Qin Ye's True Strength, Beyond Your Imagination!

"So, I'm sending you down to reunite with him!"

Qin Shuang sneered, a layer of Qi and Blood Gauze Robe forming on his body. He spread out the Fierce Tiger Fist and used the Swimming Dragon Steps to pounce at Liang Chang!

"I didn't expect you to be hiding this deep!"

"But still too green! You have no idea what your Uncle Liang's real strength is!"

As Liang Chang watched Qin Shuang charge over, the Qi and Blood aura radiating from his body was unmistakably the Bone Forging Realm. Qi and Blood Gauze Robe. Though shocked, he felt a slight relief—thought it was some formidable enemy, but it's just a Bone Forging Realm with a Qi and Blood Gauze Robe!

After all, his own strength had reached the Bone Forging Realm's Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke!

Even if this Qin Shuang had the power of a Qi and Blood Gauze Robe, he'd still have to kneel!

At the same time.

A gleam flashed in his eyes. This kid was clearly at the Bone Forging Realm, yet he hadn't noticed a single clue on the street just now!

Obviously, this bastard had a method to conceal his Qi and Blood. If he could get his hands on it, that would be a huge haul!

Liang Chang finished speaking, and with a bang, the terrifying Qi and Blood of the Bone Forging Realm burst outward. A column of Qi and Blood about three meters high rose from his body, soaring into the air like wolf smoke!

A fierce, terrifying aura spread from him.

"Hand over your technique for concealing Qi and Blood, and Uncle Liang will spare your life!"

Liang Chang's tone was low, holding a long blade as he advanced on Qin Shuang.

Qin Shuang paid him no mind. With a Fierce Tiger Pouncing, he threw a punch at Liang Chang's chest. At the same time, his Qi and Blood suddenly flared fully, erupting into Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke as well!

And.

Above his head, that Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke actually formed the shadow of a blood-red fierce tiger. The tiger opened its massive maw, and a terrifying tiger might swept forth!

"Ah... a... a Tiger-shaped Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke?"

Liang Chang realized that Qin Shuang had also condensed Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke, and moreover, it was a tiger-shaped one, far more imposing than his own. He was greatly alarmed and tried to use his movement technique to dodge, but it was too late.

"Boom!"

A sound of bones cracking rang out. Caught off guard, Liang Chang took a punch to the chest from Qin Shuang. His Qi and Blood churned, blood sprayed from his mouth, and his body bent like a shrimp as he crashed backward through the blue brick wall and into the side room!

"You... you!"

Blood trickled from the corner of Liang Chang's mouth as he stared at Qin Shuang, shockwaves surging in his heart.

Qin Shuang was only sixteen or seventeen—how could his strength surpass his own?

How the hell did he train?

"Old bastard, you have no idea what your Master Qin's real strength is!"

Qin Shuang used the Swimming Dragon Steps to appear inside the room. Looking at Liang Chang struggling to get up amid the broken bricks, he struck out with both fists, smashing all four of his limbs, and spoke calmly.

Liang Chang's face twisted in pain, blood seeping from his lips, utterly miserable. A pleading look appeared in his eyes. "Brother... Brother Qin, there's no great grudge between us... If you'll just spare me... I won't ask for that One Thousand Taels of Silver anymore. All my property... I'll give it to you, okay?"

He didn't want to die.

He had struggled and fought too hard to reach his current position. If he died like this, he wouldn't accept it. As long as he lived, he could find a way to get it all back later!

And if he got the chance, he could even find a way to kill Qin Shuang for revenge!

If he died, there would be nothing!

"Let's hear it. Is it enough to buy your life?"

Qin Shuang's eyes lit up with anticipation at these words.

Right now, he was short on silver and Tiger Blood Pills. If he could squeeze Liang Chang dry, that would be even better.

"Three courtyards, four thousand taels of silver, over sixty Tiger Blood Pills, a hundred pieces of gold and jewelry... If... if Brother Qin spares me, I'll give it all to you!" Liang Chang looked at Qin Shuang, hope flickering in his eyes.

"If you behave yourself and don't pull any tricks, I can spare your dog life!"

"Where are the things?"

Qin Shuang's heart stirred. This bastard had really hoarded a lot over the years. If he used it all to buy Qi and Blood Pills, it would be enough to temper his Qi and Blood for a while!

"Please, Brother Qin, swear an oath not to kill me, and I'll immediately tell you where my wealth is hidden."

Liang Chang looked at Qin Shuang, speaking with blood at the corner of his mouth.

He feared Qin Shuang would go back on his word and kill him as soon as he got the goods.

"Since you have no sincerity, then die now!"

Qin Shuang grabbed Liang Chang by the collar, his gaze dark and murderous.

If he killed Liang Chang, he could still find the stuff—it would just take a bit more time.

A terrifying surge of Qi and Blood erupted, and above Qin Shuang, the Qi and Blood condensed into a fierce tiger shadow about three meters tall, pressing down on Liang Chang!

"Wait, don't strike... I... I'll talk!!"

Seeing Qin Shuang's killing intent, Liang Chang's heart sank, and he quickly spoke. "It's... in the basement of Fugui Courtyard No. 16."

At this moment.

Liang Chang knew perfectly well that if he didn't speak, he'd die immediately. If he did speak, there was still a slim chance to live.

"If you try any tricks, I'll make your life a living hell!!"

Qin Shuang looked at Liang Chang, murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"N-no... I wouldn't dare..."

Liang Chang stammered, his face pale with fear.

Qin Shuang then found a dishcloth in the room, stuffed it into Liang Chang's mouth, hoisted him up, and used Grass on Flying to head toward the banks of the Clear Water River. Before leaving, Qin Shuang didn't forget to search the bodies, finding only three hundred Copper Coins on Chen Gui and Big Head.

With Qin Shuang's Bone Forging Realm Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke strength, carrying Liang Chang was like carrying a scarecrow!

Qin Shuang hid Liang Chang in a dense thicket by the river, tying him to a tree with his limbs bound like a zongzi. After taking his keys, Qin Shuang picked up the cage holding Dragonfly and Green Grass and headed toward Fugui Courtyard.

Fugui Courtyard was a residential complex built by the Flying Eagle Gang in Qingzhou City. It featured rockeries, bamboo groves, lotus ponds, small bridges over streams, and elegant pavilions—only the wealthy and powerful could live there.

Each courtyard occupied an area of twenty zhang, with a bluestone training ground in the middle and a central courtyard, all enclosed by walls over one zhang high.

The courtyards were spaced ten zhang apart.

Purple bamboo was planted in the gaps, rustling softly in the breeze.

"So this is Liang Chang's courtyard?"

Qin Shuang arrived at Fugui Courtyard and found the courtyard with house number 16. A large iron lock hung on the gate. After looking around to make sure no one was passing by, Qin Shuang used the key to open the lock and entered the courtyard.

A few strands of Green Grass sprouted from the cracks between the bluestone slabs.

Qin Shuang closed the courtyard gate and headed toward the main hall.

In the left side room, he spotted an Eight Horses Painting on the wall beside the bed. Lifting the painting, he found a fist-sized bump underneath. Qin Shuang pressed the bump down, then lifted the bedsheet.

"Crack!!"

With a soft sound, a square opening three chi wide appeared in the bed board. Faint light flickered from below, revealing eleven bluestone steps leading down to a basement paved with bluestone slabs.

"Looks like Liang Chang wasn't lying."

Qin Shuang looked at the cellar, found an oil lamp, lit it, and descended cautiously, keeping a watchful eye on the flame.

The basement was about two zhang square. In the corner sat three red lacquered boxes—one large and two small. The large box was three chi in size, the small ones two chi.

Qin Shuang found a long stick, walked over, and pried open one of the boxes.

Instantly, a box full of gleaming Silver Ingots appeared before him.

If you can't find the book by its title, try searching by the author—maybe it's just been renamed!
