Chapter 706 - 706 Pirated Body Tempering Technique (2)
706 Pirated Body Tempering Technique (2)
“Who would spend five million to target the two of you?” Xu Jingming asked.
“Jing Ming, did you offend anyone?” Jing Yulong asked.
“Nope.” Xu Jingming said with certainty, “Dad, Mom, you know that I’ve been seriously practicing martial arts all these years. I usually work at the Black Fire Club and haven’t offended anyone.”
Jing Yulong and Yuan Yu nodded. Their son was very focused on martial arts, and his usual social network was mainly at the Black Fire Club. The Black Fire Club treasured Xu Jingming, so there were no major conflicts.
“Your mother is a full-time housewife, and she doesn’t have any enemies.” Jing Yulong frowned slightly. “I have some conflicts in business.”
“What conflict can make the other party spend five million to hire a.s.sa.s.sins?” Yuan Yu asked.
“The other party owes me 400 million!” Jing Yulong answered. “They forced me to go to court… Once I go to court, all his a.s.sets will be frozen to pay off the debt, and he will go bankrupt.”
“That much?” Yuan Yu was surprised.
“Who is it?” Xu Jingming asked.
“The boss of Oilwind Company, Oilwind,” Jing Yulong replied.
Xu Jingming got up. “Give me the address. I’ll bring him back.”
“If it’s really him, he might have already gone into hiding,” Jing Yulong said with a frown.
“I’ll take a look first.” Xu Jingming walked out of the door.
Jing Yulong and Yuan Yu watched their son leave.
“As a father, am I not useless to rely on my son to solve my problems?” Jing Yulong smiled bitterly.
“The other party has already hired an a.s.sa.s.sin. At this moment, our son is better equipped to deal with danger,” Yuan Yu said.
A Lv. 15 warrior was already very powerful in society, so it was very difficult for the poor Oilwind to hire stronger helpers.
…
In the dark of the night, Xu Jingming stood by the street, using his senses to lock onto Oilwind’s residence from afar.
“There’s no one. They’ve long gone into hiding,” Xu Jingming frowned slightly. Everything was as he had expected—Oilwind wouldn’t naively stay at home.
Xu Jingming turned around and left.
Moments later, on a dirty and dilapidated street, a cold wind blew, and some trash tumbled across the street. A shop facing the street still had its lights on.
Xu Jingming entered, stepping through the dirty water, but the filth couldn’t touch him at all.
Xu Jingming pushed open the gla.s.s door and walked into the shop.
A hunchbacked old man was watching a program on the projection with his eyes squinted.
“Take whatever you want to buy,” the hunchbacked elder said.
“Hunchbacked Seven, I need information on someone,” Xu Jingming said. Although he had kept a low profile for ten years, he could hear more than half of Jianghan City with his senses, and everything within five kilometers was crystal clear. Therefore, he had unknowingly learned many secrets over the years.
The hunchbacked elder looked at Xu Jingming in surprise and smiled, revealing his yellow teeth. “Who do you want investigated?”
“Oilwind Company’s boss, Oilwind,” Xu Jingming said. “I need to know where he is now.”
“I heard that he owes quite a bit. As for where? It will take a lot of manpower and resources to investigate,” the hunchbacked old man said. “I’ll help you investigate for three million! There will be no refund even if there’s no result after a month.”
“Alright.” Xu Jingming nodded.
Xu Jingming knew very well that this seemingly ordinary hunchbacked old man was actually a member of the Jiugu family, which was the best at intelligence gathering. The Jiugu family’s strength was ranked in the top three in the entire Eastern Cloud Nation.
“Transfer the money to my Myriad Species Bank account.” The hunchbacked elder quickly took out his account number.
Xu Jingming operated the projection on his watch and quickly transferred the money.
“In a month, our intelligence network will gather all the information on Oilwind. If we can’t find him, there’s nothing we can do,” the hunchbacked old man said. Even though he was confident that he had the strongest intelligence network in Eastern Cloud, he didn’t dare say that he could definitely locate a person.
Xu Jingming nodded slightly. “There’s one more thing. I want to buy a body tempering technique.”
“Buying a body-tempering technique?” The hunchbacked old man looked at Xu Jingming and shook his head repeatedly. “Body-tempering techniques are copyrighted and belong to various factions. I can’t sell them here.”
Pirated body tempering techniques were taboo and a violation of copyrights. The other factions would retaliate in response.
However, a genuine body tempering technique was too expensive! Naturally, pirated versions appeared. After all, words and video content could be replicated easily.
“I want the largest package—three legendary body tempering techniques and 25 master body tempering techniques!” Xu Jingming said, clearly familiar with the process.
The hunchbacked old man looked at Xu Jingming in surprise and smiled. “It looks like you are quite knowledgeable. Then, I won’t hide it and explain the situation in advance. Although these 28 body tempering techniques don’t include paramount body tempering techniques, every one of them is not bad.”
Xu Jingming nodded in agreement.
A legendary body tempering technique referred to a technique that had previously created a Level 20 Legendary warrior.
A master body tempering technique meant that it had created a Lv. 18 martial arts master.
“My body tempering techniques are all pirated copies, so you can’t make them public. Once you use them publicly, it’ll bring trouble, and you’ll have to bear the consequences,” the hunchbacked elder warned.
Xu Jingming nodded. “I understand the rules.”
“Genuine body tempering techniques are very expensive. The more pirated copies you buy, the higher the discount. Twenty-eight complete body tempering techniques only cost 56 million.” The hunchbacked old man smiled at Xu Jingming. “Transfer the money to the account I gave you.”
Xu Jingming didn’t hesitate to transfer the money.
“Alright, it’s done.” He looked at the other party.
Both parties had accounts with the Myriad Species Bank, known for its ‘confidentiality and security.’ Even if an entire species was eradicated, the Myriad Species Bank remained standing.
Xu Jingming’s income was very high. As a Lv. 15 warrior, he was considered one of the upper echelons of society! He was the highest-ranking coach at the Black Fire Club, teaching 150 students in three cla.s.ses, and his monthly tuition fee alone was nearly two million. Coupled with his one-on-one private tutoring and the advertising fees he got from the club for licensing his ‘portrait rights,’ his income this year was nearly 30 million.
“Simple and easy,” the hunchbacked old man said, taking out a storage device from a box. “There are 28 body tempering methods inside. Return them to me after you make a copy of them.”
Xu Jingming took the storage device and connected it to his watch. The watch immediately began recording the information, and Xu Jingming read it.
“Very good.” Xu Jingming returned the storage device.
“Our doors are always open. You know that I have plenty of good stuff here,” the hunchbacked elder said with a smile.
This young man was so familiar with everything, so he clearly knew the rules here. He also welcomed such customers.
Xu Jingming was also very satisfied.
Not only were genuine body tempering techniques expensive, but the different factions also added all kinds of additional conditions.
Piracy made things simple; it cost less than 10% and had no additional conditions. Of course, it had its flaws. On the one hand, it couldn’t be made public, and at the same time, there was no master to guide the student. Without a master’s guidance, it was very difficult to cultivate a body tempering technique to an extremely high level.
Of course, Xu Jingming—who had already surpa.s.sed all the warriors in the history of the seven human countries after ten years of cultivation—was only using these body tempering techniques as a reference.
I’ve obtained 28 body tempering techniques. Xu Jingming walked out of the shop onto the street and was in a good mood. That’s enough for me to research for two to three years. I still have to think of a way to help my parents resolve the problem of Oilwind.
After descending into this world and becoming the son of Jing Yulong and his wife, Xu Jingming would naturally play the role of a ‘son.’ It was impossible for him to allow a.s.sa.s.sins to threaten his parents.
