Chapter 40: Whereabouts of the Tree Building Technique

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wang Zhi was very confident in his disguise.

From the beginning to the end, there was not a single flaw in his facade.

However, until now, he still could not understand how Victor would know that he had poisoned the Tiger Bone soup.

Therefore, he was very puzzled.

Now that he was bound to die, he wanted to understand this matter before he died.

“Go ask God!”

Victor was too lazy to explain to a dying man.

Moreover, Wang Zhi was a despicable and vicious person who would use immoral methods to achieve his goal.

A person who could break his son’s limbs with a straight face, and even when his wife drank the poisoned soup and died from the poison, he still continued to carry out the plot till the very end.

Therefore, as long as he was not completely dead, Victor would not show him any mercy.

Soon, Victor gathered all his strength to unleash the max-level Thunder Fist and crushed Wang Zhi’s head.

Wang Zhi whose strength was already weaker than Victor’s, was now heavily injured and had difficulty moving. Before Victor who was in the Xiantian realm, he stood no chance to fight back.

In just a few breath’s time, under Victor’s rapid attacks, Wang Zhi’s life had ended quickly.

Hua Feng looked at Wang Zhi who was lying on the ground, was beaten into a pulp, and had blood gushing out like a fountain.

His mouth trembled in fear.

Currently, he still hadn’t fully understood the situation.

Wasn’t everyone just fine three minutes ago?

Why did the junior elder kill Master Wang?

Suddenly, Hua Feng felt his mind being bombarded with questions.

He had so many thoughts that he felt like his head had grown bigger from thinking.

Hua Feng looked at Victor in confusion.

He hoped that Victor could give him an answer.

Victor obviously saw Hua Feng’s confusion, but he didn’t have the time to explain it to him slowly now.

“Let’s go!”

Victor wanted to slash Wang Chen to death in the shortest time possible.

Victor activated his true qi and waved his hand. A fierce Thunder Fist shadow pierced through Wang Chen’s heart and shattered it.

Then, he activated the Wind technique and rushed out of the door.

Before the others in the valley could react, Victor took Hua Feng and exited the gate of Qingyan Valley.

..

Half an hour later.

“What did you say? Wang Zhi’s family was murdered?”

The faction closest to Qingyan Valley was also one of the few people who could speak to the master of Qingyan Valley.

In the Dongshi pavilion.

Wu Hao, who was eating lunch, suddenly stood up when he heard the urgent report from his servant. He cried out in disbelief.

He was so shocked that he had accidentally knocked over his rice bowl.

“Master, although it  sounds unbelievable, it’s absolutely true!”

“Let’s go and have a look!”

It is impossible for Wu Hao to still have an appetite after hearing this news.

This news was too shocking.

The cunning and shrewd master of Qingyan Valley, Wang Zhi, was actually killed in his own home.

Moreover, according to the servant who passed on the message.

The killers were two teenagers.

If it weren’t for the servant’s desperate cry for help, he would have suspected that the servant was joking.

Not long after.

Wu Hao and the others arrived at Wang Zhi’s living room.

Almost everything in the living room was normal.

There were barely any signs of battle.

By the dining table, Mrs. Wang laid on the ground with blood flowing out of her face.

On the other side.

Wang Chen, who was lying on the stretcher, had a fist-sized cavity in his heart, which was soaked in blood.

The person who had the most tragic death was the valley master of Qingyan Valley, Wang Zhi.

His head and upper body had all collapsed. It was obvious that he had been continuously beaten up by a fist technique.

“These injuries… were caused by the  Thunder Fist technique!”

“Don’t tell me those two teens also possess the Thunder Fist technique?”

“How is that possible?”

According to his knowledge, Wang Zhi knew the Thunder Fist because his grandfather, Wang Liu, was Taoist Yi Chen’s disciple.

After hundred years of evolution, there were probably many families who practiced Thunder Fist.

Thus, Wu Hao was not surprised that people outside of Qingyan Valley knew of the Thunder Fist.

Instead, he was surprised because Victor and Hua Feng could perform the Thunder Fist at such a young age.

It is important to know that the Thunder Fist was a very brilliant fist technique.

To practice the Thunder Fist, one needed a solid foundation of internal energy.

Because the performing of Thunder Fist exhausts a great deal of inner qi.

Furthermore, if one’s cultivation level was too low, it was impossible to execute it.

“This is…”

Wu Hao seemed to have smelled something. He walked over Mrs. Wang’s corpse and headed towards the dining table.

He scooped a spoonful of soup with the ladle and gave it a whiff. He immediately understood the situation.

“Sigh… he brought this upon himself. He can’t live with himself!”

Wu Hao, who was familiar with Wang Zhi’s personality, sighed.

Then, he walked out of the courtyard and instructed the servant outside, “Find a day and bury him!”

..

On the other side.

Victor and Hua Feng had already arrived in front of the waterfall that Wang Zhi mentioned.

Standing on the peak of the mountain, they looked across. The rapid waterfall set off huge waves and plunged towards the deep pool at the bottom of the cliff.

He finally found it!

Although Victor knew that the Tree Building technique was in the deep pool not far below him.

But now, he had to figure out how to retrieve the technique.

Although he was already in the Xiantian realm, he still could not ignore the sheer cliff and rocks.

If he jumped down directly, he would definitely die if he hit a hidden rock.

Therefore, he had to find the hidden route mentioned in the guide.

It was introduced in the guide that if they first passed through a small cave they would enter the karst cave under the deep pool.

The entrance should be somewhere by the foot of this mountain peak.

This method may be time-consuming, but it was the safest and steadiest method.

On the side.

Hua Feng, who had been standing behind Victor, was wiping the cold sweat off his face.

After thinking carefully along the way, he thought about Junior Elder Victor’s actions.

Now, he had essentially figured out the whole story. He subsequently broke out in a cold sweat due to fear.

At the same time, he was glad that he had Junior Elder Victor by his side.

If it wasn’t for Junior Elder Victor…

The consequences would have been unimaginable!

On the surface, Wang Zhi was extremely enthusiastic.

Who would have thought that under his smiling face, there was a heart that was prepared to kill them any time.

However, after experiencing this. He had grown a lot.

“Hua Feng, go down the mountain and try to find as many vines as possible. The more the better.”

“What about you, junior elder?”

“I’ll take a look around first.

Remember, we’ll be back here to gather when the time comes.”

After saying that, Victor cast the Wind technique and began to explore along the edge of the cliff.

Since the guide mentioned that one could reach the karst cave in ten minutes from the entrance of the cave.

This meant that the entrance of the cave was not far from the deep pool.

His current idea was to implement both possibilities at the same time.

It would be best if he could find the hidden cave without going down the cliff.

If not, they would have to risk going down the cliff.
