Chapter 29: Chapter 29 Dostic Affairs
Shi Hao looked at the man in black and said indifferently, “Who sent you?”
For such a minor character, he couldn’t even be bothered to ask his identity.
The man in black inexplicably suffered ten thousand points of damage and felt an even sharper pain in his chest.
He gritted his teeth, “I won’t tell.”
Shi Hao smiled, “Good, I just happen to need a test subject to try out my Seven Orifices Heart-Lock Finger.”
This was a tornting technique, naturally also a mory of Yuan Chengmie, very effective. There were very few people in the world who could withstand it—it definitely required an iron will.
He started experinting on the man in black, but after only three fingers, the man in black was weeping bitterly and confessed everything.
“I’ll talk! I’ll talk!” the man in black scread, “It was the City Lord’s wife who sent to kill you!”
Shi Hao was astounded. What grudge did he have against the City Lord’s wife?
He hadn’t even t her before.
“Why?” Shi Hao asked.
“I’m not too sure,” said the man in black, but seeing Shi Hao raise his hand again, he quickly said, “I guess! I guess! It’s because you previously saved the City Lord’s son.”
What?
Wait, shouldn’t he be thanked for saving soone?
Are people nowadays so strange that they send assassins to express their gratitude?
The man in black, having opened up, had nothing to hide and continued to reveal, “The young master is not born of the City Lord’s wife, and she has no children of her own, so—”
Shi Hao understood, “So, the person who tried to assassinate the City Lord’s son should also be you, right?”
It was a very clichéd jealousy drama, only because Shi Hao had inadvertently saved the City Lord’s son, he had caught the City Lord’s wife’s attention.
“Heh, really petty!” Shi Hao shook his head.
Why had the assassin co only now?
Because previously Shi Hao was either in the academy or in the mountains, completely untraceable. Now that he had moved out, it was only the third day, and the assassin had shown up.
Upon further inquiry, Shi Hao unexpectedly learned that the City Lord’s wife was surnad Shi, nad Shi Jingbai, one of the prominent families of the Imperial Capital, a mber of the Shi Family!
He imdiately thought of his foster father’s death.
“Have you ever killed a man nad Shi Tianyang?” he suddenly asked.
The man in black’s pupils dilated sharply, then he quickly shook his head, “No!”
“Not honest!” Shi Hao used the Seven Orifices Heart-Lock Finger again.
“Ah!” the man in black scread in agony, unable to endure even for a few heartbeats, hastily saying, “I have! I have! It was the lady who ordered to do it, made it look like an accident, I was just following orders!”
Bang!
Shi Hao threw a punch, and the man in black was instantly silenced, his life extinguished.
As expected!
His eyes emitted a fierce light, his foster father had indeed been killed by the Shi Family.
Perhaps, Shi Jingbai being married off here might have even been at the behest of Shi Fengyun, intended to watch over Shi Tianyang, to see if he had a chance of making a coback.
But sohow, Shi Fengyun changed his mind, had Shi Jingbai deploy an assassin, killed Shi Tianyang, and made it look like an accident.
Shi, Feng, Yun!
Shi Hao clenched his fists tightly, his whole body emanating a chilling aura.
“Stone—I, damn!” Fatty walked out, suddenly seeing a man in black lying on the ground, his head clearly crushed, naturally got a fright.
Shi Hao smiled, “Don’t worry about him, I’ll teach you the Tyrant Body Technique!”
“Oh, oh,” Liu Mang’s mouth twitched, not that he lacked courage, but with a corpse lying beside them, he couldn’t just ignore it.
However, once Shi Hao began teaching him, he imrsed himself so deeply in learning that he indeed ignored the corpse.
Because practicing the Tyrant Body Technique was too painful, it could make one forget everything else.
But Fatso’s perseverance was beyond Shi Hao’s expectations, although he sweated profusely and his entire body fat trembled, he stubbornly persevered.
After three cycles of the Tyrant Body Technique, Fatso sat down on the ground, panting heavily.
“Stone, I think I’ve lost a few pounds!” Fatso said, surprised and delighted, after catching his breath.
Shi Hao looked at the ground; the sweat this guy had shed made it look like it had rained, it certainly burned a lot of fat, how could he not lose weight?
“I’ll give you so dicinal Bath Bags, don’t forget to continue training when you get back.”
“Don’t contact for the next few days, to avoid dragging you down with .”
Fatso nodded and didn’t impulsively insist on sharing Shi Hao’s burdens.
In fact, with his current strength, he would only hold Shi Hao back.
But he secretly vowed to train desperately to beco a brother who could face dangers together with Shi Hao.
“Okay!” he nodded.
Fatso took the dicinal Bath Bags and went ho.
Shi Hao didn’t bother with the corpse, planning to have soone from Hailing Martial Sect handle it tomorrow.
The next day, Shi Hao first took a dicinal bath, practiced the Tyrant Body Technique, and then cultivated the Nine Revolutions Sky-Plundering Scripture.
—He tried to concentrate all his training into one session.
This ti, since his Soul Force hadn’t fully recovered, Shi Hao only managed to advance the cultivation technique to the seventh revolution, but he reached his limit at the second revolution.
As before, Shi Hao easily broke through the limit, and imdiately, his strength began to rise rapidly.
Twenty-seven thousand pounds of force.
Accordingly, Shi Hao only increased his strength by three thousand pounds, after all, he had only plundered the energy of the heavens and earth seven tis.
However, after this session of cultivation, Shi Hao had advanced to a Primary Level martial master, while his actual strength was at the level of a high-level martial master.
“Huh?”
Shi Hao swung his fist and surprisingly found that the pores all over his body were emitting strength, as if forming a layer of film on his body.
“This is… forceful energy released outside!”
He was very surprised, as theoretically, only a martial master of Martial Sect could achieve energy release outside, which is also a hallmark of Martial Sect.
Releasing strength outward was incredibly practical.
A punch thrown was like wearing Fist Wraps, not only enhancing the destructive power but also providing excellent protection; hence, if you see soone bare-handedly clashing with weapons, you can be sure that person is a martial master of Martial Sect.
It was the sa with defense; the forceful energy densely covered the body, providing substantial buffering.
Shi Hao, having cultivated the Tyrant Body Technique, already had a toughness far beyond ordinary people; now, with the addition of forceful energy protection, he could even withstand a burst of shots from a Cloud-Piercing Crossbow!
Of course, soft organs like the eyes still had to be protected; the Tyrant Body Technique couldn’t reach such areas.
Despite his surprise, Shi Hao couldn’t help but wonder why he, clearly not a Martial Sect, could achieve energy release outside?
Could it be because of the Nine Revolutions Sky-Plundering Scripture?
He smiled, with this, his strength had improved further, making him even less apprehensive.
Shi Hao headed to the academy, ready to register for the Imperial Capital Academy’s competition to fight for qualification.
Given that he had killed Yang Chao and his son yesterday, a major showdown was certainly waiting for him today; this was one of the reasons why Shi Hao had scheduled his cultivation of the Nine Revolutions Sky-Plundering Scripture for the morning.
Increasing his strength a bit more, definitely couldn’t go wrong.
