339 Qin Huai’s Promotion

Another month passed. Qin Huai’s nine dragons true qi technique was steadily improving through the confrontation between the two sects. It increased from 30% to 36%.

In comparison, the poison king technique improved faster. After all, it was only at the second-level bone pattern realm. It was still 30% away from the third-level bone pattern realm.

As for the concealment of spirit and qi, it had only gone from level 84 to level 85, causing Qin Huai’s lifespan to bounce back by five years. This cultivation technique was even more profound, and the difficulty of cultivating it far exceeded the rest of the cultivation techniques. Even the nine dragons true qi technique and the blood heart technique could not be compared to it.

However, the blood heart technique was different from the poison king technique, which required the assistance of poisonous substances. The blood heart technique could be completely replaced by the cultivation of qi and blood medicine. It was just that it would cost too much money.

Fortunately, Qin Huai was now very wealthy. He had the money sent by those unknown noble families, the 1.2 million taels of silver that he had received in two months, and the silver that he had plundered from the corpses.

Half of the one million taels of silver, close to two million taels of silver, had been exchanged for vitality medicine by Zhou Cunzhong to refine and cultivate. He had pushed the blood heart technique, which was originally at the second-level bone pattern realm, to 46% of the third level.

As for the remaining half, Qin Huai was still waiting for the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary’s alchemists to continue refining the red qi tiger wolf pills for him.

Other than that, the Blood Poison Gang and Thunderbolt Gang didn’t suffer any losses during the war. Although hundreds of corpses were left on the streets and alleys, the prestige and strength of the two sects were seen by more people after this battle.

Many martial artists who had only come to the outer city in the past month or two joined the two sects. Not only did the number of people in the two sects not decrease, but they also had around two hundred more people than before.

“We won! Our Blood Poison Gang has won this battle!”

Late at night, the flower boats on the banks of the Qingzhou River were brightly lit. The red-faced Blood Poison Gang martial artists raised their wine glasses, their faces filled with joy.

On the second floor of the flower boat, Wen Zonghao raised his wine cup and announced to the Blood Poison Gang’s martial artists below the stage the gains and losses of the month-long battle.

“Fifth Brother, you’ve contributed quite a bit in this war,” Wen Zonghao called Qin Huai to his side.

“Foster Father!” Qin Huai said respectfully.

Wen Zonghao nodded his head in satisfaction. He then turned to the crowd and said, “In this battle, Qin Huai protected the disciples of the sect. They made great contributions every day on the battlefield. Earlier, he had also protected the third pier.

“Every disciple of our Blood Poison Gang has always been rewarded! It doesn’t look at seniority, age, or realm! It only depends on the credit!”

Wen Zonghao’s powerful voice made the Blood Poison Gang disciples on the boat feel their hearts burn and their faces turn red.

“From today onwards, as the leader of the Blood Poison Gang, I appoint Qin Huai as the chief shopkeeper of the Blood Poison Gang’s pharmacy!”

“Congratulations, Fifth Master!”

“Congratulations, Fifth Master!”

Qin Huai was slightly surprised. Was Wen Zonghao really going to groom him as the leader of the Blood Poison Gang?

He remained calm and raised his glass slowly to the crowd. Then, he drank it all in one go. With Wen Zonghao’s appointment, he had really become a big shot in the Blood Poison Gang.

“Congratulations, Fifth Brother. It’s only been a few days, and you’ve directly removed the word ‘substitute’ in front of the pharmacy’s head shopkeeper.” Huang Qiguang carried a bowl of wine and walked to Qin Huai’s side with a smile.

“I still have to thank Third Brother for taking care of me so that I could reach this position so quickly.” Qin Huai raised his wine bowl to lightly touch Huang Qiguang’s and drank it all in one go.

“Fifth Brother, don’t be happy too early. You may not have become the head shopkeeper of the pharmacy because our foster father wanted to nurture you.” Huang Qiguang said meaningfully.

“Oh, please enlighten me, Third Brother.” Qin Huai’s expression remained unchanged.

Huang Qiguang said unhurriedly, “You and I are both experts in using poison. I’m afraid that no one in the Blood Poison Gang is better than you and me. Fifth Brother, do you know what kind of poison needs to be tested on a corpse?”

Qin Huai shook his head and smiled. “Maybe my realm isn’t high enough, so I don’t know? The path of poison is difficult and arduous. At the visceral prefecture realm, there might be poisons that can be tested on corpses.”

“Haha…” Huang Qiguang chuckled. “That’s reasonable. But I heard there’s a great sect in the west that seems to be particularly fond of corpses. It just so happens that their things have only been in the east for ten years.”

Qin Huai narrowed his eyes slightly. “You can’t say that, Third Brother.”

“I didn’t say anything!” Huang Qiguang smiled sinisterly. “Besides, you killed Mou Jinfu… Where did his body go? Did you really destroy the evidence, or did you not care at all? Only you know that.”

Huang Qiguang patted Qin Huai’s chest lightly. “Mou Jinfu is an old thing who’s about to die. It’s simply wishful thinking for him to want to ascend to the top with his three full patterns realm. But why did he insist on doing something that he shouldn’t have? Anyway, I’ll go ahead now! Fifth Brother, think about it carefully.”

Qin Huai watched Huang Qiguang’s back disappear from his sight. Mou Jinfu’s corpse had indeed been completely destroyed by his flame longevity technique.

There was no doubt that Huang Qiguang’s guess was wrong. His words and thoughts, however, left Qin Huai with no choice but to think deeply.

If Wen Zonghao had secretly joined the Sacred Heart sect and cultivated the blood heart technique… It was reasonable that Wen Zonghao had ordered his men to bring the corpses to his own fort.
