After a short period of intense pain, Jin Cang was gradually adapting, slowly regaining consciousness.

He pretended to continue screaming loudly, but secretly gathered his internal energy, planning to counterattack as soon as Wang Sheng got close.

However, Wang Sheng's caution, pinning him in place with swords and blades, plunged Jin Cang into despair.

"Who are you?"

"Who the hell are you?"

"Someone from the Liu Family, or one of my shameless Senior Brothers!"

"Jing Kui, is that you? You've always been in close contact with the Liu Family. Did you get the Liu Family's Blood Stacking Technique and come to kill me! If you dare kill me, Master will surely kill you, you beast!"

"You treacherous scoundrel, I'll haunt you even as a ghost..."

Jin Cang cursed wildly. He knew he wouldn't survive, so he could only vent his fury through curses.

At the same time, he wanted Tian Mu Zhen outside to hear him, so he could tell their Master to get revenge.

Wang Sheng frowned slightly as he listened to Jin Cang's curses.

The few swords from earlier didn't seem to have struck Jin Cang's heart or head.

It seemed Jin Cang had consciously dodged them at that time.

"As expected of a veteran Dark Energy expert. My combo attack hasn't killed him yet!"

Even though Wang Sheng knew Jin Cang would likely die if he left now, he didn't like leaving loose ends. What if someone from Thousand Cranes Tower used some unknown precious medicine to save Jin Cang? That would be trouble.

So Wang Sheng strode forward and walked up to Jin Cang.

"It's you!"

When Jin Cang saw Wang Sheng's face, which couldn't be hidden even with his transformation, his body trembled, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

He couldn't and wouldn't believe that the person killing him was Wang Sheng!

How could it be Wang Sheng!

The Bright Energy trash he thought he could easily handle during the day, whom others considered to have no hope of advancing to Dark Energy!

And he came to kill him at night!

At this moment, Jin Cang felt unprecedented regret and hatred.

He regretted why he had bothered to provoke this Junior Brother when he had nothing else to do.

He hated Wu An even more, hated the Liu Family, and hated that without them, he wouldn't have had a reason to oppress Wang Sheng for no reason.

"Rest in peace!"

Wang Sheng stomped down with his foot.

"Ugh!"

Jin Cang couldn't even manage to shout Wang Sheng's name, only letting out a muffled grunt before his neck snapped under the stomp.

Jin Cang's eyes were wide open, his spirit unable to rest.

Wang Sheng then searched Jin Cang, the Young Master of the Liu Family, the bald man, and a few others before leaving through the alley that appeared behind the collapsed wall.

A Dark Energy martial artist, skilled in stealth, hid in the darkness behind another wall, intending to track him quietly.

Wang Sheng suddenly stopped and punched directly through a wall surrounding the alley.

The Dark Energy martial artist behind the wall couldn't dodge in time, his shoulder was hit, dislocated, and twisted.

Wang Sheng's massive body crashed through the wall, Beneath the countless scattered stones and debris, Wang Sheng threw three punches and beat a Dark Energy martial artist to death.

Several Dark Energy martial artists from the upper echelons of Thousand Cranes Tower, who had just stepped out from the doors and windows onto the adjacent rooftop, gasped and felt a chill run down their spines upon seeing this.

Wang Sheng glanced back. Trying to be a fisherman watching a battle between snipe and clam?

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!"

One Dark Energy martial artist forced a smile.

The Dark Energy martial artists exchanged glances, then simultaneously turned and fled back into Thousand Cranes Tower.

After the time it takes an incense stick to burn.

Wang Sheng hid himself in an inn.

The commotion tonight had indeed been quite large.

Thousand Cranes Tower housed many wealthy and influential figures. It was not impossible that there were still experts who dared to follow him.

Therefore, Wang Sheng dared not go home and came to the inn to recuperate.

Of course, Wang Sheng wasn't injured either.

It's just that after activating the second layer of the Blood Stacking Technique, there would be a few days of weakness.

In response, Wang Sheng had already bought some pills to replenish his energy.

Gulp!

After swallowing several pills, Wang Sheng began to check his spoils.

The bundle, wrapped into a ball, was spread out on the table.

Some blood-stained items were revealed under the oil lamp.

First were the blood-stained bank notes and scattered silver, ten taels of gold and a hundred taels of gold, totaling about three thousand taels of silver.

If nothing else, this wealth alone made Wang Sheng quite satisfied.

With this silver, it was enough for him to cultivate for a while. He hadn't finished the Great Heaven Supplement Pill he bought last time, so this time he could consider buying a protective inner armor.

Then there were three cultivation manuals. One was called Flying Fish Leg, from Jin Cang. Two were called Thunderclap Skill and Thousand Poisons Hand, from the Liu Family's Young Master.

All three manuals led directly to the completion of Dark Energy, with no subsequent Transforming Energy.

"Thunderclap Skill really has some tricks!"

After examining them, Wang Sheng felt that the Liu Family's Thunderclap Skill was good; it could deal great damage and also allow for a quick escape at critical moments.

He was currently in need of a leg technique.

As for the Flying Fish Leg, it leaned towards agility and mobility, which, for Wang Sheng, was not as comprehensive as Thunderclap Skill.

Thousand Poisons Hand could be considered a unorthodox technique, but it was very useful at critical moments. Wang Sheng felt it was necessary to study it in his spare time.

If there was a real need, he could add it to his cultivation path.

The remaining spoils were several Heavenly Mandate Cult tokens, a Treasure Map Fragment, a letter, and a few bottles of pills.

Wang Sheng looked at the Treasure Map Fragment and found that to assemble the complete treasure map, at least five more pieces were needed.

"The Liu Family's treasure location."

"The Liu Family is known as a century-old family; they should understand the principle of a cunning rabbit having three burrows. Perhaps finding the treasure location could lead to a big profit. It's a pity so many pieces are missing. There's not much hope!"

Wang Sheng said helplessly.

He didn't need to think about it; most of the treasure map fragments were definitely in the hands of the Heavenly Mandate Cult.

"This letter!"

"A letter from the Divine Incense Cult trying to recruit Jin Cang. Offering a Transforming Energy manual, a thousand taels of gold, and the identity of a court official with the rank of Baihu. They're really painting a big picture."

"Uh, what the heck is this Master's Wife Liang? This Divine Incense Cult even knows Jin Cang likes his Master's Wife, and they've agreed to give Lady Liang to him to play with after the matter is settled!"

Wang Sheng shook his head as he read to the end.

This Divine Incense Cult was too bold, daring to set their sights on a Transforming Energy Grandmaster.

The Divine Incense Cult had definitely recruited more than one person. If this continued, they would be exposed sooner or later. At that time, perhaps the rebel army wouldn't have arrived yet, and Ershui City would have fallen into internal strife!

Afterward, Wang Sheng identified the pills. Most of them were for recovering from injuries and improving cultivation, similar to the Great Heaven Supplement Pill.

"The aristocratic Liu Family is finished. Something big will definitely happen tomorrow. I hope it won't be too chaotic!"

After classifying and packing the items, Wang Sheng sat down cross-legged, thinking to himself.

He still wanted to cultivate steadily for a period of time.

He now had cultivation manuals and money. Even if he didn't have a Transforming Energy manual and couldn't advance to Transforming Energy, Wang Sheng could use all his Dark Energy techniques to pile up to a terrifying cultivation level, capable of killing a Transforming Energy expert with a single punch!
