Chapter 50: Chapter 48: Body Refining Seventh Layer

Snow Moon Square.

Second floor.

Zhou Chen, carefree and flamboyant, with his arm wrapped around Sister Hong’s plump waist, sat boldly across from the man in white, as if unaware that this was a terrifying expert he had never encountered before.

"Brother, you don’t seem like a local. Are you just passing through or doing business?"

Zhou Chen eyed the man in white, flanked by two beauties. His fair, slender hands were quite restless, showing no trace of a strong demeanor.

"Why do you say that?"

The man in white chuckled, signaling the beauty sitting on his leg to pour wine for Zhou Chen.

Qiuxiang gracefully lifted the wine pot and poured wine for Zhou Chen.

"You have an extraordinary aura, clearly not an ordinary person. Although I’ve only recently arrived in Qinghe City, someone like you must be known!"

Zhou Chen raised his wine glass but didn’t drink; he played with it in his hand and continued:

"Moreover, you look like a regular at the brothel, yet I’ve been here every day except yesterday and have never seen you!"

"So, ten to one, you’re not a local in Qinghe!"

"Correct!"

The man in white smiled, "My surname is Li, passing through here to experience the customs of Qinghe City. I happened to hear about your romantic exploits and couldn’t resist inviting you over!"

"So it’s Brother Li."

Zhou Chen became even more certain of his guess; this person was likely the Master of Divine Arrow Peak, Li Changfeng.

"Seems Brother Li is a fellow traveler!"

Zhou Chen laughed heartily and said boldly:

"A meeting is fate. Brother Li, now that you’ve come to Qinghe City, I should play the host. Enjoy yourself, and it’s all on me!"

With that, Zhou Chen took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into Sister Hong’s bosom:

"Remember, I’m treating. If it’s not enough, come find me!"

"Master Zhou, rest assured. I’ll certainly entertain Master Li well!"

Sister Hong’s smile grew wider, patting her ample chest as she replied quickly.

"Master, you’ve arrived!"

Miaotong and Miao Yu came together, and Sister Hong took the chance to slip out of Zhou Chen’s embrace. The two of them sat on either side of Zhou Chen, soft and tender.

"Brother Zhou is indeed generous, spending lavishly!"

Li Changfeng gave Zhou Chen a meaningful look, secretly guessing whether Zhou Chen had recognized him.

But it didn’t seem like it.

"Brother Li, what are you saying? Gold and silver are mundane; they only have value if used. What good is keeping them?"

Zhou Chen felt no regret, as at most it was just a few dozen taels of silver.

As the saying goes, there are four great bonds in life.

We’ve shared the same window.

We’ve frequented the brothel.

Whether or not this person is Li Changfeng, he is surely a thick leg to hold onto. Building a relationship first is essential.

The two toasted back and forth, with bird-like whispers in their embraces.

The aroma of wine, makeup, maiden fragrance, and hormones mixed together, most readily stirred the deepest primitive desires.

Zhou Chen refrained from probing the other’s identity; since the other didn’t reveal it, Zhou Chen wouldn’t ask, nor discuss matters of state and righteousness but talked only of romance, gossip, and strange tales.

Li Changfeng, well-traveled and knowledgeable, broadened Zhou Chen’s horizons, letting him learn much about the outside world.

The two talked happily, regretting meeting so late.

"I observe Brother Zhou’s long arms and forceful waist, a simian arm and wasp waist, an excellent talent for archery!"

Li Changfeng examined Zhou Chen’s physique, speaking meaningfully.

"Master Li is truly perceptive!"

Miaotong’s tender, shapely figure softly clung to Zhou Chen, laughing sweetly:

"Master Zhou is indeed our county’s top archer; even the County Captain praises him highly!"

"I think Brother Zhou is not only the county’s top archer; he might be Qinghe County’s top archer!"

Li Changfeng laughed.

Zhou Chen’s heart skipped a beat, unsure whether Li Changfeng was testing him or meant something else.

Since he wasn’t certain, to be safe, Zhou Chen laughed heartily, grabbing a handful on Miaotong, saying:

"Brother Li jests, Qinghe County is full of hidden talents; how could I claim to be the top archer?"

"There was recently a Divine Archer who shot dead Bai Gongfeng of the Salt Gang, who was Sixth-Layer Qi Refining, and now the Salt Gang is still hunting him!"

"But I believe that someday, I’ll be able to become Qinghe County’s top archer and even Great Qian’s top archer, just like Arrow God Li Changfeng!"

Li Changfeng’s eyes flickered, unsure if Zhou Chen had recognized him and was deliberately flattering, but inwardly he felt quite pleased.

He smiled and said:

"Brother Zhou dreams grandly. Great Qian is full of hidden talents and capable individuals; even Li Changfeng wouldn’t dare claim to be Great Qian’s top archer!"

"People must have dreams!"

Zhou Chen lifted his head, looking toward the distance at a forty-five-degree angle:

"What’s a person without dreams but a salted fish?"

"True indeed!"

Li Changfeng raised his wine glass, smiling:

"Let us drink to the fullest!"

"Cheers!"

Zhou Chen raised his wine glass, clinked it with Li Changfeng’s, and drank it all down.

He leaned forward toward Li Changfeng, face full of mystery, saying:

"Brother Li, to be honest, I’ve been practicing archery since childhood. The moment I grip the arrow, I know I’m destined to be an Arrow God!"

Li Changfeng’s heart stirred, "Could this kid have recognized me, trying to expose his innate ability so I might take him as a disciple?"

He suddenly became interested, listening closely.

Miaotong, Miao Yu, Qiuxiang, and others all looked curious, full of anticipation.

"I’ve practiced archery since I was five, mastered it by seven, perfected it by ten, and achieved complete mastery by fifteen. Not only do my arrows never miss, hitting the target at hundred paces, but I also have an extraordinary talent!"

"What talent?"

"My archery speed is super fast!"

Zhou Chen raised his right hand, gripping his fingers:

"Because my hand speed is super fast!"

Li Changfeng: "..."

I’ve gone to the trouble of getting prepared, and this is what you tell me?

"What? Brother Li doesn’t believe?"

Looking at Zhou Chen’s expression, Zhou Chen pointed at Miaotong and Miao Yu, and directly said:

"Ask them if I’m lying or not!"

Miaotong and Miao Yu’s legs tightened, their faces blushing as they recalled the terror ruled by Zhou Chen’s Lu Shan’s Claw.

It’s truly a love-hate relationship.

"Master’s hand speed is indeed unparalleled!"

Miao Yu said softly and shyly.

Li Changfeng stared at Zhou Chen in a daze; even he couldn’t tell how much truth and how much falsehood there was in Zhou Chen’s words.

While Miaotong and the others only thought Zhou Chen was bragging.

Actually, Zhou Chen was indeed bragging.

But not entirely. He had the Thunder Light Wishing Hand Divine Techniques, which indeed gave a great bonus to archery, and his hand speed was super fast.

In the same realm, others might only shoot one arrow, but he could shoot at least four or five arrows.

"Brother Zhou is really an interesting person!"

Li Changfeng laughed, and after chatting with Zhou Chen for a while, they each left with a beauty in their arms.

Zhou Chen was not restrained, and as usual, he took on ten at once.

As night fell, the moonlight was like water.

Zhou Chen adjusted his belt and left Snow Moon Square, his face glowing with satisfaction.

"Interesting!"

Li Changfeng, who somehow appeared on a rooftop, stood with his hands behind his back, watching Zhou Chen leisurely go home, a slight smile on his lips.

"Because I let you mooch this time!"

A cold voice rang out, and at some point, a woman in black appeared beside Li Changfeng.

The woman was tall with a slender waist, ample chest, and curvy hips, carrying a pitch-black bow, her presence ghostly, exuding an unapproachable coldness.

"How dare you talk to your master like that!"

Li Changfeng raised an eyebrow and scolded:

"Do I look like that kind of person?"

Li Changhen gave Li Changfeng a disdainful look; you’re not just like, you are one.

"Is he really the archer who killed Bai Ruyun?"

Li Changhen looked at Zhou Chen’s back; no matter how she looked, he didn’t seem that formidable.

No, he’s quite formidable at playing with women.

I’ve heard he can take on ten!

"Almost certainly yes."

Li Changfeng didn’t give a full answer, but after spending so much time with Zhou Chen today, he was sure Zhou Chen had practiced the Yi Arrow Skill and achieved considerable mastery.

Although Zhou Chen hid it well.

But who was he?

He was a super expert who had practiced Yi Arrow Skill for decades; Zhou Chen might fool others, but he couldn’t fool him.

"So when will you take him in?"

Li Changhen knew she’d have a new junior brother soon.

"I’ll observe him a few more days!"

Li Changfeng shook his head while also investigating Zhou Chen’s details.

As his direct disciple, one must be cautious.

"It seems like someone is spying on me. It’s probably Li Lang, or should I say Li Changfeng..."

Zhou Chen was walking down the street, thinking to himself.

Li Lang was the name the other party used while drinking; Zhou Chen reckoned it was almost certainly fake.

He didn’t pay it much attention, as Zhou Chen remained vigilant as usual.

He climbed into Qin Hongyu’s bed, a thread of his consciousness controlling his body to study the Wind and Moon Secret Record with Qin Hongyu, while his soul entered the Wind and Moon Treasure Mirror to study with Liu Ruyi.

At that moment, Ji Fengxia was also awake.

Like Liu Ruyi, she had comprehended a powerful skill, the Nine Revolutions Nirvana Skill.

She looked at the two studying the Wind and Moon Secret Record, gave a charming smile, and joined in.

"You all play, I’m leaving!"

Liu Ruyi tried to escape but was caught by Ji Fengxia.

In the end.

Zhou Chen succeeded after all.

Hehe!

And so the night quietly passed.

Zhou Chen found his Wind and Moon Points surged; this night, with the blessings of Qin Hongyu, Ji Fengxia, and Liu Ruyi, his Wind and Moon Points increased by six thousand, even more impressive than his ten at Snow Moon Square.

"Indeed, quality is key!"

Zhou Chen thought to himself, and adding the previously accumulated Wind and Moon Points, he broke the fourteen thousand mark again.

Zhou Chen was gleeful, feeling elated.

Meanwhile, at the Salt Gang’s Qinghe Branch, Bai Guinong and Wang Kang’an, who hadn’t slept all night, had bloodshot and red-rimmed eyes, looking sullen.

The perpetrator did not appear again.

They probably had no hope.

But they still wanted to struggle a bit more, so Bai Guinong found a woman to disguise her as Liu Ruyi and had Wang Kang’an escort her outside the city for execution.

Unfortunately, it still didn’t lure Zhou Chen out.

For three consecutive days.

Except for clocking in at the government office, Zhou Chen mostly stayed at home, researching the Wind and Moon Secret Record with Qin Hongyu and the others, causing his Wind and Moon Points to surge past thirty-six thousand.

"Yi Arrow Skill, add points!"

Zhou Chen was filled with excitement and anticipation.

By consuming thirty-two thousand Wind and Moon Points, it felt as if Zhou Chen had practiced for ten years, his blood completely revitalized and reached its utmost strength.

Pop!

It was as if a bottleneck was broken inside his body, and Zhou Chen’s exceedingly strong blood essence condensed, birthing strands of Inner Qi within.

These strands of Inner Qi surged into his Middle Dantian, coiling there as their home, neither interfering with the Magical Power swirling in his Lower Dantian, but both nourishing Zhou Chen’s entire body.

As the Inner Qi emerged, an unprecedented feeling of strength overwhelmed him.

"Body Refining Seventh Layer!"
