After calming his boiling blood and qi, Chen Shisheng's breathing became steady.

He pushed through the crowd, squatted down, and picked up the pair of red embroidered shoes from the ground.

The moment you touch it, you feel a chill, like holding ice in the summer; it's extremely cold to the touch.

However, he has long since reached the point of needing a blood transfusion, and once the blood and qi in his arm circulate, he no longer feels uncomfortable.

"Shisheng, what happened just now? Are you alright?"

Liu Feng walked over, glanced at the red embroidered shoes in Chen Shisheng's hand, and although he was puzzled, he didn't ask.

"fine."

Chen Shisheng shook his head, then turned to look at the dead martial artist.

"Brother Feng, how did things go just now?"

"That's strange. I don't know why, but I couldn't find you for a moment. There was water mist all around, and I couldn't see anything... Then I heard a scream, and then I saw you."

Liu Feng looked puzzled.

The others also gathered around, asking what had happened.

When they learned that it was Chen Shisheng who had killed the strange red figure, everyone was amazed.

The gaze directed at him couldn't help but carry a hint of awe and scrutiny.

Zhang Qing was also surprised. He stood aside and did not step forward. He just looked at Chen Shisheng, who was full of blood and energy and had a strong sense of pressure, and sighed slightly.

He had seen this level of strength before.

During the mutual aid society, Zhu You had sparred with others, and it was like this.

However, what he didn't expect was that Chen Shisheng could also do it.

"First, tidy up the surrounding area and see if there are any leftovers."

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Shisheng instructed everyone to continue searching in groups of five.

He then quickly returned home with the red embroidered shoe in his hand.

My sister-in-law was also startled by the noise and stood at the door with a spatula in her hand, looking very wary.

Seeing Chen Shisheng's face flushed and his blood rushing to his head, he quickly stepped forward and asked with concern:

"Shisheng, what's wrong with you?"

She moved closer and, by the moonlight, saw the bloodstains on Chen Shisheng's body.

"Oh dear, why are you covered in blood?!"

"It's okay, it's not mine."

Chen Shisheng offered a word of comfort and asked his sister-in-law to pour him a glass of water.

Although the battle just now lasted only a very short time, his burst of energy in that instant almost overwhelmed his entire body.

This has caused him to feel somewhat hot and bothered, with dizziness and a general feeling of being overwhelmed by the rush of qi and blood.

"Here you go. Shisheng, are you doing something dangerous?"

Liu Yun gently handed over the cup, her expression somewhat worried.

Why do you ask that?

Chen Shisheng finished his drink in one gulp and looked up at Liu Yun.

"You've lost weight lately, and you haven't been eating much. You usually eat five bowls of rice."

"Forehead...."

Chen Shisheng looked at his arms, which were almost as thick as Liu Yun's thigh, and was speechless.

This is a kind of thinness that your family thinks you're too thin.

He briefly explained the situation to his sister-in-law, but he didn't mention Hongying.

Women are generally afraid of these things, and he was afraid of scaring his sister-in-law, so he only said that he had dealt with some troubles.

Once inside, Chen Shisheng took out the pair of red embroidered shoes, and immediately a white phantom flew out.

【Thousand Needles Embroidery (White): Qi and blood transform into silk threads, condensing strength into needles. Intricate manipulation】

Without hesitation, Chen Shisheng had an idea.

As if drawn by something, the white phantom entered Chen Shisheng's body and disappeared.

As he made this movement, the red embroidered shoes seemed to dim slightly, and the coldness quickly subsided.

Chen Shisheng's eyes flickered, and a panel appeared, displaying a new destiny chart.

Name: Chen Shisheng

【Destiny: Luck of the Qilin (White)】

[Destiny Sign: Thousand Needles Embroidering Bones (White): Qi and blood transform into threads, condensing strength into needles. Exquisite manipulation]

"Finally... I've obtained a new destiny."

His face lit up with joy, and he began to carefully consider the effects of the new destiny.

His vital energy flowed like a stream within him, constantly cleansing his body and bringing about changes.

As soon as he had a thought, his blood and qi began to flow backward, as if they were alive.

Chen Shisheng stopped immediately after just one try.

The area of ​​the body that had just been touched immediately felt a burning sensation.

Soon, after numerous trials, Chen Shisheng immediately realized the significance of this destiny.

His control over the body's Qi and blood has become stronger.

The most obvious manifestation of this is Chen Shisheng's current mastery of the body's Qi and blood.

Generally speaking, the better one's control over Qi and blood, the better one's control over the body.

The strength that can be exerted is naturally stronger.

More importantly, Chen Shisheng was surprised to find that under the [Thousand Needles Embroidered Bones] state, his blood exchange speed had increased.

Although it is extremely slow, it is ultimately a good thing.

Chen Shisheng could understand this.

After all, his increased control extends not only to his body but also to his mind and consciousness.

"I can now do some of the details that I didn't understand before with the Bull Fist style."

Chen Shisheng stood up and practiced the Bull Fist once, carefully feeling the changes in his body.

His body felt lighter, his blood and energy were stronger, his eyes were sharper, and he could see more.

This was quite fruitful!

Chen Shisheng withdrew his stance, feeling much more at ease.

With a new destiny, his path to rejuvenation will be accelerated.

He sat down again, looking at the red embroidered shoes in his hand, his gaze slightly narrowed.

"These shoes...are they alive? Or is something attached to them?"

He examined it carefully but found nothing unusual.

These are just ordinary shoes, women's shoes.

Beside him, Liu Yun, who was about to call him for a late-night snack, saw Chen Shisheng staring intently at the red embroidered shoes in his hand.

A blush crept onto her face; she had no idea that her brother-in-law had this hobby.

Pretending to cough twice, Liu Yun approached, hesitating to speak.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Chen Shisheng looked up at her, somewhat puzzled.

"Oh? It's nothing, it's nothing. I just wanted to invite you to dinner."

Liu Yun's reverie was interrupted, her face flushed, and she turned and ran away.

The next morning.

When Chen Shisheng arrived at the Qin residence, the surroundings had been restored to their original state, and the ground had been swept clean.

He did not hide the truth about killing the red figure.

In today's world, only those who are truly useful can receive preferential treatment in terms of resources.

Besides, he has no secrets to hide, so why should he abandon this achievement?

Enter the courtyard.

Liu Feng and the others had already begun training.

After what happened last night, everyone learned of Hongying's existence and also knew that Hongying was dead.

Then some brave warriors moved back, and seeing that the others were alright, everyone returned to the Qin residence.

Upon seeing Chen Shisheng walk in, everyone tacitly stopped what they were doing.

She looked him up and down with the same gaze she had used to scrutinize Zhu You.

There was envy, disdain, and jealousy, but more than anything, there was longing and a desire to please.

Everyone knows that by resolving this problem, Chen Shisheng's future path will be far broader than theirs.

Perhaps, he will become a gang leader like Zhang Kuang in the future, and be valued by the Second Young Master Wen.

Chen Shisheng acted as if nothing had happened, completely unconcerned, and walked straight to the corner to begin his training for the day.

Seeing Chen Shisheng's actions, the others resumed their previous actions, but spoke much softer than before.

Before doing anything, she would always look at him, as if seeking his approval.

All the martial artists in the courtyard unconsciously became somewhat reserved and unnatural.

Just like a student in the academy who had never stood out before, who suddenly passed the imperial examination.

Everyone, even those without the teacher's permission, felt inferior to that person.

Under these circumstances, the martial artists in Pingyang Town actually began to subtly show signs of wanting Chen Shisheng as their leader.

Even though no one says it, everyone does it this way.

There was a unique tacit understanding between them.

For several days in a row, no more Red Shadow attacks occurred.

Everyone was relieved and resumed their previous patrols of the grain fields.

"Brother Chen, the Wen family is sending people; a new foreman is coming."

Chen Shisheng, who was sparring with Liu Feng, paused in his movements.

The two exchanged a blow and then separated.

"Who?"

He turned and asked.

"Zhu You" (祝由).

The martial artist quickly replied.
