The proof of Emperor Wu began with daily rewards for diligence.

Chapter 77 Spicy! Parents' Killing is Here!

The sick leave I finally managed to get through by deception is about to expire.

Chen Jue is also a master of time management. He not only spends an average of 12 hours a day cultivating his internal strength and martial arts, but also produces a steady supply of Five-Spread Spirit Sprout Pills every day.

Despite this training intensity and schedule comparable to 007, he still managed to find some free time to instruct He Yuanshan in internal martial arts, help He Tangtang enroll in cultural etiquette classes, accompany Pei Qingying to go hiking and watch movies, take walks in the park, and have picnics and autumn outings.

What's that saying again? Time is like water in a sponge; you can always squeeze some out.

At the same time, Chen Jue's true qi accumulated steadily to 2955 strands.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he is only three days away from transforming the Five Elements True Qi within his body from "mountain streams" into "rushing rivers," thus entering the late stage of the True Qi Realm.

In addition, Chen Jue's proficiency in the Concealing Spirit Technique also successfully broke through eight thousand, greatly increasing his ability to hide his aura. He could transform his aura into a pile of inanimate objects similar to stones.

"Cousin! Just act like a human being!"

'

"I'm so glad you signed me up for so many martial arts classes! But I don't like those etiquette classes!"

""

"I'm not a socialite, what's the point of learning those things?!"

""

The villa was packed with people for the last dinner of the holiday.

With two blood-soaked crumpled pieces of paper stuck in her nostrils, He Tangtang complained to Chen Jue about her terrible etiquette class.

Ever since winning the martial arts championship, this crazy girl's vanity has been expanding infinitely. She's afraid that an outstanding scion of a powerful family will transfer to the school and surpass and suppress her.

Therefore, she transformed herself into a complete martial arts fanatic.

He wanted to spend 20 out of 24 hours a day cultivating, and he consumed Qi and Blood Pills like crazy, without any expense involved.

The direct consequence was an excess of qi and blood that couldn't be converted in time, resulting in daily nosebleeds. Pei Qingying also needed to prepare herbal meals to clear heat and relieve exterior symptoms every day, causing Chen Jue to suffer an undeserved disaster and be neglected by his girlfriend.

"You dare to say that! Are you even human? I'll prepare a month's worth of pills for you, and you'll have chewed them up in a week!"

'

"Do you think I'm some kind of sugar bean? You've made Qingqing prepare medicinal meals for you every day, leaving her no time for me, her real boyfriend!"

While angrily confronting He Tang, Chen Jue picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork with pineapple and gave it to Pei Qingying next to him at the table.

The little girl smiled faintly and took a bite of the sweet and sour pork coated in sweet and sour sauce. Her beautiful eyes sparkled and her eyebrows curved.

He Yin and Chen Yun exchanged a glance and then let out a series of soft, aunt-like laughs.

After several dishes, the laughter and chatter at the dinner table gradually subsided. He Yuanshan, who was sitting opposite Chen Jue, invited his nephew to talk outside in the courtyard.

"Ah Jue, ever since Qi Kun took office at the Kaiyang Garrison, the Shi Huo Sect in the Kaiyang and Yangcheng districts has begun to proselytize without restraint—"

"Even the original drug testing business of the Rat Gang was transferred to the Fire Church."

"I see that the Qi family and the Fire Cult are deeply intertwined. If things really come to this, perhaps we should resign voluntarily?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jue glanced at the dangerous stars in the sky and said with a faint smile, "Even if we wanted to resign, Qi Kun probably wouldn't agree—"

"He transferred my uncle to the margins of logistics because he didn't want me to have someone backing me up in the field patrol group."

""

"I guess he felt it would be beneath him to take action against me personally, but he wasn't willing to let me go, so he was secretly plotting something bad."

""

"You mean, let's go to the garrison first?" He Yuanshan wasn't surprised at all by his nephew's choice.

"Of course we should go and take a look."

Chen Jue's eyes flashed coldly as he said, "My uncle has worked in the garrison for nearly twenty years, and I also passed the examination to become a patrol inspector."

"Why should we resign immediately just because the Qi family takes office?"

There is no such logic in the world.

"It's up to you—but Qi Kun is a powerful expert at the Spirit Realm. Don't confront him directly. You should avoid his sharp edge if necessary," He Yuanshan advised.

Chen Jue was about to say, "Should I avoid his sharp edge?"

But thinking about it, he realized that it was too pretentious to say that to his uncle, so he held back and said, "Don't worry, I'll deal with whatever comes my way. I'll act according to the situation tomorrow."

Seeing that Chen Juexin was determined, He Yuanshan said nothing more and turned back to the living room of the Western-style building.

As usual, Chen Jue escorted Pei Qingying to the door to wait for her car.

Before parting, the two gave each other a hurried and awkward hug, which served as their farewell for the day.

The black car rolled over the asphalt road, stirring up a gentle breeze.

Chen Jue watched his girlfriend disappear at the end of the road.

Turning around, he saw a woman with a crimson moon-dyed silk shawl draped over her shoulders and wearing a bright red, chest-length dress standing steadily opposite him.

She wore a gold hairpin and extremely gorgeous clothes, with peonies embroidered on the front and cuffs, and a four-foot-long red-dyed sword hanging at her waist. Her ribbons fluttered like clouds, making her look like a banished immortal.

Looking at that face that bore a striking resemblance to Pei Qingying, Chen Jue's heart skipped a beat.

Spicy!

He had spent more than two months with Pei Qingying, but in the end, it still alarmed her family. They were going to come and break them up. Chen Jue could already imagine that this woman from a prominent family, who looked like Pei Qingying's older sister, would ruthlessly throw him a large check from Pei's Bank and make him promise to leave her sister forever.

Breaking up a loving couple is truly despicable!

Although the other party hadn't spoken yet, Chen Jue was already sweating profusely.

"Oh! So you're my sister's little sweetheart she's been keeping secret? Not bad at all. Five years have passed, and you two haven't forgotten each other at all!"

The woman's voice was androgynous, just like her height and appearance. She was a head taller than Pei Qingying, and her temperament was more mature, with a touch more of the heroic spirit of a martial artist.

Chen Jue felt that he had heard this voice somewhere before, but perhaps because it had been a long time and the atmosphere was awkward, he couldn't recall it immediately.

"Sister, you're just kidding."

"We didn't hide, and we hadn't seen my sister for five years."

,

Chen Jue tried his best to make his words sound less harsh.

"————" The woman in red looked at Chen Jue in surprise, stared into his eyes for a long time, and when she saw that his eyes did not seem to be feigning affection, she suddenly smiled.

"You two are really interesting!"

She crossed the road and came to Chen Jue.

Do you know Pei Qingying's status in the Pei family within the inner city?

"I don't know," Chen Jue shook his head truthfully.

"The third young lady of the legitimate line, the second in line to inherit the Pei family." The woman in red stared directly into Chen Jue's eyes, her words aggressive.

"Do you think you, a commoner from the outer city, are worthy?"

Chen Jue closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He knew beforehand that Pei Qingying was most likely born into the Pei family in the inner city.

But given the girl's poor martial arts talent and the complete lack of security personnel, he figured she was at most a young lady from a collateral branch of the family.

Unexpectedly, this little guy quietly gave him a big surprise.

A young lady from a first-class family—

If he hadn't earned an "immortal" title while he was young, would he have been able to marry her?

Hang!

"Yes, sister."

""

Although he was inwardly groaning, Chen Jue wouldn't back down; he felt an immense sense of "deservingness."

0

Pei Qingying is such a good girl, she deserves someone as good as him.

"Talk is cheap; show us what you've got."

Seeing that Chen Jue did not feel ashamed or shrink back because of Pei Qingying's identity, the woman in red couldn't help but look at him with more respect.

She's not here to cause trouble.

Five years ago, she had already caused trouble once, and now she's just here to watch the excitement.

Look at the boy who was persuaded to give up by her with just a phone call and a few words five years ago; look at what he has become now.

"Oh, do you want to see my skills? Sure."

,

Chen Jue was not afraid of being tested; he was afraid that the other party would not give him a chance.

After saying this, he unleashed his sword technique, "Within the six directions, I alone am supreme," encompassing his opponent.

There is no need to display one's powerful Five Elements Qi.

This swordplay, imbued with his personal emotions, further highlights his current combat strength and potential.

A faint sense of pressure enveloped him.

The woman in red was startled and grabbed Chen Jue's wrist: "Six Paths True Meaning?! Where did you learn that?!"
