Chapter 159: Chapter 135: Half Ancient Martial Arts Development (1st update)
"Mrs. Cox, we are now charging you with obstruction of justice and detaining you for up to 15 days."
The policeman’s voice was like a pair of giant scissors that cut off Harper Cox’s frenzied actions.
She was afraid of going to jail.
The police printed another document for Yvette Foster to sign.
"Miss Foster, if you need a psychologist for your daughter, our police department can provide one at any time."
Yvette Foster was extremely grateful, "Thank you, officer! If it wasn’t for you guys, I wouldn’t have known that something like this had happened to my daughter! I am so grateful!"
"It’s our duty!"
*
Outside the police station.
"Yvette Foster," Harper Cox followed her out, "tell us what you want, and the Williams Family can give it to you."
Yvette Foster suddenly turned around and stared at Harper Cox, her eyes cold for an instant, "I just want my daughter to be safe, and you want her life. It is already very merciful not to have you all arrested."
Harper Cox was frightened and took a step back.
Kate Williams clenched her fists.

Yvette Foster felt that something was wrong with herself.
Upon returning home, she hurriedly drank several glasses of cold water to calm her inner rage.
Chloe Stephens went back to her refining medicine area.
It wasn’t until the next day that she came out of the Divinity Temple.
"You’re out!"
Henry Basil, like a loyal butler, put on a cloak for Chloe.
The morning dew in the Divinity Temple was heavy.
"Come with me to get some medicinal materials."
"Yes."
*
The broken shop.
Today, only Old Lynch was there.
Old Lynch was surprised to see Chloe come with a foreigner.
With deep, pronounced features, Old Lynch thought the man looked like a nobleman from some past century.
"This is Old Lynch."
"Hello, Old Lynch."
Old Lynch: "..."
"These are the medicinal materials I need," Chloe pointed at Henry Basil, "from now on, he will come to get the materials."
She wouldn’t waste time coming here herself.
Old Lynch was a bit upset, but as Chloe was his lifesaver, he had nothing to say and could only nod.
"Is Sheffield City’s underground passage still in the same place?"
"Underground passage?"
Old Lynch looked puzzled.
"You should be an ancient martial artist and only do business with ancient martial artists. Don’t you know about the underground passage?"
Old Lynch’s mouth twitched, and glancing left and right, he lowered his voice and became more serious, "You mean the ’Divine Realm’?"
Chloe: "You call that place the Divine Realm?"
Clearly disdainful.
Old Lynch’s mouth also twitched, "You call such a sacred place a passage?"
"I thought the ones standing in the sky were called the Divine Realm, and the underground as the residence."
"Actually, that place is not really called the ’Divine Realm’, it’s just a joking name, and it’s usually called Dark City."
That sounds a bit more decent.
Knowing that it’s still in the same place, Chloe didn’t ask further.
As they walked away, Old Lynch reacted.
"How do you know about that place..."
Chloe’s figure had already disappeared.
Dark City is essentially an underground trading city for ancient martial artists, with various messages and transactions carried out in the underground world.
The Dark City doesn’t only exist underground; it actually refers to a hidden entrance and the behind-the-scenes dealings.
It’s like the interconnected networks of today!
People from the Dark City can also be seen in the open.
And it is controlled by a mysterious force, whose identity remains unknown, whether it is an individual or a group of people.
In any case, they are very mysterious.
If someone were to leak information or use ancient martial arts abilities to harm ordinary people, this mysterious force would appear.
It’s somewhat like the Slaughter Squad.
Only that the Slaughter Squad operates in plain sight, dealing with supernatural events, while also remaining hidden from the general public.
Much more difficult than working in secret.

"You’re going to Dark City?"
Henry Basil was curious about Herta Kingdom’s Dark City.
"If needed, I’ll take a look. You go back to River East Village first; I’ll leave for a while."
Chloe said this and went to the other side.
Henry Basil stood there, respectfully bowing as he watched her leave.
Villa district gate.
Chloe had just walked past the bus stop, and now she was able to gradually blend in with ordinary people in this world.
Acting like an ordinary person was second nature to her.
"Chloe."
Kate Williams suddenly jumped out from the gate, blocking Chloe’s path.
"I know it was you who called the police. How could you do that? It was because of our Williams Family that you and your mother got to live in this grand villa. Now you’ve turned your back on us and even got my dad involved. Chloe, how can you be so ungrateful?"
Kate’s voice was not low, and everyone coming and going, as well as the vehicles and people, could hear her.
Everyone who could live in this villa district was wealthy in the county town.
Their gazes swept over Chloe and Kate. Such matters were common in wealthy families.
Chloe looked at her as if she was crazy.
"Chloe, you have to go to the police station with me today to clarify things and release my dad. You’re fine, right? And you got those people involved as well. What else do you want?"
Kate reached out to grab her, but she missed.
Chloe avoided her and looked at her coldly.
"I can tolerate you ruining my future, but not my home. Let’s go, follow me to explain things."
She was afraid that without the protection of the Williams Family, she wouldn’t even be able to enter vocational school.
Even her daily life would be difficult.
Without those comfortable days, her relationship with Oliver Gordon would be over.
Because the Williams Family was the hospital’s supplier of medicine, and Oliver’s father was a doctor there, the two families had dealings with each other.
If there was no such support, there would be no possibility between them.
As the increasingly frightened Kate struggled to hold onto Chloe, she became more desperate.
Chloe sidestepped and went inside.
The security guard blocked Kate.
Kate screamed hysterically.
"Chloe, you ungrateful! You’ve taken our Williams Family money, bought the villa, and turned your back on us..."
The security guard pushed her out and dialed the police.
*
Entering the villa, Chloe saw Yvette Foster sitting in the living room in a daze.
She walked over in a few steps.
Checking Yvette’s pulse, she took her hand.
Yvette came to her senses, "Chloe!"
Chloe let go and took the other hand, "It’s taking effect."
"What’s taking effect?"
"Body modification."
Yvette was at a loss for words.
"Did you practice with the book I gave you?"
"Chloe, what’s going on? Mom feels an agitated mixture of cold and hot air running through her body. It’s a bit suffocating."
She wanted to find a place to vent.
However, she dared not.
There was a strange feeling.
If she did that, something would be exposed.
"I’ll adjust it for you," Chloe pressed her acupoints and transferred her inner power, then circulated it.
Yvette felt the restless energy in her body slowly disperse, as if it had merged into her bones and disappeared.
Chloe thought Yvette’s pulse was suitable for practicing some simple basics.
Everyone’s constitution was different, and not everyone could become a real ancient martial artist.
Those who developed later would at most be a strong person with unleashed potential.
For people like Amelia Taylor, the shallow strength they cultivated in their bodies was just a manifestation of their potential being unleashed.
There were very few people who could truly practice ancient martial arts.
Reaching the realm of ancient martial arts, their lifespan would increase, and those who lived for one hundred years were considered half-ancient martial artists.
Nowadays, most people practiced only half of the ancient martial arts.
They couldn’t master it.
But as ancient martial artists, they weren’t wrong.
It’s just that they had never seen a real strong person.
"This is a cultivation method. I think my father must have told you about the ancient martial arts."
Yvette’s eyes widened, "Chloe, are you saying that I can practice this now?"
"You can barely learn the basics. The development of ordinary people depends on their constitution. For someone like you, this is as far as you can go. If you go further, your body will explode."
So ordinary people who develop will also check their physical condition.
Yvette suddenly felt as if her world had become magical!
How did Chloe know?
No, wait!
This wouldn’t be her daughter’s brain acting up, would it?
