My Cultivation Starting from Archery

Chen Sansi nodded his head.

"It seems that the Poisonous Beasts are born under the influence of Evil Qi."

But as of now, no one knows exactly what happened that led to the increase of Evil Qi year by year in the Luotian Mountain Range.

Immortal Traces...

But that is a matter of the distant future, I'm afraid it will require experiencing Mysterious Phenomena, or even after becoming a Martial Saint, to explore there."

For now, the first task is to achieve Hua Jin and, on top of that, by practicing Sword Qi Skill, I should take care of the trouble that is Yin Hanwen.

"Many thanks, miss, I shall take my leave!"

Chen Sansi said as he prepared to leave.

"Eh, General, you cannot go."

Ning Xiang hurriedly stopped him, "You've spent a large sum of five thousand taels of silver; if you leave now and someone outside notices anything amiss, revealing your identity, what will you do? Rest for a night and leave tomorrow; besides, if you wanted to do something else, it wouldn't be out of the question."

"..."

Chen Sansi had received something from someone else and had to show some respect.

He didn't refuse, "Must your Seeking Immortal Tower always operate in such places?" Explore more adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

"I too need to make a living," Ning Xiang explained, "You think seeking immortality doesn't cost silver?"

Without saying anything more, Chen Sansi asked her to find him a theatrical spear used for opera, and he started training right in the room.

He dared not get involved with a woman of uncertain background, let alone get tangled with Immortal Laws. Even if it wasn't a matter of life and death, there could still be other traps.

The effect of the Spiritual Rice Medicine Ointment inside him was still active.

Lately, his progress hadn't fallen behind either.

[Progress: 71/100]

Before he knew it, it was dawn and, looking at Ning Xiang and Zhaozhao, one was asleep on a bed which had only half remained intact, and the other was passed out on the table.

Before leaving, he woke up Ning Xiang, "Hey, give me back my silver."

That was five thousand taels!

To take a risk with his life in killing a Huang Tianrong and to receive such a reward, how could he just leave it here?

The matter of spirit sand was a separate transaction and had nothing to do with the silver.

"General, you want a freebie?" Ning Xiang said with an angry look, "You've broken the bed and now you're not even willing to shell out a single copper coin!"

"Woman, where did I touch you!" Chen Sansi urged, "I'm in no mood to waste words with you; I still have to return to the camp for roll call!"

"Why so fierce~"

Ning Xiang, as if truly scared, hastily found several silver notes.

Chen Sansi stuffed the silver notes into his bosom and strode away.

After his departure, he faintly heard sobbing coming from behind him.

"Sigh, such an actor."

Chen Sansi felt too powerless to complain further and called Qian Xun before heading straight to the Military City.

After roll call, he received some news.

Sha Wenlong had been transferred to the Sky Wolf Camp, and the Deputy General of the Reserve Camp was replaced by a Deputy General from the Cloud Camp, clearly someone had orchestrated this deliberately.

This was a good thing.

Having a direct superior harboring ill intentions and wanting you dead was utterly terrifying, especially within the army, where many orders simply had to be obeyed, even if it meant marching to one's death.

It was just unknown who was behind it.

The most likely candidate could only be Senior Sister Nine.

Just as Brother Fang had said, Sister Rong Yanqiu could be relied upon, and I really should thank her properly later.

...

"Did you do it?"

At the Martial Arts Arena.

Cao Fan questioned, "Stop playing dumb, I'm talking about the matter with the Yu Yang Sect. Did you have Sha Wenlong set him up to encounter a Hua Jing Warrior, aiming to use this as an opportunity to murder by proxy?"

"Young Master, it was me..."

Yin Hanwen explained, "I wanted to relieve the Young Master of your worries! Your lifespan bears the great responsibility of the Great Sheng Dynasty and the Thirty-Six States; how could you waste it on vying for a momentary victory against such a person?"

"Don't worry, Young Master. He doesn't have any evidence, and Sha Wenlong, as our staunch loyalist, most certainly won't spill the beans. If worst comes to worst, we'll find another opportunity later on."

"Dismiss yourself."

Cao Fan did not blame him but said indifferently, "Since you're not participating in the Selected Point and currently have no position in Liangzhou, I worry that when Supervisor Sun returns, if this matter were to be investigated, it might not be explainable."

"Supervisor Sun may not return for some time, and Young Master, don't you trust me?"

Yin Hanwen hastily said, "Even if it traces back to me, I alone will take responsibility for my actions!"

"Do you think that it ending with you, this Young Master could escape implication?"

Cao Fan frowned, "Even if I eventually defeat Chen Sansi, I still have to win over the Supervisor's favorable impression; otherwise, I will still not access the True Inheritance."

"Young Master, this fault lies with me!"

Yin Hanwen finally realized, "I will leave and not stay to drag the Young Master down."

"Mm."

Cao Fan patted his shoulder, "Help your father with his work more. In the future, you can also lend me a helping hand. Once I command respect within the Liangzhou Army, I will invite you back."

Yin Hanwen promised, "I'll leave at the end of this month, once my arrow wounds have healed."

Cao Fan did not speak further but took up the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade to continue his training.

In recent times, he had reached a point of complete devotion to practice.

"Dammit!"

Once out of sight, Yin Hanwen slammed his fist into the Training Post, "How could a Refining Internal manage to overpower a Hua Jing! Why? If this continues, he really could cause huge trouble for the Young Master in the future; no, I absolutely cannot let him live!"

"Elder Wei, I need your help!"

He turned his gaze to the Meridian Passage Martial Artist that his family patronized, "Help me kill him!"

"Young Master, that's not a good idea."

Elder Wei advised, "Killing someone in Liangzhou City will definitely lead to a thorough investigation."

"Then wait until we leave Liangzhou, and make it known to everyone when we leave to clear any suspicions!"

"Afterward, Elder Wei, you can double back to commit the murder and blame it on the Witch God Sect!"

"Elder Wei, it's all up to you now!"
