Martial Arts Song

Chapter 397 More Communication

"To destroy his 'god' and see if anyone has tampered with it?"

Hearing Qi Yi's words, Xuan Feng was immediately surprised and asked: "Do you want to use that method? But isn't that against the harmony of nature? Isn't it forbidden by the sect's rules?!"

"Special matters should be handled specially. People should not be too bound by rules."

Qi Yi said calmly, "If Liuying goes to war against us, we don't know how many people will be killed or injured on the Huhai side. You broke a sect rule to save so many lives. I believe that even if Master You knew about it, he would not blame you. Moreover, the other side is Liuying. At the end of the Ning Dynasty, the Western Continent powers and Liuying invaded together and killed many of our compatriots. We don't need to treat them as human beings."

"It seems to be the same..."

Upon hearing this, Xuanfeng nodded in agreement.

But then, he frowned slightly and said, "However, even if we work together here to break the tricks that Chiba Kiyohiro has put in this man's 'god', when we take him to accuse Ryuo, he will be controlled by Chiba Kiyohiro again, right? After all, this man has already been 'bewitched' by him, just like the keyhole of a lock has become his shape. Those of us who use wire to open the lock are definitely not as easy and convenient as his original key."

"That's a problem."

After hearing Xuan Feng's words, Qi Yi's brows immediately frowned.

Just as the two were thinking about this problem.

Suddenly, their ears moved at the same time, and their eyes looked towards the closed iron door of the interrogation room at the same time.

The next second, there was a "click" sound of the keyhole opening, and then the thick iron door was pushed open, and a figure walked in.

I saw a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her forties, also wearing a khaki uniform. However, the style of her uniform was different from the ones worn by the two young men and Qi Yi. It was more elegant and the fabric was more textured.

And the military rank on his shoulders is much higher than Qi Yi's.

The person who came was Yue Suchun!
After walking in, Yue Suchun closed the iron door of the interrogation room and pulled the bolt.

Then, she looked at Qi Yi and Xuan Feng and said, "The problem you are worried about does not exist. Qianye Qinghong died yesterday."

"died?!"

Qi Yi and Xuan Feng were both stunned when they heard this.

They were not surprised that Yue Suchun was able to hear their conversation outside through the wall and iron door of the interrogation room.

After all, each of the Four Saints’ Sect’s Hall Masters must be a master of “Three Huas Transformation”.

Even if the situation of the White Tiger Hall occurred, the current hall master passed away, and the disciples with the strength of "Three Huas Transformation" disappeared, leaving only Chen Qing, the disciple who had not achieved "Three Huas Transformation". In the end, Chen Qing was only allowed to temporarily take over the position of the White Tiger Hall Chairman, and it was not a formal appointment.

This was after the decline of the Four Saints Sect, when there were not many people left in the sect.

This shows how strictly this rule was enforced before the Four Sacred Religions declined.

What surprised Qi Yi and Xuan Feng was that Chiba Qinghong actually died yesterday. This was too much of a coincidence!

"Is this true? Can a master of the Second Divine Transformation die so easily?"

Xuan Feng said in surprise.

It's no wonder he feels that way.

Because he had previously experienced the incident where Furukawa Takaya was killed by Chen Qing using artillery bombing.

Qi Yi also frowned and said, "Master, is this a trick?"

"I checked it myself."

Yue Suchun said calmly, "When the Ning Dynasty collapsed and the foreign powers invaded, I met Chiba Kiyohiro and Furukawa Takaya. Although so many years have passed, I will not make mistakes. However, Chiba Kiyohiro's death does seem very coincidental. Guess how he died? Here's a hint. He died in Dongcheng."

Qi Yi and Xuan Feng were confused when they heard this question.

But after hearing the following hint, both of them were moved.

"Could it be... that this was also done by my soldier brother?!"

Xuan Feng said with a look of disbelief.

Qi Yi said thoughtfully, "He has now achieved both 'essence' and 'qi' transformation. With Jueying, a master who has achieved 'three transformations', by his side, if he really fought with Qianye Qinghong, he would indeed have the strength to kill Qianye Qinghong."

"He probably did it alone."

Yue Suchun spoke calmly, "To deal with a master of the second-level transformation like Qianye Qinghong who is good at 'mind' and 'eye-catching', the more people there are, the more trouble there will be. And Jueying's current physical and mental state makes it easier for him to be controlled by Qianye Qinghong."

"Is that so?"

Qi Yi was suddenly enlightened when he heard this.

Xuan Feng on the side muttered quietly: "Brother Bing is getting more and more powerful. The two second-level divine transformation masters of Liuying actually died in his hands..."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Since Chiba Kiyohiro is dead, your worries are no longer a problem. Hurry up and break the "divine barrier" of this witness. I have other things to deal with."

Yue Suchun was too lazy to talk any more and urged the two of them.

Knowing that Chiba Kiyohiro was dead, Xuanfeng didn't say anything else.

Then, in this narrow interrogation room, the three of them began to break the "divine barrier" of the thirty-something Ryusakura Consulate driver who was fixed on the iron chair...

……

"Dong dong dong."

The sound of a knock on the door rang out in the alley bathed in the moonlight.

Chen Qing stood at the door of Lin Manli's house, waiting for someone inside to open the door.

But before Lin Manli could reach him, a figure suddenly came to the edge of the roof, then looked down at him in the moonlight, frowned and asked, "How did you get into this state?"

The figure had the right sleeve of his clothes swaying slightly in the wind, and it was empty. It was none other than Jueying.

"Something happened."

Chen Qing looked up at Jueying and shook his head, "It's hard to put it into words."

He understood that Jueying probably heard the unsteady footsteps and abnormal heartbeat and breathing when he walked over, but other aspects looked like him, so it was difficult to tell whether it was him. That's why he came up to the roof to see the situation in person - Lin Manli's house was an integrated one, with no walls, only skylights, and the yard was all inside.

After waiting for a while under the moonlight and seeing his appearance clearly and confirming that it was him, I began to wonder why he had become like this, hence the question just now.

Chen Qing didn't think there was anything wrong with this. Instead, he felt that Jueying was serious and responsible in protecting the Chen family.

However, what he experienced tonight could not be explained in a few words, nor was it convenient to talk about it here, so he did not explain further.

After hearing this, Jueying didn't ask any more questions and turned around and walked back.

After a moment, the door opened.

Jiang Ying, Lin Manli, Chen Yang, Chen Zhengzhong, and Yang Ying all appeared behind the door.

Chen Qing raised his hand and made a "hush" sound, making a gesture for silence, then walked into the house and closed the door.

After that, naturally, Chen Yang, Yang Ying, Lin Manli and others showed concern and asked about him. Chen Qing naturally reported good news but not bad news, and did not tell anyone about Cui Wenjue.

For a great master like Cui Wenjue who has achieved the "Three Transformations at the same time", let alone ordinary people like my mother Yang Ying, even ordinary masters would be helpless. Talking to them would only cause them more trouble.

Rather than that, it’s better not to say anything.

But in the following few days, Chen Qing did not go out again. He stayed at Lin Manli's place with the Chen family every day, eating and sleeping together.

He didn't boil any medicine to quickly replenish his energy, because if he did, the smell of the medicine would spread around and be smelled by other residents, which would become a suspicious point that would expose himself.

With his current physical strength, the speed at which his body and organs recover on their own is already quite amazing.

As long as he has enough food and nutrition, his recovery speed will not be much slower than taking medicine.

What this shows to the outside world is that his appetite is quite exaggerated!

The food originally prepared was enough for so many people to eat for about a month, but as he needed to recuperate and recover, he ate almost ten days' worth of food in just two days!
During these two days, except for Jueying, everyone else was shocked by his appetite!
But Chen Qing couldn't care less about these. After all, the half-month deadline given by Liuying was getting shorter and shorter.

He must raise his condition to the peak before the expiration date.

It was when Chen Qing stayed in Lin Manli's house, eating and sleeping with the Chen family, and recuperating.

As the half-month deadline given by Liuying approached, the atmosphere in the entire city, whether in East City or West City, began to become tense.

Chen Qing's family and the Dongcheng martial artists were not the only ones who knew that Liuying had given the Central State officials a half-month deadline.

People in other fields also have their own channels to learn about this news.

Therefore, as the date approached, more and more people left "Hu Hai", and West City and East City also began to make corresponding preparations for the war.

The most obvious thing in this regard is that on the main streets of the east and west city districts, more and more soldiers patrolling with guns and military jeeps and trucks are frequently seen.

In addition, there are fewer and fewer merchant and passenger ships on the "Red River", and the proportion of news in newspapers is increasingly about military matters.

These military news basically report that the central government's official Hu army, Zhe army, Soviet army and other local armies have sent warships and submarines to patrol the waters near the "Hu Hai".

Although such news expresses that the central government is fully prepared for war, from another perspective, it also implies that the probability of war breaking out is very high!
Under these factors, "Huhai", the largest city in the south, has entered a "tense" state!
In such a "tense" state, after two days of recuperation, Chen Qing finally had to go out again on October 7th.

Because this day was the second big gathering of all the martial artists in Dongcheng, and it was also the day that Luo Zongping had promised to distribute fireworks flares to all the martial artists' martial arts schools.

But the good news was that the gathering place was not far from him, it was in Sanyang District, the "Luo's Paper Factory" where he used to work.

When Luo Zongping announced this location at the first gathering, Chen Qing was not surprised.

He had seen a large amount of supplies stored by Luo Zongping inside, so it was normal for him to choose to hold the second gathering here and hand over the fireworks flares to other martial artists.

Early in the morning, Chen Qing drove away from Lin Manli's house alone, and then followed the alley to Zhaole Road.

Then he drove to Jiulong Avenue along the river in Sanlin District.

Along the way, Chen Qing saw that the doors of the previous grain and oil shops on both sides of the street had been smashed open, and the inside was empty with only some cargo frames left, without any trace of rice or grain.

On the streets, uniformed police officers were patrolling.

When they encounter someone with shifty eyes or suspicious behavior, these patrolling police will step forward and interrogate them.

Zhaole Road is not the main street in Sanlin District, so the patrol is conducted by people from the police station.

Chen Qing watched all of this while driving. After a moment, he retracted his attention and looked at the [Spirit] value at the bottom of his left eye:
【Fine: 28.78234786】

【Qi: 25.98364383】

【God: 8.401128539】

After two days of eating a lot and recovering, his condition had almost recovered. His [Essence] value had recovered to around 28.7, still a little short of his peak state of around 30.47, but not much.

The [Qi] value is affected by the upper limit of the [Jing] value, so it is also reduced accordingly.

But overall, it has almost recovered.

What surprised him was that the [God] value not only did not decrease, but instead increased from 8.389 to 8.4!

In total, it has increased by about 0.011.

Chen Qing guessed that it was related to the terrifying blow he launched a few days ago when dealing with the three masters guarding Wang Chen, which stimulated the kidneys to secrete "adrenaline" and the heart's "explosive potential".

Although he had "confirmed" his limits in all aspects some time ago, considering that the war was about to begin and he could not allow himself to be in a weak state, those powerful attacks that exhausted his [Chi] value and those extraordinary feats that would put him in a weak state were not "confirmed".

If the circumstances that night had not been special, Chen Qing would have had to be fully prepared before he could "verify" these limits.

"I'm still 1.6 away from 'Divine Transformation'. It seems I won't be able to break through to the realm of 'Three Transformations' before the war breaks out..."

After looking at his own condition, Chen Qing sighed inwardly and then turned his attention back to reality.

Because not everyone can afford to drive a car, even though there were police patrolling on the road, they did not stop him.

He drove all the way from Zhaole Road to the Jiulong Avenue section in Sanlin District, then drove straight along Jiulong Avenue to Sanyang District, then turned into Sanyang District and came to "Guoshan Road" where the "Luo's Paper Mill" was located.

Today's "Guoshan Road" is no longer the same as when he came to work before.

There was no sign of any workers or breakfast vendors on the entire road, only the occasional passing car and rickshaw.

Chen Qing drove all the way to the gate of "Luo's Paper Mill".

Then he discovered that there was no one in the guard room at the gate, but the gate was open.

At this time, there were already two cars parked inside the factory.

He recognized that one of the cars was Luo Zongping's, but he didn't recognize the other one.

"It looks like someone got here earlier than me."

Thinking of this, Chen Qing drove the car directly into the factory and parked it next to the two cars.

Just after he parked the car, opened the door and got out, suddenly, a smiling voice came from above his head: "Little friend Lin, you are here."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing raised his head and looked quickly.

He found that above the car was parked, in the office building of "Luo's Paper Mill", in front of an aisle window, there was a middle-aged man in purple training clothes standing and looking at him with a smile.

"Master Pan?"

Chen Qing shouted in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Pan Qiming flipped over the window and jumped down, landing directly on the ground from the fourth floor!

Then, he walked towards Chen Qing with a smile as if nothing had happened, and said, "Little friend Lin, your suggestion that night was very good, and I got very good feedback. Let's communicate more in the future!"
