Chapter 25: Making a Little Bit of Money

Chapter 25 Earned a Little Bit
“That can’t be helped, I’ll sell it to you when I can refine it someday.”

Chen Fei waved his hand and turned to leave.

After learning the Lightness Spirit Pill, Chen Fei would really take it out and sell it, after all, it was more valuable. As for the Ever Floating Dan, he really would, and would not sell it.

A man is not guilty of a crime, but he is guilty of harboring it. Chen Fei’s power to protect himself today was not enough.

When the time came, he could easily be arrested and turned into an alchemist who could only refine pills.

Leaving the dark market, Chen Fei shook off the few small tails behind him.

As Chen Fei sold Grass Returning Pills in the Dark Market, the people following him became more and more numerous. Luckily, Chen Fei now had accomplished his body techniques, and ordinary people were unable to keep up with Chen Fei’s pace.

And the district’s Grass Returning Pill couldn’t attract any powerful experts yet.

After making a few more turns in the county, Chen Fei returned to the courtyard of the Dan Room.

Opening the money bag and looking at the silver glittering color amongst it, Chen Fei’s face couldn’t help but reveal a hint of a smile.

Close to six hundred taels of silver, in the eyes of an ordinary person, this was a huge sum of money, and Chen Fei had saved up enough of it within a few days.

Alchemy naturally took the credit, but Chen Fei’s own cultivation as well as his stance could not be ignored as well. Without power, one could not keep the money.

And Chen Fei’s purpose of making money had always been for his own power to keep growing. Otherwise, if he foolishly became a miser, he would end up not knowing which day the money would disappear.

“Panel, Simplified Immortal Guide!”

“Immortal Pointing in the process of simplifying…simplifying successfully…Immortal Pointing → Knocking Finger!”

The simplification did not disappoint Chen Fei, as Chen Fei gently tapped the table with his finger. In the next moment, the sensation of the Immortal’s Knocking Finger style of swordsmanship appeared in Chen Fei’s mind, and Chen Fei’s eyes couldn’t help but close.

This was the most profound and subtle style of swordsmanship that Chen Fei had ever come into contact with, and gaining enlightenment at this moment made Chen Fei involuntarily immerse himself in it.

With the unconscious tapping of his fingers, the experience value of the Immortal’s Guide on the panel continued to increase, and a smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face, this was the joy of hearing the Dao.

Early the next morning, Chen Fei was refreshed and headed to the Zhang Family Residence.

[Technique: Immortal Pointing the Way (Proficient 201/1000)]

In one night’s time, Immortal’s Guide had reached the Proficient level, a level of sword technique that could already be used as a practical combat. If it wasn’t for the wonders of the sword technique attracting Chen Fei last night, causing Chen Fei to forget to tap the finger behind him, the proficiency level would be even higher at this moment.

However, Chen Fei was already satisfied in his heart, and within a few days, the Immortal’s Guidance was expected to be perfected. At that time, no one in the Flesh Practicing Realm within Pingyin County was expected to be Chen Fei’s opponent.

This was the sword stance of the Immortal Cloud Sword School, and even though it was only one of the stances, the degree of subtlety far exceeded that of the martial artists in Pingyin County.

“Drawing cold to give the Calcined Bone Realm such a sword, it’s estimated that they’re all tough enough!”

Chen Fei secretly estimated that the Jian Liang he had encountered back then, as well as last night’s Sun Shu, the other party would indeed be seriously injured if they were careless. When the time came to use the Immortal’s Guide a few more times, it would be possible to kill the person.

The trick was easy to use multiple times, and it was easy for someone to see the breaks, but how would someone else have the time to look at any breaks when they were seriously injured.

Chen Fei’s heart slightly felt more secure, but this sense of security was far from enough, Chen Fei felt that he still needed to keep working hard.

“Missy!”

Entering through the small door and walking to the other courtyard, seeing Zhang Sinan in the pavilion who seemed to be thinking about something, Chen Fei called out from the side.

“You’re here, sit.”

When Zhang Sinan saw Chen Fei, he seemed to be aware of Chen Fei’s purpose, Zhang Sinan’s brows frowned slightly as he said, “Is it for the formula of the Lightness Spirit Pill?”

“Yes, please also bestow it, Great Miss.” Chen Fei arched his hand and said.

“I’m afraid I can’t give you the formula for this Light Spirit Pill.” Zhang Sinan hesitated and said.

“Why? Wasn’t it promised before.”

Chen Fei could not help but frown, this was not the same as what he had said before. Because of this Light Spirit Pill’s formula, Chen Fei had been chased by Sun Shu last night, and Zhang Sinan should have known about it.

“There are a few family elders, who feel that the matter of Sun Jutsu has not been resolved, and that you have just said a word to get the formula of the Light Spirit Pill, it is not too much of a reward.” Zhang Sinan also seemed to know that he was somewhat unjustified, and at this moment, he explained to Chen Fei in a kind voice.

Chen Fei frowned tightly and did not speak. This Zhang family was taking the matter of Sun Shu and transferring the anger onto him. Originally thought that the Zhang family was a decent person, but Chen Fei thought a little too much.

“The Zhang Family will not treat people poorly, the formula for the Light Spirit Pill is now given to you, and you will not be able to refine it, so it would be better to exchange it for some other rewards.”

Chen Fei’s silence caused Zhang Sinan to be a bit dissatisfied, and his voice became cold.

“I wonder what kind of reward?”

Chen Fei didn’t spill his guts or argue with reason, because Chen Fei knew that none of this was useful.

“Tricks, sharp weapons, you can propose them all. As long as it’s suitable, you can be rewarded.”

Seeing that Chen Fei did not stalk him, Zhang Sinan nodded slightly, which was only decent. In the end, although Chen Fei was not an underling of the Zhang family, he also relied on the Zhang family for his meals, and his position should still be correct.

“I want a set of sword techniques.”

Cultivation technique options directly no, only moves and sharp weapons, Zhang family in this regard is really pinch dead. But it was normal, after all, they were not even willing to give the Dan formula.

Zhang Sinan nodded his head, called an underling and ordered a few words. In just a few moments, Chen Fei had four sword technique secret books in front of him.

“These secret books are not bad, choose one.”

“Can I read each one?” Chen Fei thought for a moment and said.

“Yes.” Zhang Sinan nodded in agreement.

Chen Fei picked up the first book, Gale Sword, and flipped through it.

It was unknown if it was because the Immortal’s Guide style of swordsmanship had been comprehended by Chen Fei. At this moment, when Chen Fei looked at the Gale Sword, a lot of the reasoning of the sword technique actually made sense at one point.

However, in a quarter of an hour’s work, Chen Fei finished flipping through this Gale Sword. Chen Fei subconsciously looked at the panel, and his eyes couldn’t help but light up.

[Technique: Gale Sword (Uninitiated)]

“You can take three books for nothing?”

These words couldn’t help but pop up in Chen Fei’s mind, and the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly as Chen Fei glanced up at Zhang Sinan and realized that his attention wasn’t on him at all.

Putting the secret book in his hand down, Chen Fei flipped through the second sword technique.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Fei put the secret book down and picked up the third book. Another quarter of an hour later, the fourth secret book was finished by Chen Fei.

“Finished reading? Which one do you want?”

Seeing Chen Fei put the secret book down, Zhang Sinan turned her head and asked.

Zhang Sinan hadn’t thought that Chen Fei could learn four secret books in a short period of time, more than 90% of martial artists couldn’t do this. The techniques all had to be studied in detail, and even self-study was not enough to learn them, they had to be led by a master.

A quarter of an hour for a secret book was just enough time to skim through the secret books.

“Just this one.”

Chen Fei picked up one of the books, and Zhang Sinan nodded. Chen Fei bowed his hand and left the Zhang family residence.

On the way, Chen Fei looked at the information on the panel and almost let out a laugh.

[Feats: Gale Sword (uninitiated), Fire Crossing Sword (uninitiated), Leaf Pattern Sword (uninitiated), Hand Shield Sword (uninitiated)]

Although the formula for the Light Spirit Pill was not obtained, it was not a loss after all.

Even, it seems, a little bit of profit?
