Chapter 103: After the modification: Chapter 102 Overture of Friendship (3rd update, asking for subscriptions and monthly passes)
"Are these two really bandits from Ghost Head Stronghold?
Their disguise is too deep, right? And who are the others?"
Mr. Xuu quickly read the letter, feeling a mix of skepticism and disbelief.
"This one, under the alias Wang the Fifth here, his actual identity is..."
Tong Zhan intentionally paused before continuing, "Face-Cutter Wu Yuan."
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately looked at Tong Zhan.
"Of course."
Nodding confidently, Tong Zhan squatted down and slightly lifted Wu Yuan’s face.
Immediately, a new, somewhat grotesque face appeared before everyone.
This was the reason Bai Ziyue and the others were not worried at all. With the identity of Iron Maiden and her son, why would they come all the way here just to meet a notorious figure from Ghost Head Stronghold?
If there was no connection, who would believe it?
The letters only confirmed this point.
Seeing the real face of the other party, everyone immediately believed it. After all, the other party was registered with the government, and Chief Xuu had also seen him before, naturally recognizing him.
...
"I truly didn’t expect that you three could kill these people.
The two ordinary bandits are fine, but Iron Maiden Yuu Lihua, Traceless Saber Yuu Fang, and the notorious Third Village Chief’s younger brother from Ghost Head Stronghold, Face-Cutter Wu Yuan, are not weak.
Especially Iron Maiden, said to have the combat power of Peak of External Forging at her peak.
Brother Tong, have you already advanced to External Forged Bone Marrow?"
In the Internal Affairs Hall, a steward named Zhang Zhiyong was checking the bodies and verifying identities, showing a look of shock on his face.
If he remembered correctly, Tong Zhan should only be at the realm of External Forging of Tendons and Bones. Even if he had broken through to External Forged Bone Marrow, it would be difficult to deal with three experts above External Forging of Tendons and Bones at the same time. Not to mention one who had reached the Peak of External Forging like Iron Maiden.
Could it be...
Thinking this, he couldn’t help but look at Bai Ziyue.
As for Qin Shaoping, he was excluded from his thoughts immediately.
Even though Qin Shaoping’s talent was good, he was far behind Bai Ziyue.
If anyone could help Tong Zhan among the two, it could only be Bai Ziyue.
"External Forged Bone Marrow? Far from it.
Steward Zhang, there’s no need to guess, it mainly relied on Bai Ziyue this time.
If it weren’t for him killing Wu Yuan first to relieve my siege, old me, Tong, would have lost my life here."
Tong Zhan smiled bitterly and shook his head as he spoke.
Immediately, Zhang Zhiyong’s eyes showed a mix of suspicion and astonishment. Is Bai Ziyue’s strength really that strong?
But he knew that Tong Zhan wouldn’t lie, and he genuinely felt a bit of admiration in his heart.
The other disciples of the Internal Affairs Hall also looked surprised and curious. If Bai Ziyue’s strength was indeed that strong, then tomorrow’s duel would be something to watch.
Originally, most people didn’t favor Bai Ziyue against Li Yingru. Not because they underestimated him, but because the gap in their training years was at least three years.
Even if Bai Ziyue’s talent surpassed Li Yingru’s, it’s not easy to bridge a gap of three years.
However, if Bai Ziyue’s strength was as Tong Zhan described, the title of outstanding disciple would be harder to predict.
Tong Zhan’s conversation with Steward Zhang and the looks from others, Bai Ziyue naturally noticed.
But his expression always remained calm and indifferent.
His actual strength had already reached the Peak of External Forging. After merging several External Forging Techniques, he achieved a flawless state, with his power round and perfect, reaching the pinnacle of External Forging.
Naturally, killing a few people far weaker than himself wouldn’t stir any emotions.
If he didn’t want to expose his true strength in front of Tong Zhan and Qin Shaoping, he could have wiped out everyone within a few breaths without any effort.
At this moment, what he really cared about was how much Soul Energy he gained from killing these people and how much contribution he could get from them.
Regarding Soul Energy, he had checked earlier. Although the strength of these individuals was not weak, it wasn’t strong either. Together, they added nearly two thousand points of Soul Energy to him.
The one who contributed the most was Wu Yuan, even more than Yuu Lihua, who was said to have reached the Peak of External Forging.
This might be due to her Qi and Blood declining.
Counting the remaining points and contributions from the Snake Demon, his Soul Energy Points had once again exceeded eight thousand.
"Soul Energy Points: 8356."
Bai Ziyue was quite satisfied with this number.
"However, this amount of Soul Energy is still insufficient to elevate my Inner Cultivation Technique to Perfection."
Bai Ziyue couldn’t help but ponder.
Even though he hadn’t exchanged for the Inner Cultivation Technique yet, he had long decided to reserve enough Soul Energy Points to enhance the technique and further elevate his strength.
He had stayed at the Peak of External Forging long enough.
He naturally didn’t want to waste more time waiting.
Given his understanding of the Attribute Panel, higher-grade Cultivation Techniques or Martial Arts would require more Soul Energy to enhance.
"Steward Zhang, do you know how many contributions we can get this time?"
At this moment, Qin Shaoping couldn’t help but ask impatiently.
Bai Ziyue also returned to his senses, showing a concerned look.
If the contribution points they obtain are sufficient, they wouldn’t need to come up with so much silver.
Comparatively, silver has stronger purchasing power.
"These two are just regular disciples of the Ghost Head Stronghold, together they can only give you a hundred contribution points.
As for this Face-Cutter Wu Yuan, in terms of strength, he is actually equivalent to a small leader, but given his notorious reputation and the fact that he is the brother of the Third Village Chief of the Ghost Head Stronghold, we’ll count him as a big leader.
Three hundred contribution points.
As for the last two..."
The Internal Affairs Hall disciple hesitated slightly.
Iron Maiden Yuu Lihua and Traceless Saber Yuu Fang, due to their hidden identities, although they’ve been confirmed to be members of the Ghost Head Stronghold, their contribution points are hard to calculate.
"Given Iron Maiden’s strength, she qualifies to be considered a small leader, but Yuu Fang..."
Seeing Tong Zhan’s expectant gaze, Steward Zhang looked at Bai Ziyue, who remained indifferent. Although slightly disappointed, he, in the interest of creating goodwill, said, "I’ll consider them both as small leaders for you.
One small leader equates to one hundred fifty contribution points, making two three hundred. For the three of you, the total contribution points come to seven hundred.
As for how to divide them, that’s your own matter."
Saying so, the Internal Affairs Hall disciple signed and recorded the document.
Next, they can claim the contribution points from the Internal Affairs Hall using this document.
"Thank you, Steward Zhang, thank you, Steward Zhang."
Tong Zhan delightedly thanked him repeatedly.
Then he immediately pulled Bai Ziyue and Qin Shaoping away.
As for those corpses and other matters, they would naturally be handled by the government and Internal Affairs Hall, no need for them to worry.
"Let’s hurry, perhaps we can still get some gains."
After walking a distance, Tong Zhan, disregarding his injuries, whispered excitedly. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"Gains? What gains?"
Qin Shaoping, carrying a large backpack, asked puzzledly.
Although the recent battle was thrilling, the gains from it had already left him immensely satisfied.
A total of seven hundred contribution points, several times more than their last. Certainly, it was a significant haul.
Not to mention the bundle he carried on his back and the large package Bai Ziyue had... If not fearing attracting attention, he would have shouted with excitement.
"Is Tong referring to the Iron Maiden’s household valuables?"
Bai Ziyue suddenly asked.
"Correct.
Iron Maiden lived with her mother; if they were truly righteous people, we’d naturally avoid seizing their assets even if they died.
But now proven to be members of the Ghost Head Stronghold, we needn’t be polite.
Why reject plain benefits?"
Tong Zhan said, justified.
"Then let’s hurry.
Moments ago, I saw Chief Xuu sneaking away.
I initially had doubts; it now seems they’re headed to Iron Maiden’s place."
Hearing this, Bai Ziyue promptly spoke.
"Then what are we waiting for?"
At these words, Tong Zhan hastily sped off in a direction.
With his Qi and blood surging, the wounds treated with Golden Wound Medicine bled again.
But he paid no mind, moving swiftly.
Bai Ziyue and Qin Shaoping followed closely behind.
After an incense-stick worth of time, the trio arrived at a quiet courtyard.
From the doorway, glimpses of the inside could be seen, with grapevines hung over the house, clusters of green grapes adorning them, pleasing to the eye.
The courtyard had various blooming flowers, quite beautiful.
"Iron Maiden surely was a tasteful person."
Seeing the surroundings, Qin Shaoping couldn’t help but remark.
"No time for this, let’s go inside."
Tong Zhan snorted, seeing the open door, realizing others have beaten them, felt agitated and quickly rushed inside.
"Chief Xuu is quite fast, huh."
Inside, Tong Zhan saw Chief Xuu startled by their entry.
In several rooms, he also saw other arresting officers rapidly searching.
"Likewise."
With a forced smile, they both turned and began swiftly searching for valuable items.
Qin Shaoping, seeing Chief Xuu and the others, felt annoyed but followed Tong Zhan, searching rapidly.
Only Bai Ziyue, upon entering the courtyard, focused on the shrine.
