Swoosh!

A beam of light suddenly appeared in Su Jingxing’s bosom as well.

“What’s going on?”

Startled, Su Jingxing opened his shirt and looked inside.

He saw that the Eight Step Rising Dragon secret manual that he had carried on him was glowing.

A weak golden-red glow!

A glowing secret manual?

Su Jingxing was surprised and bewildered.

It’s not a mutation. Su Jingxing regained his composure and took out the secret manual to examine it carefully.

Soon, he found the source.

The last page of the secret manual was emitting a golden-red glow!

Under the faint golden-red radiance, some ancient characters had appeared on the blank last page.

However, they were very vague and unclear.

What’s going on?

It has been more than a day or two since I obtained the Eight Steps Ascending Dragon secret manual. Why did it glow today, but never before?

“Could it be…”

Su Jingxing shifted his gaze from the secret manual to the white goose across the river.

“Could it be because of the silvery-white light that the white goose is radiating?”

Su Jingxing clenched his fists subconsciously and looked surprised.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the changes on the last page of the secret manual.

This had never happened before. But this time, it had.

This guess was easy to verify.

Su Jingxing stepped back with the Eight Step Rising Dragon secret manual in hand, until he left the area covered by the silvery-white light.

Then, he checked the last page of the secret manual again.

As expected, the page had lost its glow and recovered its previous yellowish hue.

The reason was indeed the silvery-white glow emitted by the white goose!

This glow had a unique effect——it revealed some things that normally couldn’t be seen.

“Innate divine power?”

Su Jingxing started working his brains.

As expected, this glow was the white goose’s innate divine power.

As for the last page of the Eight Step Rising Dragon secret manual, it was obvious that it had been tampered with. The ancestors of the Wei Family had left a secret spell like invisibility on it.

If not for the white goose’s silvery-white glow, this secret spell might have lasted forever, and no one would know what was on the last page of the manual.

With this thought in mind, Su Jingxing held the manual and returned to the area shrouded in the silvery-white radiance.

He walked forward slowly and observed the contents on the last page.

As expected, the closer he got to the white goose, the clearer the contents of the manual became.

When Su Jingxing was half a meter away from the river, the contents of the last page were already clear.

Nine Steps Trampling Heaven!

On the last page, four ancient characters appeared.

Nine Steps Trampling Heaven, a martial art.

Wei Jiajia had once mentioned that the Wei family possessed three ultimate techniques.

Seven Steps Fist, Eight Steps Rising Dragon, and Nine Steps something.

The seventh and eighth were preserved, but the ninth was lost.

She didn’t even know what it was called.

Now he did, Nine Steps Trampling Heaven!

The martial art that the Wei Family had approached a few generations of martial artists to inquire about but failed to learn, was actually recorded on the last page of the Eight Steps Rising Dragon secret manual…

No, this isn’t right!

Su Jingxing quickly checked the contents of the last page and frowned slightly.

What was recorded here was not information about the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven.

It was a map!

The map of where the true secret manual of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven was hidden!

The words were stating why the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven had been hidden away.

It turned out that the Wei Family’s ancestors had encountered a crisis of extermination. In order to leave behind their inheritance, they separated the three ultimate techniques and allowed the three Wei family descendants to escape with one each. Among them, the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven was taken by the Patriarch’s son.

Splitting to three different routes, they escaped separately and successfully protected the Wei family’s legacy.

Several decades later, the three descendants of the Wei Family found each other and reunited.

However, just in case another incident of family extermination occurred, they found a place to hide the most important, Nine Steps Trampling Heaven.

Using a secret spell, they recorded the location on the last page of the Eight Steps Rising Dragon.

As for how to get the recorded information to show, there was also a description on it——mix the blood of the Wei Family with some herbs and the contents will appear.

Of course, in actual practice, they would not reveal it until they’re on their deathbed.

However, there were always exceptions to everything. The Wei Family still encountered change subsequently.

As time passed, there would always be accidents. Those who in the know died before they could share the information

In the end, this information was clearly lost.

The Wei Family’s ancestors failed to pass on this important piece of information.

The Nine Steps Trampling Heaven was lost ever since.

As for the white goose’s silvery-white glow, the Wei Family’s ancestors were completely unaware of it.

So, Su Jingxing got a good deal. He got the Eight Steps Rising Dragon from Wei Jiajia, and now with the help of the white goose, he coincidentally saw the contents of the last page of the secret manual.

Su Jingxing immediately opened his backpack and took out a pen and paper to copy the map in detail.

The Nine Steps Trampling Heaven——no matter what martial art it was, Su Jingxing had made a killing.

Seven Steps Fist, Eight Steps Rising Dragon, Nine Steps Trampling Heaven.

The ancestors of the Wei Family were quite interesting. All three of their ultimate techniques were executed using a certain number of steps.

After Su Jingxing was done with the map, hid it on himself.

This was a pleasant surprise.

Wei Jiajia would never have dreamed that she had given both the Eight Steps Rising Dragon and also the long-lost Nine Steps Trampling Heaven for a deal!

That’s right, Su Jingxing didn’t intend to tell Wei Jiajia about the existence of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven.

Firstly, this was Su Jingxing’s steal.

Secondly, would Wei Jiajia still give Su Jingxing the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven once she learns about this?

Obviously not!

Since she wouldn’t, why would Su Jingxing tell her?

Su Jingxing didn’t want to take it by force by then and cross his own bottom line.

Finally, the Wei Family valued the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven so much. If he were to tell Wei Jiajia, given her current strength, she would not be able to guard it well.

Rather than having a huge mess then, it would be better for her to remain oblivious and continue leading a peaceful life.

It was better to let him bear the blessings and disasters of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven!

Cough! Cough!

Having made up his mind, Su Jingxing put away the Eight Steps Rising Dragon secret manual and returned to his original spot to sit down. He continued to guard the Muyan Flower and also developed his night vision.

In the evening of the next day, this stalk of Muyan Flower successfully bloomed.

Su Jingxing took out the box that he had prepared beforehand, plucked the Muyan Flower and placed it inside.

After covering it, he also hid it close to his body to prevent it from falling.

When dawn broke, he waved goodbye to the white goose that had been watching him across the river.

He would return to this valley.

The white goose’s innate divine power was also very special.

If he could take it as a Spiritual Pet, it would certainly be of great help.

Su Jingxing smiled.

He left the valley the same way he entered.

He put on the steel claws and used the Eight Steps Rising Dragon to step on the steep rock face and climb up the thousand-meter cliff. Then, he dashed down all the way to return to the forest at the very beginning.

Once he was back in the forest, it became much more convenient.

He first found a hidden corner and buried the Red-Scaled Porcupine’s tusks.

After that, he sped up and used half a day to leave the Green Cloud Mountain Range.

He rushed to the Forestry Town at the foot of the mountain and took the last bus back to Qinghe City.

At this point, his timing was just right.

Back at his small courtyard, Su Jingxing put down his backpack. He took a shower and then prepared to go out for a good dinner.

Unexpectedly, Gu Bo’s call suddenly came in.

“Little Su, come to the crematorium immediately. There’s an urgent task!”

“What task?” Su Jingxing was curious.

“Another branch of the Black Tiger Gang has been wiped out!”
