Chapter 31 Waste Utilization

  "What person?" Yin Zhi Ping was shocked and lost color, raised his eyes to look, but saw a handsome young man jumping out of the tree thicket, looking somewhat familiar, thinking for a moment, then exclaimed, "Yang Guo, it's you!"

  "Haha, that's right, it's me, you didn't expect it, did you?" Wu Ming sneered with a smile, but in his heart, he secretly sighed. After replacing Yang Guo, a series of butterfly effects indeed occurred. In the past, Yin Zhiping in The Return of the Condor Hero was despicable, but not as sinister and vicious as this. This shows that one's mindset and environment still have a great impact on a person.

  "What do you want?" Yin Zhiping's face turned pale with a mixture of anger and fear towards Wu Ming, who had suddenly appeared.

  This fear, apart from worrying that Wu Ming would inform their school about his misdeeds, also stemmed from the opponent's move earlier, which was unheard of and unimaginable. This strange and wonderful kung fu made him think of the internal energy that had suddenly been sucked away four years ago, leaving him even more frightened.

  "Hmph, what do you have to say for yourself? You not only trespass on forbidden ground, but also injure a fellow disciple, and even harbor evil intentions towards my senior sister. A scum of the martial world like you deserves to be executed by anyone, how could I, Yang Wuming, possibly let you off?" Wu Ming sneered coldly as he slowly closed in on Yin Zhiping.

  Yin Zhiping was speechless, but suddenly grabbed Zhao Zhirong who had fainted beside him and roared at Wu Ming: "Stop, don't let him move forward, otherwise I'll kill this Zhao Zhirong with one palm first."

  It was unclear whether it was the experience of that year that left a psychological shadow on Yin Zhiping, or if Wu Ming's extraordinary move earlier had stunned him. In any case, as Wu Ming approached step by step, he was internally panicked and completely flustered.

  "You're kidding, right? Zhao Zhi Jing hasn't been my master for a long time. You want to kill him, what does it have to do with me?" Seeing the other side threatening his own life with Zhao Zhi Jing's life, Wu Ming almost burst out laughing.

  "Yang Guo, you're pushing me too far, I'll fight you to the end!" Yin Zhi Ping roared, suddenly throwing Zhao Zhi Jing as a hidden projectile towards Wu Ming, while he himself flew backward, leaping up and frantically fleeing towards the outside of the mountain valley.

  "Alas, this guy has let me down." Wu Ming shook his head with a wry smile and caught the flying Zhao Zhi Jing, then quickly pressed several acupoints on his body to prevent him from dying of excessive blood loss.

  For a martial artist, the greatest pain is not death, but losing what they have learned throughout their life.

  Wu Ming just wanted Zhao Zhi Jing to experience the taste of being worse off than dead, otherwise he wouldn't have rescued him at a critical moment earlier.

  "Junior brother, I'll go after her." Little Dragon Maiden flew out from among the trees.

  "Sister, I'll go instead. You wait here and I'll be back soon." Wu Ming shook his head with a smile, and before Little Dragon Girl could respond, he had already deployed the ancient tomb sect's top-notch light skill, flying out like a wisp of smoke.

  Wu Ming's movements were elegant and effortless, paired with his tall and straight physique, making him look extraordinary.

  The little dragon girl couldn't help but reveal a dazed expression in her eyes, and secretly praised in her heart: "My junior brother's lightness skill is getting more and more formidable."

  Wu Ming's kung fu had long reached a very high level, and even Little Dragon Girl herself felt inferior, so she wasn't worried about him being in any danger.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, Wu Ming soon returned, with an unconscious Yin Zhiping in his hands.

  Yin Zhiping was thrown to the ground, Wu Ming smiled and said: "Sister, I've caught the person, what do you think we should do next?" In fact, Wu Ming had already made up his mind, but he always respected Xiaolongnv and wanted to hear her opinion.

  Xiao Long Nu first smiled slightly to show her appreciation, then furrowed her brow and said: "Younger martial brother, this matter is of great importance. We'd best not take matters into our own hands. It would be better to hand them over to the Quanzhen Sect to deal with themselves. Otherwise, we might stir up unnecessary trouble."

  Wu Ming smiled and said, "Sister, I agree with your opinion, but these two guys broke into our ancient tomb sect's forbidden land. If we let them go back so easily, wouldn't it make our ancient tomb sect seem too easy to deal with?"

  The little dragon girl thought for a moment and also felt that it was reasonable. She then asked, "In your opinion, how should they be dealt with before being released?"

  When asked by Little Dragon Girl, Wu Ming suddenly thought that since Zhao Zhi's martial arts were completely abolished, why not absorb his internal energy and then give the obtained internal energy to Sun Bao, which would not only avenge her but also gain great benefits, wouldn't it be a win-win situation?

  Just as Wu Ming thought of this, a crisp prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.

  "Ding Dong!"

  "You have luckily triggered the Book Spirit System task [Trash Utilization]."

  "Task content: Drain the internal energy from Zhao Zhi Jing's body, which has been crippled by his martial arts skills, and transfer it to Grandma Sun."

  "Task time limit: within one day."

  "Quest Reward: One Mysterious Treasure Chest."

  The Book Spirit System hadn't issued a task in a long time, and Wu Ming had almost forgotten the existence of this system. The Book Spirit Storage Box he had obtained previously didn't seem to have much use either, as it was usually used by him to store some small trinkets.

  Now he suddenly heard this familiar task prompt again, Wu Ming's heart still had a particularly excited feeling, and this task was what he thought in his heart. Now that there is still a reward, why not?

  Haha, [waste utilization], indeed waste utilization, not bad, not bad.

  Wu Ming didn't speak for half a day, and Xiao Long Nu couldn't help but slap Wu Ming's cheek, then scolded: "Stinky little brother, what are you spacing out about? Why aren't you speaking?"

  Wu Ming deliberately made a bitter face and said: "Master sister, I'm thinking about how to deal with these two guys."

  "Then what did you think of?" Little Dragon Girl asked hurriedly.

  Wu Ming smiled and nodded: "This is definitely true. With Shidi taking action, one can take on two."

  The little dragon girl smiled and said: "Look at you showing off, then let's leave the two of them to you to deal with, I'll go hunting first."

  Xiao Longnu's answer was exactly what Wu Ming had expected. Some things were better left unknown to her, and besides, if they were to confront the Quanzhen Sect in person at a later time, it would inevitably involve her. So Wu Ming nodded and said: "Alright, thank you for your trouble, Sister."

  After seeing Xiaolongnv drift away, Wu Ming suddenly had no restrictions. He first sucked out all the true energy from Zhao Zhi Jing's body, and only then did he start thinking about how to deal with Yin Zhiping.

  For someone like Yin Zhiping who thinks he is upright, the best punishment is to let him lose both his reputation and integrity.

  This is now easily achievable.

  It's not that I'm afraid of ten thousand things, but rather that one in ten thousand might happen.

  Wu Ming knew well that giving the enemy an opportunity was tantamount to finding trouble for himself.

  But what Wu Ming is most worried about is Xiaolongnv's this point, and other things are not worrying.

  After a moment's thought, Wu Ming had an ingenious idea.

  Haha, just like this.
