After the family split up, I achieved martial arts sainthood.

Hey!

The disciples gathered in the courtyard erupted in uproar once again.

Everyone looked at Gu Xin with even greater apprehension.

Lin Kun has lost again.

Compared to before, the defeat was faster and more complete.

How on earth did this guy cultivate?

Such rapid progress in just three days.

Zhou Tai was filled with regret and felt ashamed of his own inferiority.

Yang Wei was increasingly pleased and nodded in satisfaction repeatedly.

"Pick up the skill: Galloping Horse Knife".

Lin Kun's figure crashed to the ground, and Gu Xin quickly picked up the dropped experience pack.

Gu Xin paid no attention to the astonishment, fear, shock, and doubt of those around him.

"Senior Brother Lin, you flatter me!"

Gu Xin clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, smiling warmly.

Lin Kun, his face grim, got up from the ground and looked at Gu Xin with eyes full of shame and indignation.

Both hands were clenched into fists, with the ten fingers interlocking in the palms, and the veins on the back of the fists were bulging due to excessive force.

"Lin Kun, that's enough!"

Seeing Lin Kun's expression, Yang Wei stepped forward and stood between them.

He could tell that Lin Kun was still unconvinced.

But he also realized that Gu Xin had held back and had not used his full strength.

Otherwise, with Gu Xin's masterful stance training, a full-force burst of power would be enough to knock Lin Kun off his feet with a single punch.

Once you've mastered the stance training to a high level, you can start trying to break through to higher realms.

Those with good physical constitution are fully qualified to enter the realm of strengthening blood.

In Yang Wei's view, Gu Xin undoubtedly has the qualifications.

"I won't give up like this!"

Lin Kun gritted his teeth, turned around angrily, and left the martial arts school.

Today, he has completely lost face.

But he won't give up so easily.

He will get his revenge.

"Everyone, you may leave now! Today is a day off."

Yang Wei waved his hand, dismissing the disciples.

Overjoyed to have gained such a talented student, he planned to cultivate a good relationship with Gu Xin.

To cultivate a better relationship between them.

The disciples were all sensible and did not disturb them, gradually dispersing.

"Junior Brother Gu, someone is looking for you!"

But just as the disciples dispersed, someone returned from the doorway to greet Gu Xin.

"Is someone looking for me?"

Gu Xin was suspicious for a moment, but quickly realized what was going on.

Not many people knew that he practiced martial arts at Zhenwei Martial Arts School; apart from Li Jinyu and Zhao Baoyin, there were probably very few others.

Therefore, it's easy to guess who would come to the martial arts school to find him.

"Master, I need to go out for a bit!"

Gu Xin greeted Yang Wei and, with Yang Wei's permission, jogged towards the entrance of the martial arts school.

Upon arriving outside, one could see Li Jinyu and Zhao Baoyin, standing about ten feet away from the martial arts school gate, facing the school's wall, cautiously hunching their backs.

The martial arts school disciples who were watching them were all nervously avoiding their gaze.

Gu Xin noticed this scene and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him.

This is the appearance of someone who has been oppressed since childhood and is humbled to the point of being covered in mud.

"Brother Jin Yu, Bao Yin!"

Gu Xin shouted loudly and jogged over to meet him.

"Ah Xin!"

Hearing the call, Li Jinyu and Zhao Baoyin quickly ran over to greet them.

"Why are you here?"

Approaching them, Gu Xin smiled and asked the two why they had come.

Are you alright?

Li Jinyu gripped Gu Xin's arm tightly and asked about his condition.

"What could possibly be wrong with me?"

Gu Xin chuckled. From their tense expressions, he had already guessed their purpose.

But he didn't intend to tell the two the truth.

It wasn't that he didn't trust the two men to betray him, but rather that he worried they might unconsciously reveal their weakness, thus arousing suspicion from the Qinglin Gang.

"Ah Xin, come over here!"

Li Jinyu looked around and noticed that the martial arts school disciples passing by were deliberately watching them. Li Jinyu pulled Gu Xin and walked towards a quiet corner next to the martial arts school.

"Ah Xin, did you know that Cao Bao is dead?"

Once in the corner, Li Jinyu finally couldn't suppress her doubts and asked a question.

"Yes, I know. I heard it from my senior brothers when I came to the martial arts school this morning."

Gu Xin smiled calmly, appearing very composed.

"Do you know how you died?"

Li Jinyu stared intently at Gu Xin, pressing him for answers.

"I heard she was beaten to death in her home, and the death was horribly gruesome?"

Gu Xin's answer was watertight and flawless.

Li Jinyu frowned and stared intently into Gu Xin's eyes.

It wasn't Ah Xinqian's doing?

"Ah Xin, is this you...?"

Seeing that Li Jinyu suddenly fell silent, Zhao Baoyin couldn't help but ask directly.

But before he could finish speaking, Li Jinyu covered his mouth with her hand.

"Ah Xin, Dad asked me to invite you to our house for a casual dinner tonight."

Li Jinyu interrupted Zhao Baoyin, then looked at Gu Xin and invited him with a smile.

"Okay! I'll go back and tell Uncle Rengui that I'll definitely come!"

Gu Xin readily agreed, then smiled and said, "You two go back and wait. I also have some good news to tell you."

"What good news?"

Li Jinyu asked instinctively.

"We'll talk about it when we get back!"

Gu Xin kept everyone in suspense, then smiled mysteriously.

"Alright! You go ahead with your work, we'll head back now. Dad's waiting for us to come back from grocery shopping."

Li Jinyu dragged the struggling Zhao Baoyin away from the martial arts school in a hurry.

Gu Xin watched the two walk away before turning back to the martial arts school.

"Brother Jinyu, why won't you let me ask Axin? We're all brothers, what's the point of keeping it a secret?"

Once Zhao Baoyin had walked a distance away, she finally broke free from Li Jinyu's obstruction and began to complain irritably.

"I know what you want to ask, and I understand what you're thinking."

Li Jinyu smiled smugly, put her arm around Zhao Baoyin's shoulder, and instructed, "But remember, this has nothing to do with A-Xin!"

Ok?

Zhao Baoyin frowned, looking at Li Jinyu with a puzzled expression.

"The Qinglin Gang is searching the whole city like mad today. Anyone who dares to get involved will surely die. Besides, Ah Xin has only been a member of the martial arts school for a few days. Even if he wanted to, he doesn't have the strength."

Li Jinyu suppressed her smile and looked at Zhao Baoyin with a blank expression as she gave her reminder.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Baoyin was greatly alarmed and felt a chill run down his spine.

He almost killed Ah Xin.

"Let's go! This is over, let's go buy groceries!"

Li Jinyu said no more, patted Zhao Baoyin on the shoulder, and walked towards the vegetable market.

……

"Go, change into clean clothes, and I'll take you out to a restaurant!"

When Gu Xin returned to the martial arts school, Yang Wei greeted him.

Going out to eat?

Gu Xin raised his eyebrows slightly. He had lived in this world for so long, and he had never been there before.

"Yes, Master!"

Gu Xin quickly agreed and followed Zhou Tai to change his clothes.

A short while later, the master and his two disciples left the martial arts school.

"Master, which restaurant should we go to?"

Gu Xin couldn't wait to ask about the destination; he was still very curious about the restaurants in this world.

Having grown up in this world, he has never eaten anything good.

Both of them knew very well that eating out was a rare opportunity to improve their meals.

The food at the restaurant is completely different from what I eat at home.

"Go to the world's most precious places!"

Yang Wei, with his hands behind his back, chest out, and an air of superiority, replied.

"A delicacy from heaven? There's a restaurant like this in Qingyuan County?"

Gu Xin frowned. Although he had never eaten out, he knew quite a bit about the restaurants and taverns in Qingyuan County.

After all, restaurants and taverns are the best places to buy wild game hunted in the mountains.

"Junior brother, the world's treasures are not in the outer city, but in the inner city."

Seeing Gu Xin's blank expression, Zhou Tai explained with a smile.

"..."

No wonder I've never heard of it.

The inner city was incredibly valuable, a place of dazzling beauty, and commoners without family connections had no right to enter.
