Chapter 52：Free-For-All Rumble (3) (1/2)
Chapter 52 – Free-For-All Rumble (3)
The crowd was silent, looking at the smiling madman punching Yu Lin. Even after the scholar died, Xu Miao didn't stop.
Nobody dared to stop Xu Miao either as they were aware of his background and status. None of them wanted to become Silver Phoenix Sect's enemy.
But one daredevil girl pulled Xu Miao from Yu Lin. Wei Yuan dragged his shoulders and threw him away from the victim.
”Stop! That's enough already!”
Xu Miao's pupils were still glittering in murderous intent, locking his sight onto Yu Lin, who had already died from a concussion and internal bleeding. He still wanted to beat the dead body until Yu Lin's skull shattered into pieces.
”I said, STOP!!”
*PA*
Wei Yuan slapped Xu Miao's face.
The onlookers sucked their cold breath. They were afraid of what was about to come after this.
Xu Miao slowly regained his senses. He glanced at the girl who had slapped him, but the pupils still revealed the sinister light of a serial killer.
Wei Yuan could tell by just looking into the pitch-black eyes. These were the eyes of a psychopath murderer, who hardly cared about another person's life.
Seeing that Xu Miao had not sobered, Wei Yuan planned to slap him again.
Suddenly, Xu Miao seized her neck and activated his Qi absorption skill.
”Ugh!”
Her Qi was slowly taken away by the mysterious force. She widened her eyes in shock and fear.
Wei Yuan never scared of her opponents regardless of how overwhelming they were. However, she was afraid that Xu Miao would discover her secret once her Qi entered his bloodstream.
”???”
Xu Miao froze when he detected the anomaly. He tossed her away and sat cross-legged, concentrating on containing the new energy.

Xu Miao was never drunk or lost his sanity during his bloodlust state. In fact, he was aware of what he did, and he had full control of his conscience. Torturing his opponents to death gave him the same pleasure as having sex.
Also, whenever Xu Miao was in a tamed environment, such as the brothel or the public, he never revealed his bloodlust or slaughtered anyone. But when Xu Miao was in an environment that he could justify murder and scotch free, he never hesitated to kill.
The robbery attempts at the bar and the safe zone gave Xu Miao a reason to kill, and he never missed those opportunities. Unfortunately, someone always ruined his fun.

Xu Miao thought that this blond girl was one of Yu Lin's friends. At first, he planned to drain her energy and kill her as he did to Yu Lin's bodyguards.
However, the demonic Qi changed everything. Xu Miao stopped what he had planned to do to control the rampaging Qi.
'Demonic Qi!? System, I thought there were only 3 types of Qi in this world? What's this about and how can I control it!?'

'Oh?'
Demonic Body Strengthening Technique was a skill that Xu Miao had bought from the system, costing him 100 Yang Essence.
The usage of this demonic technique was simple. By consuming 100 strands of Yang Qi, Xu Miao could activate it, increasing his physical strength by ten percent. If the activation cost was 200 strands, the effect would be 20%, and so on. Fortunately, the upkeep cost was cheap as Xu Miao needed to spend Qi strands equal to 1% of the activation cost every minute.
That was the entire technique. It just buffed his physical strength, speed, reflex, and agility.
However, the system never told him that the technique could be used this way.
'How many strands or essence can I get by converting this demonic Qi? Will it worth the technique activation cost?'
This was Xu Miao's concern. If the conversion rate was 1 to 1, regardless of Yin or Yang Qi Xu Miao could obtain in return, it wasn't worth it.

'Wha-!?'
The conversion rate was crazy. If the current 451 demonic Qi could be exchanged into 4,510 strands of Yang Qi and Yin Qi, investing his Qi by using demonic body strengthening to digest it would be worthwhile.
