Chapter 6, Trade, Visitors from Nanyufu

He does not understand whether he offended the heavens in his previous life, as he started with only twelve hours of life remaining. After enduring countless hardships and exhausting his brain, he obtained a supernatural ability.

the hour of the pig

This is a joyous occasion, and naturally, one cannot help but speak of it

This is Xu Qingxiao's scheme

Immediately approach the injured officer and check his breathing

Perhaps they were truly intimidated, but Xu Qingxiao believed it was more because the other party did not wish to linger any longer. After all, they had already made their way to the county office's document storage; if they delayed any further, the officials within the yamen would indeed arrive.

He entered the document storage, removed the candle, and then ignited all the files within the document storage, including the wooden box

The voice of Constable Chen also rose, filled with shock in his words

But he did not waste any time; instead, he looked at the other person and said

Xu Qingxiao stared blankly at the person in front of him

Xu Qingxiao took a step forward, appearing very confident

The first time he practiced the unusual technique, he condensed the killing intent of the Golden Crow. If it were not for the appearance of the golden finger, he would likely have already died

A middle-aged man stood before Xu Qingxiao with an extremely cold demeanor. The man was dressed in black linen, his face was exceedingly gaunt, and his body emanated a terrifying chill.

You are still alive?

As the sound emerged, Xu Qingxiao also ceased to hold on.

As the sound rang out, the door was instantly opened.

"Recovered? How is that possible? Qingxiao was afflicted by the energy of the underworld, how could he have recovered so well?"

Just now, they heard some noise, but they were too afraid to come over

As the door was shattered

Brother Chen, what has happened? Am I about to die? Why do I feel so weak all over?

A cold gaze, a body covered in frost, resembling a strange figure

Upon careful observation, the man was moved in an instant

A difference of two grades is equivalent to the width of two chasms

In a rapid reading session, Xu Qingxiao recorded all the content of the foreign techniques in the shortest time possible, and then placed it on the fire rack to burn until it turned to ashes, only then feeling satisfied

Xu Qingxiao handed over the Golden Crow Body Refinement Technique to the other party

It was only when Constable Chen hurried back with his men that they dared to come.

After the guests left, Xu Qingxiao did not remain idle

A person who has just entered the industry

This is a rhythm that will lead to one's own demise

As a series of sounds echoed, Xu Qingxiao's consciousness gradually returned

The black dome resembles ink

At this moment, Xu Qingxiao felt a bit dizzy, but was still able to make some sounds

The latter let out a cold laugh, his gaze filled with disdain

Finally, a wooden box was found on the beam, followed by wild laughter and joy. Then, after opening the box, he took out a book. He did not know what was happening, but after reading the book, he was enveloped in warmth, and his body shimmered with golden light

As the great fire blazed intensely, Xu Qingxiao stepped out of the document storage room and then struck a hard blow beside his heart.

I couldn't control my strength and truly caused an injury

This is done to clear all suspicions; the entire county office is aware of the fact that one has been afflicted by dark energy. Who would believe that one could recover without reason?

Indeed, as Xu Qingxiao took a step forward, a hint of suspicion flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes

Fainted on the spot

When the man spoke, he first glanced at Xu Qingxiao and felt that she looked somewhat familiar. After a moment's thought, he recalled who Xu Qingxiao was

As this sound emerged

Xu Qingxiao felt dizzy, but before losing consciousness, he did hear the voice of Constable Chen

He is somewhat curious, after all, it is quite incredible that he has been able to endure until now after being struck by his dark chill.

Xu Qingxiao's words were meticulously crafted, and what he intended to convey to everyone was that the fugitive had mastered the Golden Crow Body Refinement Technique. Subsequently, he executed the Supreme Yang Palm Technique, which, although injuring his own internal organs, inadvertently expelled the cold poison from his body.

Take it

Deceased

Impulsiveness is tantamount to seeking death

"Go ahead, this is my extraordinary skill. Give me your extraordinary skill, and I will leave immediately"

The powerful force caused Xu Qingxiao's internal organs to tremble, and his vital energy surged, resulting in a mouthful of bright red blood being spat out, staining his collar.

Nanyufu

The pace is quick, and Xu Qingxiao can understand it, but isn't this a bit too fast

His mind was even more muddled, making Xu Qingxiao feel somewhat mentally impaired

I am not very clear about the remaining matters, Brother Chen, what exactly is going on

Constable Chen shook his head and then inquired about what had happened

There is only this possibility, so he took the initiative to speak up, asking Xu Qingxiao to hand over the Zhi Yang Yi Shu, in exchange for sparing him.

Xu Qingxiao let out a heavy sigh

Xu Qingxiao still pretended to ask knowingly, feigning that the county magistrate had brought him miraculous medicine.

I can transfer my extraordinary skills to you, but it must be a fair exchange; you must give me your extraordinary skills in return

It is already so tense and thrilling at the very beginning; one can only imagine how perilous it will be later. Henceforth, one must be cautious and steady, and certainly cannot be reckless.

Xu Qingxiao let out a powerful shout in the middle of the performance, simultaneously collapsing to the ground. This was done both to deliver a good performance and because the act had gone too far, as it truly hurt, resulting in a very genuine expression.

Dr. Zhao's voice was filled with astonishment, accompanied by a hint of joy

Is the cold gone? Brother Chen, is this true or false? Did the county magistrate find a miracle cure for me?

Before Chen the Constable could speak, several officers following him had already begun to speak

"Constable Chen, someone from Nanyu Prefecture has arrived. The county magistrate requests that you go there quickly"

At the same time, Xu Qingxiao opened the book on supernatural arts, which was still written in the characters of the Great Wei, inscribed with "Technique of Lunar Pulse"

If he were to advance one more rank, Xu Qingxiao even felt that he could kill someone across ranks. However, Xu Qingxiao did not dare to act rashly now, as the opponent was at least an eighth-rank martial artist in the Five Organs Realm.

A few figures immediately walked in, and at the forefront was Constable Chen. His eyes still carried a look of shock, but there was also great concern. Upon approaching, his first question was about Xu Qingxiao's health

This old man does not know, we can wait for Young Friend Qingxiao to wake up and ask.

This is the third time escaping from death

Just as Chen the constable was about to ask more questions, a sound of footsteps was heard

After self-harm, Xu Qingxiao began to act.

The sound emerged

Xu Qingxiao already possesses a vital force of utmost Yang within, specifically targeting the malevolent forces of Yin and cold.

When the time comes, there will be no way to escape.

Puff

Having narrowly escaped death twice, I now find myself face to face with the fugitive again

The expressions of everyone in the room changed dramatically.

The file was not thick, so it burned extremely quickly. In less than fifteen minutes, more than a dozen bookshelves were ignited, and the fire engulfed the entire document storage room

The sound outside the door was loud, yet it seemed somewhat faint to Xu Qingxiao.

Furthermore, do not entertain the thought of killing me. I have already cultivated the Yang Transformation Technique and comprehended the Yang Divine Power. Although I may not be able to kill you, I can certainly delay you for a while. By the time the officials arrive, even if you manage to escape, do not expect to leave the county alive

The county office is located less than several dozen meters away from the document storage room, but due to the fact that Officer Chen has dispatched many people away, only a few ordinary constables remain

The dark and cold energy within you has dissipated, and your vital energy is abundant, resembling a flame. You have cultivated the Supreme Yang technique and have even reached a certain level.

The middle-aged man has left

If it were not for scaring the other party, one might have also become a corpse

Document Repository

What happened? How could the whole house be stolen?

Document repository

Xu Qingxiao furrowed his brows; he did not rush to respond. Constable Chen was not a fool; on the contrary, he was quite clever, having served as a constable for several decades, and he possessed considerable investigative skills

Brother Chen, I only remember that while I was resting in the document storage, that fugitive suddenly came back and attacked again. I was half dead at the time, and he did not pay any attention to me, but was searching for something inside the document storage.

The appearance of this fugitive can be considered a fortuitous opportunity, providing Xu Qingxiao with a perfect excuse. However, beneath the establishment of this excuse, one must give oneself a slap, otherwise it cannot be justified.

Brother Chen

At this moment, how could Xu Qingxiao possibly hand over the Golden Crow Body Refinement Technique directly

Fortunately, as Xu Qingxiao circulated the vital energy and blood within his body, this icy sensation was instantly dispelled

"Qingxiao, I ask you, what happened in the document archive? How did you faint on the ground?"

"Hand over the foreign techniques to me, and I can spare your life."

A strange, indescribable feeling arose within Xu Qingxiao as he glanced once more at the other person, who had also perished

After receiving the Golden Crow Tempering Technique, the latter simply flipped it open, took a glance, and then turned to leave

No

You may give it a try

As soon as the sadness began to spread, Xu Qingxiao's expression turned cold and stern

See who suffers a loss

He aims to obtain the other party's unique abilities, and then intimidate them to instill a sense of caution.

Fainting to death

The opponent is very strong; someone who can escape from the prison of Nanyu Prefecture is certainly not weak.

Is it just you?

Outside the document storage room

There is no way out; at this moment, one cannot show weakness. Showing weakness leads to certain death, while not showing weakness at least allows for the possibility of deceiving the situation. If nothing else, it buys some time. At worst, we die together, perishing in the same fate.

Qingxiao, you are truly fortunate this time; you are unharmed, and all the coldness within you has dissipated, allowing you to survive

It is truly a miracle that all the cold poison within Qingxiao's body has been eliminated. Although there is some damage to the internal organs, with a proper prescription and a few days of rest, he will be able to recover. This is indeed a manifestation of heaven's benevolence towards life.

There is no scheming, nor dare to scheme; the enemy is strong while I am weak. It is sufficient to intimidate them, as reckless displays of skill lead to a swift demise.

The night shrouds the sky

I originally intended to take him down with me while he was in such a strange state, but I did not expect him to react, strike me with a palm, and then set the entire document archive on fire before leaving

Furthermore, the chill emanating from him instilled a sense of fear in Xu Qingxiao

The fugitive has returned.

The fugitives from Nanyu Prefecture have arrived; they used to go to their deaths, which is why they are hesitating to come out from the county office.

Ping'an County

If one were to answer directly, it would instead reveal their true intentions, as this is not the typical first reaction of a normal person

Unfortunately, it is evident that Xu Qingxiao does not believe such words that are meant to deceive a three-year-old child

Xu Qingxiao opened his mouth and spoke the lies he had long prepared

At this moment, a great fire engulfed the document storage, with thick smoke billowing. At this moment, the officials from the county office finally arrived

Help!

Without any hesitation, he decisively threw a small booklet to Xu Qingxiao, not concerned that Xu Qingxiao might play tricks.

Compared to the cold aura previously emitted by Xu Qingxiao, the cold aura radiating from him directly caused the ground to begin freezing, indicating a significant difference between the two.

Come here, someone

Perhaps this is what it means for human life to be as insignificant as grass

Soon, a voice of a constable was heard outside the door

In just an instant, he deduced that Xu Qingxiao had cultivated the Supreme Yang Technique; otherwise, a mere constable, having been struck by his Yin Ming cold energy, would not only have survived but also advanced in rank

Thus, he pretended to ponder for a moment before finally speaking
