However, Lu Zheng did not immediately go to the Netherworld, because he had just dealt with Bai Yuqing, and according to Xin Zhanting, it was currently a time of heightened alert around Yelan Mountain and the Chaotic Corpse Pool.
Better to wait until everyone returns to their usual routine before sneaking in for a look.
...
"Not bad, not bad, youâve already completed fifteen techniques. Keep pushing, and soon youâll be able to finish all eighteen actions."
"Then I can achieve Qi Sensitivity?"
"Not necessarily." Lu Zheng shook his head, "Normally, one needs continuous practice to accumulate and enhance the Qi and Blood within their body, to see if a quantitative change can lead to a qualitative change, and condense Martial Artistâs Blood Qi inside."
"What about me?" Lin Wan moved her small hand slightly.
"Cough, cough, of course, with you continually drinking the Reishi Mushroom Wine I gave you, your chances are much better than others."
Lin Wan nodded contentedly, her heart filled with anticipation.
Actually, Lu Zheng was also quite looking forward to Lin Wan cultivating Blood Qi. In modern society, what would happen if a police officer trained as a Martial Artist cultivates Blood Qi?
"Once you cultivate Martial Artistâs Blood Qi, Iâll give you a gift." Lu Zheng said with a smile.
"What gift?"
"Itâs a secret." Lu Zheng chuckled, "But it will definitely exceed your imagination."
Lin Wan couldnât help but roll her eyes at Lu Zheng, doubtingly said, "Exceed my imagination? Are you planning to give me a Star Destroyer or a Creation Jade Disc?"
Lu Zheng stumbled, "Donât be like that... Your husband is just an ordinary homebody without such capabilities."
"Tsk tsk! Youâre still claiming to be a homebody? The bar for homebodies must be pretty high then."
Lin Wan smiled sweetly and took Lu Zhengâs arm, "Iâve been drinking the Reishi Mushroom Wine continuously and already feel my Qi and Blood is brimming. Once I finish practicing the âEighteen Mountain-Carrying Techniques,â I estimate Iâll naturally cultivate Blood Qi."
"Oh, really?"
Lu Zheng and Lin Wan locked arms while strolling down the street, and upon hearing Lin Wanâs words, he immediately extended a stream of True Qi into her body for a spin.
Lu Zhengâs eyes flashed; the effect of the Stalactite Essence was beyond his expectations. Once Lin Wan finishes the eighteen techniques, her Qi and Blood can circulate through the Great Circulation in her body, presumably leading to natural cultivation.
"Impressive!" Lu Zheng gave a thumbs up.
"Hehe... Honestly, did you add something extra to the Reishi Mushroom Wine you sent me this time?"
"Smart!" Lu Zheng gave another thumbs up.
"Enough!" Lin Wan tightened her grip, "I feel like youâre mocking me!"
"Absolutely not!" Lu Zheng shook his head hastily, then changed the subject, "By the way, do you remember the owner of the Italian Restaurant, Sanders?"
"I remember, whatâs up, oh right, the summer wine party?" Lin Wan reacted.
"Yes." Lu Zheng nodded, "Heâs hosting a wine party at the restaurant this weekend and invited us, are you free?"
"Sure." Lin Wan nodded, "We havenât been busy lately, as long as..."
Lu Zheng immediately covered Lin Wanâs mouth, "Alright, no need to say the rest, I know, Iâll reply to him later, letâs go together."
Lin Wan slapped Lu Zhengâs hand, "Youâre an adult, still superstitious."
Lu Zheng, "Hehe..."
"Bang!"
A loud crash.
"Car crash! Car crash!"
"The car flipped!"
Lu Zheng and Lin Wan turned towards the sound and saw a white car overturned not far away on the sidewalk, with people scattered backward.
"How did it flip over?" Lu Zheng was quite surprised.
"Someoneâs hurt!"
"How did it end up here?"
"Quick, quick, quick! Rescue!"
Lu Zheng and Lin Wan immediately ran over, just in time to hear screams coming from inside the car.
"Iâm a police officer!" Lin Wan shouted as she and Lu Zheng squeezed into the crowd.
Lu Zheng looked around and noticed a bent fire hydrant on the sidewalk.
Obviously, the car drove onto the sidewalk, hit the curbside hydrant, and due to excessive speed and sudden stop, flipped over.
At this time, a crowd had already gathered around, with several people trying to open the car door for rescue. Some on the periphery were recording with their phones, and many others were staying far back.
"Quick, open the door!"
A man tried hard but couldnât open it, "The doorâs warped from the collision, canât open it!"
"No way, all four doors canât be opened, the roofâs deformed, everythingâs jammed!"
"Help! Help!"
"My leg! My legâs stuck!"
"Should we flip the car upright first?" Someone suggested.
"Everyone together!"
"Donât!"
Lin Wan hurriedly shouted, "The carâs already upside down, weâre unclear about the injuries inside, flipping the car with such noise might cause secondary injury."
"So what do we do?"
"Call the police! Get an ambulance!"
Lin Wan approached the car, grabbed the door handle, and exerted force.
"I just tried, itâs stuck... Whoa!"
"Snap! Snap! Creakâ"
Then everyone watched as Lin Wan gradually pulled open the deformed car door.
Lin Wan, one hand braced against the car, the other pulling the door, clenched her teeth, exerting her strength.
"Creak! Bang!"
With the last gap opened, the entire car door detached from the car.
This happened because the door was deformed, and the connection point between the door and the car had already snapped, so when Lin Wan pulled the door open, she simultaneously removed it.
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
A chorus of exclamations erupted around.
Lu Zheng: (°ăŒÂ°ă)
Werenât you supposed to hide your strength too?
Alright, the thing I was looking forward to, Iâve seen it in advance...
Looking at the deformed car door in hand, and hearing the gasps around, Lin Wan finally realized with a guilty glance at Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng blinked, shrugged, expressing helplessness.
Lin Wanâs face turned bitter, but at this point, she couldnât abandon her efforts, so she wiped the sweat from her forehead, crawled into the car, and helped out the passenger in the front seat.
There were only two people in the car; the front-seat passenger seemed fine and was easily pulled out by Lin Wan.
It looked like the more severely injured was the driver, who was still groaning, with his leg stuck by the steering wheel.
Lin Wan checked, and it was tightly stuck; as she was considering how to handle it, the sound of fire alarms came from afar, drawing closer.
"Firefighters are here!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan breathed a sigh of relief and exited the car.
...
Seeing the fire and ambulance trucks arrive, Lin Wan grabbed Lu Zheng and ran.
"Why are we running?" Lu Zheng teased, "Arenât you going to explain what happened before?"
"Youâre awful!" Lin Wan slapped Lu Zheng, angrily said, "If Iâm pushed too hard, you wonât escape either!"
"Thatâs troublesome, there are quite a few people filming the scene!"
Lin Wanâs face soured, "What to do then?"
"Whatâs wrong with having great strength, is it illegal?" Lu Zheng feigned surprise and said, "Even Daoist Chen can scale walls, isnât strength just a scientific pursuit from practicing Martial Arts?"
Lin Wan: â_â
