The birthday banquet was finally over. He Quanxin and his brother were indeed full of smiles during the banquet. However, when they were a few hundred meters away from the Cheng Mansion, their expressions suddenly turned serious.
Everyone knew that the Lin family had sent someone to celebrate Old Master Cheng's birthday with such a big gift. They were definitely trying to flaunt their prowess. From now on, anyone who wanted to make an enemy out of the Cheng Family would have to consider the existence of the Lin Family of Glittering Jewels.
This was a huge family. Perhaps they would not interfere with Taicang County's affairs on small matters. However, if the Cheng Family was in a life and death situation, they would definitely not stand by and do nothing.
Once they thought about how the Cheng Family had suddenly gained such a strong ally, the He Brothers' hearts became heavy.
After returning home, He Quanxin ordered everyone to rest. As for the Cheng Family's affairs, they could only go back and report to Old Master Cheng before dealing with it.
Even in the county town, the younger generation lived alone.
After He Yiming entered his room, he immediately blew out the light and lay on the bed with his clothes on. After a while, when there was no movement outside, he quietly opened the door and left.
His movements were extremely subtle and he purposely avoided where the elders lived. Therefore, no one noticed him.
He easily climbed over the wall and arrived at the woodshed where the corpse was hidden.
Sure enough, at this time, no one came here at all. He Yiming did not dare to stay. He picked up the corpse and ran out of the city as fast as he could.
His Qinggong might not be great, but with the support of a strong inner strength technique, it was not a problem for him to run long distances.
Soon, they arrived in the middle of a mountain forest. They dug a hole and buried the corpse. When the last pile of soil was planted, he thought about it and bowed three times respectfully in front of the unmarked grave.
After doing all this, he felt a sense of relief. Then, he hurriedly returned home.
Although he had climbed over the city wall twice, to He Yiming, this kind of low wall in the county was not a problem at all. Perhaps it was not as easy as walking on flat ground, but it was still easy. The only thing that made him a little afraid were the soldiers that occasionally walked on the city wall.
However, these soldiers were all yawning, and even their eyes were half closed. This made He Yiming very suspicious. He was afraid that even if he walked in front of them, these men would turn a blind eye to him.
However, by the time he returned home, the sky was already bright. Not long after he closed the door and lay down, he heard the voices of his uncle and the others coming from the courtyard.
He Yiming immediately jumped up as if there was a spring under his feet. After hurriedly eating breakfast, Eldest Uncle, Yitian, and Yihai immediately left the city and returned to He Family Manor.
He Yiming and his siblings rarely came to the city to reunite with their parents, so He Quanxin specially allowed them to stay for a few more days.
It was very rare for the whole family to be together. He Yiming also threw everything aside and opened his heart to share the joy of family reunion with his parents and siblings.
Only at night did the crowd disperse.
After returning to his room, He Yiming finally took out the things he got from the black-clothed man.
Compared to before, he was much calmer now. It was also because of this that he was able to forcefully suppress the curiosity in his heart and only now did he begin to inspect yesterday's harvest.
Naturally, the black-clothed man did not lack silver. There were four gold ingots worth ten taels each, and there were also quite a few silver coins scattered around. However, this unexpected wealth was not what he paid attention to.
Other than the silver, He Yiming actually found three small bottles. These bottles were carved from a certain type of jade. This type of jade was not precious, but it was relatively sturdy. Even if it accidentally fell to the ground, it would not break easily.
Other than that, there was also a thin book. He Yiming opened it and it was actually a book about how to disguise oneself.
He Yiming did not know whether the disguise technique in the book was brilliant or not, but it mentioned a few methods of disguise that he had never heard of before. Among them, there were even some methods of synthesizing medicine. If what was said in the book was true, then the value of this disguise technique would not be too low.
After organizing these things a little, He Yiming finally took out the thing he was most concerned about.
It was a book wrapped in an oilcloth. Carefully opening it, it was indeed a handwritten manual.
He Yiming's heart was slightly excited. He opened the first page and on it were the words' Raging Inferno Technique '.
His wrist trembled slightly, almost dropping the book in his hand. He Yiming's heart suddenly beat twice as fast.
Before he received this book, he would never have thought that it would actually be this secret manual. At this moment, his expression changed unpredictably, and his heart was extremely happy.
Fortunately, he only saw this book now. If he had hurriedly read it yesterday, then his expression would definitely have changed and he would be suspected.
Although he was not old, he still had a good understanding of the three big families in Taicang County.
Among the three aristocratic families, each aristocratic family had its own library and such. In that place, all of the family's five elements cultivation methods were hidden.
Generally speaking, with the strength of these three families, the cultivation methods that they collected were basically ordinary cultivation methods. Even the best among them were only slightly better than ordinary cultivation methods.
However, in the Xu Family, there were two main cultivation methods of inner strength, and they were extremely rare top level cultivation methods.
Although He Yiming had not seen it with his own eyes, his uncle, father, and other elders had mentioned it to him many times. Moreover, they did not hide that when they were young, they had all suffered from this cultivation method. Therefore, these two cultivation methods were extremely deep.
The main cultivation method of the fire element was the Raging Inferno Technique, and the main cultivation method of the wood element was the Withered Tree Technique.
These two cultivation methods were undoubtedly the lifeblood of the Xu Family. They were also the biggest trump cards in their hands.
Gently touching the copy of the secret manual in his hand, He Yiming still did not dare to believe that his luck would be this good.
He carefully recalled the conversation between the black-clothed man and the drunkard, and finally came to a conclusion.
The drunkard thief of the Xu Family must have used some method to sneak in. There was no doubt about this, and He Yiming was certain that he had concealed his true strength to be able to sneak in.
Otherwise, if an inner strength expert of the seventh or eighth level was really willing to join the Xu Family, he would definitely be treated with respect not inferior to the second generation of the family. Why would he follow behind the Xu Family's younger generation and be a yes-man?
Behind the black-clothed man and the drunkard, there was also an unknown black hand controlling everything. Not only was all of this hidden, but it also seemed to be a one-way connection.
Moreover, he was certain that the incomplete copy of the secret manual in the black-clothed man's hand was definitely the Withered Wood Method, which was equally famous as the Raging Flame Method.
He thought for a moment, and finally completely threw this matter aside.
In any case, the black-clothed man was already dead, and at this moment there was no evidence, so no one would suspect him. And with his current special physique, as long as he persisted in using the Metal Method in front of outsiders, then he would definitely not attract any trouble.
Closing his eyes, He Yiming's state of mind slowly calmed down.
Since he had such a secret manual in his hands, how could he not study it?
He Yiming calmly sat like this for an hour, and finally recovered his state of mind to its optimal state. Then, he slowly opened the secret manual of the Raging Flame Method, and seriously began to study it.
The Raging Inferno Technique was a Fire Attribute Cultivation Technique. It was very different from the Metal Attribute and Water Attribute Cultivation Techniques that He Yiming had previously cultivated.
When He Yiming began to practice according to the records in the book, wherever the inner strength passed, there would be a kind of warm and toasty feeling. In his heart, he clicked his tongue in wonder. It was indeed a top level Fire Method, the feeling that it gave people was indeed different from the rest.
At this moment, he even thought of the battle with Xu Yucai a few days ago. He vaguely understood that what Xu Yucai used at that time should also be a top level Battle Method.
Although it was not as scary as a Xiantian Battle Method, its power was not something that a normal Battle Method could compare to.
The practice of the Raging Flame Method was also smooth sailing for He Yiming.
Because it was the first time he had come into contact with a Fire Method, He Yiming maintained the greatest degree of caution. Every word in the secret manual was carefully studied, as if he was afraid that he would miss something.
Just like this, the time he spent studying the secret manual far exceeded the time he spent practicing it.
On the first night, he only practiced the first five levels.
He was not very satisfied with this speed, but if this speed were to spread to the Xu Family, then it was guaranteed that the ancestors of the Xu Family would crawl out of their graves and die again.
As a top-grade cultivation technique, although its might was powerful and surpassed ordinary cultivation techniques of the same level, the difficulty of cultivating it was naturally many times more difficult. Even if one's talent was high, it would still take several years to cultivate to the first five levels. For someone like He Yiming, who was able to cultivate to the first five levels of a top-grade cultivation technique in just one night, he was definitely the only one. There was no other person like him.
The next day, He Yiming continued to spend the day with his family, happily passing the day. At night, he continued to practice.
Of course, when he was practicing, he was also extremely careful, afraid that if he did not go as he wished, it would lead to some tragic consequences. But even so, on the third night, he successfully practiced the Raging Flame Method to the ninth level.
At this point, his inner strength finally stopped advancing and stabilized at the ninth level.
At the same time, he also roughly looked through the Disguise Technique book, and knew the contents of the three jade bottles. Inside were some powder for disguise, they were all refined from some common herbs, there was nothing special about them.
PS: Yesterday, when I was reading the book review section, someone asked where the female lead was.
En, thinking about it, the current Martial God is only fourteen years old, to find a partner at this age …
It seems a bit too early, puppy love is not a good thing, it does not conform to the country's policy.
If he writes about love, lust, and so on now, then the White Crane will probably be arrested by tomorrow ^ _ ^
Also, there is the problem of the word count. Currently, there are more than six thousand words per day, and more than nine thousand on Mondays. In the public section, it is actually not a small number, sweat …
Next month, the White Crane will still fight for the monthly votes, when that time comes, the updates will be faster, more than ten thousand words per day.
But here, the White Crane declares that he only wants to be in the top three, not the first.
