At this moment, seeing that the hand of the man in black was just a few inches away from Qin Tian, Qin Tian, who should have been sleeping soundly on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed the wrist of the man in black.
Such a sudden turn of events made the man in black tremble slightly. He was extremely horrified. When he tried to pull his hand back, he felt as if his wrist was clamped by an iron clamp. No matter how hard he tried, he could not move it at all.
At this moment, one could clearly see the cold sweat on the forehead of the man in black, and he was obviously in a panic.
How is it possible!?
The man in black was shocked to the extreme. He had already put smoke in the room before. This was no ordinary smoke. It could even make a strong man at the peak of the Heavenly Venerate Realm unconscious.
The most important thing is that you can't escape from this smoke by holding your breath. As long as it comes into contact with your skin, the smoke will still be effective.
Plop!
The man in black calmed down a bit and knelt on the ground. "Master! I... I said I was just passing by. Can you believe me?"
Qin Tian smiled and said, "What do you think?"
The black-clad man's words really made Qin Tian laugh. Then, as Qin Tian finished speaking, he took off the veil on his face.
Under the black veil, there was an extremely thin face, very high cheekbones, slightly sunken cheeks, eyes that were neither big nor small, and a mole at the right corner of the mouth. It was not ugly, but it was definitely not good-looking.
"Master! It's all because of me being bewildered. Please spare my life! I have elderly parents and young children to take care of, it's really difficult! Otherwise, I... I would never do such a dirty thing." The man in black pleaded in a crying voice.
Qin Tian stood up from the bed and the moment he let go of the man in black, he pressed his acupuncture points and sealed his cultivation. "What's your name, and why are you here?"
The man in black was instantly sealed by Qin Tian's cultivation, and his heart sank. The situation was now determined, and he became a fish on the chopping board to be slaughtered. "To answer your question, my name is Jin San, and I came here just to steal something good."
Qin Tian asked, "Why did you choose me? Are you sure I have something good?"
Jin San smiled awkwardly, "I happened to be eating here today. That strange fragrance must be the fragrance of elixir!
Although it lasted for a short time, the two people who protected me were also very smart. They kept some distance from the door and pretended to be suspicious very well.
But I could still tell that they were protecting this house. Even though they were some distance away, the position they were standing in could still protect the house well.
But... I'm still not sure, so... so..."
Jin San hesitated at this point, and then Qin Tian took over and said, "So while I was out, you sneaked in to investigate and confirmed it."
Hearing Qin Tian's words, Jin San was a little surprised and nodded woodenly. He didn't want to say it because he was afraid that Qin Tian would get angry if he knew and would not let him go.
Now that Qin Tian had spoken for him, he had nothing to hide. However, after regaining his composure, Jin San asked in surprise, "Master, I have a question for you!"
"You want to know how I discovered someone had been in my room. You also want to know why that substance that can charm a peak-level Tianzun realm expert, even one who gets their skin contaminated, can't work on me, right?"
Hearing this, Jin San nodded dully. At this moment, he was not shocked, but only frightened. Qin Tian in front of him seemed to see through everything about him, as if nothing could be hidden from Qin Tian.
"I believe that my concealment skills are very good, and I didn't move anything in the house. I just walked a few steps, and I erased all traces and restored them perfectly.
"Furthermore, the smoke I developed has defeated even the strongest at the Heavenly Venerable level. There has been no exception over the years!" Jin San said with some pride.
He does have reason to be proud, as his record over the years has been quite good.
"It's very simple. There is a smell in the room that doesn't belong here. As for the smoke, I am not afraid of any poison in the world." Qin Tian said lightly.
Hearing this, Jin San nodded. This time he had hit a wall. This was the first time Jin San had failed in all these years.
"Master, I will accept any punishment you plan to give me, but can you please spare my life? I... I just wanted to steal some good things and didn't mean to hurt anyone. My crime doesn't deserve the death penalty!" Jin San pleaded.
Qin Tian smiled slightly, "If you had the intention to kill, you wouldn't be able to speak intact like you are now."
Hearing Qin Tian's words, Jin San was stunned, and cold sweat covered his back. He couldn't help but feel fortunate. If he had the intention to kill, then with Qin Tian's methods, he would probably be a dead body at this moment.
"Thank you for not killing me!" Jin San hurriedly thanked him.
Qin Tian said calmly, "Okay, no need to be so polite. I do have something to ask you."
"Master, just ask me, I will tell you everything I know!" Jin San said hurriedly.
This is an opportunity to atone for his sins. His life is now in Qin Tian's hands, so he naturally has to obey Qin Tian's orders.
Qin Tian nodded slowly, and then asked, "How much do you know about Kaoshan Sect? No matter what it is, tell me as much as you know, especially some special things."
Hearing this, Jin San was slightly stunned and looked surprised. He had a vague premonition in his heart, but he didn't say much. Knowing too much is not a good thing.
"I need to think about this carefully, Master. You don't know that the people in the Kaoshan Sect are very cautious. They built the sect so solid that it is as strong as a rock. It is difficult for the people in the sect to go down the mountain and walk. Any news within the sect is strictly blocked."
Hearing Jin San say this, Qin Tian nodded slightly. He had plenty of patience to let Jin San think slowly.
Seeing that Qin Tian was not in a hurry, Jin San also breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down. He kept thinking about everything about Kaoshan Sect, but he couldn't figure it out after thinking about it.
For a full half hour, Qin Tian remained calm and didn't say anything, but Jin San himself became a little impatient.
"Don't worry, think about it slowly, starting from some special yet insignificant things." Qin Tian said lightly.
Hearing this, Jin San's eyes lit up instantly, and then he said, "I remember, a few years ago, Xu Xianglong, a disciple of Kaoshan Sect, lived in Tang City for a long time. At that time, his legs were limping, and I saw him once.
Although he lived there for quite a while, he didn't show up very often, and there weren't any rumors about him in the city, so people forgot about him after a while.
Apart from this one thing, there is really nothing else, really nothing else."
Hearing this, Qin Tian nodded slightly, a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth. This matter was indeed abnormal and might be a breakthrough.
"Where did Xu Xianglong live at that time?" Qin Tian asked hurriedly.
