Chu Xisheng thought this result was not bad, all of his bloodline talents had improved by one level.

Though it wasn’t as exaggerated as Chu Yunyun, who had elevated all her talents from the Third Tier to the Fifth Tier at once, Chu Xisheng was quite satisfied.

Especially his Hand of Wind and Lightning Control, which had surprisingly advanced from the Fifth Tier to the Sixth Tier this time.

Moreover, this “Blood Burning Ritual” had granted him benefits equivalent to two hundred thousand Martial Arts Points!

Chu Xisheng moved the virtual screen to a corner and then replied to Lu Luanti in a deliberately calm manner, “The harvest was decent, though it’s not comparable to yours.”

Lu Luanti couldn’t help but chuckle, seeing that the corners of Chu Xisheng’s lips were nearly reaching his ears.

Who is he showing this calm demeanor for?

At this moment, Chu Xisheng’s expression flickered slightly, looking expectantly at Liu Ruoxi behind him, “Ruoxi, how about you?”

Liu Ruoxi closed her eyes, focusing her senses inward.

Having mastered the Chu family’s Blood Selection Technique, she could clearly feel the bloodline power within her.

Moments later, a look of joy appeared on her face, “All my bloodline talents have reached the Fourth Tier.”

Chu Xisheng’s eyebrows lifted slightly, his heart filled with even more joy.

Truly worthy of being half a template of the Dominating Martial King.

The talents Liu Ruoxi possessed were all top-notch.

For her to push all her bloodline talents to the Fourth Tier at the Eighth Rank was indeed remarkable.

Especially with the Fourth Tier Divine Sorrow, Burial Sky, and Blood of Ten Thousand Ages, as long as her opponent couldn’t kill her within three hundred moves, she would undoubtedly exhaust them to death.

After nightfall, the spring rain grew heavier.

The coldness of January weather hadn’t subsided yet.

The icy raindrops chilled people to the bone.

Chu Xisheng adjusted his bamboo hat, “It’s getting late, we should head back, or else we’ll have to climb over the city wall.”

Chu Xisheng didn’t plan to stay at Zhengyang Martial Arts Hall any longer and didn’t expect to return for a short while.

He had already obtained “White Horse is Not a Horse,” completed the “Blood Burning Ritual,” and mastered all the Fifth to Seventh Level content of his cultivation techniques and martial arts.

He needed to return to West Mountain Town to take care of his affairs.

As Chu Xisheng and his party, including Chu Yunyun and Lu Luanti, were leaving, Ye Zhiqiu was watching his back.

“This guy——”

Ye Zhiqiu raised her right hand, looking at her index and middle fingers.

The insides of these two fingers had faint red marks.

These were caused by Chu Xisheng’s saber aura.

Two hours ago, when Chu Xisheng came out of the Library, Ye Zhiqiu tested his sword skill.

She was almost caught off guard and nearly couldn’t defend against Chu Xisheng’s saber.

This guy’s saber illusions affected one’s senses, making it hard to discern between real and fake, illusion and reality, which was truly unpredictable.

Although Ye Zhiqiu had barely managed with her top-tier Heart-to-Heart inspiration talent by the last moment to catch Chu Xisheng’s Rune Cicada Wing Blade, the vigorous force within her fingers was breached by Chu Xisheng’s sword power, wounding her fingers.

Luckily, she covered it up quickly, so she didn’t embarrass herself in front of the students.

“White Horse is Not a Horse——”

Ye Zhiqiu squinted her eyes, whispering softly for a moment, then without hesitation, headed towards the Library.

She went straight to the top floor of the library and found Ye Jingyuan.

“Mr.

Ye, my student said he integrated the core Dao Rhythm of ‘White Horse is Not a Horse’ into his Nourishing Essence Skill?

But I remember only half of ‘White Horse is Not a Horse’ is in the Library.”

This book was renowned, and Ye Zhiqiu had admired it upon taking her position in Xiushui, but she only read half.

Ye Jingyuan raised a white eyebrow, looking unfazed, “I have seen the whole of ‘White Horse is Not a Horse,’ so I transcribed it for him.

Why?”

There was a sharp gleam in Ye Zhiqiu’s eyes, “Did he leave his insights into ‘White Horse is Not a Horse’ in the Library?

With your personality, you must have forced him to leave notes and True Intent diagrams, show them to me.”

Ye Jingyuan couldn’t help but chuckle, “I can show them to you, but wouldn’t it be more convenient to have Chu Xisheng personally demonstrate?

His true form would be more comprehensive than any True Intent diagram.

As his teacher, he won’t refuse.”

Hearing this, Ye Zhiqiu snorted, her gaze inscrutable, “Just show them, why do you care so much?”

Truly, to seek guidance from Chu Xisheng would diminish her dignity as a teacher.

The next morning, almost all the landlords in West Mountain Town with estates over three thousand acres received invitations from Chu Xisheng, inviting them to gather at the newly opened Mountain and River Tower in West Mountain Town at 7 a.m.

for drinks and discussions.

Mountain and River Tower was right beside the Chu Mansion, and had become famous for its delicious dishes and quality drinks since its opening before the Lantern Festival, drawing in crowds of guests.

However, when Chu Xisheng entered Mountain and River Tower at 7 a.m., the usually packed establishment was practically empty.

It wasn’t until close to noon that guests gradually arrived as invited.

West Mountain Town’s largest landlord, Wen Tiance, only arrived around 11:30 AM.
