Chapter 32: Chapter 32 Shen Qingzhi’s Phone Call

After communicating with Lin Songbai, Su Luo had gained a certain understanding of the Jiangbei Martial Arts Community.

It was then that Su Luo was planning to take his leave.

Just before departing, Lin Songbai suddenly said, "Young friend, don’t forget the agreement between us."

Su Luo instantly understood what Lin Songbai was referring to.

He didn’t say much, just chuckled and hastened to leave.

"Grandfather, what agreement did you make with him?"

As Su Luo was leaving, he faintly heard the somewhat cold voice of Lin Ruoxi coming from behind him.

Upon returning to Huichuntang.

Wei Hongbo also asked Su Luo for his account number, intending to transfer the promised one million to Su Luo.

But Su Luo had a change of heart, "Elder Wei, about that one million, let’s convert it into medicinal herbs instead. I’ll just take two million worth of medicinal herbs from you."

After all, he had already received five million as consultation fees from Lin Ruoxi and was not short on cash.

"No problem, take whatever you like, don’t worry about the cost," Wei Hongbo agreed readily.

Of course, even though Wei Hongbo said so, Su Luo only took medicinal herbs worth two million.

Because Su Luo chose herbs that were quite old, they were considered rarities stocked by Huichuntang, the quantity seemed not too much.

"With these two million worth of medicinal herbs, once turned into Qi Replenishing Pills, I should be able to cultivate to the peak of the Third Level of Qi Refinement," Su Luo thought to himself.

However, this was still not enough!

Given that Lin Jiangpu was an expert at the Fifth Stage Inner Strength, Su Luo felt that he at least needed to break through to the Fourth Level of Qi Refinement to face him with some degree of safety.

Unfortunately, almost all of the herbs useful to Su Luo in Huichuntang were about to be completely picked out by him.

"Elder Wei, do you know where I can find medicinal herbs that are a hundred years old?" Su Luo inquired Wei Hongbo.

If there were hundred-year-old herbs, the spiritual energy contained within them would be more abundant, and the medicinal properties more potent. Using them as the main ingredients, Su Luo was confident in concocting the Xiao Peiyuan Pill, which would have better effects than the Qi Replenishing Pill.

As long as he had enough Xiao Peiyuan Pills, Su Luo was confident that he could break through to the Fourth Level of Qi Refinement in one go.

With that achievement, even when confronted by Lin Jiangpu, Su Luo wouldn’t have to worry about his own safety.

If he couldn’t win, at least escaping wouldn’t be an issue; he could ensure his survival.

After all, as long as the matter with Lin Jiangpu was not resolved, there was always a sense of crisis in Su Luo’s heart, fearing that Lin Jiangpu might suddenly emerge.

"Hundred-year-old medicinal herbs are hard to find on the market, and the prices are also quite inflated. But since Mr. Su has made the request, I will certainly find a way to locate some for you," Wei Hongbo immediately gave his assurance.

"If that is the case, then I thank Elder Wei greatly," Su Luo expressed his gratitude.

Afterward, Su Luo left with the medicinal herbs and returned to the Su Family Ancestral House.

He didn’t go through the main entrance.

Instead, he went back by leaping over walls and walking on roof ridges.

Once home.

Su Luo’s expression immediately turned solemn.

"Has someone been here?"

He discovered traces that things in the room had been moved.

This immediately stirred a sense of unease in Su Luo’s heart.

Apart from Lin Jiangpu, he really couldn’t think of anyone else who would sneak into his house so stealthily.

"Looks like I can’t concoct pills at the old house anymore," Su Luo thought to himself.

Pill concoction was a process that required undivided concentration, and absolutely could not be disturbed; otherwise, it was very easy to fail.

The medicinal herbs Su Luo had purchased had not come easily, and he couldn’t afford to fail.

Moreover, the most critical issue was, if Lin Jiangpu came over again and discovered him, he would be in danger.

At once.

Su Luo then quietly left the Su Family Ancestral House.

"Otherwise, should I rent an apartment first?" Su Luo pondered, but the thought made him feel somewhat stifled, fueling his longing for powerful strength.

However, it was at this moment that Su Luo’s phone suddenly rang.

"A strange number?"

Su Luo frowned.

He answered, "Who is this?"

"I am Shen Qingzhi." A pleasant voice came through, laced with an air of refined elegance.

"Aunt Shen?" Su Luo was overjoyed, "How did you get my number?"

After he asked, Su Luo felt that his question was rather foolish. Given Aunt Shen’s status, connections, and means, getting his contact information would have been effortless. Not to mention, she could have easily obtained it from Xu Yanran, as Shen Qingzhi was Xu Yanran’s distant aunt.

As expected, Shen Qingzhi’s voice came through the phone, "That was a rather stupid question."

Su Luo gave an embarrassed smile, "Aunt Shen, what do you need from me?"

"Lin Wu is dead," Shen Qingzhi asked, "was it you who killed him?"

Aunt Shen was, after all, publicly known as Zhou Shihao’s woman, so Su Luo was not surprised that she knew of this news.

He admitted, "It was me."

Shen Qingzhi seemed somewhat surprised, "It really was you."

Then, Shen Qingzhi continued, "Lin Wu’s brother, Lin Jiangpu, one of Jiangbei’s Top Ten Inner Strength Experts, is now looking for you. The Su Family Ancestral House might already be under surveillance, so don’t go back there for now. Head over to Qing Zhi Bar, I’ve arranged a place for you to stay. You should lie low for a while."

Su Luo’s heart swelled with joy.

He had indeed been considering finding a temporary residence outside, where he could peacefully cultivate and refine pills.

This suited him just fine.

Of course, what truly pleased Su Luo wasn’t the shelter, but Shen Qingzhi’s concern for him.

"Will I see you there?" Su Luo asked.

After a moment of silence, Shen Qingzhi answered, "Yes."

"Great, I’ll head there right away." Su Luo immediately became excited, seeing no reason to hesitate at the chance to meet Aunt Shen.

After hanging up, Su Luo, carrying the medicinal herbs, immediately hailed a cab and made a beeline for Qing Zhi Bar.

Since it was daytime, Qing Zhi Bar was not very crowded.

As soon as Su Luo walked in, an attractive, short-haired woman with a voluptuous figure greeted him, "Sir, may I ask your surname?"

Su Luo was startled; since when did bars ask for your surname?

But in an instant, Su Luo realized, and replied without showing any emotion, "I’m surnamed Su!"

"Mr. Su, this way please." The short-haired woman immediately smiled.

She didn’t lead Su Luo to the bar but to a room on the third floor, "Mr. Su, from now on, this will be your temporary abode. Oh, and my name is Rose, I work for Shen Jie. People here usually call me Sister Rose, so if you need anything at all, just let me know."

"Sister Rose, I actually do need a favor. I need a set of cooking utensils, preferably with a clay pot," Su Luo said.

He needed them for pill refining.

"Are you planning to cook yourself?" Rose appeared somewhat surprised.

"Something like that," Su Luo didn’t feel the need to explain.

"Alright." Rose opened her mouth as if about to say she would take care of Su Luo’s meals, but on second thought, she kept it to herself.

She was simply following Shen Qingzhi’s orders, and wouldn’t interfere too much with Su Luo.

Rose was highly efficient.

It wasn’t long before she delivered a set of cooking utensils, including a clay pot, to Su Luo.

"Sister Rose, when does Aunt Shen usually come to the bar?" Su Luo thanked her, then asked.

Ever since learning he could meet Shen Qingzhi, Su Luo had been eagerly anticipating it, wishing to see her sooner.
