"Did you really hunt such a large snake?"
After dinner,
Su Wanqiu called him over as soon as her younger sister returned to her room.
Chen Xuan sighed in his heart,
His sister-in-law was truly different.
He was just trying to tease Su Yun a little earlier.
Although it was the truth, for an ordinary person, a snake several meters long is too astonishing to believe,
However,
Su Wanqiu believed him.
"Really!"
Chen Xuan nodded slightly.
The next moment,
Su Wanqiuâs face turned pale instantly.
A snake several meters long, just thinking about it, she felt scared.
Let alone,
having to kill it.
Her heart felt as if it had dropped to the ground.
"Chen Familyâs ancestors bless us, itâs lucky you werenât harmed, itâs too dangerous, how could you have such courage, a snake several meters long, my god!"
At this moment,
Su Wanqiu was already speaking incoherently, feeling somewhat shocked.
Seeing this,
Chen Xuan immediately walked over, hugged her directly, gently patted her back, continuously comforting her, "Itâs okay, sister-in-law, my current strength is such that that big snake just looked large, killing it was just a matter of a few arrows, superficial but useless, nothing to fear, donât worry, donât worry now!"
Under his comforting,
After a long time,
Su Wanqiu broke free from his embrace, slightly raised her head, her phoenix eyes staring intently at him, extremely serious, "Brother Xuan, in the future, no matter what you do outside, you must think about YunâEr at home first, sheâs so young, she canât do without you! Our family canât do without you either!"
"Do you even realize, Liu Yue is dead, how pitiful are the orphan and widow left behind, if it werenât for our family giving some meat, in this situation, they really could starve to death!"
"If something happens to you, our Chen Family will be no more either!"
.....
Seeing her getting more and more emotional,
Chen Xuan had no choice but to interrupt her, assuring, "Donât worry, sister-in-law, Iâm not a child, I wonât be reckless, and, do you really think Iâm not afraid of death! Rest assured!"
"Are you certain?"
"Of course!"
"You promise!"
"I promise!"
.....
Finally, after a number of assurances from Chen Xuan, Su Wanqiu finally let him off.
"Sigh!"
He sighed.
If he had known earlier, he wouldnât have said it.
Sometimes, not saying anything is actually better for them.
At least,
they donât have to worry about him anymore.
....
Deep into the night.
After taking care of matters, and waiting for Su Yun to fall asleep, Chen Xuan went to the kitchen.
He took out the fist-sized snakeâs gall.
The reason for coming here, avoiding the two women, was to avoid them asking all sorts of questions, such a hassle!
"The big black snake was so powerful, its gall should be the essence, it shouldnât be too bad!"
Weighing it in his hand,
It was no less than a pound.
Chen Xuan didnât hesitate.
Directly,
he bit down on it.
To his surprise,
the gall had no hint of a fishy smell, instead, it had a slightly sweet flavor,
With a gentle bite,
the gall melted in his mouth, reminiscent of Blue Starâs jelly texture.
The fist-sized snakeâs gall,
was finished in just a few bites.
"Nothing unusual!"
Chen Xuan wiped his mouth with his sleeve, slightly disappointed.
Wasnât it said that snake gall is very nourishing, especially a big black snakeâs?
How come after eating it,
there was no sensation at all,
He knew,
as a Seventh-Grade Martial Artist, he was very sensitive to his bodyâs sensations.
However,
after eating the gall, aside from a cool sensation, there wasnât any other feeling.
But,
the next moment,
he was proven wrong.
At the Dantian,
a boiling hot stream of energy appeared.
And,
unlike the warm flow from system upgraded cultivation techniques, this hot stream was extremely volatile, impacting all over the Dantian, then starting to attack acupoints throughout the body from the Dantian as the center.
At this moment,
Chen Xuanâs face was flushed red, his whole body like being bitten by thousands of ants.
However,
he clenched his teeth tightly, not making a sound,
afraid of attracting the attention of the two women in the house.
"It hurts!"
"Damn it!"
"Hurts like hell!"
.....
Chen Xuan was madly cursing in his heart, every curse he could think of came out.
However,
the hot stream had a growing tendency.
"No, I canât go on like this! If it continues, Iâll be in excruciating pain!"
"Bang!"
He plopped onto the ground.
Started running the Nine Revolutions Secret Techniqueâs cultivation route.
Tried to control the hot stream.
Once, failed!
Twice, failed!
.....
After endless attempts, finally, the out-of-control hot stream gradually became controlled.
No longer in a frenzied, uncontrolled state.
It became docile.
Phew~~~
At this moment,
Chen Xuan felt like he was saved from drowning.
Gradually,
the pain completely disappeared, even replaced with a soothing warm feeling.
The acupoints previously damaged by the hot stream began to repair gradually.
He felt every pore relaxed, more and more comfortable!
"Mmm~~~"
Comfortable, Chen Xuan let out a hum.
Not knowing how long had passed,
Murran opened his eyes.
Instantly,
his eyes gleamed brightly!
Hmm?
Chen Xuan slightly frowned,
feeling discomfort all over.
The next moment,
he noticed a grey layer on his hands.
With a slight movement of his hand,
the grey layer peeled off like dust from the skin.
Revealing a jade-like complexion.
"Is this me?"
In disbelief, he looked at his hands,
White, smooth!
He hurriedly took off his shirt,
The grey layer scattered off in the same way.
The entire body, just like the hands,
crystal clear!
The next second, he approached the water basin, using the dim kerosene lampâs light, looking at his reflection in the water.
Yesterday he was still a dark-skinned guy,
now he was as fair as a delicate young man!
This kind of looks, in his past life in a club, wouldnât the rich women be tempted to drool!
However,
this wasnât the time to admire his beautiful face.
He sensed an unusual feeling all over his body.
"System!"
The panel appeared in front of him.
[Name: Chen Xuan]
[Lifespan: 18/150]
[Realm: Sixth Grade (Refining Acupoints)]
[Cultivation Technique: Nine Revolutions Secret Technique (Upper Part) (Mastered) (688/1000), Health Preservation Technique (Proficient)]
[Skills: Advanced Archery (Mastered), Advanced Tracking Technique (Mastered), Bedroom Arts (Mastered), Absorbing Palm (Not Initiated)]
[Rank: Seventh Grade]
[Progress: 0/5 Skill Points]
"Sixth Grade!"
It really is Sixth Grade!
A single big black snakeâs gall raised him to the Sixth Grade!
Just ten days, and the skill points would be enough to reach the peak realm of the Nine Revolutions Secret Technique!
This means, in just about ten days, Iâll have enough skill points to reach the consummate stage of the Nine Revolutions Secret Technique!
He couldnât help but be overjoyed,
If it wasnât for being at home with two women, he really wanted to laugh heartily now.
"This is not the time to admire my handsome face across the generations."
He felt a different sensation throughout his body.
Suddenly,
There was a dim silver glow emanating from the acupoints all over his body.
Curiously checking,
This was... what is it?
