From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

As dawn broke, the city gates opened, and after entering the city, Chen Shi jogged all the way back to the Marquis's residence.

If Xiao Fengxiao catches him being late again and really doesn't let him continue living in Sweetwater Lane, wouldn't that be a huge loss?

As for Zhe Liu, she parted ways with Chen Shi after entering the city, only saying that she would contact him if needed. If Chen Shi needed her, as Yan Yi, she would be there for him at any time.

Good morning, Brother Chen.

"morning."

After checking in, Chen Shi first went to the second gate for a stroll. Seeing that there was nothing going on in the courtyard, he turned around and left.

He is now Gu Chengze's personal servant, only needing to do things for Gu Chengze. However, Gu Chengze finds him an eyesore and doesn't need him around, leaving him with completely free time.

Chen Shi did not follow Gu Chengze's instructions to go to the inner courtyard to loiter in front of Xiao Fengxiao, but instead came to the medicine hut.

"They're here."

"Um."

He greeted Mu Yunsheng like an old friend and then began to help organize the medicinal herbs.

Once everything was almost done, I picked up the bamboo pole and went to an open space to practice my skills.

It was still the same Night Battle Eight Directions Seven Styles. The moves were simple to begin with, and with a lot of practice, they were already very familiar with them.

But unlike before, as he used the moves, Chen Shi vaguely felt that the blood and energy in his body were being stirred and drawn together.

"It works!"

Although the fluctuations in blood and qi were very small, it finally started to move!

Instead of remaining stagnant like before.

In this way, he will eventually reach the Qi Explosion Realm and become an eighth-rank martial artist.

Chen Shi was overjoyed and became even more energetic in his cultivation.

Mu Yunsheng, who was grinding medicinal herbs, glanced at Chen Shi, who was practicing martial arts, then looked away and continued to focus on his own work.

Chen Shi became more and more enthusiastic, and only stopped after more than an hour.

He was hungry.

The poor study literature, the rich study martial arts. Practicing martial arts is extremely physically demanding. He didn't eat last night or this morning, so he can't hold on any longer.

However, this also shows that the current cultivation method is indeed effective.

"I didn't prepare breakfast for you, so you can have this first."

Mu Yunsheng said calmly, placing a pill the size of a longan, bright yellow all over, on the stone table.

Chen Shi picked it up, but before he could even put it to his mouth, he smelled a strong medicinal aroma. Already starving, his mouth watered instantly.

Without hesitation, he immediately put it in his mouth and swallowed it.

The mouth was immediately filled with a delicious aroma. After the pills dissolved in the stomach, the hunger quickly disappeared, and a sense of satisfaction from being full gradually emerged.

"What is this?!"

Greatly surprised, Chen Shi couldn't help but ask a question.

"You dare to eat it without knowing what it is."

Mu Yunsheng made a rare joke, then spoke calmly.

"This is the Six Qi Pill. It was originally a pill to regulate the six qi, but because it contains some medicinal materials rich in essence and qi, it can also satisfy hunger."

"I never expected there to be such a good thing."

"What good stuff is this? Although the Six Qi Pill has a mild effect, it is still medicine and cannot be eaten as food."

That's such a pity.

"Dull-witted and slow-witted."

Mu Yunsheng shook his head and ignored Chen Shi.

Chen Shi smiled and decided to continue his cultivation now that he had filled his stomach.

They practiced until noon. Mu Yunsheng went to the kitchen to get some food. Knowing that Chen Shi was expending a lot of energy practicing, she specially got a lot of hearty meat dishes.

How could a woman eat so much? But everyone knows that martial artists have big appetites, and Mu Yunsheng was a person from the martial arts world, so they assumed she also practiced martial arts, so no one thought much of it.

After lunch, Chen Shi helped Mu Yunsheng with some chores, and then continued practicing his martial arts.

Until sunset.

After leaving the medicine hut, Chen Shi wandered around the second gate for a while before heading off work at dusk.

"I thought you weren't coming back tonight either."

In the courtyard, Cui Nong glanced at Bai Chenshi with a mixture of reproach and resentment, and handed him a wrung-out towel.

Chen Shi took the towel, wiped his face and hands, and then suddenly hugged Cui Nong tightly.

"Go buy some food and drinks, let's celebrate tonight."

"……Why."

Cui Nong, who had just been carrying a hint of resentment, instantly shed all her resentment and responded with a shy smile.

Then she picked up the basket, humming a little tune, and went out the door.

"Buy more meat!"

Chen Shi smiled and called out to Cui Nong's retreating figure.

Cui Nong did not respond. When she returned, the basket was filled with all kinds of meat, except for a pot of old wine.

As usual, Cui Nong set out the food and wine, changed her clothes and put on makeup before coming out from the inner room.

Chen Shi, who was practicing martial arts in the courtyard, stopped, wiped his hands and face, and went inside.

They filled their glasses and sat facing each other.

"What are we celebrating today?"

When they were halfway through their drinks, Cui Nong held up the half-finished glass of wine in front of Chen Shi, gazing at him with seductive eyes.

"Can't we celebrate for no reason?"

Chen Shi drank the half-cup of wine directly from Cui Nong's hand, revealing a wicked smile.

"Pah, you little pervert."

Cui Nong spat lightly, then blushed again.

He thought to himself, "I've really spoiled him; now he doesn't even bother to come up with excuses."

"Didn't you want to eat meat? Eat more."

She felt sorry for Chen Shi's hard work in practicing martial arts and kept putting food on his plate.

"I'm not in a hurry to eat the meat, I'll eat you first!"

Looking at the alluring Cui Nong, Chen Shi could no longer restrain himself. He suddenly stood up, picked up Cui Nong, and carried her into the inner room.

Cui Nong did not resist, but wrapped her arms around Chen Shi's neck.

The curtain fell, and a moment later, accompanied by the creaking of the bed, the breathing gradually intensified.

More than an hour later, Cui Nong lay on the bed, feeling completely limp. Chen Shi, however, did not lie down to savor the afterglow as usual. Instead, he quickly dressed and went to the courtyard.

Take a deep breath and begin practicing.

"Working so hard."

Hearing Chen Shi practicing his martial arts, Cui Nong didn't even have the strength to lift her arm. She mumbled something and fell into a deep sleep.

In the courtyard, Chen Shi held a woodcutter's knife in his hand, repeatedly unleashing the Seven Styles of Night Battle.

With each strike, the blood and energy within his body surged ever more intensely.

If Chen Shi's blood and energy were a lake, then his swordsmanship practice would be the stones thrown in, and with each stone falling into the water, the ripples would grow larger and larger.

When the waves surge and break free of the embankment, that's when the explosion occurs!

"It's definitely much stronger."

After practicing twice, Chen Shi was overjoyed.

He could clearly feel that the surge of blood energy was much greater now than during the day, meaning the cultivation effect was much better.

Zhe Liu was right after all. Getting yourself excited first will make your cultivation speed much faster.

Taking advantage of the lingering effects, Chen Shi focused on his cultivation.

Half an hour later, the cultivation speed returned to its usual level.

At the same time, a strong feeling of hunger struck.

Chen Shi returned to the room, grabbed the remaining meat on the table and stuffed it into his mouth. With the remaining half-pot of wine, he swept the leftover food off the table and felt satisfied.

He got up and went back to the inner room, where he saw Cui Nong still lying there naked and clean. His heart stirred again.

Cultivation is something that cannot be neglected.

Come again.

"what!"

In her sleep, Cui Nong was awakened by a scream, and she playfully punched Chen Shi with her small fists, both complaining and shy.

"You wretch! You're trying to kill me tonight!"
