Chaotic World of Martial Arts: I Have a Spirit Pearl of Desire

"Okay, okay, all taken care of!"

Xu Changqing and Zhou Yunfei, who had been hiding inside the carriage, then jumped out.

The two exchanged a glance, both overjoyed!

This Chen You is not only incredibly strong, but also incredibly shrewd and experienced. If we can find a way to recruit him to our side, he will definitely become an unparalleled general capable of standing alone in the future!

At this moment, Zhao Zi couldn't help but speak up, "Chen You, I didn't expect you to have hidden yourself so well; you've actually reached the third rank!"

Chen You simply bowed politely to everyone and said, "It was nothing. Is everyone alright? Old Bai, your arm..."

Halfway through his sentence, Chen You glanced at Elder Bai's blood-soaked left arm, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

After all, just now Old Bai looked like he was depleted of qi and blood and on the verge of death, but now his cheeks have regained some color.

Elder Bai gave a wry smile upon hearing this, his eyes filled with relief: "I just took the healing pills I carry with me and forcibly suppressed my internal injuries. For the time being, I'm fine! As for this left arm, Young Hero Chen, there's no need to worry too much. I have a special healing medicine from the sect, the Bone-Setting Plaster. As long as we find a quiet place within a day to set the bone and apply the medicine, this arm can be perfectly restored."

"That's good." Chen You nodded slightly, her expression softening.

I never imagined that such a miraculous medicine existed in this world!

"Chen You, if it weren't for your heroic efforts, we would all probably have died at the hands of the Black Shark Gang. We owe you a great debt of gratitude this time. Once we are safely back in the manor, I will definitely give you credit for this and ask the family for a generous reward!" Zhao Zi said earnestly.

"Thank you, Miss Zhao. I would be very honored to accept your offer." Chen You accepted the offer without any pretense.

Although his strength was exposed in this battle, none of the people here had any grudges against him, so the exposure was no big deal!

Then, the guards quickly cleaned up the mess, and the convoy set off again.

The monkey was cut on the arm during the fight, but fortunately it was just a superficial wound.

After a quick bandage, he followed Chen You eagerly, his face full of excitement and admiration.

After all, the way the guards around him were looking at him was different now!

Following someone like Chen You, you can expect to live a life of luxury from now on!

"Brother Chen!"

At this moment, Xu Changqing walked up to Chen You with a smile, politely cupped his hands and said, "We are truly grateful to Brother Chen for turning the tide just now. If it weren't for your help, we would probably be dead here today. We are deeply grateful for your life-saving grace! I, Xu Changqing, owe you a great favor."

It's said that I owe a favor, but actually I'm using this favor to build bridges for future contact!

Chen You casually returned the greeting and said indifferently, "Young Master Xu, you're too kind. I'm just doing my job by taking their money."

Xu Changqing's eyes darted around, and he continued, "Brother Chen, with your superb skills, it's a waste for you to stay in such a small place. Would you be interested in joining our Great Saber Sect? If you're willing to come, you're guaranteed at least a steward position, and you'll certainly have access to plenty of resources."

Chen You politely declined in a calm tone, saying, "Young Master Xu is too kind. I am used to a carefree lifestyle and have no plans to join a sect at the moment."

Chen You had learned about the Great Sword Sect.

Their influence is roughly the same as that of the Luo family.

That would definitely be worse than staying with the Luo family.

After all, Luo Haitang can provide a lot of desire points.

Seeing this, Xu Changqing's eyes flashed with regret. He didn't want to persuade her any further, so he exchanged a few pleasantries and then took his leave.

No sooner had he left than Zhou Yunfei approached, his face beaming with smiles: "Brother Chen!"

Chen You looked at him and cut to the chase: "Young Master Zhou, are you also here to recruit me?"

Zhou Yunfei was taken aback, then burst into laughter, "No, no, no, Brother Chen, with your formidable strength, those who want to hire you will be racking their brains. My Zhou family is just a small, insignificant family; we can't compare to the wealth and power of the Luo family!"

He blinked, a curious smile on his face, and asked, "I'm just curious, how old are you this year, Brother Chen?"

"I'm 19," Chen You replied.

"What? Only 19..."

Even though Zhou Yunfei had some guesses, hearing the age still made him gasp in shock.

So young!!

At a mere 19 years old, he has already reached the third rank of Dark Force cultivation!

What will happen in the future?

In that instant, Zhou Yunfei made up his mind.

Even if we can't recruit Chen You, we must at least befriend him!

This person is absolutely not to be offended.

"Hehe, Brother Chen, your talent is truly remarkable. As far as I know, at 19 years old, there are very few who can even reach the late stage of the first rank, let alone the third rank!"

"Not at all, I was just lucky to catch a treasure fish back then, which nourished my blood and qi!" Chen You said modestly.

"Does Brother Chen enjoy fishing?"

"good."

"That's great! As far as I know, there's a river ahead called Qinghe. It's said that there are a lot of jujube fish there, but the river is swift and it's hard to catch them! We're passing by there, so we can try our luck tonight."

Zhou Yunfei's plan was simple: to befriend Chen You.

"Brother Zhou, did you bring a fishing rod?"

Zhou Yunfei laughed heartily, "To be honest, I also really enjoy fishing!! A year and a half ago, I was lucky enough to catch a fourth-grade treasure fish!! I presented it to my father! My father was promoted to the fourth grade because of it."

"I see. It seems Brother Zhou is quite the expert fisherman. A pleasure to meet you!"

"Hahaha……"

Zhou Yunfei opened his folding fan and said smugly, "Brother Chen, I may not be as good as you in martial arts, but when it comes to fishing, I'm definitely not bad!"

"Then I will have to ask you for your guidance when I get back."

"No problem, no problem."

Then, Zhou Yunfei seemed to have opened a floodgate of words and began to tell Chen You the secrets of fishing.

What kind of bait is best, what time to choose for groundbaiting, and fishing rods are not necessarily better the more expensive they are. Each type of fish may require a different fishing rod.

Chen You listened with rapt attention.

It has to be said that Zhou Yunfei does have something going on in his head.

…………

…………

Two days later, they finally arrived at Qinghe, which Zhou Yunfei had mentioned.

A vast river stretched out between heaven and earth like a giant dragon, its surface hundreds of feet wide, with turbulent waves rolling forward, its current extremely rapid, emitting a thunderous roar.

Faced with the magnificent Qinghe River, which is rich in countless rare aquatic products, not only Zhou Yunfei, but also Xu Changqing and Bai Lao were very tempted and planned to try their luck here and experience the fun of fishing.

Then, everyone took out the fishing rods they had prepared from their luggage.

Chen You slowly pulled out his Han Ding fishing rod from the horse sack.

"Brother Chen, your fishing rod is quite nice." Zhao Zi walked over with a smile, holding a finely crafted fishing rod in her hand.

Chen You casually replied, "This was a gift from one of my senior brothers."

"Oh?" Zhao Zi was slightly surprised, clearly not expecting someone to be so generous.

At this moment, Old Bai strode over and said with a smile, "Let's set up camp here by the river today. It's a rare opportunity to come all this way, so I'm planning to fish here for a while."

After two days of rest, Old Bai's arm, which was originally severely injured and broken, has almost completely recovered.

Although a hideous scar remains at the wound site, and he cannot exert any force for the time being, the fact that he has recovered so quickly is a testament to the potency of the medicine.

Afterwards, Zhao Zi instructed everyone to set up camp here.

As for Xu Changqing, Shen Yunfei, and others, they went to the riverbank with Zhao Zi to prepare bait for fishing.

"Find information on making money nearby."

Chen You thought to himself.
