Chapter 4 The beautiful master’s determination makes another breakthrough!
In the blink of an eye, March has passed.
Three months ago, after Lin Ning learned that Zhou Chen had broken through the fifth level of Dou Qi, she was cautious and immediately blocked the news, and decisively changed a group of guards and waiters in the city lord's palace.
These people are basically spies placed by various forces in the city lord's palace.
Lin Ning originally turned a blind eye to these people. As long as they didn't go too far, she didn't bother to care.
But in order to hide the secret of Zhou Chen's breakthrough in cultivation too quickly, she had no choice but to find the reason of "the Douji Pavilion of the City Lord's Mansion was stolen" and kill all these spies without leaving a trace!
Not only that, Lin Ning also repeatedly told her daughter Lin Fei not to mention Zhou Chen to any outsiders, otherwise the engagement would be terminated!
This can be regarded as Lin Fei's grasp.
She has always dreamed of marrying her brother Xiaochen, who is good-looking, talented and well-spoken.
Therefore, Lin Fei, who was not very strict at first, suddenly became tight-lipped.
Now, three months have passed.
The outside world still knows very little about Zhou Chen.
Even people like Linfei's teacher Otto, who are close to the City Lord's Mansion, only know that Zhou Chen is the disciple of City Lord Lin Ning and that he is very good-looking, but they don't know anything about the rest.
Obviously, Lin Ning's meticulous and ruthless operation was quite successful.
Zhou Chen, who has always had a calm temperament, screamed "fuck you!"
It’s really hard not to like such a wise and decisive beautiful Master!
……
……
……
The moonlight poured in from the window, like a stream of light.
In the room, Zhou Chen was naked, sitting cross-legged in the bathtub with his eyes closed.
The tub is filled with water as green as jade.
At this time, Zhou Chen formed seals with his hands and maintained his cultivation state.
As he breathed, the water in the tub gradually turned into cyan airflow.
Qi flowed into the body, and the fighting spirit in Zhou Chen's body gradually became more and more abundant. His pink and jade-carved little face also gradually exuded a warm jade-like light.
As Zhou Chen continued to absorb it, more and more air flowed out of the tub, forming a blue mist that enveloped the entire room.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
As the last wisp of cyan mist slowly dissipated, Zhou Chen's eyelashes began to tremble slightly.
Those eyes as bright as stars also slowly opened.
"A few more days at most will be enough to break through the bottleneck of the seventh level of Dou Qi."
With a chuckle, Zhou Chen felt extremely comfortable.
After only one year of time travel, his cultivation has surpassed most people's more than ten years of hard work.
According to this progress, in as long as one year or as short as half a year, he will be able to break through to the realm of a fighter.
By then, he will not be more than five years old.
In the original plot, the protagonist Xiao Yan, an eleven-year-old breakthrough fighter, became famous throughout the Gama Empire!
Cao Ying, the "enchantress" of the Cao family, one of the five major Danta families, broke through the ranks at the age of seven and became famous throughout Zhongzhou.
This woman is already mentioned in the original plot as the person with the shortest time to break through the Dou Dynasty among the human race, except for the descendants of the Dou Emperor and the Warcraft from the eight ancient tribes.
And his talent is obviously much higher than Cao Ying.
Of course, in addition to his talent and hard work, the foundation-building liquid rewarded by the system also played a small role.
If he hadn't taken a bath with Foundation-Building Spiritual Liquid almost every day, the time to break through as a Fighter would have been postponed for at least another year.
"It's so late? It's time to go to bed."
He raised his head and looked at the silver moon outside the window. The next second, Zhou Chen stood up suddenly, stretched out, and then climbed out of the tub without a care, letting the cold water splash.
Picking up the bath towel that had been placed next to him and wiping his body, Zhou Chen turned around and looked at the foundation-building spiritual liquid in the bathtub that had become lighter in color. He murmured to himself: "It takes less than half of it in three months."
The rewards from the system are indeed substantial."
At the beginning, the system rewarded Zhou Chen with ten foundation-building spiritual liquids.
Zhou Chen originally thought that a portion of Foundation-Building Spiritual Liquid was just a small bottle like the one Xiao Yan sold to Miter Auction House in the original plot.
But the generosity of the system caught him by surprise.
Ten portions of Foundation-Building Spiritual Liquid, actually, to be precise, ten barrels!
Yes, that’s ten barrels!
Each barrel has a net weight of three kilograms.
According to Zhou Chen's estimation, when he breaks through the Dou Zhe, he will only use one and a half barrels at most.
The Foundation-Building Spiritual Liquid can only be used by people below the Fighter level in order to be effective.
Therefore, the remaining eight and a half barrels must either be wasted, or we must find an opportunity to make use of them.
For example, use it for people close to you.
Before, Zhou Chen had been looking for an opportunity to give a bucket of Foundation-Building Spiritual Liquid to that girl Linfei.
This can be regarded as repaying Master's kindness and nurturing his fiancée.
But how to explain the origin of this thing to Lin Ning and her daughter has become a big problem.
Moreover, if people's greed is aroused, something unexpected may happen.
He only has one life, and he will not end up with all kinds of evil consequences just because of his temporary kindness.
Therefore, Zhou Chen struggled for a long time and observed it for a long time.
However, after so many days of investigation, Zhou Chen felt that Master Lin Ning’s outstanding wisdom and extraordinary character would not cause him to turn his back on others just because of some Foundation-Building Spiritual Liquid.
That is something only a fool with low intelligence and shamelessness would do.
Moreover, there is a relationship between a marriage contract and a relationship between a master and a disciple. Even if it is not about trust, it is also about friendship and the future.
Therefore, Zhou Chen planned to wait for a few days and find a suitable opportunity to give Lin Fei a bucket of foundation-building spiritual liquid.
The rest of the foundation-building spiritual liquid is naturally stored first.
After all, this thing is a rare medicinal liquid originally created by Master Yao, and it can be used to obtain greater benefits.
As for selling it for cash and exchanging it for trivial gold coins? That would be too wasteful.
With a rich woman like Master, Zhou Chen is not short of money.
"I don't want to think about it anymore, go to bed."
Zhou Chen, who had been thinking about it for a long time, first put the tub into the system space with a wave of his hand.
Then, he got on the bed in three steps and lay down comfortably.
It’s easy to have random thoughts when you’re lying down.
For example, Zhou Chen now suddenly remembered the original protagonist of this world, Xiao Yan.
I don’t know how this lucky brother is doing.
"Xiao Yan's current age should not be old."
Zhou Chen murmured to himself, and immediately started using his clever little brain, preparing to calculate Xiao Yan's current exact age.
Calculating Xiao Yan's age is actually very simple, that is, using Lin Fei as the time coordinate.
As a female supporting character who appeared in the original work of Dou Po, Lin Fei once met Xiao Yan in the alchemist branch of Black Rock City who came to assess the alchemist level.
At that time, she was in her early twenties.
At that time, Xiao Yan was actually seventeen and a half years old. When he registered, he lied about being nineteen.
In other words, the age difference between Lin Fei and Xiao Yan is between two and a half to three and a half years.
Lin Fei's current age is probably more than seven years old, so it is estimated that Xiao Yan's current age should be about four years old.
Of course, this estimate may be slightly biased.
Zhou Chen, who has an IQ of 139, said that errors are normal.
"Sleep, don't think about it anymore."
Satisfied, Zhou Chen stopped thinking about this small problem and fell asleep directly.
Sleeping instantly is his special skill.
And while Zhou Chen was sleeping soundly, in Wutan City, thousands of miles away, the wings of fate had already begun to shake...
