After studying for a long time, Qin Xuan finally found a way to read ancient books.

That is, if you place your finger on a page of an ancient book and do not move it, the ancient book will impatiently read the text on that page aloud.

Using this method, Qin Xuan directly read the entire introduction on the first page.

It was at this time that he finally understood what the so-called body-refining chapter in the ancient books was.

It turns out that humans can absorb spiritual energy and practice to become immortals.

The first step in embarking on the path of cultivation is to temper the body and increase physical strength.

Although this ancient book is not a cultivation method that can make people become immortal directly, it is an extremely perfect introductory chapter on body training.

It records many secret methods and prescriptions for tempering the body. As long as you can practice well according to them, you will be able to temper yourself and break through the limits of the human body in the future.

After a brief hesitation, Qin Xuan immediately decided to temper his body according to the methods described in ancient books.

There are two reasons.

First, of course, it was driven by curiosity.

Qin Xuan had never heard of anyone being able to break through the limits of the human body, so he also wanted to see if he could become a superman if he practiced according to the methods described in the book.

As for the second reason, it is naturally a middle-aged young man's infinite yearning for immortals.

After all, he just turned 25 this year, and those illusory imaginations in his heart have not been completely erased.

Wanting to become an immortal and live forever is a very normal thing.

After reading through the entire content, Qin Xuan immediately began to practice body training according to the postures in the ancient book.

These movements are very twisted, and some are even more difficult than yoga.

Having not exercised for many years, he used all his strength to finally put every part of his body in the position where it should be.

As time passed, Qin Xuan could clearly feel that every part of his body was burning fiercely.

This feeling was extremely painful, but it also gave him a strange sense of exhilaration.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes.

Qin Xuan’s first training session was officially declared over only when his clothes were completely soaked with sweat.

Feeling endless exhaustion, he couldn't help but swear.

"Damn, this is too exhausting!"

"It's only been a few minutes, but I feel like I've been running for dozens of kilometers!"

"No wonder the further you progress, the more you need specialized herbs to assist you!"

Lying in a spread-eagle position in the center of the basement, Qin Xuan was tired and hungry.

In a daze, only one thought gradually emerged in his mind, which was: have a big meal and then have a good sleep.

Time passed quickly during the hard practice.

It has to be said that the training methods in the Body Refining Chapter are indeed very effective for Qin Xuan now.

After just three days, the muscles that had disappeared due to lack of exercise began to reappear.

The fat accumulated in the abdomen was completely gone, and even the clothes that had originally fit well now felt tight.

"Brother, I sold all your stuff for a total of 48.5 million dragon coins."

"I've transferred the money to your card. Remember to come early this afternoon. Otherwise, if you are late, the organizer will not let you in."

Before going out to buy clothes, Qin Xuan received a call from Chen Zhongping.

It was not until the other party reminded him that he suddenly remembered.

Today is the day when the Fang family holds an auction!

Fortunately, the auction will not officially start until three in the afternoon, so I still have plenty of time to go to the mall and buy some suitable clothes.

After buying a few sets of daily clothes and a high-end dress at Yida, Qin Xuan drove to Jiangcheng Lijing Hotel, which belonged to the Fang family.

This is one of the few five-star hotels in Jiangcheng, and its floor area alone is over 20,000 square meters.

There is a huge fountain at the entrance, which, combined with the upright gate and pure gold tones, makes the entire hotel look luxurious.

Since he didn't have an invitation, Qin Xuan himself couldn't enter the auction venue.

There was no choice but to lean against the door leisurely, playing with his phone, waiting for Chen and Ye to arrive.

Suddenly, a familiar female voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

It was sharp and piercing, and you could tell it was from that "old woman" Liu Ying.

"Oh, it's Qin Xuan!"

"Didn't you say a few days ago that you would come to the company to settle accounts with me? Why are you now secretly running off to a five-star hotel to work as a waiter?"

Liu Ying's voice made Qin Xuan frown immediately.

Just two days ago, he received a notice from the Labor Bureau.

My labor arbitration application was rejected because it did not meet the arbitration standards.

It clearly meets the requirements, but it is not accepted. Qin Xuan would never believe that Liu Ying and others were not behind this.

"Did Hu Hao use his connections behind the scenes at the Labor Bureau?"

Without engaging in an argument with Liu Ying, Qin Xuan went straight to the point.

Liu Ying chuckled and looked at Qin Xuan as if he was looking at a fool.

"Stop being so sentimental here."

"Will Mr. Hu use his connections for you?"

"You don't deserve it!"

"For such a small matter, Mr. Hu doesn't even need to speak up in person. There are plenty of people who will handle it for him."

"Just because you are a little rich second generation, you want to fight him?"

"Just take a piss and look at yourself first!"

Just as Qin Xuan was about to speak, he saw a familiar figure coming to Liu Ying.

Speak of the devil, and here he appears. This figure is none other than Qin Xuan’s former boss, the chairman of Hu Lai Network, Hu Hao.

"Manager Liu, guess what I saw in the garage?"

He put his mouth close to Liu Ying's ear and whispered a few words.

Then the two smiled at each other, without any attempt to hide their ambiguous feelings.

"Eh? Who is this?"

The smile faded, and Hu Hao's gaze finally shifted to Qin Xuan who was standing beside him.

He just felt that the man in front of him seemed a little familiar, but the impression was very vague, and he couldn't think of the other person's specific identity for a while.

Seeing this, Liu Ying knew it was his turn to take the stage.

She took Hu Hao's arm and spoke softly, her delicate appearance was completely different from her previous sarcastic and harsh appearance.

"Boss Hu, you forgot, this is Qin Xuan who you fired a few days ago."

"You have only seen his picture, but not the real person, so you can't remember him for the moment."

When Qin Xuan's name was mentioned, Hu Hao instantly understood, "Oh~ Who did I think it was?"

"It turns out to be the young master Qin Xuan whom I fired!"

"I was wondering why I saw a very sexy purple Porsche in the garage. It turns out that's your car~"

"But Mr. Qin, why are you just standing outside and not going in?"

"How hot is it outside?"

"Don't you have this?"

As he spoke, he took out a red invitation from his bag and waved it in front of Qin Xuan.

"But it is also true that the Fang family is one of the most powerful families in Jiangcheng. With your status, you are not worthy of their invitation."

"In that case, you can just stay outside in the sun. I have to go in and enjoy the air conditioning."

Without giving Qin Xuan a chance to speak, Hu Hao took Liu Ying into the main venue.

Looking at the two men's annoying backs, Qin Xuan really wanted to rush up and punch them each.

However, he had promised Chen Zhongping that he would appraise the items for them. If the owner refused to enter because of this, it would be a waste of time.
