Republic of China era: A hundred-year-old still practicing martial arts? Is that right?

Shen Jinluan remained silent for a long time.

Liu Qingzhu glanced back and forth between the two women, seemingly sensing something amiss, and spoke up:

"Uncle Lin has exhausted too much of his energy and blood, and has temporarily fallen into a coma, but his physical condition is not seriously affected."

A question arose in her mind, and she glanced at Lin Ji out of the corner of her eye with a strange look and disbelief:

"Uncle Lin is a hundred years old, yet he still has such great charm?"

She glanced at the two of them again, and even someone as aloof as Liu Qingzhu couldn't help but wonder:

"Bai Yu'er can understand, but why is Shen Jinluan jealous?"

Shen Jinluan's flustered expression earlier, and the undisguised hostility she showed upon seeing Bai Yu'er.

Anyone with eyes can see that Shen Jinluan and Lin Ji have a very close relationship.

Liu Qingzhu glanced at Bai Yu'er's thin clothing. The loose robe couldn't hide Bai Yu'er's exquisite figure. Bai Yu'er didn't show any embarrassment when she saw Lin Ji. Her clothes were clearly her everyday attire.

Is it...

Liu Qingzhu couldn't help but speculate.

Could it be... that Uncle Lin is alright?

Liu Qingzhu blushed slightly as she recalled the scene of Lin Ji treating her injuries in the main room that day. She couldn't help but wonder if she had made a mistake by coming to this courtyard.

"Come inside quickly." Bai Yu'er looked anxious and reached out to help Lin Ji.

Lin Ji slightly shifted his body to the side, dodging Bai Yu'er's outstretched hand, and walked towards the main room.

Bai Yu'er was slightly taken aback. She took a deep look at Shen Jinluan's back. Shen Jinluan did not shy away from having physical contact with Lin Ji at all. A hint of jealousy rose in Bai Yu'er's eyes. She took a step and followed.

As she entered the main room, Shen Jinluan glanced at the small room that Bai Yuer had kept so tidy, and the bedroom had a unique feminine fragrance.

However, upon seeing that there was only one large bed in the bedroom, a flash of hostility appeared in Shen Jinluan's eyes: "Is there only one bedroom in this house? Are you living with Old Lin?"

She knew perfectly well that the old man in her arms was not only capable, but incredibly strong.

Bai Yu'er was slightly taken aback, recalling the intimate moments she had shared with Old Lin in this bedroom a few days ago, and suddenly didn't know how to respond.

Liu Qingzhu coughed lightly, speaking up to help Bai Yu'er out of the predicament: "The side room is a good place to rest."

Shen Jinluan, intimidated by Liu Qingzhu's status as a clerk in the Green Robe Gang, quickly suppressed most of the hostility that had flashed in her eyes: "That's fine then."

Shen Jinluan placed Lin Ji on the bed, raised her hand to wipe the fragrant sweat from her forehead, and stood there casually, her allure naturally radiating charm.

At the age of twenty-seven or twenty-eight, her figure was more charming than Bai Yu'er's.

Lin Ji opened his eyes slightly under the dim light in the room, his gaze fixed on Shen Jinluan.

"Gurgle..."

Lin Ji swallowed hard.

"That seductive woman, Shen Jinluan... isn't she trying to seduce this old man?"

He only glanced at it once.

Lin Ji's originally thin blood and qi suddenly began to circulate rapidly, uncontrollably surging towards a certain part of his body.

Within Lin Ji's mind, the Book of Rebellion trembled slightly, its closed pages barely managing to hold up half a page before closing again, as if it were telling Lin Ji its plea.

There are three women in the house.

Liu Qingzhu, whose eyesight was at its best in the later stages of his internal energy cultivation, immediately noticed the abnormality in Lin Ji's body.

Her pretty face flushed slightly again. She withdrew her gaze from Lin Ji, turned her head to the other side, and spoke in a cool tone:

"Chief Shen, we lost three Ming Jin brothers this time. I have to go back and report to the chief. I'll leave it to you to stay and take care of Uncle Lin."

Shen Jinluan quickly suppressed her seductive aura and nodded in response, "Taking care of Uncle Lin is my duty, Master Liu, you flatter me."

"Mm." Liu Qingzhu nodded in response, then looked at Bai Yu'er beside him: "Miss Bai, thank you for your help as well."

Bai Yu'er hurriedly said, "No trouble at all."

Liu Qingzhu nodded, glanced at Lin Ji one last time before leaving, then quickly looked away, muttering to herself:

"Uncle Lin..."

"Let's hurry back to the guild."

Lin Ji's gaze fell on Liu Qingzhu's back, his blood and qi surging within him, making him unable to help but let his imagination run wild.

"This book of destiny says that one must achieve perfect union before it can be read again... Doesn't that mean one must also..."

Liu Qingzhu walked out of the small house.

The cabin fell silent immediately. Shen Jinluan lowered her crescent-shaped eyebrows slightly, her voice naturally alluring:

"Little sister, fetch a basin of water for your older sister so I can wipe this old man down."

Shen Jinluan stopped pretending altogether. As if asserting her dominance, she lifted her leg and sat on the edge of the bed, the hem of her cheongsam slipping down, revealing her long, snow-white legs directly to the top of her thighs.

"Okay." Bai Yu'er couldn't bear to look at her and lowered her head to leave.

Lin Ji closed his eyes, thinking to himself, "How could Bai Yu'er possibly defeat this woman?"

"This is bad."

Bai Yu'er went out the door again.

Shen Jinluan bent down and examined Lin Ji closely. Lin Ji's face had fewer wrinkles and furrows than before, and Shen Jinluan couldn't help but reach out to touch it.

She noticed the change in Lin Ji's body as soon as she raised her hand.

"Pfft!"

Shen Jinluan laughed out loud.

Bai Yu'er entered, warming the wooden basin, and wrung out a towel, preparing to wipe Lin Ji. Shen Jinluan spoke up:

"Sister, put it down, I'll do it. It's so late, you should go and get some rest."

Bai Yu'er glanced at Lin Ji and noticed his change. She put down the wooden basin, responded softly, and went out of the house.

Bai Yu'er listened intently outside, and after a moment she heard the rustling sound of clothes being undone. Bai Yu'er lowered her head and hurriedly went into the side room, leaning against the door, seemingly lost in thought.

Inside the main room.

Lin Ji transformed into a creature driven by desire.

A melodious sound... drifted out.

"I was forced..."

"That damned book of fate..."

Lin Ji roared in his heart.

The Tongxin Jade Combination Technique was activated rapidly, and Lin Ji's blood and qi began to replenish, his previously weak body was once again filled with strength.

However, the abilities of "Martial Arts True Understanding" and "Observing Qi and Recognizing Momentum" also temporarily disappeared when the Book of Reversal of Fate was closed again.

Lying in bed.

Shen Jinluan curled up in his arms, and Lin Ji finally understood the meaning of the voice in his mind earlier.

He was absolutely certain that this book of defying fate was essentially a legacy of the "Ancestor of Joyful Union".

All the rewards in the book are related to the word "Hehuan" (合欢).

Lin Ji wanted to cry but had no tears.

Just now, his blood surged, and he seemed to become a different person, completely losing control of himself.

They completely disregarded the fact that Bai Yu'er was still in the side room of the courtyard.

A clear stream flowed from the ancient, silent book in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Lin Ji was slightly taken aback.

Is there a reward this time?

A blueprint appeared in Lin Ji's mind.

Above the design is a long spear.

The side indicates the material, the manufacturing process, and the quenching time.

arms?

This battle.

Lin Ji fully understood the difference between having weapons and not having weapons.

There is a weapon that can increase combat power many times over in battle.

just.

We only have weapons.

There are no corresponding martial arts techniques...

Lin Ji's idea had only just come to mind.

Within the sea of ​​consciousness.

His defiant martial spirit trembled violently.

Lin Ji's pupils suddenly contracted; his martial spirit remained.

With his martial spirit, all martial arts techniques in the world are at his disposal.

Thinking about it.

Shen Jinluan, fast asleep, turned slightly to the side, draping one of her jade-like legs over Lin Ji.

Lin Ji put aside his thoughts and fell into a deep sleep. However, when he turned his head to look at Shen Jinluan's beautiful face, he suddenly felt that Shen Jinluan had changed.

The breath is long and deep, and the blood and qi are abundant.
