CHAPTER 130: CHAPTER 77: FANNING THE FLAMES

However, his comprehension is quite good, plus there are similarities between martial arts cultivation techniques. As he achieved the cultivation level in other techniques, he made rapid progress in saber skills through mutual reference and comparison.

After a few months, he’s almost reached Great Success.

Time passed, and he practiced continuously for over three hours.

Lin Zheyu stopped, panting heavily.

[Heaven rewards diligence]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 5

Skills:

Wild Bull Fist (Perfection)

Golden Swan Skill (Sixth Layer 12%)

Turtle Breath Skill (Third Layer 3%)

Six Harmonies Blade (Minor Achievement 58%)

Poison King Body (First Layer 0%)

"Sure enough, after reaching Qi Blood First Transformation, for every three training sessions, one would increase by two units of Source Power."

Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness and said to himself.

During his days on White Stone Mountain, after the medicinal herbs ran out, every time he surpassed his limits and obtained Source Power, he could only accumulate it with no place to use it.

He accumulated three units of Source Power there, and today he gained two more units, now totaling five units of Source Power.

"I need to find a way to make money."

Lin Zheyu said to himself.

Among the cultivation techniques, only Wild Bull Fist reached Perfection, while Poison King Body is still at zero percent. This technique can be disregarded for a while as it’s too costly in the short term.

After resting for a while, Lin Zheyu stood up.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he began refining the power of Qi Blood.

Due to not having enough herbs to enhance his strength, Lin Zheyu could only let his body recover slowly now.

However, with his physique at Qi Blood First Transformation, as long as he replenishes sufficient nutrition, he can quickly recover to the Peak. This is the strength of Qi Blood.

Qi Blood has an extremely powerful effect on relieving body soreness and healing injuries.

After cultivating for over half an hour, with some traces of Qi Blood strength circulating in his body, Lin Zheyu looked much better.

The strength of Qi Blood coursed through his body, seeping into his flesh and accelerating recovery.

Although he looked weak now, with his robust physique from Qi Blood First Transformation, combined with the recently cultivated Qi Blood strength, he could still easily crush a martial artist at the Peak of Refining Internal Organs.

After freshening up, he changed into a green robe.

Inside Feihong Tower.

"You’re here, sit."

Mr. Xu looked at Lin Zheyu and said with a smile.

After his strength improved to Qi Blood First Transformation, Lin Zheyu could now see through Mr. Xu’s strength, which was also at the level of Qi Blood First Transformation.

Sitting opposite Xu Jingwu, Lin Zheyu picked up the teapot on the table, poured Mr. Xu a cup of tea, and then filled his own.

"How was your month stationed on White Stone Mountain?" Xu Jingwu said with a smile.

"It was quite good, a great place to focus on martial arts training."

Lin Zheyu said.

"Haha!"

"You really live up to your reputation, with such great talent in martial arts and being so diligent. No wonder your strength has improved so rapidly. When you return, you should let Qinyi learn from you properly."

Xu Jingwu said with a smile.

"The gang leader overpraises me, it was just because it was so boring on White Stone Mountain with nothing to do that I could only practice martial arts."

Lin Zheyu humbly said.

"No need to be modest."

"Now that you’re back, remember to invite Yuxiang for a stroll, don’t just stay at home practicing martial arts all the time."

"While you were away this month, that girl Yuxiang often asked Qinyi about when you’d be back."

Xu Jingwu said with a smile, playing the matchmaker role.

"Uh..."

"I’ve only met Miss Yuxiang a few times and haven’t even spoken much. She’s indeed very beautiful, and her personality is also quite good, but she’s not my type."

Lin Zheyu clarified immediately.

His ambitions lie elsewhere; once he’s accumulated enough, he’ll leave Songyi City to move to a bigger stage.

"What a pity, Yuxiang missed out on such a good match."

"Tell me, what kind of girl do you like? Perhaps the Xu Family just happens to have a suitable match."

Mr. Xu said with a smile.

"My heart isn’t on this, I don’t plan to marry so early. Thank you for your concern, gang leader."

Lin Zheyu said.

"Then let’s not talk about this anymore."

Xu Jingwu nodded, given that the conversation had reached this point, he didn’t say more.

"Now that the Feihong Gang has lost some skilled hands, and Qiu Gaoxuan is severely injured and needs rest, what do you think about taking over Qiu Gaoxuan’s position?"

Xu Jingwu looked at Lin Zheyu with a smile and said.

Taking over Qiu Gaoxuan’s position?

Lin Zheyu was stunned, not expecting Xu Jingwu to promote his position.

"Is my strength sufficient? Won’t this cause dissatisfaction among other gang members?" Lin Zheyu said.

"Chen Mu is only at the Bone Forging Realm, yet many at the Refining Internal Organ Realm can’t match him. Since you can defeat him, your strength is already sufficient."

Xu Jingwu said.

"Thank you, gang leader. I’m willing to accept."

Lin Zheyu said.

Qiu Gaoxuan’s position is much more relaxed than Jia Yanrong’s, and the salary is higher, making it a decent job.

"Good, that’s settled then."

"The tasks in Songyi City are quite easy. If you have time, you can take on the gang’s transport missions, with pay calculated according to the goods transported and the distance traveled."

"But this is voluntary, you don’t have to take it."

"I heard from Qinyi that you often go out to hunt in Beast Roar Mountain, battling fierce beasts. After you take over Qiu Gaoxuan’s position, you can continue doing so; Jia Yanrong and the others are enough to manage things in the city."

"However, if we’re short on manpower and a task requires you, you’ll need to be present. Is that alright?" Xu Jingwu said with a smile.

He offered a very favorable deal, with hardly any requirements, making it almost like giving him free money.

"Thank you for your kindness, gang leader!"

Lin Zheyu said, bowing slightly.

He understood that Mr. Xu was extending goodwill. Since marriage wasn’t possible, they sought other ways to win him over.
