Chapter 91

After sweeping away the bandit camps in Qipan Road, Xiong Zhigang and the others began their intensive arrangements.

Chu Danqing took time out of his busy schedule to find a place to open the treasure chests.

【You opened: Treasure Chest (Excellent), obtained: Skill Book (Basic Melee), Skill Book (Fire Cloud Art), Skill Book (Fire Cloud Palm), Skill Book (Fire Cloud Step), Small Return Treasure Pill, Paradise Points ×2900, Paradise Points ×2900】

【Skill Book: Basic Melee】

——

【Skill Book: Fire Cloud Art】

——

【Skill Book: Fire Cloud Palm】

【Type: Active/Passive Skill】

【Quality: Common】

【Effect: After use, obtain the skill Fire Cloud Palm, which can have different power and effects through different moves; possessing the inheritance skill Fire Cloud Art increases quality to Excellent】

——

【Skill Book: Fire Cloud Step】

【Type: Active/Passive Skill】

【Quality: Common】

【Effect: After use, obtain the skill Fire Cloud Step, which can have different power and effects through different moves; possessing the inheritance skill Fire Cloud Art increases quality to Excellent】

——

【Small Return Treasure Pill】

【Type: Consumable】

【Quality: Excellent】

【Effect 1: Restore 5% HP within 10 minutes】

【Effect 2: Accumulate 100 points of medicinal power in the body, which can be refined to improve inheritance-type skill progress】

Chu Danqing put everything into his storage space; selling the three-piece set would have a higher value, and he would keep the Small Return Treasure Pill for his own use.

The recovery effect was incidental, and the 100 points of medicinal power were the point.

Unfortunately, it was not Five Elements Qi; for Chu Danqing, the effect was not as good as the Five Qi Pill.

The biggest gain was Basic Melee; he called Da Bao over, intending to let him learn it.

Selling it was nothing more than cashing it into resources to make himself stronger, so letting Da Bao learn it was skipping the middle process and becoming stronger directly.

However, the fact was that it couldn't be learned.

There were two reasons: the first was because Da Bao belonged to a summoned object, not an independent individual, so he couldn't learn basic skills.

The second was... Da Bao's intelligence was not enough.

It wasn't the spirit attribute, it was intelligence.

This made Chu Danqing feel helpless, so he could only put it away for now; whether to sell it or keep it for use would be decided later.

As for him learning it? That would be a pure waste.

He specialized in summoning; how could he have so many resources to cultivate another basic skill?

If it were Basic Ranged Art, he would consider it, but Basic Melee was out.

With his financial resources, he couldn't support loving everyone he saw.

"Just this Basic Melee could exchange for a whole set of summoning object strengthening skills for me."

"They would still have to compensate me with Paradise Points." Chu Danqing muttered.

He had searched in the Apostle Square; basic skills were priceless in the market.

Once someone sold one, it basically formed a small wave, and the transaction would be completed in at most ten minutes.

Especially Basic Melee, the demand was even greater.

It was precisely because Chu Danqing borrowed the light of the side task this time, allowing the treasure chest to accumulate and settle, and adding up all the treasure chests of the outlaw bandits in Qipan Road, that he obtained one.

Otherwise, killing Fire Cloud Tiger Cheng Chun directly would only yield Fire Cloud Art and Paradise Points.

"What's wrong? Why did you suddenly call Da Bao over?" Zhao Mingqian leaned over and asked curiously.

Da Bao was previously helping them arrange things, but was called away by Chu Danqing and delayed for nearly ten minutes, so he came to see what was happening.

"A small matter, it's already been handled." Chu Danqing said, then asked: "How is the resolution?"

"It's resolved, just waiting for this group of vermin to come to the door." Zhao Mingqian replied.

Subsequently, the two went to the scene, and Xiong Zhigang was chatting with Wang Zhao about something.

When they got closer, Chu Danqing heard clearly that they were talking about the outlaws.

"How much longer until they arrive?" Chu Danqing asked.

"Not very clear, but at the earliest, it will take about an hour." Wang Zhao said truthfully: "Although we arranged it in advance, we can't do anything to them with these means."

"I came to Qipan Road to open the way, not because I was worried about them being intercepted, but to keep a low profile."

"Since they have the ability to sell military equipment, it means they are all highly skilled in martial arts."

"With a large number of people and fine equipment, even if Mr. Chu can summon dragons and tigers, the chance of winning is not high."

Wang Zhao actually didn't think highly of their action.

"That's true, but we don't necessarily have to wipe them all out; we just need to catch the leader." Chu Danqing knew Wang Zhao was telling the truth.

How could it be anything else? It was C-rank difficulty.

This time it wasn't like clearing Qipan Road, where they could be defeated one by one.

Maybe Chu Danqing would have to pay to summon Guo Ming to help.

He didn't ask for him to be very strong; having one-tenth of Lu Yin's strength would be enough.

After all, only a month or so had passed; he couldn't hope for Guo Ming to become very strong.

"That shouldn't be, Mr. Chu, you can't solve this with your means?" Zhao Mingqian had an inexplicable confidence in Chu Danqing.

Anyway, Chu Danqing himself didn't have it.

"I'm not an immortal, just a wandering artificer." Chu Danqing felt that Zhao Mingqian regarded him as someone who could do everything.

"Little Chu, many people." Da Bao suddenly reminded them: "Coming here."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expression changed slightly; it wasn't agreed that it would take at least an hour, so why did they come early?

"Move to the previous ambush positions, fast!" Xiong Zhigang made a decisive decision, letting everyone act.

After everyone was in position, Chu Danqing saw a team of people escorting a convoy slowly coming.

The carriage wheels pressed a long groove on the ground, which meant the things the convoy was transporting were not light.

The escort personnel all had knives at their waists, and if one observed carefully, one could see they wore inner armor under their clothes.

Having knives was not rare, but having armor was different.

"Stable lower body, calluses on the tiger's mouth, light gait..." Zhao Mingqian, who was on the side, said in a low voice: "The few leading ones are all experts not inferior to Fire Cloud Tiger Cheng Chun."

"Even if my master met them and they besieged him together, he wouldn't be an opponent."

"Only if the sect leader uncle comes, will there be a 70% chance of winning."

Outlaws and sects naturally couldn't compare to people trained by the imperial court.

The imperial court possesses the world, and it lacks neither martial arts nor resources; if it couldn't compare to these forces, it would have been overthrown and changed dynasties long ago.

"They use military systems, but their demeanor doesn't look like people from the army." Xiong Zhigang replied: "They should be people under the Qiutan Party."

Highly skilled in martial arts, military soldiers, and organized—putting these three together, it would be difficult to catch people.
