Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Chu Qing?”
“Yes, Chenxi. I have something to trouble you with.”
“What is it?”
Ye Chenxi was in the midst of a meeting, but she gently pressed her hand down, signaling for everyone to quiet down. The entire meeting room fell silent.
“I want a person’s legs. Be agile and don’t leave any traces.”
Ye Chenxi was taken aback. She had never witnessed such a ruthless side of Chu Qing before. Although being part of a family involved in underground activities, she was already accustomed to such things.
“Okay, send me that person’s information.”
Ye Chenxi did not ask further. She knew that Chu Qing must have his reasons for saying this. Moreover, it might not be convenient for Chu Qing to make a move. Now that Ye Qingmei had already given her an order, no matter what, she had to satisfy all of Chu Qing’s requests!
Ye Qingmei’s eyes were sharp. From the first time they met, she knew that this seemingly simple young man actually had endless energy. If she wanted to be on good terms with him, she would be most suitable to provide him with help in times of need!
“Thank you. Sorry to trouble you.”
“This is nothing…”
Ye Chenxi pouted. Seriously, why was this person still so polite to her?
He was so polite as if he was treating her like an outsider…
After departing from the Chu family, Chu Qinghe was in high spirits. The family had made multiple attempts to approach Chu Qing’s mother, but she had proven to be stubborn regardless of who approached her. This time, Chu Qinghe took the initiative and used Chu Qing as a means to intimidate them both. It had evidently yielded results!
Chu Qinghe knew that after she returned from this trip, the Chu family head would definitely remember her contribution!
She came to a bar, preparing to celebrate and relieve the fatigue of the past two days.
It was a little boring to drink alone, so Chu Qinghe called two waiters over. Anyway, after returning home, her status within the family would rise and she would earn a lot more money!
“Why aren’t you drinking?”
Chu Qinghe was drunk. Her eyes were blurry as she looked at the two young men.
The quality of this bar is so impressive. 1 randomly picked two waiters and they are so handsome.
Not only that, but the two young men were also extremely good at drinking. Chu Qinghe had been ordering wine and wanted to get them drunk. She already had plans to sleep with them for the night.
“Hehe, have one more glass. Just one more and I’ll take off my shirt.”
One of the young men smiled charmingly and brought a glass of red wine to Chu Qinghe’s mouth.
Chu Qinghe smiled wretchedly. She picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
“Alright, it’s time for you to take off your clothes…”
Chu Qinghe smirked and lunged toward him, intending to rip his clothes apart. However, the young man swiftly evaded with a startled cry. Just then, another waiter approached.
“Drink this and 1’11 play with you.”
“I want the two of you to play with me tonight. Isn’t it just money? It’s nothing to me!”
Glass after glass, Chu Qinghe became increasingly intoxicated until she eventually collapsed onto the table. Her plump body hit the table with a thud, causing it to tremble violently.
At this moment, disgust appeared on the faces of the two waiters.
A woman in gorgeous clothes appeared. Looking at the person in front of her, she took out her phone and dialed a number.
“Sis Ye, it’s all settled. Do you only want one leg?”
“Yes.”
Ye Chenxi paused and said, “Wait a minute, 1’11 have a kidney too.”
“Got it.”
The woman hung up the phone respectfully. Then, she clapped her hands and called two burly women over.
“This person has no money, yet she dares to consume so much free alcohol. Cut off her kidneys, break one of her legs, and throw her onto the street!”
“Yes!”
The two burly women nodded and carried the woman down.
Chu Qing sat cross-legged on the bed and was thinking hard.
He intended to produce a batch of spirit talismans for sale. It wasn’t that they were challenging to create, but he pondered over what materials to use for their production.
Creating a spirit talisman was a simple task. It couldn’t even be considered a full-fledged spiritual artifact. It was merely a small item capable of withstanding a few attacks, hence its classification as a spirit talisman.
In simple terms, Chu Qing had imbued a particular object with his spell. By channeling his internal energy, he could activate and unleash the spell. Chu Qing had created numerous such items in his previous life, but the dilemma lay in deciding what he wanted to infuse them with.
A stone? Forget it, it’s a little too ordinary.
A necklace? Hmm… It’s a little expensive to make, and there is nothing special about it.
At that moment, Chu Qing’s eyes fell upon the bed, specifically on a peach wood sword ornament placed at the head. It was a talisman his parents had gifted him a few years ago. As he observed the sword’s shape, an idea suddenly sparked in Chu Qing’s mind.
As a sword immortal, 1’11 make the sword my distinctive feature. All the spirit talismans in this batch will be crafted using a sword.
With the idea in mind, Chu Qing decided to work on it as he went along. Time was running short, as the auction was only a few days away. He needed to accelerate his progress!
Chu Qing leaped out of the window and remembered that there was a temple not far from his house. He had visited it once with his sister, and the surroundings were quite picturesque.
He hurriedly went to purchase wooden swords, talismans, and red ropes. Chu Qing couldn’t help but chuckle at himself. He wondered why he now resembled a swindler with these items in hand..
