Immortal Martial Saint, starting with unlimited stat points

A red sun slowly rose, dispelling the mist of the early winter morning.

Zhou Chen searched the Li family's residence for a while and found about ten taels of silver and a porcelain bottle containing pills.

Apart from that, only rice, grains, and meat remained in the vast mansion.

"Li Xiong's mansion is so grand, I didn't expect he didn't have much money."

When he returned home, Uncle Sun was already waiting outside with the oxcart he had borrowed from the village chief.

Zhou Chen welcomed Uncle Sun inside, and the two of them prepared the corpses of the two demonic beasts while waiting for the others to drive the oxcart and help transport the goods.

After waiting for about an hour, everyone returned to their respective villages to report their safety to their families before gathering outside Cangsong Village in their oxcarts.

The group worked together to load the six demon beast corpses onto the oxcart, while the four bound demon beasts groaned and struggled to escape.

Farmers passing through Cangsong Village surrounded the oxcart, marveling at it with a hint of barely perceptible awe.

"Wow, Brother Zhou's hunting skills are really impressive." A man with half a front tooth gave a thumbs up, grinned, and revealed a black hole.

"Yes, from the moment this child was born, I knew he would amount to something great in the future," a robust woman with a thick waist said in a booming voice.

Uncle Sun, leaning against the oxcart, pursed his lips. If that were really the case, why didn't she come out to help Zhou Chen when he was starving and skin and bones?

He raised his head, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, feeling quite pleased with himself.

When it comes to vision, you have to look to Old Sun.

Immediately, he stood up, saw that everyone had secured the demon beasts firmly to the oxcart, clapped his hands, and said, "It's time to set off. We don't want these beasts to get sick from starvation."

The group hitched up the cart, and the wheels creaked and groaned as they rolled over the dirt road, leaving twelve ruts in their wake.

Several hours later, the sun still hadn't set.

Six oxcarts lined up in a row, traveling on the wide official road. The four demonic beasts occasionally made some noise, drawing the attention of the pedestrians who were also driving their carts to sell their wares.

A short while later, the group turned onto a side road and arrived at the slaughterhouse outside the county town.

Before they even got close, more than a dozen purchasing managers surrounded Zhou Chen and his group and came forward to offer their prices.

"Wow, I recognize that person. He's one of the people in charge of purchasing for the Chen family," someone in the group said in surprise.

"A few days ago, I heard that he spent a full ten taels to buy a live, skinned demon beast from a hunter in Lotus Village."

Along with a group of purchasing managers, passersby who had just finished clearing out their own goods and came to join the fun also rushed up.

After all, capturing four monsters alive at the same time is not a common occurrence in the eyes of the public.

"This Iron-Maned Mountain Pig is for the Chen family. How about ten taels of silver?" The Chen family's headman walked over from afar and had already spotted the most eye-catching Iron-Maned Mountain Pig.

Judging from his eyesight, the two fangs of this Iron-maned Mountain Boar were as long as an adult's forearm, indicating that its cultivation level was close to the Bone Forging stage.

If we're lucky, we can extract a few fully tempered animal bones, grind them into powder, and our young master's bone-forging speed will be a bit faster.

Although any member of the Chen, Li, or Zhao families is a prominent figure in Xingde County, the competition within their families is equally fierce.

Cultivation resources, family businesses, and even monthly salaries all have to be earned inch by inch.

The young master of the Chen family whom he had pledged allegiance to was the sixth son of the Chen family patriarch. He had just entered the Bone Forging Realm a few days ago, and in terms of cultivation speed, he was second only to the young master Chen Zhige, who had risen to prominence from a branch in recent years.

With sufficient resources, and through a breakthrough in internal strength, we might even be able to surpass Chen Zhige in speed.

When the old master retires, our young master may be the next head of the family.

With his merits, becoming a head steward shouldn't be difficult.

When passersby heard that it was just a demon beast, the head of the Chen family had offered a high price of ten taels of silver, they gasped in astonishment.

Even the hunters who had sold many monsters in the past showed surprise.

"So, are you going to sell or not?" The head of the Chen family looked at Uncle Sun, the eldest of the family.

When Uncle Sun saw him looking at him, he turned to look at Zhou Chen beside him, his eyes filled with inquiry.

"Sell," Zhou Chen answered decisively.

When the head of the Chen family saw that the person in charge here was a young man, his eyes lit up.

After looking Zhou Chen up and down, they couldn't discern the depth of his cultivation level, but they were impressed by his strikingly handsome face that stood out among the crowd.

Seeing that Zhou Chen had agreed, the head of the Chen family signaled to the two servants beside him to carry away the tightly bound iron-maned boar.

"If you ever capture and sell any monsters like this, you can come to the Chen family to find me. Just say you're looking for the head of the sixth branch." The head of the Chen family took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Zhou Chen, then disappeared after saying that.

As soon as the head of the Chen family left, the managers of the surrounding restaurants immediately started arguing about the remaining three captured monsters.

In the end, the three captured monsters were sold for twenty-five taels of silver, and with the other two that died, the total came to forty-five taels.

Seeing the forty-five taels of silver in Zhou Chen's hand, Uncle Sun and the others breathed a little heavier.

Even hunters who have reached the Flesh Refining Realm might not be able to save twenty or thirty taels of silver after a year of hard work running around in the mountains and deducting daily expenses.

Now, with forty-five taels of silver laid out before them, they couldn't help but be tempted.

Even more so, several people in the crowd had fierce glints in their eyes, scanning Zhou Chen and the others' faces back and forth.

Wealth can be very tempting!

Seeing this, Zhou Chen smiled, took out a full ten taels of silver, and distributed them to the five people who helped transport the demon beasts, giving each of them two taels.

After some pushing and shoving, the other five men took the silver, tactfully bid farewell to Zhou Chen and Uncle Sun, and drove their borrowed oxcart towards the county town.

Normally, one might not earn two taels of silver even after several days in the mountains, but now, just by accompanying someone to transport some monsters, he's made a fortune.

After the others left, Zhou Chen took out ten taels of silver and stuffed it into Uncle Sun's hand, saying, "Uncle, the village is still too small. Why not find a place to live in the city and bring Xiao Hua and Xiao Hu here? Whether they study literature or martial arts, it will be a good way out."

Uncle Sun was about to decline when he heard Zhou Chen's words and paused.

In his heart, it was nothing for him to suffer a little, but he would feel bad if his own child suffered as well.

Now that such an opportunity is before me, I am naturally very excited.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Chen immediately stuffed the silver into Uncle Sun's hand, then turned and left quickly.

Among the crowd, a few people who were closely watching Zhou Chen's movements saw the speed Zhou Chen suddenly unleashed, their pupils contracted, and their eyes instantly regained their clarity.

A short while later, Zhou Chen weighed the silver in his pocket. After deducting the fifteen taels of silver he had given away, and adding the silver he had found in the Li family mansion, he had a total of sixty taels of silver.

Such a large sum of money is enough for him to find a martial arts school and learn martial arts properly.

After paying the city entry fee, Zhou Chen headed straight for Qingyuan Teahouse, a bustling establishment in the south of Xingde County.

When it comes to gathering information, the most convenient place is undoubtedly the local restaurants and teahouses.

As you lift the blue cloth curtain, the delicate aroma of tea wafts out.

Downstairs, some porters and merchants were sitting on the scattered seats, chatting and laughing loudly, while the second floor had private rooms, which were much quieter.

Zhou Chen didn't go up to the second floor, but instead found a corner on the first floor and sat down.

Soon, a waiter with a white handkerchief draped over his shoulder came over, smiling obsequiously, and asked, "Sir, what would you like to drink?"
