...

The moonlight is like a wash, as bright as a stream.

A spring breeze blows, scattering the clouds in the sky.

Moonlight like water falls, covering the earth with a silvery veil.

Lin Zheyu sits outside the carriage, trying to find new inspiration.

"This method won't work either."

"My Martial Dao knowledge is too shallow right now. Trying to find a way to halt the Blood Boiling Secret Skill is too difficult."

Lin Zheyu tries another inspiration and shakes his head helplessly.

More than two months have passed, and he still hasn't made much progress.

Lin Zheyu is currently focusing mainly on Qi Blood, using his far superior Qi Blood and physical control abilities to achieve the aim of halting the Blood Boiling Secret Skill.

But once the Blood Boiling Secret Skill starts operating, it is mainly controlled by the acupoints all over the body, burning the Essence, Qi, and Spirit to operate spontaneously.

Lin Zheyu's idea was to use a more immense power of Qi Blood to impact the crucial acupoints.

He improved the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, making a weakened version to prevent excessively violent Qi Blood from damaging the acupoints.

But no matter how Lin Zheyu tries, he can't succeed.

If he resorts to brute force, it will only lead to a disastrous outcome of acupoint destruction and death.

"To discover the method to stop the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, more Martial Dao knowledge and cultivation technique knowledge is needed."

"After getting to the Central Plains, I must find ways to earn money. Otherwise, this bit of silver taels is just not enough to buy a few cultivation techniques."

Lin Zheyu muses privately.

After the failure of a new inspiration, he does not continue to try. Such matters cannot be resolved by stubborn persistence.

He sits outside the carriage, begins to operate the Turtle Breath Skill to recover.

While resting, he divides a bit of his attention to keep aware of the external situation. Even with people from Guangxuan Escort Agency protecting him, Lin Zheyu dares not fully relax his guard.

Rustle~~

A gentle breeze blows, rustling the leaves of the mountain forest, creating a rustling sound.

In front and to the right of Lin Zheyu, Lai Chang sits by the fire, scrutinizing Liang Yuhan from afar.

"Damn it, I've been coveting her all along the way. I must find a chance to taste her. Otherwise, I won't be satisfied."

Lai Chang mutters quietly, his eyes full of desire.

Initially, he merely felt pent up and wanted to vent a bit.

But after holding back for so long, it's more about the frustration of not getting what he desires.

If he doesn't get the chance to toy with her, Lai Chang feels he'll be uncomfortable for a while.

If he wants to vent, once in Ruyang City, he can visit a brothel and vent all he wants. There are women with better figures and prettier faces than Liang Yuhan.

"Still thinking about that woman?"

"If you don't get rid of this bad habit, sooner or later you'll die on a woman's belly."

Lai Mao glances at Lai Chang, immediately knowing what the latter is thinking.

In Bafang City, with their Qi Blood Four Transformations strength, as long as they don't provoke those noble families and powerful factions, there shouldn't be any issues.

But this is the Central Plains.

In the Central Plains, Martial Dao flourishes more than in places like Bafang City, such a remote area, and Martial Artists in the Qi Blood Realm won't make much trouble here.

If Lai Chang doesn't shed his old habits, he's likely to trip up here.

"No, of course not."

"Ahead is Ruyang City, and what kind of women aren't there in the city? Why would I fixate on that woman?"

Lai Chang says somewhat sheepishly.

He scans the area, looking at everyone, finally his gaze stops on Lin Zheyu.

"Brother, do you know what martial arts that person is cultivating, why he gets weak every four days?"

Lai Chang says nonchalantly, shifting the subject to avoid Lai Mao's reproach on his womanizing.

"Why bother yourself over what martial arts he's cultivating, don't create unnecessary trouble."

"Our primary aim for coming to the Central Plains this time is to seek the opportunity to break through to the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, avenge ourselves once we breakthrough."

Lai Mao casts a stern glance at him, speaking seriously.

If the opportunity is right, he wouldn't mind giving Lai Chang a hand, letting him vent a bit, to get focused.

But now is clearly not the right time.

"Got it, got it, you're so annoying." Lai Chang says somewhat impatiently.

Two days later.

The sky gradually darkens.

The dusky sunlight casts down, painting the world in gold.

They are already close to Ruyang City, by traveling for another half a day tomorrow, they should arrive in Ruyang City.

Inns appear more frequently along the way, along with taverns and teahouses.

There's even a brothel that was spotted.

Among those who accompanied Guangxuan Escort Agency to the Central Plains, many left independently yesterday, leaving less than twenty people now.

After advancing about a mile, they arrive at a bustling market, and the group halts.

"Friends, about a hundred miles or so west from here is Ruyang City."

"Guangxuan Escort Agency doesn't plan to enter the city, so we can only send you this far. We'll part ways here."

"Best wishes for your bright future."

Cui Yuanliang comes up to Lin Zheyu and the others, smiling as he speaks.

"Thank you!"

Lin Zheyu bows in thanks to Cui Yuanliang.

This journey with Guangxuan Escort Agency was reasonably safe without excessively dangerous encounters.

"Mr. Xi, where do you intend to go next?"

Lin Zheyu looks at the elegant young man and asks with a smile.

Luo Chengwen and Ke Wanyue had left on their own yesterday.

Among the young talents he befriended, only Xi Shixin traveled all the way here.

Xi Shixin, a former prodigy scholar who made it to the imperial examination, has very rich knowledge and insight.

From him, Lin Zheyu learned much about the Central Plains.

"I plan to wander around."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for your hospitality along the way. Farewell until we meet again."

Xi Shixin bows in thanks, smiling as he speaks.

Then he turns, leaving gracefully, clearly not wishing to continue journeying with Lin Zheyu.
