Upgrade Specialist in Another World

In a burst of strength from aunt Zhao, her right leg stamped down onto the ground so hard a crater had been left behind. Dozens of meters had instantly been shortened as she charged toward Jing Mingfeng with eyes that were shining with a furious desire to kill.

“Holy shit, I took this joke way too far! Time to withdraw!” As an earth-shattering amount of power began to engulf the area, Jing Mingfeng’s face began to change. Unable to think of any other solution to escape, Jing Mingfeng could only use his soulforce to reinforce his legs and make himself even faster than before. Like a wild dog that had just broken free from its chains, Jing Mingfeng flew to the right side entrance of the street.

“Lady, this servant of yours is far too violent! She’s adamant in stopping us from being together, so I’ll split first. I’m sure fate will ensure that we will see each other again in the future. Until then, don’t you forget this handsome me!” Jing Mingfeng did not forget to let out a final remark as he desperately tried to run.

The aunt chased after him in hot pursuit. However, she had to restrain herself from attacking despite her fury when she saw that he was planning to escape onto a street with plenty of people. If one of her sword strikes were to fly out, there was a good chance a commoner would be injured.

Jing Mingfeng had naturally thought about that as well so when he made it out onto the streets he cried out loud, “Help! There’s a murderer, run away!!”

His voice caused the entire street to stop in a daze. Taking advantage of the confusion, Jing Mingfeng bent over and quickly scampered into the crowd.

Arriving at the street entrance, aunt Zhao stopped with an angry reluctance. Staring at the crowd in front of her, she let out a groan and began to restrain her anger so that she could spread out her soulforce and find the soulforce of Jing Mingfeng. Half a moment later, her eyebrows flew up in shock. Confused, she spoke, “He’s gone? But how? I can’t even detect any presence of him left…”

“Aunt Zhao, are you okay….”

Aunt Zhao was startled to hear the voice of her young charge behind her. Whirling around to look at the young woman, she took in several deep breaths to pacify her own indignation. Putting away the sword, she gave a small smile to the young woman and shook her head, “I’m fine, but that wretched man somehow used some sort of method to hide his soulforce. He’s gone.”

The young woman was surprised. Staring at the throng of people who had already went back to normal, she questioned, “That man… how strange was he! Just how could there… be such a shameless soul cultivator like him…”

“Hmph! That shameless pervert. Not only did he treat the young miss rudely, he actually… he actually…” Aunt Zhao’s face began to distort with resentment again as her arms unconsciously covered her own chest. Furious, she declared, “If he and I ever meet again, I will definitely cut off both of his hands! Then I’ll tear apart that foul mouth of his!”

“Yes aunty. Let’s not get mad. Let’s return to our inn. If he ever appears again, you’ll have to beat a lesson into him…”

As the two women walked down the road toward the inn, aunt Zhao could be heard continuously cursing the name of that ‘depraved knave’ over and over while the young woman whispered several words of comfort.

Unbeknown to the two, following quietly behind them a hundred meters was a man with an extremely prominent beard. Walking with the two until they got to their inn, the man looked at it for a moment before turning around.

The man walked off to another inn not too far away and booked a room for the night. Within the closed doors of his room, he sat by the table and poured himself a cup of tea to drink. With eyes that flashed incessantly, he began to ponder to himself.

“I didn’t reveal my own soulforce and even managed to use the Soul Concealment Art to mix it up a bit, so they should think I was trying to hide my strength. Haha… this way the blame will be perfectly pinned on someone else…”

The corners of his lips turned up in a sinister smile. With a shake of his right hand, an orange piece of cloth from a woman appeared. In this moment of thought, the smile on his face grew even more vulgar.

“Hehe, Bai Yunfei, this is the price of angering Jing Mingfeng… let’s see how long it’ll take for me to break you!”

…………

From the inside of an inn on the eastern streets, Bai Yunfei suddenly felt a chill run up his spine while meditating. It caused him to be shaken back to awareness.
