Chapter 121: Chapter 109 Visit

In the academy, deep within the Hall of Duties.

As a senior elder of the Hall of Duties, Chang Weibao was in charge of managing the logistical affairs of most disciples in the academy. He could even decide the monthly offerings for certain officials, holding a high position and great influence.

Though over forty, his martial arts cultivation was profound, reaching the sixth rank of Condensing Yuan, with deep and bright old eyes and an intense aura of authority.

"The Pei family is making moves everywhere now. The Hall of Duties has always been the private realm of the Hong family, and they want to intervene." Chang Weibao sneered.

"Kong Yingmo wants to use his disciple’s promotion to the third rank to replace Wang Tianshu in the financial affairs position." Chang Weibao sipped his tea, pondering: "I must devise a strategy; how could I let him have his way?"

"Elder, an urgent message from the family head." At this time, a trusted official entered, placing a sealed secret letter on his tea table.

"What is it about?"

Chang Weibao put down the teacup and asked softly.

"It’s about the Huai River Pier; there’s been an incident there, and it’s beyond Ao Daguang’s control now," the official replied without hesitation, in a low voice.

"Hmm." Chang Weibao nodded, opened the letter, and read it carefully.

After about three breaths, Chang Weibao put down the letter.

The letter was concise, requesting him to make time to oversee the Huai River Pier. Since Ao Daguang was deployed by him, now unable to handle the situation, he needed to personally deal with the aftermath.

Chang Wei pondered for a moment, his eyes brightening.

"Ling Kang has just been promoted to the third rank; he probably can’t suppress Kong Yingmo’s disciple. It would be better to take this opportunity to replace Ling Kang with Ao Daguang, letting Ao Daguang fight it out with his disciple."

"Wang Tianshu can sit in Ling Kang’s position." Chang Weibao thought of this and couldn’t help but laugh: "In this way, the three can rotate, resolving their dilemma."

"Summon Ling Kang." Chang Weibao immediately ordered.

Soon, a man with cold, sharp eyes and a hook nose walked in.

"Elder, Ling Kang reporting." Ling Kang respectfully clasped his hands.

"You are to visit Huai River Pier immediately, cooperate with Ao Daguang in investigating the Feiyun Gang. I will personally come after handling my current duties." Chang Weibao nodded and instructed.

"Yes." A peculiar look flashed in Ling Kang’s eyes as he replied.

Ao Daguang had some grievances with him years ago, but at that time, he had only just advanced to Condensing Yuan, and Ao Daguang didn’t take him seriously.

Now he had been promoted to the third rank of Condensing Yuan, and at a young age, he had great hope of breaking through to the fourth rank.

After mulling over it for a while, Ling Kang thought to himself: "Though it’s cooperation, I cannot lose my momentum."

***********

The next morning.

"Master, Master." Xiaoyun hurriedly ran over, flustered.

"What is it?" Lin Yuan retracted the Yuan Qi circulating within him and frowned.

"When I opened the door just now, there was a strange person kneeling at the entrance, which startled me." Xiaoyun patted her tender chest and said: "When he saw me open the door, he kept mumbling things like ’please forgive me, Xiaoyun.’ Is he mentally ill?"

"Just one person?" Lin Yuan snorted inwardly.

It seems some people truly disregard him, Lin. They let words in one ear and out the other.

Lin Yuan suppressed his inner emotions and smiled faintly: "Didn’t I say a couple of days ago that they should come and apologize to you? Go and see if it’s the person who threatened you."

"It is." Xiaoyun’s eyes widened, feeling vindicated: "Those two were so fierce that day."

"Thank you, Master, for standing up for me." Xiaoyun’s face blushed as she bowed to Lin Yuan.

"Haha! You little fool." Lin Yuan reached out and gently flicked her forehead.

"Ouch." Xiaoyun winced, rubbing her forehead, complaining: "Master, you’re always bullying me."

After a moment of bewilderment, Xiaoyun seemed to remember something and pitifully said: "The weather is so cold, it’s about to snow, and he’s kneeling out there on the hard, cold ground. Won’t he catch a chill?"

"Do as you see fit. After all, they were fierce to you." Lin Yuan clasped his hands behind him, striding towards the pavilion.

Now he had entered a state of nothingness, spending more time comprehending the world and various moods, which greatly aided his martial arts improvement.

Entering the pavilion, Xiaoyun had already laid out a cushion for him and prepared hot tea.

Lin Yuan sat down and quietly pondered his current state.

Now his Sunrise Technique had been mastered, allowing him to refine his Yuan Qi. What he needed now was to continue consuming Five Qi Pills, steadily increasing his Yuan Qi.

"The basic entry into Condensing Yuan is nearly complete; I’m about to step into the first rank of Condensing Yuan." Lin Yuan mused to himself: "Although the Demon Hub state erupts, it consumes a lot of Yuan Qi and can only be maintained for an hour, not for long durations."

"And that mysterious elder, after all, injured me that day."

Lin Yuan carefully examined his fingernail, finding a small nick from the elder’s powerful move that broke through his defenses.

"The mysterious elder may be dead, but there is still the presence of the West Sea Alliance behind, with unknown old monsters."

"If they can break through my defenses, they have a chance to injure or even kill me. My strength is indeed too weak, still needing to improve continually." This thought silently flickered in Lin Yuan’s mind.

"Master, a senior brother has come seeking you, he calls himself Xie Wanxin." Xiaoyun’s voice came from afar.

"Please invite Senior Brother Xie in." Lin Yuan’s thoughts were interrupted, and upon hearing Xie Wanxin’s name, he immediately stood to greet him.

"Hahaha, Junior Brother Lin, unexpectedly, you’ve quietly broken through the elite disciple threshold." Xie Wanxin lightly tapped Lin Yuan on the shoulder upon seeing him.

"Senior brother, I wanted to tell you, but I couldn’t find you." Lin Yuan laughed.

"Please sit, senior brother; it’s cold, have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself." He led Xie Wanxin to sit and poured him a steaming cup of hot tea.

"I accompanied the inner gate officials to Baiyan City recently, which took much effort." Xie Wanxin smiled, drinking the steaming tea, feeling warmer.

"I returned to hear you’ve become an elite disciple and even killed An Heng." Xie Wanxin placed the teacup down, staring at Lin Yuan: "I didn’t expect your skills to progress so quickly, probably surpassing me."

"Senior brother, what are you saying? No matter how skilled I am." Lin Yuan modestly replied: "I dare not act against your guidance."

"Hahaha." Xie Wanxin laughed heartily: "Truly my good brother."

"Now that you’ve become an elite disciple, I happen to have news for you." Xie Wanxin leaned closer, whispering: "The Martial Academy of Baiyan City is coming to our academy to select disciples. The academy is likely to hold an elite disciple tournament, where the outstanding can enter the Martial Academy."

"Martial Academy?" Lin Yuan frowned.

He wasn’t particularly interested in Martial Academy matters. All he wanted was to improve his strength, enjoying a peaceful and stable life, with a warm family, a wife, and children, wasn’t it comfortable?

Why go to the Martial Academy to suffer?

"The Martial Academy has better Condensing Yuan Techniques, with opportunities to break through to levels beyond Condensing Yuan." Seeing Lin Yuan’s confusion, Xie Wanxin hurriedly explained.

"How long will it take?" Lin Yuan’s interest piqued slightly.

Even though he had just stepped into Condensing Yuan, breaking through to levels beyond seemed distant, but enhancing his strength was feasible.

"It’s still unclear, but it could be as soon as half a year or as late as a year. There’s time to prepare." Xie Wanxin’s eyes sparkled with hope.

"I’ll do my best." Lin Yuan nodded.

He wasn’t very interested in the Martial Academy matters, only a bit curious about the breakthrough to levels beyond Condensing Yuan.

The immediate priority was to steadily increase Yuan Qi accumulation.

"You must give it your all." Xie Wanxin said seriously: "Such an opportunity must be seized well."

Lin Yuan smiled and said nothing more.

After saying this, Xie Wanxin’s face grew serious.

"Junior brother, the Huai River Pier is fraught with danger now." Xie Wanxin looked grave: "You know about yesterday’s event. An unknown expert is hiding in the shadows, and I’m afraid for your safety."

"I hurried here, wanting to discuss with you."

"Feel free to speak, senior brother." Lin Yuan looked solemn.

"I heard you’re still asking You Xiaozhong to sell Qi-Blood powder?" Xie Wanxin changed the topic: "Can you refine it?"

"Yes."

"Good, good, good." Xie Wanxin nodded repeatedly: "The Pei family is currently recruiting pill masters everywhere; I’ll take this chance to introduce you to Zhu Luohong, Master Zhu."

"Pill Master Zhu can refine intermediate-grade Five Qi Pills, only he’s somewhat eccentric."

"You need to endure a bit following a pill master. It’s a good way to avoid the pier trouble." Xie Wanxin spoke with concern.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan felt deeply moved. Senior Brother Xie was genuinely a good person.

Lin Yuan looked serious, pondering for a moment, preparing to reveal that he had already learned alchemy.

Xie Wanxin cut him off: "Junior brother, killing An Heng is no small matter; the Pei family is indeed behind protecting you."

Lin Yuan nodded knowingly at Xie Wanxin’s words.

He attempted once more to express his readiness to undertake the pill master assessment.

But Xie Wanxin spoke rapidly, continuing: "You know my position as well, without elder brother holding the power of Pei family oversight, your deployment is beyond my capabilities. Hence, I could only secure a position for you as a pill master attendant."

Xie Wanxin looked helpless, fearing Lin Yuan’s pride might refuse.

"Senior brother." Lin Yuan smiled wryly: "Actually."

"Listen to my arrangement, junior brother, or your life might be at risk." Xie Wanxin’s expression was stern, his tone solemn.

"Senior brother, I want to say I can refine Five Qi Pills." Lin Yuan said firmly: "Intermediate-grade Five Qi Pills."

Upon hearing this, Xie Wanxin’s eyes widened like copper bells.
