Chapter 58 Lu Ming's Decision

Chen Ping respectfully said, "Master Wei, I was being chased by Wu Yong, the Blood Man, and I don't know why, but suddenly it was as if I had an epiphany, and I broke through to the Tendon Refining cultivation level while fleeing for my life."

Yun Potian, standing to the side, gaped, "This works?!"

Wei Jinlin nodded and said, "This is related to your usual hard work and cultivation. It's a case of accumulating knowledge and experience before finally breaking through in battle. After you go back, you must continue to cultivate diligently and consolidate your cultivation."

"Yes," Chen Ping replied respectfully.

"Something strange happened today. Let's go back to the city first and then make a decision," Wei Jinlin said calmly, then turned to lead the way.

Seeing that everyone was about to leave, Lu Ming hurriedly asked, "Master Wei, where is Pavilion Master Qin?"

Wei Jinlin paused, then turned to look at Lei Wanchun.

Lei Wanchun frowned and said, "Sect Master Qin is already dead."

"Master Qin is dead?" Lu Ming exclaimed, then asked, "Where is his body? When is the funeral scheduled? I want to go and pay my respects."

Lei Wanchun flicked his sleeve and said, "You should think more about how to complete today's task."

After saying that, he ignored Lu Ming and turned to leave.

Seeing Lei Wanchun's attitude, Lu Ming's heart sank. It seemed that the Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion did not like him very much.

Watching everyone leave, he clenched his fist slightly, feeling unwilling.

"Lei Wanchun probably didn't go to see Qin Zhonghai."

Suddenly, Lu Ming heard Wei Jinlin's voice in his ear.

He looked up and saw Wei Jinlin leaving with Feng Qingzhu and the others, as if the voice he had just heard was not his.

No one else reacted to Wei Jinlin's words.

Turning his head, he saw that Li Hu beside him didn't react either.

A thought suddenly struck him: this must be a secret method of transmitting sound; only he could hear Wei Jinlin's voice just now.

Lei Wanchun didn't go to see Qin Zhonghai?

Lu Ming pondered those words, and after a moment's thought, he immediately understood.

Qin Zhonghai escaped with serious injuries, but Lei Wanchun assumed he was dead and did not search for Qin Zhonghai's whereabouts.

Why did Lei Wanchun do this? Lu Ming didn't know; it might be due to factional infighting within the Tianji Pavilion.

He hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Li Hu, let's go back and find Pavilion Master Qin."

Judging from Wei Jinlin and Lei Wanchun's expressions, their attempt to hunt the Earth Dragon Beast this time had clearly failed.

However, it seems that a fight had taken place, as Wei Jinlin had more black acupoints on his body than usual, and his aura seemed to have weakened, indicating that he was likely injured.

Both sides must have suffered heavy losses, otherwise Wei Jinlin wouldn't have been able to return so easily.

Lu Ming's decision to seek out Qin Zhonghai at this time carries a certain risk. The mysterious man and the earth dragon beast might launch a surprise attack.

Since Wei Jinlin chose to remind him, it means that Wei Jinlin believes that the human and the demon are unlikely to return.

However, if he chooses to go to Wei Jinlin, he will have to bear the consequences himself.

Thinking of this, he looked at Li Hu and said, "Never mind, you go back first, I can go by myself."

Wei Jinlin treated him well, and today he went out alone to protect him, only to be chased by a mysterious person. Lu Ming was willing to take that one-in-a-million risk to find Qin Zhonghai.

We demand to see him alive or dead!

However, Li Hu didn't need to risk his life with him.

Upon hearing this, Li Hu shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Lu, I'm also good at finding people."

"Senior Brother Lu has helped me a lot before, but I have never been able to find a martial arts manual for him."

"Since you need me today, how can I go back at this crucial moment?"

Lu Ming was taken aback when he heard this. He didn't expect that Li Hu had remembered his joke about needing martial arts manuals.

Li Hu was indeed honest and kind, and a grateful person.

However, Lu Ming felt it was inappropriate for Li Hu to risk his life to search for Qin Zhonghai, since he had never received any favors from Qin Zhonghai.

Li Hu said urgently, "Master Wei and the others have already gone far away. It's just as dangerous for me to leave the forest on my own or to go with Senior Brother Lu to find Pavilion Master Qin. Senior Brother Lu, please let me go with you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming finally nodded: "Okay, then come with me."

"Let's not delay, let's go now."

"You just mentioned martial arts manuals. Master Qin carries martial arts manuals with him at all times, and there should be more than one. Try to find them in that direction."

Li Hu nodded solemnly: "Senior Brother Lu, I understand."

At that moment, Lu Ming used his supernatural speed to grab Li Hu's shoulder and rush back at top speed.

Soon, the two arrived at the place where the mysterious man had attacked Qin Zhonghai. They slowed down and had Li Hu search in the direction Qin Zhonghai had fled from the mysterious man's pursuit.

Throughout the journey, Li Hu's expression was solemn. He would sniff the air and try to identify the marks on the ground and trees.

Before long, the two crossed a stream.

Li Hu suddenly pointed to the bloodstains on the ground and said, "The aura of the martial arts manual once overlapped with the bloodstains."

Lu Ming looked closely and saw that the bloodstains on the ground were not completely dry, indicating that they had flowed recently. His eyes lit up immediately.

"This should be the blood that came out of Qin Ge's main vein. Let's go, let's follow the bloodstains now."

Li Hu nodded solemnly: "Senior Brother Lu, come with me."

The two then ventured deeper into the forest.

At the edge of the forest, three zhang above the ground, there was a narrow cave. Qin Zhonghai, covered in blood, leaned against the cave entrance.

His face was pale, he was slightly out of breath, and he was extremely weak.

His hand trembled slightly as he pressed it against his chest. He felt the deathly silence around him, and a trace of despair appeared in his eyes.

He was struck in the back of the heart by the mysterious man, his heart ruptured, and he was bound to die.

However, he had a healing elixir hidden on him, which he swallowed and temporarily stabilized his heart injury.

Immediately afterward, he saw Wei Jinlin and Lei Wanchun arrive and fight the mysterious man and the earth dragon beast, ultimately forcing the man and the demon to flee.

He thought Lei Wanchun would come looking for him, but unexpectedly he ran away.

As the head of the Martial Arts Department, Wei Jinlin was worried about the safety of the ten geniuses and left quickly, which he could understand.

But Lei Wanchun didn't come to find him, which made him feel a sense of resentment.

Both the human and the demon fled in a blood-soaked escape. Lei Wanchun himself was a martial artist at the Tempering Realm, and he was capable of protecting himself in front of the two injured powerhouses.

To everyone's surprise, he was unwilling to take any risks and refused to help his longtime colleague who was in dire need.

Therefore, he is likely doomed to die.

Thinking of this, a deep sense of desolation appeared on his face again. He never expected that his secret protection of Lu Ming would end up like this.

"Senior Brother Lu, this way, we should be almost there..."

Suddenly, a voice faintly came from the woods.

Qin Zhonghai's heart tightened. Could it be that the mysterious person had caught up with them?

Just as he was getting anxious, two young martial artists emerged from the woods in front of the cave. Upon seeing one of their faces, Qin Zhonghai was first taken aback, then a hint of surprise appeared in his heart.

"Lu Ming!"

Qin Zhonghai managed to call out, his voice weak, but he felt immense relief. It was Lu Ming who had come to find him.
