System: I Can Open Martial Arts Chests-Chapter 59: Unerring Shot!

Wu Qingshan also saw the small Willow Leaf Flying Saber in Chu Qing’s hand.

He looked a bit odd...

"Just now, I saw your sword strike, fast as lightning.

"Now you’re using a saber instead of a sword?"

Wu Qingshan’s voice was filled with surprise.

Chu Qing chuckled:

"Recently, I’ve learned a remarkable Martial Arts skill. The young lady said your central pillar is impervious, but who knows if it can withstand my unfailing Flying Saber!"

"Remarkable Martial Arts? Unfailing!?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingshan couldn’t help but laugh loudly:

"Fine, I would like to see how your small Flying Saber can be unfailing!?"

Wu Qianhuan felt a bit toothache, utterly unsure about what kind of mystery Chu Qing was pulling?

This kind of Willow Leaf Flying Saber is everywhere, to use it against someone like Wu Qingshan, is simply playing a game!

However, she didn’t interrupt; despite his approach being playful, this person has always been profound and unfathomable, perhaps there is some hidden mystery in this Flying Saber.

Or maybe it’s been poisoned? Seal the throat upon seeing blood?

Or this Flying Saber is just a cover... the aim is to shield that Fast Sword strike!?

As various thoughts churned in her mind, she suddenly felt that today’s scene seemed familiar...

Wasn’t it like this when Xin Youhen stood before them?

The same determined certainty?

Yet, ultimately, he was cut by Night Emperor with a single sword!

Thinking of this, she was already prepared; actually, teaming up with Chu Qing to deal with Wu Qingshan was already a guaranteed victory.

Wu Qingshan had limited knowledge about Chu Qing; he only knew that Chu Qing had killed the Iron Horse Seven Thieves but didn’t know Xin Youhen also died at Chu Qing’s hand.

Moreover, he didn’t know that Tang Xi, who practiced Heaven-Hating Demon Skill, and Cheng Sihai, the leader of Divine Sand Gang, were all defeated by Chu Qing.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare act so boldly.

Since Chu Qing wants to play, let him play.

Even if anything goes wrong, I can cover for it... the Flying Saber is difficult to shield; I’ll provide the cover.

Always able to secure an opportunity for Chu Qing to strike.

Thoughts converged in a flash, and Chu Qing raised his eyes to look at Wu Qingshan:

"Then... watch closely."

Five fingers flicked, the Flying Saber shot like a rainbow!

Wu Qingshan was already fully prepared.

He and Xin Youhen were not the same... Xin Youhen’s arrogance was inherent, whereas Wu Qingshan was more cautious.

Therefore, despite verbally saying ’I want to see’, he didn’t intend to give Chu Qing any chance.

The central pillar had long been deployed, just waiting for the Flying Saber to come, to easily deflect it.

However... at this moment, the Flying Saber disappeared from view.

Missed?

Is his Flying Saber... just this?

Wu Qingshan wanted to laugh and open his mouth to speak... but when he opened his mouth, the sound that came out was a ’ho ho’ rasping.

His smile froze on his face, reaching out to touch his throat.

Instead of feeling a familiar neck, he felt a blade.

A Flying Saber!

All his laughter turned into horror.

How is this possible?

The inner breath from his central pillar was continually circulating, how could this saber break through his inner breath and land on his neck?

Many questions... yet none could be answered.

So much so, that as his body fell to the ground, life fading away, until his death, he couldn’t comprehend.

How he got stabbed by the saber?

Wu Qianhuan was equally puzzled.

She watched Chu Qing strike, watched the sudden appearance of that Flying Saber on Wu Qingshan’s throat.

She clearly saw it, yet didn’t know how it was done.

Involuntarily, she touched her own throat, Chu Qing’s voice came to her ears:

"It’s him who got killed, not you, why are you touching your neck?

"As of now, no one has offered any money to buy your life."

"...If someone offered money to buy my life, would you kill me?"

Wu Qianhuan, for some unknown reason, abruptly asked such a question.

Chu Qing was walking forward, retrieving the Flying Saber from Wu Qingshan’s throat.

He looked back at Wu Qianhuan in amazement upon hearing the question.

After a moment of contemplation, he said:

"Though you and I are hardly friends, you have been my long-time customer."

"So?"

Wu Qianhuan looked at Chu Qing with slight excitement.

"The price must be increased."

Chu Qing’s voice came out cheerfully.

"..."

Wu Qianhuan’s forehead twitched with veins:

"How about making a deal with you?"

"Oh?"

Chu Qing was rummaging through Wu Qingshan’s body while asking casually:

"What’s the deal? Tell me about it."

"If someone approaches you to buy my life, regardless of the price they offer, I’ll double it for you, then you help me kill them."

Wu Qianhuan took a step closer, looking at Chu Qing.

Chu Qing was taken aback, was this girl really worried that he would kill her?

But on second thought, this seemed not surprisingly strange.

After all, she didn’t know who he truly was...

Thinking of this, he shook his head:

"Alright, young lady Wu’s promise is golden, and I naturally believe it.

"But aren’t you worried, someday, even if there’s no such person, I might come to demand money from you?

"You know, I do love money very much."

"Fine, come and demand then! How much do you want!?"

Wu Qianhuan stepped forward again, staring intensely at Chu Qing.

Chu Qing felt somewhat awkward at her gaze, scratching his head, he said:

"A gentleman loves money, but he gets it through proper means..."

Wu Qianhuan didn’t speak, just pondered for a moment and asked:

"Do you truly love money?"

"Is there any doubt?"

Chu Qing, just at this moment, pulled out a money pouch from Wu Qingshan’s embrace, eagerly opening it, took out the gold and silver inside, and unceremoniously pocketed them.

But... when you killed Iron Horse Seven Thieves, you clearly said you’d take all the money and possessions from the tea shopkeeper.

Yet, until now, you haven’t taken a single penny!

Wu Qianhuan observed Chu Qing, her mind complex.

Since she started suspecting the person in front, she began to investigate.

Given he is an assassin, killing the Iron Horse Seven Thieves couldn’t just be a knight errant aiding in an injustice.

And with the influence of Celestial Dance City, investigating matters around the tea shop wasn’t difficult.

The tea shopkeeper made no efforts to conceal.

He even proactively mentioned the ’Night Emperor’ person, calling him a hero of the martial world.

Though it’s unclear why he portrays himself as an assassin, yet post-event he took nothing.

Whenever mentioned, he was full of gratitude and tears.

Sufficiently proving that this person is definitely not as money-hungry as he appears.

He himself is covered in a layer of falseness.

Wu Qianhuan was aware but chose not to expose it.

...

...

Just as Chu Qing was busy rummaging through Wu Qingshan’s belongings, inside the dungeon of Celestial Dance City.

Liu Dafu, with a swollen face, curled up in the cell, suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He sat up, listened attentively for a moment:

"It’s here."

"What’s here?"

The scarred man, hearing his words, was instantly furious, stepping forward to kick Liu Dafu’s head fiercely.

Unexpectedly, the once pliant Liu Dafu moved slightly, grabbing hold of the man’s ankle.

With a slight chuckle, a streak of blood-colored glow flickered between Liu Dafu’s fingers...
