183 A Fool

"Youngmaster Jin, this..." Zin Shi did not know what to say. As someone who was stuck in the Emperor Realm, reaching a breakthrough in her cultivation was her greatest goal right now. After all, how could she become an Immortal Emperor, her greatest dream, if she could not advance in her own cultivation strength?

Now that Jin Rou had given her a very important thing, something that might help her increase her strength, how could she have the ability to decline this? She badly needed this kind of manual. After all, this manual was pretty expensive in the market.

"No need to hesitate, Zin Shi." Jin Rou said as he pushed the book into Zin Shi's palm, "I never needed this book so instead of rotting it inside my inventory ring, I would rather have you use this and increase your strength. But beware, although the manual inside is very fitted to you, you need to carefully comprehend the things. And I will assure you that your strength will be boosted by leaps and bounds."

"But this is expensive..." Zin Shi hesitated. Although she wanted this so bad, she could not just shamelessly grab and all.

"This is a mere decoration in my ring." Jin Rou chuckled and said, "How could this be expensive in any ways? Accept it. You need to increase your strength as soon as possible."

"I need to increase my strength as soon as possible?" Zin Shi was puzzled, "What does Youngmaster Jin mean?"

"Ah... that's nothing. Just enter seclusion and breakthrough first." Jin Rou dropped the topic. In order to forcefully awaken the unique blood inside Zin Shi's body, she needed to increase her strength first as it might cripple her cultivation for life if Jin Rou awakened her blood with her current strength.

Understanding that Jin Rou did not want to talk about it, she threw the thought at the back of her head though curious, and accepted the book, saying, "Thank you, Youngmaster Jin."

"No problem." Jin Rou smiled, "Should I walk you home?"

"Ah...?" Zin Shi dazed off for a moment, blushing after which and immediately shook her head, "No need... Youngmaster Jin. I know you need to take care of some things yourself, so I won't take your time any further."

This was her heart-felt answer. She could not inconvenience Jin Rou anymore as she could see the urgent matter in Jin Rou's eyes. Besides, Jin Rou said that he would be back. What's there to be worried about? Not to mention, Jin Rou was an Immortal Emperor in her assumption. She knew that he could stand shoulder to shoulder to other Immortal Emperors of this world.

Although her assumptions were a bit off since Jin Rou was too strong for this world, her assumption was still on the right track.

Both of them gave their short farewells to each other and Jin Rou used his aura to guard Zin Shi until she reached the Physicians Guild safely. After all, Jin Rou could not let anything happen to his new friend.

---

When Jin Rou had finally assured that Zin Shi arrived safely, the air around Jin Rou as his expression turned cold. He then said, "Come out now."

Jin Rou knew that someone was observing him, waiting for the right time to kill him silently. After all, he could feel an extreme bloodlust even it's kilometers away from him.

Seeing that there was no response at all, Jin Rou coldly laughed and said, "Not planning on coming out, Senior Liu?"

When the name 'Senior Liu' was said, Jin Rou felt a sudden fluctuation. It seemed that the person hiding trembled in shock.

After a short while, a figure finally appeared in Jin Rou's sight. This was the bald middle-aged man who he opposed in the Physician Guild, Senior Liu!

Senior Liu, with a very dark expression, said, "To think that I need to show up myself just to kill a brat like you."

"Well, it seems you've been bored since you aren't able to enter the market and do the business as soon as possible." Jin Rou said, "And kill me? If you have the capability, that is."

"Arrogant brat! Do you think you're already a big shot that you were able to enter the La Estance Market? Although I don't know what you did there inside, I knew that you just had a window shopping as the items there were a bit pricey, right?"

"Whatever." Jin Rou said in annoyance, "I really don't want to talk to you. And I really don't want our paths to cross again, but who would think that you'll deliver yourself in my doorstep?"

"Don't say it like I'm the fish on the chopping board here, brat." Senior Liu flicked his sleeves and said, "You are the one who's going to die here!"

"Well, then come." Jin Rou provoked Senior Liu, "Let me show you how weak you are in the world of cultivation."

"Audacious brat! There was no surviving person that offended me!" Senior Liu drew his Overlord Armament, Silver Needle.

"Take this, brat!" Senior Liu charged forward as he pushed the large needle forward in a very fast movement!

"Whoosh!" Jin Rou evaded the attack that aimed for his heart and took a step backward to gave way for further evasion paths.

"You brat got some good reflex." Senior Liu was a bit surprised but harrumphed in disdain, "But let's see how good you can evade this, Point Thousand Piercings!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A barrage of piercing attacks rained Jin Rou!

"Attacks that target vital spots?" Jin Rou smiled coldly, "Great technique, but still trash in front of me."

Whoosh whoosh!

Jin Rou managed to avoid the barrage of piercing attacks that were raining down to him. In fact, he was evading all the attacks effortlessly as if he was just taking a walk,

"Dammit! How could he avoid such attacks of mine in an effortless manner?!" Senior Liu's veins bulged as he was very frustrated. None of his attacks had managed to hit, so he started to agitate and Jin Rou and said, "Is running the only thing you're good at?! Come and attack!"

When Jin Rou heard this, he stopped his evasion with a coldexpression and held the needle of Senior Liu, and grabbed it without Senior Liu having the time to react, "Then let me."

Senior Liu's body trembled in fear as he realized something...

"Splark!" The Silver Needle was pierced right into Senior Liu's heart.
