The strongest warrior of the Great Qian Dynasty

Qianqian was still telling her story.

"Just like the Fetal Essence Fruit that Master took before, although its effect is relatively weak, it is still considered a good treasure for many martial artists."

Taking one pill is equivalent to at least half a month's worth of hard work for most people.

Li Qingshan suddenly realized why Wang Biao wanted to steal his Fetal Essence Fruit.

It's not that this thing is too useful to them, but because they are too supermodels.

It is so powerful that it can cultivate quickly without needing any special treasures.

"Qianqian, do you know of any precious medicine that can speed up my cultivation in the Steam Mirror realm?"

Li Qingshan quickly asked.

Although his breakthrough speed was already very fast, he hoped to be even faster.

"The master possesses a yang constitution, with a continuous flow of yang energy. As his cultivation level increases, his yang energy becomes even more abundant, making it difficult for him to replenish too much yang energy in a short period of time."

If I had to say what could help the master break through their strength... treasures rich in Yin energy would be very suitable for you, such as pecans, September branches, withered plum blossoms...

Qianqian listed dozens of precious medicines rich in yin energy.

Unfortunately, Li Qingshan had never heard of any precious medicinal herb from beginning to end.

Even in the treasure vault of Shuiyun Pavilion, there is no such treasure.

But it makes sense when you think about it; who would put their precious items in a grocery store's warehouse?

"By the way, Master, burning large amounts of joss paper will also work!"

Qianqian seemed to have thought of something, and a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes. She quickly said something.

"However, since you have just broken through to a higher realm and your foundation is still shallow, it is best not to rush to break through. Only after you have stabilized your foundation can you maximize your benefits."

Li Qingshan nodded, then sat cross-legged on the spot and began to circulate the true energy within his body to further catalyze his physical body.

This can be considered another benefit of breaking through to the True Qi Realm.

The continuous flow of true energy is more terrifying and powerful than internal force, and it is better for tempering the body.

The night was as dark as ink, slowly descending.

In Lin'an City, a few barks of dogs could be heard occasionally, followed by silence.

just.

As Li Qingshan continued to circulate his internal energy, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a faint golden light flashed in the void before immediately dissipating.

hum!

After several dozen breaths.

A figure dressed in black, dressed in night clothes, appeared in the courtyard where Li Qingshan was.

The newcomer was exceptionally agile and possessed superb lightness skills. With a few leaps, he arrived at the outside of Li Qingshan's house and then pushed in an envelope that emitted a faint rose fragrance.

Goodbye, Li Qingshan…

As the faint sound faded away, Li Qingshan felt the person at the door slowly disappear into the night.

"Ninth Madam? What's he doing at Shuiyun Pavilion so late at night, delivering a letter to me? And his aura seems a bit strange. He hasn't broken through to the True Qi Realm, but he has speed and strength comparable to the True Qi Realm?"

Li Qingshan picked up the envelope with some curiosity, twirled it in his hand, and pondered as he gazed at the departing figure in the distance.

"Master, it's malevolent energy. Although malevolent energy in the military can't help people break through realms quickly, it still has many benefits for physical training and strength growth."

Qianqian added appropriately.

Li Qingshan nodded, then stopped caring about these things.

After all, even with his strength, he had no way to obtain the evil energy.

Instead of thinking about all that, why not read what's written in the letter?

just.

Li Qingshan frowned more and more as he looked at the envelope, eventually crushing it into pieces and letting it slip through his fingers.

The letter contained very simple information:

Under the tempering of Yang energy, the Ninth Lady successfully activated the military aura within her body.

Furthermore, because the Changning Marquis's residence is currently in a strange state, she has no choice but to leave according to the arrangements left by her father.

Before leaving, she came to inform Li Qingshan to quickly find a way to leave the Changning Marquis's residence.

only……

"You said you wanted me to help you a while ago, but I never expected you to turn around and run away first. What a cruel twist of fate."

Li Qingshan patted the scraps of paper off his hands, sighing with a hint of helplessness.

Life is unpredictable and full of unknowns.

However, between the lines, Li Qingshan saw what he wanted to see: there really was a powerful figure in the Changning Marquis's mansion, who might even have reached the level of a Grandmaster!

"Make it as chaotic as possible, only then will I have any hope of getting into the treasure vault and obtaining the fragments of the Nine Yang Sword!"

Li Qingshan returned to his room and began to rest.

The more he rested, the more he felt his yang energy was surging, and the image of Madam Jiu's enchanting appearance kept flashing through his mind.

……

The next day.

The moonlight streaked across the sky, revealing a sliver of the rising sun.

Before any sounds could be heard from the distant streets, a figure appeared and immediately began fighting in the courtyard.

And in the distance.

Li Qingshan looked calmly at Wu Ziming, who was cultivating.

"Manager Li has certainly taken in a diligent employee. He's up so early to practice martial arts; he's probably close to breaking through!"

Chen Liang, standing to the side, couldn't help but praise.

He looked well, and even had a slight smile on his face.

just.

On the other side, Qin Ligong, the manager of Tianyi Pavilion, didn't look much better.

He turned his face away, no longer looking at anything, and even occasionally let out a cold snort, but no one cared.

"Let's go, Manager Li, the Marquis's residence is waiting for us!"

Chen Liang couldn't help but urge him on.

It seemed he couldn't wait to see the mountains of gold, silver, and treasures piled up inside the Marquis's mansion.

Li Qingshan waved his hand, looked into the distance, and said calmly.

"No rush. Someone recently placed an order for a treasure at my Shuiyun Pavilion, and they should be coming to pick it up soon!"

Chen Liang was taken aback, thinking Li Qingshan was joking, and quickly said...

"Baby? What baby could possibly surpass..."

Before he could finish speaking, a man riding a white horse galloped wildly through the streets of Lin'an City, kicking up clouds of dust.

In no time, the other party arrived at the entrance of Shuiyun Pavilion, revealing the golden token in his hand with a cold expression.

"Where is Li Qingshan, the manager of Shuiyun Pavilion? Is the Dahua joss paper ready?!"

Li Qingshan had anticipated this and handed over the packaged joss paper.

The guard on horseback, however, turned from sunny to stormy. He glared at Li Qingshan before finally putting the hilt of his sword back down.

He grabbed the large joss paper and then rode away.

"Peak internal energy, not bad!"

Watching the departing guards, Li Qingshan couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, Chen Liang and Qin Ligong, who were standing to the side, were able to come closer, their faces full of astonishment.

"That's the Ninth Prince's token! Could it be... that the Ninth Prince himself wants this treasure?!"
