After all your diligent years with the Yang Family, how could I let you leave empty-handed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Yang Wu turned to the steward beside him and said, \"Go fetch twenty taels of silver!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Wu’s sudden change in attitude took Zou Feng by surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Yang Wu had clearly been displeased with him before. After a token attempt to make him stay, he couldn’t wait for Zou Feng to get lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This change of heart was, of course, related to the earlier sparring match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why Yang Wu now wanted to preserve this connection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a casual, inconsequential investment for him. What if Zou Feng really did manage to make a name for himself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having been the Yang Family Patriarch for so long, Yang Wu was well aware of the potential benefits that could come from forging good relationships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior, this...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s no need to refuse. It is a small token of my appreciation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zou Feng stopped being modest. \"Then I thank you, Patriarch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By addressing him as Patriarch again, Zou Feng was making it clear that he accepted the gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Zou Feng’s words, the frustration Yang Wu had been feeling finally eased considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right, also bring three Qi Blood Pills—the pure kind!\" Yang Wu shouted to the steward, who hadn’t gone far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the other party had accepted his goodwill, Yang Wu naturally upped the ante.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, a situation that had seemed destined to end on bad terms was resolved amicably, all thanks to Zou Feng’s carefully orchestrated performance showcasing his \"Talent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had basically become a win-win situation for everyone involved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Zou Feng take the \"farewell gift\" from Yang Wu and walk out of the hall, Yang Qianqian was completely baffled by her father’s actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family wasn’t short on such things, but that didn’t mean they could just be thrown away carelessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, why did you have to do that...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That boy has clearly gotten arrogant after reaching Entering Grade. Once he’s out in the world, he’ll offend people far too easily.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In a few days, he’ll probably get caught up in some Jianghu conflict and come running back to us for protection like a beaten dog.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Wu shot his daughter an exasperated look. ’And you have the nerve to say *he* offends people easily!?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the end, he couldn’t bring himself to say it out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He let out a soft sigh and said earnestly, \"Qianqian, listen to your father: never bully a young man for being poor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qianqian looked up and rolled her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, as Zou Feng stepped out of the hall, he was met with a round of congratulations from the people outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who originally harbored their own little schemes immediately lost all interest after seeing Zou Feng fight Yang Chen to a draw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jealousy only exists for those within your line of sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once you can no longer even see their back, there is no room for jealousy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are your plans after leaving the mansion?\" Zhao Tianhu stepped forward and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zou Feng replied, \"First, I’ll go to the Government Office and take care of my manumission.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And then... I’ll go to Hengyu Building to listen to some music and celebrate,\" Zou Feng joked casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Tianhu laughed along for a moment before his expression turned serious. \"Actually, you won’t have to do anything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once word of what just happened gets out... all the major powers in Yuan Guang County will, without a doubt, actively try to recruit you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Zou Feng already had a general idea of the situation he would face after leaving the Yang Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a small place like Yuan Guang County, an independent Entering Grade Martial Artist with a clean background was a highly sought-after commodity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a gang like the Black Flood Dragon Gang, an Entering Grade Martial Artist could basically become an Incense Master right away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Zou Feng had also done his research and knew that the value of a Martial Artist who achieved Entering Grade through Pile Skill was greatly diminished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since he had started his martial arts training so late in life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was why he had been looking for an opportunity to show off a little more of his \"Talent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the spar with Yang Chen just now, even though it looked like a draw on the surface, its true significance was that it had immediately and drastically increased his market value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The factions that wanted to recruit him would now offer much more sincere terms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the condition Zou Feng cared most about wasn’t actually silver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather, it was finding a place where he could acquire various Evil Skills and easily obtain the corresponding cultivation resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’And it’d be best if it’s a place where it’s easy to make enemies...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Of course, the prerequisite is that those people can’t be the type I can’t afford to offend.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had figured it out now. Due to the high probability that he would need to raise a Human Gu, breaking through to the next realm of his Five Poison Skill in a short amount of time was no longer realistic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, if he wanted to maintain his pace of advancing by leaps and bounds, he would need more Evil Skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as he piled up enough Evil Skills, a quantitative change would naturally lead to a qualitative one, allowing him to advance to Eighth Grade as soon as possible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While laying low as a Household Slave in the Yang Mansion, reaching Entering Grade gave Zou Feng the satisfying feeling of being a hidden master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But out in the world, Ninth Grade truly didn’t provide enough of a sense of security.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to reach Eighth Grade quickly before considering anything else...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the Yang Mansion, Zhao Tianhu was still by his side, clearly intending to accompany him to the Government Office to handle his manumission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaozou, when you make it big in the future, don’t forget to give your big brother a hand!\" Zhao Tianhu was a straightforward man who never minced words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t actually that old and was unwilling to simply waste his years away as a mansion guard in the Yang Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zou Feng nodded. \"Brother Hu, don’t worry. Once I’m settled and need a hand, just make sure you don’t refuse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Tianhu let out a hearty laugh. \"I knew I wasn’t wrong about you! You’re destined for great things!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bantering like this, they soon arrived at the entrance of the Government Office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because a notice had already been sent, someone was already waiting for them outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, at the moment of his manumission, Zou Feng would have had the opportunity to meet the County Magistrate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Magistrate Huang was occupied with important official business and wasn’t at the Government Office at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Zou Feng only met Steward Sun of the Government Office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Steward Sun also seemed very busy. He offered a few casual words of encouragement and then left in a hurry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Steward Sun left, Zhao Tianhu explained, \"Don’t be fooled by Steward Sun’s appearance as a frail scholar. He’s an Eighth Grade expert!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Huh? The government stewards are all Eighth Grade experts?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t that Zou Feng had poor judgment; he could actually tell that Steward Sun was a practitioner. But without the use of Inner Qi, it was truly difficult to discern someone’s specific grade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A junior official was responsible for handling the specific paperwork.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire process took no more than the time it takes to eat a meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zou Feng walked out of the Government Office again, he was finally, officially a free man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Huh. The air of freedom doesn’t taste any sweeter...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Zou Feng was about to invite Zhao Tianhu for a celebratory drink, someone came striding quickly toward them from across the street, a wide smile on their face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Excuse me, young master, but might you be Zou Feng of the Yang Mansion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1443,"2026-05-29T16:26:41.045Z","2026-06-01T04:29:44.377Z",1,"novelbin.me","a4e2c10a80ae16627401e00ea1fbe640bd86add79812dcd11c071eec6bb3cc44","i-can-transfer-the-side-effects-of-evil-skills-chapter-49","i-can-transfer-the-side-effects-of-evil-skills-chapter-47",429,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-transfer-the-side-effects-of-evil-skills-cover.jpg"]
