Chapter 158 -121: Silver Medal, Adventure

“If I were your father, I would also send you to such a faraway place where even the emperor is out of reach. The emperor is not someone you can casually curse at, the consequence could be as grave as extermination of your family…”

Before Wu Tiejun could finish speaking, Fei Xinyu exploded: “I am your father, I am indeed your goddamn father!”

“Oh, you’re tough, if you’re so tough why were you scared shitless when I just glared at you? If you’re not scared, what did you mean by what you just said?”

“Me scared? What am I scared of? Old man like me could not be scared of those two old fools!”

Fei Xinyu was furious, “Speak, you just speak, say am I afraid of that old man He Bibiqu or that turtle Kong Gaohan? These two geezers are always against me, have you ever seen me back down even once, furrow my brows even once, blink even once? I despise them, they wouldn’t even be able to lay a finger on me with these old bones of mine. Flatter those two? Bullshit!”

Then, there was a sudden loud smack!

Fei Xinyu was jerked forward by the strike, his head landing in Wu Tiejun’s crotch.

Fei Xinyu trembled inside and turned his head in fear. He saw the gloomy faces of He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan.

Wu Tiejun coughed, refraining from kicking a man when he’s down, and continued to diligently work, staying focused and meticulous.

Finally entrapped this guy, what took Lord He so long, I had to direct the conversation for so long…

At this moment, He Bibiqu was extraordinarily angry, even Kong Gaohan was inflamed to his core.

Both of them were in a bad mood. Very bad.

He Bibiqu was upset because Bai Yihwen had escaped.

Kong Gaohan was upset because the divine physician wouldn’t appear in public, still slipping off even within arm’s reach.

Then, they heard Fei Xinyu’s endless insults.

This moment was truly…

“Fei Xinyu! Come here, let me see how hard your bones are, this old man hasn’t seen many unbreakable bones in his lifetime, let’s see if you will be an exception.” He Bibiqu growled ominously.

Kong Gaohan even bared his white teeth, gnashing them as he spoke, “I feel ashamed… Mr. Fei; today, let this old turtle examine Mr. Fei’s bones, while my limbs are still flexible…”

Fei Xinyu turned pale, feeling dizzy and confused, begging subconsciously, “Both of you, sirs… I… I’m just a nobody…”

“Even if you are a nobody, I will shatter you today!”

Kong Gaohan grabbed Fei Xinyu without another word, his face dark with anger as he strode off.

He Bibiqu however, stayed behind, his face a storm of rage, he started examining Wu Tiejun’s work.

For a while, Wu Tiejun didn’t dare to breathe loudly, he just kept his head down, working swiftly and diligently.

After a long time, it seemed as if He Bibiqu had finally calmed down? His breathing didn’t sound as harsh anymore…

Thus, Wu Tiejun gathered the courage to speak, “Honorable elder, please calm your anger… ”

“Shut your filthy mouth!”

He Bibiqu suddenly erupted, “Don’t think just because you let me punish Fei Xinyu in the past few days I haven’t realized your intentions! What, Lord Wu, the garrison hasn’t even left to take up its post yet, and you’ve already begun using the officials to grind your subordinates?! Impressive move of manipulation!”

“Your honor, your words are unfair!”

Wu Tiejun cried out in innocence, “This subordinate most certainly did not harbour such intentions!”

“Smack!”

He Bibiqu began a relentless beating regardless of Wu Tiejun’s protests, “I don’t care if you had those intentions or not, if I say you had, you have, even if you didn’t, you still did…”

…

Feng Yin finally left the tree in secret at the break of dawn…

What a night of extreme excitement!

When Feng Yin took out the Heavenly Judgment to check the ranking, he was in high spirits and filled with joy.

This time, I nailed it!

Sure enough, the ranking of Tender (Wenrou) skyrocketed, straight to the clouds in one step!

Tender, Silver rank, ranked forty-five thousand six hundred and seventy-eight!

Four five six seven eight?!

This ranking is really auspicious!

He even skipped the transition period of advancing from first Bronze to Silver rank, he directly advanced to Silver rank now, it’s a huge progress indeed.

“I am now only one step away from the Gold rank, within reach.”

Feng Yin’s face was filled with satisfaction and he returned home triumphantly, clutching Feng Ying’s little bottom.

…

In the capital of Qin country, in the Dark Guards division of Heavenly Judge.

“Strange!”

“This Tender’s ranking has been skyrocketing like a madman… Last night, I watched his rank jump from Bronze to Silver in the middle of the ranks within less than one hour.”

The guy who had been watching the leaderboard was red-eyed like a rabbit.

He was on duty last night and naturally focused on this part of the Great Qin. How could he miss this period of collective ranking upgrades.

Some jumped hundreds of places at once, others jumped tens of thousands of places just like that. They weren’t a rarity at all.

Of course, the most outrageous one was this Tender.

He remembered this guy only just reached the Bronze rank two or three days ago, and then he jumped to Silver rank.

This pace of ascension is simply reaching for the sky and attaining it in one step!

If he kept this pace, advancing to Gold rank is just a matter of time. It’s inevitable!

“This guy not only has potential but also luck!”

With this in mind, the on-duty Dark Guard thoroughly organized all related traces and achievements of the ‘gentle killer’.

Looking it all over again, it was astounding how this kid was unbelievably talented. Just a few days ago, he would have to engage in tough fights to kill Bronze Badge targets, seemingly wearing them out until they died.

But now he’s killing Silver Rank targets with just one slash, one fatal slash!

Well, it couldn’t even be considered a move, it was just… one slash!

He carefully created a separate case file for the Gentle Killer, ready to report it.

Once everything was compiled and nothing was missing, he thought for a moment and added a sentence at the end.

“Considering Gentle’s recent performances, he seems quite similar to Dong Xiaoyan; suspecting, this kid possesses enormous potential that’s close to Dong Xiaoyan’s level, please evaluate carefully at the peak.”

After that, he handed it in.

The other two targets were Xu the Third and Xu the Fourth.

After these two dudes suddenly broke out in a frenzied rush last time, they haven’t done anything up until now. They seemed to be marching in place all along, what in the world was going on?

Could it be that they were killed after the last mishap?

Could they really be that unlucky?

…

In a dense forest on a mountain.

Under a cliff.

Xu the Fourth, with a bitter look, followed Xu the Third: “Third Brother, where on earth are we? As the lead, you’ve brought us under a cliff, but surely, you don’t even know what country’s territory this is, right?”

Xu the Third solemnly said: “Don’t rush. As assassins of the Heavenly Judge, being able to execute our tasks wherever we go, why bother about which country’s territory it is? Just focus more on leveling up in the Heavenly Judgment.”

Xu the Fourth felt like crying: “So you really don’t know where we are. How could you be this nonchalant?!”

Xu the Third coughed once: “Why don’t you see the bright side? We managed to completely lure away the enemies for Physician Feng. Considering this alone, we should be thankful, self-preparing and praising, and full of glory. We didn’t let Physician Feng down when he saved us.”

A few days ago, these two had encountered Black Feather from Feiyi Hall in Great Yan and fled for their lives in panic.

They had no choice but to jump off a cliff when their escape led them to a dead-end on top of the mountain and pursuers were right behind them. Although it was risky, they managed to shake off their pursuers.

Still, they hadn’t expected the cliff to be this high.

Fortunately, the thick vines under the cliff allowed them to escape death, but they lost their bearings.

“So what do we do now?” Xu the Fourth was a bit lost.

He felt that he never took the right path when following his Third Brother and once again doubted: can it be that his third brother is genuinely directionally challenged?

“What do we do now? What can we do? The most critical thing at the moment is to find some food. And once the stomach is full, we can fight on…”

Xu the Third was also quite anxious inside but had to display an air of confidence to comfort his brother. He couldn’t let his brother feel hopeless!

“Hmm, there seems to be a cave up ahead. There must be wild creatures inside. We’ll go in, capture one, roast and eat it… We should be able to survive at least five or six days. We can calmly figure out what to do during this time.”

“I hope so…”

Xu the Fourth, full of hope, followed his brother towards the cave.

“Brother, do you know if we are moving east or west?”

“Why do you ask useless questions? We can’t see the sun, how do we distinguish directions? Why does it matter which way we go?! Ever heard of letting the horse run whichever way it wants, just follow the feeling?”

“…”

Once they reached the entrance of the cave.

Xu the Fourth sighed immediately: “Brother, take a look, does this place look like it has been inhabited by wild animals?”

The entrance of the cave was filled with dense spider webs.

If there were any creatures inside this place, that would indeed be weird!

“Don’t be disappointed too soon. The spider webs around the entrance mean that there haven’t been any humans around here for quite some time. Maybe there are some good things inside that will be a boon for us brothers. Looks like there’s been a blank period of at least several decades or even a century…”

Without any hesitation, Xu the Third pulled out his sword and started slaughtering the spiders, cutting down each spider that was as big as a human face, while carefully handling the spiders’ forelegs.

There is no other reason, it’s just because there’s meat there. If there really is nothing else to eat, they can gut the meat from inside and roast it.

Even if the taste of this spider isn’t great, it should provide some benefit.

One of the brothers was killing, while the other one was cleaning. Their teamwork was highly skilled.

“The meat on this spider’s leg should be non-toxic; we can count on it for today’s food.” As Xu the Third continued slashing, he spoke, excitement in his voice.

“Should be?” Xu the Fourth was taken aback: “Should be… What do you mean?”

“It just generally means that.”

“Seriously…”

Xu the Fourth suddenly felt ill; is it acceptable to describe the food we eat as ‘probably non-toxic’? Will I dare to touch it?

“What are you afraid of? Later, after I prepare it, I’ll eat first. It won’t poison you.”

As Xu the Third was fighting, he said, “Wait till I finish eating and confirm I am fine after an hour, then you can eat.”

“Why do you get to eat first?!”

“I’m the eldest, so of course I eat first. If you have the ability, why don’t you be the eldest?”

“You aren’t the eldest, you’re the third!”

“But I’m older than you, the fourth!”

After Xu the Third cut down the last big spider, he walked into the cave and suddenly exclaimed: “Holy crap!”

Xu the Fourth quickly rushed in: “What happened?”

“There’s a skeleton here… No, there are two skeletons…”
