Chapter 9
C9 – After She Fainted
”No way,” Jiaang Lin decided in an instant after a moment of contemplation.
He resolved to seal his domineering skill. And the Cloud Slashing Palm? He would use it sparingly, if at all. Concealing his true power was essential.
A crafty smirk crept across Jiaang Lin’s face as he pondered his strategy. That would certainly make him appear cooler.
Yet, Jiaang Lin had no desire to end the lives of the trio, especially since he had inadvertently seen her unclothed. He had a bit of a soft spot for the opposite sex.
Death could be avoided, but punishment was inescapable!
His gaze settled on Zhou Qin. He inadvertently swallowed the saliva that had gathered at the corner of his mouth, shook his head slightly, and reached out towards her.
After patting her down, he remarked, “You’re a sect disciple, aren’t you? How can you not possess a single treasure?”
The more Jiaang Lin thought about the situation, the more irritated he became.
A spatial fluctuation was detected on the trio. Please examine their right index fingers.
”Spatial magic tool?” Jiaang Lin mused, then smacked his forehead, exclaiming, “Of course! They must have something like a Storage Ring! How did that slip my mind?”
Looking at their fingers, he immediately spotted three rings.
“Got them!”
Jiaang Lin’s eyes widened as he removed the rings from their fingers and examined them closely. Zu Nan and Sunn Tang’s rings were quite plain. Zhou Qin’s, however, was adorned with a gem that seemed quite valuable.
[Spiritual imprint detected on the Storage Ring. Would you like to erase it?]
[Yes.]
[No.]
He didn’t hesitate.
“Erase!”
At the sound of his command, three faint pops emanated from the Storage Rings, signaling that Jiaang Lin could now freely explore their contents.
“These two guys are broke as can be. These Storage Rings must be the basic issue for ordinary disciples, with such limited storage space,” Jiaang Lin grumbled as he tossed aside the rings belonging to the two men, clutching their meager pair of silver coins. He then turned his attention to Zhou Qin’s Storage Ring.
Jiaang Lin was taken aback by the vast space inside the Storage Ring!
The Storage Ring belonging to Zhou Qin boasted a space more than tenfold larger than those of two ordinary disciples.
And it was nearly filled to the brim with items!
Dozens of crystals in a rainbow of hues, over ten bottles of medicine pills, a hundred or so gold coins, and predominantly, Zhou Qin’s clothing!
Upon closer inspection, Jiaang Lin found two cultivation techniques and a waist tag.
Examining the waist tag, he saw four large characters emblazoned on it: Thunder Sword Sect!
Beneath those characters, in the bottom right corner, was the inscription: Personal Disciple Zhou Qin!
“So, it’s the Thunder Sword Sect they belong to!”
Jiaang Lin was about to casually discard the waist tag when he noticed its shimmering golden light. Realizing the tag was made of no ordinary material, he thought about erasing the inscription and selling it for a tidy sum.
A sly grin spread across Jiaang Lin’s face.
