Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 311 A Strike and a Sweet Treat

"But if we look at it that way, then his cheat system is a bit overrated, isn't it?"

"A little bit? What do you mean?"

I randomly flipped through a few modern online novels and found detailed descriptions of various overpowered and explosive "golden fingers" (cheat codes or special abilities) in these novels.

Bai Ling pouted.

"Look at them, they're either invincible from the start, or they live forever, they become patriarchs and ancestors all the time, or they're the only ones who can stand alone for eternity!"

"But if you look back at this, the ability to freely travel between the two worlds is useful, but the ability to teleport away in the blink of an eye is a bug."

"But his physical abilities are at best on par with his four henchmen. He's far inferior to them; what else could this be but a disgrace?"

Seeing that Bai Ling even disliked this, Lao Luo was speechless.

"You said it yourself, those are unreliable novels, but this is real life with flesh and blood! You're comparing reality to novels, is it me who's wrong, or is your understanding wrong?"

What's the key?
The key point is that in just a month or two, Ximen Lang went from an ordinary person with no foundation to someone whose physical abilities were almost on par with his four henchmen!
You should know that the Four Heavenly Kings are no ordinary people!

Instead, he was a martial arts master since childhood, whose skills were so high that even Hao Pingchuan, the martial arts expert, would have to admire him greatly, and even He Yuzhu, the war god of the courtyard, would have to give him a wide berth!

They searched the entire army before finding these four incredibly skilled individuals!

Later generations spread rumors that winning this prize would directly earn one a first-class merit, and in reality, it was indeed the first place in the all-army competition, which was full of honors and extremely prestigious.

The four henchmen under Ximen Lang are no less capable than them!
Because they had practiced martial arts since childhood and had actually been on the battlefield, and were genuine combat heroes, they were even more powerful and exaggerated than the winner of the entire army's martial arts competition!

"In just one month, without even exercising, his physical abilities have already surpassed their 20 years of hard work! If this isn't amazing, tell me what is?"

Bai Ling was rendered speechless and could no longer utter any words of disdain.

Lao Luo added.

"Not to mention, this may be far from his limit."

These words really spurred Bai Ling, who realized that Ximen Lang was very likely to continue to grow stronger.

Bai Ling was shocked.

"Old Luo, this joke isn't funny! Ah Lang is already developing into a beast of burden. If he keeps getting stronger, can he still be called human? He'll truly become a human genius!"

The key is.
"What am I going to do in the future? I'm already struggling to cope, and I can only hold my nose and let the future Xia Yi help me bear it. If he keeps getting stronger, are you planning to kill me?!"

However, Bai Ling, who was very sensitive, obviously couldn't say this openly in front of so many people.

"Hurry up!" Bai Ling quickly banished these irrelevant thoughts from her mind and hurriedly sought confirmation.

"Where is the evidence? Where is the evidence for your judgment?"

"Evidence? What evidence do we need?"

"I'm in great health and have a great appetite—that's the strongest proof!"

"Let me tell you, I only ate as much as I wanted. Otherwise, even if you put a whole cow in front of me, I would have eaten it all!"

"My appetite is so good, and I don't feel any discomfort at all, so of course there's nothing wrong with my body!"

"So, all those tests are completely unnecessary! I can tell you clearly right now that I'm perfectly healthy and don't need any of those unnecessary tests!" Yes, as the novelty and excitement slowly faded.

Upon hearing that Xia Yiyi kept him behind to give him a comprehensive check-up during this time, he realized that Xia Yiyi had decided to do so.

He shook his head vigorously, like a rattle-drum, and finally realized something was wrong. Ximen Lang immediately and firmly refused.

The reason is very simple.

Others might not know what was going on, but as the actual owner and user of this cheat system, how could he not know what was happening?!

In fact, he really didn't know much.
Because his cheat system had no instructions, and he had to develop and explore it on his own, he was only realized something was wrong after Xia Yi reminded him.

Even if you've never eaten pork, you've certainly seen pigs run!
Go look in the fanfiction world of Beijing. Every single one of them with a cheat code starts off with gene evolution fluid, spiritual springs, and spiritual mountains all provided!

The purpose is to eliminate the possibility of being bullied by the Courtyard War God at the root, so as to achieve the goal of replacing He Yuzhu and becoming the new Courtyard War God!
A slight comparison
Without even needing to think about it, Ximen Lang immediately came to the answer.
"It must be that the cheat code that always makes everyone a step behind has finally come into play!"

Otherwise, you simply cannot explain his sudden surge in physical abilities!
So I'm really afraid that something terrible might be discovered by accident, that I might be labeled a monster, and that I might end up with the tragic fate of being dissected and studied.

Ximen Lang immediately reacted strongly to this matter.

Xia Yiyi, a truly shrewd person, was perfectly aware of this.

But precisely because she understood Ximen Lang so well, she really had a way with him.

With just a slight thought, he took advantage of the trust that Ximen Lang would place in him once he considered him one of his own, and Ximen Lang's consistent "fear of death" and his extreme concern for his own safety.

Xia Yiyi immediately came up with an idea tailored for Ximen Lang and cautiously probed.

"Don't worry, I won't do any unnecessary tests. Just a little blood test and a CT scan to see if you've had a second growth spurt and whether it's putting any strain on your body."

"Besides, it's all through my personal connections, the result will be absolutely confidential, and no outsiders will know. Now that I've said that, you should be reassured, right? Unless you want to continue living in this state of confusion forever."

Seeing that Ximen Lang was still hesitating, Xia Yiyi finally unleashed her ultimate move.

"I have to remind you, if you miss the best treatment period because it wasn't detected early, you'll have to bear the consequences yourself for the rest of your life."

These words truly resonated with Ximen Lang, leaving him, who placed great importance on his own safety, with no choice but to nod in agreement.

Then, Ximen Lang wondered.

"But there's no need to stay here for several days, is there? I estimate I can finish the check-up in half a day."

"The examination certainly won't take that long; if things go smoothly, it should only take an hour or two at most. But the problem is, you clearly can't control your body. You need some professional training to manage it!"

"Also, you'll be wandering all over the world from now on. With your skills, your alertness, and your practically nonexistent experience in dealing with situations, you need some special training, don't you?"

Ximen Lang was left speechless.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Yiyi offered a sweet treat in return for the initial criticism.

"Didn't you want 10 Type 99A tanks to protect yourself? No problem, those tanks will be in place tomorrow, and you can drive them away tomorrow morning!"

"Besides, this is definitely far from meeting your expectations! So stop pretending, just tell me what else you want!"

　I wrote this in the middle of the night; I'll see when I wake up this afternoon.
