My Apprentice Is Too Diligent
Chapter 18 [018] Self-Destruction
Chapter 18: Self-Destruction
One step, two steps, three steps.
Closer, even closer.
"Why are you so slow? Quickly give me the jade pendant."
Yang Qin impatiently walked over, waving his hand to snatch the small wooden box.
But just as his hand reached out, he suddenly stopped, widened his eyes, and glared angrily at Chen Wuji.
"You want to kill..."
Swish!
A flash of sword light suddenly burst forth as Yang Qin was about to speak.
Swoosh~ Swoosh~ Swoosh!
Sharp sword qi erupted suddenly, continuously without pause.
Wave after wave, like pouring rain, engulfed Yang Qin, submerging him from the front, back, and sides.
The warning signs in Yang Qin's heart immediately sounded frantically.
Startled and angry, he had no choice but to passively defend himself in a hurry.
His figure kept retreating, and a short sword was unsheathed at his waist.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The clash of the short sword and the longsword produced sparks that flew in all directions.
With a mighty offensive, accompanied by terrifying force, the entire courtyard was swept away.
The ground, fences, and low walls cracked and shattered into pieces.
Yang Qin's retreating figure stopped after five steps.
It wasn't that he didn't want to continue retreating, but his right calf was slightly slow in movement, resulting in being cut by the extremely sharp sword qi, causing his knee to shatter and forcing him to half-kneel on the ground.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The continuous sword attacks did not stop, ignoring the pressure of Body Refining Eighth Layer, entangling and cutting off both of Yang Qin's arms amidst his shouts.
"Pfft!" "Pfft~"
"Ah!!"
The sound of impact accompanied the screams, echoing in the night.
Two bloody arms flew into the air.
Without his arms, Yang Qin lost his balance and fell to the ground, spitting out blood.
Swoosh~
A figure flashed by.
Chen Wuji put away his short sword and quickly touched Yang Qin's body, sealing the bleeding wounds and half of his ability to speak.
"Heh~ Heh~"
Yang Qin took a long breath, trying to calm his breath, but could only produce a hoarse and weak tone like a broken bellows.
"Who... who are you?"
"What about Kong Kong...?"
"You... could it be..."
With bloodshot eyes, Yang Qin endured the intense pain and thought of something, his pupils dilated. "Chen Wuji! You are Chen Wuji, right!?"
Chen Wuji did not respond, but searched Yang Qin's body and found a one thousand two silver note and a warm jade pendant with the characters "born" engraved on it.
Another jade pendant!
"What is this jade pendant for?" Chen Wuji's voice was low as he stared at Yang Qin. "Why do you have to get it?"
"Haha, hahaha..."
Yang Qin grinned, wanting to laugh out loud.
Smack! Smack!
Chen Wuji reached out and sealed his ability to speak.
Then, just like dealing with Kong Kong, he manipulated the bones in Yang Qin's body, causing him excruciating pain but unable to die.
"Ugh!"
In an instant, Yang Qin's face turned pale as paper, sweat poured down like rain, and his body with only one leg trembled incessantly.
Chen Wuji calmly watched this scene.
After waiting for a cup of tea's time, he finally relieved the pain and asked again.
"What is the use of the jade pendant?"
"Haha... haha..." A sickly flush appeared on Yang Qin's pale face as he struggled to speak. "No... matter... who you are, you are... doomed... to die!"
"Roar!"
After speaking, he let out a low roar, his eyeballs bulged, his mouth opened wide, and his chest suddenly arched upward, as if there was a little mouse in his chest that suddenly wanted to come out.
Huh?
Chen Wuji saw this and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly retreated.
"Boom!"
Just as he retreated, a loud explosion was heard.
Chen Wuji frowned.
This suicidal secret technique, Yang Qin actually learned it.
Not only did he learn it, he also practiced it to a high level.
In less than a breath, he completed the suicide, liberated himself, and guarded the secret.
The secret of the jade pendant!
"Xiong Zeng, the leader of the same gang, has it, and so does Yang Qin, the government catcher."
"Behind this 'born' jade pendant, there is most likely a strict and mysterious force."
"Xiong Zeng, Yang Qin, are they part of it?"
"In White Water County, how many people have the same identity as Xiong Zeng and Yang Qin?"
"Do they know about me?"
Chen Wuji frowned.
Yang Qin died too quickly.
Originally, Chen Wuji wanted to ambush and severely injure Yang Qin, making him lose his ability to move and slowly interrogate him.
After all, Yang Qin himself is also at the Body Refining Eighth Layer, although he recently broke through.
They assumed their positions and faced each other.
Chen Wuji was confident in killing Yang Qin, but the commotion caused would be significant and might leak information.
On this point, Yang Qin and Chen Wuji had the same concerns.
Who would have thought that Yang Qin would control his blood and organs to commit suicide?
Without extracting the secret of the jade pendant from Yang Qin's mouth, the subsequent hidden dangers cannot be avoided.
What Chen Wuji most wanted to know was how many people still knew that he had the jade pendant.
"It seems that I need to find a place to hide the two jade pendants."
Taking a deep breath, Chen Wuji stabilized his mind.
Once the clues were lost, they were lost.
Not many people possess this special jade pendant.
At least not in White Water County.
The reason is simple. If there are still people who know that Chen Wuji has the jade pendant, then tonight, it won't just be Yang Qin waiting for nothing.
Yang Qin was wary of Chen Wuji killing Luo Butu and didn't want to take risks himself.
If he had an accomplice.
They could easily join forces and directly break into the Chen Family's courtyard to capture Chen Wuji.
No matter the reason, the fact that Yang Qin chose to let Kong Kong steal the item while he himself didn't take the risk meant that there was still room for negotiation.
Therefore.
There were hidden dangers, but the risk of direct exposure was still within a controllable range.
...
After understanding all this, Chen Wuji cleaned up the scene, pieced together Yang Qin's corpse, tied it up with clothes, and then carried it in his hands as he hurried out of the city.
As for the scattered internal organs and flesh on the ground, he didn't bother to clean them up; it was too troublesome.
The main thing was the body.
If there was no body and no living person was seen, it meant disappearance.
Disappearance gave Chen Wuji time.
No matter who was behind the jade pendant, as long as his strength increased, Chen Wuji would not be afraid.
...
Leaving the city, he threw the body into a mountain stream.
Returning to the county town.
It was already bright outside.
Returning to the Chen Family's courtyard, he took a bath, returned to his original appearance, and changed into new clothes.
Chen Wuji went about his usual routine, having breakfast and checking the progress of his disciples' cultivation.
He taught the "Electric Light Step" to a few disciples.
The feedback came quickly.
For the disciples with high compatibility, after they started practicing, their proficiency increased.
After two days.
Chen Wuji's "Electric Light Step" reached a proficient level with the help of the disciples.
At noon that day, just as he was about to have lunch, Chen Qingning suddenly rushed in from the entrance in a panic.
From afar, she shouted loudly.
"Master, something bad happened, Xiao Ba is missing!"
