The Wedding Dress Magic Chapter 10

"What?!"

Thomas Gu's face was filled with shock.

His eyes were wide open.

The knife he had just swung down with all his strength was still two feet away from the back of Ethan Lin's neck, but it was as if it was firmly grasped by an invisible big hand.

No matter how hard he tried.

Even the Embroidered Spring Sword could not cut down even an inch.

"Gang... Gang Qi... protect the body?!!"

A feeling of shock like a wave instantly spread throughout my body.

Thomas Gu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

It's so cold!

That face was filled with an expression of fear that was beyond description.

The hand holding the knife was shaking.

He knew very well what it meant to have the Qi protecting the body.

The energy protects the body!

The energy is as solid as a wall!

This is a characteristic only possessed by grandmasters.

"Grand...Grand...Grandmaster..."

Thomas Gu looked at Ethan Lin stutteringly.

An unprecedented feeling of fear kept rising from within my body.

He simply couldn't believe it.

Ethan Lin, the inheritor of a small flag who had just joined the Jinyiwei, was actually a great master who was rare in the world.

And I am just a first-rate warrior.

He actually used a knife on the Grand Master? !

It's over! It's over!

I am done for!!

Ethan Lin slowly raised his head, his eyes sharp and cold: "You didn't search me yourself, but asked me to search you. I knew you had no good intentions. You really wanted to take the opportunity to kill me and take all the credit."

Thomas Gu shivered: "I...I..."

boom!!

The protective energy of the body vibrated.

Thomas Gu flew backwards instantly.

With a clang sound.

Ethan Lin casually slapped the Embroidered Spring Knife in Victor Qiu's hand.

The blade flew out immediately.

When Thomas Gu was knocked flying ten feet away, the Xiuchun Knife that was chasing him pierced his throat directly and nailed Thomas Gu to the tree trunk.

Kill with one blow!

Neat and simple!

"Sure enough, killing warriors below the Xiantian realm does not earn any martial arts points at all."

Ethan Lin murmured.

Soon, he found a sheepskin map, an iron key, half a martial arts manual, some silver, and the damaged gold-thread soft armor on Victor Qiu's body.

"Hmm? This seems to be only part of the complete map."

Ethan Lin was slightly surprised.

The map is not complete.

He stared at the map carefully, memorizing the entire map in his mind.

Fortunately, I have a good memory, although not to the extent of photographic memory.

But it's not that different.

After one stick of incense.

Ethan Lin has already memorized all the details in this incomplete map.

Then he opened the half of the martial arts secret book again.

"It looks like the second half of the book, it should be a secret manual of Qinggong, and it's quite profound. It's a pity that without the first half, I can't practice it at all, and even the Jinyi point-adding system has no response.

"Never mind, just keep it for now."

After looking at other DongXZ treasure maps, I know for sure that they cannot be kept privately.

Among the others, only the gold-thread soft armor is somewhat useful, but it has little effect on Ethan Lin.

And it's already broken.

Just repairing it is a hassle.

never mind.

Except for that half of the secret book, hand over all the others.

Ethan Lin felt that this half of the secret book should not be simple.

So it seems useless now.

But he didn't plan to hand it over.

No longer stay.

Ethan Lin hid the half of the martial arts secret book in his arms, and rushed towards Taojia Village with Victor Qiu’s head.

Wait until he arrives.

Fei Yingwu suffered some minor injuries, but he finally killed Zhao Heilong successfully, and looked quite proud of himself.

The remaining bandits were leaderless.

The army was completely routed.

In a blink of an eye, more than half of them were killed.

Those who tried to escape were either killed or captured alive by the Jinyiwei guarding the entrances and exits.

Only a few escaped.

Fei Yingwu frowned slightly: "Why are you the only one back?"

Ethan Lin took away Victor Qiu's head, the treasure map, the key, the silver, and the broken gold-thread soft armor.

"My Lord, General Gu and I chased him to the woods outside the village and fought with Victor Qiu for hundreds of rounds. Victor Qiu seemed to have suffered internal injuries, but he was still very fierce. General Gu and he died together in order to capture and kill this thief.

"If General Gu had not delayed Victor Qiu with his death, I would never have had the chance to chop off Victor Qiu's head and seize a treasure map, a key, and 131 taels and 7 coins of silver.

"The credit for capturing and killing Victor Qiu should all go to General Gu."

Ethan Lin has already thought of an excuse.

He actually wanted to say that Thomas Gu tried to launch a sneak attack on him but failed and was killed by him instead.

but.

Thomas Gu was dead, and he couldn't produce any evidence to prove that Thomas Gu had attacked him.

Instead, he would confess the fact that he murdered Thomas Gu.

Killing colleagues.

This is a capital crime.

Even if Ethan Lin has the cultivation level of a grandmaster.

He will also inevitably be wanted and hunted down by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.

because!

Such behavior is not as simple as just killing a general.

Instead, it challenged the majesty of the royal family.

It broke the rules set by the royal family.

So what if he is a great master with a promising future?

Dare to challenge the royal majesty.

It's a death penalty!

Ethan Lin has decided that before he has stronger strength, it is necessary to hide his cultivation level and not reveal all his cards.

after all!

This is a very dangerous world of martial arts. If your skills are not strong enough, you can't cover the sky with one hand. You have to beware of other people's sneak attacks.

The Northern Pacification Division is a microcosm of this great martial arts world.

A small world!

If you are not careful, you may die at the hands of "your own people".

not to mention.

For the rank of Jinyiwei, cultivation is only one of the hard conditions. Merits, ability to do things, interpersonal relationships, etc. all need to be evaluated comprehensively to determine whether a person can be promoted.

Exposing his cultivation level would not allow him to climb up directly.

Instead, it will easily arouse the jealousy of some villains, and even make those villains secretly target him.

If it is an open targeting.

With the cultivation level of a grandmaster, it is relatively easy to deal with.

But it can be targeted secretly.

It’s not so easy to defend.

This is such a thankless job.

There is no need to do it.

When there is an opportunity to be promoted, I will show more of my abilities.

The Jinyiwei around were all staring in amazement.

"Is that Victor Qiu's head?!"

"He and General Gu teamed up to kill a Xiantian realm expert?!"

"Is the new Oliver so powerful?"

"Of course he is strong. When we attacked together just now, I felt it was difficult to deal with two bandits, but he killed one by one with his sword, and killed more than a dozen in a blink of an eye."

"Hiss... So scary?!"

"Yes! He saved me!"

"This flag chief looks so young, but his Kung Fu has reached such a terrifying level?"

"Look over there, those that were cut in two by a single blow, they were all his work."

"I was wondering who did it, and it turns out he was the one who killed it, so awesome!"

Looking at Ethan Lin, these Jinyiwei either had expressions of sudden shock or envy and admiration on their faces.

Fei Yingwu also stared at Ethan Lin.

He was secretly shocked that Ethan Lin brought back Victor Qiu's head. He originally thought that Ethan Lin secretly killed Thomas Gu in order to take all the credit.

But...

However, Ethan Lin was willing to give all the credit to Thomas Gu.

This made the idea in his mind invalid.

If we talk about personal grudges.

Not really.

After all, Thomas Gu only increased the difficulty of the assessment, and gave one hundred taels of silver as a reward afterwards. There was nothing wrong with his approach, and it was far from a life-and-death situation.

Furthermore.

Ethan Lin and Thomas Gu were both only first-rate warriors. It was not easy to kill a master of the Innate Realm, even if, as Ethan Lin said, Victor Qiu seemed to have internal injuries.

The price was one's life.

That makes sense.

More importantly, Ethan Lin brought back Yan Nantian’s treasure map.

With this.

What does it matter if we sacrifice one Thomas Gu?

and.

Fei Yingwu noticed the key that Ethan Lin presented to him.

"You did a great job." Fei Yingwu praised, and then ordered, "Come here, find all the dirty silver that Victor Qiu hid in the village."

Not long after, several large boxes of silver were found.

There is also a special locked wooden box.

This box is made of special materials and closing mechanism.

If you use brute force to break it open, it will directly damage the things inside.

Fei Yingwu handed the key to one of the Tiqi.

Let it open.

really!

Just plug it in and it turns on.

Ethan Lin handed over all the keys, which made Fei Yingwu believe what he had said before even more.

"My Lord, please look!"

The Tiqi who was in charge of opening the box presented a secret book in both hands.

"Step on the moon and leave a fragrance!!"

Fei Yingwu's eyes suddenly narrowed.

"Is this... the peerless light skill that has been lost for over a hundred years, Stepping on the Moon and Leaving Fragrance?!"

Ethan Lin's heart moved when he heard this.

Leaving fragrance on the moon?

This sounds familiar.

Stepping on the moon and leaving fragrance... Stepping on the moon and leaving fragrance... Isn't this a description of the thief Chu Liuxiang?

Although the original novel does not mention what the light skill that Chu Liuxiang learned is called.

But "stepping on the moon and leaving fragrance" is used to describe Chu Liuxiang.

etc!

If Stepping on the Moon and Leaving Fragrance is really Chu Liuxiang's light skill.

That means.

Chu Liuxiang also existed in Ancient Dynasties.

Plus Yan Nantian.

What kind of world is this?

besides.

Fei Yingwu just said that this light skill has been lost for more than a hundred years, and the last time Yan Nantian appeared was also more than a hundred years ago.

This world that I traveled through.

Could it be a...

The chaotic martial arts world? ?

Just when Ethan Lin was thinking about this, Fei Yingwu made another move. He was seen flipping the secret book in his hand from left to right.

"Huh? Why only half?!"

Ethan Lin was shocked when he heard this.

half?

This box only contains half of the secret book of Stepping on the Moon and Leaving the Fragrance. Could it be that the other half is the one that I searched from Victor Qiu?

Fei Yingwu looked towards Ethan Lin.

"Ethan Lin, did you find the other half of the secret book from Victor Qiu?"

Ethan Lin clasped his hands and said, "No, sir."

Even if I have it, I can’t give it to you!

Fei Yingwu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Really?"
