Chapter 38
Blood Qi Realm Martial Artist!
Moreover, if he joined the Divine Constable Bureau, he would become bound. Su Jie did not want to be like Su Wu, who had worked hard for half his life before becoming crippled. Therefore, he rejected him without hesitation.
“That’s a pity.” Liu Guangqi looked rather regretful.
In reality, Liu Guangqi did not care much about this. Su Jie was only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old youth. In his eyes, it did not matter if he joined the Divine Constable Bureau or not!
Liu Guangqi’s main objective in personally coming to Qingshui Town was to comfort Su Wu.
“Su Wu, rest well. If there’s anything, feel free to look for me. I’ll leave first.”
Then, Liu Guangqi bade farewell and Su Wu stood up to send him off.
“What a pity… Su Wu lost an arm. Otherwise, he could have progressed further in the future.”
After Liu Guangqi left, he sighed in his heart. Su Wu was his capable subordinate but he became crippled.
As for the matter of regrowing an arm? Liu Guangqi knew that the Vitality Creation Pill he needed was not easy to obtain!
“Now, let’s go to Heiye City. That Ape Demon was able to destroy the Black Wolf Bastion by himself. Even a martial artist at the First Transformation of the Blood Qi Realm like me can’t do that. Furthermore, he accepted the employment of Heiye City. It seems that he doesn’t belong to any faction. If I can recruit him into the Divine Constable Bureau, it might not be a bad thing!”
As he walked, Liu Guangqi was thinking about his next step.
Apart from coming to visit Su Wu, who was injured by work, he was also preparing to recruit that Ape Demon!
The Ape Demon has risen to fame in Heiye City while originally not worth paying attention to. However, in the battle at the Black Wolf Bastion, the Ape Demon killed Qin Heilang and defeated the Black Wolf Bastion alone. This was undoubtedly very shocking!
Liu Guangqi was a bronze-level divine constable of the Divine Constable Bureau. He was a martial arts expert and had already stepped into the Blood Qi Realm. However, when he thought about it honestly, he concluded that he would only die of exhaustion if he fought thousands of bandits alone!
The Ape Demon was able to sweep through the Black Wolf Bastion alone and dared to fight a thousand alone. Moreover, he did not seem to have joined any forces. This naturally made Liu Guangqi want to recruit him into the Divine Constable Bureau.
“Who… is this Ape Demon?”
Now, Liu Guangqi was prepared to personally make a trip to Heiye City to visit Heiye City’s magistrate, Zhou Yun and ask him to help introduce the Ape Demon. He was also looking forward to meeting this mysterious Ape Demon.
Liu Guangqi did not know that he had already seen the real Ape Demon.
Liu Guangqi’s visit was just a small interlude.
In the Su residence, Su Wu collected himself. He looked at Su Jie and said: “Jie’er, your Ape Demon King Kong Fist should have reached the perfected realm, right? Now, if you want to take another step forward, you have to have a blood cultivation technique to transform your blood and Qi.”
“Father, do you have a blood cultivation technique?”
Hearing this, Su Jie’s eyes lit up. He was already prepared to ask Su Wu if he knew where to find a blood cultivation technique.
Su Wu nodded slightly. “My master, Wang Changqing, taught me my martial arts. Master is a Blood Qi Realm martial artist, so he naturally has a blood cultivation technique. I’ll bring you to visit him.”
These words made Su Jie happy.
Su Jie had heard Su Wu talk about his past.
When Su Wu was young, his parents died in war. He wandered around and was eventually adopted by someone.
That person was Su Wu’s master, Wang Changqing.
According to Su Wu, Wang Changqing was skilled in martial arts but he did not like to fight. He lived in seclusion in the mountains and practiced martial arts. Every year, Su Wu would visit him when he was free!
Now that Su Jie had surpassed him and needed to take another step forward, Su Wu wanted to take him to see Wang Changqing so he could teach Su Jie some blood cultivation techniques. This was due to how Su Jie was unwilling to join the Divine Constable Bureau.
“That’s great!”
Su Jie’s heart was also burning with passion. With his current foundation, he could already cultivate the blood cultivation technique easily!
As long as he had a blood cultivation technique, Su Jie believed that with his ability, it would not be difficult for him to break through to the Blood Qi Realm.
The next morning, Su Jie and Su Wu left Qingshui Town in a carriage.
“Master lives on Qingye Mountain in the Dafeng Prefecture. He likes peace and quiet. His only hobby is drinking and practicing martial arts. Let’s bring some good wine to see him.”
On the way, Su Wu also told Su Jie about Wang Changqing’s temperament and hobbies. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦
They did not hurry. It took them more than a week to reach Qingye Mountain. 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m
Qingye Mountain was a heavily wooded mountain forest. At the foot of the hill was a small village. It was not large but smoke rose from the chimneys. It had a tranquil beauty.
Su Jie carried two jars of wine and entered the mountain with Su Wu.
After traveling for more than half an hour, Su Jie saw a simple courtyard in the forest ahead. The door was closed.
This was where Wang Changqing lived in seclusion.
At the door, Su Wu rang the knocker and shouted, “Master, I’m here to visit you.”
“Let yourself in. The door is unlocked.”
Before long, a lazy voice sounded from inside the door.
Su Wu pushed the door open and entered. Su Jie followed him into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, Su Jie saw a man lying on a wooden recliner in the middle of the courtyard. He was hugging a wine bottle.
The man did not look old, at best he was only in his thirties or forties. His long hair was messy and unkempt but on a closer look, his black hair was mixed with strands of white hair. This person was Wang Changqing.
This was beyond Su Jie’s expectations. According to Su Wu, Wang Changqing should be over 60 years old but he did not look 60 years old at all. Instead, he looked like he was in his prime!
“Huh? Wu, what happened to your hand?”
When Wang Changqing saw Su Wu and Su Jie enter, he saw that Su Wu’s right sleeve was empty. He immediately frowned and asked.
Su Wu touched his empty sleeve and smiled bitterly. “I encountered some stuff. Fortunately, I survived.”
Su Wu did not talk much about this matter. He then introduced to Wang Changqing: “Master, this is my son, Su Jie. I was prepared to bring him to visit you in the past.”
Su Jie greeted obediently: “Greetings, Master.”
“Not bad… He’s quite handsome. Since he’s here, let’s have fun for a few days.”
Wang Changqing’s expression became much more amiable. He nodded and praised.
Su Wu and Su Jie both stayed at Wang Changqing’s house.
That afternoon, Wang Changqing personally cooked a table full of dishes. From the looks of it, Wang Changqing did not seem to be an outstanding martial artist. One would not expect him to be a Blood Qi realm martial artist who could fight a hundred people alone!
At the dining table, Wang Changqing asked casually: “Wu, your son looks very strong. He has been practicing martial arts since he was young, right?”
Su Wu nodded and immediately replied: “To be honest, Master, Jie’er’s talent is extraordinary. Although he hasn’t practiced martial arts for more than ten years, he’s already above me! I brought Jie’er to visit Master this time because I want Master to teach Jie’er blood refinement and cultivation techniques.”
As soon as he said that, Wang Changqing was surprised. “Above you?”
Wang Changqing knew that his disciple was a top-notch expert in the Divine Constable Bureau. However, Su Jie was only fifteen years old but he was already ranked among the top martial artists?
