Chapter 3 - Treasure

Lin Feng took twenty-seven taels of silver from under little leader Hua Ye's bed and went straight home.

When the little leader Hua Ye died, the Tiger Gang members around the market would carry out a thorough investigation. But Lin Feng was sure that the people from Tiger Gang would never suspect a small cultivator of killing the small leader Hua Ye.

Moreover, Lin Feng was also prepared to leave this area after finding the Bone Grass.

This area is too small, even the small leader Hua Ye who has ruled the Market for eight years can only save more than twenty taels of silver. If Lin Feng wants to quickly improve his strength, then the market area here can't satisfy him at all!

"Refill twenty-five taels of silver!"

[Reload successfully, the current balance is filled with 20 points.]

*Refill points will be absorbed 20% by artifacts of the book of life and death*

[Would you like to activate the ability of the book of life and death now? It costs 10 points to use once. ]

"Yes, activate!"

[At the age of eighteen, you killed the little leader Tiger Gang Hua Ye in the market, everyone was under suspicion in the Market, and Tiger Gang sent two Huotian warriors to investigate but there were no leads, and the matter was done in a hurry.]

[On the ninth day, you came to an island near Silver Lake, and you found three bone grasses.]

[You started using bone grass to increase your strength.]

[One month later, you came to Wu City and served as a guard captain in the Zhen Family at six taels of silver per month.]

[At thirty-one, you trained diligently in Wu City, but due to the limitation of the body owner's talent, you have not been able to break through to the next stage.]

[Forty-five years, the third generation of the Zen family killed Shu Wanshan's grandson the peak-stage Huotian warrior. Shu Wanshan furiously came to the Zhen Family's territory, he killed anyone within sight of him. You were found at the back door of the Zen family, and you were killed by Shu Wanshan! ]

[You are dead!]

[At the end of the life and death experience, you can save one of them.]

[One, forty-five-year-old cultivation realm.]

[Second, forty-five years of combat experience cultivation.]

'Damn, even I can't cultivate in peace!'

Lin Feng frowned slightly. The world that always respects strength is like this. Even if you don't go out looking for trouble, trouble will also come to us without cause.

"Select one!"

As Lin Feng began to make his choice without hesitation, force qi and blood were injected into his Dantian, rapidly flowing throughout his body.

The internal strength also began to strengthen.

"Phew!"

"Sure enough, even if I don't increase my realm, the moment I choose 'one' then the strength within my body will still increase!" Lin Feng muttered under his breath.

"No matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat, as long as I have enough money, I can raise my strength to the peak of the mortal warrior, and then start looking for the traces of the cultivators!"

"No matter how powerful martial arts are, that is not my dream, only immortality can satisfy my lust!"

After coming back to life and coming to the world of cultivation, how could Lin Feng be willing to turn into an old bone after decades?

"Let's activate again!"

[The ability of the book of life and death activated!]

[Three months later, you changed your previous choice and worked as a teacher in the Martial Arts Hall. You will earn eight taels of silver a month.]

[At thirty-nine, you have been successfully promoted to mid-stage Huotian Martial Artist, and your monthly salary in the Martial Arts Hall has also increased to twenty-two taels of silver a month]

[Forty-three years, there was news of the legacy of the Xuantian martial artist on a small isolated island in the South Bay of Silver Lake, and all kinds of Masters flocked to him, and you also went out to seek opportunities. But unfortunately, when you got there, you were seriously injured and ran away from Hua Xun, the true leader of the Tiger Gang]

[You returned to Wu City fearing that Tiger Gang would come looking for trouble, and fled overnight.]

[At sixty-five, you have hidden injuries and are gravely ill.]

[Sixty-eight years, you are dead! ]

[At the end of the life and death experience, you can save one of them.]

[One, sixty-eight-year-old cultivation realm.]

[Second, combat experience sixty-eight-year-old cultivation.]

'There is a Xuantian martial artist's inheritance in the Silver Lake… I don't know whether it can open up now or have to wait tens of years later!'

'Moreover, there seems to be something wrong with the old geezer's Raishan Fist Martial Art.

Lin Feng couldn't help but frown, he learned Raishan Fist for the first time in life and death experience. In his previous experience, Lin Feng still clearly remembered that there was a dark wound too even though he had not fought against a strong enemy. this time also in his sixties, hidden injuries started to resurface.

It was very likely that after his cultivation advanced to the mid-stage Huotian, that hidden injury had managed to be pushed back until he was 60 before being activated again.

“But fortunately this time I have managed to step into the intermediate stage Huotian martial artist!”

"I choose one!"

The moment Lin Feng finished speaking, a powerful qi and blood force were injected into his body, and the meridians in his body instantly changed subtly to become thicker. The internal strength in Lin Feng's body was three times more than before.

"Finally I have strength strong enough to explore the outer regions! But I wonder, what is the highest level in Wu city right now?" Lin Feng muttered under his breath.

Then Lin Feng looked at the bamboo bed that had been torn apart for a long time, and a wry smile appeared on his face.

Lin Feng found a wooden plank and placed it on the two chairs that were knocked down, spreading the blanket before lying down and closing his eyes.

......

On the other hand,

The two members under little leader Hua Ye who didn't come to drink yesterday started walking towards Hua Ye's house. Upon arrival, the two of them saw a bloody scene in the house.

"!"

"Boss Hua Ye is dead!"

"The other members are also dead!"

The two of them pushed open the door and saw corpses strewn abysmally in the living room. The two of them immediately got scared and fled to the market.

By the time they arrived at the market and saw the bustling situation around them, the two of them could only heave a sigh of relief.

"Boss Hua Ye and the others are dead!"

"Fast!"

“Hurry up and report this information to the true leader!”

Only then did the two members react and rush towards the Tiger Gang Main Hall.

......

At this time, there were already many people in the Market. They also heard the screams of the two members just now.

"Boss Hua Ye is dead?"

Some people felt suspicious about the uncertain news.

"Today is the day to pay trade taxes right? What if...?"

"It's useless, even if Hua Ye's boss is dead, Tiger Gang will also send others to manage the market, this month's tax money... We still can't save it!" There was an old merchant who smoked a dry branch cigarette and said with a sad face.

The old merchant had lived in Silver Lake since he was a teenager, and he had paid taxes to the Tiger Gang every month. At least he has also been paying taxes for nearly thirty years.

The merchants around him couldn't help but fall silent, because what the old merchant had said was a cruel reality that no one had been able to change for many years.

......

It had been more than two hours since Hua Ye's surviving underlings went to report to the main hall of Tiger Gang.

After a while, two Tiger Gang martial artists riding on black horses came over, galloping all the way to boss Hua Ye's residence.

The two of them stopped and dismounted.

They come to the page quickly.

"These are all fatal blows, only Hua Ye is a little tortured." One of them said in a cautious tone.

"At least this person's strength is only the Huotian martial artist, this shouldn't be a rival of the Tiger Gang." The other middle-aged warriors scanned the courtyard with great interest. "Hua Ye is nothing in our Tiger Gang, if the enemy wants to target Tiger Gang, then that person would not choose to attack a mortal like Hua Ye. Most likely, that person has enmity with Hua Ye!"

"According to Hua Ye's nature, he shouldn't dare to offend an unknown Huotian martial artist!"

"Send someone else to replace Hua Ye's status, if there is still an accident, let the true leader handle it."

"Yes!"

The two directly resolved the matter, then got back on the dark horse and left directly.

In just a few hours, a new minor leader of the Tiger Gang was again stationed at the Market.

......

Early in the morning, Lin Feng was currently driving the boat around Silver Lake's South Bay.

Silver Lake stretches for more than a thousand miles, there are dozens of large and small islands nearby. Those are all isolated islands, and normally no one lands on them.

"Looks like I'll have to look for them one by one, if I don't find them before the thunderstorm comes within seven days, then I can only give up!"

Lin Feng stepped on the fishing boat lightly under his feet and landed on a deserted island.

For three days straight, Lin Feng searched more than a dozen remote islands non-stop but did not find the legacy of the Xuantian martial artist written in the book of life and death.

Until the fourth day, in a hidden cave in the south of a very small deserted island, Lin Feng finally saw a skeleton with a faint golden light, and a small box was placed next to the mysterious skeleton.

Lin Feng's eyes showed excitement and muttered under his breath, “I finally found a valuable item!”
