Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

“What? There’s fake herbs again?!”

Chi Defeng seemed to have just found out and shouted, “Little brother, it’s fine. I know that those people are not honest, so I specially asked them to pick a portion more this time. This way, you’ll get all ten portions you asked for.”

As Chi Defeng spoke, he dragged out some medicinal herbs from another room and placed them in front of Chen Fei.

Chen Fei looked at Chi Defeng. He had prepared for two scenarios. If Chen Fei didn’t discover anything, he would just treat it as a profit. Even if they were discovered, there were still spare medicinal herbs.

This Chi Defeng was really something else.

“Let me take a look.”

Chen Fei went forward to check the new medicinal herbs. After a moment, Chen Fei’s face turned a little dark, having discovered that some fake medicinal herbs were mixed in.

Chen Fei stood up and looked at Chi Defeng.

“More fake ones? This is too much, this is really too much!”

Chi Defeng was shaking like a rattle drum. He flipped his hand and took out a bag of medicinal herbs from his back. He handed it to Chen Fei and said, “Take a look again. Fortunately, I’ve prepared enough.”

Fifteen minutes later, Chen Fei left the black market with his bag. The merchants in this black market were all the same. They were all profit-oriented. Because he understood this, Chen Fei did not think of replacing Chi Defeng.

At the very least, the quality of the medicinal herbs that Chi Defeng gave was not bad. Moreover, he was able to deliver the goods on time.

Returning to the courtyard he rented, Chen Fei entered the pill room and spent more than two hours refining all the medicinal ingredients into the Qi Rejuvenation Pill.

As his proficiency continued to approach Great Completion, the rate of Qi Rejuvenation Pills being produced became higher and higher. With ten sets of medicinal ingredients, Chen Fei had managed to refine a total of 31 Qi Rejuvenation Pills.

“If I sell these, I can simplify Immortal Way.”

Chen Fei couldn’t help but break into a smile. Chen Fei had been coveting this sword technique for a long time. Once he cultivates that, Chen Fei would have a killing move. Even if he faced enemies stronger than him, he might have a chance of fighting back or even killing them.

The next morning, before Chen Fei left the house, Liu Jun came knocking on his door.

“Something bad has happened!”

Chen Fei noticed that Liu Jun appeared to be very flustered.

“What’s wrong?” Chen Fei handed over a cup of tea and said with a smile.

“Steward Sun. Steward Sun ran away and killed many people!”

As Liu Jun said this, he couldn’t help but tremble. It was as though the blood on the floor of the medical hall seemed to flow in front of him again.

“Calm down. Tell me what happened.” Chen Fei’s expression turned serious.

“In the morning, someone from the main family came and said that he wanted Steward Sun to go to the Zhang family to discuss something, and then Steward Sun wanted to run…”

Liu Jun gulped down a few mouthfuls of tea and calmed down slightly. He told Chen Fei what happened in the morning in detail, allowing Chen Fei to understand what had happened.

The Zhang family guard asked Sun Shu to go to the Zhang family. Sun Shu wanted to go back to his room to get something, but in the end, he wanted to run away through the secret passage in the room.

Yes, Sun Shu directly dug a secret passage in his room as if he had long been prepared to be discovered. However, the Zhang guards who came this time were very cautious and immediately discovered that something was wrong.

They rushed into the room and started fighting with Sun Shu.

Sun Shu displayed extremely powerful strength. Two of the five guards were killed, and Sun Shu managed to escape.

The Zhang family was furious and reported the situation to the yamen. They also offered a reward for Sun Shu. As long as they provided information about Sun Shu, they could get a considerable sum of silver.

As the assistant manager of the clinic, Chen Fei naturally had to go to the clinic when he knew that something had happened.

“Physician Qin is dead?”

Not long after he arrived at the clinic, another piece of news came. Physician Qin, who had come to the North City Medical Hall a few days ago, had just been killed on the street.

The murderer was wearing a bamboo hat, so Chen Fei couldn’t see his face clearly. However, Chen Fei knew that the murderer was Sun Shu.

“How vengeful!” Chen Fei muttered to himself.

This Sun Shu probably guessed that his exposure was related to Physician Qin. After all, Physician Qin happened to come to the North City Medical Hall a few days ago.

What Chen Fei didn’t expect was that after Sun Shu escaped from the medical center, he didn’t leave the county immediately. Instead, he attacked and killed Physician Qin. He didn’t wait a night to exact his revenge. He’s a ruthless person!

Everyone in the clinic knew about this, so the Zhang family naturally got the news earlier.

This time, the Zhang family was really furious. Sun Shu’s actions were like a slap on the Zhang family’s face. Unsurprisingly, the bounty doubled in an instant, to the point that even Chen Fei was tempted by it.

However, thinking about Sun Shu’s current strength, Chen Fei still gave up on this thought.

There were five guards in the morning, one in the Bone Tempering realm and four in the Body Tempering realm. Sun Shu was able to kill two of them and leave calmly. Chen Fei’s current cultivation is no match for Sun Shu.

For the entire day, the North City Medical Hall was in a mess. Everyone was scatterbrained.

As night fell, Chen Fei left the clinic and walked towards his residence.

After passing through a few alleys and just as he was about to step into his own courtyard, Chen Fei suddenly stopped. He looked around with a hesitant expression and slowly took a few steps back.

“You’re quite sharp. To think I hadn’t noticed that before!”

A voice rang out. At some point in time, a black figure appeared on the courtyard wall. At this moment, he was looking down at Chen Fei from above. His gaze was so cold that it made one’s body tremble.

“Steward Sun?”

Chen Fei’s pupils constricted slightly. Although the person had covered his face, Chen Fei could roughly recognize him just by looking at his figure, especially since the person did not hide his voice at all.

“I’m not a steward now. I’m just a hooligan!” Sun Shu laughed in a low voice. His voice was a little ear-piercing as if there were countless thin needles that wanted to pierce into your neck.

“Steward Sun must be joking.”

Chen Fei quietly took a few steps back and stared at Sun Shu. “May I know why Steward Sun is here?”

“I thought about it today. How did the Zhang family find out about me? One possibility is that Qin guy and the other is you!”

Sun Shu looked at Chen Fei coldly and said, ” So, before I leave Pingyin County, I have to come and see you. Otherwise, I won’t be able to scratch that itch.”

“Steward Sun, you’ve misunderstood!”

“What I think is right is right. As for what you think, what does it have to do with me? What does it have to do with you if I want to kill you?” Sun Shu laughed loudly.

“Steward Sun is right. Goodbye, Steward Sun!”

As soon as Chen Fei finished speaking, his figure flickered, and he disappeared from where he was.

“You want to run? Did you ask me for permission to do so?”

Sun Shu snorted coldly. His figure moved and directly followed Chen Fei’s footsteps. After a short while, Sun Shu’s arrogant smile slowly disappeared.

Sun Shu originally thought that he could catch Chen Fei in a few steps. However, the distance between the two sides was getting further and further. In just a moment, the two sides were already dozens of meters apart.

As time passed, the distance between them continued to widen.

Sun Shu’s eyes were filled with shock. Didn’t Chen Fei just break through to the Skin Toughening Realm not long ago?

Was this the speed of a movement technique that could be achieved by someone in the Skin Toughening realm?
