Chapter 17: 17

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After a huge battle, the Han Residence was in a mess. There were bloodstains, corpses, and charred houses everywhere.

Back when the alarm sounded, all the courtyard guards joined in the battle. The servants who were not martial art cultivators also joined in, and no one went to put out the fire.

The fire grew stronger and spread widely. It couldn’t be put out in time, so many houses were burned down.

Even after cleaning, Lu Yu could still smell the faint smell of blood and the burning smell in the air.

Lu Yu went to the logistics department, today was the day of the salary day. Usually, there should be many people lining up to receive their monthly salary.

But now, there were fewer people at the gate of the logistics department than usual, so there was no need to line up at all.

Lu Yu directly walked forward and said that he was here to receive this month’s salary.

Although he had only worked in the Han Residence for a month, as long as he became an official courtyard guard, he would be able to receive this month’s salary. Even Wang Can, who had just become a courtyard guard, could get his salary as well.

“Name?”

“Lu Yu.”

The accountant quickly found Lu Yu’s information, “Lu Yu, outer court guard, body refining realm first level. Monthly salary 30 gold and 20 marching balls.”

After saying that, he took out two bags from the cabinet behind him and placed them in front of Lu Yu.

Lu Yu picked up the small cloth bag and felt that there was a flat object inside. It should be gold coins. The other bag felt like a ball in his hand. It was marching balls.

“Next.” the accountant called out.

Seeing that Lu Yu hadn’t left yet, the accountant said, “Why aren’t you leaving yet? Is there a problem?”

“No, there’s no problem.” Lu Yu quietly put the things into his backpack and continued, “I still have some things I want to collect.”

“Butler Zhang said that I can collect one body tempering pill every day for a month, so I want to collect all of them at once.”

“Wait a minute.” the accountant quickly flipped through the account book and found the record that he was talking about.

“Yes, there is such record, but it says one pill a day. So, I can’t give you all of it at once. It’s against the rules.”

Just as Lu Yu was about to persuade the accountant, Wang Qiang walked out from the courtyard.

Seeing Lu Yu standing at the door, Wang Qiang was pleasantly surprised, “You’re okay? That’s great! I thought something happened to you!”

“What could have happened to me? After blowing the alarm whistle, I hid. I was lucky and didn’t get hurt. But why are you here? Didn’t you already enter the inner court?” Lu Yu asked curiously.

“Sigh, the original accountant was killed. So, the higher-ups asked me to take charge of the logistics department and supervised the new persons. After all, I just entered the inner court and am familiar with the outer court, so they sent me here.” Wang Qiang replied.

“What are you doing in the logistics department?” Wang Qiang asked. When he saw the people lining up behind Lu Yu, he patted his head and suddenly understood.

“So today is the day of receiving the monthly salary. I was so busy that I forgot. You are here to receive the monthly salary, right?” Looking at the accountant, he said, “Bring Lu Yu’s monthly salary.”

The accountant was a little helpless and explained, “I have already given it to him.”

Lu Yu told Wang Qiang his idea of taking all the body tempering pills that Butler Zhang promised him later today.

Wang Qiang waved his hand and said, “No problem. Go and take out the body tempering pills that belong to Lu Yu. If anything happens, I will take responsibility.”

He knew clearly how much Butler Zhang valued Lu Yu. This was just a small matter. Butler Zhang would not blame him.

Anyway, those things were belonged to Lu Yu, and he was just giving them to Lu Yu in advance.

Lu Yu called out to the accountant who was about to take the things and said, “Wait a moment.”

After thinking for a moment, he decided to reveal some of his strength and said, “I’m already close to the third level of the body refining realm, and the effect of the body tempering pills on me become weaker, so I want to exchange the body tempering pills for qi-blood pills of the same value, is that okay?”

Wang Qiang was very surprised when he heard that. He didn’t expect Lu Yu’s strength to increase so quickly. To be able to cultivate to the second level and close to the third level of the body refining realm this quick was quite impressive.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Qiang said decisively, “Exchange the body tempering pills for qi-blood pills for him. I’ll bear all the consequences.”

He thought it through clearly. The stronger Lu Yu’s talent was, the greater Butler Zhang’s expectations of Lu Yu would be, and the more importance he placed on Lu Yu.

After hearing Wang Qiang’s order, the accountant did not say anything and went into the warehouse to take out the items.

“According to the account book, you still have 16 body tempering pills to collect. One qi-blood pill is equivalent to eight body tempering pills. You’ll get two qi-blood pills.”

The accountant handed the porcelain bottle containing the two qi-blood pills to Lu Yu. Lu Yu opened it and took a look. There were two light red pills inside.

After keeping it, he said to Wang Qiang, “Thank you. If you have any problems in the future, you can ask me for help.”

Lu Yu naturally knew why Wang Qiang took the risk to help him. Their relationship was not very close, so Lu Yu simply made things clear. He owed Wang Qiang a favor.

Wang Qiang also smiled and said, “Okay.”

After getting the qi-blood pills, Lu Yu left the logistics department. If he didn’t leave now, the people in the queue behind him would be angry.

In the system store, one qi-blood pill cost 600 points, and one body tempering pill cost 100 points. In this way, the qi-blood pills in the system store were cheaper.

Lu Yu thought as he walked, but he didn’t have the intention to buy the qi-blood pills. This game was not something he could afford.

He took out a gold coin. The gold coin was about the same size as a one-yuan coin, but it should not be pure gold.

The coin was very hard. Lu Yu’s strength now far exceeded that of an ordinary person, but he could not leave a trace on the gold coin.

On the front of the gold coin was the head of the current emperor. On the back was the battle spear and battle flag that represented the strongest army of the Great Zhou Empire. They were crossed to form an X.

The craftsmanship was very exquisite, and Lu Yu could even see the patterns on the war flag.

[ Player has 30 gold coins detected. Do you want to top up game credit? ]

[ Hint: 1 gold coin = 10 points voucher. ]

Lu Yu was very surprised. Gold coins could be exchanged for points voucher?

Opening the top up button in the mall, Lu Yu confirmed that other than RMB, the currency in the game could also be used to purchase game credits, but he could only buy credits with gold coins. Silver coins and copper coins could not exchange for game credits.

After hesitating for a while, Lu Yu put away the gold coins and did not choose to buy game credits. The cheapest item in the system store required 100 coupons, which was 10 gold coins.

Anything below 10 gold coins could not be bought.

Although Lu Yu really wanted the thousand-mile communication talisman, he only had 30 gold coins on hand and could only buy three thousand-mile communication talismans. He could only send three messages to Su Peng.

After thinking about it, Lu Yu gave up.

After so many days playing this game, he didn’t want to know the secret of the game as much as he did in the beginning. He would know sooner or later anyway.

There were other uses for money. After all, the coupons could be bought at any time.

Lu Yu put away the gold coins and walked to his courtyard. He met a familiar face.

“Lu Yu, I was looking for you. Follow me.” the one who spoke was Zhang Lun, who was the one who tested Lu Yu back then. He was the real patrol guard at the west courtyard’s side gate.

“Looking for me? What’s the matter?” Lu Yu was a little puzzled. Why was he looking for him?

“You were the one who blew the whistle, right? Fortunately, you blew the whistle just in time, so those black-clothed men weren’t able to break into the inner courtyard. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened.”

“I need to bring you to receive the reward from the family head. On the other hand, I have a new mission for you.” Zhang Lun said.

The two walked toward the inner courtyard and chatted as they walked.

“I heard that the family head is going to reward you with a top-grade mortal-class cultivation technique, the kind that can be cultivated to the peak of the body refining realm.”

“And after you become a squire, you can also obtain advanced spirt class cultivation techniques and martial skills if you make enough contribution to Han Residence.”

“Top-grade mortal-class cultivation technique? Advanced spirit-class cultivation technique? Brother Zhang, can you tell me about it? I don’t know about these things,” Lu Yu said.

“Oh, I forgot. You haven’t learned any related knowledge.” Zhang Lun cleared his throat and said, “Then I’ll tell you some basic cultivation knowledge.”

“First is the realm of cultivation. The body refining realm allow ones cultivates qi-blood and strengthening the body. The qi cultivating realm allow one cultivates spiritual energy, condensing qi and spirit. The qi controlling realm allow one release spiritual energy and control the spirit weapons. Each realm is divided into nine levels.”

“Then there are the cultivation techniques, which are divided into mortal and spirit classes. Most of the fist, leg, and saber techniques that are widely spread among the people are mortal class cultivation techniques. Mortal class cultivation techniques can only be cultivated to the peak of the body refining realm.”

“If you want to become a martial art cultivator in the qi cultivating realm, you need to learn spirit class cultivation techniques. Even the the grade one spirit class cultivation technique is fine. Otherwise, you can only stay at the peak of the body refining realm.”

“Spirit class cultivation techniques are divided into nine grades. Mortal level cultivation techniques have no grades. However, it is customary to call some cultivation techniques that can be cultivated to the peak of the body refining realm as top-grade mortal class cultivation techniques.”

“You must know that not all mortal class cultivation techniques can be cultivated to the peak of the body refining realm.”

“Moreover, you cannot just randomly cultivate a cultivation technique. At the very least, the second cultivation technique that you cultivate cannot conflict with your first cultivation technique.”

“Otherwise, at the very least, your cultivation will drop drastically, and it will be difficult for you to walk. At the very most, your qi-blood will go against the flow, and your body will explode and die.”

“And then that’s spirit class cultivation techniques, which is the advancement of mortal class techniques. It shares great similarities with mortal class techniques, but it was less dangerous and easier to cultivate. Of course, there are also some talented ancestors who directly derived a spirit class cultivation technique from a mortal class cultivation technique.”

“However, that kind of cultivation technique is very rare, and it is not something that we can dream of.”

“Martial skills, pills, and weapons are things that are external to cultivation. In the future, you will also understand them, so I will briefly explain them to you.”

“Martial skill. Actually, the vast majority of mortal class cultivation techniques are both cultivation techniques and martial skills. It is very difficult to say whether which is which. However, martial skills and cultivation techniques above the spirit class are very different. You will know this when you become a martial art cultivator in the qi cultivating realm.”

“Spirit class martial skills are divided into nine grades. Medicinal pills are also divided into mortal class and spirit class. There is no grade for mortal class medicinal pills while spirit class is divided into nine grades. Spirit class medicinal pills are also called spirit pills. Body tempering pills, body enhancing pills, and qi-blood pills are all mortal class medicinal pills. Therefore, there is no grade for them.”

“Weapons are divided into mortal and spirit weapons, mortal weapons are divided into ordinary weapons and hundred refined weapons, and spirit weapons are divided into nine grades.”

“These are all general knowledge. You will naturally know the specifics in the future, so I don’t need to explain in detail.”

After saying this, Zhang Lun stopped and said, “We’re here. This is the inner court’s Reward and Punishment Pavilion.”

Lu Yu raised his head and looked over. A plaque with the words ‘Reward and Punishment Pavilion’ was hanging on it..
