God-Like Extraction Chapter 274 - The Truth! (1)

Chapter 274 The Truth! (1)

That’s right, the old man who tailed Shen Tang was only in the seventh-grade.

Shen Tang had even personally asked Zhang Zaiyue before.

Why did he take in such a low-grade martial artist as his follower?

At that time, Shen Tang had even mocked Zhang Zaiyue.

He took in anyone.

Now he understood that he ought to be the one being mocked.

The old man’s ability to conceal himself was too impressive.

So impressive that even he, a fourth-grade martial artist, could not detect it.

Zhang Zaiyue was lucky to have the old man as his follower.

“Huff… Huff…”

Shen Tang panted and looked up at the old man in Su Jingxing’s arms with difficulty. He questioned through gritted teeth, “Zhang Zaiyue told you to follow me, what are you monitoring?”

The old man kicked his feet and grabbed Su Jingxing’s arm with both hands. He kept struggling, but it was useless.

Shen Tang’s question was ignored.

While struggling, he suddenly stomped his feet and black blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. He was no longer breathing

“Killed himself?”

Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows and relaxed his grip. He allowed the old man’s corpse to slide to the ground and extracted a card.

“He’s d-dead?” Shen Qian’s face turned pale. “He committed s*icide by taking poison?”

“D*mn it!”

Shen Tang snarled indignantly, clenching his fists.

“You can die too.”

Su Jingxing lifted his leg and it landed heavily.

“No, no, no. You promised me that you would let me off once I spoke,” Shen Tang shouted in fear.

Bang!

With a dull thud, he stepped on Shen Tang’s back and he stopped breathing.

“Shen Qian was the one who promised you, not me.”

Su Jingxing extracted another card and squatted down to search Shen Tang’s corpse.

As expected, he found a circular ring on him.

Compared to the photos, the real thing was even more mysterious. The patterns on it were full of mysteries.

“Not too bad.”

Su Jingxing stood up with the circular ring in his hand and said coolly to the stunned Shen Qian, “Find the other ring as soon as possible.”

“Yes, yes.” Shen Qian snapped out of her daze and hurriedly nodded. “I’ll definitely find it as soon as possible.”

“Contact me immediately after you find it. Before that, find a place and hide yourself.”

With that, Su Jingxing picked up the two corpses and soared into the night sky, disappearing into the horizon. Although Shen Qian could still call the crematorium to deal with the corpses if he had left them behind, since this concerned the Shen Family in the capital, the crematorium would register the information. Once the Shen Family in the capital learned that Shen Tang had died in Qinghe City, there was a 99% chance that they would come to Qinghe City to cause trouble for Shen Qian.

Since he had agreed to the deal, Su Jingxing didn’t mind going all the way and helping to get rid of future troubles.

Shen Tang had secretly come to look for Shen Qian. Now, he was dead and the person monitoring him was also dead.

Apart from Zhang Zaiyue, no one knew that Shen Tang’s death was related to Shen Qian.

As long as he could find Zhang Zaiyue and kill him, all future troubles would be resolved.

Of course, it would be best if he could figure out Zhang Zaiyue’s motive for inducing Shen Tang.

Su Jingxing had never seen Zhang Zaiyue before. All he knew was his name and photo, which he had seen online.

He didn’t know how long it would take to search for Zhang Zaiyue blindly.

But that would be different if his location was deduced using the secret heavenly arts.

Although the Six Comets Records that Yue Dongliu intentionally left behind had been tampered, Su Jingxing had seen his memories of tampering with it. By avoiding the hidden branches, he could easily circulate the Six Comets Records.

He would use the Six Comets Records to divine Zhang Zaiyue’s hiding place before going to him.

That would save time and effort.

With this in mind, Su Jingxing returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. After burning the two corpses to ashes, he took out the two cards he had extracted and quickly read them.

He had extracted a Skill Card from Shen Tang.

It recorded a martial art called the Brilliant Sun Fist, which was of a very high grade.

Unsurprisingly, it was the ultimate technique of the Shen Family in the capital.

Su Jingxing looked at it for a while and put it away temporarily. He was in no hurry to unlock and absorb it.

Then there was the card from the old man, a Memory Card.

Su Jingxing unlocked it and read the contents. His expression froze.

The Memory Card contained 40 years of the old man’s memories!

This included how his family was in ruins, how he was homeless, how he was rescued by Zhang Zaiyue, and how he pledged his life and loyalty to Zhang Zaiyue. With Zhang Zaiyue’s support, he cultivated martial arts and became a martial artist. Among them, he was best at concealment and tracking.

For nearly 20 years, relying on this martial art, Fu Zhengquan, the old man, had helped Zhang Zai stalk dozens of people. Each time, he had successfully completed his mission.

As long as the target wasn’t an expert in the top ranks, Fu Zhengquan could follow and monitor them from afar without anyone noticing

This time, he was unlucky to have met Su Jingxing and was caught.

In the past, Fu Zhengquan had never failed when stalking a fourth-grade martial artist.

He followed Shen Tang to keep an eye on him meeting with other people.

Mainly Shen Qian!

Or rather, the circular rings in Shen Tang and Shen Qian’s possession.

Fu Zhengquan’s real target was the Shen Family’s circular rings.

This was also Zhang Zaiyue’s goal–to get the Shen Family’s two circular rings.

In fact, there were more than two such rings. There were a total of nine of them!

They had a nice name, the Nine Soul Rings.

According to what Fu Zhengquan had heard from Zhang Zaiyue, the Nine Soul Rings was a rare treasure that had disappeared for a thousand years. It was a powerful weapon in the mental and soul aspect.

By combining two rings, one could ignore the pressure of Martial Art True Intent.

The fusion of three rings could defeat Martial Art True Intent.

When four rings were combined, the explosive power could disintegrate Martial Art True Intent.

In short, the more rings there were, the stronger the combined power would be.

If one could gather all nine rings, the power he would release would be enough to defeat a Martial Sage!

This was what Fu Zhengquan had heard from Zhang Zaiyue. Whether it was true or false, there was no way to know.

The Nine Soul Rings had disappeared for too long Moreover, more than a thousand years ago, the nine rings had been separated. No one knew where they were.

Zhang Zaiyue had also learned of the existence of the Nine Soul Rings by chance and obtained one of them.

Then, he dug deeper and learned the whereabouts of the remaining eight bangles.

Two were with the Shen Family, two were with Si Wujiu from the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, and one was with the Li Family. The Li Family of Qinghe City!

That’s right. Si Wujiu’s motive in attacking the Li Family and putting on an act the last time was to lure out something.

Now, Su Jingxing knew what it was.

So Zhang Zai knew about Si Wujiu’s existence, and Si Wujiu also knew about Zhang Zaiyue’s existence.

No, to be precise, Si Wujiu knew that someone was plotting to get the Nine Soul Rings!

He didn’t know who it was, so he pretended to attack the Li Family.

What was the most important treasure of the Li Family?

It was not the Seven Calamities Wheel Mantra, but a circular ring that Emperor Yu had bestowed to Li Nongtang.

In order to unleash the full potential of the Nine Soul Rings, not a single one could be excluded.

Si Wujiu pretended to attack the Li Family because he wanted to send a message to the person who was scheming to get the Nine Soul Rings that he was also seizing them.

This was to force out the mastermind, to alert the enemy.

Yet.

Never in his wildest dreams would Si Wujiu expect this.

Although Zhang Zaiyue was shocked by him, he did not approach the Li Family or Si Wujiu. Instead, he induced Shen Tang to come to Qinghe City to look for Shen Qian.

What he was plotting to get weren’t the circular rings in the hands of the Li Family and Si Wujiu, but the double rings of the Shen Family!
