Chapter 140

Upon Shi’er’s entry into the world of Martial Arts and his breakthrough into the Qi-Blood Realm, Xu Yan’s face was painted with shock. Why so weak?

The thunderous rumble of his muscles and bones was much less impressive than when Xu Yan was at that stage.

His Qi and blood resembled the weak force of a Milky Way.

Meng Chong held the same opinion.

However, Su Lingxiu was awe-stricken. This was true power, the resonating roar of muscles and bones, the Qi and blood like a Milky Way – truly extraordinary. It looked as if it packed a punch.

Compared to the Inner Realm Martial Arts, it felt much more powerful.

After Shi’er’s breakthrough, Li Xuan saw a golden light emerge.

“Your servant, Shi’er, has started practicing the Martial Arts you invented, and your True Qi has had a slight enhancement.”

The information provided by Golden Finger referred to the Martial Arts as ones that he had created. As expected, the feedback gained from someone practicing an established cultivation technique was very minimal.

And yet, Shier was his servant.

If it were a stranger, unrelated to him, not a single feedback would have come from them.

“True Qi really only increased by a little.”

Li Xuan felt helpless; as his golden finger feedback truly only inflated his True Qi slightly, not even nearly by ten percent.

“So, only when my disciples practice the cultivation technique I created, would I get substantial feedback.”

“Though the feedback received from others practicing established techniques is minimal, if the quantity is large enough, I should reap some gains.”

However, Li Xuan knew his core focus should still be on his disciples.

Only through their continuous cultivation and advancement, could his true power source be established.

“Shi’er has reached the beginning stages of Copper Bone. This strength, seems about right.”

Li Xuan took a quick glance, Shi’er’s initial strength was not much different from his initial assessment.

After Shi’er settled his Qi-blood, he was thrilled to the core, and falling onto his knees, he knocked his head on the ground towards Li Xuan, thanking him, “Thank you, master, for teaching me Martial Arts!”

Then, turning towards Su Lingxiu, he thanked her, “Thank you, Heavenly Mother, for granting me the pill!”

“Hmm!”

Su Lingxiu nodded.

“Junior Sister, are you the Heavenly Mother?”

Xu Yan looked surprised.

The peerless beauty, whom Kou Ruozhi had described as a heavenly fairy, was his junior sister?

However, Kou Ruozhi certainly didn’t lie.

Junior sister truly boasted incomparable beauty amongst mortals.

“Yes, why?”

Su Lingxiu shot her confused gaze at her senior brother.

Xu Yan’s eyes held a peculiar look.

“When Kou Ruozhi first told me…”

Xu Yan didn’t hide anything, revealing all that Kou Ruozhi had initially said.

On hearing this, Su Lingxiu was furious. To think Kou Ruozhi wanted to use her to curry favour with Xu Yan, apparently without the slightest regard for her status as Heavenly Mother!

How outrageous!

“Kou Ruozhi has grown too audacious; I want to bury him!”

Xu Yan nodded, saying, “I always suspected him of being a sly person!”

Su Lingxiu turned towards Shi’er and said, “Shi’er, you go and capture Kou Ruozhi!”

“Yes, Heavenly Mother!”

Shi’er immediately nodded in agreement.

“Stop calling me Heavenly Mother!”

Su Lingxiu glared at him.

“Yes.”

Shi’er nodded.

Having just broken through the Qi-blood Realm and becoming a real Martial Artist stirred great excitement in him. He quickly set off immediately to Dong River County in pursuit of Kou Ruozhi.

After instructing Shi’er, Su Lingxiu recommenced her Alchemy.

The second pot of medicine still hadn’t succeeded, but there was progress.

After two Alchemy attempts, Su Lingxiu was directly tired and needed to rest to digest her Alchemy experience and perfect her Alchemy method.

Returning to her boudoir, she flopped onto the bed.

“Miss.”

Zhou Ying carried a basin of water in, ready to wash Su Lingxiu’s face.

“Aunt Zhou, once I successfully refine the pill, and you have entered into Martial Arts, you could change your cultivation to Martial Arts. With my pill, you will surely be successful.”

Su Lingxiu said.

“Okay, I will listen to you.”

Zhou Ying nodded.

Then she looked upset, saying, “Miss, this rash return to the Inner Domain has attracted a Great Grandmaster. Our whereabouts may have been exposed.”

Su Lingxiu shook her head, saying, “It may not be necessarily exposed. Great Grandmasters are prideful and they could capture you and me easily. He probably discovered your whereabouts and followed you here, but others might not know. He has been crushed to death by my Master, and even his ashes weren’t left behind. Nobody should know that we are in the Border Wastelands.”

Zhou Ying was still a little worried and said, “1 hope you’re right.”

Su Lingxiu said with a smile, “What are you afraid of? We have Master.”

Zhou Ying thought about it again. Of course, that senior had an unfathomable aura.

Outside of their manor, on a small hill.

Meng Chong sat cross-legged, holding onto his knife, continuing to nurse it, and intermittently practicing The Great Sun Golden Body.

Li Xuan leisurely walked along the small hill path, with Xu Yan respectfully tailing behind.

Because of Su Lingxiu, a Great Grandmaster had attacked, and even though he had been instantly crushed to death, Li Xuan wasn’t negligent.

It’s true that the Great Grandmasters are prideful and would not hesitate to strike as soon as they discovered their prey. As soon as he found Zhou Ying, he came straight for her, likely not communicating with other people, and thus the likelihood of Su Lingxiu’s whereabouts being compromised is low.

But he still needed to be prepared for any eventuality.

He wasn’t afraid of Great Grandmasters, his real fear was if someone stronger than a Great Grandmaster showed up.

Of course, based on the current information, the Inner Domain doesn’t have any Martial Artists stronger than a Great Grandmaster, if there are, they must be old veterans hiding themselves.

Xu Yan had already reached the minor achievement stage of the Innate Realm, it’s time to teach him the martial art techniques beyond the Innate Realm.

Li Xuan stopped.

“Disciple.”

“Master!”

Xu Yan declared sincerely.

He was a little excited inside, his Master was about to lecture him on the martial art techniques beyond the Innate Realm.

“Yesterday, when you fought against the Great Grandmaster, what did you learn?”

Li Xuan asked.

Upon pondering, Xu Yan replied, “Great Grandmaster Virtuoso was really strong. His Inner Qi was much more robust than a Grandmaster, it felt like comparing a stream to a river.” And what’s more, I felt like the Great Grandmaster issued a kind of omnipotent aura, like the majesty from heaven..”
