Chapter 55: The Ghost with a Thousand Faces
After looking Qin Zhongjue up and down and confirming that it was him, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Gong Zhan's mouth: "Wei Qingcheng died in the cellar of the Qin family, and the Qin family went to the empty building overnight, but I didn't expect you to leave?"
After a pause, Gong Zhan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly smiled: "Heh, the dantian was destroyed, as expected, it should be Wei Qingcheng's doing, no wonder the Qin family will fall into the ground." The person who cut off Wei Qingcheng's head should be you, the Qin family?"
As soon as these words came out, not only Qin Zhongjue, but even Xu Wazi on the side couldn't help but be startled. Now under Qin Jie's command, he and Qin Zhongjue have advanced and retreated together, if this matter is shaken out, it will be a big thing.
"So what?" Although Qin Zhongjue's heart has changed greatly now, and he is no longer full of arrogance in the past, he will never back down when the matter comes.
"No, it's just killing you. While speaking, Gong Zhan had already walked up to the three of them, and suddenly erupted without warning, and his finger was pitch black, and it was a very lethal gold mid-grade martial art Jin Ge Finger. And his target was not Qin Zhongjue, but Qin Jie, who had never spoken!
This scene came so suddenly that before Qin Zhongjue and Xu Wazi could react, the two had already exchanged hands.
Jin Ge refers to an extremely dangerous martial art, although it is limited by its arm span and the attack distance is extremely short, but its speed and power are extremely high. With the distance between Gong Zhan and Qin Jie at this moment, it was almost instantaneous, and it didn't give people any chance to react at all.
However, when he saw that Jin Gezhi was about to submerge into Qin Jie's body, Gong Zhan's body suddenly froze, and then in the blink of an eye, the blood veins around his body exploded, and he instantly became a bloody person.
"You—How is that possible?!" Gong Zhan fell to the ground after his death, still dead and still staring.
Not only the palace battle, but even Qin Zhongjue's gaze at Qin Jie at this moment was full of indescribable awe. From the beginning to the end, he always had his hands behind his back and had no intention of making a move, but such a city-level powerhouse who could use Jin Ge's finger died in front of him without warning, could this be the power of the Ten Thousand Things Domain?
Qin Jie didn't care about this, this was the first time he had tested the power of the Ten Thousand Things Domain, and the effect was quite good, within three zhang was basically his domain range, and he could kill people with the thought of blood control techniques. Of course, the target can only be below the city level, and if it is a higher level powerhouse, it is not so easy.
Under the surprised gaze of the two, Qin Jie squatted down and carefully examined the corpse of the palace battle, it was common practice to collect loot after killing, but Qin Jie was more concerned about the identity of this person.
Sure enough, Qin Jie found a trace of cattiness on the neck of the corpse, and Qin Zhongjue and the two of them were even more shocked when they saw this: "Human skin mask?!"
"Hmph, that's true!" Qin Jie snorted coldly and stood up.
In fact, this person's disguise technique combined with the human skin mask can be called flawless, not to mention him, even Qin Zhongjue, who has been dealing with the palace war for five or six years, has not been able to see the slightest abnormality, and if he is any one of them, he is afraid that he will be attacked by him. It's just that in front of the Realm of All Things, no matter how well this person's killing intent is hidden, there is nothing to hide.
However, Qin Jie frowned immediately, as soon as he came out of the mountain, he encountered such a thing, it seems that most of the truth about Wei Qingcheng's death has been ascertained, that Wei Xungui is the lord of Qingzhou Mansion, and there are really many people under his hands. Not to mention anything else, just for this person, although he was killed by Qin Jie's move, but in terms of strength, he is at the peak level of the city level, and it is difficult to distinguish between the true and false of the disguise technique, he is really a first-class assassin, and he can only blame him for his bad luck when he encounters a demon like Qin Jie!
"Wei Qingcheng's matter has been revealed, presumably the person sent by Wei Xun will not be the only one, you two will follow me to the Zhenwu Academy to practice today, so you can take care of it." Qin Jie turned his head to the two and said.
The two naturally had no objection to this, and immediately nodded yes.
It is worth mentioning that this assassin who looks like a palace battle is really not a small character, which can be seen from the loot he scavenged. A Sumeru ring, a bottle of gold-based middle-grade elixir Jin Xuandan, three high-grade soul-returning pills that can live and die and live human flesh and bones, a gold-based lower-grade Dao weapon Mingba knife, and in addition to some human skin masks and auxiliary equipment used for disguise. The total value of zero and zero is more than 150,000 taels, which is really a windfall.
Leaving the Jin Xuandan and the Badao that no one can use for the time being, Qin Jie divided the three life-saving Soul Returning Pills at critical moments, and then casually threw the Sumeru Ring to Xu Wazi, as for Qin Zhongjue, the eldest young man of the Qin family, there is naturally no shortage of Sumeru Rings at hand.
"Brother Xie Jie's reward!" Xu Wazi had such a valuable thing, not to mention the Sumeru ring, a single soul returning pill was worth at least more than 10,000 taels, and he couldn't help but be flattered and excited at this moment.
In contrast, Qin Zhongjue's expression was much calmer, but his gaze at Qin Jie still carried a trace of gratitude and admiration. It stands to reason that this is completely Qin Jie's own personal spoils, but he did not hesitate to divide it, and it is not a blessing to follow such an open-minded master.
Not to mention that Qin Jie and his entourage returned to the Zhenwu Academy, not long after a few people left, five people quietly appeared at Qin Jie's murder place, all of them were restrained, condensed but not revealed, and they were all rare and strong.
After seeing the death of the man on the ground, the five people couldn't help but gasp, and their faces showed horror: "Then where is Qin Jie sacred? Although this guy with a thousand faces is average, he can't prevent it with his disguise technique, and he is the thirteenth fierce person on the list of killers in Qingzhou Mansion, how could he die so miserably?"
The killer list, like other powerhouse rankings, is produced by Qianji Pavilion, and it is extremely reliable and authoritative.
"Maybe this guy has revealed some flaws, and he was caught by that Qin Jie, hmph, he actually wants to leave us alone and be greedy for this great achievement, this bastard should be damned!" one of them said angrily.
Several other people echoed the words, and although everyone was under Wei Xun's command, they were not in harmony with each other. After finding out the truth, the thousand-faced ghost dared to leave everyone behind and assassinate Qin Jie alone, which was because everyone was excluded. In terms of absolute strength, he is at the bottom of the crowd, and if he acts with everyone, he will definitely not even be able to drink a little soup, so he has no choice but to make a dangerous move, but he hit the iron plate headlong and dies.
"Okay, now that they have been startled, they will inevitably hide in the Zhenwu Courtyard, with Zhao Zhen's old immortal in charge, it will not be easy for us to kill him again. One of the bald men said in a deep voice, and a fierce momentum was suddenly released, and the other four people's eyelids jumped suddenly, and they didn't dare to continue talking nonsense.
