Chapter 254: Not a Member of the Scorpion Faction

"Arrange a room for me; I need to get some good rest!" Qin Ming said.

He had killed several Martial Spirits, and they all had some treasures on them, so he needed to organize them properly.

"Understood!" The Disciple respectfully led the way for Qin Ming, and they soon arrived at a secret chamber.

"This room is a bit small, but its advantage is that it is safe…" the Disciple said apologetically.

Qin Ming waved his hand and said, "Safety is exactly what I need. You should gather more intelligence on the Hehuan Sect and the Zhengqi Sect. I am going to rest now."

"This Disciple will take his leave!" The Disciple left respectfully.

Qin Ming entered the room, sat cross-legged, and began to organize the items on his person.

First was the most precious qixin grass; this was a ninth-grade spirit plant and belonged to the treasures among spirit plants. Qin Ming carefully placed it inside a jade box.

Afterward, he began to examine the corpses of those few Martial Spirits.

Since the Qixin Sect had discovered two Martial Artists from the Scorpion Faction, it was very likely that there was a third, and the Elders of the Qixin Sect were the most suspicious.

However, it was clearly Qin Ming overthinking things; after a careful inspection, none of the three corpses had a scorpion pattern.

This immediately left Qin Ming confused.

How exactly did this Scorpion Faction operate? If one were to say that one of the Elders of the Qixin Sect was part of the Scorpion Faction…

…and that a Martial King was a member of the Scorpion Faction, then the entire Qixin Sect should consist of Martial Artists from the Scorpion Faction.

However, these three Martial Artists were not from the Scorpion Faction, which made Qin Ming unable to understand.

"This Scorpion Faction is truly mysterious!"

Qin Ming thought for a long time, but still had no clues.

However, through his dealings with the Scorpion Faction these past few days, Qin Ming felt more and more of its mystery; it felt as if a mass of black mist was shrouding the entire Scorpion Faction.

He believed that once he managed to uncover everything about the Scorpion Faction, there would definitely be an earth-shattering secret.

"No matter who you are, no matter how mysterious you are, since you have provoked me, Qin Ming, I will definitely uncover the truth about you."

Qin Ming secretly swore to himself.

It was not that Qin Ming had locked horns with the Scorpion Faction, but rather that the Scorpion Faction had set its sights on his Qin Family; if he did not exterminate the Scorpion Faction, Qin Ming would not be able to eat or sleep in peace.

Now that a Martial King had appeared as a member of the Scorpion Faction, one could not rule out the possibility that there were Martial Emperors, or even Martial Saint Experts, who were members of the Scorpion Faction.

Thinking of a Martial Saint, Qin Ming couldn't help but shiver involuntarily.

Qin Ming had likely seen the power of a Martial Saint with his own eyes; when a Martial Saint acted, it was earth-shattering yet marked by Soundlessness, killing invisibly from ten thousand miles away.

Destroying mountains and filling seas was even more trivial.

"I, Qin Ming, am not someone to be trifled with either. I believe that one day I will become a Martial God, and by then, no matter how many Martial Saints or even Martial Gods come, I will not be afraid!"

Qin Ming said, bolstering his own courage.

He was a Pill God, and in reality, his courage was quite immense. When that demoness killed him in his previous life, he hadn't been afraid at all, and had even resorted to self-detonation directly.

The reason he was afraid now was because he had family; he was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that after he died, there would be no one to protect his family.

"The Feather Transformation Sect is still developing a bit too slowly. Even when investigating information on the Qixin Sect, there are many errors and omissions. It seems I still need to accelerate the time spent on training!"

Qin Ming thought of the Feather Transformation Sect again. After observing those Disciples for this period of time, he found they were very loyal to the Sect, completely treating the Sect as their home.

Qin Ming also liked the Sect Disciples very much and had placed high hopes on them in his heart.

Whatever resources the Disciples lacked, he provided them with; he had always satisfied them to the maximum extent.

And those Disciples had not let him down, all of them progressing rapidly.
