Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World-Chapter 43: Great Gains, 300 Luck Points
Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Great Gains, 300 Luck Points
"No wonder the Aurora Swordsmanship at the Skilled Level is so powerful."
Seeing the results of his battle, Jiang Fan felt very satisfied.
If it were just Beginner Swordsmanship, facing Luo Zheng, who had trained hard for decades, it might not have ended so well.
If he wasn’t careful, some of them might have managed to escape.
Thus exposing his identity.
But now, in just an instant, he had killed Luo Zheng and the others, it was effortless.
This shows the power of the Aurora Swordsmanship at the Skilled Level.
If he could advance to Mastery Level, his combat strength would likely increase even more.
Of course, besides this, the merit of the Chengying Sword in his hand was significant.
Holding this Divine Blade, he was indeed like a tiger with wings.
It took little effort to pierce the enemy’s body.
This greatly enhanced his combat effectiveness.
After all, the enemy was unarmed, trying to fight him was undoubtedly a fool’s dream.
"These guys had so much silver taels on them?!"
"How much have they exploited from the people?"
At this moment, Jiang Fan searched the group and immediately found a package on Luo Zheng, containing a staggering five hundred and seventy-six taels.
Even if a fisherman’s family worked their whole life, they probably couldn’t earn so much.
If used only for buying food, and not squandered, this money would never run out.
Of course, if one practices martial arts, then this amount is nothing.
The consumed Treasure Medicine alone is worth an unknown amount.
So for the poor trying to succeed in martial arts, it’s almost impossible.
Only Noble Families can cultivate large numbers of Martial Artists generation after generation.
"With so much silver, there’s no need to go fishing anymore."
"Even sitting idly would last for a long time."
Jiang Fan felt very satisfied.
The saying goes that money is the courage of a hero, and in this era, it’s impossible to get by without money.
A penny crippled the hero.
With money on hand, no matter where you go, you can live well.
Fishing in Yunmeng Lake in the future would be for entertainment, not survival.
Even if he caught no fish, it wouldn’t matter.
Thud!
At this moment, a message emerged from the depths of Jiang Fan’s consciousness: "Forewarned is forearmed. Because of your vigilance, you ambushed the Dragon King Gang Elder Luo Zheng on the way, preemptively eliminating a great enemy and avoiding a Death Tribulation, earning an Eighth-Grade Opportunity and three hundred Luck Points."
Perceiving this message, Jiang Fan immediately felt a surge of joy, not only did he unexpectedly receive an Eighth-Grade Opportunity, but he also gained three hundred Luck Points.
Undoubtedly, slaying Luo Zheng from the Dragon King Gang brought him immense luck.
His decision was indeed correct.
If he hadn’t intercepted Luo Zheng, this villain would certainly become his great enemy in the future.
He might even bring a large number of Dragon King Gang elites to cause him trouble, trapping him in disaster.
But now it’s different.
Seizing the moment while the enemy hadn’t struck, he directly killed Luo Zheng, leaving them no chance for revenge.
And now, amidst the chaos and with the Red Eyebrow Army rampant, even if the Dragon King Gang knew of this, they were helpless, finding the perpetrator would be impossible.
With this thought, Jiang Fan lightly tapped the Opportunity light point.
Another message quickly surged: "Seven days later, at noon, head to a cave five hundred meters from Shoe Mountain Island in Yunmeng Lake to obtain an Eighth-Grade Opportunity."
Shoe Mountain Island?!
Jiang Fan naturally knew this island in Yunmeng Lake, after all, Yunmeng Lake spans eight hundred miles of waters and wetlands, its expansive lake surface holding various uninhabited islands.
Among them, Shoe Mountain Island was one such island, with an area of over ten thousand square meters, resembling an embroidered shoe, hence the fishermen named it Shoe Mountain Island.
The island had dense, lush forests and several small peaks.
Fishermen occasionally rested on this island as a temporary stopover.
He hadn’t expected an Eighth-Grade Opportunity to emerge here in seven days.
But as to what kind of opportunity it would be, he would find out in seven days.
Whoosh!
Jiang Fan didn’t plan to linger here, he took out the Corpse-Dissolving Water from his body, dripping a drop on each of Luo Zheng and the others’ corpses, turning them into pools of blood quickly.
After all, if these corpses remained, some forensic experts might predict some details about him from the wounds on the corpses.
To avoid leaving too many traces, it’s better to destroy the corpses and eliminate evidence.
After finishing all this, Jiang Fan quickly headed back to Osmanthus Village.
It’s likely that no one would know he had left Osmanthus Village, ambushed and killed Luo Zheng and the others along the way.
After Jiang Fan had left the area for some time, the dozen or so remaining Dragon King Gang members arrived belatedly.
Their status wasn’t high, so they couldn’t ride in carriages, they had to walk back to Tonghe County.
"Wait, isn’t this Lord Luo’s carriage?"
"Why is it here?"
"And it’s smashed to pieces, could bandits have attacked Lord Luo?"
Immediately, the group noticed the thoroughly shattered carriage, looking at each other, their eyes filled with fear.
After all, if the carriage was in such a state, one could imagine what happened to Lord Luo and the others.
"We can’t find the bodies of Lord Luo and the others, just a pool of blood on the ground."
"Damn, that’s the famed Corpse-Dissolving Water rumored in the martial world, Lord Luo and the others have surely been destroyed."
"No way, is it true? Corpse-Dissolving Water is incredibly rare, ordinary martial artists can’t access it, who the hell is capable of ambushing Lord Luo?"
"Honestly, whoever it is, they’re beyond what we can provoke."
Numerous Dragon King Gang members exchanged glances, each revealing their fear.
Because they were merely ordinary martial artists, at most, in the Skin Tempering Realm.
The opponent could even slay a Strong Sinews Realm Martial Artist.
So killing them would likely be an effortless task.
"Go, hurry up and leave."
"The killer might still be here."
"If they find us, we might be slaughtered too."
"Yeah, let’s quickly return to Tonghe County and report this to the Gang Leader, it’s beyond us to handle."
"Sigh, it’s such a turbulent time, the Dragon King Gang might really be doomed."
"Exactly, nothing’s happened yet, but there’s already signs of collapse."
"Looks like we also need to prepare in advance."
The Dragon King Gang members discussed among themselves, each filled with fear.
They didn’t dare to stay and investigate any clues.
If the killer was still around, they’d surely be finished.
Even if they actually found out who the killer was, they didn’t have the ability for revenge.
To be honest, they joined the Dragon King Gang for the benefits, not to sacrifice themselves.
If the Dragon King Gang truly faced a crisis, they’d definitely flee faster than anyone else.
