Chapter 128 The Butcher Upgrades, Martial Arts Training Efficiency Improves

Master Hu was very happy to have accepted a disciple, and Qin Chuan was also very happy to have become a disciple.

Both men had their own thoughts, but on their faces they both had smiles of "finally getting what they wanted." Qin Chuan naturally knew that what Hu Daoren had said earlier was nonsense, bullshit about "good potential" and "malleable talent," which was obviously just to fool people.

If his potential could truly be discerned in such a short time, why didn't he mention it at the docks or in the council chamber? Why is he suddenly coming to me now, inviting me and offering to take me on as a disciple? His eagerness is excessive.

This was clearly not directed at him as a person, but at something about him that interested the old Taoist priest.

Since that's the case, Qin Chuan naturally couldn't just sit and wait for his death. While chatting with Hu Daoren, he was secretly probing into Hu Daoren's background. Hu Daoren came from an ordinary background and grew up in a Taoist temple. He shouldn't be someone with a distinguished destiny or great fortune.

However, Qin Chuan was not careless. When he was about to ask for the title, he first activated his passive skill "Qi Luck Perception" to check the luck of the Taoist Hu. He saw an ordinary white luck, neither strong nor weak, nothing special.

A white background indicates that the person's fortune is average, but there are a few faint gray streaks mixed in, like a few old stains on a white cloth that cannot be washed off, which is a sign of bad luck.

Qin Chuan felt relieved.

Unless one is exceptionally lucky or at the height of their fortune, there is a good chance of successfully obtaining a title.

Without further hesitation, he directly asked for an official title.

But to be honest, he was a little scared, after all, that Taoist Hu was a Taoist priest, and the magic he used was really terrifying.

Therefore, when Qin Chuan asked for the title, he deliberately took a few steps forward, only half a step away from the Taoist priest, and his muscles were tense, ready to exert force at any moment.

If the old Taoist priest senses something is wrong and prepares to make a move, he will not hesitate to suddenly attack and use all his skills to slash at him with his sword.

But judging from the result, Qin Chuan was overthinking things this time. It's clear that the old Taoist priest didn't realize the effect of "seeking an official title".

Just as he and Hu Daoren were getting intimate, Ma Yanwang and Qian Laifu also came over.

Upon seeing the winged tiger's corpse on the ground, Ma Yanwang's gaze towards Hu Daoren held a somewhat inexplicable expression.

Although he had invited Hu Daoren, the two of them were simply getting what they wanted.

He needed Master Hu's elixirs and his shady methods, while Master Hu needed his essence, materials, and cover.

He knew that this disheveled Taoist priest was no ordinary person, but he had never seen him make a move in person.

This was the first time he had seen Master Hu make a real move. Previously, he had always relied on the water monkey to help him. King Ma had already suspected that Master Hu was somewhat hiding his true strength, but he hadn't expected him to be this powerful. The winged tiger had died so easily. Honestly, if it were him, unless he suddenly attacked, he wouldn't have been confident of victory.

Qian Laifu was somewhat surprised by what he had just witnessed. He had heard many strange stories and extraordinary people when he was in the underworld, but he had always regarded them as rumors. He never expected that Ma Yanwang would be able to invite such a person.

As they exchanged glances, each of them had their own thoughts.

When Hu Daoren saw the two men approaching, he draped his whisk over his arm and said, "Chief, Second Master, it's quite a joyous occasion that we were able to eliminate the traitors so smoothly. However, there's another piece of good news I'd like to share with you both."

He paused, stepped aside to reveal Qin Chuan standing behind him: "Today I gained a disciple, this young brother. This lad has good potential and is quite clever. I took him in as my disciple because I felt a connection with him. From now on, he is considered half a member of the Daoist sect, and I hope you two will take good care of him in the future."

Ma Yanwang turned his gaze to Qin Chuan. He remembered this kid; he was a manager under Qian Laifu and was said to be quite clever.

He didn't show any other expression on his face, but simply nodded slightly: "Oh? That's a good thing. It's rare for the Daoist Master to speak so kindly. It's this lad's good fortune to be able to become his disciple."

He glanced at Qin Chuan again, nodded, and said, "Now that you have become the Daoist's disciple, you should study hard from now on and not let the Daoist down."

Qian Laifu also came to his senses, looked at Qin Chuan, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, but he quickly put on a smile.

Qin Chuan was one of his men, but now that he had been taken in by Master Hu, it not only elevated the young man's status but also indirectly brought him closer to Master Hu.

He had no reason to refuse, so he reached out and patted Qin Chuan's other shoulder, laughing, "Good lad, you're usually so quiet, but you're destined for great things. From now on, follow the Daoist master and cultivate diligently. If you encounter any difficulties, just tell me."

With a perfectly balanced expression of gratitude and trepidation, Qin Chuan bowed deeply to the two men, saying, "Thank you, Chief, thank you, Master Qian. This disciple will certainly do my utmost to live up to your teachings."

With the matter of Song Hai settled, Qin Chuan took a moment to open the panel and check his gains.

[Kill one person, Professional Experience +30]

[Kill one person, Professional Experience +10]

[Butcher's experience maxed out, level up]

[Occupation: Butcher]

[Level: lv3→lv4 (5/400)]

[Professional Skill: Master Butcher]

Qin Chuan killed neither too many nor too few people today.

With the savings he had accumulated, the Butcher class was upgraded again, reaching level 4.

The biggest change from this upgrade is naturally the significantly enhanced understanding of the bodies of various animals.

Taking pigs as an example, when he saw a pig in the past, he knew where its vital points and weak points were, just like looking at a disassembled skeletal specimen with the positions of various organs such as the heart, liver, lungs, and intestines marked on it, clear but flat.

But now, when he closes his eyes, what appears in his mind is no longer a skeleton, but a living diagram, woven from countless fine blood vessels, tendons, muscle bundles and nerve fibers, like a disassembled diagram of modern flesh and blood. More importantly, this understanding is not limited to livestock.

There are still people!

Moreover, when it extends to humans, the changes it brings are not just "knowing how to kill," but "knowing how to move."

Qin Chuan clenched his fist, took a deep breath, and threw a punch. The fist pierced the air and made a short, explosive sound.

As expected, the result was just as he had predicted. Due to his increased understanding of the human body structure, he could now clearly feel the blood and qi surging from his dantian, along the twisting of his waist and hips, past his shoulders and elbows, all the way to his fist—a complete path.

He could feel how the force rose, like a long-suppressed heat converging and tightening in his dantian, then suddenly being released, pushing up his spine segment by segment, like a rising tide or a fully drawn bowstring, finally being pressed into his fist by his shoulder blades, exploding and dissipating.

In the past, when he practiced the Five Forms and Twelve Styles, he mostly relied on the momentary extreme enlightenment brought about by "a flash of inspiration." In that clear and bright state, he forcibly engraved Liu Ding's movements into his mind and then relied on that enlightenment to master them.

Although it is very efficient, the time is very short, and as the skills become more proficient, it becomes difficult to make progress as quickly as before.

But now that he has this "picture of the human body in flesh and blood," his practice is completely different.

Just like how others can only answer vaguely from memory during an exam, he brought his books into the exam room, able to refer to them at any time, knowing exactly where the force of each punch went, whether his blood and qi flowed smoothly, and whether his posture and power generation were accurate...

The answer key is right in front of you; all that's left is to fill in the correct answer.
