“Then I can’t help you. I’ll sell it to you when I know how to refine it.” Chen Fei waved his hand and turned to leave.

After learning the Light Spirit Pill, Chen Fei would really take it out to sell. After all, it was more valuable. As for the Eternal Floating Pill, even if he did manage to refine it, he wouldn’t sell it.

A man is innocent, but he is guilty of holding a treasure. Chen Fei still did not have enough strength to protect himself.

If he sold it and word got out, it would be very easy for him to be captured and become an alchemist who could only refine medicine.

After leaving the black market, Chen Fei shook off the few small tails behind him.

As Chen Fei sold Qi Rejuvenation Pills in the black market, more and more people followed him. Fortunately, Chen Fei’s movement technique was now pretty accomplished. Ordinary people simply could not keep up with Chen Fei’s pace.

Besides, a mere Qi Rejuvenation Pill wouldn’t draw out any powerful experts.

After making a few more turns in the county, Chen Fei returned to the courtyard of the pill room.

Chen Fei opened his money pouch and looked at the shiny silver inside. He couldn’t help but smile.

Nearly six hundred taels of silver was a huge sum in the eyes of ordinary people. However, Chen Fei saved up this sum of money in a few days.

Alchemy was naturally the greatest contribution, but Chen Fei’s own cultivation and movement technique could not be ignored either. Without power, one would not be able to hold on to the money.

Chen Fei’s goal of making money had always been to continuously grow his own strength. Otherwise, he would be a miser and never know when the money would disappear.

“Interface, simplify Immortal Way!”

“Immortal Way is being simplified. Simplification was successful. Immortal Way → Finger Drumming!”

The simplified version did not disappoint Chen Fei. Chen Fei tapped the table lightly with his finger. In the next moment, the comprehension of Immortal Way appeared in Chen Fei’s mind, and he naturally closed his eyes.

This was the most profound and exquisite sword technique that Chen Fei had ever come into contact with. Now that he was being shown the way, it caused Chen Fei to involuntarily immerse himself in it.

As his fingers tapped unconsciously, the experience points of Immortal Way on the interface kept increasing. Chen Fei’s face revealed a smile. This was the joy of cultivating.

Early the next morning, Chen Fei headed to the Zhang Family Estate in high spirits.

[Cultivation Method: Immortal Way (Master 201/1000)]

In just one night, Immortal Way had already reached the Master level. This level of sword technique could already be used in actual combat. Last night, if it weren’t for the profoundness of the sword technique that held Chen Fei’s undivided attention, causing him to forget about drumming his fingers, his proficiency would’ve been even higher now.

However, Chen Fei was already very satisfied in his heart. In a few days, Immortal Way would probably reach Great Completion. At that time, no one in the Body Tempering Realm in Pingyin County would be Chen Fei’s match.

This was the sword technique of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect. Although it was only one of the moves, its profoundness far surpassed that of the warriors of Pingyin County.

“I reckon if I took the initiative to strike a Bone Tempering realm martial artist with such a sword attack, they wouldn’t be a match for me either! ”

Chen Fei did a quick estimate, comparing what he’d seen from Jian Liang, whom he had met back then, and Sun Shu, whom he had crossed paths with last night. They would indeed be heavily injured if they were careless. If he used Immortal Way a few more times, they might be killed.

It was easy for people to see through the flaws of the move when it was used many times. However, the other party was already heavily injured, so how would they have the time to see the flaws?

Chen Fei felt a little more secure, but this sense of security was far from enough. Chen Fei felt that he still needed to continue working hard.

“Eldest Miss!”

He entered through the small door and walked to the courtyard. Seeing that Zhang Sinan seemed to be thinking about something in the pavilion, Chen Fei called out from the side.

“You’re here. Sit.”

When Zhang Sinan saw Chen Fei, she seemed to know Chen Fei’s purpose for being there. Zhang Sinan’s brows furrowed slightly and said, “Is it for the pill formula of the Light Spirit Pill?”

“Yes, please bestow it upon me, Eldest Miss.” Chen Fei cupped his hands.

“I’m afraid I can’t give you the recipe for the Light Spirit Pill.” Zhang Sinan hesitated for a moment.

“Why? Didn’t we have an agreement before?”

Chen Fei could not help but frown. This was different from what she had said before. It was because of the Light Spirit Pill formula that Chen Fei was chased by Sun Shu last night. Zhang Sinan should know about this.

“There are a few elders who feel that Sun Shu’s matter has not been resolved. Isn’t it too much to give you the pill formula when all you gave us was one sentence?”

Zhang Sinan seemed to know that she was in the wrong, so she explained to Chen Fei nicely.

Chen Fei frowned and did not speak. The Zhang family was venting their anger on him for what happened to Sun Shu. Originally, he thought that the Zhang family was a decent house, but Chen Fei had overestimated them.

“The Zhang family won’t mistreat people. Even if I give you the pill formula for the Light Spirit Pill, you won’t be able to concoct it. Why don’t you exchange it for some other rewards?”

Chen Fei’s silence made Zhang Sinan somewhat dissatisfied, and her voice also became cold.

“I wonder what the reward is?”

Chen Fei didn’t make a scene, nor did he argue because he knew that it was useless.

“Techniques, weapons, you name it. As long as it’s suitable, I can reward you.”

Seeing that Chen Fei did not pester her, Zhang Sinan nodded slightly. This was more like it. In the end, although Chen Fei was not a servant of the Zhang family, he still relied on the Zhang family for a living. He still had to put himself in a proper position.

“I want a sword technique.”

There were no options for cultivation techniques, only moves and sharp weapons. The Zhang family was really tight in this aspect. However, it was normal. After all, they were not even willing to give the pill formula.

Zhang Sinan nodded and called a servant over to give a few instructions. In just a moment, four sword technique manuals were placed in front of Chen Fei.

“These secret manuals are not bad. Choose one.”

“Can I through each one?” Chen Fei thought for a moment and said.

“Sure.” Zhang Sinan nodded in agreement.

Chen Fei picked up the first book, Zephyr Sword, and flipped through it.

Who knew if it was because Chen Fei had comprehended Immortal Way? But right at that moment, as Chen Fei looked at the Zephyr Sword, he understood the sword technique immediately.

In just a quarter of an hour, Chen Fei had finished reading the Zephyr Sword. Chen Fei subconsciously looked at the interface, and his eyes could not help but light up.

[Cultivation Technique: Zephyr Sword (Unlearned)]

“I can get take all three books for nothing?”

Chen Fei couldn’t help but think of this sentence. Chen Fei raised his head and glanced at Zhang Sinan and realized that her attention was not on him at all. The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly.

Putting down the secret manual in his hand, Chen Fei flipped through the second sword technique.

Fifteen minutes later, Chen Fei put down the secret manual and picked up the third one. After another 15 minutes, Chen Fei finished reading the fourth secret manual.

“Are you done? Which one do you want?”

Seeing Chen Fei put down the secret manual, Zhang Sinan turned around and asked.

Zhang Sinan never thought that Chen Fei could learn four secret manuals in such a short period of time. More than 90% of martial artists could not do this. Cultivation techniques had to be studied carefully. It was even impossible to learn them by self-study. One had to be guided by a master.

Fifteen minutes for a secret manual was only enough for him to roughly browse through the secret manual.

“This one, then.”

Chen Fei picked up one of the books, and Zhang Sinan nodded. Chen Fei cupped his hands and left the Zhang Clan Estate.

On the way, Chen Fei looked at the information on the interface and almost laughed out loud.

[Cultivation Techniques: Zephyr Sword (unlearned), Fire Sword (unlearned), Leaf Pattern Sword (unlearned), Hand Shield Sword (unlearned)]

Although he did not obtain the pill formula for the Light Spirit Pill, he did not lose out.

In fact, it seemed that he had even gotten more than he had bargained for.
