Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister
Chapter 98 - 97: One Punch, One Throw

Chapter 98: Chapter 97: One Punch, One Throw

Ink Lotus Pavilion rooftop.

Chen Xuan heard Pei Hu’s pleading, almost bursting into laughter.

That day, he was boasting shamelessly, saying that if he encountered the Flower Thief, he’d definitely show him a thing or two.

But....

Now.... hahaha....

When Qin Gang and his men were sweeping the East District today, he had already guessed that they wouldn’t check here.

Ink Lotus Pavilion was the trap he had set for the Flower Thief.

Originally, he didn’t expect him to jump in so quickly.

Yet today’s visit from Luo Encheng was also within his calculations.

With such a commotion in the East District, if he wanted to catch this Flower Thief so badly, he was bound to come looking for him.

So,

Other districts also began their sweeps in the afternoon.

With such a big commotion, his portrait had already spread around.

Moreover,

the Divine Capture Bureau required inns, restaurants, and entertainment venues to check anyone visiting them thoroughly, with no concealment allowed, and to report directly to the Bureau if anyone refused.

So those places were off-limits to him.

As for the streets, they were even more dangerous.

Now, every night, patrols covered the four major districts, unless he found a hole to crawl into.

But,

since he needed to absorb the essence of men and women daily, that was impossible too.

Therefore, if he stayed in the East District, Ink Lotus Pavilion was the only option.

Indeed, he made a strategic return tonight, and unexpectedly, it yielded a harvest.

"Don’t come over here....."

Pei Hu’s miserable cry came once again.

Chen Xuan felt it was about time; if he waited any longer, his brother-in-law might be too far gone. So.....

He exerted a little force underfoot.

"Bang....."

He directly opened a hole in the rooftop, and his figure floated from the roof into the room.

"Who’s there!"

The loud noise startled the man instantly.

Seeing Chen Xuan descend from the sky was enough to fill his pupils with terror.

"How could it be? Didn’t he leave? How is he here?"

At this moment, a sense of doom welled up in him.

And when Pei Hu saw Chen Xuan, he nearly cried out, hurriedly yelling, "Save me, Chen Xuan!"

"I warned you to be careful, pay attention, but you just won’t listen!"

Chen Xuan was truly helpless; he’d already warned him, yet he hadn’t taken any precautions.

Really....

I’m just a Seventh Grade; what sort of defense could I have?

Pei Hu felt aggrieved but dared not speak up.

"Did you set a trap for me?" The man’s sly voice rang out, glaring at him viciously.

"Pretty much, but it’s your own doing. If you hadn’t committed murder on my turf, I’d be too lazy to bother with you! You’re the one who sullied my reputation!"

"Two options for you!"

Chen Xuan held up two fingers,

"One, come quietly with me!"

"Two, I’ll beat you up, and you come quietly with me after!"

So arrogant!

"Hahaha...."

The man was provoked into laughter.

This meant he didn’t take him seriously at all, disdainfully saying, "Did you forget? I killed all the Divine Capture Bureau agents in the East District?"

"Of course, if I wanted, I could do it again!"

In the four major district Divine Capture Bureaus, the strongest was only Fifth Grade.

He, having polished his Fifth Grade Bone Grinding to almost seventy percent, saw everybody but the head of the Bureau as insignificant.

Chen Xuan dared to be this arrogant in his presence.

Courting death!

In an instant, his eyes shone with a cold glint! He dashed at him like a red shadow.

"Truly courting death!"

The figure vanished instantly.

"What?" The man’s strike missed, and he was taken aback.

"Behind you!" Chen Xuan’s ghostly voice came, and the moment the man turned his head.

Chen Xuan punched him in the abdomen.

Immediately, the man felt a pain that pierced his heart.

The blow threatened to fling him away.

However,

Chen Xuan grabbed his hand and pulled him back.

With all his might, he slammed him down!

"Bang bang bang....."

This slam sent the man crashing from the fifth floor to the ground floor.

Chen Xuan leisurely descended from the fifth floor, gazing at the man now lying on the ground like a dead dog.

"I told you, just come quietly with me, but you insisted on getting beat up! Truly despicable!"

That punch shattered his internal organs and sealed all his acupoints.

And the slam, made his injuries worse, knocking him unconscious.

Then,

Pei Hu also came down, cautiously approaching Chen Xuan, still a bit scared, "He... can’t get up, right?"

"Don’t worry, apart from still breathing, he’s pretty much dead."

"Phew...."

Hearing this, he finally got bold and walked up to the man.

With a stomp,

"Damn you, daring to have ideas about me."

"Brother, calling me brother, yuck! It’s so damn disgusting..."

"Bah!"

.....

Chen Xuan didn’t stop him, just letting him vent out, having let Pei Geng go home today also meant to fish out the Flower Thief.

"Alright, alright! That’s enough, don’t beat him to death!"

Seeing him venting enough, he finally spoke up.

"Bah!"

"You’re lucky!" Pei Hu came over, "This kind of person, you must torture him severely!"

"Alright, got it, go on back to sleep!" he said, twisting the man’s neck, like handling a chick, and walked out of Ink Lotus Pavilion.

"Sleep? Sleep my foot!"

....

Divine Capture Bureau Headquarters.

"Chen Xuan, you did well this time, capturing that Flower Thief in such a short period. As promised, you are now the Deputy Director of the Divine Capture Bureau, and I’ll grant you 800 contribution points at this year’s assessment!"

This morning, upon learning that Chen Xuan had captured the Flower Thief, he thought he misheard.

But when he confirmed it was true, he felt a sense of clarity throughout his body.

He quickly summoned Chen Xuan over and, after a thorough questioning, showered him with words of praise one after another.

Couldn’t stop them.

When four people died in the East District, he specifically sent someone to scold them.

If he had known it would have this kind of effect, he would have done it sooner.

If Chen Xuan knew what he was thinking now, he’d knock him dead.

"Thank you, Director."

At the moment, he was portraying a very humble demeanor.

"Good, good!" Zhuge Potian was now increasingly pleased with him.

"Chen Xuan, do a good job, this bureau truly sees potential in you; maybe, in the future, the director’s position will be yours!"

"I wouldn’t dare! I wouldn’t dare! Lord Zhuge, you are still youthful, in the future, I will rely on your guidance more."

"Hahaha....."

Zhuge Potian laughed heartily, looking at him with increasingly satisfaction.

"By the way, do you have any requests? Today, I’m in a good mood, as long as it’s not too excessive, you can ask." Having resolved such a big issue, seeing Chen Xuan in a favorable light, he became generous.

"Anything?" Chen Xuan asked.

"As long as it’s not excessive!" Curiously, he asked wondering what this young man would request.

"I just want to ask about cultivation techniques. Besides contribution points, is there any other way to obtain techniques that can be cultivated to the third grade... or even higher?"

"No, only contribution points can be exchanged!"

Upon hearing his response, Chen Xuan showed disappointment.

Looks like he was overthinking it. If there were other paths, the Great Xia Court wouldn’t have designed such a complicated system.

"Is your current cultivation technique only cultivable up to the fifth grade?" Seeing his disappointment, Zhuge Potian also asked.

"It can be cultivated up to the fourth grade, but I’m nearing the fourth grade, hence the thought!"

"Hmm!"

Zhuge Potian nodded, understanding him.

However, about this matter, he too had no way, though...

"This year’s assessment, plus 800 points, you will have about 1300. Even without anything else, as Deputy Director of the Divine Capture Bureau, you will have at least 500 contribution points each year. Calculating this way, in 3 years or so, it’s doable. Your fifth-grade status will also take time, so you can catch up. No need to rush now!"

"I was just asking, thank you, Lord Zhuge. I will return to the Divine Capture Bureau first!"

....

East District Divine Capture Bureau!

Chen Xuan, as usual, lay on the chair and let out a weary sigh.

Three years, damn it, three years.

"Forget it, let’s not think about it, take one step at a time, or maybe one day it might spontaneously evolve!"

Comforting himself inwardly.

Then, he pulled out two books from his embrace.

"Art of Dragon Mastery"

"Joyful Cultivation Technique"

He obtained a cultivation technique and a martial skill last night from the Flower Thief.

....

When Chen Xuan finished reading these two books,

his expression turned somewhat peculiar.

Pairing this cultivation technique with this martial skill would undeniably make someone into a Flower Thief.

"Art of Dragon Mastery" simply put is a more advanced version of his bedroom techniques.

"Joyful Cultivation Technique" involves absorbing women’s essence for cultivation.

As for why the Flower Thief ultimately targeted men, it was likely as he had suspected before, something went wrong with the cultivation.

Needed some Yin and Yang harmony, or perhaps the person discovered some shortcut.

"System!"

A golden panel appeared.

[Name: Chen Xuan]

[Life Span: 19/240]

[Special Devices: Spring Water (Skill point bonus 30%), Immaculate (Reduced difficulty in comprehending cultivation techniques and martial skills by 30%), Phantom Charm]

[Divine Technique: Evolution]

[Spousal Bind: Su Yun]

[Realm: Fourth Grade (Blood Renewal 22%)]

[Cultivation Technique: Nine Revolutions Secret Technique (Lower Part) (Complete), Joyful Cultivation Technique (Uninitiated (0/300))]

[Skill: Art of Dragon Mastery (Uninitiated (0/300))]

....

]

[Skill Points: 2002]

This Joyful Cultivation Technique is quite ordinary; entry-level requires only 300 skill points, even the upper section of Nine Revolutions Secret Technique required 300.

Looks like it might reach a maximum of fifth grade, definitely not beyond fourth grade, not of interest to him.

However, this Art of Dragon Mastery seems decent.

Among the martial skills Chen Xuan knows, need 300 points to initiate is considered high.

Moreover..... this is useful for him!

Although he is now a fourth-grade expert, there hasn’t been much improvement in that regard.

At least, for now, he still can’t defeat Su Wanqiu.

Even after Su Yun achieved Ninth Grade, she seems to have grown significantly stronger too.

As for Liu Rushi.... that’s something difficult to express, the woman is rather strange.

The one he can handle now is just Pei Yuenan.

Henceforth....

"Add points to Art of Dragon Mastery"

Art of Dragon Mastery (Minor Achievement (0/400))

....

"Add points to Art of Dragon Mastery"

Art of Dragon Mastery (Proficient (0/600))

...

Add points!

....

Art of Dragon Mastery (Major Achievement)

Spent 1300 points, directly upgraded Art of Dragon Mastery to the peak.

"This affluent feeling is great, unlike before when adding points would be so stingy!"

Chen Xuan nodded, very satisfied.

"Tonight.... let’s test with Wanqiu first!"

Since he is choosing, he surely needs to pick the highest difficulty.
