In chaotic times, skill points are added: from hunter to martial saint, only killing and no mercy!

The next morning, Li Yi woke up from his love affair. The two women, exhausted from a night of passion, were fast asleep.

Seeing this, Li Yi didn't wake them. He got up, dressed, and left the bedroom.

After instructing the maid to prepare breakfast, Li Yi went to the backyard.

Because Li Yi was a martial artist and skilled in archery, the backyard of the Li residence was a huge training ground with an archery range.

咻咻 咻 ~

As soon as Li Yi arrived at the training ground, he heard several arrows whistling.

Looking up, one could see Li Yue holding a longbow, meticulously drawing the bow and nocking an arrow, practicing her archery skills.

Seeing this, Li Yi remained silent and stood aside, watching Li Yue quietly.

After a long while, Li Yue finished shooting a bucket of arrows, wiped the fine sweat from her forehead, and prepared to pick up the next bucket of arrows to continue practicing.

"Drawing the bow requires only a light touch, releasing the string with a breath as pure as snow."

Hearing Li Yi's voice in her ear, Li Yue was slightly taken aback, but then continued to practice archery as Li Yi had instructed.

According to Li Yi, Li Yuexiu shot three arrows.

These three arrows were swift, accurate, and powerful, embedding themselves firmly in the wooden target. Compared to the arrows Li Yue had shot before, they were not only more accurate but also significantly more powerful.

"Big brother, you're amazing!"

Li Yue was surprised to feel the changes in herself, and then continued shooting arrows.

After these several major battles, Li Yi's archery skills also improved significantly.

【Breaking Army Bow Technique (Mastery): 300/1600】

[Effect: Mastering the Seven Kills Technique grants the skill trait "Piercing Clouds and Breaking the Barrier"]

Since mastering the [Breaking Army Bow Technique], Li Yi's archery skills have improved further, and he has mastered the new killing move, Breaking Army Five Kills.

More importantly, after breaking through to the Great Perfection, Li Yi's aura finally underwent a transformation.

Now, Li Yi has successfully mastered the basic form of arrow intent!

Intent is a new power that can only be mastered when martial arts skills have been practiced to an unfathomable level, coupled with a great deal of insight and talent.

The most famous of all is sword intent!

Li Yi's arrow intent is on par with his sword intent.

When Li Yi's archery skills reach a higher level one day, this nascent form of arrow intent will be able to transform again and become true arrow intent.

Even with this rudimentary form of arrow intent, Li Yi's archery power had increased two or three times!

Recalling his own experience in archery training, Li Yi continued to guide Li Yue's practice.

About an hour later, Li Yue finally finished her practice.

The brother and sister sat on the ground, eating the medicinal meal that Wang Tao had prepared.

"Little sister, how's your martial arts level now?"

When Li Yi was instructing Li Yue on archery earlier, he had already seen that his younger sister had reached a level of proficiency in archery.

Upon hearing Li Yi's question, Li Yue's face revealed a smug expression.

"Brother, I've already reached the peak of the second level of Body Refinement!"

Li Yue's words surprised Li Yi greatly.

It should be noted that Li Yue is only thirteen or fourteen years old, which is not yet the age for marriage, even in the State of Chen.

But her progress in martial arts was surprisingly rapid!

Moreover, Li Yue is practicing the even more profound [Wind-Breathing Breathing Technique]!

This talent is truly remarkable!

Thinking of this, Li Yi had a sudden thought and felt that he needed to seriously plan Li Yue's future.

After chatting with Li Yue for a while, Li Yi left the training ground and began inspecting the military town.

Although the war has temporarily ceased, the Qing Kingdom could launch a counterattack at any time.

By the time Li Yi finished inspecting the blacksmith's workshop, bid farewell to Master Tang, and returned to the Li residence, it was already dusk.

"Big brother, you're back!"

As soon as Li Yi entered the Li residence, he saw Li Xin discussing some miscellaneous matters with Wang Tao in the front courtyard.

"Thank you for your hard work these past few days!"

Looking at Li Xin, whose eyes shone like stars, Li Yi was filled with satisfaction.

During his northern expedition against the Xiongnu, Li Xin was in charge of the affairs of Fenghu Camp, Polu Camp, Fenghu Village, Li Mansion and other places.

Even with the assistance of Wang Tao and others, this was still an extremely tedious and complicated matter.

However, Li Xin arranged everything in an orderly manner, without any mishaps.

None of the tens of thousands of men under Li Yi's command had any complaints; they all trusted Li Xin implicitly.

"Being able to share my brother's burdens is the best thing; what's so hard about it?"

In front of Li Yi, Li Xin dropped his pretense and spoke with a hint of shyness.

At this moment, Li Xin finally regained the spiritedness of a seventeen-year-old boy.

Seeing this, Li Yi also started chatting and laughing with him.

"Li Xin, how's your martial arts skill? It hasn't fallen behind, has it?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xin was slightly taken aback, then said somewhat embarrassedly:

"I have far too many things to do. I'm only at the third level of Body Refinement right now, and as for the [Wind and Thunder Sword Technique] you taught me, I've only reached the mastery level!"

Hearing Li Xin's words, Li Yi was shocked once again.

Although Li Xin, who is a few years older than Li Yue, had his muscles and bones strengthened by his father's secret medicine, his progress is still quite remarkable.

It should be noted that Li Xin also had to manage many miscellaneous tasks.

Looking at the anxious Li Xin, Li Yi pondered for a moment before signaling him to draw the long sword from his waist.

"Come, unleash your full power and attack me!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xin immediately understood Li Yi's thoughts and, without further hesitation, unleashed the full power of the [Wind and Thunder Sword Technique].

Taking advantage of this free time, Li Yi planned to guide Li Xin and his sister in their cultivation, so that they would not go astray in their martial arts.

For several days in a row, Li Yi's life was extremely regular.

He instructed Li Yue in the morning, inspected Fenghu Village in the afternoon, and taught Li Xin in the evening.

As night fell and the city lights came on, groups of tall, burly military officers walked toward the Li residence.

Tonight is the 100-day celebration for Li Yi's eldest son, Li Zhuang.

Officers from Li Yi's Wind Tiger Battalion and Breaking Barbarian Battalion were all invited to celebrate the young master's birthday. Even General Guan and Song Jie, who were stationed in key locations and unable to attend, sent their trusted confidants with congratulatory gifts.

For a time, everyone in the Li residence was quite busy, and Li Yi was constantly receiving people in the hall.

Soon, most of the guests had arrived, and just as Li Yi was about to announce the start of the banquet, Wang Tao rushed in from the front hall.

"What's going on?" Li Yi frowned.

Could it be that the Qing Kingdom has invaded? Or have the Xiongnu returned?

As Li Yi looked on in confusion, Wang Tao bent down and whispered in his ear. The people at the banquet in the hall also stopped talking and looked at Li Yi with curiosity.

"Sir, two wandering Taoist priests, one big and one small, have come to the gate. They say they want a cup of wine."

"I noticed that those two individuals possessed extraordinary bearing and seemed to be skilled in martial arts, so I had them led to the gatehouse. What should we do, sir?"

Hearing Wang Tao's words, Li Yi immediately fell into deep thought.

As his chief steward, Wang Tao had met many high-ranking officials and martial artists. The fact that he treated these two with such caution suggested that they were indeed extraordinary.

Thinking of this, Li Yi said directly:

"Today is my son Li Zhuang's 100-day celebration. Since a Taoist priest has come to our door, perhaps it is fate."

"Wang Tao, please invite these two people to the main hall for a banquet."

Having received Li Yi's order, Wang Tao quickly led the two into the hall.

The elder of the two was a Taoist priest in his thirties, dressed in a dark Taoist robe and sporting a few wisps of green beard.

Beside him was a young Taoist boy of eight or nine years old, who was tugging at the Taoist's sleeve and curiously looking around the hall.

"This humble Taoist priest, Shui Chengzi, greets Commandant Li."

The Taoist priest performed a Taoist salute and spoke slowly.

Li Yi waved his hand and replied, "Today is my son's 100-day celebration. It is a great coincidence that we can meet you, Daoist Master. Please take a seat and have some simple food."

Shui Chengzi's every move was extraordinary, and his temperament was even more remarkable. No wonder Wang Tao dared not make decisions on his own.

"Then I'll have to trouble you."

Immediately afterwards, Shui Chengzi, accompanied by his young disciple, entered the banquet.

For a time, the entire Li residence was filled with singing and dancing, and everyone was drinking heartily.

As the drinking progressed, several military officers joined in, wrestling and making merry in the open space.

Seeing this, Li Yi set up a prize, which attracted everyone to participate.

Relying on his innate superhuman strength, Han Jia ultimately prevailed over everyone and won the prize.

As a result of this incident, the various factions under Li Yi's command became more harmonious.

Soon, the banquet came to an end.

After watching Li Zhuang's 100-day celebration, everyone took their leave.

After having Wang Tao see everyone off, Li Yi looked at Shui Chengzi in the hall and smiled:

"Please rest at the manor today, Daoist Master. You may stay for a few more days if you wish."

Although Li Yi couldn't quite tell the Taoist's true nature, Fenghu Village was his stronghold, garrisoned with three thousand elite troops, and even if Liang Shuichengzi could turn the tide, he wouldn't be able to do anything.

Listening to Li Yi's words, Shui Chengzi stroked his beard and slowly said:

"As you just said, it is by fate that I was able to meet you."

Li Yi nodded: "Yes, I have said that before."

Shui Chengzi chuckled, took out a longevity lock, placed it beside Li Zhuang's cradle, and said in a deep voice:

"I do have some connection with your Li family, but that connection does not lie with your son."

"It's your younger siblings!"

My sister-in-law?

Li Yi looked at Shui Chengzi in surprise, while Li Xin and Li Yue exchanged bewildered glances.

"That's right, they are your younger brother and sister."

Shui Chengzi looked at Li Xin and the other two with admiration in his eyes:

"To be honest, I arrived at Fenghu Village three days ago and happened to see Li Xin and another person practicing martial arts."

"I have observed your younger brother and sister-in-law for several days and found that they have some talent. I have taken a liking to their talent and want to take them into my family."

Do you want to take my younger brother and sister into your family?

Although Li Yi had already intended to find a good way out for Li Xin and his companion after discovering their extraordinary talents, the origins of Shui Chengzi were somewhat unclear.

As the saying goes, the eldest brother is like a father, so he can't just send his younger siblings away.

Thinking about this, Li Yi carefully said:

"I wonder which gate the commander came from?"

Shui Chengzi bowed and smiled:

"This humble Taoist is a member of the White Cloud Temple, and Tian is the personal disciple of the Temple's abbot!"

As he spoke, Shui Chengzi's aura gradually rose, and a righteous and magnanimous spirit filled the hall.

Faced with this imposing aura, Li Yi felt an immense pressure coursing through his body.

Feeling this powerful force, Li Yi looked at Shui Chengzi in surprise and shock:

"Is this true qi?"

"Why is your internal energy so powerful?"
