My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

To ordinary martial artists, this speed was clearly unimaginable. However, to Qin Huai, this was neither a short nor long time.

"Kid, you seem to... Your comprehension of force is extremely swift." Elder Erlong looked at Qin Huai and clicked his tongue in wonder. "Your comprehension of the concealment of spirit and qi is also surprisingly fast. It's probably because your comprehension is really high."

Elder Erlong shook her head, this was the only explanation. He had touched Qin Huai's bones before, and his aptitude was very ordinary.

However, Qin Huai was standing right in front of him, displaying his amazing talent. Elder Erlong could only think that there were always some geniuses in the world that didn't conform to common sense.

And so, he accepted this very quickly. After all, he was a person who studied forbidden techniques.

If he couldn't accept things that were beyond ordinary people's knowledge, how could he study forbidden techniques? Wouldn't it be better to knock the bell with the bald donkeys in the temple and make wooden fish?

…

That night, Qin Huai went to sleep as usual. There was no one who used the same trick to sneak attack him.

The next morning, he walked to the martial arts field and found a group of people sneakily whispering to each other.

"Our Nine Dragons sect seems to be haunted."

"You've heard about that too?"

"Sigh, my father didn't allow me to say it, but everyone understands. It's just that…"

"Tsk, tsk, to think that such a thing would happen in such a huge sect like ours…"

The crowd was in a heated discussion.

The corners of Qin Huai's mouth twitched as he listened to this group of people speaking in riddles. The higher-ups were quick to give out orders. Were they already not allowing these people to discuss?

"Brother Qin!" Zhang Haoyue called out to Qin Huai from behind.

"Brother Zhang!" When Qin Huai saw who it was, a bright and happy smile appeared on his face. "Brother Zhang, what are they talking about?" he asked 'curiously.'

"Brother Qin, you don't know?"

"Know what? Brother Zhang, don't keep us in suspense!" Qin Huai said with a smile.

Zhang Haoyue sighed. "The second son of the Li family's sixth branch, Li Buyi, has gone missing.

"The second son of the Li family's sixth branch isn't very old. He's only seventeen years old, similar to Brother Qin, but he's already a martial artist at the seventh refinement great blood refinement.

"He's known as one of the pillars of the Li family's next generation. He's treated like a treasure by Sixth Uncle Li."

Qin Huai's heart clenched when he heard this. He frowned. "Then... Then why would he suddenly go missing?"

Zhang Haoyue shook his head. "Who knows? It's said that he couldn't be found since yesterday. Some people said that the last time they saw him was the night before yesterday. After that, this person disappeared from the world.

"The Li family's sixth branch has almost turned the entire sect upside down, but they still can't find him."

Qin Huai also sighed. "I hope he's fine."

"Yeah, I hope so." Zhang Haoyue also shook his head. "Brother Qin, you have to be careful these days, especially at night."

"Brother Zhang too. You are the pillar of our Nine Dragons sect."

The two of them went their separate ways after exchanging pleasantries.

After about a hundred steps, Zhang Haoyue turned around and looked at Qin Huai's back. He paused for three breaths, then turned around and left.

…

"The genius of the Li family's sixth branch..." Qin Huai mumbled to himself as he collected his experience points. At the same time, he was thinking about why the Li family had come to assassinate him.

To be able to sneak into the Li family's courtyard and kill him without a sound… It was reasonable, but not logical.

Although this live-in son-in-law was not well-liked and was even forced to give the Zhang family the mining rights of the Darksteel Mountain for a year, he should not be sentenced to death. Shouldn't he at least stay for a year or two to see how he performs?

After Qin Huai finished collecting the experience points, the long breath technique's experience points increased to around three thousand as expected. It would take a month to break through to the eighth refinement, which wasn't long. It was actually very short.

Qin Huai returned to the courtyard, but Li Shaoxiang still had not returned. Only Qingshui was busy cleaning the place.

"Qingshui, do you know much about the Li family's sixth branch?" Qin Huai found Qingshui and asked.

"I know about the big things, but I don't know about the family affairs. I really don't know."

"Oh, you should be clear about what factions there are in the Li family, right?" Qin Huai changed to a clearer angle.

"I do know a little about this." Qingshui sat in the courtyard, 'explaining' to Qin Huai. "The Li family has a total of six branches and is roughly divided into three factions.

"The more pragmatic and neutral faction is led by the old master Li Zeren, the fourth master Li Zeshi, and the sixth master Li Zeming. They think we're not weaker than the Zhang family. However, they also accept that both sides are equal and work together to protect the interests and development of the Nine Dragons sect.

"The second is led by the second master, Li Zeyu, the representative of absolute power. They felt that the Li family had to be the leader of the Nine Dragons sect. He's always been radical in his actions. That's why his relationship with the other brothers is quite ordinary.

"The third faction is led by the third master, Li Zezhi, and the fifth master, Li Zian…" Qingshui's gaze was rather distant. "They are closer to the Zhang family. If they feel that the Zhang family is strong, they let them be. They believe there is no need for internal friction to weaken the Nine Dragons sect."

As Qin Huai listened to Qingshui's analysis, his mind was filled with thoughts.

"What was Li Zeming's son doing? He couldn't possibly affect the interests and development of the Nine Dragons sect, right? Who does this Li Buyi usually deal with?"

"I don't know. I haven't been back for many years. To be honest, I don't even remember this person's name." Qingshui shook her head, indicating that she was unable to help.

"Alright." Qin Huai had no choice but to give up.

…

At night, Qin Huai went up the mountain again.

"Grandmaster, do you have any impression of the Li family's genius, Li Buyi? Qin Huai went straight to the point and asked.

"The missing boy? Of course... His talent isn't bad, and he'll have the chance to touch the bone pattern realm in the future. It's a pity, though... I'm afraid he's already dead after being missing for two days." Elder Erlong helplessly shook her head.

"Then does Grandmaster have any impression of who he usually interacts with?"

"That person is a little arrogant and doesn't have many friends…" Elder Erlong frowned slightly, searching through his memories. "One of his few hobbies is that he's definitely present every time Zhang Haoyue gives a lecture in the martial arts field. I think he really likes that Zhang Haoyue kid... No, more than half of the young people in the Nine Dragons sect like him."

When Qin Huai heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly. For such a genius not to miss Zhang Haoyue's lecture, the two of them must have communicated before.

But today, Zhang Haoyue's tone when he mentioned Li Buyi… It sounded like they weren't even close.

Could it be that it was Zhang Haoyue who wanted to assassinate him?
