Since the occurrence of the incident was not under the jurisdiction of Li Xuan and his group, they didn’t need to handle the aftermath. They were dismissed by Jiang Hanyun very early on.
On the way back, Li Xuan who sat on the back of the Earth Dragon was not very obedient. His hands were continuously making various strange gestures. If someone from the Li Family with sincerity was present, they would be able to recognize that these were actually various secret techniques of the Li Family, such as the Frozen Blade, Cold Breath Fierce Palm, Huandian Knife, and Dongxuan Jingshenzhi, all being freely demonstrated by Li Xuan’s hand gestures.
Zhang Yue was always attentively watching, his eyebrows furrowed.
Actually, when they had rushed over earlier, Li Xuan had been doing the same thing. However, Zhang Yue hadn’t paid much attention at that time, thinking that his friend was just acting weird.
But when he observed carefully at this moment, he realized something was wrong. He could actually see a strange rhythm in Li Xuan’s child-like hand gestures—like flowing clouds and water, freely flowing, unrestrained, and showing an amazing variety.
It was about halfway through before Zhang Yue abruptly woke up and shouted, “It’s rhythm! Qianzhi has actually grasped the rhythm!”
“What do you mean by rhythm?” Peng Fulai felt a pain in his eardrums, he looked at Zhang Yue discontentedly, “Why are you yelling?”
“It’s the rhythm!” Zhang Yue pointed at Li Xuan incoherently, “Fulai, you look carefully.”
“Martial rhythm!” Yue Qianqian added, “He is trying to say that Li Xuan’s martial arts have acquired a rhythm of their own.”
Peng Fulai’s face slightly hardened as he focused, then his eyes gradually revealed a look of astonishment.
He knew that for any martial cultivator, as long as they can first glimpse the door to Martial Law and grasp a certain martial principle, their techniques and movements will have a unique rhythm. This indicates that the martial cultivator has made initial steps into martial arts, achieving samadhi.
How could this be? Li Xuan was notoriously the laziest in their group when it came to martial practice.
“How did he grasp the martial rhythm?” Zhang Yue was bewildered, “I’ve known him since we were young and till now, I’ve only seen him practice martial arts twice. Both times it was Earl Chengyi who forced him during his visits home.”
Zhang Yue felt the extreme injustice of the world. It was abhorrent! He, a four-level martial cultivator, was only just touching the threshold of ‘rhythm’.
Yue Qianqian shook her head, “I don’t know about the past, but recently he has been very diligent. Whenever he has spare time these days, he either practices his family’s martial arts or goes to the book collection building to read.”
She glanced at Zhang Yue and the others, “When you guys left work early to hang out in the brothel, he was practicing martial arts in the courtyard.”
Ma Chenggong seemed to have plans to establish their group, a few days ago he had specifically allocated a small courtyard for their daily use.
Zhang Yue and Peng Fulai exchanged a look. At that moment, their feelings were complicated.
They had always ghosted around together, squandered their youth together, but today they found that their self-proclaimed comrade had already covertly gotten ahead, starting to rush down the path of life.
This also gave them a sense of urgency and anxiety. Their buddy seems to be moving farther away from them, so should they continue to idle away their time?
When they were about to reach the city gate, Zhang Yue couldn’t help but pull Li Xuan, who was immersed in martial arts, out of his reverie: “Qianzhi, you have grasped the martial rhythm now, right? How exactly did you train?”
Li Xuan looked at him and then laughingly said, “Don’t you know? I’ve recently reformed and started afresh. But the reason why I was able to understand the martial rhythm was due to my old man’s trick. A quick fix, overnight.”
But exactly what the method is, there’s no need to mention that, it’s the Li Family’s secret.
After using it once, Li Xuan knew that the long knife left by their ancestors was not merely for aiding in martial arts research. It might well be a clan treasure, capable of proving its value in times of crisis for the family. Therefore his father, Earl Chengyi, did not agree to let him use it a second time under any circumstances.
Hearing the words, Zhang Yue’s expression also became somewhat relieved. It was not that he was not diligent enough but rather that this kid had cheated. The deep and profound inheritance of the sincere Li Family was something others could only envy.
“Then what about the movement technique you used today? It’s quite different from your family’s Land Ascension Technique.”
Li Xuan told him the whole story: “That was the ‘Unsettling Divine Thunder,’ I learned it from the book collection building of the Liudao Division.”
The technique that his ancestor had used four days ago was indeed the Land Ascension Technique, his movement changing like real thunderbolts, the moves were swift and unpredictable, the location of landing point was impossible to measure.
But Earl Chengyi’s mansion did not have the inheritance of ‘Unsettling Divine Thunder.’ Li Xuan had to learn it within the Liudao Division.
The book could be found on the seventh level of the book collection building of Liudao Division. But the cunning Liudao Division only put the method of Zhenyuan operation and visualization chart on this level; the key mantra could only be exchanged with his merits.
Li Xuan’s current accumulated merits could only be exchanged for the first half of the Unsettling Divine Thunder.
And if he wanted to bring home the complete ‘Unsettling Divine Thunder’ to become the Li Family’s exclusive skill, it would cost ten times as much merit to exchange all the pictures and visualization charts from the book collection building, and still, they were only imitative versions.
“Unsettling Divine Thunder? I’ve heard of it, your family’s ancestor used it to dominate Jiangnan.”
Zhang Yue fell into deep thought: “So you are now, practicing both ice and thunder? Qianzhi, isn’t this a bit too much? Your family’s Cold Power is too pure, too extreme, even dual cultivation of ice and fire is difficult.”
“It is necessary to practice.”
After finishing this sentence, Li Xuan saw the city gate clearly ahead. He immediately turned his horse’s head and ran in the direction of the north: “You guys go back first, I have something to do outside the city tonight, I won’t go back to the city.”
He warned Zhang Yue and Peng Fulai again: “Recently, the wind in the city is not right, I advise you guys better control your lower bodies, will you die if you don’t go to the brothel or gambling house for a day or two? Don’t cause trouble!”
He knew these two guys would probably take this as a breeze blowing past their ears, but Li Xuan believed that as their superior and friend, he had to say these words.
Zhang Yue waved at him, his expression was quite impatient. Li Xuan could only shake his head, guiding the Earth Dragon underneath him to rush towards the direction of the north Yangtze River.
About a moment later, he arrived at a very simple pier to the north.
Li Xuan tied his mount to a nearby willow tree, then looked around searching for something.
In the next instant, a hand was placed on his shoulder: “Stop looking, we’re right here.”
It was a familiar voice, so Li Xuan only paused for a moment and looked back, only to see two figures wearing black tights, draped in cloaks of the same color, and wearing bamboo hats, standing behind him.
Li Xuan couldn’t help but laugh: “Why are you guys dressed up so sneakily? Are you going to do something unspeakable?”
The two behind him were his father Li Chengji and his elder brother Li Yan.
The reason he came here today was for something Li Chengji had previously mentioned, that they would need his help.
He will have two days off tomorrow, just enough time to get this done.
