Yu Ye, who was below, dodged the flying needles from the Iron Gallbladder explosion and quickly climbed up through the smoke, just in time to see Master taking action.
Knowing the difference in strength and that the opponent might have other hidden weapons, Yu Ye didn't interfere. Instead, she flew up to the rooftop, blocking Duan Tianpeng's possible escape route.
Standing above, she thought she would see Master and Duan Tianpeng exchanging blows or engaging in a fierce fight, but she didn't expect that against this wanted criminal with considerable strength, she would still witness a one-sided crushing.
A Baji Collapse directly sent Duan Tianpeng flying into the opposite wall. From above, she could even see the faint airwave produced by the punch.
Master had taught her this move a few days ago, but compared to the power Master displayed today, her Baji Collapse seemed more like a One-Ji Collapse.
Crazy Night: It seems your Master was very cautious when training you.
Yu Ye: Compared to his techniques, I think his most terrifying aspect is his ability to conceal his true strength.
She thought this move would end the battle, but Duan Tianpeng clearly had some tricks up his sleeve. He drew a Soft Sword from his waist, wanting to make a last-ditch effort.
Master didn't bully him either, responding with a sword as well. But when Yu Ye saw Master's Black Sword being broken, she felt her heart stop for a moment.
Fortunately, the next moment, she saw Duan Tianpeng's head roll down, and his headless body followed, falling to the ground.
Yu Ye, who hadn't reacted either, was stunned for a moment before quickly approaching. Upon closer inspection, she found that the Black Sword in Ji Qinglin's hand was intact.
"Master, are you not injured?"
"I'm fine. Let's go, let's go down and see what treasures this guy has."
Duan Tianpeng's head, stained with blood, lay in the corner, his eyes already lifeless, but his expression still held the shock of his last moment. His headless body lay beside it, blood gurgling out of his cavity.
Seeing the smooth cut, Yu Ye still didn't understand:
"I clearly saw your sword being broken just now, how did you end up beheading Duan Tianpeng?"
"Who says a broken sword can't kill?"
"Uh, I guess that's true."
After several days of research, Ji Qinglin discovered that the greatest advantage of Mo Attack wasn't the plasticity and toughness of the Nanobots, but their connectivity and controllability.
Superior connectivity and operability allow them to maintain a state of motion like water.
As the saying goes, drawing a sword to cut water only makes it flow more.
With his current abilities, he couldn't achieve the so-called sword control, but techniques like using his own sword to penetrate the enemy's sword, feigning a broken sword to actually behead, weren't difficult to use.
After killing Duan Tianpeng, Ji Qinglin and his disciple quickly searched the body for spoils.
Although it was Yu Ye's first time, under the guidance of the good Master Ji Qinglin, her movements in searching for relics weren't clumsy.
Fortunately, the general commotion didn't disturb the knowledgeable residents of Bangkok, and it was already early morning. Otherwise, if someone unaware passed by the alley, they would definitely think this Master and disciple were the real bandits committing murder and robbery.
Fearing that the blood would make it difficult to explain to the grocery store, the two chose to deal with it directly in the alley.
Ji Qinglin took off Duan Tianpeng's backpack and handed it to Yu Ye, then picked up the Soft Sword that had fallen to the side and examined it carefully:
"Tsk, a Molecular Blade, probably a custom-made one. Yu Ye, quickly put it away. He seemed to have drawn it from his waist, remember to take the belt too."
Yu Ye had seen this kind of weapon in Zhenwu Magazine. The material and shape of the weapon itself could be customized, and the blade would be inlaid with molecular-level blade lines to ensure the weapon had extremely high sharpness.
Whether Duan Tianpeng stole this or had it custom-made, the patterns on the sword indicated that it was definitely expensive.
Yu Ye didn't expect that her usually stingy Master would be quite generous to her in terms of cultivation.
After Ji Qinglin finished speaking, he searched Duan Tianpeng's body again, but only found some cash and two storage devices.
Duan Tianpeng, who had been stealing his whole life, probably never imagined that after his death, he would encounter people who were even more thorough than him.
After confirming that nothing was missed, he stacked his body and head aside and covered them with clothes. The Master and disciple flew back to the hotel from the alley and sneaked back into Duan Tianpeng's room through the broken window.
Perhaps out of a thief's caution, always preparing to run away, no other stolen goods were found in the hotel.
"Alright, Yu Ye, open his backpack and see how our luck is, whether we can get something good."
Crazy Night: I am willing to exchange my virginity for a top-quality cultivation accessory.
Yu Ye: Virginity? Do you even have that kind of thing?
Crazy Night: If I don't have it, I'll just use yours.
Yu Ye: Get lost! Because she was also afraid that opening it would reveal a large pile of original-flavor underwear, Yu Ye carefully squeezed the backpack from the outside in advance, feeling that there should be a few harder things inside before slowly opening the backpack.
After seeing what was on top, Yu Ye frowned slightly, because what came into view was a crystal-clear right hand skeleton.
To prevent it from being some kind of mechanism, Yu Ye rummaged through her backpack again, confirming that the item was indeed not attached to anything, before carefully taking it out.
The entire hand bone looked crystal clear, as if it had been carved from a whole piece of crystal, and it did not suffer any damage despite falling from such a high place.
It also felt very warm to the touch, like an old object that had been handled for decades. Yu Ye held it in her hand and looked at it, curiously saying:
"Master, I've really never seen this thing before. Is it a weapon? Or..."
Before Yu Ye could finish speaking, Ji Qinglin raised his hand and pressed it against her red lips, then looked around, confirming that no one was nearby, before putting the Crystal Arm back into her backpack, and then replied in an extremely subtle voice:
"Let's go back and talk about it."
Because she was face to face with Ji Qinglin, Yu Ye could clearly see that her Master's face had changed a bit strangely. The usual smile was gone, and his brow was furrowed, even when he was facing Duan Tianpeng just now, he didn't have this expression.
Understanding that things must be very serious, Yu Ye didn't speak, nodded, and quickly followed her Master back to the grocery store along the alley.
It wasn't until they were sitting back on the sofa in the living room that Ji Qinglin took out the Crystal Arm from his backpack again. After examining it for a moment, he thought about it again, as if confirming something, and then finally let out a long breath and said:
"Trouble, trouble is coming."
"Master, is there something wrong with the thing in this backpack?"
Seeing that Yu Ye didn't seem to recognize the object, Ji Qinglin smiled wryly, "There's nothing wrong with the thing itself. Blame us, Master and disciple, for having too much luck."
Hearing this, Yu Ye thought for a moment, then looked at the Crystal Arm on the table, suddenly her breath froze, her almond eyes widened, but she still deliberately suppressed the shocked voice to a very low level:
"This, this couldn't be! Immortal Remains?"
Ji Qinglin pinched his chin and pondered, "I haven't seen the real thing, I just heard President Lei Qiong mention it once, saying that when he was young, he had seen a part of the Immortal Remains in a certain giant company. He said that the Immortal Remains only have bones, and the whole body is crystal clear.
A few days ago, Zhang HuaiMin also told me that the Immortal Remains of the President's family in West Chang District were lost, and the criminal went to North New District to sell the stolen goods. At that time, I felt a little puzzled. Since this guy has the ability to steal the Immortal Remains, why would he be stupid enough to let outsiders know where he is selling the stolen goods?
But if the thief who stole the Immortal Remains is Duan Tianpeng, then many things make sense."
Crazy Night: My God! Did you really get a top-quality item? Fortunately, it was exchanged for your virginity.
