Chapter 117: Chapter 117 So, I misunderstood him?

The night deepened!

Jiangbei.

Lin Mansion!

"Ruoxi, how do you feel your body is recovering?" Lin Songbai looked at Lin Ruoxi, curled up on the sofa and somewhat lost in thought, and asked with concern.

Hearing Lin Songbai’s voice, Lin Ruoxi came to her senses and said, "Grandfather, don’t worry, I’m fine now!"

Lin Songbai sighed.

Lin Ruoxi’s condition wasn’t good, ever since she had woken up, she had been quietly lying on the sofa, silently lost in thought.

In Lin Songbai’s view, this was naturally because Lin Ruoxi had been abducted to Jiangnan and had been frightened as a result.

"Grandfather is worried about your health, could you let Grandfather take your pulse and check again?" Although Lin Songbai wasn’t a doctor, as a Martial Arts Grandmaster, he could use his Inner Strength to probe whether Lin Ruoxi had suffered any internal injuries.

Of course, in actuality, doctors had already examined Lin Ruoxi and found her to be fine. Lin Songbai also intended this as a way to talk to Lin Ruoxi, to prevent her from overthinking.

Lin Ruoxi nodded her head.

She extended her hand but did not intend to engage in much conversation.

Lin Songbai sighed inwardly. He reached out and placed his hand on Lin Ruoxi’s pulse.

Instantly, Lin Songbai’s complexion changed.

He carefully probed again.

This made Lin Songbai’s expression unsettled and astonished.

"Grandfather, what’s wrong?"

Seeing Lin Songbai’s expression change, Lin Ruoxi immediately asked.

"Ruoxi, don’t worry, your body is fine. It’s just..." Lin Songbai was extremely astonished, "It’s just... when did you become a Martial Artist of the Fifth Stage Inner Strength?"

"Fifth Stage Inner Strength?" Lin Ruoxi’s eyes subconsciously widened.

"Yes, there is a surge of Inner Strength flowing within you now, with power likely around the level of the Fifth Stage Inner Strength. This is power many people can’t obtain even with a lifetime of hard work, how did you get it?" Lin Songbai stared at Lin Ruoxi, extremely shocked.

This granddaughter, whom he dearly loved, had practiced martial arts under his guidance, but he was certain that Lin Ruoxi had not been a Martial Artist of the Fifth Stage Inner Strength before.

She hadn’t even developed Inner Strength and could only be considered as having relatively good physical abilities among ordinary people.

But now, she had suddenly become a Martial Artist of the Fifth Stage Inner Strength?

"I... I don’t know..." Lin Ruoxi carefully sensed inwardly and discovered that indeed, there was a powerful force circulating within her, as if filling her limbs and bones, moving at will.

The shock and confusion on her face were identical to Lin Songbai’s.

"Could it be that something happened after you were taken to Jiangnan?" Other than that, Lin Songbai really couldn’t think of any other reason.

Lin Ruoxi’s delicate body stiffened instantly, and she stood there, dazed.

She suddenly remembered Su Luo’s words.

Su Luo had explained that after he fell unconscious, something had happened between them in a confused state, and afterward, not only had his injuries completely healed but his strength had also grown stronger.

It was too incredible.

Therefore, Lin Ruoxi had always considered those words as an excuse Su Luo had found for his beastly behavior, especially outrageous and unbelievable to the point that no one would believe it if she spoke out.

But now...

She had somehow become a Martial Artist of the Fifth Stage Inner Strength?

Didn’t this mean that what Su Luo said... was all true?!

Besides that, Lin Ruoxi really couldn’t think of any other possibility!

"So, I misunderstood him?"

Lin Ruoxi muttered to herself.

"Ruoxi, what did you say?" Lin Songbai was incredibly anxious inside; he was very concerned about Lin Ruoxi. In this world, there was no such thing as sudden, unearned power, which made Lin Songbai uneasy and worried for Lin Ruoxi.

"Nothing... nothing! Grandfather, rest assured, it likely has nothing to do with what happened in Jiangnan, don’t worry about me!" Lin Ruoxi explained.

"Then what is it because of?" Concerned for Lin Ruoxi, Lin Songbai could not be careless.

"Grandfather, I’ll ascertain this matter myself, can we please not discuss it further?" Lin Ruoxi lightly bit her lip, thinking of Su Luo, thinking of what happened the previous night, mist started to form in her eyes.

Lin Songbai immediately refrained from asking more, not wanting to upset Lin Ruoxi.

...

"She actually broke through to the Fifth Stage Inner Strength?"

Outside Lin Mansion, Su Luo was also somewhat surprised.

He had just sneaked into Lin Mansion to test the effectiveness of his Invisibility Technique, to see if Old Master Lin, the Martial Arts Grandmaster, could detect him.

This also allowed him to overhear the conversation between Lin Songbai and Lin Ruoxi.

What pleased Su Luo was that his Invisibility Technique worked. As long as he didn’t get too close to Lin Songbai, Lin Songbai didn’t detect him.

But...

He also saw Lin Ruoxi, saw the mist rising in her eyes, which made Su Luo feel self-reproach and guilt.

Fortunately, the "Yin Yang Longevity Method" had benefited not only him, allowing him to break through to the later stages of the Sixth Level of Qi Refinement, but also enabled Lin Ruoxi to step into the Fifth Stage Inner Strength in one fell swoop.

Of course, Su Luo suspected that Lin Ruoxi might not be a real Fifth Stage Inner Strength Martial Artist.

Perhaps, what was born in her body was the True Qi of a Qi Refinement Realm Cultivator.

However, this was something Su Luo couldn’t verify for the time being.

He took out his phone, hesitating.

In the end, Su Luo still resisted and didn’t call Lin Ruoxi, feeling that she probably didn’t want to see him right now; he didn’t want to agitate her emotions.

He would wait until Lin Ruoxi was more emotionally stable before going to see her.

Regardless, having slept with her and taken her innocence, he still had to take responsibility!

Su Luo left Lin Mansion.

He didn’t go anywhere else, but went directly to Zhou Mansion.

Based on the information he had previously gathered while living near Qing Zhi Bar, from Rose, Zhou Shihao would personally visit each of his various clubs, bars, and entertainment cities on this day of the month to make an appearance.

So, tonight was his opportunity as well.

He could use the Invisibility Technique to enter Zhou Mansion, find Shen Qingzhi, and inquire about some information.
