk and can improve the success rate of the mission."

Yu Ye remembered Sang Feng from before. It seemed that this was indeed the case.

"Master, are all the wanted lists here issued by the police?"

"The white wanted lists above are issued by the police, and the black ones below are issued by private individuals or companies on the black market."

"The police's prices aren't high, but the ones on the black market are ridiculously high."

"If the price is so high, either you can't complete it at all, or you won't get the money even if you do. In comparison, the police's wanted lists are more reliable. Moreover, in your Master's experience, the wealth in the hands of wanted criminals is far higher than their bounty."

Yu Ye noticed that in addition to the wanted criminal's personal information, there was actually a "group order in progress" below the wanted list.

"This... this can be a group order?"

"If you feel like you can't do it alone, but you really want to take it, you can do a group order with others. However, these invitations are usually private. Doing a group order on the list will let the wanted criminal know."

Yu Ye noticed that the account logged in on the upper left corner of the screen was named: Huang Silang.

Below it was written: Number of wanted list orders received: 24 Wanted list mission success rate: 100% "100% success rate! Master, are you not using your real name because you're afraid of being retaliated against?"

"It's just that your Master doesn't do things he's not sure of. As for retaliation, no, the dark web is full of virtual identities. Besides, your Master always eradicates the root. The name 'Huang Silang' is also quite famous in it. The mission cooperation applications I post have never been rejected."

Yu Ye's big almond eyes showed a bit more admiration and anticipation: "Master, what kind of target should we choose?"

Ji Qinglin patiently analyzed, "Looking at the personal behavior of these wanted criminals, we shouldn't choose those who have killed a large number of police officers or Qi Practitioners, as they are too dangerous; we shouldn't choose those with too low a crime amount, as they have no practical significance.

It's best to choose those who have recently committed crimes released by the police, who have lives in their hands but not many, and whose criminal behavior is best as habitual thieves, because they all have small treasuries, and most of them are Qi Practitioners with agile movements, suitable for you to practice with."

According to the conditions he had just said, a wanted list that met the requirements popped up: Name: Duan Tianpeng Nickname: Flying Mantis

Common techniques: Intercept Cloud Step (modified), Flying Curtain Kick, Heart-Urging Seal.

Unlawful Summary: Repeatedly trespassed to steal underwear and valuables from noble women's residences, killing guards and cleaning staff in two instances when caught in the act. A week ago, he struck again in Xin Dong Street, stealing underwear and a large amount of jewelry from a wealthy family's female relatives.

Yu Ye frowned and said, "An underwear thief? Master, can't we find someone more respectable?"

"Are there any respectable people among wanted criminals? Don't aim too high. The fact that this guy can enter so many heavily guarded places means his skills are definitely not bad."

"That's true, but with information only from a week ago, how are we supposed to catch this thief?"

Ji Qinglin didn't answer. Instead, he made a gesture to be quiet, then activated the voice simulator and connected to someone else on the dark web. Yu Ye saw that her Master's contact for this person was "Butler Tang."

As soon as the connection was established, a cordial greeting came from the other end from an old man:

"Master Huang! It's been a while since you've been online. Which unlucky fellow has caught your eye this time?"

Ji Qinglin replied concisely, "Flying Mantis Duan Tianpeng. I need his latest information, not the stuff you put on the wanted posters to fool outsiders."

"Understood. After it's done, we split the reward money three-seven?"

"If the information is detailed and accurate enough this time, I can increase your share to forty percent."

"Master Huang is generous. Wait for my news."

Master Huang is tall and tough! Wishing everyone a happy Friday!
