The strongest warrior of the Great Qian Dynasty

Overwhelmed by happiness, Wu Ziming no longer cared about anything else.

He quickly welcomed the group in, placed the books in suitable storage locations, and after seeing them off, he began to eagerly look at the martial arts books.

After a while, his voice, which sounded like he understood but didn't quite, echoed through the huge warehouse:

"I see. I felt that the slow progress of my cultivation recently was due to the lack of sufficient treasures to support it. Martial arts cultivation is indeed resource-intensive..."

"What? This acupoint requires shaking movements to activate? Oh dear, I didn't even notice that, what a pity..."

"Wow, so women need to pay attention to their 'Heavenly Essence' during cultivation, but what about men? Oh, men don't need to worry about that..."

Early the next morning.

After getting up, Li Qingshan looked at the backyard with some surprise.

Wu Ziming didn't practice martial arts?

Before long, seeing Wu Ziming with panda eyes, Li Qingshan shook his head helplessly.

This kid is good in every way, except he's a bit too stubborn.

However, as long as it doesn't affect Shuiyun Pavilion's business, we'll let him be.

After casually offering Wu Ziming a few pointers, Li Qingshan entered the library and began browsing through various books.

With the Pure White Lotus Mantra, Li Qingshan doesn't need to read many books in one night like Wu Ziming.

Every time he reads a book, he can imprint a large amount of content in his mind, constantly searching, checking, and filling in any gaps.

Moreover, as he read, Li Qingshan felt that many of the problems and difficulties he had encountered in his previous cultivation were being resolved one by one, and his mind was in a state of clarity.

Even the white lotus condensed from the "Purifying White Lotus Mantra" becomes increasingly translucent, containing not a trace of impurity.

……

The sun sets and the crows fly.

After climbing over the door panel, Wu Ziming, who had not continued his cultivation for the day, rubbed his hands together and walked into the library, ready to show off his skills once again.

But before he even got close to the library, his eyelids rolled back and he fainted at the doorway.

Then, a figure dressed in a black robe, with exceptionally agile movements, slowly appeared at the entrance of the library.

"Does collecting books like others make you a martial arts master? That's utterly ridiculous and laughable."

"If it weren't for the Fourth Miss, I would have taken him down long ago."

By the candlelight, the old woman revealed her true face, her gaze fixed intently on the inner side of the library, though her eyes held a deep sense of jealousy.

"It's okay. If you're really that confident, you can come in and take me down. After all, my guy is innocent."

Holding a volume of "Explanation of Zhenwu Boxing Techniques" in his hand, Li Qingshan walked out of the library with a helpless expression and said.

To be honest, Li Qingshan was speechless on Wu Ziming's behalf.

This young man was exhausted after a long day and just wanted to relax by reading a couple of books. He was knocked unconscious before he even reached the bookstore. It's outrageous!

"You found me? How is that possible? You're just a mere peak internal energy cultivator, how could you know where I was?"

Upon seeing Li Qingshan appear, a look of shock flashed in the old woman's eyes, and she coldly rebuked him.

Li Qingshan understood that the other party did not intend to speak properly, and he could also sense the strong malice emanating from them.

Then, he flicked the book in his hand slightly, letting it fall back to its original position.

Then, he instantly locked onto the old woman, raised his fist, and arrived in the blink of an eye.

brush!

A sound like the air exploding suddenly rang out in the courtyard, like cloth being torn apart or like fine iron clashing.

puff!

The old woman had just reacted and tried to block when she was struck in the ribs by a punch, and she was sent flying backward as if struck by lightning.

The old woman wiped the blood from her mouth, staring at Li Qingshan in disbelief, her voice trembling slightly:

"You...you're not at the peak of internal energy at all. You've broken through! You're in the True Qi Realm! No, that's not right! You couldn't have just entered the True Qi Realm; you've already reached the mid-stage of the True Qi Realm, capable of breaking stones and shattering jade!"

As she spoke, another stream of blood flowed from the old woman's mouth, and traces of her internal organs could be vaguely seen.

"You don't even know my level of cultivation, yet you dare to assassinate me? Who gave you the courage?"

Li Qingshan looked down at the old man, his tone gradually turning cold.

As if sensing a glimmer of hope, the old woman, using her body posture to help herself back, hurriedly called out:

"No, you misunderstand. I'm not here to kill you. I just want to invite you to see the First Madam."

"Ahem... The Madam has ordered you to see her, that's all, I have no other intentions..."

Li Qingshan nodded and then headed directly towards the Marquis's residence.

As for the old woman who is now seriously injured and on the verge of death?

Li Qingshan could clearly sense the killing intent emanating from the other party. Why keep her alive?

Is it possible to wait for the other party to have an opportunity to continue to make things difficult for you, or even let them kill you?

"No...don't go, I don't want to die, I don't want to die..."

Blood gushed from the old woman's mouth as she murmured and raised her hand, looking at Li Qingshan.

Unfortunately, only Li Qingshan and Wu Ziming were in the huge courtyard of Shuiyun Pavilion.

After Li Qingshan left, Wu Ziming was knocked unconscious and wouldn't wake up for a while.

The guards who were keeping watch not far away only glanced at Li Qingshan and the old woman a few times before disappearing into the night without a trace.

……

After displaying the young lady's token, Li Qingshan arrived at the madam's residence without any hindrance.

As soon as Li Qingshan approached, he was stopped by an old acquaintance who looked remarkably like Iron Tower and had a dark complexion.

Unfortunately, before the other party could make things difficult for Li Qingshan, an eighteen-year-old maid came out to greet him and led him inside.

The First Madam, lying on her side on the bed, exuded charm. Her noble face held a deep gaze as she quietly watched Li Qingshan, who had just entered.

Her red lips parted slightly, revealing syllables that left much to the imagination:

"Li Qingshan, Li Qingshan, you really surprise me. I never expected that a lowly servant like you could break through to the True Qi Realm. It seems that your Nine Yang Physique is indeed extraordinary."

Li Qingshan cupped his hands in greeting but did not reply.

After all, he had seen the guards just now.

Similarly, his actions were merely a warning to the First Madam and the forces behind her that his strength was extraordinary and that they should stop plotting anything.

Otherwise, all sorts of probing, while they might not hurt him, could still be quite annoying.

Seeing that Li Qingshan did not reply, the First Madam turned to the side, seemingly unaware that she had revealed a glimpse of her proud, snow-white skin.

As she examined her slender, long fingers, she quietly said thoughtfully:

"You met Master Guo today and bought a lot of books about martial arts cultivation. Do you want to try to break through to the level of Master?"

If you are willing to cooperate with me, I have a method that will surely make you a grandmaster!
