Chapter 6
Killing! Breath Control Technique (2-in-1)
On Haunted Slope Mountain, the Blackhawk Gang
The young man was lying on the tiger skin carpet, holding a jar of wine in his hand and drinking it.
“Lord Black Wolf.” Some soldiers ingratiated themselves.
“What is it?” Black Wolf was impatient. He was the nephew of the chief, Black Eagle, so his status in the gang was extraordinary.
“The chief said that you have to go down the mountain every month to practice.” One of the soldiers hesitated. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com
“Are there any women? I’m not going without a woman!” ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m
“There are! I’ve already found one for you!”
“After your practice, there’s a hunter less than half a li away. His daughter was very attractive!”
Black Wolf immediately sat up. “Alright! Let’s go if there are women!”
…
On the way to Bo Feng Town, more and more emaciated people appeared on both sides of the road, and more and more people were heading in the direction of Pingnan City, escaping their original hometown.
Their eyes were listless, and they were wandering on the road like zombies. Their destination was Pingnan City, but it didn’t seem to be.
Qin Huai seemed to be like Gao Ruyang a year ago, a little numb to this scene.
“The most powerful mountain bandit in town is the Blackhawk Gang’s chief.”
Qin Huai sat in the carriage and told his junior brothers and sisters what Gao Ruyang had told him in the past.
His voice stopped abruptly. There were clamoring sounds outside.
“Stop! All of you stop!”
Qin Huai calmly walked out of the carriage, followed by Luo Ya and the others.
“Fellow heroes, this is the toll.” Qin Huai was very familiar with this and took out some silver from his pocket.
But this time, the other party didn’t take it.
The leader of the mountain bandits stared at Luo Ya, who was standing behind Qin Huai. The look in his eyes was obvious.
“You can leave, but leave this girl behind!” The eyes of the mountain bandit, Black Wolf, were filled with lust.
“Hero, we are the disciples of the Liu family’s apothecary in Pingnan City. Our master is…”
But before Qin Huai could finish, he was interrupted by Black Wolf. “I don’t care who you are! Leave the little girl behind and get lost! If you don’t want to, then you won’t pass.”
Black Wolf looked fierce.
“My master is Liu Changyue.”
“I said, get lost! This is your last chance!”
“In the past, I gave you face because of the silver. What kind of apothecary are you?” Black Wolf laughed and wagged his finger.
“Other than the eight martial arts dojos, none of them are of any use to the Blackhawk Gang!”
Luo Ya’s face was pale, and she could not say a word. The others were also at a loss, not knowing where to look. They all knew that the Blackhawk Gang’s reputation was well known in Pingnan city.
“Senior Brother, why don’t we leave first?” The junior brother, Gu Erwa, tugged at Qin Huai’s sleeve. “Go back and tell Master. Let him handle this matter.”
Gu Erwa was anxious as he added, “Besides, Junior Sister Luo’s family is well-off. Her family will have their own means.”
The others didn’t say anything, but their meaning was self-evident. In fact, they all knew that if they left Luo Ya alone, they would not be able to return. They were just thinking about the best side of things and convincing themselves of their guilt.
Luo Ya looked at the group of fierce mountain bandits in front of her, her face drained of blood.
“Master always taught us that doctors should have a kind heart and save the dying and heal the wounded. Now that I have martial arts, how can I watch my junior sister be taken away by the mountain bandits?” Qin Huai was expressionless. “You guys go first, I’ll handle this.”
His junior sister had treated him well, so how could he abandon her at this time? If he left now...then what’s the use of practicing martial arts?
“Let’s go! Why are you still standing there?” Gu Erwa wailed, his heart bursting with joy. If this Qin Huai wanted to court death, he would definitely not stop him. He could not wait for Qin Huai to be dismembered by the Blackhawk Gang.
Once Gu Erwa spoke, the crowd did not dare to disobey. They stopped persuading Qin Huai and returned with the carriage.
Only Qin Huai and Luo ya were left behind to face the group of mountain bandits from the Blackhawk Gang.
“A drug seller wants to rebel against the Blackhawk Gang?” Black Wolf sneered. “It’s really true that since ancient times, heroes can’t get past beauties. No, not even a bear can!”
Black Wolf gave him a look. The next moment, one of the mountain bandits circled to Qin Huai’s blind spot and stabbed him.
Qin Huai’s spirit jolted. He reacted quickly, turned around, and grabbed the blade. His right hand clenched into a fist and struck out with all his might.
Pfft!
A mouthful of blood splattered all over Qin Huai’s body.
Qin Huai was stunned. There was no one in front of him, but he was holding a soft arm in his hand.
‘What great strength!’
The mountain bandit’s arm was broken by Qin Huai’s punch, and he fell limply to the ground. There was a depression in his chest that was several inches deep, and he was no longer breathing.
This was the first time he had attacked someone since he had entered the martial warrior realm.
It also allowed Qin Huai to have a clear understanding of a martial artist’s power of Qi and blood for the first time, and he was filled with confidence.
Although the Qi cultivation technique wasn’t good at attacking, the transformation of Qi and blood when he became a martial artist was still too terrifying.
He looked at the corpse under his feet and saw several white experience balls.
“You have experience in killing people?” Qin Huai was puzzled and immediately collected the experience balls.
“Ding! You have collected a [ Breath Control Essence (White) ], [ Breath Control ] Experience +13!”
A breath control technique? Wasn’t this the martial arts that the Black Eagle gang cultivated?
...
Furthermore, a mountain bandit actually had 13 experience points. These mountain bandits were of a higher realm than the internal affairs apprentices of the apothecary?
Something was wrong, and Qin Huai realized the problem right away. This was the experience ball that he had gotten from killing people. It was different from picking up the experience balls of his fellow disciples.
The experience ball that dropped from killing people would give more experience.
“He’s a martial artist?!”
The remaining four mountain bandits gulped.
Qin Huai strode toward the four of them. He punched out with both fists, and no one could block him.
He exchanged a punch with a mountain bandit, and their fists collided for an instant.
The crisp sound of bones breaking was heard. The mountain bandit’s arm was instantly twisted, and he knelt on the ground in pain.
“Die!” One of them had a fiendish look on his face as he sneaked an attack on Qin Huai’s waist from behind.
Buzzzzzz!
Qin Huai suddenly exerted his strength and used his vigorous Qi and blood to clamp down on the long knife the moment it entered his flesh, preventing it from moving in the slightest. Then, he turned around and threw a punch.
...
His opponent’s chest caved in. It was as if he was punching each of the mountain bandits to death.
A martial artist’s power was a dimension-lowering attack to ordinary people.
“Ding! You have collected a [ Breath Control Essence (Ehite) ], [ Breath Control ] Experience +22!”
“Ding! You have collected a [ Breath Control Essence (White) ], [ Breath Control ] Experience +16!”
“[ Breath Control ] Experience +30!
“Wait! Wait a minute!” Black Wolf cried out in fear. He had not expected Qin Huai to be a martial artist! “The Blackhawk Gang has always sought revenge for the smallest grievance. If you kill me, you will never be a businessman again!”
“If I kill all of you, no one will know that I did it, right?” Qin Huai was serious.
“My uncle is the chief of the Blackhawk Gang!” Black Wolf roared. “And the reason why our gang is called the Blackhawk Gang is that we have the black hawk to send messages. Nothing in this land can escape our eyes.”
Black Wolf’s eyes were sharp, and his hands were quick. He did not know why, but his hands were fluttering.
A black hawk flew out of his arms and into the air. By the time Qin Huai reacted, it had already flown more than ten meters high.
“I’ve already spread the news about this. If you kill me, you’ll have to take another path in the future!” Black Wolf’s face was ferocious, and his heart was in a panic. He had not had the time to write the report in such a short time, so he had only released the messenger bird to scare Qin Huai.
“Don’t think that you’re great just because you’re a martial artist. You can kill three to five people, but what about thirty to fifty? My gang has fifty men!” Black Wolf continued to press on. “My uncle is the chief of the Blackhawk Gang! Let me go, alright? Let’s have a good talk.”
Bang! Bang!
Without a word, Qin Huai killed Black Wolf with a punch.
“As a mountain bandit, why are you looking for trouble with me? I just want to live a good life and earn some money.” Qin Huai took the mountain bandit’s clothes and wiped the bloodstains off his body. Then, he stabbed another group of mountain bandits.
In the end, the guy even revealed that his uncle was the big boss of the Blackhawk Gang. If he was so stupid, then all the more he couldn’t let him live.
As for the message… Although the black bird was not caught, Qin Huai could still see it clearly with his warrior’s vision. There was no letter tied to it. Unless the black bird could speak human language and retell everything that had happened…
However, if the Blackhawk Gang had such a divine bird, Pingnan City would have to change its surname to Black Hawk.
“[ Breath Control ] Experience +70!”
This Black Wolf actually gave him 70 experience points?
Qin Huai was puzzled. He could sense that Black Wolf’s martial arts attainments were even inferior to those of the others. He was just a good-for-nothing mountain bandit.
“I understand. It’s probably caused by his evil deeds.” Qin Huai came to a realization.
Killing him could be considered as getting rid of the tyrants and bringing peace to the good. It was some kind of “gift from the Heavenly Dao.”
“This person is very familiar with taking advantage of women. He must be a repeat offender.”
Qin Huai’s heart stirred as he looked at his personal panel.
Name: Qin Huai
[ Cultivation Method ]: [ Qi nurturing technique (level 48, 923/1000) ], [ Breath Control technique (level 1, 51/200) ]
[ Skill: Alchemy (advanced, 247/1600) ]
[ Stage ]: Level 1 Blood Refinement Realm
Qin Huai sensed that even his breathing had become lighter. When he activated his breath control technique, he felt a light breeze under his feet, which weakened the sound.
“This martial art is really useful.” Qin Huai sighed. If his breath control technique were at a higher level, he would be on the same level as the Blackhawk Gang’s chief.
He walked silently, like a ghost. The guild would be much more convenient. However, this cultivation technique was not good at attacking.
“Senior Brother, what should we do next?” Lou Ya’s entire body was trembling.
“Keep this matter to yourself and never mention it again,” Qin Huai instructed.
Luo Ya was already at a loss and could only nod her head.
The two of them buried the bodies of Black Wolf and the others on the spot, then covered the scene with soil, trying to remove traces as much as possible.
After that, they returned to Pingnan City.
