Chapter 78: Chu Country's Aristocratic Family; Completing the Transaction

Translator: Atlas Studios      Editor: Atlas Studios

One of the girls ran over and held the iron fence tightly with both hands. She asked excitedly,

“You know about the aristocratic family?!

“Chengxue!” Another girl walked forward and pulled the girl in front. When she saw Han Zhao dressed as a martial artist, she asked, “Young Master, the aristocratic family you mentioned is…

After all, ordinary martial artists would call powerful families aristocratic families. They were different from the aristocratic families they spoke of.

“Of course, I'm talking about the Divine Weapon Family.” Han Zhao said seriously.

“You really know about the aristocratic family! The girl in front revealed a look

Clang!

Han Zhao cut the door lock.

“It stinks in here! Let's talk outside.'

Han Zhao pulled open the iron door and gestured for the three women to follow him out.

The three women walked out of the prison one after another.

Looking at their unsteady footsteps, it was unknown if they were poisoned or if they were very weak.

“By the way, my name is Song Que. I still don't know your names?

Han Zhao brought the girls out of the dungeon and asked the triplets behind him.

“My name is Lian Chengxue!” The girl who spoke first answered first. Then, she pointed at the girl who stopped her just now. “This is my elder sister, Lian

Chengyu.”

“This is my third sister, Lian Chengbing.” Lian Chengxue pointed at the girl who had not spoken from the beginning to the end.

“Greetings.” Han Zhao cupped his fists and bowed.

Although the Yuj Xue, and Bing sisters looked identical, they seemed to be easier to distinguish based on their personalities.

The second daughter, Lian Chengxue, had just escaped, but she looked lively and innocent. It was obvious that she had been protected too well by her family and did not know how sinister people were. It reminded him of Ji Baiwei.

So gullible.

The third sister, Lian Chengbing, looked a little shy.

As for the eldest sister, Lian Chengyu, she seemed to have experience in the pugilistic world and was a little wary of him.

Han Zhao brought everyone to the front yard and said, “Everyone, the bandits of the Flying Dragon Stockade, including Qi Xing, have all been killed by me. You can go home now. In addition…”

“You killed my father! I'll fight you to the death!” A girl around 12 or 13 years old shouted. She broke free from the embrace of the purple-robed woman behind her and stabbed at Han Zhao with a dagger.

“Ying'er! No!” The purple-clothed young woman cried out in shock.

Pfft!

A black stream flashed past, and Han Zhao sheathed his saber.

“Plop!” The girl fell to the ground, her head separated from her body.

“Ah!” The woman in the field exclaimed and covered her eyes in shock at this terrifying scene.

The purple-robed woman rushed up and cried on the girl's corpse. She shouted at Han Zhao. “How could von do this?! She's still a child!”

“She was no longer a child the moment she swung her saber at me,” Han Zhao said calmly. “If you don't want her to die, you should have held her tightly.”

“Good kill! The daughter of a bandit is also a bandit!”

“That's right! She deserves to be killed!” “It's time to kill the bandit's woman too!”

“Kill her! Kill her!”

At this moment, the women who had just been released from the dungeon were agitated.

“Shut up!” Han Zhao's expression darkened.

The crowd immediately fell silent.

“I killed the bandits of the Flying Dragon Stockade because I have a grudge against them. Secondly, I promised Madam Mei that I would save her and you guys one day. Finally, I want to find the money Qi Xing plundered. As for the rest, I wont care.”

Han Zhao said calmly.

As he spoke, he looked at the purple-clothed woman lying on the ground. “From the looks of it, you should be Qi Xings woman. You should know where his money is hidden, right?”

Facing Han Zhao's calm gaze, the purple-robed woman hurriedly nodded.

“Take me there!”

“Please… Hero, follow me.”

Han Zhao followed. Seeing that the three sisters of the Lian family were standing behind him without moving, he smiled and said, “Aren't you going together?”

“Yeah… we're coming!” Lian Chengxue followed immediately.

Seeing this, Lian Chengyu and Lian Chengbing followed closely behind.

The five of them arrived at the main room in the east wing. The purple-robed woman opened a secret compartment behind the cabinet in the study and took out a wooden box.

Inside the box was a stack of banknotes with a hundred denominations.

Han Zhao counted. There was a total of 3,500 taels.

There was also a saber technique manual that could be cultivated to the third Blood Qi Breakthrough realm. He only roughly scanned it before putting it away with the banknotes.

“Is that all?” Han Zhao frowned slightly.

“Everything I know is here. I don't know if there's anything hidden elsewhere. Hero, can you let me off?   The purple-robed woman's plump body trembled slightly, and a fawning expression appeared on her charming face “Okay, you can leave first.” Han Zhao waved his hand.

The purple-robed woman left the room as if she had been pardoned. Han Zhao turned to look at the three Lian sisters with a smile.

“The three of you don't have to be nervous. I heard from Madam Mei that you're from Chu, so I have some questions that I want the three of you to answer for me. I don't have any ill intentions towards you.”

“Brother Song, I don't feel the power of the black membrane from you. Are you a pure martial artist? Or did you not awaken your bloodline, or was your innate bloodline too weak? You didnt…” Lian Chengxue threw out a series of questions.

“Chengxue!” Lian Chengyu shouted at her. To a descendant of an aristocratic family, saying that someone else's innate bloodline was too weak was simply a slap in the face.

Han Zhao waved at Lian Chengyu, indicating that she should not speak.

This Lian Chengxue was too easy to communicate with.

“I'm a pure martial artist, but I've interacted with the Ji familys disciples before. Do you know the Ji family of Great Wei?” Han Zhao smiled.

“The Ji family?! Of course, I know! There's not a single descendant of an aristocratic family in the world who doesnt know about the Five Great Surnames and Ten Great Families of the Wei Country. Brother Song, you're really impressive. You actually know someone from the Ji family!” Lian Chengxue revealed a look of admiration.

“No, it was just a chance encounter. We're not familiar.” Han Zhao waved his hand.

“Hero Song, didn't you just say that you had a question for us? Go ahead and ask. I'll definitely tell you everything I know.” Lian Chengyu changed the topic.

If Second Sister continued, she would probably expose their background.

If not for the fact that their stupid second sister insisted on serving justice despite the decline of their bloodline, they would not have fallen into the trap of a martial artist and been captured to the dark dungeon to be imprisoned for five days and five nights.

“I heard from Madam Mei that there was a plague and a drought in Chu. Was it done by an aristocratic family?” Seeing that Lian Chengyu had interrupted, Han Zhao returned to the main topic.

“Yes.” Lian Chengyu told the truth.

“The Chu Country's Hundred Spirit Sect and the White Tiger Aristocratic

Family joined forces to fight against our local aristocratic families in Yi Province. In the end, we were defeated. Many aristocratic families were wiped out by the Hundred Spirit Sect and the White Tiger Aristocratic Family.” Lian Chengxue explained.

“We, the defeated descendants of the aristocratic families, can only run in all directions. Eldest Sister, Third Sister, and I brought… Ugh!”

Lian Chengxue was halfway through her sentence when Lian Chengyu covered her mouth tightly and glared at her fiercely as if she wanted to eat her.

She nodded in fear. After Lian Chengyu let go of her, she whispered, “Big Sister… I'll shut up. I won't speak anymore.”

“Are the Hundred Spirit Sect and the White Tiger Aristocratic Family that strong?” Han Zhao asked.

“Yes,” Lian Chengyu replied. “Just like the Five Great Surnames of Great Wei, they are all Spirit Beast Families. They inherit the bloodline of ancient spirit beasts.

The descendants of spirit beast families could compete with top martial artists of the same level at the peak of martial arts a thousand years ago.

Disciples of aristocratic families who had awakened the bloodline of spirit beasts could both cultivate martial arts and focus on stimulating the power of their bloodline. Moreover, because of the rich vitality in their bodies, it was easier for them to be recognized by divine weapons.

Therefore, spirit beast families were slightly stronger than divine weapon families of the same level.

The Hundred Spirit Sect and the White Tiger Aristocratic Family were both top spirit beast aristocratic families.

The White Tiger Aristocratic Family inherited the white tiger bloodline, while the Hundred Spirit Sect inherited the bloodline of various bird-type spirit beasts.

The current Great Wei's Cao family was a spirit beast aristocratic family with the bloodline of the Nine Li Battle Beast.

“I see.” Han Zhao came to a realization. No wonder Chu dared to invade the Great Wei. The so-called national war was just a battle between these aristocratic families.

Could these people be here to snatch his Essence Soul Bead?

Han Zhao immediately felt immense pressure.

However, there was no hurry for the time being. He had to hide and develop first.

In any case, Chu Country would not invade until he was 26 years old. As long as he simulated it in advance and moved, there was still time.

Previously, he had not moved from the simulation and had been living well in Cloud Prefecture.

Next, Han Zhao asked about the Divine Weapon Family and the Spirit Beast

Family.

Lian Chengyu did not hide anything.

It turned out that the Divine Weapon Family called the black membrane formed by the Yin energy and the power that filled their bodies “Binding Force”.

At the Bind-level, with every increase in Binding Force, there would be an additional black membrane vein. There could at most be seven veins.

The first vein of the Bind-level corresponded to the level of Force Tempering for martial artists, and the second vein of the Bind-level corresponded to the Greater Mastery of Force Tempering.

From the third vein onwards, there would be a qualitative change. It was equivalent to a martial artist at the Visceral Tempering Realm. This level was considered an expert in the aristocratic family.

In the Visceral Tempering Realm, one had to integrate Internal Force into their internal organs according to the order of the heart, spleen, lungs, kidneys, and liver. They also had to integrate Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, and Wood Qi. Only then could they face Binding Force head-on.

The Bind-level from three to seven veins corresponded to the Visceral Tempering Realm from one qi to five qi.

After the Bind-level was the Snake-level. The black membrane formed an

Indestructible Black Snake that corresponded to the martial artist's Fiend

Condensation Martial Saint.

Experts at this level were all famous people in a prefecture.

As for the spirit beast aristocratic family, they had a separate system that was divided according to the degree of bloodline awakening.

The first awakening was equivalent to a Force Tempering Martial Master, the second awakening was equivalent to a Visceral Tempering Grandmaster, and the third awakening was equivalent to a Fiend Condensation Martial Saint.

From the fourth to sixth awakening, it was equivalent to the Divine Power Martial God Realm.

The comparison between the spirit beast aristocratic family and the divine weapon aristocratic family was relatively blurry. This was because there were many types of spirit beasts, and the power of divine weapons was also strange.

As for the three sisters of the Lian family, according to Lian Chengyu, they were just unranked characters in a small aristocratic family. They had not even awakened their bloodlines and could not even defeat a Blood Tempering Realm martial artist.

Han Zhao felt that Lian Chengyu was hiding something, but he did not probe further. There was no need to cause trouble.

It was enough to obtain a large sum of money and information on this trip.

Speaking of which, he had not encountered these three Lian sisters in the previous simulation.

This was because there was no system notification in the simulation. Even if these three women stood opposite him, he could not tell that they were from an aristocratic family.

After asking for information, Han Zhao returned to the front yard and gave the women in the village some travel expenses. He let them decide if they wanted to stay or go. If they had a home, they could go home. If they were homeless, they could stay in the village.

After that, he got someone to report it to the officials and let them collect the corpses.

With Song Que's name, the government would give him some face.

When the news of him flattening the Flying Dragon Stockade alone spread, the other bandits would definitely not dare to provoke him.

As for the three Lian sisters, they chose to leave on their own.

Before leaving, Lian Chengxue even told Han Zhao that they were preparing to settle down in Nine Links Town and asked him to visit them when he had time, causing Lian Chengyu to roll her eyes.

After that, Han Zhao came to the entrance of the Flying Dragon Stockade and took out Qi Xings head from the grass. He rushed to Edge Sharpening Manor in Song Ques appearance and met Zhu Kangsheng alone. He personally handed Qi Xings head to him and completed the transaction.

Zhu Kangsheng knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. He brought the heads to the back of the manor to pay respects to his deceased wife and son.

After fulfilling his wish, Zhu Kangsheng took the Afterlife Sword and Extraction Saber and asked Han Zhao to go to Edge Sharpening Manor in three months to complete the last step of reforging the saber and sword.

Watching Zhu Kangsheng leave with his saber and sword with a smile on his face, Han Zhao felt a little upset.

He had known Zhu Kangsheng for a few years. Although they had a business relationship, even if they were not friends, they were close.

“Sigh… In this world, only by becoming strong… Han Zhao sighed and returned to Blackrock City..
