One-Click Upgrade: Super Decomposition System

Chapter 278 - Disassembling the Corpse

Jia Renjie regained his composure and fixed his gaze on Jiang Hao, speaking with a steady voice.

“Out with it. What are your terms for letting me go?”

In that moment, there was no attempt at deceit or pleas for mercy; he simply asked Jiang Hao to state his demands.

He hadn't anticipated that the ace up his sleeve would fold at the hands of a high school student.

Ying, his ace, had been flawlessly executing special assignments for him for years, never once failing.

Moreover, just forty days ago, he had made a sudden breakthrough to become a martial cultivator, multiplying his strength several-fold.

Yet, even with such power, he had been bested by a mere high schooler.

He was certainly not his incompetent younger brother, Jia Renyi!

Realizing that excuses and threats were futile, he cut to the chase and asked Jiang Hao to lay out his terms.

As a businessman, he believed in the power of profit to sway hearts, that money could turn the wheels of fate.

But he was clueless about Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao observed Jia Renjie, who had initially shown a flicker of panic before quickly regaining his poise, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

“True to form for the formidable Jia scion, your composure is quite impressive!”

“However, you don't have the slightest clue about me.”

With those words, Jiang Hao closed the distance with a few strides, locking eyes with Jia Renjie and enunciating each word clearly.

“Do not cross me, and I shall not cross you.”

He then placed his hand on Jia Renjie's shoulder and pushed down forcefully.

“Crack!”

The sound of snapping bones filled the air. Jia Renjie winced in pain, his mouth opening to scream.

But at that instant, Jiang Hao revealed a white pill identical to the one he had given Jia Renyi.

He swiftly covered Jia Renjie's mouth.

The pill was ingested in an instant, sliding down Jia Renjie's throat.

Jia Renjie's pupils dilated as he fixed his stare on Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao met his gaze and spoke with an icy tone.

“The Jia Family was warned not to mess with me, but you didn't listen.

So now, you'll get a firsthand taste of the terror that comes with provoking a master of poisons!”

Having finished speaking, Jiang Hao extended his hand and firmly pressed on Jia Renjie's mute acupoint.

He then casually tossed Jia Renjie to the ground without sparing him a second glance.

Next, he hoisted the lifeless body of the Black-cloaked Man over his shoulder, turned, and vanished into the corridor.

In the corridor, Jia Renjie's mouth opened in silent screams, no sound escaping his lips.

Suddenly, an unbearable itchiness erupted across his face.

He scratched frantically, and soon his face was a raw, bloody mess.

The itch quickly spread throughout his body, prompting him to tear at his clothes and scratch all over in a frenzy.

……

Meanwhile, in the shadowy corridor, Jiang Hao clutched the deceased Black-cloaked Man and stealthily connected with the system in his mind.

“Disintegrate!”

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for disassembling a human corpse. You have obtained an incomplete Human Pill, plus one skill point and one experience point!”

Incomplete Human Pill: A pill crafted from the essence of a martial cultivator who has just embarked on the Martial Path. Consuming this pill grants the inheritor the full strength of that martial cultivator!

“Disintegration complete. Would you like to extract it?”

As the Black-cloaked Man's body dissipated from Jiang Hao's grasp, the system's prompt followed.

Jiang Hao was taken aback by the disassembly's yield.

“A Mortal Pill? A pill concocted from a human?”

“Hiss…”

“The items yielded from the system's disintegration are getting more fantastical by the moment. Now, even a Mortal Pill has emerged!”

“But really, who could stomach such a pill?”

The thought of consuming a pill made from a person made Jiang Hao queasy.

“Never mind, I'll keep it. Perhaps it can be used to cultivate my own followers!”
