BXBX NOVEL Chapter 7
As for Luo Ya, her legs turned to jelly from the sudden turn of events, and she fell to the ground. She couldn’t even get up, let alone walk. Her whole body twitched, and cold sweat drenched her short robe and the ground.
One of the reasons was that she had been pampered since she was a child. More importantly, the fierce reputation of the Blackhawk Gang had been pressing on the heads of Pingnan City and the surrounding people for too long.
The Blackhawk Gang will seek revenge for the smallest grievance. They will target whoever kills their people like dogskin plaster, not to mention that he killed his nephew this time.”
“Senior Brother, it’s my fault.” Luo Ya’s face was pale.
“What’s the use of saying that now?” Qin Huai was calm. It didn’t matter if he killed such an evil person. He wanted to live a peaceful life, but it didn’t mean that he had to compromise and tolerate everything.
Just because he didn’t cause trouble didn’t mean he was afraid of trouble.
There were really evil people who bullied their superiors and forced them into a desperate situation. Qin Huai didn’t mind risking his life to let those evil people know that people who were born with Qi use it for the sake of survival. Otherwise, what was the point of living in this world?
Qin Huai grabbed Luo Ya with one hand and put her on his shoulder, taking big steps forward until they entered the city.
Once they reached the city, Luo Ya seemed to have found support and could walk on the ground. Walking into the apothecary, the two people’s steps couldn’t help but become much lighter.
However, she realized that the atmosphere in the medicine hall was not quite right.
Their master, Liu Changyue, and the others saw that Qin Huai and Luo Ya had returned safely, but there was no joy on their faces. All of them were silent, filling the atmosphere in the backyard with an invisible heaviness.
“Don’t mention this matter anymore.” Liu Changyue gathered everyone who knew the situation in the backyard and spoke concisely.
Qin Huai and Luo Ya’s safe return meant that all the members of the Blackhawk Gang had been killed. He had offended the powerful and vengeful Blackhawk Gang.
To the Liu family’s apothecary, it could be said to be a big hidden danger. Qin Huai was in big trouble!
“Qin Huai, you don’t have to escort anymore in the future. Let’s do the consultation in the lobby,” Liu Changyue ordered. He had also changed the way he addressed Qin Huai from ‘Huai’er’ to his full name.
His Senior Sister Liu Xiaomei, who had always cared for him, was now standing in the same place, not daring to look at him.
Qin Huai had an idea of what was going on, and his heart sank.
“For the time being, everyone in the apothecary is not allowed to go to the city and out of it!” Liu Changyue ordered everyone to lay low.
That night,?Qin Huai’s door was knocked open.
“Senior Brother Qin, it’s fine if you don’t have to escort me. I’ll always support you!” Luo Ya’s entire body was trembling. Obviously, she was still in shock after what had happened today. Yet, she still came to comfort Qin Huai.
“Although the blood and Qi soup is expensive, my family still has some money. It’s not a big problem for Senior Brother to cultivate.”
“Alright.” Qin Huai nodded and temporarily agreed.
He didn’t have a better idea now. He could only wait until his cultivation technique broke through level 50 and see if he had the chance to enter the second level of blood refinement.
Moreover, only the people in his apothecary knew that he had killed Black Wolf. There was no surveillance in this world. The so-called divination and deduction techniques, even if there were, would not be in this small Pingnan City.
This was because, according to Qin Huai’s observations, this world was obviously a world with a low-level martial world or a mid-level martial world. Although the killing power of cultivators was shocking, it was by no means to the extent of destroying the heavens and earth, reversing yin and yang.
“I’ll continue to escort them after the storm has passed.” Qin Huai was calm as he said this.
After his Qi cultivation had reached a profound level, it would not be too late for him to kill his way to the top of the mountain to get rid of this disaster for the apothecary.
These two days, he had been living off of his junior sister, and he had a clear conscience.
…
“Ding! You have collected a [ Nurturing Qi Essence (Green) ], [ Nurturing Qi ] Experience +17.”
“Ding! You have collected a [ Nurturing Qi Essence (Green) ], [ Nurturing Qi ] Experience +12.”
“Ding! You have collected a [ Nurturing Qi Essence (Green) ], [ Nurturing Qi ] Experience +29!”
Qin Huai was stunned when he saw the last notification. This was because this wasn’t his master Liu Changyue’s experience ball, but his junior Luo Ya’s.
“I didn’t expect Junior Sister to give me so much experience. Not only did I break through level 20, but I’ve even caught up with Master.” Qin Huai sighed.
It seemed that he had saved his junior sister’s life and caused Luo Ya’s trust and closeness to him to break through the limit.
Hu~
Qin Huai heaved a sigh of relief as he felt the white flood dragon in his body grow stronger.
“I’ve entered the forty-ninth level of my Qi strengthening technique,” Qin Huai muttered to himself.
The feeling that he was about to break through became more and more obvious. He was certain that he was going to reach level 50 soon.
“There seems to be no wind or rain in the city these two days. Everything is fine,” Qin Huai mused. Other than cultivating, he had already been cooped up in his room for two days.
“Senior brother!”
Luo Ya ran over again. In the past few days, it seemed that the only person who was close to him was this Little Junior Sister.
When the others faced Qin Huai, they all seemed to be distant and awkward.
“Is there any news from the city?” Qin Huai guessed that it was most likely the Blackhawk Gang’s wanted murderer.
“The man we killed that day was indeed Black Wolf, the nephew of the chief of the Blackhawk Gang.” Luo Ya was a little flustered. “The Blackhawk Gang has put out a reward of 100 taels for your information.”
“In other words, I haven’t been exposed.” Qin Huai understood.
“As long as there’s no traitor in the apothecary, ” Luo Ya said, panicking. “Many people in the apothecary know about this. I’m afraid it’s only a matter of time before the news gets out.
“Senior Brother, please follow me to the Luo mansion. Father knows people from the eight big martial arts centers. Although the matter of killing Black Wolf won’t be resolved, at least they won’t dare to send people into the city to kill people.”
…
In the backyard of the apothecary, the crowd looked at each other with an arrest warrant in their hands.
“Find the murderer who killed the nephew of the Blackhawk Gang’s chief. As long as you provide any clues, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!”
After Gu Erwa finished reading, everyone started to grumble.
“Qin Huai, why did you provoke the Blackhawk Gang?”
...
“Yeah, we can’t even eat our fill now.”
“The meat of the month is gone~”
“A hero saving a beauty, sacrificing our entire apothecary!”
“Master said not to mention that matter again!” someone reminded them.
“I know, I know.” Gu Erwa nodded his head vigorously, but his eyes could not help but drift to the wanted order.
Although this year’s grain prices had soared and money was not valuable, it was still a very good thing. However, one hundred taels was still not a small amount.
“Qin Huai is here.”
It was unknown who said this, but everyone immediately scattered. All that was left was the bounty notice.
Qin Huai looked at the bounty notice on the stone table and was silent for a moment. Then, he left to take a stroll.
“I still have to hurry up and improve my strength.” Qin Huai muttered to himself.
The level of the Qi cultivation technique was infinitely close to level 50, and had now stopped at level 49 (802/1000). In other words, as long as he had two more days and two more waves of experience, he would be able to enter level 50 Qi cultivation technique.
...
Furthermore, the feeling that he was about to welcome the second transformation of his blood Qi and body was getting stronger.
This was probably the intuition of a martial artist. There was no mistake.
That night, Master Liu Changyue gathered everyone together again. He had repeatedly emphasized that this matter was not to be disclosed. Those who disobeyed the order would be expelled from the apothecary.
