Chapter 58: Identity II

by karlmaks — "Data collection is sufficient. We can end this." "Then I'll go clean up the traces." "Be cautious." "Don't worry." One of them responded, took a step forward, and suddenly dissolved silently into a pool of gray liquid, flying toward the figures still fighting inside the temple. Getting close, the liquid rapidly dispersed into countless sand-like gray insects, densely pouncing on the Black Winged Tiger and the three Internal Force Realm martial artists. Accompanied by a few terrified…

Chapter 37: Evaluation I

by karlmaks — Rear courtyard of the Taoist temple, on the training ground. Lin Hui held the Clear River sword, calmly and steadily practicing the Nine-Section Quick Sword. To apply it in real combat, he had to make it perfectly compatible with his own physical state. It wasn't enough for the moves to be perfectly executed; he also needed to clarify the timing, rhythm, and other aspects of using the sword techniques. He had already completed his daily Body Tempering with the Seven-Section Quick Sword. The next…

Chapter 16: Body Tempering II

by karlmaks — Lin Shunhe nodded and assented repeatedly. After seeing off Xu Dao and his two men, he closed and locked the door. Turning around, he saw his wife standing by the inner room door, wearing a coat and watching him. “A He...” Yao Shan called out worriedly. “It's alright. I've got this. You go back to sleep,” Lin Shunhe waved his hand, speaking calmly. With his previous connections, Xu Dao's attitude was relatively gentle, and everything was handled according to the rules. This was good. He…

Chapter 48: Thoughts IV

by karlmaks — The "loose cultivation inheritance" model basically involved a master leading five or six disciples. This model didn't generate large-scale profits and had low resource demands, so it posed no threat to the martial arts hall system. Consequently, it was no longer targeted by the martial arts halls from Xingdao. Since it wasn't a proper martial arts hall anymore, Mingde no longer relied on tuition as his main income. When he ran out of money, he would go to Wang Yun's Wang family to work part-time as a…

Chapter 27: Incident III

by karlmaks — Scraps of snow drifted down. On the four-sided martial arts platform, thick layers of brown beast hide were laid down, and coarse black ropes formed railings around the four sides. “The twenty-four front courtyard disciples will remain for observation and will duel starting from the lowest rank. Those who win five consecutive matches will receive a special prize from the Abbot!” The female Taoist child from before, carrying a copper gong, struck it once and began reading the simple competition…

Chapter 59: Identity III

by karlmaks — With his internal force breakthrough and sword speed significantly increased, Lin Hui didn't waste time. Since he had come all this way, he simply hunted two more Tree Scorpions. This time, he didn't kill them completely but just severed their tails to take back. Firstly, because the scorpion tail had a weakness that made it easier to cut off; secondly, killing them completely would damage the Clear River sword too much. Although he wasn't short of money now with his father's support and the booming…

Chapter 38: Evaluation II

by karlmaks — Watching Vivi leave, Lin Hui’s expression was blank. He put away the letter paper and returned to his room. He hadn't lied just now. His parents' business was thriving. His father was truly skilled at business; their earnings were much higher than before, and they had even opened a branch store. As for him, although the reputation of the Clear Wind Taoist Temple had plummeted, he, Lin Hui, was still alive, and his martial prowess remained. He might not be able to beat the Black Dragon Gate, but…

Chapter 17: Body Tempering III

by karlmaks — Xinyu Town. Under the dim, yellow sky, a fine rain drizzled down. The yellow mud on the road was trodden into a disgusting sludge. Ox-carts and horse-drawn carriages passed by occasionally, splashing mud. The pedestrians on the road mostly wore bamboo hats and raincoats, their steps hurried. Squeak. Lin Hui pushed open his courtyard gate, seeing the inside empty and quiet. A newly planted apricot tree in the courtyard slightly trembled its branches and leaves in the light…

Chapter 49: Dangerous Situation I

by karlmaks — Because his movement speed had improved, Lin Hui now went home to rest almost every day. After all, it only took half an hour to get back from the Clear Wind Sword Sect, and the run served as training for his movement technique. After finishing sword practice, it was approaching evening. As usual, he quickly returned to the suburbs of Xinyu Town. However, as soon as he arrived at his gate, he found the courtyard doors wide open and the inside completely empty. Only a few sturdy men were sitting on…

Chapter 28: Incident IV

by karlmaks — Buzz. Seeing the winner decided, everyone in the viewing stands buzzed with excitement. Everyone had seen people win, but no one had ever seen someone win like this before. Lin Hui stood on the stage, watching the surrounding audience, whose commotion was clearly caused by his victory. Even the Ming Generation Masters and Daoist Baohe in the main area were discussing something with each other. ‘It seems I overdid it a little. But it doesn't matter. Soon, everyone will see that I'm about as…
