Text-based martial arts: A nighttime rendezvous with the gang leader's wife in a dilapidated te

Bai Zhiyun sat cross-legged on the ground, her snow-white long dress and single-layered blouse accentuating her exquisite and curvaceous figure.

However, at this moment, you dare not look at it even once.

Although the beautiful third wife was still adjusting her internal energy with her eyes closed, the pressure of her full-force cultivation at the acquired realm made even your breathing quite rapid.

Now you finally understand what a powerful martial artist truly is in this world.

[It's like a complete suppression deep within your genes. At this moment, your passion for martial arts has reached its peak!]

Just as you were silently making this vow in your heart, a voice rang out:

"Dr. Chen, what brings you here?"

As you open your eyes, the almost tangible pressure has vanished.

[Bai Zhiyun, now appearing normal, her face no longer pale or contorted with pain, smiled as she looked at you.]

[You gave the excuse you had prepared beforehand:]

"I went back to Jinling to pick up some things, and I thought I'd also like to come here to buy some tools for grinding herbs and refining pills, as well as some weapons for self-defense. The Broken Star Pavilion opened in Jinling City, so I came here, but I got a little lost, and that's why..."

"Lost?"

Bai Zhiyun was somewhat speechless and suspicious, but looking at your frail little body, she nodded.

Although it sounds illogical, it seems to be the only possibility at the moment.

(Please remember the website 20 ...

This further solidified her belief that you were the one who would descend to save her tonight!

[System Notification: Bai Zhiyun's affection for you has increased by 30 points. Current affection level: 60 points (Heart Fluttering)]

Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow.

Wow, this life-saving grace is really useful!

As for the favorability between Long Qingyu and Cao Qing, the former seems to have taken advantage of the situation, while the latter has been patiently cultivating the relationship.

However, compared to now, Bai Zhiyun, whom he has only met three times, has been completely overwhelmed.

[60 points of favorability!]

As you know, the higher the favorability rating, the harder it is to increase.

[60 points is clearly a threshold. Once this threshold is reached, Cao Qing will truly trust him and teach him martial arts. The female characters will also undergo a transformation from ordinary friendship to something more.]

As your favorability rating increases, Bai Zhiyun's gaze towards you gradually becomes slightly more special.

Yes, while the Shattered Star Pavilion does belong to the Shen family, it has been managed by Bai Zhiyun for the past ten years, and most of its staff are her people.

[That's precisely why, without her orders and instructions, ordinary people would absolutely not come.]

She reached out, her cold fingers gently touching your cheek.

"That old dog Shen Fu truly has no eyes to recognize a gem! It's such a waste that such a brilliant and talented person as Young Master Chen is only a doctor!"

Her words seemed to imply something deeper; the painstaking efforts and unbearable loneliness she had endured over the past ten years felt especially intense and unbearable on this night.

However, you seemed oblivious to the burning intensity in your eyes, simply shaking your head calmly.

"I am already quite content to have survived in this world. If Madam is not in any serious condition, then I shall take my leave! Otherwise, a lone man and a lone woman in public would damage Madam's reputation..."

You made a move to turn and leave, ending this pre-arranged act of saving a life.

However, just as you predicted, at this moment, your roles have completely reversed with Bai Zhiyun. She is no longer the helpless lamb with chaotic internal energy, but a powerful martial artist who has now advanced to the Inner Qi Realm and is only one step away from entering the 'Opening Aperture' level!

[You had just turned around when her voice rang out again: "Young Master Chen, it's just the two of us here, so it definitely won't get back to anyone! Besides, we're both upright and honest, so why should we be afraid of what others say?"]

At this point, her voice suddenly became much lower, as if it were ringing in your ear: "Or perhaps, Young Master Chen, you actually have ulterior motives. Although I couldn't control my body just now, I clearly felt Young Master Chen's finger strength..."

Upon hearing this, your cheeks flushed slightly. You quickly turned around and waved your hand somewhat awkwardly, "Third, Third Madam, I was only trying to find the Qi-Restoring Pill to save your life, I absolutely did not mean to be disrespectful to you..."

Looking at your appearance, the Third Madam chuckled, and in an instant, the courtyard, bathed only in moonlight and the pond's water, blossomed like a hundred flowers.

[System Notification: Bai Zhiyun's affection for you +2, Current Affection Level: 62 (Heart Fluttering)]

At this moment, you feel that the Third Madam's gaze towards you has become even more intense.

You subconsciously swallowed.

However, at that moment, Bai Zhiyun suddenly regained her composure, stood up slightly, and bowed to you.

"I am deeply grateful to Young Master Chen for saving me from this ordeal. Otherwise, I would have lost my life, let alone broken through to the Qi Condensation Realm. In any case, Young Master Chen has shown me a life-saving grace!"

You seemed unprepared for the change in circumstances and shook your head, saying, "I wasn't much of a help; the Third Madam is truly blessed."

Bai Zhiyun shook her head, then her serious expression vanished, and she winked at you: "In that case, Young Master Chen, would you be willing to give me a chance to repay you?"

A slight surge of excitement welled up within you. Yes, your share of the Shattered Star Tower was finally coming!

This is an unimaginable fortune!

Thinking of this, you looked at Bai Zhiyun before you: "Healing the sick and saving lives is a doctor's duty, Madam, there's no need to be so polite!"

[System Notification: Bai Zhiyun's affection for you +4, Current Affection Level: 66 (Heart Fluttering)]

Bai Zhiyun shook her head: "What are you saying, young master? Does my life not deserve my gratitude? Do you perhaps think I'm just a widow of the Shen family, and that I have no worth?"

[She appeared angry, yet her eyes held a girlish charm and liveliness. Even though you had witnessed Long Qingyu's breathtaking beauty, you were still slightly taken aback by this allure.]

Seeing your reaction, Bai Zhiyun felt much relieved.

She quickly continued, "To be honest, Young Master Chen, I currently control most of the Shen family's businesses in Jinling City, and the Shattered Star Pavilion is just one of them. If you're willing, ten thousand taels of silver can be delivered to your residence immediately..."

Ten thousand taels?

That's a hundred million in real life? Chen Xuan's breathing quickened at that moment.

However, before he could even see the selection option, the next character quickly appeared:

Bai Zhiyun shook her head: "Young master, your virtue is so refined, and I would not wish to let such mere gold and silver tarnish our relationship. However, besides these, all I possess is martial arts. But you have Physician Cao as your teacher, and if I were to rashly impart martial arts to you, I fear it would displease Physician Cao."

At this point, she feigned a troubled expression, thought for a moment, then blushed and looked intently at you, speaking frankly:

"After much deliberation, all I can offer is this wretched, withered beauty. If you don't mind, young master, may I serve you with my plain looks? What do you say?"

Chen Xuan looked at the characters in front of him and the options that slowly appeared.

He blinked. Damn, is it really that straightforward?

They're not ready yet!
