Chapter 590: Chapter 3: Fourth Grade in Sight, Leaving the City!_2

"I really can’t drink anymore!"

He grabbed the wine cup from Lin Qingyi’s hand and pressed it down onto the table.

Lin Qingyi looked up and immediately saw Jiang Ning’s serious gaze.

"Fine! I won’t drink anymore!" Lin Qingyi mumbled, then stood up.

The next moment.

Her body went limp, and she fell to the side.

Jiang Ning quickly reached out to catch her, looking at the intoxicated Lin Qingyi, he shook his head: "Alright, I’ll help you back to rest!"

"Hehe, sorry to trouble you!"

Lin Qingyi leaned softly against Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning extended his hand around Lin Qingyi’s shoulders, immediately feeling uneasy.

Because Lin Qingyi was still wearing the same ruqun she wore earlier, a ruqun that revealed her shoulders and arms.

His palm moved down, holding Lin Qingyi’s waist, and he immediately felt even more uneasy!

His hand instantly moved away from Lin Qingyi’s body.

"Rub my waist, help me lie down, I’m a bit dizzy!"

As Lin Qingyi spoke, Jiang Ning immediately felt her cold palm fall on the back of his hand, grabbing his hand and placing it on her waist.

At this moment, Lin Qingyi’s soft body was leaning against Jiang Ning, her face flushed.

Seeing this.

Jiang Ning didn’t mind anymore.

He helped Lin Qingyi to her room and laid her on the bed.

Thud——

With a thudding sound, Lin Qingyi immediately collapsed onto the bed, her eyes slightly closed.

Even as Lin Qingyi lay flat on the bed, her majestic form was still visible.

Jiang Ning shook his head, lifted Lin Qingyi’s legs onto the bed, covered her with the blanket, and then turned and left.

Squeak——

As the door closed, Lin Qingyi, lying on the bed, suddenly opened her eyes.

She looked toward the door, speechless.

She had given such an opportunity, yet Jiang Ning didn’t even touch her!

This made her doubt her own charm.

Then Lin Qingyi lowered her head and untied the sash of the dress on her chest.

"No problem!" She murmured.

From Jiang Ning’s unintentional glances usually, she had long noticed the great attraction her figure held for Jiang Ning.

On the other hand.

Jiang Ning came down from upstairs and walked out the door of Wanhua Building.

The opportunity that Lin Qingyi gave him just now, he understood it well.

But he didn’t dare.

After these days of interaction, he knew that Lin Qingyi carried great secrets and big troubles.

He was merely at the Fifth Grade level, how could he dare to involve himself in Lin Qingyi’s big troubles.

As everyone knew, Lin Qingyi had now stepped into the Grandmaster realm.

Even the weakest Human Dao Grandmaster among grandmasters was still a real grandmaster.

...

At the gate of Luoshui County.

A woman wearing a white veil cloak and a blue long gown stood at the gate of Luoshui City.

Looking at the big characters "Luoshui City" on the city wall.

A smile appeared on the woman’s face hidden under the cloak.

"Luoshui City, this is it!"

If Xiao Emei were here, she would recognize this woman as Yu Manyun.

A strong contender for the position of the next Palace Master under her in the Water Moon Sword Palace.

She had not done well, failing to complete the task Xiao Qiushui had arranged for her to invite Jiang Ning to the Water Moon Sword Palace as a guest, so Yu Manyun took on the task herself.

The reason was obvious.

Now that Yu Manyun appeared at the gate of Luoshui City, her aim was directed at Jiang Ning.

Yu Manyun then lifted her legs and walked toward the gate of Luoshui County.

A moment later.

She arrived at the gate, standing at the back of a small line of people waiting to enter the city.

Just then.

Clip-clop——

The sound of horse hooves.

And the sound of wheels rolling appeared in her ears.

In just a moment.

Two carriages leisurely emerged from the main gate of the city wall.

Yu Manyun couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

Because leading the two carriages, were two Snow Red Flame Colts.

Snow Red Flame Colts are a kind of fine horse that even in Dongling County would not be considered inferior.

Moreover, these two Snow Red Flame Colts gave her a powerful and strong feeling, far stronger than the average Snow Red Flame Colt.

Like the difference between an ordinary wolf and a wolf king among a pack of wolves.

After taking a couple of glances, Yu Manyun withdrew her gaze.

Because it was her turn to enter the city in the line.

Knowing her purpose here, she hurriedly entered the city.

In the carriage.

Lv Yi knelt barefoot on the floor, slowly lighting incense.

On the table was a vat of water, in which was a gold and red Dragon Carp.

The Dragon Carp was quietly floating in the vat, snoring in sleep.

Jiang Ning sat in the carriage, quietly reading a book.

The skill of reading and writing, he needed to continue improving.

He also needed to consider breaking through Fifth Grade to step into Fourth Grade.

In the Fifth Grade level, he unknowingly had progressed far.

With nearly two Jiazi of power on him, not to mention at Fifth Grade level, even among grandmasters, it was no inferior feat.

After all, a grandmaster’s lifespan was but two Jiazi.

Starting from the womb to practice, normally, it would be but two Jiazi of power.

However, those who achieve grandmastership cannot be judged by normal standards, their talent and brilliance are the pinnacle of their time.

It’s not unusual for one year to accumulate several years of power.

But even so, even a prodigy who reached Fifth Grade at twenty-five.

It would take decades of spring and autumn to accumulate two Jiazi of power, by then already aged.

Even stepping into the Grandmaster realm, it would be hard to maintain the peak state.

So Jiang Ning knew, his accumulation of inner breath had reached an incredible level.

Every time he thought of this, he felt he had underestimated the Thunder Fruit, such a miraculous treasure of the world.

This kind of treasure is beyond comparison to ordinary Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Just a hundred-year-old Thunder Fruit had increased his power by more than one Jiazi.

Thinking back now, he still found it unbelievable.

And it was those few Thunder Fruits that had completed his inner breath quantity accumulation.

As for the qualitative transformation, it wasn’t far off.

If all went smoothly, in clear weather, within ten days, his Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill would achieve great success.

At that time, his inner breath would smoothly transform, reaching the level of Five Internal Organs Thunder Sound, Inner Breath Like Gang.

The combination of Inner Breath Like Gang with two Jiazi of power, at the Fifth Grade level, already made him a peak expert.

The Valley Master Lu Qingshan of the Medicine King Valley, renowned throughout Dongling County, was also merely at this level, the Peak of Fifth Grade.

Strictly speaking, thirty years of power with inner breath like a sea, once inner breath transformation was complete and condensed into gang, could be called the Peak of Fifth Grade.

As for those who went even further, with inner breath like an abyss reaching one Jiazi of power, they were legendary figures among them.

One Breath to Slash Thousands of Army was the kind of legendary achievement such martial artists created.

Let alone someone like him, wielding a power of two Jiazi.

Therefore, Jiang Ning understood, at the Fifth Grade level, he was only one step away.

As long as his inner breath transformed, his accumulation at the Fifth Grade level had little necessity to linger.

Breaking through to Fourth Grade, then stepping into the Grandmaster realm, was his pursuit now.

Only by reaching such a level could he have a view of the entire world.

Otherwise, like now, although his strength was considerable, he still remained in an awkward position unable to fully ascend or descend.

As for the miraculous characteristic within him, he dared not use it heedlessly.

Because that power was too extraordinary, once exposed, who knew what disaster it might bring?

The mysterious blessing of Lord of Rivers would not be revealed unless it was a matter of life and death.

For now, it could only serve as his trump card.

Sitting in the carriage, inhaling the invigorating incense, Jiang Ning continued to read the book in his hand.

After making up his mind, his subsequent time would be entirely dedicated to improving the skill of reading and writing.

It just so happened that traveling to Dongling City would take several days, and this process couldn’t be rushed.

Traveling with the whole family, there were many things to bring along.

Without the aid of a carriage, relying on just his hands wouldn’t be enough.

He also intended to take advantage of this time to peruse books, increasing the experience value of reading and writing.

The further along the martial arts path, the greater the importance of spiritual power!
