From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

Just as Lian'er was about to follow, the door slammed shut.

Chen Shi didn't eat her meat pie; instead, she was turned away by Chen Shi.

Lian'er stood at the door, reaching out to knock, but hesitated slightly and withdrew. After a moment of hesitation, her gaze lowered, and she put the meat pie back into her bosom.

Inside the room, Chen Shi sat cross-legged.

Blood and qi circulate within the body, and are refined into essence blood through the Heavenly Body.

Cultivation is the foundation of everything!

Even if there's a lot to learn now, you should still make time to practice as much as possible.

Only by refining a sufficient amount of essence and blood, reaching a level where essence and blood flow like a tide, can one condense a Dharma body and enter the fifth-grade realm.

Previously, he had engaged in yin-yang intercourse with the dragon and taken its primordial yin, which greatly increased the essence and blood in Chen's body. However, even so, it was only 30% of the original essence and blood.

If that's the case, even with Chen Shi's abundant blood and qi and cultivation speed far exceeding that of ordinary people, it would still take at least ten years and at most twenty years to achieve success through painstaking, gradual cultivation.

It can be said that the task is arduous and the road ahead is long.

In reality, many people who reach the sixth rank in their cultivation never manage to advance to the fifth rank in their entire lives, not because they lack talent or sufficient time to cultivate, but because they fail to persevere for that long.

Laziness and procrastination have led to old age, depletion of blood and weakened body, limiting one to the sixth rank.

Chen Shi was aware of the difficulty of obtaining a fifth-rank official position, but his resolve remained unwavering.

Half an hour later, after refining only a drop of essence blood, it was time for class. Chen Shi let out a soft breath, got up and went out.

"Young master."

Lian'er stood outside the door, looking at Chen Shi with excitement on her face.

Chen Shi left without saying a word, his face expressionless.

Just like yesterday, we arrived at the school to listen to the lecture, which was still about marching and setting up camp.

Although it is basic knowledge, it cannot be explained in just a few words. This lesson will take three days.

Compared to yesterday, only Chen Shi remains today.

Although there was only Chen Shi present, the teacher still spoke in great detail, and Chen Shi listened attentively.

"Thank you for your guidance, sir."

Two hours later, the lecture ended, and Chen Shi stood up to express his gratitude and prepare to leave.

"Don't rush off."

The gentleman reached out and called to Chen Shi, smiling as he spoke.

"I don't see any other students attending this class. You've been here for two days already, and there's only one day's worth of material left. If you're not in a hurry to go back, I'll continue and finish tomorrow's material as well."

"That would be perfect, then I'll trouble you, sir."

Chen Shi's face lit up with joy. After thanking him again, he sat back down in his original seat.

The teacher nodded and continued the lesson.

And so, two more hours passed in the blink of an eye.

The methods of marching and setting up camp, as well as the matters to be aware of, have all been explained.

Looking outside now, it was already pitch black.

"Thank you for your hard work, sir."

Chen Shi stood up, looking ashamed.

"He even missed dinner because he was giving me a lecture."

"I have something to do tomorrow, so you're the one who helped me. It's nothing to skip a meal."

The gentleman smiled and handed the book in his hand to Chen Shi.

"The content covered in these three days is all recorded in this book; you can take it home and read it."

"Thank you, sir."

Chen Shi thanked him again and accepted the gift with both hands.

The man waved his hand and said directly.

"I borrowed this book from the hospital. You can return it after you've finished reading it."

"Yes."

Chen Shi nodded, casually flipping through two pages, and confirmed that it was indeed what the teacher had been talking about these past two days.

Although Chen Shi had a good memory, there were many key points, and many parts required repeated contemplation. Having this book as a reference made things much easier.

The man waved his hand, said nothing more, and left.

It was getting late, so Chen Shi turned and went back.

"Young Master is back!"

Back at the barracks, Lian'er was still standing at the door, seemingly having been there all day.

He excitedly strode forward and pulled the two meat pies out of his pocket again.

"Have you had dinner yet, young master? This pancake is a bit cold, but it will still fill you up."

Chen Shi didn't even look at it and went straight into the house.

It was getting late, so I sat cross-legged on the bed and counted my breaths to enter a state of tranquility.

The night deepened.

Squeak~

The door was slowly pushed open a crack, and a figure quietly walked in.

By the moonlight, when they saw Chen Shi sitting on the bed, they were startled.

Then, seeing that Chen Shi was motionless and breathing evenly, and that he must have fallen asleep although he was sitting, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He paused slightly, then tiptoed up to Chen Shi.

Without the slightest hesitation, she reached out and unbuttoned her clothes, which slid down to her ankles like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.

Under the milky moonlight, her perfect body was as smooth and lustrous as jade.

They then rushed toward Chen Shi, who was sitting there.

"If you come any closer, I'll break your legs."

Chen Shi closed his eyes and spoke softly.

Lian'er was instantly jolted and froze on the spot.

After a long pause, he finally opened his mouth and spoke.

"Lian'er meant no harm; she simply wanted to serve you, young master, and repay your great kindness."

As she spoke, a wave of grievance welled up inside her, and she couldn't help but sob.

"go out."

Chen Shi remained expressionless, not even opening his eyes, and his voice was calm without any inflection.

Lian'er paused for a moment, then came to her senses, bit her lip lightly, and said in a huff.

"Young master, may you open your eyes?"

Chen Shi did not respond.

"Young master, are you afraid to look at Lian'er with your eyes closed?"

Lian'er raised her head slightly, her tone carrying a hint of provocation.

This shows that he won't give up until he's completely defeated. Immediately afterwards, Chen Shi opened his eyes and looked at Lian'er.

Seeing that Chen Shi had opened his eyes, Lian'er was overjoyed and straightened up in the moonlight.

"Young master, is Lian'er beautiful?"

"You can get out now."

"..."

Lian'er, who was about to unleash her charm, opened her mouth but froze in place again.

This...this isn't right.

Shouldn't Chen Shi have shown some struggle, and after a struggle, finally lost his temper and tackled her to the ground?

Chen Shi's reaction is wrong!

She couldn't believe that a normal adult man could be completely oblivious to her body and feel no lust whatsoever.

Ok?

Thinking of this, Lian'er couldn't help but pause, her gaze shifting slightly downwards.

Is Chen Shi incapable?

"If you don't leave now, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Chen Shi spoke again, his gaze towards Lian'er chilling, revealing a hint of murderous intent.

Although it is already August, the summer heat has not subsided. Under Chen Shi's gaze, Lian'er couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine and shiver all over.

He swallowed hard, squatted down to pick up his clothes, and awkwardly left the house.

Chen Shi glanced at the door that had been closed again and gave a cold smile.

Although she had some beauty, in Chen Shi's eyes she was nothing more than an ordinary woman, not even a tenth or a twelfth as beautiful as Xiao Fengxiao and Cui Nong.

How could he possibly be tempted?

Although he was a womanizer, his palate had become extremely discerning.

Ignore it, continue counting breaths to enter a state of tranquility, and nourish your spirit.

And so the night passed.

The next morning, Chen Shi woke up and went outside, only to see Lian'er standing at the door, holding a basin of water.

"Lian'er just brought some warm water, young master, please wash your face."

Lian'er spoke with a docile expression, as if she had completely forgotten the humiliation of last night.

Chen Shi glanced at it, picked up a towel, soaked it, and wiped his face.

Then they left immediately.

"I refuse to believe there's such a heartless man in the world. I'm going to stick with you!"

Watching Chen Shi's retreating figure without turning back, Lian'er forcefully splashed the water aside, gritting her teeth and muttering to herself.
