Chapter 10 Opening the Treasure Chest

Chu Qing's guess was correct. Less than an incense stick's time after he left, two figures came running towards him.

"Here's the body!"

Chu Fan landed first and looked around, as if looking for someone.

Junior Sister Wen stood aside without saying a word, holding a piece of cloth in her hand.

Faintly, you can see the words "Ye Di" on it, fluttering in the wind.

After a while, Chu Fan found nothing and stared at the two charred bodies:

"It was done by the Night Emperor again... Who is this person?"

Junior Sister Wen did not answer, but just stared at the words on the cloth.

Chu Fan waited for a moment before asking:
"Junior sister, did you see any clues?"

Junior Sister Wen hesitated for a moment before she spoke seriously:

"This person's handwriting is... so ugly."

"..."

Chu Fan seemed stunned for a moment, and then he smiled silently.

He had long been accustomed to his junior sister's temper and didn't take it seriously.

Just thinking back to what happened just now, I couldn't help but frown:

"I don't know where those two crazy women came from. They are so abominable! Fortunately, the Night Emperor took action and killed all the Seven Iron Horse Thieves. Otherwise, if they were allowed to escape, who knows how many more innocent people would have been harmed by them."

After hearing this, Junior Sister Wen thought for a moment and said:
“They were deceived.”

Chu Fan nodded. After the two Iron Horse Seven Thieves left, they fought for a while before Chu Fan found the opportunity to explain.

After a series of questions and answers, Chu Fan quickly explained his background.

The two women stopped immediately, feeling ashamed and furious, saying that the two thieves dared to deceive them and deserved to be put to death.

Now let’s go find the two thieves first, kill them, and then come back to find Chu Fan to apologize.

After saying this, he jumped away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Chu Fan was so angry that he almost jumped up and down... simply because the direction they were chasing was completely different from the direction the seven thieves on iron cavalry left in!
I don’t know whether these two people are really too stupid or have ulterior motives?

Afterwards, he followed Sister Wen, but when they were halfway there, they saw the two horses with human heads hanging on them.

"No matter what, the execution of the Seven Iron Horse Thieves is a good thing after all."

When Chu Fan said this, he suddenly thought of something and asked:

"Oh, Junior Sister, when we were chasing them earlier, how come you disappeared as soon as I turned around? Where did you go?"

Junior Sister Wen's face remained calm as she spoke in a deep voice:
"I saw a flower in the mountain stream. It was blooming very brilliantly, so I went to pick it."

"…I'm asking you no more questions!"

Chu Fan was so angry that his teeth were bared. If someone else said this, they would definitely be lying.

But Junior Sister Wen...never lies.

She really is the kind of person who could do something like this.

Not reliable!
Unreliable to the extreme!
But Chu Fan has really gotten used to it.

Junior Sister Wen is not the only unreliable one under Cui Bunu, the master of the Bu Angry Divine Fist of Taiyi Sect.

If the eldest brother were here...

Thinking of this, Chu Fan suddenly felt a toothache.

He sighed:
"No wonder Master claims to not get angry, but is so angry with you guys every day..."

……

[There is an unopened martial arts treasure chest. Do you want to open it? ]

In a cave in the barren mountains, Chu Qing opened the system interface while making a fire and grilling meat.

This prompt popped up immediately.

"Turn it on." Naturally, without any hesitation, Chu Qing immediately chose to turn it on.

He was looking forward to what would be found in the second treasure chest.
And the hints followed.

[Opened successfully, obtained Qinggong: Golden Goose Gong! ]

Bits of information poured into his mind like a stream of water, and at the same time, his meridians and corresponding parts of his body also felt slightly warm.

After a while, everything calmed down.

After Chu Qing sorted out the information, he smacked his lips and felt a little regretful:

“…It’s not internal strength.”

What he is most looking forward to now is to be able to obtain a high-level internal skill from this treasure chest.

Then I can use this opportunity to soar into the sky and fear no one.

Now that he had Ah Fei's fast sword, he asked himself whether he could kill the opponent with one blow in a one-on-one situation, even if the opponent's internal strength was superior to his.

But if he was surrounded, or if the opponent's internal strength was far inferior to his own, then he would be in danger.

“My internal strength is still a weakness…but the lightness skill of Golden Goose Kung Fu is also extraordinary.

"After mastering it, I can walk thirty-seven steps in the air. I just don't know how far I can walk with my current internal strength."

With a thought, he flew up and jumped out of the cave like a young swallow flying into the forest.

After his body landed on the ground, he tapped his feet and rose into the air again. He tapped his feet again and walked in the air. He took a step of about three meters before he ran out of strength.

But at this moment, his internal energy changed, and he jumped into the air to a height of nearly ten feet, and landed on a tree.

"[Golden Goose Kung Fu] is not known for its sprinting and speed, but its method of breathing while walking in the air is truly extraordinary.

"With this Qinggong, many difficult-to-cross places can be passed easily.

"It can be said that my family's [Star Chasing and Moon Chasing Step] has its own merits!"

He turned around and landed back in the cave.
“If this Qinggong is used well, it can save lives at critical moments.

"As for the internal energy... let's see if I can use it next time."

Thinking of this, he continued to grill the meat. After having a full meal, he sat cross-legged and began to practice the Ruoxu Sutra.

Over the past half month, the more he practiced the Ruoxu Sutra, the more he felt the exquisiteness of this internal energy.

And I don’t know if it’s because of my time travel that it has caused a certain degree of impact on my body. The speed of my cultivation in the past half month has been much faster than the original owner’s speed in my memory.

Until now, I have been hovering on the edge of the fourth level, and I may be able to enter the fourth level tonight.

There was no conversation that night. The next morning, Chu Qing opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

“The Ruoxu Sutra has already entered the fourth level, and the internal energy has become more powerful.

“This internal energy is continuous, in short, it is durable.

"If other people's internal strength is similar to mine, they will be completely wiped out after one hour of fighting. But I can last three hours and still have some strength left."

Chu Qing was quite pleased that his internal strength had reached a higher level.

For breakfast, I simply had a few apples and the leftover meat from last night, and that was enough.

After carefully erasing all traces of his existence, he headed towards Tianwu City.

Now he is within the scope of Tianwu City. With his walking speed, he can arrive there in seven days at most.

And the journey was relatively peaceful.

The Lord of Tianwu City, Wu Ganqi, is a chivalrous man with good governance. There are few cases of vendettas within his sphere of influence.

However, when Chu Qing was on his sixth day of disguise, a small accident happened.

It was less than a day's journey from here to Tianwu City. Chu Qing used his lightness skills to travel through the forest. When he landed to take a breath and was about to jump up, he suddenly noticed something strange.

Less than three feet away from his feet, there was a dead body lying.

"Tianwu Guard?"

Chu Qing immediately recognized that the clothes the man was wearing were those of the Tianwu Guards.

"How could someone from the Tianwu Guard die here?"

Surprised, he moved closer to take a look, but unexpectedly the corpse suddenly opened its eyes!
