I Can See Through Everything

After settling Mrs. Wei and her son, Lu Qing left Mago's residence.

There was nothing more he could help with.

As long as Mrs. Wei and her son stayed quietly in the house and didn't attract attention, there shouldn't be any major problems.

Mrs. Wei's body would fully recover with time after taking two drops of the medicinal liquid, so he didn't need to provide extra treatment.

So Lu Qing, having accomplished his task, left directly.

Walking on the way home, Lu Qing felt relaxed.

This mountain trip, although it had some unexpected events, it was a good thing that he could repay his debt to the Wei family.

"Xiao Li, it's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to deal with that person in the end."

Lu Qing scratched Xiao Li, who was standing on his shoulder, making it squint its eyes comfortably.

"Howl~" Xiao Li called out proudly.

"I know, I know, I'll give you plenty of fish when we get back," Lu Qing laughed.

After getting the promise, Xiao Li was satisfied and lay down on Lu Qing's shoulder.

Seeing Xiao Li's lazy appearance, Lu Qing couldn't help but laugh.

Who would have thought that such a cute little thing could actually be a terrifying spirit beast capable of easily killing even Internal Organs Realm experts?

Thinking of the aura Wang Qingshan erupted with before his death, Lu Qing still felt a bit frightened.

But such a powerful warrior was still no match for Xiao Li.

With the talent of invisibility and astonishing speed, plus its invincible claws and fangs, Xiao Li was truly terrifying.

Even Internal Organs Realm experts found it hard to withstand its attack.

After all, though the bodies of Internal Organs Realm experts were strong, they were still not as good as real tempered steel.

Xiao Li's claws could easily cut through steel, how could Internal Organs Realm warriors resist?

Lu Qing wondered if even Precelestial Realm experts could withstand Xiao Li's claws.

But the abilities of Precelestial Realm experts were far beyond those of Postnatal Realm, so whether Xiao Li's invisibility would still be effective against them was hard to say, so this hypothesis was just something to think about.

Back home, Lu Qing first served a plate of fish for Xiao Li to eat.

Then he started cooking his own meal.

He had given all his rations to Mago and Young Master Wei, leaving him without food for the whole day.

He cooked something casually, and by the time it was ready to eat, Xiao Li had already eaten most of its fish.

Seeing it still eating heartily, Lu Qing shook his head with a smile.

Unfortunately, he hadn't been able to catch any more rare fish lately.

That rare fishing spot seemed to have no more rare fish coming.

Otherwise, he could reward this little guy well.

Maybe he should find some time to look for a new good fishing spot.

Lu Qing thought while eating.

After eating and drinking their fill, Xiao Li went to sleep in its little nest.

Today, Xiao Yan was at the Halfway House, and it was already late at night, so Lu Qing wasn't in a hurry to pick her up.

He thought for a moment and took his basket, starting to rummage through it.

After killing Tong Canglang and Wang Qingshan during the day, he found some items on their bodies.

He hadn't had time to look closely then, but now he could see what they had.

After searching for a while, Lu Qing laid out all the items on the table.

There weren't many things, mostly silver notes and a small amount of gold and silver.

The rest were a piece of leather armor, a few medicine bottles, and a piece of skin Parchment made of unknown material.

After all, Wang Qingshan and Tong Canglang had entered the mountains with tasks, so they naturally wouldn't carry too many things.

There were no martial arts manuals or the like, which Lu Qing wasn't surprised about.

Except for those without a sect, most people wouldn't carry their manuals with them.

Especially those with a master, their sects wouldn't allow them to take manuals out.

Otherwise, it would only expose their martial arts and weaknesses.

Ignoring the silver notes and gold, Lu Qing focused on the other items.

He first looked at the piece of leather armor.

The leather armor was from Tong Canglang's body, a broken piece from his armor.

Lu Qing had long been curious about the leather armor Tong Canglang wore.

He wanted to know what it was made of that it could withstand his sword strikes.

Lu Qing concentrated on the leather armor.

Soon, a light white with a hint of red energy glowed from the armor.

[Tattered Leather Armor: A piece of leather armor made from the skin of a White-Horned Bull, with amazing defense, capable of blocking swords and blades.]

[The White-Horned Bull is a strange beast living in the deep mountains of the northern frontier. Its skin is sought after by many warriors for its remarkable defense, leading to its near extinction.]

"White-Horned Bull?"

After reading the information about the tattered leather armor, Lu Qing understood.

It turned out that the leather armor worn by Tong Canglang was made from the skin of a strange beast, no wonder its defense was astonishing.

Unfortunately, the armor had been damaged by him.

Plus, he had to leave quickly and Mago was watching, so he felt awkward stripping a corpse, otherwise, he would have brought the whole armor back.

Putting the tattered leather armor aside, Lu Qing turned his attention to the medicine bottles.

The medicine bottles were found on Wang Qingshan and Tong Canglang, and since they were closely guarded by these two sect disciples, the medicines inside must be rare.

The bottles were similar in design, with only slight differences, likely mass-produced by the Tian Cang Sect.

Without labels on the bottles, Lu Qing couldn't tell what was inside.

He directly used his ability to look.

A white light appeared.

[White Porcelain Medicine Bottle: A high-quality bottle that can preserve the medicinal effects of pills well.]

[It seems to contain good cultivation pills.]

Sure enough, the bottles contained pills.

Lu Qing picked up one bottle from Tong Canglang and shook it, hearing a slight clinking sound inside.

He took a bowl from the kitchen, placed it on the table, and carefully opened the bottle, pouring its contents into the bowl.

There were seven or eight pills sealed with beeswax.

Lu Qing used his ability to check, confirming it was beeswax before picking one up.

He couldn't be blamed for being cautious.

Human hearts are unpredictable, and Tong Canglang wasn't a good person, who knew if he had tampered with the pills?

In case he had poisoned the beeswax to prevent theft, it wasn't impossible.

Carefully peeling off the beeswax, revealing a red pill inside, Lu Qing used his ability to examine it.

A light red glow rose from the pill.

"Red light?"

Seeing the light from the pill, Lu Qing's eyes showed a trace of joy.

Although not completely red, anything with red light wouldn't be bad.

[Tendon Strengthening Pill: A precious pill, non-toxic, safe to consume.]

[This pill is made from tiger bone, deer tendons, ginseng, and other precious herbs. It greatly benefits the tendons and bones, an excellent aid for Tendons and Bones Realm warriors.]

[Take one pill per day at most; taking more can accumulate pill toxins and harm the body.]

"Tendon Strengthening Pill, a Tendons and Bones Realm pill?"

Seeing the information from the pill, Lu Qing was overjoyed.

This was indeed an unexpected surprise.

This pill was far better than the decoction made from the recipe given by his master.

He was now in the Tendons and Bones Realm and could use it well.

Looking at the four bottles, two were from Tong Canglang.

He opened the other bottle and found it was also filled with Tendon Strengthening Pills.

And this bottle was full, with eighteen pills.

In total, he had gained twenty-five Tendon Strengthening Pills, enough for a month's training.

A month...

Thinking about his rapid progress in recent days.

With the help of these Tendon Strengthening Pills, Lu Qing couldn't imagine how far he could progress in the Tendons and Bones Realm in a month.

"Indeed, a horse doesn't get fat without night grazing, and a person doesn't get rich without windfall. Tong Canglang really gave me a big gift."

Lu Qing, delighted, turned his attention to the other two bottles.

If the pills carried by Tong Canglang were so surprising.

Then the pills carried by his senior brother, the much stronger Internal Organs Realm expert Wang Qingshan, must be extraordinary.

He immediately opened one of the bottles.

Inside were pills also sealed with beeswax.

Lu Qing peeled off a bit and found the pill inside was pearl-like, milky white.

He used his ability to check.

A faint red light emerged from the pill.

[Qi Nourishing Pill: A precious pill, non-toxic, safe to consume.]

[This pill is made from Yunmeng Fruit, Snow Lotus, and other precious herbs. It has a strong effect on nurturing the body's vitality, an excellent aid for Internal Organs Realm warriors.]

[One pill per day is best; taking more wastes the medicinal power.]

Red light pill!

Seeing the light from the pill, Lu Qing's hand trembled.

After reading the information, he was even more delighted.

As expected, the pills carried by the Internal Organs Realm expert Wang Qingshan were more precious.

Specially aiding Internal Organs Realm cultivation.

Lu Qing saw that the remaining two bottles were also Qi Nourishing Pills.

And nearly full, with thirty pills in total!

Enough

for a whole month of cultivation after he breaks through to the Internal Organs Realm.

Looking at the four bottles of pills on the table, Lu Qing, though delighted, also felt a bit wary.

Wang Qingshan and Tong Canglang could carry these precious pills, with identical bottle designs.

Indicating these pills were likely not self-made.

They were probably resources granted by their sect or master.

In any case, allowing sect disciples to use such precious pills for cultivation showed the Tian Cang Sect's depth.

And he had killed two disciples of such a sect.

Once the news spread, it would be a huge trouble.

Then, he might have to flee immediately.

It seemed he should stay in the village for now and avoid entering the mountains.

Lu Qing decided.

After all, with so many Tendon Strengthening Pills, he didn't need to enter the mountains to gather herbs for a long time.

With this decision, Lu Qing turned his attention to the last item.

It was a piece of skin Parchment found on Wang Qingshan.

At that time, Wang Qingshan had hidden it carefully, its color close to human skin, almost unnoticed.

Anything guarded so closely by Wang Qingshan couldn't be ordinary.

Lu Qing focused on the skin Parchment.

A rich red light emerged from it.

[Precelestial Human Skin Parchment: Skin Parchment made from the skin of a Precelestial Realm warrior, resistant to blades and fire.]

[It is said that the bodies of Precelestial Realm warriors, nurtured by Precelestial Qi, have unique properties valuable to certain sinister minds.]

[Technique found. Download simulation for learning?]

Seeing the information from the skin Parchment, Lu Qing was stunned.

He didn't expect the Parchment to be made from human skin, and from a Precelestial Realm warrior no less.

He wondered which unlucky Precelestial Realm warrior had their skin peeled off after death.

Seeing the ability's prompt, Lu Qing hesitated.

Honestly, a technique recorded on human skin made him feel uneasy.

He turned the Parchment over several times but found no writing.

Not even a hidden layer.

Making it impossible to understand the technique beforehand.

No wonder Wang Qingshan kept the Parchment close.

Though it was unclear how he got it, he clearly recognized its uniqueness.

So he carried it with him, trying to unlock its secrets.

Whether he figured anything out was unknown, but Lu Qing couldn't discern anything without his ability.

This left Lu Qing conflicted.

However, after some thought, he decided to download the technique first.

Whether to learn it would depend on the technique.

With that thought, Lu Qing chose to download.

Then he stared at the Parchment.

[Downloading, progress: 1%, 2%, 3%...]

Though he saw nothing, the ability indicated the Parchment did contain a technique.

[...97%, 98%, 99%, 100%, download complete. Simulate?]

Lu Qing chose to simulate.

[Simulating, progress: 1%, 2%, 3%...99%, 100%]

[Simulation complete. Learn?]

This time, Lu Qing didn't hesitate and chose to learn.

The next moment, familiar insights flooded his mind, and he closed his eyes to absorb them.

After a while, he returned from the state of enlightenment, his eyes full of astonishment.

"What a sinister technique, befitting one recorded on human skin."

"But despite its sinister nature, it's truly powerful!"

"Moreover, this technique complements my Four Directions Blade perfectly!"
