Chapter 117 Yun Huizi Visits

"What, you're not thinking of running off with the money and not paying it back, are you?"

"Be careful not to become the hero of other rangers."

In just a short while, Shen Yi returned with several pill bottles.

Seeing the change in Lu Cheng's expression, he made a guess on the spot.

Lu Cheng put his mind at ease, not expecting that his casual thought would be seen through by Shen Yi.

Was my expression that obvious?

Lu Cheng was about to brush it off when Shen Yi pointed at the silver medal in his hand, clicked her tongue, and shook her head: "They actually made an exception and gave me a silver medal!"

"I think your uncle's surname is not only Tu, but his given name is probably just Yuan, right?"

At this moment, Tu Yuan came out from the inner room. Hearing this, he was not angry. Instead, he glanced at Lu Cheng but did not say anything.

Seeing this, Shen Yi subtly nodded her chin toward the teacup on the table, her lips moving slightly, silently urging Lu Cheng to kneel down and offer tea.

It was obvious that Tu Yuan was considering adopting a "godson".

If Lu Cheng does as instructed, he will become Tu Yuan's long-lost nephew.

As the commander of the Zhenwu Army of a prefecture, his status was no less than that of a sect leader like Yun Lingzi.

Their power and the resources they control far exceed what is known to all.

Putting everything else aside, getting a Qi Condensation Pill is a piece of cake.

Lu Cheng pursed his lips and cupped his hands to Tu Yuan and Shen Yi: "Lu Cheng thanks the two generals for their care. In the future, if you have any orders, Lu Cheng will do his best and will never refuse."

Shen Yi's expression changed, she pointed at Lu Cheng and said "you" before sighing.

What a great opportunity!

Lu Cheng only needs to acknowledge a relative to make up for Shen Yi's past ten years of hard work.

pity.

Tu Yuan waved his hand and took a sip of tea: "We are all serving the court, so there's no question of favoritism."

,

"Besides, you received your token from me, so any merits you make in the future will naturally be counted towards the Zhenwu Army of Dongyang County."

Lu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Tu Yuan's tone showed no dissatisfaction.

Sometimes, refusing the kindness of an important person can make them feel like they've lost face.

Fortunately, Tu Yuan did not have such thoughts.

After leaving Tu Yuan's residence, Shen Yi and Lu Cheng walked one after the other.

Looking at the silver token in Lu Cheng's hand, Shen Yi complained with a hint of disappointment, "You little rascal, you really don't know what's good for you!"

'

"What a great opportunity! Although the Zhenwu Division rewards the capable, having a powerful backer makes all the difference."

""

"Don't underestimate General Tu just because he's only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining. He has a senior uncle at the Refining Demon Realm behind him."

""

"Moreover, among the riders who received silver medals from him, two have already been promoted to gold medals."

""

Upon hearing this, Lu Cheng paused, then sighed, "Truly impressive."

,

"Serves you right for not listening to me just now," Shen Yi said with a hint of schadenfreude. "How about it, regretting it now?"

Lu Cheng shook his head; he didn't regret it.

They were simply marveling at Tu Yuan's sharp eye.

The saying goes, "A fine horse is easy to find, but a discerning eye is rare."

Accurately judging people is not something everyone can do.

Only a commander of an army is qualified to recruit people into the cavalry.

Tu Yuan served as the commander of the Zhenwu Army for no more than ten years.

In other words, within ten years, he accurately identified two martial artists capable of breaking through to the Refining Fiend Realm and successfully befriended them.

If I include myself, there are three Refining Fiend Martial Artists.

Based on this alone, Tu Yuan will surely become more than one military commander in the future.

However, asking Lu Cheng to curry favor for personal gain would truly go against his conscience.

Lu Cheng bowed to Shen Yi and said in a steady tone, "I will always remember the kindness of the two generals."

,

"Whether it's the guidance you gave me today, the medicine you provided, or the cavalry token you received, it's all an immense favor. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay it."

"As for the general's suggestion to recognize relatives—"

Lu Cheng paused for a moment, then continued in a more emphasizing tone, "It's not that Lu Cheng is ungrateful, but the path of martial arts ultimately requires one to walk it step by step on one's own."

"It is a blessing to be helped by a benefactor, but if relying on him becomes a habit, even if you stand very high in the future, you will inevitably be in danger of falling into a trap."

Shen Yi shook his head: "You've had it too easy, kid."

"That's enough. People can't teach you everything, but you can learn something after just one lesson. Some things, you have to experience them yourself to truly understand how to choose."

,

Lu Cheng simply smiled and bowed, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

"Oh, by the way, do you still remember your brother Zhao Cheng?"

Lu Cheng's heart tightened. He wondered why Shen Yi had suddenly mentioned Zhao Cheng. Could something have happened?

He hurriedly asked, "Has something happened to him? That shouldn't be the case; we just finished communicating last month."

,

Shen Yi smiled and said, "No need to worry, it's a good thing."

"Xue Yin has broken through the Body Refinement stage and has been officially promoted to Captain of Yangcheng Zhenwu Camp. He has sent the order for Zhao Cheng to be appointed as a Hundred-Man General to General Tu."

""

"Oh?" Lu Cheng was quite surprised. "Brother Zhao actually joined the Zhenwu Camp? That's not bad, his personality is suitable too."

"Has the official appointment document been issued?"

2

The "River-Blocking Halberd Technique" has been deduced to the middle grade of the Earth rank, but Lu Cheng has not yet found a suitable channel or time to develop it.

The letter requesting money from Changfeng Escort Agency was also sent through Zhenwu Camp via "remote deposit and withdrawal".

Having received Shen Yi's affirmative answer, Lu Cheng did not shy away from discussing Shen Yi's presence.

The new "River-Blocking Halberd Technique" was immediately written down.

Then, Shen Yi was asked to attach it to the document and send it to Zhao Cheng together.

Shen Yi looked at Lu Cheng seriously for the first time: "It seems that General Tu has bet on the right person."

To be able to casually give away such a precious martial arts skill.

The words "loyalty" and "brotherhood" are definitely true.

As they approached the gate of Zhenwu Military Camp, Shen Yi stopped and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

"Yun Lingzi and the other two went into seclusion, and the Dongyang Sect appointed Yun Huizi as the temporary sect leader."

"Ke Yunhui is a legitimate member of the eleventh lineage, and he has a soft personality. You can see his true stance from this wanted notice."

Lu Cheng took the mask out of his pocket and put it on his face: "Let them issue a warrant for my arrest if they want."

"My master and his two masters will emerge from seclusion sooner or later, and then everything will naturally fall into place."

Shen Yi watched as Lu Cheng put the mask on his face and became a different person, and couldn't help but laugh: "This mask has come in handy in your hands."

,

After saying that, he said seriously, "There's no problem with that. You didn't do it in the first place, so the longer it drags on, the better."

"I just can't understand why anyone would attack Ge Long."

,

"Compared to killing someone directly, kidnapping someone without anyone noticing undoubtedly requires a lot of effort."

"However, this also shows that Ge Long is safe."

Lu Cheng nodded: "The general is right, so I plan to go to the Dongyang Villa in the city first."

"Those two punches can't be taken for nothing; we need to find a way to collect some interest first."

Just then, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the camp gate: "General Tu, Shen Yi of the Zhenwu Army has harbored traitors from the Dongyang Sect and plotted against our Dongyang Sect elders. Please give an explanation."

Lu Cheng and Lu Cheng exchanged a glance, both sensing the surprise in each other's eyes.

The person who arrived was actually Yun Huizi.

And judging from the sound of his voice, he was clearly extremely angry!
