Martial Arts Have Mastery
Translator: Tuiwen Editor: Tuiwen
Since he had received her favor, he felt obliged to agree to her request.
Shen Ling had always obtained so many benefits from Miss Qin and for this reason, he knew that such a day would come.
He looked at her with a smile on his face and said, “Feel free to tell me what it is, Miss Qin. If it’s something I can do, be rest assured that I will put in my best.”
She nodded slowly and said, “Well, it’s not a difficult matter. I just hope that you can help me in settling some people. They need a place to stay and it’s best if it doesn’t attract any attention.”
Settling some people?
This puzzled Shen Ling. The Chennan Trading Company was quite a popular name, and to him, it didn’t seem like he needed to do something like this for them.
Immediately she saw his strange appearance, it was as if she could see through his thoughts. “Actually, these people have special identities and right now, we are not in the right position to do this in the name of the trading company and you’re the only one I can ask right now.”
As Miss Qin said this, she went on her knees and bowed her head slightly to him.
“Alright, I promise you.”
Shen Ling said with a gentle nod. Then he looked at her closely and asked, “So may I know who you want me to help settle down?”
With a smile, Miss Qin said, “It’s Yang Jian’s family. He is the former prefecture overseer of the Great Qian Empire.”
The former prefecture overseer of the Great Qian Empire?
Shen Ling squinted as soon as he heard this.
Miss Qin continued, “Some time ago, Mr. Yang was framed up and ended up in prison. After a few trials, he was spared from the death penalty. However, his family of six ended up being punished.”
“His daughter and I used to be close friends. It would hurt me even more if she’s always homeless.”
Shen Ling nodded to show he understood her and said, “I see.”
With that being said, he wasn’t worried anymore.
It might be difficult for others to get a place for a family of six, but the sharecropping village was currently expanding. Sending this family over there would not be so obvious at all.
Since there was now a solution, he looked at her and asked, “Where exactly is Mr. Yang and his family now?”
“They are still on their way. They’ll arrive here in two days,” she said with a smile.
Shen Ling nodded.
With that, he took the ‘Treading on Air’ from her. All of a sudden, he looked up and asked, “By the way, why did you choose me to do this for you?”
As far as he was concerned, settling down a whole family could not be compared to the ‘Treading on Air’ that costs 3000 taels of silver.
Although this was worth 3000 taels of silver in Miss Qin’s eyes, Shen Ling, who did not have the right to set the price seemed to have gained an advantage this time.
She smiled again and said, “Truth be told, you have proven your ability over time and I think we can work well together.”
Proven his ability over time?
Shen Ling couldn’t help but wonder. Just then, he saw her pointing to the west.
The west…
“You mean the Green Mountain?” he asked.
Shen Ling looked back at her only to see her nod. “It seems that you now understand what I meant.”
Shen Ling nodded with a smile. “Is Chennan Trading Company just a trading company?”
“Well, you can think whatever you want, Young Master Shen,” she said in reply.
Her piercing reply dissuaded him from asking any further questions.
But even at that, he already had a rough understanding of the company’s intelligence capabilities.
It wasn’t as simple as he had thought.
Not at all.
He knew he was right. How could a simple trading company like this have something like a brand new triple crossbow?
Shen Ling smiled politely.
After some time, he talked about the triple crossbow with Miss Qin.
After he had ordered another batch of the crossbows, he turned around and left.
“I’m getting lucky today!”
Shen Ling muttered to himself as he went down the stairs.
It didn’t matter if it was ‘Iron Shirt’ or ‘Treading on Air’, they were both items that he had a huge need for at the moment.
Obtaining these two cultivation techniques at a small price was simply making a huge profit.
Although he was happy, he still maintained a calm expression.
He returned home and went quickly into his room.
He put both cultivation methods on the table. Looking from one to the other, he wondered which one to start from.
This was a huge problem for a person who found it difficult to make choices.
After a while…
He opened his eyes and looked at the iron shirt he was holding.
He began breathing in and out simultaneously.
After a while, he shut his eyes tightly.
‘Perseverance and Hard Work 3.0.’
‘Name: Shen Ling.’
‘Age: 17.’
‘Cultivation method: Longevity Technique [rank-seven low-grade cultivation method, Level 4, proficiency 1,000/50,000]
‘Cultivation method: Mountain-splitting Saber Technique [rank-seven upper-grade saber technique, level 5, proficiency 42,850/100,000]
‘Cultivation method: Iron Shirt [rank-nine upper-grade cultivation method, not yet learned, proficiency 0/100]
‘Status: Tired.’
Shen Ling looked at his status bar.
It showed he was tired.
This was quite true. He had been so busy dealing with the affairs of the village in the last two days and didn’t have enough time to rest at all.
He didn’t know this without looking at his status bar. But after looking at it, he felt sleepy all of a sudden.
Subconsciously, he walked to the edge of the bed and fell asleep.
A moment later, Xiao Huan walked into the room and looked at Ling, who was still asleep by the side of the bed. She called out to him gently.
“Young Master?”
When she saw that he didn’t respond, she took off his shoes and placed him well on the bed.
She also covered him with the blanket and left the room peacefully.
Shen Ling slept for a very long time.
The next morning.
When Shen Ling woke up, the first thing he saw was the blanket on his body and the breakfast that was on his table.
In all honesty, it felt good to have someone look out for him.
He sighed in his heart.
When he was done with his breakfast, he started circulating his Qi once again.
‘You have completed one successful training session of the Iron Shirt. Proficiency + 1.’
Success!
He nodded in satisfaction. Although it was only a successful evaluation of adding a little proficiency, it was a very good start for him.
After all, it was also possible for him to have failed woefully.
Before he could finish processing his thoughts…
He opened his eyes slowly and noticed that the second Qi breathing exercise had failed.
What could have caused this?
He thought about this for a long time and still couldn’t come up with a tangible reason.
He flipped open the cultivation method book that talked about the Iron Shirt and studied it carefully.
Soon enough, he began his third attempt.
‘You have completed one successful training session of the Iron Shirt. Proficiency + 1.’
He was successful once again.
But this time, Shen Ling’s face didn’t show any excitement.
He opened the book once again and studied it even more.
This time around, he saw something different.
He began the fourth attempt.
This time, he did strange movements while breathing in and out.
After a while: ‘You have completed one full training session of the Iron Shirt. Proficiency + 5.’
Seeing this, his eyes lit up.
Sure enough, the breathing and movements of the Iron Shirt were not cultivated separately.
After mastering this, his enthusiasm increased rapidly.
After some hours, Shen Ling, who was exhausted and drenched in sweat, successfully cultivated the Iron Shirt to the first level.
‘Cultivation technique: Iron Shirt [rank-nine upper-grade cultivation technique, first level, proficiency 0/1000] .’
At the same time, he thought about some things about the Iron Shirt that wasn’t recorded in the book.
With this, he clenched his fists.
All of a sudden, he looked up sharply..
Chapter 15: 15
