82 The Burning Secret Manual
“There’s something very strange about this thing!” Qi Yangbing hesitated for a moment, but he still picked it up and looked through it again.
When he got a closer look, his face turned red, and he suppressed his breath. “This item… It’s very effective. When I hold it, the circulation of the long breath technique becomes smoother. If this secret manual can be used in the right way…”
Pa!
Qin Huai quickly snatched the secret manual and interrupted Qi Yangbing. “Senior Brother, your heart is in a mess!”
“Hiss…” Qi Yangbing couldn’t help but take a deep breath, and the redness on his cheeks faded. “The Sacred Heart sect is truly terrifying…”
He couldn’t help but be shocked. However, he turned around and felt that it was a loss. “Junior Brother, why don’t we take this back and let Master decide what to do with it?”
Without waiting for Qin Huai’s reply, a voice suddenly came from the crowd.
“Has it ended?”
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice.
“Senior Brother Reihom!” The people from the Thunderbolt Dojo greeted him respectfully.
Reihom’s powerful muscles were still exposed to the air, and he was carrying a weapon made of pure iron on his shoulder. The shaft was like a long spear, and the spearhead was replaced by a lump of iron.
Clearly, Reihom had heard the news while he was training and had come. He looked at the bloody secret manual in Qin Huai’s hand and said, “You’re just an evil small fry. How boring… You’ll never become strong by relying on these things.”
Bai Yusheng looked at Reihom’s back and listened to his words in silence. However, his hands were clenched so tightly that his nails had dug into his flesh.
Reihom stared at Qin Huai, but the latter only looked at him. “However, you can keep it. You might be able to give me some fun in the grand martial arts competition.”
On the Changshan Dojo side, the group of senior disciples didn’t dare to refute a single word. There was no other reason. The shadow that this man had cast on them all these years was too heavy.
In the hearts of the vast majority of the older generation, Reihom was an existence that the younger generation couldn’t defeat.
However, there were also exceptions. Liu Xing, a lean man with a foreign accent, said in a loud and clear voice, “We don’t just have Senior Brother Qin. Our Senior Brother Qi is even stronger! When the time comes for the grand martial competition, you better pray that you can keep the third place!”
He was the righteous thief that Qin Huai and Qi Yangbing had met on their way to the encampment to deliver the armor for the first time. He was planning to use the armor to stir up trouble and plot against the world.
“Qi Yangbing? In a life-and-death battle, he will definitely die within ten moves.” Reihom didn’t even look at Qi Yangbing. His voice was firm, as if he was stating a fact.
Qin Huai just looked at Reihom in silence. He threw a piece of flint in his hand and then kicked with the tip of his foot.
Hu!
The flame slowly rose above the dried leaves. In just a short while, it rose several inches higher in the cold wind.
Then, Qin Huai squatted down. He placed the long breath technique manual on the fire and said, “Senior Brother, even with your Dao heart, you can’t resist the temptation of this thing. How can the other brothers and sisters resist it? If we keep this, there will definitely be a second, third, or even more Li Bowu. If you think about it, it’ll be a big disaster for the Changshan Dojo.”
Qin Huai’s voice was firm. The main reason why he could resist the temptation of the Sacred Heart sect’s secret technique was because of his cheat.
Compared to the Sacred Heart sect’s technique, he could cut leeks, but he could also cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. He didn’t need to worry about falling into the evil path.
He didn’t know how many times stronger it was, but naturally, he wouldn’t be so greedy.
A fierce flame burned the unique secret manual forged by the Sacred Heart sect, and the progress was rapid. There was nothing special about the scroll itself, but the ‘ink’ used to write the technique was very strange.
The onlookers looked at the burning secret manual with heartache in their eyes, especially Bai Yusheng. His heart seemed to be dancing wildly with the beating flames.
That lord had repeatedly exhorted that even if the person died, he must keep the cultivation method. The value of this cultivation method was more valuable than a hundred of his and Li Bowu’s lives combined…
But now…
This Qin Huai had actually burned the cultivation technique?
“Not bad. This decisiveness and determination are indeed worthy of my expectations.” Reihom glanced at the blazing technique, then left without even looking back.
“That guy is too arrogant!” Liu Xing was still indignant, but Qi Yangbing reached out to stop him.
“It’s true that Junior Brother is more decisive. I’ve been tricked!” Qi Yangbing looked at the burnt remains and sighed.
Meanwhile, a dark purple and an orange experience orb appeared in the fire. Qin Huai glanced at them, and the two experience orbs that dropped silently merged with his body.
“Ding! You have collected a [Long Breath Technique Essence (Dark Purple) ], [Long Breath Technique] Experience +5,000!”
“Ding! You have collected a [Skill Essence (Orange)], and you can allocate experience points: 10,000!”
As soon as the secret manual was out, there was no need to investigate whether Li Bowu had fallen into the Sacred Heart cult. The evidence was in front of him.
Once a person died, the secret manual would also be burned.
After some time, the people on both sides immediately lost interest.
“Let’s go. This matter should be settled for now. Even if our great genius Qin killed the wrong person, it should be enough to intimidate that person for a while. We can be at ease for a while.” Bai Yusheng waved his hand.
He returned triumphantly with his fellow disciples like a victor.
“Senior Brother, you’re so smart. You made the Changshan disciples kill each other with just a few words. We’ve lost a genius.”
“That’s why Senior Brother Bai is our young master. He has both wisdom and courage!”
