The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 694 Training and Temptation

The next morning, after a good sleep, Zhao Chen washed up and came to the martial arts field of Haifeng Tower in high spirits to start morning exercises.

Although he has reached the "Gangsha" stage and no longer needs to practice "dynamic exercises" to strengthen his body, he still needs to practice the use of spells and the connection of various techniques.

As Haifenglou is a high-end restaurant opened by the Zheng family, there are naturally restrictions on the martial arts arena, which allows Zhao Chen to move freely.

However, as soon as he stepped into the martial arts arena, he saw Yan Hongxia, Ning Meng, and Ning Meng's master, Master Mo Qiu, were all there, and the former was guiding the latter two in their practice.

It is worth mentioning that after several months of hard work, Mo Qiu finally collected enough classics containing the "Tao texts", and thus changed his practice method again, from the original "Yinshan Taoist Book" to the magical method "Sanfen Guiyuan Secret Book" exchanged from the "Master".

This is a secret book that combines the two magical skills of "Three-Part Return to Origin Secret Teachings" of Chenlu Beppu and "Guiyuan Sword Canon" of Guiyuan Sword School. It has basically broken away from the framework of the Tianmo Sect, so there is no need to worry about being caught up in the cause and effect of big shots when practicing this skill.

With the right skills and having eaten "dragon meat" so many times, Mo Qiu's cultivation has made great progress in the past month or so. He has made breakthroughs one after another and now has opened eight orifices. He can be considered a master in the "refining orifice" realm.

Unfortunately, her achievements were not enough in front of Yan Hongxia and her own apprentice, not to mention Zhao Chen...so the little pride she had just felt disappeared after arriving at Haifeng Tower.

When the three female warriors saw Zhao Chen coming, they simply greeted him and continued their own training.

Zhao Chen did not disturb them, but concentrated on studying how to combine his innate magic spells with his flying sword and musket to more effectively deal with various enemies.

"In addition, I have to practice the 'Falling Star Divine Sword Scripture' I got from Lu Chunyang... After being promoted to 'Gangsha', the other sword techniques I have, whether it is the 'Sun Divine Sword Scripture' or those 'Sword Techniques' at the level of refining orifices, are actually a bit outdated. I was able to defeat the enemy with one move before, but it was only because of the mysteriousness of my skills and the powerful power of the additional states.

“As for the swordsmanship itself, it’s pretty average.

"The Li family's sword art is only okay, but under the premise that they cannot use the 'Yellow Emperor's Sword' for the time being, they can bully ordinary prominent families and powerful people, but they are not good enough to fight against the children of aristocratic families, the children of the upper clans, or even the disciples of the big sects and prominent families with good heritage.

"And this 'Falling Star Divine Sword Scripture' originated from the 'Lichen Sword Palace''s Shengxuan Zhenjun. Even if it was only completed by the Zhenjun who witnessed the sword beheading the 'Great Evil' based on memory, it is still considered the top sword method in the world."

As his thoughts turned, Zhao Chen took out a magic sword and then devoted himself to practicing.

At the same time, the three female warriors on the other side of the martial arts arena began to become absent-minded, and their attention unconsciously shifted to Zhao Chen.

Because Zhao Chen, who was practicing spells and sword techniques at this time, had his "magic power" surge, the characteristics of the "Spiritual Qi of the Five Immortals" were no longer deliberately suppressed. Coupled with the influence of the true energy of the "Empress of Xiliang" that had not completely dissipated, the attraction was simply beyond words!
Yan Hongxia even felt her heartbeat quicken by more than a beat, and her mind unconsciously thought of the scene when she was soaking in the "Rijing Baoquan" yesterday...

She quickly looked away, controlling herself to let go of those thoughts, so as not to lose her dignity as a superior in front of Ning Meng and Mo Qiu.

But at this moment, she suddenly heard a "gurgling" sound, and turned her head to look, and found that Ning Meng secretly wiped her saliva, but the sound came from Mo Qiu's throat. It seems that the intensity of the training is still not enough! Yan Hongxia glanced at the master and apprentice with a serious face, then used her "spiritual consciousness" to isolate Zhao Chen's breath, and began to "guide" Ning Meng and Mo Qiu's practice more seriously.

In this way, more than an hour passed, and Zhao Chen, who was immersed in the "Falling Star Sword" and many spells, finally finished his practice with reluctance. At this time, Yan Hongxia and the other two had already left the training ground because they could not bear the "temptation".

There are some things that cannot be resisted by willpower alone.

Zhao Chen had no idea how much trouble he had caused the three female heroes. After returning to his room, taking a shower and having breakfast, he prepared to go to the Xiliang City Road Office again to retrieve the "Youlong Gun" that was commissioned to be recast by "Tian Ding Zhenren".

But at this moment, Ming Xueling and Feng Wuxian returned to Haifeng Tower together.

——After all, Ming Xueling and Feng Wuxian were sucked into the cave in full view of everyone at the battle scene. It was not easy for Zhao Chen to secretly bring them out when he left through the "Black Domain" yesterday, so the two of them stayed in Xiliang City last night.

Feng Wuxian looked a little depressed. After handing the "Starlight Treasure Spring" she had obtained to Zhao Chen, she took the initiative to enter the "Hundred Flowers Book" to rest.

Zhao Chen was a little confused and couldn't help but look at Ming Xueling.

This beautiful and almost flawless humanoid puppet could now understand some of Zhao Chen's simple meanings through his eyes, so he replied: "It's because Shi Tianzong is missing... Lady Feng is Shi Tianzong's good friend, and I'm just a little worried."

"Shi Tianzong is missing?" Zhao Chen asked in surprise. You know, the ancestor of the Sima family is the Shengxuan Zhenjun, and his spiritual power is enough to illuminate every corner of the seven kingdoms of Dongtian. Unless there are people of the same level covering it up, or he was taken away from Dongtian earlier, it is impossible for him not to be discovered.

"Yes, the soul lamp standing in the family ancestral hall is still there, but the person is gone. Even if we ask the master of supernatural powers to calculate, we can't get any results." Ming Xueling nodded slightly, and added, "The Shi family lost the matriarch this time, and also lost the heir who had the most hope of being promoted to the supernatural realm. It's already a mess.

"I didn't return directly last night because I was staying at the Shi family to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation...

"You know, the Shi family and Duan Mingxue's ancestors are actually the same person."

Hearing this, Zhao Chen smiled and responded: "You don't need to explain so much to me. You are an independent 'person', not my 'tool'."

He paused for a moment, then asked, "Does Shi Tianzong have any treasures worth coveting?"

“Then I don’t know… or rather, the Shi family couldn’t figure out what was so special about Shi Tianzong.

"Fortunately, the Shi family still has Aunt Shi. Even if her foundation is destroyed and it is difficult for her to improve, at least her magical powers are real and enough to deter villains." Ming Xueling shook his head slightly, then took out a gun bag from his storage bag and handed it to Zhao Chen, saying, "When I went to the Daoist office to inform Aunt Shi about this matter this morning, I also got the recast 'Youlong Gun' back from 'Father' for you."
