Professor Chen, Shirley Yang, and the others felt tired after the excitement of discovering the giant pupil stone statue subsided.
Everyone fell asleep.
Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were responsible for keeping watch.
Chen Cang sat cross-legged on the ground and began to cultivate.
He wanted to break through to Rank-2 martial artist.
Unfortunately, it was not that easy to break through.
Chen Cang's skin had already been honed to perfection. Genuine Qi was constantly flowing under the skin like steel.
If he wanted to break through to the Second Stage Realm…
Then, he needed to infuse his zhenqi into his flesh and blood.
Between the skin and flesh, there was a thin membrane that blocked the path of the Genuine Qi.
Therefore, Chen Cang needed to break through that layer of membrane and let his Genuine Qi enter a wider world.
This was not a simple matter.
The membrane looked thin, but it was unusually strong.
Chen Cang needed to find a point and then use his zhenqi to continuously attack. After a long period of ink-wash martial arts, he would sooner or later be able to break through this thin membrane.
However, this would take a long time.
Chen Cang hoped that he would be able to reach Rank-2 in a short period of time.
He held the bead in his hand. The gentle energy entered his body and transformed into true qi. Under Chen Cang's control, it continuously charged toward a point.
Every time he charged, Chen Cang could feel a piercing pain in his flesh and blood. It was as if someone was holding a drill and drilling into his body.
After cultivating for about two hours,
Chen Cang was already sweating profusely.
He felt that his spirit had already become weak.
He had no choice but to stop cultivating.
"Sigh, even if I have enough energy, I'll still need more than ten days to break through to Rank-2.”
"This speed is really too slow!”
If his father knew about this…
His father must have kicked him in the face.
How shameless!
He could break through the barrier from Rank-1 to Rank-2 in ten days.
This was already super fast, alright?
Thinking back to when Chen Zhongshu had broken through, he had spent two to three years of hard work, constantly using his zhenqi to grind it down, before finally breaking through this barrier.
Now, he only needed ten days, and he was still complaining about this and that…
"Forget it, haste makes waste!"
"We can only take it slow now!"
He opened his eyes. Not far away, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were chatting.
Chen Cang thought for a moment and leaned over.
"Hey, Brother Chen, you haven't slept yet?”Hu Bayi laughed.
"You can't sleep. If you're tired, you can go to sleep. I'll keep watch for you.”
"Hey, Brother Chen, how can this be?”
Fatty Wang also said," Brother Chen, you are all intellectual people. Old Hu and I are rough people. We only need to sleep for half a night."”
"There's no need to be so particular. Fatty, are you mocking me?”Chen Cang scolded with a smile.
The three of them sat beside the cave entrance, listening to the mournful and angry howling of the sandstorm outside, and began to chat with each other.
"Hey, Brother Chen, do you think we can find the Ancient City of Jingjue?”
"This place is not far from the Ancient City of Jingjue. It shouldn't be a problem to find it.”
"Doesn't that mean that Old Hu and I are about to get our twenty thousand dollars?”
Fatty Wang said happily.
"Twenty thousand dollars isn't that easy to get. Jingjue Ancient City is very dangerous.”Chen Cang shook his head.
"It's okay. We have a strong character. No matter what kind of ghosts and monsters they are, they have to obediently run away with their tails between their legs in front of me!”
Chen Cang sighed, not knowing what to say.
Inside Jingjue Ancient City, there was the Ghost Cave Curse. This curse could only be broken by the Dust Pearl.
If it wasn't for the system telling him to enter Jingjue Ancient City to find the secret of the Azure Dragon Bloodline, he wouldn't even want to go in.
Hu Bayi and Fatty didn't need to go in.
It was not worth it for that ten thousand dollars!
However, Chen Cang also understood that even if he told Old Hu and the others not to go in, they might not listen to him.
"Hey, Brother Chen, I really think that the foreign girl's motive for coming to Jingjue Ancient City is not simple.”
"Fatty!" Old Hu frowned.
"Hey, Old Hu, I wasn't wrong. She kept saying that she came to Jingjue Ancient City to find her father, but after she came out of Kunlun Glacier, she basically didn't say anything.”
Suddenly, Fatty felt a chill on his back.
"Hey, why do I feel a little cold?”
Hu Bayi and Chen Cang hid their smiles and looked behind him.
"Old Hu, what's wrong?" Fatty Wang was startled.”
Hu Bayi winked at him, signaling him to look behind him.
Fatty Wang turned around and saw Shirley Yang standing behind him, looking at him calmly.
Fatty Wang was shocked and couldn't help but stand up.
"You, when did you come?"
"While you were talking, I was already here.”
" Then, then you heard it all…" Fatty Wang stuttered. It was really awkward to speak ill of others behind their backs and be arrested on the spot.
"I heard you. What's wrong?"
Shirley Yang said calmly.
Fatty Wang was a little conflicted." You…you won't deduct our wages, right?"”
Anyway, he had been discovered.
Do whatever you want!
As long as his salary wasn't deducted, everything was negotiable!
Chen Cang smiled and stood up."Fatty, I believe Miss Yang. She doesn't have any bad intentions!”
"Tsk! Who knows!"
Fatty Wang pouted slightly and muttered.
Shirley Yang sat down and warmed herself by the bonfire. Her face was very calm, as if she did not care about Fatty's words at all.
"Mr. Hu, if I'm not wrong, your ancestor isn't a Feng Shui master, right?”
Hu Bayi was stunned.
"What do you mean?"
Shirley Yang looked at Fatty Wang again." Mr. Wang, your background isn't simple, right?”
Hu Bayi and Fatty frowned, not knowing what she meant.
Only Chen Cang found it funny. Shirley Yang should have seen through their identities long ago.
" Since the first time I saw you, I noticed that you have a very strong smell of dirt. In this world, there is only one kind of person who has this smell of dirt…"
Shirley Yang smiled faintly." Mr. Hu, Mr. Wang, I don't need to tell you the answer, right? Should I tell Professor Chen and the others about this?”
Fatty Wang widened his eyes in disbelief.
He did not expect that his and Old Hu's identities would be seen through at a glance.
"Are you threatening us?"
Shirley Yang ignored him and pointed at the golden amulet on Hu Bayi's neck.
"And the thing on your neck has also exposed your identity!”
"Am I right?"
" Two gold-looting lieutenants?!"
