Chapter 129: Chapter 79: Establishing Authority and Fame, Yue Qianfeng Returns!_3

At last, he left. It wasn’t just this group of military merit-holders who had protectors; the elder who had been inseparably following Xue Daoyong, just like what the elder from the Central Plains Dai Sect had done when he was young, was still trailing behind him.

The trusted aide reported the matter to the elder who was writing at Wind Listening Pavilion.

Xue Daoyong asked, "Shifeng, you didn’t make a move?"

The trusted aide Liu Shifeng replied with a smile, "Mr. Li’s Shattering Jade Fist has achieved great success. He killed a military officer from the second-story tower and didn’t need my intervention."

Xue Daoyong burst into laughter.

Liu Shifeng finally said, "Mr. Li rode his horse hard, dragging them for about ten miles, before having the government officials brought by them take all these military merit-holders into Guan Yi City. Related to Yue Qianfeng, they have now been locked in the dungeon."

Xue Daoyong, while writing, asked, "Who’s in charge of them?"

The elderly trusted aide replied, "It’s the son of the fourth-rank General Xuanwu, Qi Junsong."

Xue Daoyong said, "Qi Junsong, huh? He’s almost at the Fourth Layer Heaven level, a martial artist who has picked up quite a bit of military merit at the border. He’s considered a general of the Younger Generation, with tactics, and his saber technique isn’t bad either."

"Guan Yi held back because he didn’t want to cause trouble for my family, haha, he’s a good kid."

"He knows the appropriate measure, yet the old man can’t neglect his own child. One good turn deserves another."

The elder didn’t say anything more, finishing his calligraphy, and gestured Liu Shifeng to come take a look. Liu Shifeng saw a landscape painting where a spirited horse was galloping; on one side, the inscription read "Qi swallows ten thousand miles." Liu Shifeng said, "These are good characters."

Xue Daoyong said, "Naturally, they’re good."

He admired it for a while, then casually threw down the brush and said, "Give this to Qi Junsong."

The elder said indifferently, "I remember, he doesn’t just have one son, right?"

This seemingly calm statement held an indescribable chill and killing intent. Li Guanyi had held back to save face for Qi Junsong. The elder appreciated such kindness. Businessmen believe in reciprocity and that they should also give something in return.

The elder sighed to himself:

"He’s still a child, not understanding that you should either not do something at all, or do it thoroughly."

"Why would the old man need his care? My hands are already full of blood; one more won’t make a difference."

"Shifeng, make sure you handle the aftermath."

"The children are still immature. I heard that he’s been wandering the alleys of Jiangnan with Shuangtao, composing music for her to play on the flute, then climbing trees together and carrying her back. It’s clear they’re still young, seeing only the spring freshness and autumn moon, blind to the bloodshed of a chaotic world. We’re old now; our era has passed."

"To smooth out their path to the world is the last duty for us old bones."

"I want to teach him the principles of this chaotic world with the smallest price."

"That’s exactly what an elder should do."

"Otherwise, the price he’ll have to pay to really understand this, will be far too great."

Complex emotions flickered in the elder’s eyes.

Liu Shifeng nodded with a smile, whispering:

"Yes, I understand."

......

Li Guanyi pressed this gang into the dungeon of Guan Yi City. Regardless of their insults and shouts, he filed the paperwork and then returned to the Xue Family. When it was time for the medicinal bath, he took off his soft armor, and beneath it was another layer of padding, yet his chest was still bruised purple.

Li Guanyi soaked in the medicinal bath, reminiscing about today’s combat.

Brief, yet perilous.

He had used all the methods at his disposal.

In the end, it was the technique learned when the White Tiger Sect was Entering Realm, which had been realized from the starlight that broke the defense. Then he followed through with the Shattering Jade Fist to break the opponent’s heart. If Li Guanyi had achieved Qi Condensation, he wouldn’t have needed that last punch; the self-realized technique from the White Tiger Sect would have sufficed.

Qi Condensation, ah...

Li Guanyi sat cross-legged, practicing his breathing. The power of the medicine converged inside his body, and then he tried to temper his Inner Qi. But it was a slow and arduous process. Sitting in tranquil meditation, his Qi Condensation progressed rapidly.

It’s just a pity it can’t be accomplished overnight.

After the medicinal bath, he got up and practiced a set of exercises to invigorate his Qi Mechanism, ready to sit in meditation again.

Suddenly, there was a tremor in his chest.

The bronze tripod resonated, the Red Dragon Dharma Form shone brightly, and soon the Jade Liquid accumulated.

This familiar sensation brightened Li Guanyi’s eyes. He quickly turned and went outside, seeing that the evening had deepened. Around the corner, a dignified big man sat cross-legged, holding a wine pot, with the Red Dragon coiling behind him.

The man lifted his wine pot, a smile on his face: "You seem to be doing well."

"Fellow culprit!"

"Care to join me for a drink?"

"Hahaha!"

Ranked thirty-four on the Divine General List, number one in foot combat.

Yue Qianfeng!

The bronze tripod, vibrating intensely.
