Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

"Is it food?"

Speaking of which, although Feng Qi usually seems indifferent to other things, she still shows unusual interest when it comes to food.

Chapter 24 The Ability to Turn the Mundane into the Magical

Especially now that Lin Yu's cooking skills are getting better and better.

"No."

Lin Yu placed the pot on the stove, opened the bottle of liquor he had bought, and began pouring it in.

"I'm going to make wine."

"liquor?"

Feng Qi stared at Lin Yu as if he were an idiot, "Don't tell me you're planning to buy other people's wine, add something to it, and then resell it."

Do you think I'm stupid, or is everyone else stupid?

Lin Yu rolled her eyes at Feng Qi, annoyed. Why did this well-bred young lady always treat people like fools?

"A little bit of both."

Feng Qi thought for a moment, then spoke in a serious tone.

"Go away, go away."

Lin Yu shooed her away, then took a small jar and placed it aside, preparing to collect the distilled liquor.

"Just watch closely, and I'll show you what it means to turn something rotten into something magical."

As he spoke, Lin Yu stuffed a bundle of firewood under the stove and lit it.

As the flames rose, the cold drinks gradually warmed up.

Once these are taken care of, apart from occasionally adding some cold water outside to help with condensation, there's nothing else to worry about.

Lin Yu simply started practicing the Crimson Fiend Fist right there on the side.

Because now we don't need to go out to do business or anything, we have plenty of time.

During the day, he practiced the Crimson Fiend Fist, and at night he practiced the Mighty Bull Skill. Lin Yu filled his time completely.

Fengqi turned around and went back into the house, bringing out a small rocking chair.

Since moving, my standard of living has risen dramatically.

The original small stools have been upgraded to these high-end items.

This beautiful, mature woman simply lay down on a rocking chair padded with thick wool, covered with a thick cloak, revealing only her delicate, palm-sized face. She leisurely watched Lin Yu practice his boxing, occasionally glancing at the blazing boiler.

The firewood crackled and popped, while Lin Yu's boxing moves were powerful and impressive.

[You have diligently practiced the Crimson Fiend Fist and gained some insight; proficiency +1!]

[You are using your brewing skill. Brewing +1!]

[You have diligently practiced the Crimson Fiend Fist and gained some insight; proficiency +1!]

[You are using your brewing skill. Brewing +1!]

Looking at the scene before her, Feng Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and she seemed a little drowsy. This lazy life was truly hard to resist.

Just as Feng Qi was about to take a short rest, a rich fragrance suddenly drifted through the air to her side.

I can smell this aroma.

The drowsiness that had been lingering instantly vanished, and Feng Qi quickly regained her senses.

She opened her eyes and, following the source of the smell, looked at the somewhat strange boiler that Lin Yu had been fiddling with.

She could see glistening, transparent liquid dripping from a bamboo tube extending from the boiler into a small jar, and the fragrance she smelled was coming from this.

"Such a rich aroma of wine."

Feng Qi thought with some surprise, her clear, beautiful eyes filled with a look of inquiry.

Lin Yu rarely does things behind her back.

She saw it all clearly when she bought the wine.

It was the cheapest kind of cloudy wine, not only sour and astringent, but also mixed with some impurities.

Even in small towns, it's the kind of alcohol only the poor and destitute would drink.

But now, what flows out of that bamboo tube is clear and transparent wine, completely different from that turbid wine, not to mention its rich aroma.

As Feng Qi watched the drops of wine fall, he felt a sense of surprise.

'Could this guy really have the ability to turn the impossible into the possible?'

As Feng Qi pondered, she noticed that the aroma of wine in the air was becoming increasingly strong.

Even someone like her who doesn't drink can't help but swallow hard when she smells this aroma.

Lin Yu, who was practicing boxing, noticed Feng Qi's little movements and a smile appeared on his face.

This mature woman usually acts so aloof, and it's only at times like this that she reveals a rare hint of naivety.

I estimated the time and felt it should be almost time.

Lin Yu arrived at the boiler and, under Feng Qi's expectant gaze, tested the cold water placed on top to help with condensation. Seeing that the temperature was rising, he scooped it out little by little with a ladle and then poured in cold water.

"How long are you going to take to finish this?"

Feng Qi suddenly spoke up and asked a question.

"Judging by the looks of it, it'll probably take a while. Want to try some?"

Lin Yu spoke without turning his head, then added more firewood after changing the water to cold water.

"Heh, I just think this one looks pretty decent, maybe it's a good investment project."

Having spent so much time with Lin Yu, Feng Qi has learned a lot of vocabulary.

"I see. Unfortunately, I'm currently quite well-off and don't have any plans to attract investment at the moment."

Lin Yu spoke with a smile, watching Feng Qi's discomfiture with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

Feng Qi rolled her eyes at him and immediately fell silent upon hearing this.

Although he maintained his usual aloof demeanor, Lin Yu could clearly sense a hint of unhappiness in him.

Lin Yu suppressed a laugh and didn't try to provoke him further.

He continued to practice his boxing with focused concentration.

As for whether or not to invest, it doesn't matter to him right now.

In his opinion, there was no need to make such a clear distinction between the two of them; it was completely unnecessary.

By the time the jar of liquor was distilled, it was already evening.

To Lin Yu's delight, not only was the distillation successful, but the Crimson Fiend Fist had also accumulated enough proficiency to improve.

[Crimson Fiend Fist upgraded to LV.2 (0/500), your understanding of Crimson Fiend Fist has increased.]

I don't know if it's because my physical fitness is better now, my movements are more standard, or some other reason.

After Lin Yu discovered that his rating from the system had significantly increased after he practiced boxing that afternoon, the rating had risen considerably.

With yesterday's training, the improvement in the Crimson Fiend Fist has been quite rapid.

Upon receiving the system notification, Lin Yu's mind was immediately flooded with various knowledge about the Crimson Fiend Fist, and he memorized the contents of the manual perfectly.

In addition, a phantom image kept moving and fighting in his mind.

The moves and techniques of the Crimson Fiend Fist are analyzed in great detail.

As he raised his hand, his body reacted instinctively, almost instinctively.

It's like practicing boxing for a long time, forming muscle memory that's ingrained in your bones.

Feeling the extra information appearing in his mind, Lin Yu's eyes showed surprise.

He originally thought that the system could only improve one's realm in terms of martial arts skills, but he didn't expect it to also cover combat experience.

The illusory image in his mind was like a most dedicated teacher, not only analyzing and explaining to him, but also giving him pointers.

If he had obtained the Crimson Fiend Fist instead of the Mighty Bull Technique, even without that extraordinary physical ability, Lin Yu believed that with the improved combat experience, he would have been able to easily defeat those guys from the Black Tiger Gang.

Chapter 25 If you are not drunk, everyone will get drunk.

This unexpected gain from the system truly surprised and delighted Lin Yu.

After all, in his previous life, as an ordinary person, he could only get into minor squabbles, like fighting in school, except that fighting in society was too costly.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they have zero practical experience.

This has now greatly filled the void in his life.
