Chapter 101: Big Event, Wei Family Changes, Some Kindness

“I didn’t expect that the pattern in a small piece of silver could contain so much information.”

Lu Qing muttered to himself with a gleam in his eyes.

Just now, he finally understood the patterns on the piece of silver in his hand, and grasped the connection between it and the gold runes in the general outline of the Shenfu Sect's inheritance.

Of course, this doesn't mean that he has already mastered the basics of runes. He only has a slight understanding of it, and it is still a long way to go before that stage.

But as the saying goes, the beginning is always the hardest.

For any perception, the breakthrough from zero to one is the most difficult.

Now Lu Qing has taken the most difficult step. With this insight, it will be much easier for him to comprehend the texture of other things in the future.

I believe that the day when I can truly learn the way of runes is not too far away.

After putting the silver back into his arms, Lu Qing was in a very good mood.

Today is truly a good day. Not only has my martial arts training reached perfection in terms of Qi and blood, but I have also made breakthrough progress in my comprehension of the way of runes.

After packing up his things, he walked out of the bamboo forest and went back home.

As soon as I returned to the village, I saw a man waiting at the door of his yard, looking outside.

"Brother Xiaotian?"

Lu Qing recognized the man and couldn't help but shout in surprise.

"Mr. Lu, you are finally back!"

Xiaotian was surprised when he saw Lu Qing.

"It's a rare occasion for you to visit, why are you standing outside instead of coming in to sit down?" Lu Qing asked.

"I knocked on the door, but no one was home, young master." Xiaotian said a little embarrassedly.

Lu Qing then remembered that Xiaoyan and Xiaoli went to play with their master today.

"Sorry for not welcoming you well. Please come in and sit down." Lu Qing opened the bamboo door of the yard.

"No need, Mr. Lu. I came here this time because I have something urgent to discuss with you." Xiaotian refused.

"Oh, what is it?"

Lu Qing remembered his anxious expression before.

"I don't know the details, but here is a letter that Master Ma asked me to give to you. You will know the answer at a glance."

Xiaotian took out a wax-stamped letter from his arms.

Lu Qing took the letter, opened it, took out the letter inside and read it quickly.

Then the more he looked, the more serious his expression became.

The letter was indeed written by Ma Gu, and Lu Qing could still recognize his handwriting.

There is only one main thing in it.

That is, something happened to the Wei family.

The cause was that a few days ago, a group of mysterious people came to Wei Mansion in the county town and started shouting loudly in public.

This scene immediately alarmed all the big and small forces in the city.

You know, the Wei family has always had a transcendent status in the county.

Even if it was a county lord, one had to show some courtesy and not dare to offend him.

Now, someone actually dared to challenge the Wei family. How could the forces in the city not be shocked?

Are these people so bold as to not know the consequences of their own actions?

Just when the powerful forces in the city thought that this group of mysterious people were in big trouble.

As expected, the Silver Moon Guards in the Wei Mansion were dispatched.

An entire team of Silver Moon Guards rushed directly towards the group of mysterious people.

However, to everyone's surprise, the Silver Moon Guards, who they considered to be extremely powerful, were unable to capture the mysterious group of people.

On the contrary, they were beaten back step by step. In the end, it was the chief steward of the Wei family who took action personally to stabilize the situation and stop the group of mysterious people.

However, even though they were blocked, the mysterious group of people remained arrogant.

He threatened that since the Wei family's innate ancestor was dead, it would be wise not to occupy the treasure any longer and to hand it over as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if you cling to the treasure too tightly, you might end up bringing disaster upon yourself and your entire clan.

After making these harsh remarks, the mysterious group of people retreated temporarily.

But what they said shook the whole city.

First, the forces in the city realized that the Wei family had actually had an ancestor in the Xiantian realm.

What shocked them even more was that the ancestor seemed to be dead now.

These mysterious people seemed to be coming for some treasure from the Wei Mansion. Not only were they all very powerful, they were also not afraid of the Wei family at all.

It was simply unbelievable to the powerful forces in the city.

However, no one knew that this was just the beginning.

Next, for several days in a row, new faces arrived in the city.

Every day, there were people wandering around the Wei Mansion, and in the middle of the night, one could always hear the sound of fighting coming from the Wei Mansion.

Then on the next day, someone saw corpses being cleared out of Wei's mansion.

But this still failed to stop those people from coveting the mysterious treasure in the Wei Mansion, and new warriors still gathered in the city every day.

At the end of the letter, Ma Gu said to Lu Qing very seriously.

Nowadays, a large number of warriors have gathered in the county, and the situation is surging.

The Wei family seems to be able to stabilize the situation now, but no one knows how long it can last.

Under such circumstances, the Wei family would definitely not care about such a trivial matter as the Black Wolf Gang.

And as far as he knew, the Black Wolf Gang seemed to have recently hooked up with some powerful warrior and started to become arrogant again.

It’s hard to say whether they will think of investigating the matter of Happy Village again.

So Magu reminded Lu Qing not to go out casually recently, so as to avoid running into people from the Black Wolf Gang and causing unnecessary trouble.

Lu Qing closed the letter and his expression became somewhat solemn.

The news from Magu is indeed very important.

I didn’t expect that the Wei family actually has an ancestor in the Xiantian realm.

No wonder the Wei family was able to expand rapidly from a small family in a county to become a wealthy family spanning across the state capital and with connections reaching the royal capital.

It turns out that its essence lies here.

Unfortunately, success or failure is determined by nature.

Now that the innate ancestor of the Wei family has run into problems, the backlash is coming.

Those who coveted the Wei family's wealth all pounced on them at once.

I don’t know if the Wei family can hold on?

Lu Qing thought to himself.

He still has a very good impression of the Wei family.

Not to mention the secret books and elixirs given by General Manager Wei.

Take the incident at Happy Village for example. It was the Wei family who temporarily blocked the Black Wolf Gang for him.

Lu Qing still remembers this kindness.

However, even though he owed a favor, Lu Qing could do nothing about what happened to the Wei family.

According to what Ma Gu said in the letter, the warriors gathered in the county now are at least at the level of tendons and bones, and there are even some strong men in the internal organs realm.

In this situation, what can he, a mere Qi and Blood Realm warrior, do?

The only thing we can do is to pray that the Wei family’s foundation is strong enough to withstand this storm.

"Just the Black Wolf Gang?"

Lu Qing thought of what Ma Gu said last in the letter, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.

The accounts between him and the Black Wolf Gang have never been settled.

If these scumbags jumped up again, he wouldn't mind teaching them a painful lesson.

Xiaotian, who was standing by, couldn't help but shudder when he saw the coldness in Lu Qing's eyes.

He couldn't help but recall the scene that night when Lu Qing stood among the crowd of heads.

That scene was a horrible sight that he would never forget.

"Young Master Lu, the situation in the city is complicated right now. My master has returned to the city to help the clan maintain order. During this period, the grand gathering will be temporarily handed over to me. If you need anything, just let me know. I will try my best to prepare it for you."

During this period, Lu Qing would occasionally go to the market.

Xiaotian knew that he often asked for a lot of things.

"Thank you very much."

Lu Qing nodded. He looked at Xiaotian and suddenly something moved in his heart.

“Brother Xiaotian, have you been stuck in the Qi and Blood Realm for a long time?”

Xiao Tian was stunned for a moment, then he said respectfully: "I am very stupid, I am sorry to make you laugh, Mr. Lu."

Xiaotian was also a little depressed. He had been following Master Ma for quite some time and often received guidance from him.

His physical fitness had long been trained to the peak level of ordinary people.

But somehow, he just couldn't take the last step and understand the secret of connecting Qi and blood that Master Ma had mentioned.

This makes it difficult to enter the Qi and Blood state.

Seeing the disappointment in Xiaotian's eyes, Lu Qing smiled.

He took out a pill and handed it over.

"During this period of time, Brother Xiaotian has been running around a lot. Here is a pill. Consider it a gift from me to Brother Xiaotian. After taking it, you should be able to enter the Qi and Blood Realm."

Xiao Tian was somewhat flattered when he took the pill and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Lu, what kind of pill is this?"

"It's called Blood-Replenishing and Qi-Invigorating Pill."

Xiaotian was immediately shocked.

Because he had heard Master Ma mention the elixir that Lu Qing mentioned.

It is said that this is one of the best auxiliary elixirs in the Qi and Blood Realm.

Each one is worth a lot of money.

Xiaotian still remembers the regret on Master Ma’s face when he first mentioned this kind of elixir.

It is said that even he, when he was in the Qi and Blood Realm, only obtained three blood-replenishing and Qi-tonifying pills for his cultivation.

If he could get more support from his family, he probably wouldn't have to spend so much time training his qi and blood. He has only just entered the tendons and bones stage until now.

Even Master Ma, who was highly regarded by the family, only received three blood-replenishing and Qi-tonifying pills to assist his practice when he was at the Qi and Blood stage.

And now, I actually have the chance to get one.

Xiaotian suddenly became very nervous.

Of course, he did not doubt the authenticity of the pill.

With Lu Qing's identity and cultivation, there was no need to deceive him about such a thing.

He just felt that such a precious elixir was not something that a person of low status like him could get his hands on.

"Mr. Lu, I can't accept such a precious elixir." Xiaotian said hurriedly.

"It's okay, just take it. I'm afraid Master Ma won't be able to come back for a while. If you want to manage the market, you may not be able to control the situation with your current strength. You need to enter the Qi and Blood Realm as soon as possible, so that you can manage the market for Master Ma."

Xiaotian’s martial arts are good, but it may not be enough for him to manage a large village with just this.

Not to mention that his colleagues may not necessarily obey him.

Even some country thugs are strong and powerful.

If ordinary people practicing martial arts cannot enter the Qi and Blood realm and comprehend the power of Qi and Blood, no matter how hard they practice, they may not be able to defeat many enemies at once.

If you encounter those who have no moral principles and rush forward in a rush, you will probably end up in a disaster.

Lu Qing usually stays at home and rarely goes out, and never travels far except going into the mountains to collect herbs.

The market is an important place for him to obtain daily necessities, and he doesn't want it to become chaotic.

So it is good for Xiaotian if he can manage Daji well.

Anyway, his Qi and Blood realm is now perfect, so the Blood and Qi Replenishing Pills are no longer of much use to him.

It’s okay to take one as a favor.

"Mr. Lu..."

Xiaotian wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Okay, no need to nag." Lu Qing said with a smile, "I am also a martial artist, so I naturally know the difficulties of practicing. This can be considered as an opportunity for you, so there is no need to refuse."

Xiaotian paused.

I thought, if your terrifying cultivation speed is still considered difficult, then what should we, the minions, be called?

However, he also knew that people like Lu Qing were determined and domineering.

Now that things have come to this, if he still refuses, it would be a clear lack of respect.

Without giving Lu Qing face, Xiaotian would not dare to do such a thing no matter how brave he was.

So he could only say gratefully: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Lu."

Seeing Xiao Tian carefully putting away the blood-replenishing and qi-boosting pill, Lu Qing shook his head.

I now understand a little bit why he has never been able to enter the Qi and Blood Realm.

Although Xiaotian is young, perhaps because he has served so many people, he is used to doing everything with humility, care and caution.

This is not a bad thing.

But as a martial artist, you still need some courage, otherwise how can you go against the flow on the road of martial arts.

Xiaotian lacked this little bit of courage, so he could not comprehend the mystery of the connection between Qi and blood, and could not enter the realm of Qi and blood.

Thinking of this, Lu Qing suddenly said: "Brother Xiaotian, you don't have to put away this blood-replenishing and qi-replenishing pill. Just take it here."

"Take it here?" Xiaotian was surprised.

"That's right. I happen to be free now and can protect you." Lu Qing said.

Xiaotian hesitated suddenly.

In his opinion, how could such a precious pill as the Blood-Replenishing and Qi-Invigorating Pill be swallowed so casually?

At the very least, you should take a bath, change your clothes, regulate your breath, and adjust all the conditions of your body to the best before taking it.

In this way, the medicinal power can be better refined and no waste can be caused.

But he didn't dare to disobey Lu Qing's words, so after hesitating for a moment, he swallowed the pill.

After taking the pill, Xiaotian quickly felt a medicinal power emerging from his body.

The potency of the medicine was so strong and powerful that it was completely beyond Xiaotian's expectations and caught him off guard.

Just when he didn't know what to do, Lu Qing suddenly shouted, "Hurry up and practice, and refine the medicinal power!"

Xiaotian was startled and quickly got into position and started practicing a set of boxing techniques.

That was a set of Qi and Blood Realm boxing techniques taught to him by Master Ma, and he had been practicing it for many years.

Lu Qing watched Xiaotian practice boxing for a while and nodded with some satisfaction.

Although this boxing style is not as mysterious as the health-preserving boxing, Xiaotian's advantage lies in his proficiency in practicing it.

If nothing unexpected happens, Xiaotian will be able to enter the Qi and Blood realm soon.

However, things in this world are often so unexpected.

Lu Qing originally thought that with the help of the blood-replenishing and qi-invigorating pill, Xiaotian should be able to easily enter the Qi and Blood realm.

But he waited for a long time, and saw Xiaotian practicing boxing for a long time, but he just couldn't take that step.

Seeing that his body was filled with heat and sweat, if he continued like this, not only would the efficacy of the blood-replenishing and qi-invigorating pills be exhausted, he would probably be seriously injured as well.

Lu Qing immediately drew out the sword from behind him, and a murderous intent enveloped Xiaotian, and he slashed at him with the sword.

"Xiaotian, look at the knife!"

When Xiaotian heard this, he subconsciously looked over here and was frightened.
