Ji Zhang's Target? Flying Eagle Movement Technique Unlocked, Ji Zhang's Bloodsucking Exposed!

As for...

Telling Du Xiang, the master of Flying Eagle Martial Arts School, that Iron Cloth Martial Arts School and Lightning Sword Martial Arts School were planning to ambush and kill Flying Eagle Martial Arts School disciples?

Qin Wang did not consider it.

For one thing,

Du Xiang might ask, how did a newly arrived disciple like him know?

For another, getting involved brought him no benefit. It would be a terrible loss if it cost him his life.

The next day.

In the morning, Qin Wang went out and bought six Qi and Blood Pills in batches. After returning, he took the pills, cultivated the Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation for a while, then practiced the Flying Eagle Movement Technique.

Martial Arts: Flying Eagle Movement Technique. Incomplete (Beginner)

Progress: (1/800)

Effect: Agile movement, nimble shifts, light footsteps. Can achieve minor mastery in 1 year.

"Flying Eagle Movement Technique, finally unlocked."

"Next, I just need to wait for the Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation to unlock."

Early the next morning, Qin Wang looked at his panel, satisfaction showing in his eyes.

Chen Family.

The rear courtyard was extremely quiet.

In the yard, four slender young women sat on stools. All four wore green garments and remained silent.

"Sister Xuemei, there's less than half a year left. Do you... have any wishes?"

One of the girls in green suddenly looked toward the somewhat more mature-looking girl on her left and asked.

"Wishes?"

"I hope my younger brother can become a doctor someday, marry, and have children. What about you?"

Qin Xuemei looked at Xiao Zi, Xiao Lan, and Xiao Qing beside her as she spoke.

As Qin Xuemei spoke, the image of her younger brother Qin Wang surfaced in her mind, and relief appeared on her thin face.

With those twenty taels of silver, Wang Zai's future life should not be a problem. He was now working as an apprentice pharmacist at Hundred Herbs Hall. Perhaps he would become a doctor in the future. Being a doctor had prospects; perhaps he could even marry a wife someday and branch out with flourishing leaves.

At least the Qin Family would not have its line cut off.

Her sacrifice had not been in vain after all.

"I... I want to live."

"I don't want to be a sacrifice."

"Me too..."

Xiao Zi, Xiao Lan, and Xiao Qing murmured.

They still held onto the hope that their families might one day help redeem them, so naturally, they did not want to die.

Qin Xuemei fell silent at those words and looked toward the night sky.

East of the city.

Under the cover of night, inside a residence enclosed by blue-brick walls.

Two men in dark robes stood with a black-clad young man of about twenty-seven or twenty-eight. On the ground lay a young man of twenty-one or twenty-two, his eyes wide open in death, unable to rest in peace. A pool of blood spread beneath him.

"Uncle, your nephew has no way back now. From now on, I'll follow you!"

Lin Yunfeng, dressed in black, clasped his fists toward one of the dark-robed men and drew a deep breath.

He had joined Flying Eagle Martial Arts School ten years ago, yet had only been taught the first nine forms. He knew there were three stronger forms beyond them. Originally, he had planned to confess successfully to his junior sister Du Yunniang. Once he became Du Xiang's son-in-law, he should have been taught the final three forms.

But who could have expected it?

Falling flowers had feelings, but flowing water had none. His junior sister had no feelings for him.

He had despaired.

He knew that staying at Flying Eagle Martial Arts School offered no hope of further progress. It so happened that Lei Wu, his distant uncle who served as an instructor at Lightning Sword Martial Arts School, had approached him and asked him to provide the addresses of Flying Eagle Martial Arts School disciples and kill a fellow disciple as a token of allegiance.

He had done every last thing.

Once he took this step, there would be no turning back!

"Yunfeng, you should have done this long ago! With your talent, staying at Flying Eagle Martial Arts School is a waste of time!"

"Look at you. You've been at Flying Eagle Martial Arts School for ten years, yet that bastard Du Xiang still refuses to teach you the final three forms of Flying Eagle Movement Technique. He treats you completely as an outsider! The choice you made today was wise!!"

Lei Wu, the dark-robed man, looked at Lin Yunfeng in black, indignation in his voice.

"That's right, Yunfeng. Lei Wu is your uncle. Once you join Lightning Sword Martial Arts School, with that connection, you'll definitely be put to important use! Your martial arts will advance by leaps and bounds!"

"Don't worry!"

The other dark-robed man patted Lin Yunfeng on the shoulder and said solemnly.

"Mm."

Lin Yunfeng nodded and said to the two men, "Uncle, Uncle Quan, let's go find the next target!"

The three disguised the wound on the young man lying on the ground, then vanished into the night.

North of the city.

Inside the old house Qin Wang rented.

Before dawn, he sat in his room, looking at the panel.

"Ji Zhang, the Black River Gang leader, has suffered a flare-up of his demonic art? He needs to suck blood every 12 hours?"

"He'll suck my blood in 12 hours?"

Qin Wang looked at the first and second pieces of intel, his face instantly turning ashen. He shot to his feet.

He had never expected it.

Death was actually this close at hand!

An overwhelming terror engulfed his entire body!

He began trembling uncontrollably!

After all.

The Black River Gang leader's cultivation was absolutely no weaker than Zheng Kecheng's!

If he became the man's target, he would undoubtedly die!

Most terrifying of all.

Yacha Street was the very street where Qin Wang was currently renting a house. Ji Zhang, the Black River Gang leader, was hiding nearby!

This... was far too dangerous!

"I can't stay here! I need to move first!"

Qin Wang drew a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. The intel said Ji Zhang lay low by day and moved at night. He had just sucked Zhang Fan, the bun shop owner, dry, and would come looking in 12 hours. Did that mean he would be safe during these 12 hours?
