Chapter 430 - 430: Benefactor!
Opening the heavy private room door, Jiang Ziqiu stepped forward and shouted to the people in the hall below: "Ladies and Gentlemen! Here is a man who claims to have been to the Ancient City, so he seeks to consult with Master Zheng to see if it's true!"
The private room on the second floor is right by the railing, below which is the hall.
Jiang Ziqiu sneered inwardly.
Having him boast in front of so many onlookers, he would definitely feel so embarrassed he'd want to crawl into a hole.
Those present are all recluses of the Hidden World.
How can a mere Inner Strength Martial Apprentice put on such airs?
At this moment.
People turned their attention to Jiang Ziqiu and the entrance of the private room.
Inside the private room, Dong Haimei frowned unhappily: "Are you crazy? Don't you know he has 'enemies' here and it's inconvenient for him to show his face?"
"There's no way, I just couldn't stand the way he was bragging; he forced my hand."
Jiang Ziqiu spread his hands.
He looked at Qin Feng.
Qin Feng felt a headache coming on.
He shouldn't have made a bet with this fool.
Appearing in front of so many people, what if he was recognized by the boss?
Seeing Qin Feng's worried expression, Jiang Ziqiu was even more convinced that he was bluffing and said, "What, afraid of being exposed by Master Zheng and don't dare to come out? How about this, should we raise the stakes? You come out, and if I lose, I will kneel and admit my wrongs on the spot, calling you big brother, how about that?"
"... "
Qin Feng sighed.
At this point, he had no choice but to show himself.
He just hoped the proprietress and her daughter were not in the store.
Qin Feng put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a tissue, rinsed it out, and then got up to leave the private room.
He came up to the railing at the entrance.
Jiang Ziqiu looked up, laughed excitedly, and then called down to Zheng Aotian in the hall: "Master Zheng, did he also visit the Ancient City?"
"Hahahaha..."
Before Zheng Aotian could respond, everyone else couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Many here were at the Half-step Master Realm, and at the very least, they were military generals; a few were even Grandmasters.
One glance was enough to see that Qin Feng was just a Spiritual Internal Disciple.
There were thirty Grandmasters in the Ancient City, and only Zheng Aotian was left alive; how could he, a mere Inner Strength Disciple, have possibly gone there?
Jiang Ziqiu laughed even harder and said to Qin Feng, "This time, let's see how you pretend!"
However.
He had just finished speaking.
Everyone suddenly heard a "thump" sound!
Turning their heads,
They were shocked to see Zheng Aotian on his knees, holding his fists in respect, addressing Qin Feng: "Benefactor—!!"
What?!
Everyone was stunned.
He, a Grandmaster, a sect leader, was actually kneeling to Qin Feng!
And even calling him… benefactor?!
"It is so good to see my benefactor again!"
Always read at the source—*.
Zheng Aotian said again.
Seeing so many people looking bewildered at him, he explained with a smile: "Didn't I say earlier that the emergence of a heaven-sent genius stopped us from being annihilated too quickly, and led us to storm out of there? Yes, it was this benefactor."
"..."
Everyone then uniformly turned their gazes towards Qin Feng, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Jiang Ziqiu's jaw nearly hit the ground.
So, it turns out, not only had Qin Feng been to the Ancient City.
He was also Zheng Aotian's lifesaver!
He has lost terribly this time…
"Alright."
Qin Feng didn't want to stay here too long, telling Zheng Aotian: "I'm going to rest; don't bother me unless it's important, I'm very tired."
Saying this,
He headed towards the stairs to the third floor.
Watching his departing figure, Jiang Ziqiu stood there speechlessly, unable to utter a word.
He suddenly realized that compared to Qin Feng, he was like an ant.
Qin Feng didn't even ask for him to fulfill the promise of kneeling and calling him brother, nor did he ask him to leave; he completely ignored him as if he was the air itself.
Insignificant.
In his eyes, he was too insignificant…
Night.
Lin Xue'er is still deep in slumber.
There are two beds in the room. Qin Feng sits cross-legged on the other bed, practicing cultivation.
He now possesses hundreds of Blood Bodhis, which can be used to enhance his cultivation.
He had once heard from a retired monk in Dragon and Tiger Village.
Generally, people with poor aptitude often experience Deviation when consuming Blood Bodhi.
Only those with good aptitude can suppress its power.
This shows just how immense the power contained within it is.
Qin Feng certainly does not consider himself to have poor aptitude, so he decides to try consuming it.
A Blood Bodhi enters his mouth and quickly dissolves.
Qin Feng immediately closes his eyes, circulates his breath, and begins to refine the power of the Blood Bodhi.
Indeed!
The power of the Blood Bodhi is beyond his imagination!
His body immediately turns fiery red, faintly glowing red.
Fortunately, his aptitude is excellent, allowing him to refine it quickly.
Two hours later.
The power refined from the Blood Bodhi converges into the Qi Sea at his Dantian.
Qin Feng ends his practice and exhales a long, turbid breath.
"Very strong!"
He opens his eyes and cannot help but exclaim.
He is impressed not only by the power contained within the Blood Bodhi but also by his Qi Sea at the Dantian!
Logically speaking.
The power of this single Blood Bodhi could elevate someone from a martial master to a military general.
But him.
His Qi Sea is like a vast ocean, and even the Blood Bodhi cannot fill it up; he is still at the lowest tier as an Inner Strength Martial Disciple.
"At this rate, I wonder how long it will take to break through."
Qin Feng sighs.
Previously, he wasn't so eager about cultivation.
Because even without cultivation, with his bloodline and the skills he acquired over the years, he could still be very strong.
However.
After encountering the Fire Qilin, he earnestly wished to become stronger from the bottom of his heart.
The Kirin Divine Beast is something of legends.
Thus.
It implied that he might encounter other legendary creatures in the future, where relying solely on bloodline power would be inadequate.
That is why he thought of practicing cultivation.
Next.
He simply continues to refine Blood Bodhi.
Luckily, his bloodline is extraordinary compared to ordinary people, who would need a long time to refine another after refining one.
But he is different.
That night, he refines a total of seven or eight!
Until the next morning, he slowly ends his practice.
Having refined Blood Bodhi for an entire night, he finally feels the change in his Qi Sea at the Dantian.
He feels a surge in strength.
The strength of a punch from an ordinary Inner Strength Martial Disciple could at most kill a cow.
But him.
He feels that just using his inner strength, he could shatter rocks with one punch!
"Not bad, I believe I can make a breakthrough after some time,"
he mutters as he gets up.
At this moment.
He suddenly hears some sneaky whispering outside, but pays no mind to it and goes to check on Lin Xue'er.
Outside the corridor.
A group of people, carrying a sack, quietly walk outside.
It is the very same group led by One-eyed Dragon who had a grudge against Qin Feng.
The one carrying the sack accidentally bumps into One-eyed Dragon up front. In a hushed angry voice, One-eyed Dragon says: "Damn it, are you blind? Be careful! Don't wake others up! Especially that meddlesome Old Drunkard! This chick seems to know the Old Drunkard."
"Yes, yes..."
The group of people silently leave the Wealth God Inn and head towards the back of Shatuo Mountain…
