Ch 38: Humbly Seeking Guidance
“No!”
Seeing this, Chen Che’s face turned pale instantly. He really didn’t expect his Grey Wolf to be so vulnerable in front of Diting!
His eyes were filled with horror, and he shivered all over. This was not the result he wanted, and he couldn’t accept this cruel reality.
“Sir! Save me!”
Chen Che didn’t care about his dignity at this moment. He stumbled and crawled to the Man in Black’s feet, tightly grabbing his robe with both hands, his voice full of despair.
However, the Man in Black seemed not to see him, standing still in place. His eyes were indifferent and deep, as if watching an insignificant farce.
“You…”
Chen Che widened his eyes, looking at the Man in Black in disbelief. He didn’t expect that at this critical moment of life and death, he would be abandoned by his backer!
“Heh, with your strength, you are worthy of joining the ‘God Generals Society’?”
The Man in Black looked at Chen Che with a cold and cruel tone, his eyes full of ridicule and disdain.
Chen Che was struck by lightning when he heard this, and he stood there blankly. He finally understood that he was just a pawn from beginning to end, a pawn used to test Chu Qiu’s strength.
“No! I’m not reconciled! I’m not willing to die like this!”
Chen Che shouted desperately, his voice full of unwillingness. The past scenes flashed before his eyes, and he felt like a complete idiot.
As Diting’s roar sounded again, a huge Netherworld Claw suddenly appeared in the air, grabbing towards Chen Che with endless death aura!
The Netherworld Claw easily penetrated his chest, lifting him high. Blood gushed out like a fountain, staining his clothes red and his eyes red. His life came to an end at this moment.
“Puchi!”
Chen Che spat out blood. He couldn’t believe until his death that he would end up like this.
His corpse fell down with blank eyes, limp on the ground like a broken rag doll.
“Tch! It’s better to be alive than dead. Don’t act cool if you have nothing to do!”
Chu Qiu looked at the dead Chen Che and spat in respect! However, as soon as he finished speaking, he noticed something was wrong.
The Man in Black had not made a move from beginning to end, and now he had disappeared. This sudden change made the alarm bells ring in his heart.
“Not good! After years of hunting geese, I was finally pecked in the eye by a goose!”
Chu Qiu didn’t expect this Man in Black to be so cunning. He killed Chen Che, and the people from the “God Generals” were also at the scene.
In summary, it is inevitable that there is suspicion of colluding with internal enemies and murdering Heaven’s Chosen. Once discovered, he would have to shed a layer of skin even if he didn’t die.
What Chu Qiu likes to do is be a “dead ghost,” that delicate panting can make his little universe explode. As for scapegoats, let others be it.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t care about so much anymore. He had to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, and turned to run towards the City Gate!
What Chu Qiu didn’t expect was that not long after he left, a Monk quietly appeared, a deep light flashing in his eyes.
He picked up the corpse on the ground, his fingers moved slightly, and power spread out, instantly erasing all traces of the fight.
“Handsome guy, wanna play? You’ll be so tired you’ll spit up milk, and I’ll lose my voice.”
Beside the City Gate, a few delicate moans came from a corner room. The pink door curtain and flashing neon lights added a bit of temptation.
However, the single-minded Chu Qiu was completely immersed in his own world, missing the other scenery behind the door curtain.
“Yo ho! Just you wait and see if I ride you crazy!”
After hearing this, several passing men were eager to try, as if drawn by an invisible force, they couldn’t help but speed up their pace and rushed in like lightning.
“Daddy’s daddy is called grandpa…”
Inside the room, as coins were inserted, a familiar melody rang out, simple and warm.
Several people sat on the rocking car like fools, swaying with the rhythm of the music, looking at each other with disgust, and wanted to shout: Wife, come and see the idiots!
️ Chu Qiu, who had calmed down, appeared at the school gate on time, just as the school bell rang melodiously. ️
A group of young boys and girls, like little birds just released from their cages, poured out of the school gate with joy, and the breath of youth came to their faces.
Chu Qiu’s eyes shuttled through the crowd, especially those girls wearing mini-skirts. He couldn’t help but want to remind them: “Don’t wear skirts when you go out in the summer, it’s easy to be flirted with. The weather is good, but the wind may not be serious.”
At this moment, Xia Mo stood out from the crowd, like a bright pearl, and saw Chu Qiu who came to pick her up at a glance.
A bright smile suddenly bloomed on her face, and she trotted forward, naturally taking Chu Qiu’s arm.
Then she affectionately rubbed her forehead lightly against his chest and asked, raising her head, “Brother, what delicious food are we having for dinner?”
Chu Qiu lovingly touched Xia Mo’s head, thinking to himself, why not celebrate his upgrade to Bronze Perfection and Diting reaching Tenth Rank by having a feast.
What’s more, he also successfully killed Chen Che. Although he didn’t take down Li Chuan, this record is enough, what more could he want.
“Let’s go to ‘Juying Pavilion’ again, and let my little glutton eat her fill!”
His words were full of doting, and he felt the coins in his wallet jumping happily.
“It’s so expensive there, and we just ate there. I still like what my brother makes.”
️ Xia Mo shook her head. She knew very well that earning money was like catching ghosts, and spending money was like running water. Although her brother had some savings, the road ahead was still very long. ️
At this moment, Xiao Ya walked out of the school gate slowly, her steps light and elegant, like a sailboat swaying in the sea breeze, wave after wave.
Chu Qiu immediately felt as if he had seen the vast sea, and his mood became fluctuating.
Seeing them standing there, Xiao Ya naturally walked over with a faint smile on her face and asked, “Where are you planning to go for dinner?”
Chu Qiu was full of question marks: “How do you know we’re going to eat?”
A trace of surprise flashed in Xiao Ya’s eyes, then she pointed to the sun and raised the car keys in her hand: “You can tell by the time, this is the time to eat.”
Looking at the trees passing by on both sides of the road, Chu Qiu thought of his confrontation with Li Chuan, and a trace of ripples appeared in his heart: “Mentor Xiao Ya, have you heard of the name Li Chuan?”
He asked tentatively. With the strength and methods Li Chuan showed, he was by no means an unknown person.
Xiao Ya frowned slightly, quickly flipping through the fragments of memories in her mind, and shook her head helplessly: “I am not familiar with this name.”
Chu Qiu was not disappointed, and instead continued to ask: “Then Mentor Xiao Ya, do you know where I can buy a life-saving Skill Book?”
️ Hearing this, Xiao Ya’s mouth curled into a wry smile: “These kinds of precious Skill Books are usually in the hands of the State or families with deep foundations. It is impossible for them to appear in a small place like Yu City.” ️
Although Chu Qiu was a little disappointed after hearing this, he did not give up and continued to ask: “Then what about healing skills or something similar? There should always be a way to obtain them, right?”
Xiao Ya sighed and explained: “Healing skills are also rare. Once people who awaken these skills are discovered, they will be regarded as strategic resources by the State. As for Skill Books, they are mostly in the hands of large families, used to cultivate their own Heaven’s Chosen children. Ordinary people have no chance to see them at all.”
Chu Qiu was not reconciled and retreated to the next best thing, and asked again: “Then what about Teleportation Scrolls? Is there no way to obtain them?”
“There are three ways to obtain Teleportation Scrolls. One is to make great contributions to the State and be given as a reward; the second is that when the peerless Heaven’s Chosen in the big families go out to practice, the family will temporarily bestow them; and the third is that some large auction houses will auction them from time to time, but the price is not cheap.”
Xiao Ya looked at Chu Qiu with a bit of doubt in her eyes: “Are you in trouble because you suddenly asked about these things?”
Chu Qiu did not hide anything and told the whole story of the battle with Li Chuan in detail.
