From breaking the limits of archery to achieving martial arts godhood

Inside an inn, Chen Hu invited Chen Xun to dinner and then expressed his desire to stay with the Medicine Gang and become a formal disciple.

If your surname is Song and you live in Song District of Ping'an Town, becoming a disciple of the Medicine Clan is very simple. You just need to have a certain level of martial arts aptitude and then become a martial artist.

But it's much more troublesome for outsiders.

A guarantor is required to become a disciple of the Medicine Gang.

Not just anyone can be a guarantor; at the very least, one must be an elite disciple with a certain status within the gang.

Of all the people Chen Hu knew, only Chen Xun met the above criteria and was willing to help him.

Therefore, when the Medicine Gang was about to send him back to Chenjia Village, he immediately went to find Chen Xun.

"Brother Tiger, this shouldn't be too difficult for you. I'll go ask around for you."

After listening, Chen Xun did not give a guarantee, but instead prepared to ask someone first.

"Okay, thank you so much."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hu immediately revealed a somewhat ingratiating smile.

"What's the trouble? We're from the same village, and you've taken good care of me before, Brother Tiger. If you need my help today, I'll definitely find a way to get it done for you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hu was immediately moved.

The meal was a pleasant one for both the host and guests.

After Chen Xun left, he immediately contacted an acquaintance to inquire about the matter.

"You want to recommend someone to join the medicine group? Who is it?"

Song Que asked curiously.

Chen Xun didn't know many people in the Medicine Gang, so he approached Song Que immediately.

"He's a martial artist from my village who used to take good care of me."

Chen Xun explained.

"I see," Song Que nodded, "If that's the case, then there's no problem."

"I'll have someone take you through the procedures later. Soon, your friend from the same village will become a member of my medicine gang."

"The gang is short-handed right now, so the process is much faster than before. At the latest, this matter should be completed by tomorrow."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Song Que."

Song Que waved his hand: "No need to be so polite, it's just a small matter."

"Oh, right," Song Que said to Chen Xun as if he had suddenly thought of something, "In a little over half a month, it will be the annual ancestral worship ceremony. At that time, the gang will hold a martial arts competition to worship the ancestors."

"This competition is divided into two age groups: one for those under 20 and the other for those between 20 and 30."

"Anyone who ranks in the top ten in the competition will receive a substantial reward."

"If you're interested, you can sign up to participate."

After Song Que finished speaking, Chen Xun asked, "Can I bring a bow and arrows?"

"It's possible, but the arena is small, so even if you bring a bow and arrow, you probably won't be able to use them effectively."

"Oh, I guess I won't participate then."

"That works too. You're still young, there's plenty of time."

Song Que did not force Chen Xun to participate.

"There's one more thing."

Song Que stared at Chen Xun with great interest and asked, "What type of woman do you like?"

"Why do you ask that?"

"Of course, I'll arrange a good marriage for you."

"My Song family has quite a few eligible young women, many of whom are slender and beautiful."

"I'll reserve it for you first, so someone else won't snatch it up."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xun immediately understood Song Que's meaning: he wanted Song Que to marry a woman from the Song family and tie him to the Medicine Gang.

After thinking it over carefully, he didn't refuse directly, but said, "Senior Brother Song Que, thank you for your kindness."

"But right now I want to focus more on cultivation and don't want to be distracted by matters of love and sex."

"Here's what I'll do: give me a year. In a year, I'll be sixteen, the age to get married. My cultivation will probably be stuck at the peak of the Iron Skin Realm for a while. I can get married and have children then, which won't delay my cultivation."

Chen Xun's remarks were reasonable and well-founded.

Song Queyi thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.

"Alright, we'll do as you say."

Seeing that Song Que agreed with him, Chen Xun immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, if Song Que really insisted that he marry a woman from the Song family now, he wouldn't resist.

Anyway, he's not the one who's going to suffer a loss.

"However, you haven't answered my previous question yet. What type of woman do you like? I'll try to find someone for you so I can get things done for you two when the time comes."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xun stroked his chin, tilted his head back, and pondered, "If I had to say, I like tall, beautiful women with curvy figures."

After Chen Xun finished speaking, Song Que looked at Chen Xun with a strange expression.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Xun couldn't help but touch his face.

"It's nothing, I understand."

Song Que waved his hand, offering no explanation.

He then arranged for someone to take Chen Xun through the procedures.

He himself sat in his seat and smiled inexplicably.

"That's interesting, she's the same type of woman I like."

He chose his wife according to these standards, and she has now given birth to a son and a daughter for him.

With Song Que's prior notice, Chen Xun's business was completed quickly.

The next morning, Chen Hu approached Chen Xun and expressed his gratitude with great excitement.

It turned out that he had received a notification last night that he would officially become a disciple of the Medicine Clan.

Of course, he had to start as a junior disciple and make enough contributions before he could be promoted to a higher-ranking disciple.

This was not a problem for Chen Hu, who possessed peak Iron Bone Realm strength.

With his abilities, given the opportunity, he could quickly rise to the rank of senior disciple, or even elite disciple.

To express his gratitude to Chen Xun, Chen Hu invited Chen Xun to dinner again, but Chen Xun politely declined.

"Excuse me, Brother Tiger, I need to cultivate."

"Oh, it's my fault. I shouldn't have disturbed your cultivation. I'll leave now and invite you again when I have time."

Chen Hu quickly replied.

Then, with a hint of caution, he said goodbye and left.

Not long after he left, he ran into Chen Ye.

Seeing his delighted expression, Chen Ye couldn't help but ask, "What good thing happened to you?"

It would have been better if he hadn't asked. But as soon as he did, Chen Hu couldn't help but gloat: "Of course there's good news. I'm now a formal disciple of the Medicine Clan."

"real?"

Chen Ye was startled, and a feeling of envy and jealousy welled up in his heart. He quickly asked, "How did you do that?"

"It's very simple, Xiao Xun helped."

After that, Chen Hu left in a hurry without saying much.

He needs to work hard to earn contribution points and raise his disciple's level as soon as possible.

As a low-ranking disciple, he couldn't even afford to buy Boiling Blood Powder.

"Chen Xun".

As Chen Ye murmured the name, his heart was filled with a mixture of emotions.

Of these, the bitterness of regret outweighs the bitterness.

After Chen Hu left, Chen Xun did not go to cultivate.

Instead, he bought some gifts and went out.

Soon, he left the medicine guild and arrived at the entrance of a two-courtyard brick house in Song District.

Compared to the surrounding houses, this house is much more impressive.

Chen Xun knocked on the door, and the door opened, revealing a person dressed as a servant peeking out.

Who are you looking for?

"I am a friend of your esteemed son, Song Baicao, and I have come to have a chat with him."

"So you're a friend of Young Master Baicao, please come in."

The servant quickly invited Chen Xun in, and soon he met Song Baicao.

"Chen Xun, what brings you here?"

Song Baicao was overjoyed to see Chen Xun.

"You're welcome to come, no need to bring gifts."

Song Baicao glanced at the gift in Chen Xun's hand and casually complained.

Chen Xun remained silent, only smiled, and then handed the gift to the servant.

It's impolite to come to someone's house empty-handed, especially since he's here to ask for a favor, so we can't be careless about etiquette.

Subsequently, through Song Baicao's introduction, Chen Xun met his parents, siblings, and the rest of his family.

Many of them were disciples of the Medicine Clan and knew Chen Xun, so they were very polite to him.

In particular, Song Baicao's parents were extremely grateful to Chen Xun after learning that he had saved their son's life.

I insisted on inviting him to stay for a meal.

Chen Xun declined twice, but then decided to stay.

After that, things were simple.

After having a meal, Chen Xun and Song Baicao's father, Song Yang, became acquainted.

During the conversation, Chen Xun subtly inquired and learned that pharmacists like Song Yang did indeed have some extra Bone Tempering Pills.

These were all made by them using medicinal herbs they purchased themselves, and were not under the jurisdiction of the medicine gang.

They can sell these Bone Tempering Pills to the disciples of the Medicine Clan, but they cannot trade with outsiders; if caught, they will be severely punished.

Therefore, each pharmacist has several regular clients.

In the past, even if Chen Xun approached Song Yang, he wouldn't be able to get the Bone Tempering Pill from him immediately.

However, the last incident resulted in the deaths of many elite disciples of the Medicine Clan, including two of Song Yang's regular trading partners.

Just as Song Yang was worrying about what to do with the extra Bone Tempering Pills, Chen Xun arrived.

The two parties quickly reached an agreement, and Chen Xun sold all six Bone Tempering Pills in Song Yang's possession to Chen Xun for 50 taels of silver each.

50 taels of silver is already a discounted price.

In Qingnang Pharmacy, the price of Bone-Tempering Pills has now risen to 80 taels per pill.

This has a lot to do with those county-level vultures.

They entered the pharmacy warehouse and stole a lot of medicinal powders and bone-strengthening pills.

These are all hard currencies, in high demand, and very easy to sell.

As a result, the number of Bone Tempering Pills in the Medicine Gang's inventory decreased significantly.

If it weren't for the pharmacist working overtime to refine it, and the fact that some of the stock was found from the Blood Hand Gang, it wouldn't have been possible.

The price could probably rise to over a hundred taels of silver per piece now.

After leaving Song Yang's house, Chen Xun, carrying six Bone Tempering Pills, hurried back to the Medicine Clan.

After returning to his residence, he took out a Bone Tempering Pill and swallowed it to cultivate.
