Ch.41 - Elixir
Because Shu Xiang had always been consumed by hatred and resentment, he had never once recalled his childhood memories. That did not mean those memories had disappeared. They had simply been buried deep within his mind.Now, those memories had resurfaced, allowing Shu Xiang to remember quite a lot about herbs. Although he only remembered a few of the books he had studied back then, at least he did not have to start learning from scratch.And most importantly..."So there really are some herbs here that are the same as those in the magic world. There are also herbs that are different but have similar effects. However, most of them are completely different." Shu Xiang smiled faintly as he thought about it. He had just finished the food he ordered."I'll go to the library later. For now, I want to buy some herbs and conduct a few experiments."Shu Xiang paid for his meal and left the restaurant, heading toward the nearest herbal shop.When he arrived, Shu Xiang saw rows of herbs stored i
Ch.40 - Your Death Was Truly Useless!
"Young Master, why did you call for me?" Lian asked after arriving in the front courtyard of Shu Xiang's residence, wearing a simple smile.Shu Xiang did not answer immediately. He simply smiled sweetly, a smile that somehow made Lian feel even more uneasy.Lian glanced toward the table. She saw that the food was no longer covered, but the money pouch was nowhere to be seen."Um... was the food... not to your liking?" Lian asked hesitantly."It tastes the same as usual, but it seems a little saltier than usual.""If that's the case, I can get a fresh meal for you, Young Master." Lian spoke quickly, hoping she could leave this situation immediately."Wait."Shu Xiang casually walked over and picked up the tray containing the food."Ah, Young Master, you don't have to trouble yourself. I can take it myself."Lian thought Shu Xiang had merely picked up the tray so she could take it away.But suddenly, Shu Xiang's expression turned cold."Try eating it.""Eh?"Lian froze in shock."Didn't
Ch.39 - Poisoned Food
Shu Xiang's progress had been quite rapid over the past few days. He had been working hard and remained consistent, never wasting his free time. He only rested around midnight after finishing his hunts, and the next morning, he would continue training again.He had also modified the Dawn Wind Sword Technique and created his own version of it.Shu Xiang had found no problems with the technique itself, but he had discovered a better way to use each of its techniques, consuming less energy while producing better results.On top of that, Shu Xiang had combined it with a better footwork technique. More precisely, he had combined the Dawn Wind Sword Technique with the Flash Mist Sword Technique belonging to the Wu Family.Although Shu Xiang did not know exactly how the Wu Family circulated their energy when using their sword technique, he understood the basic concept behind it: firm footwork that allowed the user to launch themselves forward at tremendous speed and unleash a deadly attack.
Ch.38 - Servant Lian
"After the mysterious deaths of the thugs in the city, now we have mysterious deaths among the mountain bandits, huh?" Shu Fang Yun stared seriously at the report in his hand."There is a possibility that the culprit behind both incidents is the same person," Shu Chao added."Do you have any evidence?""No. It's just a feeling." Shu Chao slowly shook his head."Hm. Then it's nothing more than a possibility.""So far, we haven't found a single clue, and the investigation has yielded nothing. This person is very good at hiding their tracks," Shu Chao added."The massacre of those thugs only happened on a single night, while the incidents involving the bandits have been occurring night after night. If all those bandits are killed, it could become a problem for my Shu Family." Shu Fang Yun couldn't simply allow all the bandits to be killed. He had to do something."Increase the city's security. Conduct a more thorough investigation, and order several Red Wind Banner troops to patrol the h
Ch.37 - Acupuncture Points
Shu Xiang meditated, clearing his mind and focusing entirely on understanding martial arts techniques.The anatomy diagrams in the Dawn Cloud Sword manual were only detailed from the arms to the chest, showing everything from individual muscles to the acupuncture points. From the abdomen down to the legs, however, the diagrams only showed the major muscle groups without any acupuncture points. Therefore, the footwork in the technique consisted only of basic movements that were commonly known.That was only natural, since the Dawn Cloud Sword was a technique that emphasized the speed of slashes and thrusts. Even so, footwork remained important because it served as the foundation of the technique. However, since it was not the main focus, only simple movements were included, with a certain amount of energy circulated through specific muscles to support each movement of the arms.From the arms to the chest, there were forty acupuncture points. This was not the maximum number of acupunctu
Ch.36 - Shu Ming's Cunning Plan
After returning to the Shu Family residence, Shu Ming and Shu Lin immediately went to see their mother and reported everything that had happened."What? So that brat really can cultivate? And he's already strong enough to defeat Wu Zhi?" Wei An found it difficult to believe that the boy who had always been regarded as the trash of the Shu Family had actually been hiding his strength.So the fact that he had been able to punch Shu Ming and kill Guard Shui was not merely a coincidence. He had already become strong enough to do those things."Mother, if this is true, then my position could be threatened. He's also gained Father's attention, and he'll definitely start receiving the family's support for his cultivation." Shu Ming could not help but worry.Although he did not want to admit it, Shu Xiang was truly impressive for reaching this level without any support from the family. If he received the family's backing, his progress could accelerate dramatically, and he might even catch up
