Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 363: Chapter 363: You Don’t Respect the Martial Arts Code

The Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol, Lin Dong had never heard of it.

At the moment, he turned to Qiao Renyi and asked, ”What efficacy does this Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol, you speak of, have?”

”Lin Dong, you must be aware that in this world, there are women with special body constitutions. After all, you are quite familiar with my daughter, Qiao Bing. You know my daughter Qiao Bing has a Flawless Constitution...” Qiao Renyi said.

Lin Dong naturally knew.

Not just Qiao Bing, but several other women he knew also possessed special constitutions.

Sister Bai Jue had the Soft Bone Constitution, Ye Linglong had the Nine Yin physique, and as for Li Qingcheng, she had the Hundred Flowers Constitution.

Each constitution had its own unique aspects.

”Didn’t you say you were going to tell me about the cultivation method? How did it come to this?” Lin Dong said coldly.

Qiao Renyi hurriedly said, ”Because this Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol is related to this.”

”The Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol can only be cultivated by those with the Nine Dragons Constitution and Nine Yang Body.”

”Using the Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol, and combining with those women with special constitutions, can enhance one’s cultivation level...”

Hearing this, Lin Dong understood.

Although this Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol was not as profound as his Nine Shift Longevity secret, in this Age of Dharma End, it was a cultivation method far better than merely absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

For Lin Dong, it could be used to supplement his cultivation of the Nine Shift Longevity secret.

”Where is the Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol?” Lin Dong asked.

”If I give it to you, can you let me off the hook?” Qiao Renyi looked at Lin Dong nervously.

Now he was like fish meat on the chopping board, and Lin Dong held the knife; he had no choice but to bow his head to Lin Dong.

After considering for a moment, Lin Dong said, ”Okay, give me the Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol. I can let you go.”

A joy appeared on Qiao Renyi’s face.

Although the Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol was an ancient secret and extremely precious, he could not use it himself. If he could exchange it for his life, then it was worth it for him.

He took out a sheepskin scroll from his body, which recorded the cultivation method of the Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol.

He then handed this sheepskin scroll to Lin Dong.

This was somewhat unexpected for Lin Dong; he had not thought that Qiao Renyi would actually carry it with him.

”Where did you get this thing from?” Lin Dong asked curiously.

At this point, Qiao Renyi was quite forthcoming, ”It is actually a secret treasure of the Hall of Dark King, which I secretly stole.”

”The Hall of Dark King does not know yet that it was stolen by me.”

Lin Dong: ”...”

He was quite speechless about this Qiao Renyi. This bastard was indeed very bad, behaving shamelessly everywhere.

After giving the Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol to Lin Dong, Qiao Renyi said, ”Then I’m leaving.”

As he was about to leave, Lin Dong patted his shoulder and said, ”Take it slow.”

”You... You wouldn’t be going back on your word, would you?” Qiao Renyi’s face changed drastically, and he said loudly.

Lin Dong laughingly said, ”No, I just have some other things to ask you.”

”Oh? What else do you want to ask me?” Qiao Renyi said somewhat impatiently, but he could only stand obediently and wait for Lin Dong to continue his questioning.

Lin Dong blinked and said, ”I’m curious, why did you betray Longmen before? Uncle Long Ying said that my father treated you quite well.”

”Furthermore, I don’t understand why you abandoned your wife and daughter and ran off to the Southern Capital to become a Door-to-Door Son-in-law? To endure those humiliations?”

Upon hearing Lin Dong’s question, Qiao Renyi also fell into a reminiscence.

He clenched his teeth and replied, ”The reason I betrayed your father, betrayed Longmen, was because your father killed the woman I loved most.”

”I had fallen in love with a woman from the Hall of Dark King. She incited me to commit acts that betrayed Longmen. Your father found out and killed her right in front of me.”

”I even knelt and begged him, but your father showed me no mercy.”

”Do you have any idea how much I hated him then?”

Lin Dong was startled, his worldview shaken by the reasons for his betrayal of his father.

”The woman you loved belonged to a force hostile to Longmen. Moreover, she committed acts that endangered Longmen. Your father, as the master of Longmen, discovered this. Do you really think he shouldn’t have killed her?”

Qiao Renyi ground his teeth and said, ”She was just a woman... as the master of Longmen, he could have given me face, spared her life.”

Lin Dong laughed outright, ”Why should he have spared her? If it were me, I would have killed you along with her at the time.”

”For traitors, there is no need for mercy.”

Qiao Renyi was taken aback, shocked by the ruthlessness in Lin Dong’s heart.

Lin Dong then continued to ask, ”Then why did you abandon your wife and daughter to run off to Southern Capital?”

Qiao Renyi said harshly, ”I never loved that Chu Yunxiu, being with her was a complete mistake.”

”I couldn’t stand that woman!”

”Moreover, I came to Southern Capital for a purpose. On one hand, I had joined the Hall of Dark King and was made the Leader of Jiangnan Division. On the other hand, I aimed to investigate your father’s whereabouts in Southern Capital through people from Longmen, such as Long Ying and Bai Zhonglou.”

”As for why I chose to become the Sun Family’s door-to-door son-in-law, it’s because such an identity makes it convenient for me to stay hidden.”

”No one would imagine that a ’trash’ door-to-door son-in-law is actually the leader of the Hall of Dark King in the Southern District, let alone that I am a Wushu expert capable of entering the Dragon Rankings...”

After listening to Qiao Renyi’s explanation, Lin Dong understood everything completely.

”The people of the Hall of Dark King are quite good at hiding their identities. I have one last question for you, and then you can go,” Lin Dong said.

Hearing this, Qiao Renyi was delighted and blurted out.

”What question?”

”Who is the Saint Heir of the Hall of Dark King? And is he in Southern Capital now?”

As soon as these words were uttered, Qiao Renyi’s complexion changed.

”What, you don’t wish to answer?” Lin Dong sneered.

Qiao Renyi replied with an ugly expression, ”It’s not that I don’t want to answer, I have nothing to hide now.”

”But because I don’t know about it either.”

”Nonetheless, I can confirm that he should be in Southern Capital. As for who he is or where exactly he is, I have no clue.”

”Okay, I’ve got it,” Lin Dong nodded, smiled, and said, ”Now, you can go in peace.”

At these words, Qiao Renyi’s face lit up with joy as he prepared to leave.

But at that moment, the Qi Sword in Lin Dong’s hand made a slicing sound, and before Qiao Renyi could react, it directly slashed his throat.

Staring at the gushing blood from his own throat, Qiao Renyi was stunned.

Clutching at his wound, he said in a trembling, intermittent voice, ”You... didn’t you say... I could go?”

”Heh, when I said ’go’, I meant ’pass away’. Telling you to go was saying you should die, do you understand?” Lin Dong shrugged as he spoke.

At the moment when his throat was slit and blood gushed out, Qiao Renyi, upon hearing these words, became so enraged that the blood from his throat sprayed three feet high.

He roared, ”You... you beast, have no martial morals!!!”
