Honey, you didn't really drugged me, did you?-Chapter 165 - 110 Muscle Relaxing Pill, Advancing to Willow Tendon Realm_6

But there just weren’t enough to sell every day, all one could say was that a beauty’s economy is boundless.

Thinking of this, Chen Jie returned home to find his wife and Daisy already awake.

Upon seeing the large steamed buns, Daisy immediately pounced on them, and watching Daisy eat so sweetly, Chen Jie felt very happy.

After eating his fill, Chen Jie took a trip to the White Tiger Hall.

The White Tiger Hall was preparing for a banquet, and Chen Jie ran into Feng Xuan. Chen Jie asked, "Big brother, is there anything I can help with?"

Feng Xuan replied, "Mm, no need, you rest well these next couple days. Don’t worry, the adoptive father has arranged everything for you and Sixth Brother, you just need to show up on the day of the banquet."

"Hmm? Sixth Brother?"

Chen Jie was confused.

"Where did this Sixth Brother come from?"

Feng Xuan explained, "You didn’t know? This time, the adoptive father is preparing to acknowledge two adoptive sons, one is you, and the other is Sixth Brother."

"Who is Sixth Brother?"

As Chen Jie inquired, Feng Xuan was about to answer, "Zhou..."

"Brother Jiu Si!"

Before Feng Xuan could finish naming Sixth Brother, they saw Peng Shizhong accompanied by an old man and a young man coming out from a distance.

Upon seeing the young man, both Chen Jie and Xiao Hu were stunned: "Old Zhou!"

"Haha, it’s me."

Zhou Chu was very happy, but at that moment, the old man beside him coughed softly.

Zhou Chu immediately put on a serious expression. Chen Jie looked over and hurriedly bowed in greeting, "I’ve seen Elder Sun before."

And who might this be, none other than the old escort leader Sun Bu’er of the Shunfeng Escort Agency.

The same one who officiated the Village Chief’s great battle and had a good relationship with Du Dajin of the Jiangnan Dragon Gate Escort Agency.

Sun Bu’er smiled and said, "Chen Jiusi, I’ve heard about you. Quite the young hero, Sect Master Peng has found himself a Qilin’er. Not like my son-in-law; Sect Master Peng is going to have to put in more effort in the future."

At these words, Peng Shizhong laughed and said, "Haha, Zhou Chu is also of good nature and a promising young talent."

Upon hearing this, both Chen Jie and Zhou Chu paused. Wasn’t praising someone as good-natured the same as mocking them?

Was it because no other good points could be found that they were only praised for being good-natured?

But what Chen Jie didn’t expect was Zhou Chu could actually become Peng Shizhong’s adoptive son, and what’s more important, this lad’s father-in-law turned out to be Sun Bu’er of the Shunfeng Escort Agency.

That Shunfeng Escort Agency was not just any family; they were a force to be reckoned with in Mianshui County, and they had connections with the Dragon Gate Escort Agency in Jiangnan, adding greatly to the old leader’s prestige.

The old leader had two sons and a daughter.

The old man was clever in understanding that one shouldn’t put all their eggs in one basket, hence his two sons and one daughter were arranged accordingly.

The first son was in Guild Cao, now holding a manager position, while the eldest son-in-law was sent to the Fishing Guild, to be adopted.

The second son stayed in the escort agency to inherit the family business.

In this way, no matter how the Mianshui River shifted power, their Shunfeng Escort Agency could stand tall and unshaken!

This was the old man’s philosophy in life.

After speaking a few words with Peng Shizhong, Elder Sun prepared to leave with Zhou Chu.

Zhou Chu, not one to joke around much, showed the demeanor of someone raised with strict discipline. As Elder Sun was about to leave, Zhou Chu turned his head and mouthed, "Tomorrow, let’s gather tomorrow for a drink..."

"Cough, cough!"

Elder Sun coughed again and Zhou Chu immediately tensed up, following the old man to depart.

Chen Jie couldn’t help but try to suppress a smile as he watched him.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Peng Shizhong and seeing that Peng had no further instructions for him, he left.

Returning home, Chen Jie practiced his Spear Technique and Hand Technique.

He practiced all day, and after another night had passed, Chen Jie got up to practice the spear.

The usual warm-up, assuming the proper stance with the spear in hand, and due to the improvement in his physical condition, Chen Jie was able to maintain the stance for an even longer time today.

While Chen Jie was practicing the spear, Xiao Hu also came out and began his warm-up.

After warming up, Chen Jie took a Muscle Relaxing Pill and then began furiously practicing his Spear Technique. With the long spear in his hand as light as his own arm, he swung it with ease, and at the same time, the terrifying power of the medicine rose in steam from his body.

His muscles trembled; Chen Jie felt he was about to break through and was on the verge of entering the Willow Tendon Realm to officially reach the Dark Force Level.

At that time, the Black Market.

Yu Biao’s Manager, wearing a fake beard, entered room number "Jia" A with a large parcel in his arms.

The gaunt old man still smoked his pipe, glanced at Yu Biao’s Manager, and asked, "Is the money ready?"

The manager nodded lightly, and the old man said, "Verification!"

The manager opened the parcel, revealing a neat stack of silver notes amounting to two thousand taels, some assorted smaller notes, and pieces of silver.

Those two thousand taels were approved by Yu Biao just before his death to finance an assassination against Wu Zhong.

The rest was the manager’s own private income, which he brought forth in its entirety to repay Yu Biao’s kindness, determined to take out Chen Jiusi.

The gaunt old man said, "Leave a deposit of 1,500 taels, and you’re good to go."

The manager interjected, "Wait, I have a request."

Exhaling a puff of smoke, the old man inquired, "Speak."

"When the time comes, I want to witness his death with my own eyes."

"That?"

The old man squinted and replied, "Difficult to arrange."

"I can add more money!"

"How much can you add?"

The manager insisted, "Two hundred taels."

"Five hundred taels, deal. I’ll have someone bring you along. If not, you go back and wait for the news."

After a moment’s thought, the manager agreed, "Deal!"

...

Swish, swish, swish!

Chen Jie was unaware that the assassination against him was in progress, or perhaps he was simply in no mood to care about anything else.

He felt he was about to break through his "Thirteen Breaking Tribulation Strokes" technique.

The spear thrust forward like a dragon soaring, his heart calm and patient.

The spear descended like a tiger’s roar, with balanced force and no deviation.

With each motion and rest, a storm arose, cool gleam following him with dragon and tiger might.

Spear—achieved!

Crack!

Chen Jie thrust his spear fiercely into a parasol tree, and the next moment, a hole was pierced straight through it, piercing three inches deep into the wood.

At the same time, a surge of heat rose from Chen Jie’s body.

He had finally broken through!

The Liu Jin Realm, achieved!
