My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

68 Master Qin! The Young Master as His Disciple!

Qin Huai stepped on the dead leaves and passed through the dense forest.

In fact, the corpses were not far, only about ten meters away. Even before the dead bodies were seen, the strong smell of blood already made Qin Huai frown.

After walking in, the first thing he saw was the ground full of corpses. Half of their heads had been gnawed off, leaving red and white things behind. There were also some broken arms and legs hanging from the trees.

There were a few people who were on the verge of death in the pool of blood, and they were still breathing. In the middle was a young man, wearing a pink robe that was similar to the one made of river water, tied up and lying on the ground.

!!

“Did Big Brother come to save me? Big brother, I know you love me the most,” he said weakly.

Qin Huai broke off a two-meter-long branch and poked the young man to turn over.

When the young man heard the sound, he gritted his teeth and did a carp flip.

He couldn’t get up. However, after rolling on the ground, he rolled to the front, but he closed his eyes tightly, not daring to open them at all.

Qin Huai looked at his appearance. It was simply carved out of the same mold as the city lord in the portrait, so he shouldn’t be the black-robed man and the hunchback’s accomplice.

Qin Huai removed his blood dragon form, and his entire body instantly became much thinner. Then, he used a branch to break the rope on the young man’s body.

“Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Qin, for saving my life!” Only then did Hu Jinghai dare to open his eyes. He stood up and bowed to Qin Huai. His humble attitude didn’t seem like the young master of the city lord at all.

He had just witnessed the entire battle, and he was only playing dumb because he was afraid that Qin Huai would kill him to silence him. Now, he was relieved.

“It’s fine. We’re all family.” Qin Huai smiled and patted his shoulder. At the same time, he activated the blood heart technique.

The blood heart technique was sensitive and could be used to distinguish the strength of other people’s qi and blood. This was also the reason why the black-robed man could roughly judge his own realm. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

The strength of his vitality was around the second refinement, and there was a high probability that he had used qi and blood pills to get it. Such weakness was definitely not a disguise by the Sacred Heart believers.

He threw an antidote pill at Hu Jinghai.

Hu Jinghai was taken aback and quickly swallowed it.

“I understand the rules. You can detoxify me when you can prove my identity.” He had read a lot of wuxia novels, so he was familiar with this plot.

“This is an antidote.” The corners of Hu Jinghai’s mouth twitched. He had no idea when he had been poisoned. What an expert!

Qin Huai no longer paid attention to Hu Jinghai and walked toward the corpses and remains. After that, he gathered them into a pile and pieced them together.

Hu Jinghai also rushed forward to help, but he couldn’t help but see the broken arms and exposed internal organs, as well as a mix of red, yellow, and white flesh.

Oh~

He couldn’t help but vomit. However, he still wanted to help. Qin Huai didn’t stop him and only sped up his tidying up.

After some effort, Qin Huai and Hu Jinghai barely managed to get thirteen people, and they also managed to get a huge amount of silver notes of more than 3,800 taels.

“I’ve let them down. If I didn’t want to help my father and big brother, they wouldn’t have died.” Hu Jinghai looked at the familiar faces on the ground and suddenly burst into tears.

Qin Huai ignored him and walked back to where the bodies of the black-robed man and the hunchback man were. They found a whole ten thousand taels of silver notes on the two of them, as well as some gaudy jewelry and jadeite.

After this round of killing, they got a few thousand taels more than the armor that the Luo manor had made over the past two months. It was simply a huge profit.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, there was a loud noise behind him, followed by a bright firework that flew into the sky and exploded.

It was Hu Jinghai’s distress signal.

Shua, shua, shua.

Hu Jinghai quickly ran over. “Qin. No… Master! Please teach me martial arts!” He knelt behind Qin Huai with a plop.

Qin Huai was shocked. “Why are you doing this? There are so many experts in the city lord’s mansion.”

“My aptitude is extremely poor, and I’m on the opposite end of the spectrum from my big brother.

“I’ve been practicing martial arts since I was young, but it’s useless. I’m already seventeen, but I’m only in the first refinement… Father used a vat of vitality soup and pills, but they only pushed my qi and blood to the second refinement…

“And the result… I still can’t withstand a single blow, and I can’t help my father and big brother at all.”

Hu Jinghai was depressed, but his tone changed as he said, “But you’re different, Master. I saw your battle just now! Your poison skills are top-notch. One of them vomited blood before the fight even started.

“These are fourth refinement martial artists. If they were third refinement, wouldn’t you be able to kill them without even lifting a finger?! I think with my aptitude, I’m suitable to follow you in this kind of martial arts.”

Hu Jinghai was so excited that he even danced with joy. In this other world where he had his own family and career at thirteen or fourteen, he was clearly a little too childish.

“This path is difficult, and I’m only a mountaineer who has just glimpsed the path. I’m far from being a teacher,” Qin Huai said.

Hu Jinghai’s face was instantly filled with disappointment. “Master, just take me in. I’ll do anything you want! Money, women, resources… Master, feel free to ask. It’s just a test for the disciples.”

Qin Huai pretended to be deep in thought. He hesitated for a while before answering, “Fine. Seeing that you’re sincere in your studies, I’ll force myself to accept you.”

Having a young master of the city lord’s mansion as a disciple might be useful in the future.

“This branch of martial arts doesn’t have any requirements for talent or foundation, but you must study hard. This is a path where you can see the rewards if you work hard. When you go back, read two stacks of medical books in the city, then I will teach you the real skills,” Qin Huai blurted out. He had already thought about it.

“Many thanks, master!” Hu Jinghai was deeply grateful, and he gave Qin Huai three loud kowtows.

Qin Huai also accepted it with peace of mind. Then, he accompanied Hu Jinghai and waited for a while.

Very quickly, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard.

Shua, shua, shua.

In the blink of an eye, a group of people surrounded Qin Huai with long knives in hand.

The leader, a middle-aged man with bound hair, stared at Qin Huai with a murderous look. “Young Master, are you alright?”

When Hu Jinghai saw who it was, his entire body relaxed. “Oh, it’s Commander Sun. I’m fine. Put down the knife and don’t point it at my master!” he quickly added in a stern voice.

“Your master?” Commander Sun was confused.

“It was Master who saved me. Otherwise, I would have been dead by now…” As Hu Jinghai explained the sequence of events, Commander Sun and the others immediately knelt down on one knee before Qin Huai.

“Many thanks, Little Brother Qin… Grandmaster Qin has come to my rescue!”

...

“Sun Tong will definitely remember Grandmaster’s kindness in his heart!”

Sun Tongyi and the others expressed their gratitude with solemn expressions. They were also amazed. They didn’t expect that Qin Huai, a genius youth who had only risen to fame in Pingnan City a few months ago, would be so arrogant.

He had already killed two fourth refinement martial artists in a two-against-one fight! Hence, they became even more respectful to Qin Huai.

Qin Huai hadn’t finished sweeping the mountain yet, so when he saw Sun Tong and the others, he parted ways with Hu Jinghai and his group.

…

The lights were bright at the city lord’s mansion.

Hu Guanpan buried his head in the transfer reports and the clear map of Pingnan City in the study.

His hair was black and white, his body was slender, and he had two walnuts in his left hand.

Bang! Bang!

The gate of the city lord’s mansion was pushed open by Sun Tong.

“You found him?” Hu Guanpan only raised his eyes and continued to study the map.

...

Sun Tong was used to the city lord’s attitude, so he explained his search for Hu Jinghai in full detail.

“He’s in the third refinement realm, and he killed two fourth refinement martial artists of the Sacred Heart sect?” Hu Guanpan muttered to himself after hearing this.

He was neither Hu Jinghai nor Sun Tong, and he had a deep understanding of the Changshan Dojo.

The master of the Changshan Dojo was the best poison master in Pingnan City. He had been the top in Pingnan for decades. For Qin Huai to be able to achieve such a battle result, this poison was definitely a heavenly contribution.

And that dojo master’s contribution naturally couldn’t go unnoticed. Even the young Sun Yuanshan might not have such a record.

Qin Huai must have inherited Sun Yuanshan’s skills. And it was very likely that he had surpassed his master.

“Jinghai’s talent isn’t good enough. He might as well learn poison from this Grandmaster Qin. It’ll give him some ability to protect himself,” Hu Guanpan muttered to himself for a moment.

“Prepare a master’s acknowledgment gift… Let’s just keep it for now. There will be plenty of opportunities to make up for it in the future. After all, those of the poison path have never liked to show off.”
