Chapter 9: Tiger Shaped Magical Arts
writer:xi.hong.shi      update:2022-06-28 17:16
  ‘When I was seven years old, I attended the hellish training camp in Siberia. At the time my body had not yet developed; so being under the pressure of training it was greatly affected. Later on I joined the Master to practice the Internal Arts. When I was young, I didn’t have any potential and I lacked too much, even though I had reached the maximum internal force; but in comparison with Dole Goth Grove, my body’s limits as well as fitness were still a little worse. “ 

  Not reaching the higher realm, most people only achieved their physical limits, and could not advance further. 

  Training was required to have different levels. 

  Like some athletes, in order to achieve good results, they had to train regularly to achieve medals. When they were young, they made many great achievements but as they aged their bodies collapsed. 

  Of course, the level of training of athletes was not too exaggerated. 

  For example, some Muay Thai trainers, were very crazy; like a machine. When they were 20 years old, they were really dangerous but many of them could not live until 40. Even though they were able to live longer, they might have to hold a stick! Because their potential had been squeezed too much; even their vitality was consumed out. 

  The Internal Arts were so diverse! 

  China’s Internal Arts was magical because the first purpose of this kind of Art was caring for health, not murdering. 

  After health, there was killing. 

  A Muay Thai master could only live until the age of 40. However, according to an internal Arts master, 40-year-old was exactly the pinnacle moment. Especially, as an Internal Arts master, even at the age of 80 or 90, he would have strong potential which terrified everyone. If a master had not died from fighting, he would have lived more than a hundred years. 

  Everyone could easily understand the health effects of the Internal Arts. 

  Of course, in the world, there was a long history of ancient Indian Yoga, which also had a magical effect. Even though, Indian Yoga was not as strong as the Internal Arts, the Internal Arts was of a higher degree of difficulty. The Indian Yoga was on a lower level so there were more practitioners. Of course, at the SS level all over the world, in other words, masters whose level was in the higher realm, the vast majority of people practiced the Internal Arts. 

  “Once you reach the higher realm, you can transcend human limits.” 

  Teng Qing Shan couldn’t help but smile. 

  The Internal Arts meant being able to completely control every muscle. 

  The higher realm of Internal Arts meant being able to control and use all the energy of muscles, veins, and bones. That was the reason why a master could send out a stronger fist despite having the same body as others. 

  “But step by step practicing “Three-body”,”five elements skill”, “Twelve-shaped” day by day, to strengthen bones, improve veins’ toughness, strengthen muscles’ density, this was too slow.” Teng Qing Shan sighed loudly, “Fortunately, he taught me the strongest secret trick of Xing Yi Quan named “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts.” 

  There were various kinds of Internal Arts in China. In addition to three major Internal Arts, there was Baji Quan, Tong Bei Quan, Wuzu Arts, Wing Chun and so on, and many other Arts. 

  But why could Xing Yi Quan, Bagua, and Tai Chi be called “the Three Strongest Internal Arts” while other kinds of Arts were at a lower level? 

  Other skills could not reach the higher realm, could they? Not really. Other sects had also produced masters, and had many practitioners. 

  The real difference is the strength between the Masters! 

  The ‘Three Strong Internal Arts’ masters were normally stronger than other Internal Arts’ masters! In other Internal Arts, after reaching “the higher realm”, you had to improve yourself step by step through practice. However, each sect of “Three Strong Internal Arts” had a particular secret Skill. After reaching the higher realm, they could attend to practice those secret skills! 

  The secret skills could make the ability of master develop quickly, and only could only be practiced by those that have reached the higher realm. 

  They distinguished that Xing Yi Quan ‘s secret skill was “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts”, TaiChi’s secret skill was “Basaltic Rock of Strength”, and Bagua’s secret trick was “Changeable Ichthyosaurs”. 

  “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts” was taught by a master of Xing Yi Quan named “Ji Jike,” who lived in the late Ming period. In the legends, Ji Jike lived with a tiger, he fed the tiger, and he even slept with the tiger. 

  After observing a long time, finally, at the age of hundred, he created a unique Secret Technique called “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts.” 

  Concerning bones, tiger bones were the most famous. Using their bones to make wine was very healthy for your kidney. Tigers had very powerful effects. 

  Practicing “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts” was like becoming a tiger, you had to improve your bones’ toughness. 

  In order to practice “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts”, you had to reach the higher realm as well as be skillful at “Tiger Fist” in “Twelve Shapes of Tiger Shapes”. This trick was only taught to the central disciples. 

  “At first, try to see.” 

  Teng Qing Shan suddenly bent his body down and laid on the ground like a tiger. Despite having laid on the ground,only his hands and legs touched the ground. The muscles in his body didn’t tremble even a little though he had to control his breathing, interior strength and so on. 

  Sometimes his back slightly arched, sometimes it bent down. At that moment, his spine was like a dragon which flew and hid behind a cloud. 

  In the raising and lowering process of the spine, muscles in his hands and legs were functioning. 

  Breathing and interior strength must co-ordinate perfectly. 

  Strength passed from his fingers’ phalanx to his arms and constantly transmitted to all his body. Breathing led to all the organs’ moving. The strong energy of his interior strength even caused bone tremors. Teng Qing Shan constantly made adjustments. He tried his best to reach the state mentioned in “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts”. 

  The action seemed to be simple but in fact it was really complex! 

  In comparison with all “12 types of Xing Yi”, this was much more difficult. With just a wrong breath you failed. Controlling the internal strength in a wrong way also meant failure. 

  He endlessly did experiments and made adjustments! 

  He coordinated various aspects until he achieved perfection. 

  “Whew. Whew……” Teng Qing Shan turned his body around and stood up, having perceived the force on his body, his eyes brightened “I never thought that practicing one day can improve my strength so much. My physical fitness has developed at least 20 percent.” 

  Teng Qing Shan clearly noticed this increase. 

  He also knew that, usually, the first time you practiced, you would have the clearest change in your body. Later, it wouldn’t be as noticeable. 

  Patriarch Ji, who created the secret Technique “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts” was incredible. The action which appeared to be simple, was in fact extremely complicated. The secret skill was exactly taking acts of a sleeping tiger. However, in comparison with all Tiger Fists in Twelve Arts, the secret skill was the most complex by ten times, or even a hundred times. 

  The movement of the body was coordinated with breathing, the interior strength functioning, controlling bones and other aspects, did not know how long had Patriarch Ji been doing experiments and creating. 

  Teng Qing Shan was really moved. 

  Even though, the founder of Xing Yi Quan was unknown Ji Jike was exactly the master who was on the highest status in the history of Xing Yi Quan. Many Xing Yi disciples regarded him as “Xing Yi founder.” 

  *** 

  Time flew by as Teng Qing Shan was completely immersed in the “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts”. His physical fitness had developed with an incredible speed. This incredible speed made Teng Qing Shan strongly admire Ji Jike. 

  15 days later. 

  In this half month, from the start of having practiced “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts”, Teng Qing Shan’s physical fitness could improve from ten to twenty percent. To the fifteenth day, the increase was barely noticed. However, in comparison with last fifteen days, Teng Qing Shan’s physical fitness could be said to have improved by twice as much before. Although his physical fitness improved, his real Internal strength improved far more in comparison. 

  “I have been immersed in practicing “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts,” and forgot my brother “Qing Jiang”. Teng Qing Shan smiled. 

  In fact, at the time he hid in the country, Teng Qing Shan was worried about being killed by “Sharpshooter” and “Broken body aircraft”. Thus, he was eager to meeting his brother “Qing Jiang” before the fight. 

  And now…… 

  After having reached the higher realm, Teng Qing Shan started to practice “The Tiger Shaped Magical Arts”. It was possible to say that he stood at the pinnacle of the world. His present strength was stronger by ten times. 

  Of course, Teng Qing Shan was not in a hurry. 

  “At first, I should investigate a little about the outside situation.” Teng Qing Shan came into his room, turned on the computer and connected to the network, then used the same approach and contacted ‘Elena’. 

  “Elena!” Teng Qing Shan typed the keyboard. 

  A moment later – 

  “Ah, Wolf. Finally, you contact me! It has been a month, I thought you had died, too.” 

  From a far distance in London, England, Elena, barefoot, sat before her computer, and swung her white-skinned foot as she typed and vented her dissatisfaction. 

  “I had to care for my injury.” Teng Qing Shan smiled and replied. 

  “ Well, are you hurt?” Elena was worried. 

  “I am okay. How is the outside situation?” Teng Qing Shan inquired. 

  Elena revealed a little bit of nervousness, and thought for a moment, then she answered “Wolf, you are very powerful and dangerous. You even killed Magosawa and Dole Goth Grove. Now you are listed as the first master of “Fifty S levels of Killers”, known as the SS-classed killers. Are you feeling proud of yourself? Unfortunately though I have to give you some bad news.” 

  “Tell me.” Teng Qing Shan knitted his eyebrows. 

  “It is possibly that the Redmayne family was angry, or, may be because your ability made them nervous. To put it simply, Redmayne spent a lot of money inviting the world’s Top organization “God Kingdom”. I guess that two of the Big Three of “God Kingdom” are in China, they are ‘Vishnu’ and ‘Shiva’, and they are searching for you.” 

  Teng Qing Shan changed his emotion. 

  “Two of Big Three of “God Kingdom”? Despite his strength, Teng Qing Shan could not help feeling worried. 

  The Big Three of the God Kingdom claimed to be Gods! Of course, all of them were SS-Class killers; they were absolutely the masters of the higher realm. Moreover, the Big Three of God Kingdom had entered the higher realm long ago. Having entered the higher realm for years and having entered for a few months were far from the same. 

  Although Teng Qing Shan’s body had developed twice as much before thanks to practicing “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts” which could take almost a lifetime to achieve for a normal master. 

  But…… 

  His enemies were two of the Big Three, in the dark world. They were legendary invincible masters. Over the years, no one could kill any one of them. 

  “On this occasion, the Redmayne family invited them……even two of them simultaneously came here to deal with me. They respected me too much! “ Teng Qing Shan felt the pressure but in truth, he earnestly wanted to start a war. 

  Teng Qing Shan did not know why God Kingdom sent two of the Big Three to China; maybe because they were nervous that Teng Qing Shan would have a Master’s help. If the two leaders had met Xing Yi Quan’s masters appearing to help Teng Qing Shan, they would have been in danger. Therefore, they needed to send two people to kill Teng Qing Shan. 

  Two of them would attack together when they came and defend when they fell behind as insurance. 

  Once “God Kingdom” took in the mission, until now, they had never failed!

  Teng Qing Shan, albeit aware that two of the Big Three of the Kingdom of God were coming to kill him, was able to remain phlegmatic. In fact, he appeared to be excited at the prospect of battling two SS-rank killers. Because he practiced “Tiger Shaped Magical Arts” and had transcended to the higher realm, Teng Qing Shan now possessed ten times more strength than before. 

  Were Magosawa and Dole Goth Grove to battle him in his current state, Teng Qing Shan could instantly make them perish. 

  Indeed, Masters lived a life of solitude, for it was incredibly difficult for them to encounter well-matched opponents. 

  At the thought of his opponent, Teng Qing Shan chuckled: “Big Three, the invincible? I will destroy this legend.” 

  Shortly after the sun was up, Teng Qing Shan left his temporary abode and called a taxi. 

  After entering the vehicle, he told the driver, “To the Willow Tea House in the old town. You recognize the address, right?” 

  The driver smiled: “Of course I know. I go there quite frequently; how can I possibly forget where the Willow Tea House is? Trust me, we will reach there in ten minutes!” 

  Indubitably, ten minutes later Teng Qing Shan’s cab pulled over in front of the Willow Tea House. 

  ————————————————————————————————————— 

  In another part of the old town, there was an Audi sports car speeding through the street; right beside the driver seat was Lin Qing. 

  The driver, Xiao Min, inquired, “Sister Lin, have you met Teng Qing Shan since your last encounter a few weeks back?” 

  Lin shook her head and scoffed: “I have neither heard from nor acquired any information pertaining to him in a month now. Well, I do not want to give him any trouble. This is all just a dream now.” Lin Qing smiled mockingly, “I just have dreams.” Suddenly, her cell phone began buzzing, and she took the phone out of her pocket. 

  “Hello,” Lin Qing said; her face distorted after she heard the caller’s voice. 

  “Tonight? Well, see you at the old place, then.” 

  The call ended. 

  Due to the darkness that had crept over her face, Lin’s reaction could not be discerned. 

  Xiao Min cast a furtive glance at Lin Qing and whispered, “Was it Li Shan?” 

  “Who else but him?” Lin’s eyes manifested a hint of hatred. 

  Realizing Lin’s fraught situation, Xiao Min replied with barely suppressed bellicose zeal: “It would be good if he were to just die.” 

  “Well, I wish he would die, but people like him have a long life. Okay, Xiao Min–stop in front of the Willow Tea House.” Lin Qing said. 

  The sports car stopped not far from the tea house. After Lin Qing exited the vehicle, Xiao Min drove the car away. 

  ———————————————————————————————————————– 

  After Lin walked into the Willow Tea House, she was surrounded by the balmy ambience created by the illustrations hanging on the walls. 

  However, Lin did not appreciate the tenderness of her surrounding since she did not come here solely to calm down. 

  Habitually, she went to the second floor and swept over the faces of the habitués. Her will, which had been down for a few weeks now, lit up out of the blue; Lin had difficulty breathing because she could not believe her eyes. She immediately exclaimed, “Teng Qing Shan!” 

  Teng Qing Shan, who was leisurely sipping tea, smiled when he saw Lin Qing and called, “Lin Qing?” 

  Having sat down opposite to the person she had frantically wanted to meet, Lin delightfully inquired, “Were you doing something important the past few days? I have not seen you coming here.” This sentence revealed the fact that the speaker had come here every day, with an axiomatic purpose. 

  Casually, Teng Qing Shan replied, “I was busy with something. How come you are so carefree, Lin?” 

  Lin shallowly smiled, “I have a really simple job in the company. By letting others manage the normal trivialities, I attend only when something paramount comes up. Teng Qing Shan, you have lived in An Yi country before, and are now in the city of Yang Zhou. Don’t you want to go back home? Do you not worry about your wife? Do she not urge you to come back?” 

  “Home?” 

  The depths of his heart were touched. Teng Qing Shan pondered: Do I have a home? 

  As a child, his home was an orphanage where he lived with Dean Grandmother and his brother, Qing Jiang. Then, he became a killer, and lived with the other killers; but, other than Cat, he did not really care about the others. 

  Now what? 

  Does he still have a home? 

  Teng Qing Shan touched a small tripod cauldron which he wore on his chest; this was a memento from his late wife, Cat. 

  Seeing him stunned, Lin raised her voice, “Teng Qing Shan?” 

  He looked at her and vocalized, “My wife- she’s dead.” 

  “Dead?” Lin was goggle-eyed. 

  Because Teng Qing appeared young, the fact that he is married could surprise anyone. But the notion that his wife had departed the world, leaving behind such a youth, was simply incredulous. 

  Teng Qing Shan frowned, “Do not ask anything.” 

  Lin had more than a rudimentary understanding of human behavior. Thus, she was able to construe that because Teng Qing Shan had lost his love at such a young age, and because Teng Qing Shan possessed inconceivable strength, he had secrets. 

  Though Teng Qing Shan talked to Lin Qing customarily, he paid most of his attention to the house of his brother, Qing Jian. 

  He noticed everything with but a single glance. Thus, he was also able to notice the inconspicuous man passing by his brother’s house periodically. 

  ——————————————————————————————————————- 

  At 10:00 a.m, a black Audi A6 suddenly stopped in front of Qing Jian’s house. A man got off with a big and tall appearance; his height was about 1 meter and 90 centimeters. On the other side of that car, a woman wearing a maternity dress came out with a big belly. 

  Teng Qing Shan couldn’t help but yell, “Qing Jiang! It’s Qing Jiang!” 

  Teng Qing Shan knew a bit about his brother; this information included his present appearance as well. 

  Moreover, Qing Jiang’s face was quite reminiscent of Teng Qing Shan’s face. 

  Truth be told, the reason why Teng Qing Shan noticed his brother so quickly was because, as a sibling, he shared a very close and special relationship with Qing Jiang. 

  Perhaps the woman is Qing Jiang’s wife, ‘Li Ran.’ 

  Teng Qing Shan couldn’t help but smile. 

  Seeing his brother and his wife, Teng Qing Shan was exuberant. 

  —————————————————————————————————————————- 

  “Li Ran, let me carry the luggage. You have to take caution. Don’t touch anything.” At the moment, Qin Hong opened the trunk and removed two big suitcases. 

  “I’m fine.” Li Ran touched her belly, her face full of smiles. As Qin Hong habitually looked around, he noticed that on the window on the second floor of ‘Willow Tea House” there was a man staring at him. 

  Because he instantly recognized the appearance of that man, Qin Hong felt as if a bucket of iced water had poured over him. 

  “Wolf!” Qin Hong startlingly shouted. 

  Although Qin Hong received the news a month ago, no one had been able to find Wolf or the two leaders of God Kingdom. This made Qin Hong lose some confidence because he thought that Wolf had left Yang Zhou. 

  He’s still here. Qin Hong suddenly calmed himself. 

  To his surprise, he noticed that Wolf, who had been looking in his direction, nodded and smiled at him. 

  Qin Hong acted naturally, smiling back at Teng Qing Shan. 

  “Lin, let’s go in.” Qin Hong unhesitatingly took his wife into the house very quickly. 

  —————————————————————————————————————————- 

  On the second floor of the Teahouse, Teng Qing Shan was elated He could not prevent the two corners of his mouth from reaching his ears in glee. 

  “Qing Jiang! Finally I have seen my brother! Ha ha! I can not believe that my sister-in-law was pregnant. Good.” His brother was his only relative, and he had seen him for the first time in twenty years. 

  Therefore, Teng Qing Shan was ecstatic! 

  “My brother is leading a happy life. I am no longer be worried about him.” Teng Qing Shan, who was in high spirit, felt comfortable because a great hope, which had ladened his shoulders, had been realized. His twenty-year hope had finally achieved fruition. 

  He did not intend to communicate with, and reveal his identity to, Qing Jiang. 

  The reason, 

  He did not want Qing Jiang to know that he had a brother like Teng Qing Shan. After all, Teng Shad had enemies like Redmayne family that were to be reckoned with! Being a killer for many years, it was not surprising that he had made a substantial number of enemies. Even though Qing Jiang was a member of a special state department, if he were to involve himself in Teng Qing Shan’s circle then he would be dragged into the Dark World as well. 

  Teng Qing Shan had numerous master-level enemies. Once his enemies discovered that Qing Jiang was his brother, Qing Jiang would indubitably die. 

  “Qing Jiang.” Teng Qing Shan looked at his brother’s house and wished him happiness. 

  —————————————————————————————————————————- 

  After Qin Hong and Li Ran went into their bedroom, Li Ran was about to open the window. However, Qin Hong suddenly made her cease her actions by stating, “Do not open the curtains.” 

  Qin Hong let out a sigh of relief. 

  Li Ran had found Qin Hong’s behavior uncanny, so she asked, “Why?” 

  Qin Hong whispered, “I saw Wolf on the second floor of Willow Tea house!” 

  Li Ran was flabbergasted. She was Qin Hong’s wife, but she was also a member of Special Operations Group. So, of course, she knew many secrets. 

  “Wolf? You said he was near us?” 

  Li Ran had not seen Teng Qing Shan. However, Qin Hong nodded and said, ”Li Ran, everything‘s okay. A dangerous man like Wolf is not what we can cope with.” Immediately, Qin Hong took out his phone dialed a number, “Hello, Yang brother, I have spotted Wolf. That’s right- he is sitting in a tea house not far from my house.” 

  “I know. I won’t do anything stupid.” 

  “Okay, I trust you. Okay, I understand!” 

  Qin Hong immediately hung up the phone. 

  Curiously, Li Rang inquired, “What did Yang brother say?” 

  Qin Hong helplessly smiled, “How could he say anything other than remind us not to do anything? He will come and set up everything on his own…… Even unprepared, Wolf is inordinately strong and dangerous. Why can such people calmly drink tea even though they know they are being investigated?” 

  “Because they don’t fear anything.” 

  Qin Hong suddenly knitted his eyebrow, “Little Ran, I have just remembered that Wolf looked at me and smiled.”


  The Nine Cauldrons Chapter 11: ‘Chun Tian’ – The Fugitive 

  “He smiled at you?” Li Ran surprised. 

  “Yes, I do not know why I felt that “Wolf” was not cruel as the rumors state.” Qin Hong puzzled, “Actually, I always felt that he gave me a sense of familiarity as if I have seen him somewhere, but I just can’t remember.” 

  “Stop thinking if you can’t,” Li Ran said. 

  After only a moment, someone knocked the door. 

  “Perhaps Yang brother came, let me open the door.” Qin Hong suddenly walked into the living room, looked out through door’s hole then opened. There was a gentleman wearing a glass, about 1’75-metre tall. After this man had come in, Qin Hong closed the door in a glance. 

  At a same time, Li Ran came out. 

  “Yang brother.” Li Ran greeted with a smile. 

  ‘Little Ran, you are pregnant, take a rest instead of going around.” Yang brother laughed. ‘Yang brother’ ‘s full name was ‘Yun,’ the general manager of Special Operations of Jiangsu Province and his strength was also high. 

  Because the situation related to ‘Wolf’ and two leaders of “God Kingdom” all the members of Special Operations of Jiangsu Province all came to Yang Zhou. 

  ‘Yun’ looked at Qin Hong: “Qin Hong, you said you had seen ‘Wolf’, didn’t you? Go and see whether he was still there or not.” 

  Qin Hong nodded, walked into the living room and looked through the door. 

  “Yang brother, he ‘s still there.” Qin Hong said. Then Yun immediately ran to the door to have a look. 

  “Yang brother, you see, he is sitting on the second floor of the opposite Tea House, that biggest window. That man is Wolf, and there is also a woman sitting opposite to him.Qin Hong knitted his eyebrows, “Hey, isn’t she……?” 

  “She?” Yun was surprised. 

  “Yes, a moment ago, I hastily observed, I did not think that woman was her. She is Lin Qing, a quite well-known woman in Yang Zhou.” Yangzhou Citadel was not small, but it was also not large. Qin Hong clearly knew about this famous person. 

  Yun nodded slightly, suddenly took out his mobile phone and dialed the number. 

  “Chen Third, send your two groups’ officers here, come to  Let me see, come to White Cloud coffee shop opposite Qin Hong’s house. I have an important mission for you!” Yun immediately hung up his phone. 

  “Qin Hong, stay here and don’t go anywhere.” After saying that to Qin Hong, Yun immediately left Qin Hong’s house. ……

  At the VIP room of White Cloud Coffee shop, there was only Yun and a middle-aged man having a plain appearance. Hearing a report, this middle-aged man nodded:” Yang, ‘Wolf’ and Lin Qing have just left Willow Tea House.In my small group, one officer is responsible for tracking Lin Qing. And the other four people will keep track of Wolf.” 

  Yun did not speak; he was just quietly waiting. 

  For a moment, the middle-aged man reluctantly smiled:” Yang, Wolf has just disappeared .” 

  “I’m not surprised at all.” Yang Yun shook his head. “ ‘Wolf’ could said to be the strongest master in the world, he is also an SS-Killer so hiding as well as tracking was not difficult to him. Following him was extremely difficult. Chen Third, your group continued to keep track of Lin Qing for me. Perhaps, thanks to Lin Qing, we could find a clue.” 

  “Yes, sir !” Chen Third nodded. 

  *** 

  In an old alley, Teng Qing Shan was like a normal person having a walk. 

  “The people keeping track of me were possibly the members of my brother’s organization.” Teng Qing Shan guessed, “Based on my brother ‘s identity, they could have successfully investigated my identity.” Teng Qing Shan did not care much about this. In his view, these people were just ordinary folks. 

  Teng Qing Shan’s helixes were moving, and suddenly his speed increased. 

  He came to a turning. At the alley in front of him, there was a weak slim man wearing a hat and walking. 

  Teng Qing Shan did not stay longer in Willow Tea House because he wanted to follow this weak slim man. By Teng Qing Shan’s ability, he could only use his ears to follow someone, without depending on his eyes. 

  “Today morning, this man passed through my brother’s house three times, each time, he wore different clothes. Moreover, each time he went through, and carefully observed my brother’s house, perhaps he has malicious intent.” Teng Qing Shan paid his attention to his brother’s house. Thus, all people going through there were seen by him at least one time. 

  With Memorializing Arts that he practiced, he could never forget anything even he had seen it only one time. 

  Especially, this man did not disguise well. 

  “This man’s eyes acted awkwardly, he looked around as if he had been guarding himself.” Teng Qing Shan was a strong killer so he could easily realize the weakness of opponents. 

  Obviously, that man’s camouflage ability was too bad. Guessing the malice of the opponent, Teng Qing Shan absolutely did not let that man go easily. Afterall ‘Qing Jiang’ was his only relative. 

  Although Teng Qing Shan was constantly following, but the weak slim man did not realize. 

  After a short time, this weak slim man went inside a small six-floored residential building, and then went up the stairs. Teng Qing Shan stopped at the foot of the stair and listened carefully. 

  “Third floor, the room on left.” Teng Qing Shan heard and easily identified the opponent’s location. 

  All of a sudden he went up the stairs to the third floor, came to that room and pressed his ear against the door and listened. 

  The sound in the room was faint but Teng Qing Shan could clearly hear everything. 

  “Hello, boss Lee, I came there. You did not tell me that Qin Hong had a pregnant wife. If I have to kill Qin Hong, I must kill his wife as well. If not, his wife would scream loudly, and I would be found out by the surrounding people. You have to raise the price, about ten thousand. This price is nothing for a person like you.” 

  Hearing everything, Teng Qing Shan suddenly became angry and wanted to kill. 

  You want to kill both my brother and my sister-in-law? 

  In this world, his brother was his only relative and he must not allow anyone to kill his brother. 

  “Ha ha, Mr.Lee feel at ease. No problem! When all things finish, I will leave immediately. Don’t worry, Qin Hong is dangerous but I already have a plan, he will surely be killed! Okay, you only need to wait for my good news.” The man in the room immediately hung up his phone after talking to Mr.Lee. 

  Teng Qing Shan hold the door’s hinge, his interior strength moved and then he easily pushed the door and came in. The door opened as if it had not been locked. 

  The weak slim man was lying comfortably on the sofa in the living room and humming songs. He was holding the remote control, and as he turned on the TV; he glanced at the door and a young man wearing glasses, who came in. Teng Qing Shan naturally closed the door. 

  “You, who are you? ” The weak slim man scared and doubted . Perhaps he forgot to lock the door? 

  No, absolutely not, he could not have been so careless like that. 

  “You asked who I am?” Teng Qing Shan was coming closer to him. 

  The weak slim man’s eyes were full of ruthless light. Like the speed of light, he took out his pistol from his belt. 

  The young man who had just stood in front of the door strangely went to him and grabbed his pistol. 

  “Chi, Chi……” Pistol’s barrel was bent. 

  The weak slim man suddenly became pale with fear. 

  The barrel was too tough, as everyone had known. Could he resist such a person who could bend the barrel only with his hand’s strength? 

  “Brother, where do you belong to?” The weak slim man was so scared that he trembled , “I’m Chun Tian, in the underworld, I also have a little of fame…… A long time ago, when I was living in my homeland, I committed a crime and was hunted by the police .Therefore, I came here. If I did something wrong to you ” 

  “Shut up.” Teng Qing Shan shouted. 

  ‘Chun Tian’ scared suddenly kept quiet. 

  “Now, every question I ask, you have to answer.” Teng Qing Shan’s voice did not change; his cold look made Chun Tian’s heart thump. 

  “ Ask me please.” Chun Tian said. 

  “Are you going to kill all of Qin Hong’s family?” Teng Qing Shan asked seriously. 

  Chun Tian hesitated. 

  “Kill!” Chun Tian did not see the opponent attack him, but he felt pain on his right hand. All his hand’s bones were broken, which made him groan in agony, he wanted to scream loudly. However, as he looked at his enemy, Chun Tian could not shout. Because he knew…… 

  In this situation, the more loudly he screamed, the sooner he would be killed. 

  Although he felt serious pain, even sweating, Chun Tian had to answer: “Yes, I am being hunted, so I act as if I did not fear anything. I am passing through Yang Zhou, On my way, I do something illegally to earn a little money and then immediately leave. Is Qin Hong your brother? If so, I will not say anything more and leave now. If you are not satisfied with anything, Please tell me.” 

  “Who told you to do that?” Teng Qing Shan’s voice still did not change. 

  “.…… I can not tell you.” Chun Tian tried to smile, “It’s against the rules ” 

  “Do you want to Die Now!” In a glance, his left hand’s bones were broken. Whether his hand’s strength or the cold of opponent could make, Chun Tian collapsed. 

  “I said, I will ask the questions and you will have to answer. I don’t want say this another time. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences.” Teng Qing Shan seriously asked, “Who is Mr.Lee?” 

  “You knew?” Hearing Teng Qing Shan mention “Mr.Lee”, the fugitive named Chun Tian couldn’t help becoming angry, why did you ask me although you had known? His two hands were broken so he did not dare to say anything. 

  “Answer me.” Teng Qing Shan said. 

  Chun Tian took a deep breath and coped with his pain, said:” Brother if I answer, you won’t kill me.OK? If you don’t accept my request, I won’t say anything even though you kill me.” After saying, Chun Tian clenched his teeth and stared at Teng Qing Shan. 

  Teng Qing Shan only looked at him and said:” Okay!” 

  Metropolis breathed a sigh of relief. He supposed that a strong man like Teng Qing Shan would definitely respect his word. 

  “The person who made me to kill your brother is the Chairman of Ming Shan group named Li Shan. Li Shan is also a famous man in the underworld; he is really dangerous.” Chun Tian said. 

  “Li Shan, Ming Shan group.” Teng Qing Shan reminded himself of this name. 

  All of a sudden, Teng Qing Shan waved his hand, he made his index finger and middle finger be a sword and pointed directly to the middle this fugitive’s brow. 

  At the time Chun Tian felt dizzy, his consciousness became blurred. He resentfully stared at Teng Qing Shan, and then all he could see was just the darkness. 

  He was so angry because Teng Qing Shan did not keep his word. 

  Teng Qing Shan glanced at the man coldly. 

  When he was seven years old, he had to come outside from a dead pile. Being the cruelest killer in the world, he was taught how to kill since he was a child. Why did he have to forgive an enemy because of a promise? Moreover, the enemy was one who wanted to kill his brother’s family. If anyone is threatening his relatives’ life, Teng Qing Shan will not let them survive. 

  Leaving a corpse and a distorted pistol, Teng Qing Shan came out the room. 

  “Li Shan!” 

  Teng Qing Shan slightly talked to himself.

  Recently there have been a lot of hate about the quality of the translations, well i started translating just 10 days ago and people tend to be comparing me with those that have been doing this for months even having 4-5 Editors per chapter……Which i find quite astonishing……If you don’t like this work, then would appreciate if you don’t bother reading it, keep your comments to yourself. I started this as a hobby and some people are really forcing me to drop the series. Anyhow, after this rage…… Enjoy the next chapter of the Nine cauldrons. Will probably release LOTD and another TNC chapter soon.
