…
The first one who has reached near him was supposed to be dead. His goal at that time was to directly take his life. That way the others would be afraid to attack him. But because of the poor accuracy of the Ki buster, he did not get that result… instead, the group was angered.
And so the group began running towards the direction of the camouflage array and behind it, Xin Ja was a bit startled.
He takes out his short sword from the ring and prepares himself for battle.
When the leader of the group walks through the camouflage array, he was immediately startled to see that he found himself in a forest area.
His surroundings are full of trees, and he could not see anyone around him.
Bang!!!
He suddenly heard a loud explosion from his surroundings and it quickly made him stand in a defensive position. He positioned himself lower to the ground while looking around him.
"This is a beguiling array…" he muttered as he quickly closes his eyes to feel his surroundings.
He could then hear the cry of his teammate from beside him.
Then he heard a sound which made him quickly throw a dagger in that direction.
Swoosh!!!
The dagger flew and Xin Ja immediately knew that if he did not dodge then he would be in danger. With a quick turn of his body, he was able to somehow dodge the dagger.
He did not hesitate and quickly fire another shot after reloading.
Bang!!!
Another one fell but the leader was spared.
He almost cursed and feels a bit curious at the luck of the leader of the group.
"Sir… We are getting slaughtered here! That is not a one-time use artifact! We have to escape now!" shouted one of the hooded men.
"Damn it! Damn it! Kid… when I see you again, you are going to die!" shouted the leader as he quickly rushes back.
Although the beguilement array is able to distract their eyes, it is not enough to trap them in one place. Hence the group was able to run away.
However, the one inside the array was unlucky as they were left by the group who has no choice.
"Wait! Don't leave me!" cried the person while he clutches his stomach which was torn open by the power of the Ki buster.
Suddenly, a figure appears from his sight and before he could do anything, he feels that something enters his neck making him unable to move.
Xin Ja quickly stabilized the condition of the man and at the same time reloaded the Ki buster. He then shifted his gaze to the roof and pointed the muzzle of the Ki buster in the direction of the person hiding in the dark.
Then he saw that figure suddenly disappearing as it runs away.
"Hmm… Coward…" Xin Ja said as he looks at his side.
There was a dagger wound which grazed the side of his stomach. If he was late for a few milliseconds them that dagger would have torn his body to two.
The long gash was caused by the Ki energy that envelopes the thrown dagger… and that energy alone is already enough to wound him that badly.
But Xin Ja did not mind the wound. He just grits his teeth and lets the residue of the pill he took heal his wound.
"Luckily then retreated… if not, then I would have been in danger." He muttered as he knew that he could not kill them all at that time.
If the leader would have been persistent, then he could find his location even if he is under the beguiling array.
With the use of his senses, then he would be able to finally corner him like a rat, and Xin Ja would be powerless before that group.
But thankfully they became afraid of the Ki buster and the damages it is able to deal with them.
But what he did not like about its performance is its extremely inaccurate shots.
"I guess, I should really put some rifling inside the barrel of the Ki buster." He thought as he waited to the side while the man slowly recovers.
He is also waiting for any town enforcer to come. But after waiting for a long time, he did not see anyone.
Soon, the guy slowly became a bit fine and his face has regained its color.
In the darkness, Xin Ja was able to see this because of his good eyesight which he has developed within the dark forest while hunting.
"Alright, let me ask you something… depending on your answer will you be able to live." He said while squatting on the ground.
"Who ask you guys to do this?" he said while looking at the man's eyes.
Xin Ja removes the needle from the guy's neck and places it on his shoulder.
"You… how…" before the guy could say anything else, the needle went back to his neck and deprives him of his voice.
"Answer what I ask, or I silence you forever… Again who told you to attack me?" Xin Ja warned.
When the guy was able to talk again, Xin Ja could see the hesitation in his eyes.
"I guess… you chose death…" he said as he prepares his sword.
"Wait!… Wait!… It… it was the Ji family. We were hired by them…" he said with gritted teeth.
"Hmm… See it's not that hard to answer, right? Thank you…" Xin Ja said with a smile.
He then stood up and left the man in that area. The array would last for 2 days before the energy from the bone array would be gone and the bone array would turn into dust. And in those two days, this guy would suffer. He could only rely on his luck if he can survive this ordeal or not.
Xin Ja stick through the shadows as he went home. He already knew who his enemy is, but he needed preparation before he could make a move on them. The Ji family is one of the big families in the town. He could not easily take them down just like that.
Plus he would be facing a lot of trouble if he did so and this would also implicate his father. So, he decided not to retaliate for now.
Maybe after he is able to perfect his Ki buster, then that would be the right time to retaliate.
…
Inside his room, Xin Ja began to quickly disassemble and craft the Ki buster once again. This time, he is going to put rifling on the bore of the Ki buster, this way… the stability and accuracy would increase.
He then began creating more bullets which consumed his entire remaining stack of fire crystals.
"Hmm… I need to buy more fire crystals…" he thought.
Compare to the material called gun powder according to what Xin Ja learned, fire crystals are more powerful and easy to create. Plus once they are fired, they do not leave any traces or harmful residue. That is why Xin Ja used it as a propellant after experimenting.
He then began to concoct some healing pills after taking out some of the extra herbs he hid in his ring.
After taking another pill to completely heal his wounds, Xin Ja donned his mask and was about to leave the house in secret when he notice Yao Xue walking towards his room.
"Why does she seem a bit sneaky?" he thought while listening to her footsteps.
Creak!
His door opens and Yao Xue enters with a small basin in her arms and some bandages.
"Little Ja… are you here?" she called in a low tone.
"Hey, what are you doing here Sister Xue…" Xin Ja asked as he walks from the corner.
"I… I saw you entering the house with traces of wound. I was worried…" Yao Xue said as she puts down the basin.
"I'm fine… I was not hurt that much… Thank you…" Xin Ja said with a smile.
"Hmm… Are… are you going out? Uncle is not home yet and you have not eaten your dinner…" she asked with a frown.
"I'm fine… I just wanted to take a stroll outside…" Xin Ja asked.
"With your mask and that suit?" she smirked while lifting one of her brows.
"Your senses are really sharp Sister Xue… Hehe…" Xin Ja said while smiling sheepishly.
"Hmm… I know I could not stop you… But... be careful, okay?" she said with a smile.
"Haha… Alright, do you want anything for me to buy?" Xin Ja asked with a smile.
"Umm… You can buy me anything…" she said as she walks out of the room.
…
That night, Xin Ja directly went to the night market. He first bought something for Yao Xue, and then went directly to the herb store.
But it seems that the enemy would always meet when you least expect it. While walking out of the herbal store after buying what he needed, he went to the materials store next, on his way he heard some people talking.
He could almost immediately recognize one of the voices from that group. And upon doing so, he quickly turns his sight towards the direction of the group.
From where he stood, he could see a group of men drinking on the second-floor terrace of a restaurant.
