Chapter 15 - 12: Military Department Special Supply

"General, I’m just the son of Su Qingfeng, not Su Qingfeng himself.

"He’s in the prison in Cengyan City right now. If you want revenge on him, go break him out. I support you.

"Is bullying a high school student fun for you!"

Su Yue couldn’t take it anymore; the pressure was everywhere, and he was about to explode. It really was too painful.

You’re at least a major general; are you really heartless enough to bully an outstanding youth!

"Bully you?

"Do you even deserve it? Don’t think I don’t know; you’ve been going back and forth to Xiong Taiguang’s place for at least half a year. Do you really not know his identity?

"Knowing but not reporting is harboring a criminal. Since you’re a minor, you might get a lesser sentence, but a year or two at least. If that happens, you’ll miss the college entrance exam, won’t you?"

Pan Yizheng sneered.

This son of Su Qingfeng has some tricks. Even though his Qi Blood seems to be only 6 cards, he’s obviously hiding his strength.

At 6 cards of Qi Blood, one would have fainted long ago.

Su Yue kept his head down, not speaking.

What he feared had come; the enemy had tracked him down, practically seeking to kill him.

The Investigation and Arrest Bureau knew he had been delivering meals for a long time but chose to selectively forget.

But the Military Department wasn’t so easy to fool.

"On this table is a statement of circumstances. If you can walk over and sign it, I’ll let you go this time.

"If you can’t walk over, you’re just stupid. After all, you probably won’t get into Wuda, so might as well go to jail."

Pan Yizheng tapped his fingers on an A4 paper on the table.

Su Yue looked up.

He was ten steps away from the table, but now, even one step was out of reach for him.

"Look on the floor; there are ten Qi Blood Pills. They are special military supplies, doubling the effect. One pill can triple your cultivation effect.

"For every step you take forward, you can take one pill."

Pan Yizheng lay back in his chair, legs crossed on the table, looking like some idler.

Su Yue looked down.

Sure enough, ten pills lay on the ground, each one crystal clear, worthy of being special military supplies, much better quality than what Xiong Taiguang provided.

"General, let’s not beat around the bush. What’s your real purpose?"

Su Yue felt like he was being lured into a trap.

"To see if you’re qualified to take Xiong Taiguang’s one million bounty."

Pan Yizheng continued sneering.

Su Yue turned his head to look, the cameras were covered, and there was no one around.

Fine, whatever.

Do you really think I’m just a sickly cat?

For the sake of my father’s reputation, for freedom, for those ten Qi Blood Pills... I’ll go all out.

Su Yue wasted no time.

Today was a special case; exposing his strength wouldn’t hurt.

Clink, clank.

Four silver needles fell to the ground, even denting the protective mat.

One step, two steps... three steps, four steps...

Su Yue walked four steps in one go, and he took four Qi Blood Pills.

At 6 cards of Qi Blood, I’m a wimp.

But when I unleash my full power, it’s 13 cards, close to the score needed for B-level Wuda.

The Grandmaster’s pressure is just a kind of momentum, not a physical attack.

And Su Yue felt that the guy in front of him wasn’t even using his full strength; he was just making things difficult for him.

"So that’s it, Xiong Taiguang gave him the ’Nine Needle Burden’."

Pan Yizheng furrowed his brow, looking surprised!

A high school sophomore with 13 cards of Qi Blood is already quite impressive.

If nothing unexpected happens and after being tormented by the potential class for another year, he could easily accumulate 17 cards of Qi Blood, enough for an A-level Wuda.

Pan Yizheng had heard of the Nine Needle Burden, but after Xiong Taiguang’s team was wiped out, there was no more news.

The sixth one!

Su Yue’s eyes were red, his face covered in bulging veins.

He didn’t know what it felt like to be doused in sulfuric acid, but he thought the current pain was definitely worse than that.

Diligence Value +1

Diligence Value +1

Su Yue looked at the system; his Diligence Value had reached 83 points.

Picking up these few Qi Blood Pills was more painful than delivering takeout for a week.

Let’s just call it special training!

Actually, not only was his Diligence Value increasing, but his internal Qi Blood was also breaking through, dozens of times stronger than running.

"Su Qingfeng’s son, don’t let me and your father down; keep going."

Pan Yizheng sneered!

He wasn’t angry because the pills were taken.

"My name is Su Yue; my father is my father, and I am me."

Su Yue gritted his teeth and replied sullenly.

This guy is just sick. If you had a daughter, I’d definitely chase her, then dump her, then reconcile, and then dump her again.

I want your daughter to never believe in love for the rest of her life.

Pissing me off!

Pan Yizheng shifted his weight on the chair, damn hemorrhoids were incurable.

Back when Su Qingfeng hit me, it was miserable.

Now, making his son suffer a bit is not too much.

Although, that beating was secretly Su Qingfeng helping me:

"Prince Qing, that time you cleared the clots from my blood vessels, these 10 Qi Blood Pills today are my initial gesture of gratitude.

"Your son is excellent. Rest assured in prison.

"If he joins the Miracle Corps, I’ll torture him for you again; giving too much now isn’t good for him either.

"I can’t conveniently visit you in prison, so work on reforming yourself. Try to start anew, haha!"

The bones in Su Yue’s body were faintly cracking, and finally, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

This isn’t an internal injury; it’s because Su Yue bit through his gums. Pan Yizheng was careful with his strength.

A man has to be a bit ruthless to himself!

The eighth pill!

At this stage, it’s entirely greed for the Qi Blood Pill that’s supporting Su Yue.

He absolutely must take all the Qi Blood Pills.

Life can be forsaken, but the pills cannot be lost.

I am just this greedy.

Reward System points +1

Reward System points +1

Just a few steps and my Reward System points are now at 87.

"Little chicken, don’t embarrass Prince Qing; keep walking."

Pan Yizheng laughed disdainfully.

He was inducing Su Yue, also considered as provocation.

The closer it gets to the end, the more crucial it becomes, as it’s a matter of willpower.

Even Pan Yizheng envied Su Yue, for being personally guided by a Major General. How fortunate you must be.

"No need for your reminder, a major general, babbling on!"

Su Yue was in such pain he felt like swallowing poison to end it.

But with only one Qi Blood Pill left, how could he give up?

Thump!

Finally, Su Yue lay on the ground, pocketing the tenth Qi Blood Pill.

Success.

He picked up a pen and hurriedly signed the situational report.

By signing, it proves he’s innocent.

Phew!

With everything done, Su Yue lay flat on his back on the ground.

Let the storm come, no matter what, there’s nothing left in him.

Qi Blood Pills specially supplied by the Military Department, the price could triple.

Selling them on the black market, ten pills would fetch 150,000, or even more with a premium.

He’s made a fortune.

"Xiong Taiguang asked me to let you know he realizes his mistake!"

After catching his breath, Su Yue spoke.

"Hmm, got it!"

The atmosphere was somewhat heavy again, with a sense of helplessness lingering in the air.

"His body?"

"Don’t worry, I’ll cremate him with the honors of a hero!"

"Thanks!"

Su Yue didn’t know why he said thanks either!

...

"General, have you finished questioning?"

Finally, Admiral Li Xingpei arrived tardy.

When she opened the interrogation room door, she instantly felt the pressure of a Grandmaster.

Seeing Su Yue lying on the ground, Li Xingpei immediately understood the situation.

"General Pan, Su Yue is an outstanding young man from Cengyan City. As a Grandmaster, treating him like this seems inappropriate."

Wang Nanguo had just informed Li Xingpei of some grievances.

She hurried over.

Luckily, although Su Yue was weak, he was merely exhausted, not injured.

Li Xingpei was somewhat angry.

"Admiral, the General was playing with me, testing me.

"As long as I pass the test, the General promised me 5 Qi Blood Pills. I’ve just passed the evaluation, but haven’t received the pills yet!"

Before Pan Yizheng could speak, Su Yue already painfully crawled up.

He glared at Pan Yizheng with a sarcastic look.

You old dog, you dared to mess with me?

I’ll make you bleed again.

The silver needles were reinserted, Su Yue’s Qi Blood was suppressed, making him look even more pitiful.

The Admiral’s Mansion was Su Yue’s temporary backing.

"You..."

Pan Yizheng was so angry his teeth ached.

"Since it’s just for fun, then thank you for your generosity, General Pan. Honestly, even I can’t get my hands on the Military Department’s specially supplied Qi Blood Pills, so I thank you on behalf of Su Yue."

Li Xingpei signaled an investigator to help Su Yue up.

"You’re welcome!"

Pan Yizheng turned and left.

You little brat, you tricked me, I’ll remember this.

No good, the hemorrhoids are hurting again, better go to the bathroom and apply some ointment.

"5 pills, am I extorting too little? Never mind, don’t be too greedy."

Su Yue let out a long breath; he could actually see that Pan Yizheng was here to give him things.

So he dared to extort 5 Qi Blood Pills.

Reward System points +1

Su Yue checked the system: Reward System points: 91.

"Su Yue, you have quite the guts, daring to extort even a Major General."

After leaving the interrogation room, Li Xingpei threw 5 Qi Blood Pills at Su Yue.

This guy has some nerve.

What’s up with Pan Yizheng’s situation?

Did he lose everything trying to gain something?
