From Joy of Life to Becoming a Saint

Chapter 47 Brother, are you here to see my sister-in-law?
Xie Bian's face was solemn, full of surprise and curiosity.

"It's not difficult to use your true energy to force the wine you just drank out of your body, but turning the power of alcohol into combat power like this is really unheard of."

"The true qi is water-colored, which means that the alcohol forced out of the body is transformed into a means of attack. I don't know if others can control this kind of force over such a large range, but I definitely can't do it."

"I heard that he created it himself. Could it be that he is really a martial arts genius?"

Li Chengze rolled his eyes at him.

"I'm asking you this, I'm asking you if the person can still be saved?"

Xie Bian shook his head: "Based on this skill alone, this person is at least at the peak of the eighth rank. Moreover, his skill of using the power of alcohol to increase his combat power is probably no less than that of the ninth rank in actual combat."

"hehe?"

Li Chengze smiled.

"Ah... Kyoto is really full of hidden talents. People from any small place are so outstanding. I suddenly think it's not a bad idea to wait and see. It would be best if I can win them over."

Li Hongcheng became anxious when he heard this.

If that person becomes the Second Prince's man, then Ruoruo...

Li Chengze saw through his thoughts at a glance, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, if you succeed in winning him over, I will speak up for you and ask him not to compete with you for Fan Ruoruo."

"By the way, Xie Bian."

"I heard that a mysterious master appeared in Kyoto recently. He snatched Si Lili from the Black Knights of the Inspection Institute and Fan Xian in public. That man defeated dozens of Black Knights with one palm strike. What do you think...how does the power of this palm strike compare to that?"

Xie Bian was stunned: "There are still people like this?"

Xie Bian naturally didn't know about the affairs of the Inspection Institute, and Li Chengze, the second prince, had only just learned about it.

"Yes, don't ask anything else, just answer my questions."

As a swordsman under the Second Prince's tutelage, Xie Bian naturally knew not to ask questions that he shouldn't.

"Your Highness, with the Black Cavalry's combat power, to defeat dozens of people with one palm strike, one must be at least a ninth-grade master. If the upper-level Black Cavalry has a higher combat power, then ordinary ninth-grade masters cannot do such a terrifying thing."

"The palm strike Zuijinlou just made is not only much more powerful than the Ninth-Rank one, but if you look closely, it's not a palm strike at all, it's just brute force."

Li Chengze nodded: "Then it's okay."

"Alas... What a pity! Your Highness really wants to meet someone who dares to go against the Inspection Office."

"Your Highness, if such a master is willing to attack the Black Knight, it means that he is very arrogant and will not be willing to be inferior to others."

Li Chengze disagreed with this. He turned around, picked up a bunch of grapes from the table and put them into his mouth, saying with a smile, "As long as you are a human being, you can negotiate terms. As long as you have enough ability to cooperate, you don't have to be inferior to others."

······
In Zuijinlou, Chen Qiye and Fan Ruoruo were drinking and chatting while Chen Qiye introduced the inspiration for the creation of "Bacchus' Curse" to Fan Ruoruo.

It seems that he just showed that skill just now just to please the beauty, but in fact, if you observe carefully, you will find that his ears will move slightly from time to time.

From Zuijinlou to the opposite attic, the distance between them is two streets, which seems quite far. If you are not a martial arts master, you can only see each other's blurry figures.

It was even more impossible to hear what the person on the other side was saying, as there was a noisy street in the middle and the distance was far. Under such conditions, apart from a grandmaster, only a ninth-grade archer whose vision and hearing were superior to those of ordinary warriors might be able to do it.

Chen Qiye is still at the ninth rank now, but his eyesight and hearing are not inferior to those at the ninth rank.

As soon as he arrived at Zuijinlou, he keenly noticed that someone was watching him. He took a glance while drinking and really found that there were three people in the attic in front of him who were always watching him. The skill of [Listening to Music] improves the ability of hearing, and [Reading] has the effect of improving concentration. With the blessing of skills and abilities, Chen Qiye really managed to distinguish sounds from two streets away.

When he heard the titles Xie Bian, His Highness, and His Highness the Crown Prince, he instantly guessed the identities of the three people.

The move he had just shown was originally intended to remind the Second Prince that he was not that easy to kill. He was at the peak of the eighth rank, barely above ninth rank, and his strength was unclear, so the other party would be wary.

If you want to get involved in the mess in Kyoto, you will have to run into these people sooner or later. You have to hide your true strength, but you can't appear too weak on the surface, otherwise others will treat you as an insignificant little character.

But the Second Prince's reaction was somewhat beyond Chen Qiye's expectations. Just because he showed off his skills casually, he wanted to be recruited?

But this is just right, as this way he can just maneuver instead of having a conflict. On the surface, he has not yet decided which camp he will stay in Kyoto in, so he will wait and observe for a while before making a decision.

After drinking and eating, Chen Qiye took the initiative to say goodbye to Fan Ruoruo and left Zuijinlou.

After returning home, he changed into a black uniform and put on a mask, then ran out of Kyoto City in a flash.

When he activated the [Medical Skills] skill, an idea popped into his mind. He originally planned to implement it later, but Li Chengze's reaction today made him decide to find someone to experiment with it immediately.

When they arrived at the mountain, Ye Dan and his companions patrolled diligently as usual.

Seeing him coming, Ye Dan took the lead to step forward and ask.

"Brother, are you here to see your sister-in-law?"

"Don't worry, brother. My sister-in-law has been eating well these days and often goes to the top of the mountain to watch the sunset. Apart from the pain of missing her, everything else is fine."

Chen Qiye rolled his eyes at him speechlessly.

"What sister-in-law, what lovesickness?"

Ye Dan looked at Si Lili's room, then said with a smile: "Brother, don't be shy, I understand, you are still young after all, the love and hate entanglement between men and women is exactly what you should experience at your age."

"My fate is entangled with Miss Lili, and one sunset determines our life, but it's a pity that my identity..."

Seeing that he was getting more and more outrageous, Chen Qiye raised his foot and kicked him on the butt.

"I see you're just too bored to do anything, right?"

"Brother, what does this pain in the ass mean?"

"Get lost, go gather those people you found here, I have something to say."

I used to think that this guy was a funny guy, but I didn't expect that as we got to know each other better, he became more and more funny. Chen Qiye lamented that every little brother he recruited was a talented person.

Although Ye Dan is a bit funny, he is still very serious when doing things.

When he heard that his eldest brother had something to announce, he immediately took orders and went to call people, and soon brought everyone over.

Including Ye Dan, there are seven people in total. Their skills are impressive compared to some petty thieves, but if they meet some more formal guards, these people will be a bit outmatched.

Fortunately, after checking for some time, these people are fine and confirmed to be usable, which is the most important thing.

Chen Qiye walked back and forth with his hands behind his back. He walked back and forth for a long time in the puzzled expressions of several people before he stopped and said:

"Do you want to become a master in a short time?"
