Chereads / Reborn As a Jiangshi / Chapter 39 - Strange

Chapter 39 - Strange

We walked and walked

It took half a day but we reached halfway there

"Master can we rest for the night so me and my junior brother can train" Jeong asked

"Sure, how about some field training" I said grinning

Jeongs eyes wired as he realized what I meant

"Junior back to back!" Jeong yelled at Cao

They quickly got into position

"You you noticed us eh? Just give us your money and we will let you go, you guys don't look like a part of the orthidox faction" a bald headed man said

'Reminds me of those monks except a lot cruder' I thought

"We don't have a-a-any money sirs" Cao asked

"Stop being a coward you're my disciple!" I yelled at Cao

"Don't do anything stupid I'm at the meridian opening stage, much higher then you weaklings" The would be thief stated arrogantly

There were five in total thre of witch were at the core formation stage with one at qi condensation

At this information my face fell

'This isn't even worth Jeong fighting' I thought

"Jeong you back off leave it to your junior to take care of them" I ordered

"But master you still haven't taught me martial-" Cao started saying

"Use your previous clans arts until you learn them to proficiency" I told him

"But I-" Cao started saying

"Can you not even do this simple task? What kind of pathetic ant did I take as a disciple?" I said as to motivate him to get some confidence

The Cao shut up

There was a different look in his eyes now

He ran forward with recklessness

Then a green mist started to cover him

He ran at the meridian opening martial artist only to grab his face

'What the fuck is he doin-' then I remembered that green smoke was poison and shut my mouth

The poison seeped into the man's lungs and a gurgleing sound was all you could hear from him after a second

Then he retracted the smoke to stay around his fist and he ran at the next one punching them only to leave that part of their body to rot away as he went to the next enemy

At the end all of the thieves were either on the ground screaming their lungs out or already dead

'Very nice' I thought

"That was a good showing of your true skills eh Cao Tang?" I asked

"I don't know what you're talking about" he stated

"Oh shut up I know your hiding the fact that your a reincarnator or some shit like that, yea?" I asked

"H-how did you know" Cao asked

'Got it good think I read a lot of novels' I thought

"The way you act, the way you fight, the way you train. I can see you hold yourself back to seem weaker. Why is that?" I asked

Cao Tang visibly tensed

"What we're you a demon martial artist in the past" I asked

Then he lunged at me by I just grabbed his face while he fell limp

"Calm down dumbass you think I'm not one too?" I said

"How did you know I was a demonic martial artist?" He asked after calming down

"With the way you fought it was obvious, that brutality, and sadism could only be a demon" I said

"And you should know the art I used to transform you was a demonic martial art" I stated

"So stop hiding your potential and follow me" I said
