Chapter 178: Qingluo Technique

~8 min read 1,461 words

After distributing the silver that was to be shared, the Hong Sect disciples used the silver they received to diligently improve themselves.

Regardless of where the disciples came from, as long as they had achievements, they had a chance to enter the Training Camp.

In the Training Camp, the strong are respected; having strength to rely on is certainly the best thing.

Meanwhile, Cheng Feng was also handling matters following the expansion.

Liu Yishou of the Zougun Gang directly defected upon hearing of the Hong Sect's battle achievements.

According to normal circumstances, one has to offer some silver as tribute; after all, the destroyed gangs had brought so many benefits to the Hong Sect, so shouldn't you show some appreciation with your manpower?

Liu Yishou was also an old hand in the world; after thinking it over, he feared that silver would not be enough to attract the attention of the Hong Sect's upper echelons, so he directly brought out his own bottom-of-the-box cultivation technique and martial skill that very day as capital for advancement.

"This Gang Leader Liu is also a person who can be ruthless," Cheng Feng commented like this while looking at the cultivation technique and martial skill before him.

The cultivation technique is called Qingluo Technique; Cheng Feng compared it and found it could also reach the Bone Refining Stage, but it could only reach the Bone Refining Initial Stage, with the later realms completely missing, but the advantage was that the auxiliary medicinal materials were common.

The accompanying martial skill is called Tanyun Hand, specializing in hand techniques, with the goal of nimble changes.

It is truly a must-have for a thief.

It just so happens that he will let Liu Yishou and Wang Hu partner up, incorporate the entire Zougun Gang into Black Ear, and provide intelligence for the Hong Sect.

Cheng Feng is certain that the Thunder Blood-Bursting Art has a follow-up, but he is currently too busy to go find his master.

Cheng Feng is currently mainly practicing the accompanying martial skill, Thunder Blade Technique.

Since Liu Yishou presented the Qingluo Technique and Tanyun Hand, a craze for cultivation has set off within the Hong Sect.

Although the Qingluo Technique only reaches the Bone Refining Initial Stage, for many disciples, it is already a rare and precious resource, especially the ease of obtaining the auxiliary medicinal materials, which greatly lowered the threshold for cultivation.

At the same time, Cheng Feng did not neglect the improvement of his own cultivation.

While working hard to add points in anger, he also got Zheng Ya and Xiao Qing pregnant with his offspring.

Naturally, Spring Rain and Summer Lotus became Cheng Feng's new favorites.

The children were also handed over to maids with gentle temperaments among the servants to be raised.

Spring Rain and Summer Lotus, having just experienced the rain and dew, also completed their transformation from young girls to young matrons.

It is a pity that the two of them could still only bring Cheng Feng a small amount of gain at a time.

Sometimes Cheng Feng often wonders if he should look for more young girls with extremely high Martial Dao aptitude like Yu Niang and Xu Miao.

But in the vast sea of people, where can such talent be found!

Hong Sect Dungeon

Shi Xiaodao and two other Skin Refining Initial Stage martial artists from small gangs were imprisoned together by Hong Sect disciples.

The dungeon was dark and damp, but the three Skin Refining martial artists were not affected much.

"Shi Xiaodao, how were you captured? Could it be that your gang was also wiped out by the Hong Sect?"

A Skin Refining martial artist who once had a grudge with Shi Xiaodao asked curiously; now that they were all prisoners, it was uncertain when they might not see tomorrow's sun.

Seeing his old rival also suffering, he no longer had his usual arrogance in his heart.

"Gang Leader Zhang Feng, we are fifty steps laughing at a hundred steps; we are six of one and half a dozen of the other, so neither should laugh at the other," Shi Xiaodao replied irritably.

"Do you two really know nothing? When I was taken, I heard that the Hong Sect had also wiped out the Wolf Head Gang, and it was right in front of Elder Zhao Tai of the Green Bamboo Gang. The Hong Sect hall master at the time was overjoyed," the third martial artist interjected.

"Hiss~ Really?"

"Wu Jiang, that can't be, right?"

Shi Xiaodao and Zhang Feng both gasped in unison.

Shi Xiaodao said with a pale face: "We were all captured on the same night. How many people does the Hong Sect have? How many martial artists? How many experts?"

Wu Jiang shook his head and said: "Who knows? Anyway, since they captured us, it means we probably still have some value; otherwise, hehe."

After Wu Jiang finished speaking, he didn't make much noise, which instead left Shi Xiaodao and Zhang Feng feeling confused.

From afar came the "creak" of a door opening, harsh and drawn out.

It made the three people in the cell look over one after another.

Seeing the appearance of the person coming, the three were even more shocked: "Xu Le, why are you here?"

By the firelight, they looked at the Hong Sect uniform on Xu Le.

All three were a bit numb; didn't the rumors on the street say that Xu Le of the Sishui Gang had already been killed?

How did he suddenly pop up? And wearing a Hong Sect disciple's uniform.

Zhang Feng, who had met Xu Le a few times, saw the cold atmosphere and said with hope: "Xu Le, are you here to save us?"

Hearing these naive words, Xu Le sneered: "Gang Leader Zhang is truly humorous!"

He then turned cold and said: "It's a pity, no, I've disappointed you."

Zhang Feng had expected this: "I was just seeing that the scene was a bit cold, just warming it up."

On the other hand, Shi Xiaodao said coldly: "Then Xu Le, what do you want to do by coming here?"

Xu Le said calmly: "I have only one thing to tell you: the Hong Sect has limited spots and only wants to keep one useful person. You understand what that means now!"

Mutual slaughter? The three pairs of eyes instantly became wary of each other.

Which one of those who could become a gang leader would be a pushover?

Knowing people, identifying people, social interaction, strength, and eyes and ears—which one could you lack and still be a gang leader?

Wouldn't you have been backstabbed and killed by someone long ago?

Xu Le watched the situation before him become tense because of a single sentence.

In his heart, he felt even more awe for that brother-in-law.

Ever since Xu Le was released, Cheng Feng had also clearly told him that his sister Xu Miao had already become Cheng Feng's woman, which is why Xu Le was spared.

If he wanted his sister to live well, Xu Le needed to perform excellently.

Therefore, for the three-month assessment of the Training Camp, Xu Le was truly risking his life.

Fortunately, the Martial Dao foundation he had left previously was still there, so he wouldn't lose to some ordinary people.

It was precisely the training life at the Hong Sect Training Camp that let Xu Le know there were many people in this world desperately struggling for their future and for silver.

The more Xu Le thought about it, the more he regretted his actions toward his sister; how could he have wasted such good times in the past?

The more he regretted, the harder he worked; in Xu Le's cohort, he was also qualified in the final Training Camp evaluation.

Only after the Renmen Mark was branded did Cheng Feng bring Xu Miao to see this younger brother whose temperament and disposition had undergone a great change.

Naturally, Xu Le would not show any good expression toward Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng did not need one either.

Only Xu Miao watched the changes in her younger brother, keeping firmly in mind Cheng Feng's warning not to tell him the fact that she had already recovered.

Xu Miao naturally understood Cheng Feng's intentions, and after saying some words of concern to Xu Le, she was taken away by Cheng Feng.

Since then, Xu Miao became even more attentive and devoted to Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng also thoroughly understood what it meant for a good person to be rewarded; his Fortune Points were climbing rapidly.

Meanwhile, Xu Le, who was kept in the dark, continued to work hard to prove himself, hoping that his brother-in-law Cheng Feng would treat his sister better.
