“That means your skills are still lacking!”
“Little brat, I advise you to let me go, or the power behind me won’t let you off!”
Chen Jiuyang’s eyes turned cold. He lunged forward and smashed the old man’s hands and mouth, ensuring he could no longer move. After thoroughly searching the old man, he handed him over to Ji Lengyue and Min Weicai.
Chen Jiuyang instructed, “This is the murderer. You can take him back for interrogation, but absolutely do not mention my name.”
Min Weicai asked, “Why? Dr. Chen, with your abilities, you could completely become a special consultant for our Six Doors.”
Chen Jiuyang ignored him.
Only Ji Lengyue understood. She nodded, “I know what to do. I will tell the higher-ups that the murderer was caught by me and Constable Min. As for the process of the capture, I’ll discuss it with him later and we’ll make up a story.”
Currently, Chen Jiuyang was in a legal dispute with the Wang family. The Wang family was powerful. Although Chen Jiuyang was capable, at this stage, he wanted to preserve and hide his methods as much as possible. This would give his father a better chance of overturning the case.
Chen Jiuyang said, “Please inform the Qiu family before taking this person back to the Six Doors.”
The lovely girl Qiu Yihan shouldn’t suffer injustice for no reason.
Ji Lengyue called to inform the Qiu family. After explaining the situation, Qiu Hongtu’s face was grim, and he remained silent.
The woman who had been scolding Qiu Yihan all day apologized to her, “Yihan, it’s Auntie’s fault for misunderstanding you.”
Qiu Yihan shook her head and said it was nothing. Then she walked up to Chen Jiuyang, “Dr. Chen, thank you. If it weren’t for you, I thought I had brought misfortune to someone again.”
Chen Jiuyang explained, “Miss Qiu, let me tell you the truth.”
“You don’t bring misfortune to people. Instead, when someone with malicious intent approaches you, they encounter ominous events.”
“This is a form of protection for you.”
Qiu Yihan’s small mouth parted, her eyes sparkling, “So that’s how it is! No wonder my grandfather and father were fine, but some people met with trouble.”
Immediately, Qiu Yihan pouted and looked at Chen Jiuyang pleadingly, “Dr. Chen, do you know how to break this protective measure on me? I don’t want to be called a jinx anymore.”
Chen Jiuyang shook his head. Even if he knew, he wouldn’t tell Qiu Yihan. “Miss Qiu, I have other matters to attend to. We’ll meet again if there’s a chance.”
After leaving Fengcheng Medical College, Chen Jiuyang and Yao Zixuan returned to Ziyang County.
Chen Jiuyang asked Yao Zixuan to go home first, as he still had some matters to handle.
Deng Zun had already led all his followers to relocate to Ziyang County and was currently practicing in the park where Chen Jiuyang usually trained. Seeing Chen Jiuyang approach, he couldn’t help but ask,
“Young Master Chen, my cultivation speed is too slow. I’ve been in the Yellow Realm for over ten years, and I’ve only barely reached the middle stage. I don’t know how long it will take to break through to the late stage.”
Chen Jiuyang replied, “It’s because you lack a breathing technique.”
“The Yellow Realm is about cultivating one’s Qi to fill the entire body with true Qi. Your blood is abundant, but without a breathing technique, your cultivation progress in the Yellow Realm is very slow.”
Deng Zun sighed, “Young Master Chen, breathing techniques are incredibly difficult to obtain. I only started practicing martial arts by chance, and breaking through to the Yellow Realm was pure luck.”
Chen Jiuyang thought for a moment and said, “Since you have relocated to Ziyang County and have shown initial loyalty, as a reward, I will teach you a breathing technique that can accelerate your cultivation in the Yellow Realm.”
Chen Jiuyang then selected a decent breathing technique from his inherited memories and passed it to Deng Zun.
After receiving the cultivation method, Deng Zun immediately knelt on one knee, his head bowed to the ground, “Thank you, Young Master Chen!”
Techniques should not be easily imparted. Deng Zun had been practicing martial arts for half his life, but due to the lack of a breathing technique, he was stuck in the Yellow Realm. Now, with the breathing technique Chen Jiuyang imparted, he might be able to enter the Profound Realm and change his destiny.
Deng Zun was overjoyed. He began practicing the breathing technique in front of Chen Jiuyang and immediately broke through from the middle stage to the late stage of the Yellow Realm.
Deng Zun did not indulge in the joy of breaking through to the late stage of the Yellow Realm. Instead, his gaze towards Chen Jiuyang was filled with reverence.
Chen Jiuyang had only taught him the breathing technique, and it had already helped him break through a decade-long bottleneck. If he served Chen Jiuyang well in the future, reaching the Profound Realm master level would be within reach!
Chen Jiuyang said, “This breathing technique cannot be casually taught to your disciples. It should only be passed on to those you can truly trust.”
Deng Zun nodded, “I understand, Young Master Chen.”
Chen Jiuyang took Deng Zun to his house and said, “This is my home. You can build a house here and settle down. Your primary task for now is to protect my family.”
“Yes, Young Master Chen.”
After a few instructions, Chen Jiuyang left and headed to the Lin family manor. After treating Lin Buwen’s injuries, he returned home.
At home, his mother, Zhang Xiuzhen, was preparing a red envelope. Chen Jiuyang asked, “Mom, whose event requires you to give a red envelope?”
Zhang Xiuzhen sighed, “The village secretary Huang Liangbo and his nephew died early this morning. Don’t we need to prepare a red envelope to attend the funeral?”
Chen Jiuyang sneered, “Mom, keep the money. We won’t be attending their funeral.”
“They died like this, and it’s letting them off too easily. They got off cheap.”
“Mom, think about it. Not only did their family lend us money at exorbitant interest, but they also hit you. How can they have the nerve to invite us?”
People die for wealth, and birds die for food. That old village secretary, for the sake of money, would rather sacrifice his son and nephew than restore his sister Chen Yating’s college entrance examination scores.
And they still had the audacity to ask their family for a red envelope to attend the funeral? Chen Jiuyang considered it kind that he hadn’t sent off the old village secretary Huang himself.
“Alright, alright.” Zhang Xiuzhen said, “Since Jiuyang, you say so, then Mom won’t go to the Huang family’s funeral.”
“Jiuyang, Yating is going to university tomorrow. Mom has to cook for the workers at the construction site and can’t go. You take Yating to school tomorrow.”
Chen Jiuyang replied, “Okay, I’ll take Yating to register for university tomorrow.”
Since Huang Liangbo and the others were dead, he was too lazy to bother with the matter of his sister with the old village secretary Huang.
In the evening, a large truckload of medicinal herbs was delivered to their doorstep.
Chen Jiuyang was somewhat surprised, “Zixuan, the medicinal herbs arrived so quickly this time.”
Yao Zixuan replied, “Our Yao family is a major customer. This time, we ordered eighty million worth of medicinal herbs. Of course, they’d deliver quickly! Jiuyang, the glass-type jade you found last time was valued at one hundred million by Grandpa. This time, along with the previous medicinal herbs, it totals eighty-eight million.”
“You still have a balance of twelve million with us. Hehe, the house you want to build will cost thirty million. Grandpa said he’ll advance the money for the house construction for you.”
Chen Jiuyang felt a bit embarrassed. “What about your dad’s plan to go to Yunxi Province to gamble on stones?”
Yao Zixuan replied, “It still needs some time. My dad hasn’t informed me. However, the Wang family has made a move. Jiuyang, the Wang family has hired a Muay Thai master to deal with you.”
“It seems to be the master of that Manla you killed last time, named Chatai.”
“You need to be careful. This person is very famous abroad and is a true expert.”
“They’ve put out word that they will cause trouble for you within three days.”
Chen Jiuyang said calmly, “There’s no need for them to trouble themselves. I will visit the Wang family tomorrow. Zixuan, please help me pass this message to the Wang family.”
“Okay.”
Chen Jiuyang’s eyes were full of confidence and assurance. With such a large batch of medicinal herbs now, his strength would greatly increase tonight, and he wouldn’t fear any Muay Thai master the Wang family hired.
