Without waiting for Qin Hao to think further, the handsome man Sun Qing said,"I heard that Little Master Duzhen was expelled from the Heavenly Dragon Temple for some reason. You should have nowhere to go now, so why don't you join the Brocade Guard? Once you join the Brocade Guard, you can enjoy a monthly salary of fifty taels of silver and can read the high-grade martial arts of the Brocade Guard.”
Sun Qing's offer to recruit him was indeed very tempting. In addition, Qin Hao had just been expelled from the Heavenly Dragon Temple and had no place to go. He was a little tempted!
However, Qin Wu's eyes gradually revealed traces of coldness."Something's wrong…There's something wrong with this Sun Qing. There's…the smell of blood on his body!”
Qin Hao didn't know if there was a problem with the Brocade Guard's recruitment, but he was sure that there was something wrong with Sun Qing!
Qin Hao could smell the scent of blood on Sun Qing's body. This scent of blood was not the scent of blood that came from killing, but a kind of blood that was carved into his bones. Qin Hao had smelled this kind of scent on the three leaders of the Blood Cloud Bandits back then.
With his consciousness probing, Qin Hao sniffed lightly. Having cultivated the first chapter of Marrow Cleansing Scroll and been reborn, his five senses were different from ordinary people. He could clearly smell the faint smell of blood floating out of Sun Qing's mouth when he spoke!
" This Sun Qing…is the same as the three Blood Cloud Bandit leaders. He drinks blood to cultivate the Blood Demon Technique. He should have only recently drunk blood. This smell has yet to dissipate. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to smell it…" Qin Hao's gaze was slightly cold. He was almost certain that this Sun Qing was most likely the same as the three Blood Cloud Bandit leaders, cultivating the same demonic technique.
The Blood Demon Technique was unique to the Blood Demon Sect, one of the Four Saint Devil Sects. The three leaders of the Blood Cloud Bandits could only be considered outer sect disciples, but this Sun Qing held the position of Embroidered Uniform Guard. He might even be an inner sect disciple of the Blood Demon Sect.
Moreover, because Qin Hao had killed the three leaders of the Blood Cloud Bandits, these Embroidered Uniform Guards had come to find him. Qin Hao felt that there might be some conspiracy. After all…Sun Qing was very likely to be from the Blood Demon Sect!
Sun Qing had no idea that he had already been listed as a member of the Blood Demon Sect by Qin Hao.
Sun Qing maintained a smile on his face, but he was thinking about something else."This Duzhen has a huge connection with Heavenly Dragon Temple. According to the previous investigation, it's very likely that he cultivates Golden Bell Cocoon. This is a high-tier Buddhist martial art.”
Sun Qing indeed harbored ill intentions. However, he did not come for revenge because the three Blood Demon Sect outer sect disciples had died at Qin Hao's hands. Instead, it was because of the Golden Bell Shield that Qin Hao cultivated. This was one of the Four Dharma Divine Arts that only the Heavenly Dragon Temple possessed!
In Heavenly Dragon Temple, only a handful of core members could be taught Golden Bell Cocoon.
However, Qin Hao had mastered the Golden Bell Shield and had been expelled from the Heavenly Dragon Temple. Shangguan Yun, who had received the news, was tempted and sent Sun Qing to recruit Qin Hao. His main purpose was to obtain the top-notch divine skill, the Golden Bell Shield.
"This Sun Qing must have something on him that can prove his identity as a Blood Demon Sect disciple. Let's take him down first. If there's a mistake, it won't be too late to apologize.”From the faint smell of blood that floated out of Sun Qing's mouth, Qin Hao determined that Sun Qing had most likely drunk blood recently. Who would drink blood for no reason?
Qin Hao had read the secret manual of the Blood Demon Technique before and knew that those who cultivated the Blood Demon Technique had to drink blood at regular intervals. Otherwise, they would feel uncomfortable all over as if they were addicted. Sun Qing had only recently drunk blood, and it was very likely that he still had an item that contained blood on him. This was the evidence. Qin Hao decided to take Sun Qing down. If he was wrong, he was not afraid of anyone!
When he thought of this, Qin Wu's face revealed a rather moved expression.""Embroidered Uniform Guards? You can be promoted if you join?"
Sun Qing and the other Embroidered Uniform Guards smiled when they heard Qin Hao's words. After all, he was a young man who had been expelled from the Heavenly Dragon Temple for committing a murder. Now that they had offered benefits to lure Qin Hao, who had nowhere else to go, it would not be a problem to recruit him.
"Of course. With your martial arts skills and potential, as long as you make a little contribution, Lord Shangguan Yun will promote you to the position of Chief Banner or even Hundred Households.”Sun Qing smiled, feeling that the matter had already been settled.
"Alright then…don't lie to me.”Qin Hao nodded as he walked towards Sun Qing and extended his hand.
Sun Qing was stunned. He thought that Qin Hao wanted to shake his hand, so he extended his hand as well.
"Kacha!"
However, the moment they shook hands, Sun Qing's expression changed. Qin Hao's palm suddenly exerted force, causing Sun Qing to grunt. One of his arms was dislocated by Qin Hao's pull, and he could not stand steadily!
"What are you doing?" Sun Qing roared in pain. As he got closer, Qin Hao could clearly smell the bloody smell from Sun Qing's mouth.
"Bone Carving Claw!"
Sun Qing didn't know why Qin Hao suddenly attacked him, but he didn't hesitate. As a martial artist, his instinct made him launch a counterattack. His other hand bent into a claw, and the Righteous Force condensed. It brought a series of air-breaking sounds as it grabbed at Qin Hao's throat. If it was caught, his claw would instantly break Qin Hao's throat!
However, Sun Qing might not be Qin Hao's match even if he fought head-on, let alone being ambushed by Qin Hao first and losing an arm, he had already lost the initiative!
"Dragon Capture!"
Qin Hao also extended his claw and grabbed Sun Qing's wrist. His other arm was pressed against Sun Qing's ribs. With a twist, a scream accompanied by the sound of bones rubbing, Qin Hao dislocated Sun Qing's other arm and hooked it with his leg, pushing it to the ground. He pressed down on Sun Qing's body and did not let him get up.
"What…what are you doing? Let go of Lord Sun!" The other four Embroidered Uniform Guards finally reacted and shouted angrily. They could not understand why Qin Hao suddenly attacked Sun Qing. That series of actions were done in one go, and it was obvious that it was premeditated.
"Bastard! You dared to attack an official of the imperial court. This is a capital crime and your entire family will be executed!”The pain of having his arms dislocated made Sun Qing's eyes turn red. He was even pressed to the ground by Qin Hao. He was extremely humiliated, and this made him roar angrily.
"Don't move!"
Qin Hao said coldly as he looked at the Embroidered Uniform Guards who had drawn their weapons and were about to attack him.
Among the four Embroidered Uniform Guards, the oldest middle-aged man did not lose his cool. He waved his hand to stop the other three and stared at Qin Hao."Duzhen, you attacked a Silver Embroidered Uniform Guard, this is no joke!”
Everyone was puzzled. Why would Qin Wu attack Sun Qing for no reason? Unless he was crazy!
Qin Hao didn't say anything. He searched Sun Qing's clothes with one hand and found an Embroidered Uniform Guard token and several small porcelain bottles.
Qin Hao opened the porcelain bottles one by one to take a look. A few of the small bottles contained healing medicinal pills, but Qin Hao opened a small black bottle that contained dark red blood that had already solidified!
Qin Hao knew that his judgment was correct. This Sun Qing had indeed cultivated the Blood Demon Technique. He was most likely a disciple of the Blood Demon Sect, just like the three Blood Cloud Bandit leaders. However, the three Blood Cloud Bandit leaders were outer sect disciples, and this Sun Qing was most likely an inner sect disciple!
