System: I Can Open Martial Arts Chests-Chapter 90 - 78: Play and Judgment

Dong Xingzhi carried Dong Yubai, and as soon as they were out of Chu Qing and the others’ sight, he started running wildly.

He pushed his Lightweight Technique to the limit, and after running for over twenty miles in one breath, he finally stumbled and fell into a heap with Dong Yubai due to lack of Inner Strength.

Dong Yubai’s face looked pale; having taken such a hard fall, he groaned in pain and gradually came to.

As he surveyed the surroundings, a face suddenly rushed towards him.

"Second Uncle..."

Initially startled, he was relieved to see that it was Dong Xingzhi in front of him.

Then, with a sobbing tone, he called out:

"Second Uncle... I, I hurt so much.

"That old man hacked me with a firewood axe.

"My chest, there’s something in my chest..."

Dong Xingzhi looked around; they were by a Clear Water Pond, deep and silent, with no one in sight.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief, gently patting Dong Yubai’s face:

"Yubai, don’t be afraid; your second uncle is here."

"The chest... the chest..."

Dong Yubai cried out:

"Second Uncle, what is going on with my chest... why does it hurt so much?"

"It’s nothing, it’s nothing, just that your second uncle put something in there."

Dong Xingzhi’s voice suddenly turned a bit sinister:

"Yubai, don’t be afraid; your second uncle will take it out soon."

"Wha... what?"

Dong Yubai was so shocked he almost forgot the pain:

"Second Uncle... what, what are you saying? What thing... how to take it out?"

"Just stick your hand into your wound and take it out from inside."

Dong Xingzhi comforted with a smile:

"Don’t worry, it’s very easy."

As he spoke, he seemed impatient, not bothering to untie the delicate cloth on the wound, nor caring about Dong Yubai’s condition, he forcefully tore it open.

Dong Yubai’s wound was already gruesome, having been hacked with a firewood axe by that old man.

This night, it hadn’t healed at all; instead, it looked even more horrific.

Dong Xingzhi ignored all this, and under Dong Yubai’s terrified gaze, directly thrust his hand into his wound.

"Ah!!!!"

Dong Yubai’s eyes were about to pop out of his head, unable to believe this was an act by his usually doting second uncle.

The pain made his whole body tremble, and he used all his strength to try to push Dong Xingzhi away.

However, Dong Xingzhi’s body was as solid as a rock; he couldn’t push him away at all; he could only plead:

"Second Uncle... stop... it hurts, it hurts so much!!"

"Hurts, doesn’t it?

"You’ll get used to it, I’ve already touched it, I’ve already touched it!!

"Luckily, we reached the secret chamber first, and luckily you were unconscious at the time.

"Fortunately, before they discovered it, I managed to stuff this thing into your wound.

"Otherwise, if they had found it, where would be the place for me, Dong Xingzhi?

"Here, it’s here!!"

Dong Xingzhi’s voice sounded somewhat mad. After groping for a long time, his face suddenly lit up with joy as he pulled something out sharply.

A handful of blood splashed out from Dong Yubai’s chest. Dong Yubai only struggled a couple of times before he stopped breathing.

Even until his death, his eyes were filled with pain and disbelief as he looked at Dong Xingzhi.

Dong Xingzhi didn’t even glance at him, only staring at the thing in his hand.

This was an Iron Scroll.

Because it was stained with blood, it appeared somewhat sinister.

Dong Xingzhi, as if obtaining a treasure, went to the edge of the Clear Water Pond and cleaned the bloodstains off the Iron Scroll.

Revealing the text inside.

On the far right side, four large characters read from top to bottom: [Nine Profound Divine Skill]!

"Nine Profound Divine Skill, it’s really the Nine Profound Divine Skill!!"

Dong Xingzhi’s hands holding the Iron Scroll were trembling:

"As the legend goes, the Nine Profound Divine Skill practiced by the Profound Emperor Shang Qiuyu!

"And it’s actually in the secret chamber of Qingxi Village!

"Hahaha, heaven is indeed blessing me, Dong Xingzhi!!

"The Dong Family, big brother, big sister-in-law... you all treated me like a dog, expecting me to obey your every command.

"Even a clueless second-generation heir like Dong Yubai, I had to serve carefully.

"But all of this is about to end... as long as I master the Nine Profound Divine Skill, a mere Dong Family can be wiped out in a snap!!

"What you all did to me, I will repay a hundredfold."

After saying this, his excited heart calmed slightly, and he turned back to see Dong Yubai’s corpse still by the Clear Water Pond.

He curled his lips:

"Yubai, Yubai, your only use in this life was to hide this Iron Scroll of the Nine Profound Divine Skill for me with your wound.

"You can be considered... to have died for a worthy cause."

After finishing speaking, he didn’t bother with the body, put away the Iron Scroll, determined the direction, and hurriedly left.

In this deep mountain, with countless birds and beasts, this body left here would soon be consumed by the wild animals.

He didn’t worry at all about it being discovered by the Dong Family.

But Dong Xingzhi didn’t know, just after he left, a figure suddenly appeared from behind a tree.

The figure was clad in black, wearing a mask of black and gold.

Under the left eye of the mask, there was a crookedly written character: Drama!

"Ruthless, ruthless, truly ruthless.

"Such a person, not joining my Celestial Evil Cult, is really a waste of talent."

The person’s voice was deep, with a hint of amusement:

"However, the Nine Profound Divine Skill? Go ahead and dream your impossible dreams, don’t you even think, if it were truly the Nine Profound Divine Skill, what virtue or capability could a broken village have to possess such a Secret Manual?

"Human nature is greedy, as the flowers confuse, blind to the mountain... hehe, I’m already looking forward to your reaction after you practice this skill."

With that, he turned his head to look in another direction.

After a brief thought, he murmured to himself:

"The matters on their side should be starting soon.
