Chapter 201: Zhao Wei's Failed Breakthrough

While Cheng Feng was handling household matters,

Inside the Tieshan Martial Arts Hall, a woman with a graceful figure, firm gaze, and a heroic aura was closing her doors to visitors, going all out to charge at the bottleneck of the Bone Refining Stage. At this moment, she had been in seclusion for three days and three nights, devoting her entire being to cultivation.

Zhao Wei was dressed in a simple and elegant training outfit, her long hair cascading over her shoulders like a waterfall, her expression firm and focused. She kept her eyes tightly shut, adjusting the rhythm of her breathing, gathering her Blood Qi between the bones of her entire body.

Ever since she learned that the Martial Arts Hall Master's Closed-door Disciple had already reached Bone Refining, Zhao Wei, who was stuck at the bottleneck, could no longer sit still.

Wang Tieshan was also regretful; why had he suddenly blurted out the realm of that kid Cheng Feng, causing Zhao Wei to see a glimmer of hope for a breakthrough while her state of mind was wavering?

Breaking through under such circumstances was undoubtedly extremely dangerous.

As time passed, Zhao Wei's aura gradually became steady and deep. Her skin slowly bulged, becoming as crystal clear as precious jade; that was the Blood Qi circulating rapidly beneath her skin. This was the very sign that she was about to break through the Bone Refining Stage, meaning her bones would receive further strengthening and tempering.

At the final moment of the Blood Qi's rapid circulation, Zhao Wei suddenly opened her eyes, a flash of determination in them. The Blood Qi within her body surged like a roaring river, rushing incessantly into the bones of her arms. At the same time, a powerful momentum erupted from her body, causing the words "Martial Dao" on the secret chamber to rustle and shake.

After a long period of scouring by the Blood Qi, the bones in Zhao Wei's arms were gradually permeated by the Blood Qi. Her arm bones emitted a series of crackling sounds, as if celebrating this historic moment.

But suddenly, Zhao Wei felt the Blood Qi on her arm bones slip out of her control. Like a surging flood that had broken through a dam, the Blood Qi began to crazily scour her bones. This power was exceptionally strong, leaving Zhao Wei unable to control it, forced to let it run rampant.

Zhao Wei's complexion turned pale, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, blood spilled from her mouth and nose, and her body began to tremble slightly. She tried to circulate the Thunderous Violent Blood Art to resist, but that Blood Qi seemed stronger than her bones, easily breaking through the circulation path of her technique. With a "Crack!", the bones in her arm shattered.

Zhao Wei was shocked beyond measure; she had never encountered such a situation. She did not know why this Blood Qi had become so violent. She realized that if she did not find a solution quickly, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Zhao Wei endured the pain, struggling to remain calm as she thought of a countermeasure. However, the Blood Qi became increasingly fierce, as if it wanted to crush all her bones. Zhao Wei gritted her teeth and decided to take a risk.

She took a deep breath, concentrated her mind, and went all out to resist the impact of the Blood Qi. At the same time, she operated the Violent Blood Secret Method, forcibly guiding the Blood Qi to run along a specific path, hoping to resolve the crisis.

Zhao Wei's Violent Blood Secret Method and the Blood Qi engaged in a fierce confrontation within her body; every collision triggered a wave of intense pain. But Zhao Wei did not give up; she bit her teeth tightly, constantly trying to adjust the operation of the secret method, searching for the best point of balance.

After a period of arduous effort, Zhao Wei finally found a glimmer of a turning point. She discovered that when she gathered the Blood Qi at a spot on her chest, she could temporarily suppress the rampage of the Blood Qi.

Thus, she carefully manipulated the secret method, guiding the Blood Qi back onto the right track bit by bit.

However, it was already too late. The Blood Qi gestated in her arms had long since gone out of control, rushing against her fragile bones like a surging flood, mercilessly scouring them into smithereens.

Zhao Wei's heart was filled with unwillingness and despair; she could not accept such a tragic failure, but she was powerless to turn things around.

After her mind became dazed, the Blood Qi in her chest was no longer controlled by the Violent Blood Secret Method and began to run wild. Under the expansion of the Blood Qi, Zhao Wei's chest bulged.

"Puff..." Zhao Wei spat out a large mouthful of blood, her bright eyes turning dim, with feelings of despair and regret spreading within them.

She should have listened to her master and not compared herself to Cheng Feng; unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret.

Now, she had become a cripple.

Hong Mansion.

Cheng Feng was having a good time with Meiniang; Meiniang had actually said she wanted to bear him offspring.

Naturally, he had to satisfy this trivial little request of his woman.

Cai'er had also sent letters to Cheng Feng, and Cheng Feng was even more relaxed and bold in enjoying Meiniang's various services.

High-slit cheongsam, skin-tight silk stockings; for more charm, Cheng Feng even found a cobbler to custom-make a pair of high heels for Meiniang.

The other women looked on with envy; although they were hard to wear, they were truly beautiful!

Cheng Feng waved his hand, giving two pairs to each, which finally made things fair.

Not long after they finished, Lao San's voice came: "Second Brother, Second Brother, the Martial Arts Hall Master is calling for you! Senior Sister Zhao Wei failed her breakthrough to the Bone Refining Stage!"

This news was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Cheng Feng completely stunned. He widened his eyes, unable to believe what he had just heard.

Zhao Wei was the Senior Sister of the Martial Arts Hall! Her strength had always been the focus of everyone's attention. And now, she had actually failed her breakthrough to the Bone Refining Stage?

What was even more shocking was that Lao San continued: "I heard that after Zhao Wei failed her breakthrough this time, the bones in her chest and arms were completely shattered; I'm afraid she won't live long. The Martial Arts Hall Master is calling for all disciples who can come to the Martial Arts Hall, especially you."

This sentence struck Cheng Feng's heart like a heavy hammer, and his complexion turned deathly pale.

What on earth was going on? Why did it turn out like this? How could she suddenly fail her breakthrough?

A series of questions flooded his mind, and Cheng Feng fell into deep confusion. He couldn't help but think of Zhao Wei's usual guidance and help toward him, his heart filled with worry and sadness.

Zhao Wei had always been a role model in his heart and the driving force for him to move forward. Now that he learned she had encountered such a misfortune, Cheng Feng found it hard to accept for a moment.

Once upon a time, Cheng Feng had even fantasized about something happening between himself and that heroic Senior Sister.

After all, who wouldn't love a heroic, understanding, and beautiful Senior Sister?

Cheng Feng had always had a good impression of her, but due to his own complicated situation, he hadn't had the chance to build a relationship.

This made Cheng Feng deeply realize that the path of martial cultivation for normal people was not a smooth one, but one filled with thorns, containing countless hardships and dangers.

Every step required caution, and the slightest mistake could lead to serious consequences. Senior Sister's unfortunate encounter was a vivid example, which caused a wave of anxiety to rise in Cheng Feng's heart, and he couldn't help but worry about Xu Miao's future.

Xu Miao was about to face the critical moment of her breakthrough, yet the effect of the Tiger Bone Soup was not obvious, and she couldn't help but feel anxious. Although Cheng Feng was willing to continue investing resources to support her,

Xu Miao's mood was becoming increasingly low, and she even lost confidence in the Tiger Bone Soup. She told Cheng Feng that she didn't want to drink the Tiger Bone Soup anymore because she felt it was already meaningless.

Cheng Feng naturally would not listen to Xu Miao's opinion. He knew well that Xu Miao was currently in an emotional trough and needed more care and comfort.

On one hand, he gently stroked Xu Miao's hair, comforting her not to worry and that everything would be fine.

On the other hand, he once again requested the Lin Family to purchase more tiger bones, Sky Eye Grass, and True Orchid Flower.

After all, for Cheng Feng, his own woman deserved the best care and love.
