God-Like Extraction

“Yes.”

On the other end of the line, Shen Qian hesitated for a moment before answering, “I wouldn’t dare to lie to you, Senior. Leng Lin’s discovery was purely an accident, we didn’t expect it to attract so much trouble.

“Now that he’s been targeted, he changed his address, he doesn’t dare to go online or go out.

“The few of us wanted to help, but our abilities are limited. After a few futile attempts, we thought of you and would like to ask you for a favor.

“Rest assured, Senior. We are willing to pay you five million Great Yu dollars as payment.”

We’ll talk about the money later,” Su Jingxing cut her off. “How do you want me to help?”

“Clear all of Leng Lin’s online posts!”

Shen Qian said quickly, “His information has been dug up by several major factions. Leng Lin said that he hopes to get rid of all his information once and for all and become an unregistered resident.”

“Sure.”

Su Jingxing stifled a laugh. “T’ll fulfill his wish! However, before that, pass me a copy of his information. Also, send me a copy of the photo taken of the stone tablet. A million Great Yu dollars will suffice for the fee.”

“Alright, Senior. We’ll transfer the money immediately,”

Shen Qian hung up excitedly and went about her work.

On this side.

Su Jingxing returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain and switched on his computer. He received a notification that he had received a transfer of a million Great Yu dollars to his account, a photo, and a copy of an individual’s personal information.

Leng Lin, male, 28, works at a computer company. Low-profile and introverted.

After searching the information online, Su Jingxing realized that it was all over the Internet.

Even though Leng Lin was a computer expert, he was alone.

Faced with the team efforts from various major factions, all the information regarding Leng Lin from the moment he was born to starting work in the company had been dug up.

Had it not been for the fact that the fellow escaped quickly, he would have been caught red-handed in his rented house.

The only reason he wanted to become an unregistered resident was to escape to another city.

Of course, if Su Jingxing was willing to come forward and vouch for him, he wouldn’t have to be afraid of anything.

‘The question was, why should Su Jingxing vouch for him?

Before Shen Qian called, they had never even heard of each other, let alone know each other.

At the very least, Su Jingxing had no idea that such a person existed.

Vouch for him?

You’re dreaming.

The current situation is great. If they need help, they will have to pay.

It is purely a transactional relationship.

No one owes anyone anything.

Getting rid of a person’s information couldn’t be done for Shen Qian and the others, but it was easy for Su Jingxing.

Working hard on the computer, the identity Leng Lin disappeared from every system in Qinghe City in less than 20 minutes.

He had become a complete unregistered resident.

Su Jingxing had also cleaned up all the traces he left online.

All information regarding Leng Lin, which had been preserved by the major faction, was also erased.

Once he was done, Su Jingxing sent a message to Shen Qian.

Then, he clicked on the photo and looked at a stone tablet in the corner.

‘As the Sky Water River surged, the stone tablet floated on the surface of the water when the photo was captured

‘There was nothing special about it.

After zooming in on the photo, Su Jingxing carefully inspected the stone tablet and found that it was engraved with fine patterns.

Array formation patterns?

They also look a little like ancient text.

‘They were connected and attached to each other, but Su Jingxing couldn’t figure out what that meant.

He searched online and found that there were indeed many people discussing the stone tablet.

Some called it a tombstone, some called it a memorial tablet, and others called it a martial arts secret manual.

In short, there was lots of discussion centered around this stone tablet.

Even though the original post was gone, the discussion caused by the stone tablet had long spread to all the networks in Qinghe City.

Su Jingxing read for a while and realized that someone was deliberately guiding the discussions.

That’s right, deliberate guidance to maintain the popularity of this topic!

That is strange.

No one knew what exactly was the stone tablet, but people were hyping it up. What are they up to?

Qinghe City’s Third People’s Hospital.

Ina VIP room.

Lu Wuchang was sitting on the sofa, watching TV in boredom.

In the hospital bed next door, Lu Chen lay motionless.

The bed was connected to various devices, and the beeps sounded steadily.

At first glance, he seemed to have fallen asleep.

In reality, Lu Chen was already in a vegetative state.

Even though he wasn’t dead, he couldn’t move or wake up.

No one knew when he would wake up. All the doctors and medical experts who should have been called in had been there, and none of them could come up with a solution. All they could say was that everything depended on the situation.

In the vegetative state, some would wake up in a few months, and some wouldn’t even wake up for a few years.

Given the Lu family’s wealth, it wouldn’t be a problem for Lu Chen to even stay in bed for decades.

‘That wasn’t why Lu Wuchang was bored.

Before the incident with Lu Chen, he had warned him that death was certain.

Even though he wasn’t dead yet, becoming a vegetable was no different from dying.

Lu Wuchang called his parents and informed them of the situation. After Lu Chen’s parents came and confirmed that there was no longer any hope for him, they left Lu Chen in Qinghe City and went home by themselves.

It wasn’t that they were cold-blooded.

Instead, it was because the Lu Family had been at odds with the Zeng Family for the past half a year.

Lu Chen had tried to stir up trouble on his own, but ended up getting thrown into the river and hit his head on a rock, turning into a vegetable. If the Zeng Family found out about this, they would definitely use it as a weapon to attack the Lu Family.

Asa result, they had no choice but to hide Lu Chen in Qinghe City.

Lu Wuchang was mainly responsible for keeping an eye on Lu Chen and ensuring that no one from the Zeng Family discovered him.

At first, Lu Wuchang was extremely frustrated. However, once he went online and accidentally saw a photo, he immediately perked up and sent people out to investigate.

He was watching television in boredom purely because waiting was torturous for him.

However, as soon as his phone rang, Lu Wuchang sat up straight and answered the call. “How’s it? Have you figured out where it’s from?”

“Are you sure?”

“Good, very good!”

“Remember, no one is allowed to talk about this!”

“Someone is deliberately guiding the discussion online? Heh, looks like we aren’t the only ones who know what’s going on.”

It’s fine. Let them do it. It’ll save us a lot of trouble since they are willing to take action. Of course, you guys cant slack off either. Keep an eye on the situation in the city!”

After hanging up the call, Lu Wuchang stood up and paced around the room excitedly.

“Tsk, this is the will of the heavens.

“The opening of Qin King Mausoleum triggered the ruckus in the Sky Water River. The river waters surged violently, and some things buried at the bottom of the river were washed out.

“I’s truly a pleasant surprise for these things to see the light of day again.” Lu Wuchang sighed.

All of a sudden, his heart skipped a beat.

“What’s going on?”

Taken aback, Lu Wuchang asked, “Danger? Is there something wrong with that stone tablet?”

He couldn’t figure it out.

It was a magical omen, but it couldn’t fool anyone.

“An opportunity that comes with danger?” Lu Wuchang mused.

In the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

$u Jingxing did not hold on to the stone tablet.

Even though this thing was strange, it had nothing to do with him.

After browsing the Internet once more, Su Jingxing switched off his computer, washed up, and ate.

After eating, he would continue to temper his Martial Art True Intent and strive to open its eyes first.

‘The next day.

‘When he got to work at the crematorium, he patrolled the area once in a while as per his usual routine.

‘When it was almost noon, he bumped into Gu Bo, who was about to head out.

“Team Leader Gu, is there a field mission?” asked Su Jingxing, stepping forward.

“Yeah, the Martial Suppression Office called. They found a corpse,” replied Gu Bo. “Little Su, if you have nothing on, you can come with us.”

“Sure,” replied Su Jingxing happily.

He loved field missions!

He got into the corpse transportation truck and followed Gu Bo to the scene.

This time, it didn’t take place outside the city. Instead, it was in a hotel in the city.

‘The corpse was discovered by the hotel’s cleaners.

The state of the corpse was extremely strange.

As Su Jingxing and Gu Bo chatted on the way, they were still discussing how strange it could be.

‘When they arrived at the scene and saw the corpse in the hotel room, they finally understood what it meant to be strange.

Amummy!

The deceased had turned into a mummy.

Not to mention fresh blood, even the moisture on his body had vanished entirely.

“How… how did this happen?”

Gu Bo was left speechless.

He was an experienced worker in the crematorium, and had seen countless corpses. He had seen all kinds of tragic situations, but this was his first time seeing a corpse like this.

“Tm not sure.”

Qi Zhaochen, who was in charge of the scene, said with a grim expression, “From the marks on the corpse, it seems like it was beaten up.”

“A martial arts expert?” asked Gu Bo, stunned. “What kind of martial artist could wipe out a person’s moisture and blood?”

“It could also have been done through absorption,” Su Jingxing couldn’t help but interject.

At the same time, he racked his brains.

Vampire? Art of Essence Absorption”? Dark North Divine Art2?

In any case, the cause of death of this corpse was very strange.

For this reason, Su Jingxing and Gu Bo waited instead of taking the corpse away immediately.

‘They waited for personnel of even higher rank from the Martial Suppression Office to come and check on the situation,

Due to the strangeness of the corpse, it was easy to associate it with martial artists who cultivated heretic arts.

Heretic martial artists were the focus of the Martial Suppression Office’s surveillance.

Every heretic martial artist was an unstable element that needed to be watched closely.

Therefore, even though Qi Zhaochen had called the crematorium, Gu Bo and Su Jingxing had to wait.

Fortunately, after waiting for a while, Sun Ye, the Chief of Control of Martial Suppression Office Western District Branch, arrived at the scene.

After examining the corpse, Sun Ye frowned and also called his superior.

Li Linzhou!

Amummy-like corpse was too strange.

As a precaution, it was best for the head of the Martial Suppression Office, Li Linzhou, to have a look.

In terms of experience and strength, Li Linzhou was the strongest.

Su Jingxing didn’t care about that.

When no one was looking, he put his right hand behind his back and took out the card he had extracted.

He held it in his palm and read its description.

‘True Energy Card!

He extracted a True Energy Card with 21 years of cultivation from this mummy-like corpse.

21 years of true energy cultivation.

This meant that the victim’s true energy cultivation had been extremely profound when they were alive.

‘They were either in fourth-grade, fifth-grade, and even the kind with over 50 years of cultivation.

Su Jingxing was pleased with the card, even though what he wanted the most was a Memory Card.

Unfortunately.

“Make way! Make way, all of you!”

A bellow suddenly came from outside, breaking Su Jingxing’s train of thought.

Silently, he put the card away.

Su Jingxing looked at Sun Ye. Sure enough, the latter’s face sank, and he turned around to leave the room.

“Who’s messing around…”

Boom!

The air suddenly exploded, creating a massive whirlwind.

It swept from the outside of the room all the way in. Everywhere it passed, the staff of the Martial Suppression Office would stagger backward.

Gu Bo even fell flat on his butt.

Seeing this, Su Jingxing took a few steps back and leaned against the wall.

‘At the same time, he looked up at the door, ready to see which big shot dared to disregard the Martial Suppression Office.

“You’re Sun Ye, aren’t you? Get out of my way!”

Atall and burly figure walked through the door. Pointing at Sun Ye, she cursed without restraint. “I’m not in the mood to play along with you. If you don’t want to die, get out of my way!”

‘The comers of Sun Ye’s lips twitched. Resisting the urge to burst out, he took a step back.

‘The comers of Qi Zhaochen’s eyes also twitched at the sight of the person.

Even Gu Bo gaped in shock.

Meanwhile Su Jingxing was simply puzzled.

‘Wang Tiedao!

‘The Patriarch of the Wang Family, a woman who was even more manly than a man, and had countless male concubines, Boss Wang, Wang Tiedao had charged here. What was she up to?

Amidst Su Jingxing’s amazement, she heard a sorrowful, angry, and shocked howl.

“Junior Sister!”

“Who did it? Who did this?!”

“Tm gonna kill him! I’m gonna kill him! Ahhh!” roared Boss Wang.

When Sun Ye, Qi Zhaochen, and the others heard this, their expressions changed drastically.

This time, Su Jingxing’s heart also skipped a beat.

Junior Sister?

The corpse that had turned into a mummy was Wang Tiedao’s junior sister?

Most people in Qinghe City knew about Wang Tiedao’s identity and experiences.

An ordinary person who obtained the Profound Water Pearl by chance and was taken in as a disciple by an elder of the Hundred Flower Valley. From then on, she gained a powerful backer and did not need to fear others.

After more than 10 years of hard work, Wang Tiedao had managed to build up a Wang Family which was equally famous alongside the Li and Zhou Families.

Even though their foundations could not be compared, the Wang Family’s influence, network of experts, and the power they controlled weren’t any weaker than the Zhou Family due to Wang Tiedao’s identity.

What was the most important part of Wang Tiedao’s identity?

‘The Hundred Flower Valley!

Someone she could address as “Junior Sister” had to be a member of the Hundred Flower Valley.

A disciple from Hundred Flower Valley had been killed and turned into a mummy?

Sun Ye and Qi Zhaochen felt dizzy at the thought.

‘There was only one thought in their minds.

This is serious!

Unlike the Jade Sword Sect and the Divine Fist Sect, the Hundred Flower Valley was a big sect with a legacy of a thousand years.

In the entire Yu Nation, and even in the surrounding countries, it was a reputable and powerful organization.

Even the Golden Chen Family and Ci En Bank paled in comparison.

This sect, which had comprised women since a thousand years ago, was the most unreasonable and fearless.

And now, a female disciple of Hundred Flower Valley had been reduced to a mummy.

From this, one could well imagine how enraged the Hundred Flower Valley would be!

“How did this happen?” murmured Sun Ye almost dreamily.

Now that a disciple of Hundred Flower Valley had died in Qinghe City, things were about to get lively in the city.

Swoosh!

Sound of breaking wind came from outside the window.

A figure flew in through the window.

“What’s going on?”

Li Linzhou’s sleeves fluttered in the wind. Frowning, he asked, “What kind of thread was found on the victim’s body…”

“You died a tragic death, Junior Sister!”

Wang Tiedao broke down in tears, cutting Li Linzhou off.

Recognizing Wang Tiedao, Li Linzhou wanted to offer some words of consolation, but his expression changed drastically upon hearing her words.

Junior Sister?

A disciple of the Hundred Flower Valley?

How could that be!

Li Linzhou was momentarily stunned.
