Longevity Begins with the Seven Injuries Fist-Chapter 259 - 165: Fist Gang’s Power! Flying Snow Bright Silver Saber!
After Su Que arrived at the Heaven-Breaking Array Mansion, he was received by Qiu Yu.
And he learned from Qiu Yu that Li Xuanji was temporarily not there; he had gone to Celestial River Prefecture.
Su Que then expressed his thoughts.
He did not need the Heaven-Breaking Army to dispatch multiple powerful Martial Arts experts for him.
He only needed about twenty people, with two Meridian Opening Realm Martial Artists, and the rest being Qi Blood Realm Martial Artists.
He just needed this team to look like a medicine transport squad.
And he would hide within this team, waiting for those forces that plundered medicinal materials to show up.
Anyway, once he took action, it would be enough; the strength of the team’s force made no difference.
Upon hearing that Su Que only needed two Meridian Opening Realm Martial Artists, Qiu Yu immediately agreed.
Because dispatching two Meridian Opening Realm Martial Artists was still within her authority.
She only needed to report to Li Xuanji after the dispatch.
If more Meridian Opening Realm Martial Artists were dispatched, then Li Xuanji would need to come personally.
Because Li Xuanji had formulated many rules to prevent people below from using soldiers to rebel, even his household ministers weren’t given particularly great power.
Su Que immediately arranged with Qiu Yu that at three quarters past sunrise tomorrow, the team should gather at the North City Gate of Jiannan Prefecture City.
After leaving the Heaven-Breaking Army Mansion, Su Que returned to the cave where he stored things and continued today’s cultivation.
In the evening, after having several dinners in some villages and towns, Su Que changed back into his scholar’s robe and flew back home.
He planned to return home early tonight and greet Su Jing, telling her that he would be traveling for a while.
Upon returning home, Su Que went to Su Jing’s room.
At that moment, the light in Su Jing’s room was on.
A faint light from her room came through the door paper.
Arriving at the door, Su Que knocked on it and called out to Su Jing.
Su Jing was sitting cross-legged on the bed, practicing her skills.
The Jade Maiden Heart Scripture does not always require two people to practice; some parts can be practiced alone, although the effect is quite different from practicing it together.
Upon hearing Su Que’s footsteps, she slowly concluded her practice.
A faint white mist emitted from her beautiful nose and slightly parted cherry lips.
It extended an arm’s length before dissipating.
When Su Que knocked on the door, Su Jing rose from the bed, casually slipped her fair foot into her shoes, and went to open the door for Su Que.
Squeak——
The door opened, Su Que looked at Su Jing, seeing her skin had become more delicate and tight, with a deeper luster.
Her eyes had a radiance, occasionally shining in the darkness, and her breath was more prolonged.
’Su Jing is a Four Blood Martial Artist now.’
Su Que thought to himself; although her cultivation speed was not as fast as his, it was considered swift among Martial Artists.
’I didn’t expect Su Jing to be so suited for cultivating the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture.’
Just as he was thinking, Su Jing asked, "Xiao Que, you’re back. Is there something you want to talk about?"
Su Que replied, "I’ve made arrangements with a few friends; in the coming period, I’ll be traveling."
Upon hearing this, Su Jing’s eyes lit up, and she asked, "Where will you be traveling?"
Su Que replied, "To the Central Plains." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Su Jing listened, her heart easing slightly.
Though the Martial Artists in the Central Plains were stronger than in the Southern Domain, the Central Plains had better law and order.
The Southern Domain is remote and favorable, serving as a gathering place for many bandits.
Though many bandits have been cleared after the Heaven-Breaking Army occupied the Southern Domain, some still remain.
In contrast, few hooligans exist in the Central Plains, but many are big bandits who engage in significant ventures.
As long as one is in the Central Plains, without showing wealth, usually, no harm comes to them.
The reason the Heaven-Breaking Army’s medicine transport team was plundered was that it carried a large amount of medicinal materials.
Only such considerable interest would arouse the greed of some forces.
"Wait a moment, Xiao Que." Su Jing said, turned back into the room, and retrieved a dagger with a simple leather sheath from a drawer on the dressing table.
Holding the dagger, she walked to the door and handed it to Su Que:
"This is a dagger given to me by Sister Yujing. I’ve tested it; it’s very sharp, able to cut hair and slice through iron like mud."
"Take it with you for protection on the road."
Su Que looked at the dagger and thought that this kind of weapon was useless to him now.
He could now condense Gang Qi, enabling him to cut hairs and slice through iron as if it were mud.
However, to put Su Jing’s mind at ease, Su Que accepted the dagger.
After accepting it, Su Que immediately walked back to his room while Su Jing closed the door and continued practicing.
Back in his room, Su Que lit the oil lamp, shut the door behind him, and placed the dagger inside a cabinet.
He would not bring this dagger.
If someone traveling with him noticed the dagger, and someone happened to know it originally belonged to Li Yujing,
Then his identity would be exposed.
Su Que took off his shoes, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to condense True Qi.
After practicing for more than an hour and making some progress in the Gang Condensing Realm, he went to boil water, took a hot bath, and went to sleep.
...
The following day, Su Que got up early, packed his bundle, and left home, heading out of the city toward the cave where he stored things.
In the cave, he changed into Martial Attire, put on a mask, donned a cloak, picked up a bundle, then headed to the North City Gate of Jiannan Prefecture City.
Upon arrival, Qiu Yu and more than twenty Martial Artists were already waiting for Su Que at the city gate.
Accompanying them were eight carriages.
At this moment, the morning light began to reveal itself, a beam of sunlight slanted onto the ground, elongating Su Que’s shadow.
Qiu Yu, seeing Su Que walking from afar, kept her eyes on him. When Su Que came near, she greeted him with a hand salute: "Sir!"
The other twenty people followed, also greeted him with a hand salute, saying, "Sir."
