Becoming a saint begins with the infinite accumulation of destiny.

But Chen Shisheng is different. He has a destiny and a fate that allows him to regenerate blood faster than the average person.

This restriction was not an obstacle for him at all.

As for the meat of exotic beasts...

The area outside the city is a veritable goldmine. If he's diligent enough, relying on his Bull Fist technique, he's confident he can withstand any Bone Forging martial artist head-on. In that case, the area outside the city will truly become his personal goldmine...

Of course, this is assuming we don't encounter demons, evil spirits, or even stronger martial artists.

After all, if there were monsters like black bears or mantises around, even he would have to stay far away and wouldn't dare to confront them head-on.

As night deepened, a black tide seemed to surge forth, rippling across the sky with waves of black light that continued to spread.

The crescent moon was hazy, its silvery light gradually obscured by dark clouds, revealing not a single ray of light.

The ship glided across the calm river, splitting in two. Amidst the men's vigorous paddling and shouts, the cargo ship finally arrived at the dock.

"Mr. Chen, the cargo on the ship has been unloaded ashore as you instructed. What do you think..."

Xiao Shan trotted up to Chen Shisheng, hunched over, and asked ingratiatingly.

The scene of Chen Shisheng killing someone on the boat still lingers in his mind.

This made him, who already admired martial artists, even more respectful and deferential towards Chen Shisheng.

"Watch closely, no one is allowed to move except me!"

Chen Shisheng casually tossed out a few taels of silver and said coldly.

Since the Lin family is heartless, then don't blame him for being unjust!

"Yes! Don't worry, Mr. Chen, I will keep a close eye on things!"

Xiaoshan squeezed the broken silver piece hard, his heart trembled violently, and he quickly assured her.

.....

Inner city, the main hall of the Wen family.

"Brother Chen, what's the matter that you called me here in the middle of the night?"

Xu Song was still sleepy and yawning.

He was sleeping with a beautiful woman in the brothel when a servant came to report that a martial artist surnamed Chen was looking for him.

Guessing it might be Chen Shisheng, he quickly got up and rushed to the yard.

"I remember your family has connections with medicinal herbs. Do you buy firefish fruit?"

Chen Shisheng's figure was reflected on the yellow muddy ground, appearing somewhat dark and dull. He asked expressionlessly.

That's just how the world is; good people don't always get good rewards. From the moment the Lin family chose to use him as a stepping stone, they had to be prepared to be discovered by him.

Risk and reward are inherently interdependent; no one can gain benefits without bearing any risks.

Do you really think he's the kind of person who can't resist women?

Everyone else is plotting to kill him. If he doesn't do something, how will he survive in the city in the future?

If we don't really hurt these guys, then anyone can just come up and stomp on them.

"Brother Chen, you've struck it rich?! Firefish fruit is a hot commodity. Not long ago, the Water Floating Company raised tolls so high that our Five Rivers City's waterways were almost completely cut off. The fruit is also delicate and can only be transported by water. If you really have any, don't worry, I'll take care of it all. I'll make sure you eat them all!"

"But where did you get this?"

Xu Song's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was wide awake.

"it is good."

Chen Shisheng nodded and told him the location of the dock.

He then briefly explained the situation.

"Brother Chen, you're really capable, managing to get the Firefish Fruit back! Don't pity the Lin family; the way they did it shows they completely disregarded you. Their actions are tantamount to murder."

"Even if the Wen family finds out you've done this, they won't say a word. The Lin family is in the wrong; they deserve it!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Song was immediately filled with righteous indignation and expressed his indignation.

"Okay, you go ahead and do it."

Chen Shisheng nodded and said no more.

Chen Shisheng left Xu Song to handle the matter and headed home, no longer concerned with anything else.

When I got home, I could see from the outside that the house was brightly lit with oil lamps.

"Is your sister-in-law still awake?"

Too lazy to open the gate, Chen Shisheng leaped over the wall and into the courtyard.

From afar, he saw his sister-in-law sitting in the main room, with an oil lamp lit, knitting clothes in her hands. The clothes had two obvious round protrusions in the middle, indicating that they were women's clothing.

"Sister-in-law, I'm back."

Chen Shisheng walked in and said loudly.

"You...you're back, Shisheng. You've lost weight again."

Upon hearing the sound, Liu Yun looked up and saw Chen Shisheng standing in the courtyard. She was somewhat pleased, but then began to talk about his weight.

"You still need to eat properly even when you're out working; you'll get sick if you don't eat."

She put down what she was holding and brought out two bowls of braised pork from the kitchen, steaming hot, clearly prepared in advance.

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Chen Shisheng's mouth watered as he watched, and he began to wolf down his food.

During this time, Liu Yun asked him what he had been doing these past few days, but Chen Shisheng brushed her off by saying that the Wen family had arranged for him to do things.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Knitting a sweater?"

Chen Shisheng looked curiously at the sweater in her hand and asked.

"Yes, there's a river god festival in a few days. Sister Xiu next door saw that I'm good at sewing, so she specially asked me to alter her clothes so she can wear them to the river god festival in a few days."

Liu Yun said with a smile.

She enjoys the feeling of being recognized and needed.

"The River God Festival? You mean the one you mentioned last time?"

Chen Shisheng frowned; he had never heard anyone from the Wen family mention this thing.

It just doesn't seem very reliable.

"Yes. It was organized by some wealthy families in the outer and inner cities. They said it was to worship the river god and pray for good weather and peace in the coming year."

Liu Yun explained. Then she looked at Chen Shisheng expectantly.

"Shisheng, I want to go too..."

For Liu Yun's safety, Chen Shisheng specifically instructed his sister-in-law not to let her leave the inner city and go to the outer city.

At first, everything in the inner city was quite new to Liu Yun.

But as time went on, she realized she didn't have any close friends there, and although she had attended the gatherings of the wealthy women next door a few times, she could never truly fit in.

Gradually, the thought of her husband's uncertain fate made Liu Yun somewhat depressed.

"Um..."

Chen Shisheng pondered for a moment,

Looking at Liu Yun's expectant eyes, he finally sighed.

"You can go, but I have to come with you."

"Okay, speaking of which, it's been a long time since we went out. Back in the day, Brother Yun..."

Liu Yun said happily, but she spoke too quickly and then stopped abruptly when she mentioned Brother Chen Shisheng.

"I used to live in the outer city, and I was always worried about you whenever you went out. Actually, I didn't dare tell you when the Blackwater Gang came to visit several times because I was afraid you would worry."

"Now that's great, you've made something of yourself, moving into the inner city with me. If Brother Yun and Dad knew, they would be so happy. They've always said they wanted to come and see the inner city..."

Wiping her slightly reddened eyes, Liu Yun changed the subject and stopped talking about it.

"Then let's go with Sister Xiu."

"it is good."

Chen Shisheng paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

He didn't tell his sister-in-law about his older brother and the others' news. Telling her would only cause one more person to worry, and wouldn't solve the problem.

However, he secretly made up his mind that once things were resolved, he would go up Yinshan again to try to capture a few people alive and ask about the situation in Guijianchou Village.

As for the Lin family, consider this firefish fruit as their compensation to themselves.

The old woman from the Lin family had a deep and profound aura, clearly a martial artist. Even though she was a bit old, the Lin family was still a large and powerful family. If she had any connections and could call on her friends, I might not be able to get anything good out of her.

"I'll let it slide this time, but next time, I'll definitely have to check his character first!"

Chen Shisheng felt distressed, sighed, and thought to himself.

......

Late at night, at the Lin residence.

Chen Shisheng activated [Lizard Shadow Poison Body], transforming into a green figure without any fluctuation of blood energy, and quietly lurked on the roof of the Lin family's main hall.
