From Joy of Life to Becoming a Saint

Chapter 10 Rapid Improvement

Ye Xiaoling pouted: "Sir, you are joking. Xiaoling doesn't dare."

After that, she bowed to Qin Feier and the other two and said, "Xiaoling greets the two girls."

"Sir, Xiaoling will go make tea for the guests first."

Chen Qiye tapped her forehead lightly and said, "Leave these matters to others. You just need to serve this young master."

Xiaoling is half a year younger than him and they grew up together. Naturally, she is not comparable to two women of unknown origin.

Chen Qiye called a few maids and told them to take Qin Feier and the other two to find a place to live. Then he came to the training ground he had built to start gaining skill experience.

He has just acquired the Xingyun Gong and has not started practicing it yet. He needs to try out the effects first.

"Master, it's so late, you still want to practice?"

Under the moonlight, Chen Qiye found a cushion and sat cross-legged in the training hall. The maid Xiaoling squatted beside him, holding her chin with both hands and staring straight at her master.

"You're just making small talk. Haven't I been practicing from morning till night recently?"

"Don't hold it in. Just ask whatever you want to ask."

Chen Qiye looked at the Xingyun Gong again, and then began to regulate his breathing, chatting while practicing. If other warriors knew about this, they would definitely scold him for not doing his job properly. It would be impossible to have any effect if he was distracted like this, so it would be better not to practice.

But Chen Qiye has a cheat, so he doesn’t need to enter a state of meditation at all.

Ye Xiaoling blushed when she heard that, and stuck out her tongue, saying, "Master, Xiaoling does have a question for you."

"Hurry up and tell me. If you keep on procrastinating, you won't be able to rest well tonight."

Ye Xiaoling's face turned even redder, and even her legs felt a little weak.

"Master, don't be angry. I'll tell you what I'm saying."

"I just want to ask, Miss Qin Fei'er who came back with the young master, is she really the young master's concubine?"

"Young Master, you didn't even say hello to the old master. Isn't that too ignorant of etiquette? The old master has to go out for something and won't be back for a while. Young Master, aren't you afraid that the old master will come back and scold you?"

[Skills Performance Experience +10]

[Skill: Cloud Walking Skill (10/100)]

Chen Qiye was overjoyed: "It's done."

He tried to feel it and found that his internal breath was much longer. This technique was really good.

"Master, what's the matter? Do you think the master will scold you? Why are you taking concubines so recklessly?"

Chen Qiye ignored the nagging maid and stood up, picked up the bow and arrow and began to practice. He tried to use the Xingyun Gong to adjust his breathing while practicing archery to see if it would increase his skill experience.

After a stick of incense...

[Skill Archery Experience +40]

[Skill Cloud Walking Skill Experience +15]

[Main skill: Archery lv2 (45/500)]

[Skill: Cloud Walking Skill lv1 (25/100)]

The experience points for the main skill were previously increased by a maximum of five points at a time, but I didn’t expect that after practicing the inner skills, the increase would be nearly tenfold.

Chen Qiye also discovered that his strength seemed to have broken through [Strength: Fifth Rank]

Seeing that the strength displayed on the panel was indeed fifth grade, Chen Qiye excitedly threw a set of turtle punches.

It was indeed a little late today. After calming down, Chen Qiye pulled the maid towards the room.

"Master, what are you doing?"

"Don't pretend. You've been waiting here for this for quite some time."

"I... I didn't, Master, I didn't, ah... Master, I haven't reached the room yet."

The next day, Chen Qiye, who had only slept for two hours the previous night, got up before dawn to practice martial arts. Even the maid Xiaoling fainted, but he was full of energy. He was already strong, and he became even stronger after his physical strength increased.

After his practice speed increased, he became more diligent than before, practicing from early morning till lunch time without stopping. If the servants hadn't reminded him, he would have forgotten that he hadn't eaten yet.

Day three.

Chen Qiye is still full of energy.

Day 4 Day 5...
For half a month, Chen Qiye had been working hard to gain skill experience every day. Now his archery skills had reached level 3, and his Xingyun Gong had reached level 2.

His strength is still at the fifth level, but Chen Qiye can understand that this is normal. If he were to be promoted to the fifth level in a few days, then this speed would be a bit outrageous. But in fact, it is also fast. Chen Qiye is very confident now, and he has the confidence to fight even if he meets a sixth-level person.

If the distance is increased, he feels that he has a chance to turn the tables even against the seventh and eighth rank.

The guest rooms and courtyard of the Chen Mansion.

Qin Feier and her maid were watering the flowers in the yard out of boredom.

These days, Qin Feier was worried every day that Chen Qiye would suddenly come to do something to her, but after worrying for several days, the other party didn't even come to bully her, let alone look at her, as if she didn't exist.

Qin Feier was even inexplicably annoyed, wondering if she was really so unattractive?
"Miss, are we going to stay like this forever?"

Qin Feier glared at her: "What else? Are you going to take the initiative to tell Master Chen to go to Kyoto as soon as possible?"

"Chen Qiye seems to be carefree and unruly, but he is actually very cautious. He will definitely go to Kyoto. I can see that he is an ambitious person."

"But without adequate preparation, he might not be so fast."

The maid Qing'er asked, "Miss, do you know what it takes for Master Chen to be fully prepared?"

Qin Feier looked up at the yard in front of her and said calmly, "Personal strength."

"Every time I asked the people in the Chen Mansion these days, they all said that Chen Qiye was practicing martial arts. It can be seen that this person is a martial arts fanatic. Therefore, without absolute strength, he will not go to Kyoto."

"If you want to make a name for yourself in Kyoto, you have to be at least ninth rank."

"Chen Qiye specializes in archery. Maybe...his goal is to become the second ninth-grade archer in the world."

Qing'er was surprised and said, "That's difficult, right? There has only been one ninth-rank archer in all these years, which shows how difficult it is."

“The harder it is, the greater the benefit you will get after achieving it.”

"Besides, the Inspection Bureau has already set its sights on the Bai family. It is safest for us to hide in the Chen Mansion now. I am still thankful that I was decisive enough half a month ago and came to the Chen Mansion that day."

The maid Qing'er nodded: "That's true, young lady, you are really amazing."

The two were chatting happily until a maid appeared and interrupted their conversation.

"Miss Qin, my young master wants you to come over."

Qin Feier suddenly thought to herself: This guy finally decided to look for her.

But he looked puzzled and asked, "What does Master Chen want from me?"

The maid shook her head: "I don't know, but the young master said that Miss Qin should bring her zither, or a pipa."

Qin Feier: “?”

Soon...

In the training hall, Chen Qiye lay horizontally on a long chair, his head resting between the legs of his maid Xiaoling, his eyes closed and tapping his knees. The maid Xiaoling held a plate of grapes and fed him one from time to time.

"Miss Fei'er, keep playing, don't stop."

Qin Feier pursed her lips and thought to herself that this guy really knew how to enjoy himself.

After some time passed, the sixth servant came running over.

"Master, someone has come to visit, saying that they are from the Inspection Institute."

With a "clang" sound, the beautiful piano sound suddenly became disrupted.
