How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!-Chapter 210 The White Clothed King’s Guess

The song gradually faded into silence.

The bamboo raft drifted away, becoming indistinct.

Lin Xiaosu quietly watched the thin mist rising over the Jiang River, and finally, he slowly turned back.

Suddenly, he was slightly startled...

Someone was sitting on the hillside ahead.

The wind blew, brushing across his forehead, revealing a blood-colored scar.

Bloodscar King.

Bloodscar King chuckled, "I only just arrived and didn’t see your interaction with that girl. I definitely wouldn’t be like Blue Demon, using my imagination and wasting time verifying your amorous adventures."

Lin Xiaosu’s expression turned a bit sour, "Tell me, are all you Qianlong Kings really so bored you have nothing better to do than track my movements?"

Bloodscar King replied, "You bought your ticket under your real name, which means your travel itinerary wasn’t confidential. So, even if we tracked you, it doesn’t mean we were out of line."

"Fair enough!" Lin Xiaosu said, "So, are you here for something important?"

"I need your help to find someone."

"Who?"

Though he asked, Lin Xiaosu already had the answer. When he had disguised himself as Bloodscar King and traded information with Blue Demon, she had let slip a name...

"I guess you already know. Because when you and Blue Demon Jiangcheng tricked each other, she let it slip," Bloodscar said.

"What do you mean ’tricked each other in Jiangcheng’? Two master disguise artists dueling it out, and you describe it in such a dismissive way?" Lin Xiaosu glared at him.

Bloodscar King burst into hearty laughter.

Lin Xiaosu also laughed, "White clothed King, right?"

Bloodscar nodded, "Of course!"

"I heard he appeared at the end of my last trip to Fusang!"

"Yes, he made a move on you... but you didn’t engage physically, it was more of a long-distance exchange," Bloodscar stared into his eyes. "Now it’s your turn. Are you willing to strike back?"

"White clothed King, quite formidable in rank, I actually don’t know much about him!" Lin Xiaosu said.

"As long as you’re willing, what I know is what you will know!" Bloodscar said. "Additionally, this mission is also a Qianlong mission. Blue Demon and I have the same authority, and the reward for completing the mission is the same, 200,000."

"What are the criteria for completing the mission? Finding this person or killing this person?" Lin Xiaosu asked.

"Of course, just finding this person! As for killing him... that’s not a regular mission, that’s an SSS-level mission!"

SSS-level missions, those are Heavenly King level tasks.

The rewards are in the millions.

Bloodscar knew Lin Xiaosu’s level of cultivation; such missions could only be handled by Heavenly Kings, nothing to do with Lin Xiaosu. Thus, Lin Xiaosu’s task was just to locate the person.

"Alright, tell me what you know about White clothed King."

Bloodscar’s finger lifted slightly, and a flying car descended from the sky.

"Come on, get in the car. I’ll take you to Fengcheng, you can watch his entire dossier along the way..."

The last time, Blue Demon drove him from the Southern Border to Fengcheng.

This time it was even fancier, with Bloodscar King personally driving a flying car.

The drive would take two days and a night.

The flying car would only take five hours.

The flying car ascended into the sky, and simultaneously, a layer of streaming light covered the glass windows on all four sides. Within the streaming light were countless event lines...

Yes, only event lines.

White clothed King, his whereabouts were elusive.

His background was a mystery.

His appearance was unknown.

People didn’t even know if he was male or female, old or young.

Because whenever he appeared before others, he wore a silver mask, had no fixed entourage, coming and going without leaving a trace.

Despite his extremely secretive movements, he had done a lot of things.

And almost everything he did hit Qianlong right where it hurts...

Over thirty of Qianlong’s gold medals had died at his hands.

Thirteen Western World strongholds, painstakingly established by Qianlong, had been personally obliterated by him.

Yes, obliterated!

Anyone related to those strongholds was killed without mercy, including women and children.

Apart from those directly related to Qianlong, there were also numerous scientists and engineers.

It seemed that as long as someone was beneficial to Daxia Country, he would kill them.

This even included some political leaders from Western countries, those who were more friendly to Daxia Country were also his targets for slaughter...

In summary, he harbored a perverse hatred for Daxia Country...

"These event lines span a full twelve years, the most recent one was six months ago. There’s not much to go on in terms of finding him, is there anything more recent?" Lin Xiaosu scanned everything around them; the data inside was almost fully imprinted in his mind at a glance.

The time point he was most focused on had given him a blow.

Because the events’ timing all exceeded the scope of Time Retrospection, even if he went to the places the White clothed King had been now, it would be impossible to locate him through Time Retrospection.

So he needed an event within the past month.

And he also needed the precise location of the White clothed King when that event occurred.

"Since the time he appeared in Fusang, there’s been no news," Bloodscar said. "No more recent event clues."

Fusang, that was in July. It was now late October.

Three months!

Time Retrospection was completely useless.

Although Lin Xiaosu hadn’t tested how far back his Time Retrospection could go recently, he guessed it couldn’t extend beyond a month.

No way it could reach three months.

Bloodscar said, "Although there are no incident lines, his cultivation technique is very unique. Is there any way to start from there?"

"Cultivation technique?" Lin Xiaosu’s eyes lit up slightly, "What kind of special technique?"

"He can kill with Flying Flower Picking Leaves! Such cultivation is extremely rare in contemporary Ancient Martial cultivation... and he can turn an Ice Flower into an ultimate lethal weapon with high-speed rotation, I’ve only seen him do it!"

"Flying Flower Picking Leaves... Ice Flower spinning at high speed turning into an ultimate weapon..." Lin Xiaosu’s eyes were gleaming, "Have you seen this high-speed spinning Ice Flower yourself?"

Bloodscar’s expression turned somewhat strange, he slowly raised a finger and pointed to his own forehead, "This scar was caused by that Ice Flower, I used Dragon Scale to block it, Dragon Scale got broken, the remaining Ice Flower hit my forehead, and it became the shameful imprint of me, a Heavenly King of this generation!"

Lin Xiaosu stared at the scar dazedly...

An Ice Flower that shattered Dragon Scale!

Injured this great Heavenly King!

What kind of Ice Flower was that?

He gently closed his eyes, "I can almost imagine the power of this Ice Flower, amidst a blizzard, an Ice Flower like a raging dragon, sweeping across, engulfing all the snow along the way, roaring in, incredibly fierce and sharp, is it that kind of scene?"

"No! You’re wrong! Just the opposite!" Bloodscar said, "If that Ice Flower was as you described, it wouldn’t have hurt me! In fact, when this Ice Flower flew out, it didn’t disturb a single snowflake around it!"

Lin Xiaosu’s eyes snapped open...

A peculiar light shone from his eyes...

"You thinking of something? Do you know this kind of cultivation technique?"

Bloodscar’s heart gave a sudden thump...

Lin Xiaosu said, "In the Northwest, I once saw someone!"

"What kind of person?"

"With a blade of grass in hand, it flew out skimming over the grass, not stirring the surrounding grass even a bit!" Lin Xiaosu said, "But that very Grass Arrow tore apart a glacier wolf with ease."

"Tore apart?" Bloodscar trembled all over.

"Yes, the usual Flying Flower Picking Leaves could at best pierce through the wolf’s body, but this one tore apart, the entire body, except for a wolf’s head, everything else was just fragments!"

"This person... who was it?" Bloodscar’s eyes shone brightly.

He was almost certain that this person and the White clothed King practiced the same cultivation technique.

He cultivated in Ancient Martial arts, he was a legendary King of the Qianlong, and he had been exposed to many Martial Arts Classics. The Flying Flower Picking Leaves was not rare to him, he could do it himself, but the Ice Flower of his ultimate opponent was not the ordinary kind.

This was a highly enigmatic spinning dark energy.

Calling it dark energy because when it was unleashed, there was no sound, it didn’t disturb the surroundings.

The spinning fully manifested when it reached the target, Bloodscar knew very well the power of that spin, the scar on his forehead constantly reminding him.

He had never heard of any Ancient Martial True Qi with such high-speed rotating dark energy.

And from Lin Xiaosu’s description, this was precisely the most mysterious and most formidable trump card of the White clothed King.

Could it be that the solution was right under his nose, without any effort?

Lin Xiaosu said, "Professor Xiang Yixiu from the Biology Department of Nanjiang University, search for him!"

Bloodscar activated his Dragon Eye, a gleam seemed to pass through his eyes... freēnovelkiss.com

His Dragon Eye was different from Chang Ye and the others.

His Dragon Eye was invisible.

"Search! Biology professor of Nanjiang University, Xiang Yixiu..."

The command was issued, and the projections around the flying car were simultaneously replaced with new search images...

Xiang Yixiu, dressed in white, standing on a mountain peak, this was his photograph.

Below was his profile, with deep expertise in biology, especially in various animals, being an authoritative expert in zoology...

There were many academic achievements...

He had published a lot of papers...

But it was all limited to academia.

There was no introduction to his cultivation, in the eyes of the world, he was just an academic professor devoted to his studies.

Bloodscar slowly lowered his head, staring at Lin Xiaosu, "This professor doesn’t like staying in laboratories or classrooms, he prefers to travel the world."

"Exactly!" Lin Xiaosu said.

"He is also a visiting professor at Princeton University in Yingyu Country, holding passports from almost all Western countries."

"Not just Princeton University, he is also a visiting professor at Ying Lun University, and even an honorary citizen of Mans Town in the United Kingdom, simply because he once resolved an Exotic Beast crisis for Mans Town."

Bloodscar took a deep breath, "In this photo, he is wearing white clothes. When you saw him, what was he wearing?"

"Coincidentally... he was also dressed in white!" Lin Xiaosu said.

Bloodscar let out a long breath, "Same cultivation technique, the convenience of global travel, and a fondness for white clothing... such a coincidence?"

"What do you think?" Lin Xiaosu only provided the information, not judgments.

Bloodscar caught the ball he had kicked and changed the perspective, "Then give me an idea, what should I do?"

Lin Xiaosu spoke directly, "Intercept him in a small grove in the dead of night and kill him directly!"

’When Chang Ye and Blue Demon go on missions with you, you always plan meticulously for them, but when it’s my turn, you’re so nonchalant...’ Bloodscar glared at him. "Is it because of gender differences? Or because the money hasn’t been credited yet, and you’re not eager to plan?"

Lin Xiaosu smiled, "What I said is indeed the most effective plan."

Bloodscar stared at him, his expression slowly changing...

This wasn’t nonchalance; it was an effective plan...

Effective!!

Lin Xiaosu said, "This plan has only one issue!"

"What is it?"

"Can you withstand the most extreme scenario?"

The most extreme scenario?

He didn’t elaborate, but Bloodscar clearly understood.

Bloodscar smiled lightly, "Don’t worry, in the entirety of Daxia, besides Jing Lei, no one can kill me in one strike."

"Then there’s no problem!" Lin Xiaosu said. "No need to fly to Fengcheng, head straight to Nanjiang University."

"If this trip is successful, I owe you a favor." Bloodscar said.

"Favors aren’t necessary, how about you increase the bonus?"

"You... are obsessed with money, aren’t you being a bit too vulgar?" Bloodscar rolled his eyes, "The bonus can’t be increased, the limit for information gathering tasks is 200,000, to increase it you’d need to amend the Qianlong Regulations. My favor will be repaid, for example, I won’t tell Chang Ye or Blue Demon about seeing you kiss that girl today..."

Damn!

Lin Xiaosu rolled his eyes at him and answered with a long string of ellipses...
