“What are you looking for? Money on the floor?” Brother Bi curiously followed suit, lifting his foot to check underneath.

With his mouth full, Zhou Ye curiously asked, “Where’s Pei Jinye? Why didn’t I see him come in this morning?”

“He sent me a message this morning, said something went wrong during his cultivation and asked for two days off,” Brother Bi said casually. “I had Old Qiu approve it. I wanted to go check on him, but he wouldn’t let me. It must be pretty bad.”

“Ah? There was a problem with his cultivation—hope he’s okay,” Zhou Ye was taken aback but then said thoughtfully, “He does seem to really like cultivating. From what I remember, if he’s not in the dormitory, he’s at the cultivation ground practicing his punches. But cultivation should be balanced with rest, though.”

Brother Bi laughed and teased, “Mind your own business. He could take on three of you with one punch.”

Zhou Ye scratched his head and laughed, not thinking too much about it or getting upset, “I’m not one for fighting anyway. Oh right, Brother Bi, has the report for the task from the 13th Research Institute been submitted?”

“Nonsense, of course it’s been submitted,” Brother Bi couldn’t help but laugh. “Just be honest, how many tasks are you short of completing?”

“Just the last one,” Zhou Ye said with a flattering smile. “Brother Bi, take me with you on a few more tasks. I feel more assured when I do tasks with you.”

“Cut the crap. Are you trying to boost your task completion rate to compete for the model employee at the end of the year?” Brother Bi smiled.

“Brother Bi is Brother Bi, wise and perceptive,” Zhou Ye flattered. “You know, with that one award, the bonus can go up by 20%. I can only rely on this money to have a good year. I’m not getting any younger, should start looking for a wife. Despite the scary name of the Investigation Team, my salary… it’s a bit awkward.”

Brother Bi smacked his lips.

“I wonder how severe Pei Jinye’s injury is?”

Zhou Ye’s face turned dark, and he hurriedly followed after.

“Bro, were you listening to what I said just now?”

Jiang family estate.

The backyard.

A gentle breeze was brushing by, the willow leaves swaying indifferently by the banks.

This place was situated by the mountains and the water.

It was said that when the Jiang family built this ancestral home, they specially hired a feng shui master, spending a fortune to move mountains and create lakes, even going as far as to buy up the entire area.

It cost them several hundred million to create the terrain as it is today.

In such a luxurious place, even some members of the Jiang family rarely had the chance to admire it up close, while at the moment, Pei Jinye was alone on the back mountain, practicing his cultivation.

Jiang Qingcang himself was a Transcendent with outstanding Vitality, so as long as Pei Jinye merely attempted his powerful moves, it wouldn’t draw any attention.

And he was just cultivating, tempering his body… these minor cultivation affairs usually didn’t catch anyone’s notice.

It’s just that Jiang Qingcang’s significance to the Jiang family was too great.

During the time Pei Jinye was cultivating, some of the mainstays of the Jiang family tried to request an audience but were all stopped by the middle-aged butler at the foot of the mountain.

Especially Jiang Suhu’s second uncle was a bit restless.

Last night, he had just come to report to the old master, and this morning, he heard the news that Jiang Suhu was kneeling outside the door.

He didn’t know what Jiang Suhu had said to the old master, but he feared that he might have angered the old master inadvertently due to Jiang Suhu’s exaggeration, however, to his helplessness, the old master simply wouldn’t see anyone.

He tried to get some information from the butler, but the latter just reassured him, saying that the old master was spurred by a whim to enter seclusion for cultivation.

As time fermented, it seemed that people in the family were beginning to learn that Jiang Qingcang was in secluded cultivation.

Even the main branch had gotten wind of it.

If it were anyone else in the Jiang family, of course, there wouldn’t be so much discussion, but now the topic was on Jiang Qingcang, the spiritual leader of the Jiang family, so naturally, the level of interest was extraordinarily high.

Luckily, Pei Jinye had given prior notice not to disclose anything about the potion order, or else who knows what kind of trouble might come up.

“What is this old guy trying to do?”

“I estimate I don’t have much time left, I want to further improve myself and extend my life.”

“If the second house falls, does that mean we, the main house, will…”

“Be careful with your words! Before that person thoroughly collapses, some things can’t be said!”

“Let’s just wait and see.”

“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”

In a certain area behind the ancestral home.

Merely with a casual flick from “Jiang Qingcang”, within three hours, the workers of the Jiang family had built an exquisitely crafted mansion in this back mountain, embedding a secret chamber for secluded cultivation.

Pei Jinye once again felt the power of a wealthy family.

After everyone had withdrawn, he stayed behind alone.

In front of a tree stump.

Pei Jinye tempered his physical body over and over again.

“Twelve Lotuses” operated at a rapid pace.

With a “puff” sound.

The air near his body seemed to be punctured, and the Blood Lotus that was faintly condensing above his head suddenly expanded, growing several times larger.

Pei Jinye clearly felt the surge of blood energy in his body.

Every bone in his body emitted a vibrating sound, echoing like thunder.

A warm current moved through all his body’s orifices.

Pei Jinye immediately realized that, with the boost from the Jiang family’s massive cultivation resources, his second Blood Lotus was about to condense.

While stimulating “Twelve Lotuses”, Pei Jinye multitasked by also activating the Spring Chapter of the Four Seasons Talisman, his chest undulating in a peculiar arc.

In his clear perception, the medicinal meals he had devoured were being incessantly devoured, digested, and fused by a mysterious force inside his body, massively gathering to nourish and strengthen his whole body.

He even had an illusion.

It was as if the cells in his body came alive, extremely active, absorbing countless blood energy from the medicinal meals, accumulating and storing it until it was fully absorbed, and then immediately triggering the condensation of the second Blood Lotus.

Two Advanced Heart Methods operated simultaneously.

All body orifices maintained an extremely fast frequency of resonance, and the terrifying blood energy burst forth violently, forming a huge Blood Lotus that seemed to transform into a massive furnace, emitting a deep and intimidating roar.

Pei Jinye disregarded everything else.

His cultivation had reached a critical stage, and under no circumstances could it be interrupted.

He had already instructed no one to come and disturb him in this vicinity.

Pei Jinye could not think about anything else.

He threw himself into this final push.

With a relaxed mind.

Pei Jinye unexpectedly discovered that “Big Dream for Thousands of Autumns” had started to operate on its own. He did not interfere with this mysterious state, allowing this comprehensive explosion of improvement.

He felt that, at a certain moment, standing between heaven and earth, it was as if he was in the midst of the vast, boundless universe, an immensity that made one feel small.

However, the “inferiority” and “helplessness” that most people felt when facing such insignificance did not appear in Pei Jinye.

In his heart, there was only one thought—

A single spark can start a prairie fire!

Boom!

His body’s vitality and the surrounding void achieved a certain resonance.

All around, his acupoints vibrated with sound.

A strange feeling emerged from deep within his heart, and Pei Jinye suddenly clenched his fists tight.

Power!

His eyes snapped open, and it seemed as if luster appeared before them.

At this moment.

The sky remained the same, as did the earth.

But Pei Jinye’s body had grown taller!

In the Kui Bull State, his clothes burst apart.

The giant Blood Lotus above his head split into two.

The second Blood Lotus began to take form.

Blood energy surged like a rainbow, all else was illusory… Pei Jinye’s eyes seemed to flash with a crimson blood light.

He suddenly turned his head to look.

Ten meters away, a Black Armor Death Warrior landed swiftly, standing in shock, then suddenly snapping back to reality and hurriedly kneeling on one knee.

The figure of “Jiang Qingcang” disappeared on the spot, as if a breeze brushed past, and he appeared beside the Black Armor Death Warrior, his voice inexplicable, “You saw all that?”

“This subordinate deserves death!” The Black Armor Death Warrior almost pressed his head to the ground.

“What is your talent?”

Suddenly, an inexplicably concerned voice from the Family Head came from above the Black Armor Death Warrior.

He did not think much of it.

Still pressing his head to the ground, he honestly replied, “This subordinate’s Transcendent ability is in Blood Pattern Body Technique.”

“So it was you.”

The Black Armor Death Warrior had not yet reacted.

“Crack!”

A sound of bones breaking filled the air.

Disguised as Jiang Qingcang, Pei Jinye extended his hand and mercilessly Devoured the other’s ability.

Not long after.

The middle-aged butler received a message from Pei Jinye and quickly arrived with others in tow.

Seeing the corpse next to the Family Head, the middle-aged butler’s expression changed slightly, and the group hurriedly knelt on one knee, “We are late to rescue, please punish us, Family Head!”

Continuing to impersonate Jiang Qingcang, Pei Jinye counterblamed, saying indifferently, “Check his background, see who he has been in contact with recently.”

“Yes, Master!” The middle-aged butler quickly had the body on the ground taken away.

After everyone had left.

The middle-aged butler, as was customary, stayed alone by the Family Head’s side, awaiting orders.

“Starting today, double the amount of medicinal meals!”

Hearing the Family Head’s words, the middle-aged butler’s face lit up slightly, “Have you made a breakthrough?”

“I still need to gather more vitality…” Pei Jinye didn’t say much, just instructed, “Continue to buy it secretly, execute without mercy anyone who leaks information.”

He paused.

Then he added, “Also, reserve some potions for mental recovery.”

“Yes, Master.” The middle-aged man responded readily.

After receiving an emotionless wave of the hand from the Family Head, he respectfully withdrew.

For him, as long as the old man could maintain his current state, it was an enormous blessing.

If he does not fall, the Jiang family will not fall!

…

Pei Jinye returned to his residence.

Unbeknownst to him, those maiden girls were already waiting early, ready to bathe and change the Master’s clothes, and one glance revealed that these girls were all just barely eighteen.

“Beast…”

“This old beast!”

On the surface, Pei Jinye sat on the sofa steady as an old dog, ruthlessly waving his hand.

The girls, not daring to even breathe heavily, hastily left the room, their figures visible through the sheer curtains. Pei Jinye glanced at them before averting his gaze.

Muttering to himself.

“I have to admit, the old man’s taste is not bad.”

Arriving at the bathtub, after testing that the medicinal water was nontoxic, he then changed clothes and soaked.

This time, after entering the Second Lotus of “Twelve Lotuses”, he distinctly felt the hardness of his physical body changing.

With the current vitality value.

If he were to use the Technique “Quake”, it would be far more than just a simple doubling in power.

“Teacher Chang, with three Blood Lotuses above his head and Organ Refining already accomplished… knocking him off is as hard as ascending to the heavens.”

Teacher Chang himself was adept in the Body Technique System and was a seasoned warrior after years of practice.

Pei Jinye had taken shortcuts to grow this much in just a single month.

If not for the Proficiency bonus, he wouldn’t have reached his current level of Blood energy Value.

Pei Jinye was increasingly realizing that it seemed only Transcendants of the Body Technique System tended to cultivate in Martial Arts, most others relying too heavily on their own Transcendent abilities.

Undeniable.

For low-rank warriors, if the opponent awakens a talent like Firearms – sniper rifles, they could be assassinated from a distance.

For most who want to continue down the path of martial arts, the cost is not only years of time but also an unpredictable and massive fortune.

Pei Jinye was able to save on the former, but he was fully aware of the enormous gap in the latter.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sought out the Jiang family, his creditor, on a “stroke of inspiration.”

After the bath.

Pei Jinye didn’t hurry to leave the comforting and relaxing medicated bath, lying back in the tub, the custom-made bathtub perfectly fitting his body without any discomfort.

At this moment, Pei Jinye felt the surging of power.

With every surge, his desire to kill Teacher Chang intensified.

He swiped to bring up his attribute panel.

Vitality Value surged to 35 points!

Physical strength surged to 35 points!

Two Blood Lotuses, an astonishing physique.

Today, he could fight again!
