Rise to God with Life Skill Professions-Chapter 391 - 381: Gathering, a Killing Intent

As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

The tall Mountain Patrol Silver General, upon hearing these words, trembled all over, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

He could feel the aura of killing intent emanating from Mr. Qin, along with boundless anger.

All of this was directed at Qin An.

"At your command..." The Mountain Patrol Silver General bowed and clasped his fists.

The Mountain Patrol Golden General waved his sleeve and said, "Attend to this immediately, by any means necessary."

The Mountain Patrol Silver General got up and left.

After the Mountain Patrol Silver General left, the Mountain Patrol Golden General looked at the empty room, a deep, cold light flickering in his eyes as if he could freeze all things.

"I had intended to give priority to the plan and let you live a few more days, but since you seek death, you have only yourself to blame."

"First, kill Wu Ning, then gradually seek opportunities to kill you."

Every word seemed to be spat out from between the Mountain Patrol Golden General’s teeth, carrying a bone-chilling coldness.

...

By the time he returned to the Evil Extermination Bureau, it was already late at night.

At this moment, people were coming and going at the Evil Extermination Bureau, with several Prefecture Generals carrying files ready to be transported to the Confidential Library.

Some Prefecture Generals were just taking up their tasks, preparing to leave the Evil Extermination Bureau.

Others were planning to go out for a drink after completing their missions, then visit the Music Bureau to relax their weary bodies and minds.

As a figure appeared at the entrance of the Evil Extermination Bureau, everyone present was stunned.

A young man, with a long sword hanging from his waist, emerged from the depths of the darkness.

The man’s expression was stern, and a dense aura of killing intent emanated from him.

In his left hand, he carried a man who was in a coma.

Many Prefecture Generals stopped in their tracks, and seeing the young man’s face, they all displayed expressions of shock.

"Mr. Qin?"

The murmur of discussions arose in the courtyard of the Evil Extermination Bureau.

"We never thought it would be Mr. Qin."

"Mr. Qin just took on a mission not long ago. How did he come back so quickly?"

"No idea, but judging by the killing aura on Mr. Qin, this mission was no simple task."

"Who is the person Mr. Qin is carrying?"

"I don’t know either. Let’s watch and see."

The discussions began softly, but as more Prefecture Generals noticed the commotion here, they cautiously approached, secretly observing Qin An.

Before long, the courtyard was surrounded densely by layers of people.

The newly appointed Prefecture Generals, witnessing this scene, all wore looks of confusion.

They had never seen this group of veterans gather so uniformly, so they began to inquire about the identity of the young man from the older, more experienced ones around them.

Upon learning that this person was the currently high-profile Qin An, these young Prefecture Generals showed expressions of realization, looking at Qin An with eyes full of reverence and admiration.

Qin An calmly surveyed the many Prefecture Generals and slowly uttered two words: "Make way."

Just those two words made the group shiver collectively, as if suddenly struck by a bitterly cold wind in the dead of winter.

Silently, they made way, not one daring to stand in the middle.

Qin An stepped into the courtyard.

The eyes of the many Prefecture Generals remained fixed on Qin An, only retracting their gaze once he disappeared at the end of the courtyard.

A few Prefecture Generals exhaled deeply.

"Terrifying. Just now, when Mr. Qin looked at me, it was like a thousand knives stabbing into my body."

"This is the Mountain Patrol Silver General, and the most talented in the history of Xunyang Prefecture."

"Not just the look, the aura he carries is beyond our measure. I wonder how long it will take for Mr. Qin to be promoted to Mountain Patrol Golden General."

"If he does get promoted to Mountain Patrol Golden General, he will likely become a legend in the entire Xunyang Prefecture."

The Prefecture Generals whispered among themselves, their gazes toward where Qin An disappeared growing increasingly hopeful.

...

Qin An did not know what they discussed afterward. At this moment, he was gripping Wu Ning by the neck, following a familiar path to reach the courtyard where Zhou Yuanfeng was located.

Wu Ning was still in a coma and would not awaken for a month.

Qin An could not possibly watch over Wu Ning the entire time.

He also needed to train his mastery, so he sent Wu Ning to Zhou Yuanfeng to see if Zhou Yuanfeng had any solutions.

At this moment, in Zhou Yuanfeng’s courtyard, two figures were sharing drinks.

Tang Zizhen was drinking continuously, chatting with Zhou Yuanfeng about various trivial matters, and after sensing a noise, instinctively turned to look, slightly stunned.

"Qin An, why are you here?"

Zhou Yuanfeng set down his wine cup and smiled slightly, "Since you’re here, come sit and have a couple of drinks. Who is the person you’re carrying?"

They both knew Qin An had gone off to complete a mission, but none of them expected Qin An to return with someone in tow.

However, since he was already here, the two were not surprised, having already experienced enough unexpected events involving Qin An.

Now, even faced with further shocking events, they could handle it with equanimity.

Qin An casually tossed Wu Ning onto an open space, sat across from the two, and took the wine cup Zhou Yuanfeng handed over, drinking it down before slowly speaking: "He’s related to the Divine Soul Refining Body Skill. See if you can extract any clues, but he’ll need at least a month to wake up."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuanfeng and Tang Zizhen were both stunned.

Zhou Yuanfeng suddenly stood up, a look of excitement in his eyes: "It’s actually a clue about the Divine Soul Refining Body Skill; you’ve done a great deed once again!"

Naturally, they overlooked the mention of a month.

To them, a month’s time was not long. As long as this person woke up, it might be possible to extract information about those working behind the scenes from him.

Tang Zizhen’s expression was complex: "To think, after searching for many days without a clue on the Divine Soul Refining Body incident, you easily found a living clue, truly..."

After pondering for a long time, Tang Zizhen didn’t say the words that followed, because she couldn’t find a term to describe the current situation.

Especially after feeling that intense killing intent on Qin An, the bitterness in her heart once again spread.

Such a peerless and decisive person was actually let go alive by herself.

Thinking about it now, she really felt like slapping herself a few times.

Qin An said lightly, "I’ll leave him to you. Within a month, you can pry some information out of him. Inform me as soon as you have clues; I’m also eager to know who the person behind all this is."

The enmity between him and the mastermind had piled up, to the point that even he felt troubled.

Therefore, as long as he could annoy this mastermind, Qin An was willing to do it.

After all, they were already at the point of life-and-death enemies.

Zhou Yuanfeng nodded, "Rest assured, we’ll handle him without any mishaps. If any information is detected, you’ll be informed at the earliest."

Qin An poured himself another glass of wine, drank it down, and stood up, "I’m leaving."

He didn’t linger much; this mission seemed completed perfectly, but it was extremely dangerous midway.

If he hadn’t elevated both Cultivation Techniques to the level of Great Success of Inner God Realm, this mission might have ended nine deaths and one survival.

After all, the Heavenly Origin Pseudo-God possessed a solid Half-step Unity Realm Cultivation.

Thus, Qin An planned to return and rest well, then continue cultivating proficiency the next day.

Regarding which two professions to cultivate, he’s already decided.

Currently, the Body Technique and Protective Technique were only at the initial level of Inner God Realm; he planned to first practice dancer and healer to level fourteen.

Then elevate both Cultivation Techniques to Great Success of Inner God Realm, and subsequently train in Array Master and Pill Master professions.

Thinking of this, Qin An’s figure gradually disappeared from the courtyard.

Zhou Yuanfeng looked at Qin An’s disappearing back, cast a glance at Tang Zizhen’s bitter expression, "Sister, don’t dwell on it."

Tang Zizhen came to her senses, "You usually like to mock me sarcastically, why are you kindly comforting me today?"

Zhou Yuanfeng shook his head, "Actually, recently while drinking and enjoying ourselves with you, I’ve thought too, if I had Sister’s disposition, I wouldn’t be much better than you."

"Why do you say that?" Tang Zizhen asked.

Zhou Yuanfeng’s eyes had a hint of emotion, "After all, no one would believe someone coming from Ding County could reach this point today."

Tang Zizhen said complicatedly, "Indeed, Xunyang Prefecture has always had countless talents, but one as monstrous as Qin An is unique. His achievements today all rely on his unparalleled talent."

"No, you’re wrong." Zhou Yuanfeng shook his head.

Tang Zizhen frowned, "Where am I wrong again?"

Zhou Yuanfeng smiled lightly, "Talent is secondary; it is his decisiveness and spirit to win steadily. Without these, he wouldn’t have come this far even if one is missing."

Tang Zizhen was stunned on the spot, after a long time she came to her senses, "You’re right. Xunyang Prefecture has countless talents, and many died young. If he relied on talent alone, he couldn’t have made it today, and that’s exactly what I admire about him."

Zhou Yuanfeng said lightly, "Whenever faced with danger, he can make the right decisions; with this alone, Xunyang Prefecture cannot confine him."

Tang Zizhen was suddenly startled, "You’re implying... he can leave Xunyang Prefecture as a Mountain Patrol General? Impossible, even the General Mansion took years to leave Xunyang Prefecture, reaching the level of Mountain Patrol Golden General is probably the limit."

"Let’s wait and see." Zhou Yuanfeng raised his glass, "You didn’t believe before, and you still don’t, but Qin An will use facts to show you, everything will come true."

Tang Zizhen observed Zhou Yuanfeng’s calm expression, suddenly smiled brightly, and after clinking glasses with Zhou Yuanfeng, drank the fine wine in the cup, "Alright, just like you said, I’ll also be an honest onlooker."

The two resumed drinking, and the night grew thicker.

...

On the following day, darkness gradually dissipated, the sunlight pierced through the clouds, illuminating every inch of land in Xunyang Prefecture.

The people began to awaken, a few women pushed dirty clothes toward the nearest river of Xunyang Prefecture.

This small river had already gathered quite a few people from Xunyang Prefecture.

These simple women washed clothes while exchanging trivial matters from the streets.

The river began to foam, and with the washing flow, the foam gradually became scarce.

The sky brightened, the temperature of the late autumn carried a hint of chill.

When a breeze blew, the woman washing clothes couldn’t help but tighten her collar.

She instinctively looked up, saw several Jianghu people passing by the river with their weapons, and immediately lowered her head, not daring to meet their gaze.

The other women were the same.

Once these Jianghu people left, the first woman whispered, "I don’t know what’s going on, so many outsiders have come."

The woman beside placed clothes in a basin, "I don’t know either, they seem to come from various states of Xunyang Prefecture."

"You can discern that?"

"Of course, the one just passed by, looked like he’s dressed from Yunzhou."

"What do they come to Xunyang Prefecture for?"

"I don’t know either, but I feel like something big is going to happen."

Several women whispered.

While they were talking, a few more Jianghu people carrying weapons silently passed by the river.

Not only this river, but in other places too many Jianghu people gathered outside Xunyang Prefecture.

In a hidden forest.

A few men sat on stones, eating the dry rations in their hands.

Everyone’s clothes were different.

In the middle was a burly man, who after gnawing the dry ration, took out a leather water bag, drank several sips, and swallowed the ration.

"Bang!"

The leather water bag was casually tossed onto the ground, attracting the attention of the other two men, who collectively focused their gaze on him.

The man wiped the water drops from the corner of his mouth, sneering, "They all came, half of the seeds sown by the master these years have arrived."

The man on the left wiped away the crumbs from his mouth, "This is a tough battle."

The man on the right was silent for a moment, then nodded, "After all, wanting to kill someone inside the strict Evil Extermination Bureau, is too difficult..."

The man who spoke first sneered, "He must die, and another person... must also die!"
