Immortality Begins by Taking Care of Master’s Wife – Chapter 48

Chapter 48: Body Refinement, Seventh Level

Snow Moon Workshop.

Second floor.

Zhou Chen, unrestrained and carefree, sat down opposite the white-clad middle-aged man with his arm around Hong Jie’s ample waist, as if unaware that this person was a terrifying expert he had never encountered before.

“Brother, you don’t seem to be a local. Are you passing through or here on business?”

Zhou Chen looked at the white-clad middle-aged man. Two beautiful women were attending to him, and his fair, slender hands were quite restless. He didn’t have the air of a powerful expert at all.

“What makes you say that?”

The white-clad middle-aged man smiled and gestured for the beauty sitting on his lap to pour Zhou Chen some wine.

Qiu Xiang lifted the wine pot with her delicate hand and poured wine for Zhou Chen.

“Brother, you have an extraordinary aura. You’re definitely not an ordinary person. Although I’ve only been in Qing He City for a short time, I would surely know someone like you!”

Zhou Chen picked up his wine glass but didn’t drink. Instead, he twirled it in his hand and continued, “Besides, brother, you look like a regular visitor to brothels. I’ve been here every day recently, except for yesterday, but I’ve never seen you before!”

“So, it’s highly likely that you’re not a local from Qing He!”

“That’s right!”

The white-clad middle-aged man smiled. “My surname is Li. I’m passing through here to experience the local customs of Qing He City. I happened to hear about your romantic exploits, brother, and couldn’t resist inviting you for a chat!”

“So, it’s Brother Li.”

Zhou Chen was even more certain of his guess. This person was most likely Li Chang Feng, the Peak Master of Divine Arrow Peak.

“It seems Brother Li is a man of similar tastes!”

Zhou Chen laughed heartily and said magnanimously, “It’s fate that we’ve met. Since Brother Li has come to Qing He City, I should fulfill my duty as the host. Feel free to enjoy yourself, brother. It’s all on me!”

As he spoke, Zhou Chen took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into Hong Jie’s bosom. “Remember, I’m treating. If it’s not enough, come to me!”

“Don’t worry, Master Zhou. I’ll take good care of Master Li!”

Hong Jie’s smile widened. She patted her ample chest and quickly responded.

“Master, you’re here!”

Miao Tong and Miao Yu arrived together. Hong Jie took the opportunity to slip out of Zhou Chen’s embrace. The two beauties sat on either side of Zhou Chen, soft and alluring.

“Brother Zhou is truly generous! You’re spending a fortune!”

Li Chang Feng glanced at Zhou Chen meaningfully, secretly wondering if Zhou Chen had recognized him. But it didn’t seem like it.

“What are you saying, Brother Li? Gold and silver are worldly possessions. They only have value when they’re used. What’s the point of keeping them?”

Zhou Chen didn’t feel any heartache. It was only a few dozen taels of silver at most.

As the saying goes, there are four ironclad bonds in life.

Having studied together.

Having visited brothels together.

Regardless of whether this person was Li Chang Feng or not, he was definitely a powerful figure. It was best to establish a good relationship first.

The two men exchanged toasts, with the sweet voices of the beauties in their arms filling the air.

The aroma of wine, the scent of cosmetics, the fragrance of women, and the scent of hormones mixed together, stimulating the most primal desires in their hearts.

Zhou Chen didn’t try to probe the other’s identity. If the other party didn’t say anything, Zhou Chen wouldn’t ask. He didn’t talk about any matters of national importance, only about romance, interesting stories, and anecdotes.

Li Chang Feng was well-informed, which broadened Zhou Chen’s horizons and allowed him to learn a lot about the outside world.

The two men enjoyed each other’s company, regretting that they hadn’t met sooner.

“I see that Brother Zhou has long arms and a strong core, with ape-like arms and a wasp-like waist. You’re a good candidate for archery!”

Li Chang Feng observed Zhou Chen’s physique and said meaningfully.

“Master Li has a keen eye!”

Miao Tong’s soft and voluptuous body leaned against Zhou Chen, and she said with a smile,

“Master Zhou is the best archer in our County Yamen. Even the County Captain praises him endlessly!”

“I think Brother Zhou is not only the best archer in the County Yamen but also the best archer in Qing He County!”

Li Chang Feng said with a smile.

Zhou Chen’s heart skipped a beat. He didn’t know if Li Chang Feng was testing him or what his intentions were.

Since he was unsure, to be on the safe side, Zhou Chen laughed heartily, grabbed Miao Tong, and said, “Brother Li, you flatter me. Qing He County is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. How can I be worthy of the title of the best archer?”

“There was an archer before who killed Bai Gong Feng, a Qi Refinement, Sixth Level expert of the Salt Gang, with a single arrow. The Salt Gang is still looking for him!”

“But I believe that one day, I will become the best archer in Qing He County, even the best archer in the Great Qian Dynasty, just like the Arrow God, Li Chang Feng!”

Li Chang Feng’s eyes flickered slightly. He wasn’t sure if Zhou Chen had recognized him and was deliberately flattering him, but he still felt pleased.

He smiled and said,

“Brother Zhou, your dreams are truly ambitious. The Great Qian Dynasty is full of hidden talents and extraordinary individuals. Even Li Chang Feng wouldn’t dare to claim to be the best archer in the Great Qian Dynasty!”

“One must have dreams!”

Zhou Chen raised his head and looked into the distance at a forty-five-degree angle.

“What’s the difference between having no dreams and being a salted fish?”

“You’re right!”

Li Chang Feng raised his wine glass and said with a smile,

“Let’s have a toast!”

“Cheers!”

Zhou Chen raised his glass, clinked it with Li Chang Feng’s, and drank it all in one gulp.

He leaned closer to Li Chang Feng and said mysteriously,

“Brother Li, to be honest, I’ve been practicing archery since I was a child. The moment I held an arrow, I knew I was destined to be the Arrow God!”

Li Chang Feng’s heart stirred. “Could this kid have recognized me? Is he trying to reveal his talent and strength so that I’ll take him as my disciple?”

He was immediately intrigued and listened attentively.

Miao Tong, Miao Yu, Qiu Xiang, and the others all looked curious and expectant.

“I started practicing archery at five, mastered it at seven, achieved great mastery at ten, and reached perfection at fifteen. Not only do my arrows never miss their target, I can shoot through willows from a hundred paces away. I also have a talent that surpasses ordinary people!”

“What talent?”

“I can shoot arrows incredibly fast!”

Zhou Chen raised his right hand and clenched his five fingers.

“Because my hand speed is super fast!”

Li Chang Feng: “…”

I’ve already taken off my pants, and you’re telling me this? “What? You don’t believe me, Brother Li?”

Seeing Li Chang Feng’s expression, Zhou Chen pointed at Miao Tong and Miao Yu and said directly,

“Ask them if I’m lying!”

Miao Tong and Miao Yu’s legs tightened, and their faces flushed slightly. They thought of the terror of being dominated by Zhou Chen’s An Lushan’s Claw. They both loved and feared him.

“Master’s hand speed is truly unparalleled!”

Miao Yu said in a low, shy voice.

Li Chang Feng stared blankly at Zhou Chen. Even he couldn’t tell how much of Zhou Chen’s words were true and how much were false.

Miao Tong and the others just thought Zhou Chen was bragging.

In fact, Zhou Chen was indeed bragging.

But it wasn’t entirely bragging. He had the Thunderclap Wish-Fulfilling Hand supernatural ability, which did give him a huge advantage in archery. His hand speed was super fast.

At the same level of cultivation, others might only be able to shoot one arrow, while he could shoot at least four or five.

“Brother Zhou is truly an interesting person!”

Li Chang Feng smiled, exchanged more boasts with Zhou Chen, and then they each left with the beauties in their arms.

Zhou Chen didn’t hold back and, as usual, took on ten women.

Night fell, and the moonlight was like water.

Zhou Chen adjusted his belt and left the Snow Moon Workshop, his face flushed and looking pleased with himself.

“Interesting!”

Li Chang Feng appeared on a rooftop at some point, standing with his hands behind his back, gazing at Zhou Chen as he leisurely walked home. A faint smile played on his lips.

“Because you got a free night of pleasure!”

A cold voice rang out. A woman in black appeared next to Li Chang Feng at some point.

The woman was tall and slender, with a narrow waist, ample bosom, and a shapely backside. She carried a pitch-black bow on her back, and her entire being was like a ghost, exuding an aloofness that warned others to keep their distance.

“How dare you speak to Master like that!”

Li Chang Feng raised an eyebrow and rebuked, “Do I look like that kind of person?”

Li Chang Hen glanced at Li Chang Feng with disdain. You don’t just look like it, you are it.

“Is he really the archer who killed Bai Ru Yun?”

Li Chang Hen looked at Zhou Chen’s retreating figure. He didn’t look very powerful at all.

No, wait.

He’s quite skilled at playing with women.

I hear he can handle ten at once!

“Most likely.”

Although Li Chang Feng didn’t say it with certainty, after spending so much time with Zhou Chen today, he could confirm that Zhou Chen had cultivated Yi’s Archery and had reached a high level of proficiency.

Although Zhou Chen hid it well.

But who was he?

He was a super expert who had cultivated Yi’s Archery for decades. Zhou Chen might be able to fool others, but he couldn’t fool him.

“When are you going to take him as your disciple?”

Li Chang Hen knew she was going to have a new junior brother.

“I’ll observe him for a few more days!”

Li Chang Feng shook his head, while also investigating Zhou Chen’s background in detail.

As his direct disciple, he naturally had to be cautious.

“I feel like someone is watching me. It must be Li Lang, or rather, Li Chang Feng…”

Zhou Chen thought to himself as he walked along the road.

Li Lang was the name the other party had used when they were drinking. Zhou Chen guessed it was most likely fake.

Not paying it any mind, Zhou Chen remained vigilant but continued as usual.

He slipped into Qin Hong Yu’s bed. A sliver of his consciousness controlled his body to study the Wind and Moon Secret Record with Qin Hong Yu, while his soul entered the Wind and Moon Mirror to study with Liu Ru Yi.

Ji Feng Xia was also awake at this time.

Like Liu Ru Yi, she had comprehended a divine art, the Nine Transformations Nirvana Art.

She watched the two of them studying the Wind and Moon Secret Record, smiled charmingly, and joined in.

“You guys have fun. I’m leaving!”

Liu Ru Yi wanted to run away, but Ji Feng Xia caught her.

In the end.

Zhou Chen still got his way.

Hehe!

The night passed quietly.

Zhou Chen discovered that his Romance Points had skyrocketed. With Qin Hong Yu, Ji Feng Xia, and Liu Ru Yi’s blessings, his Romance Points had soared by six thousand, which was even better than going to the Snow Moon Workshop and taking on ten women.

“As expected, quality is key!”

Zhou Chen sighed inwardly. Adding to his previously accumulated Romance Points, he had now broken through the fourteen thousand mark.

Zhou Chen was pleased with himself and in high spirits.

However, at the Qing He branch of the Salt Gang, Bai Gui Nong and Wang Kang An, who had also been awake all night, had bloodshot eyes and grim expressions.

The killer didn’t show up again.

There was probably no hope left.

But they still wanted to make one last attempt. So, Bai Gui Nong found a woman and had her disguise herself as Liu Ru Yi. He then had Wang Kang An take her outside the city to be executed as a warning to others.

Unfortunately, the result was still the same. Zhou Chen didn’t show up.

For three days straight.

Apart from going to the Yamen to clock in, Zhou Chen basically stayed at home and studied the Wind and Moon Secret Record with Qin Hong Yu and the others. His Romance Points soared, breaking through the thirty-six thousand mark.

“Yi’s Archery, add points!”

Zhou Chen was filled with excitement and anticipation.

Thirty-two thousand Romance Points were consumed. It was as if Zhou Chen had cultivated day after day for ten years. The blood in his entire body had been completely replaced, and his Qi and blood were incredibly powerful.

Pop!

A sound like a bottleneck being broken rang out within his body. Zhou Chen’s incredibly powerful Qi and blood condensed, and wisps of inner energy were born within him.

This inner energy surged into his middle dantian and settled there, as if it had found its home. It didn’t interfere with the magical power circulating in his lower dantian, yet they both nourished Zhou Chen’s entire body.

As his inner energy was born, an unprecedented sense of power surged through him.
