Chapter 391: She can't wait for you to ruin her
It's been several days of peaceful life again.
During this time, Xu Lingjun's life has been quite calm...
He truly didn't expect that Li Fufeng could discover, just through their brief confrontation, that he had already begun trying to cultivate the Wind Seeking and Snow Returning Technique of the Li family.
What Xu Lingjun didn't expect even more was that Li Fufeng wasn't angry at all and even gifted him with the complete version of the Wind Seeking and Snow Returning Technique.
This was truly beyond Xu Lingjun's expectations.
He imagined Li Fufeng to be a stingy, serious, and old-fashioned old lady...
But in fact, although this old lady was a bit old-fashioned, she was really quite nice.
She just gave away the family's inherited esoteric knowledge like it was nothing.
With this, Xu Lingjun became quite busy.
Every two or three days, he had to go out once to gather Source Value... just maybe because the name of the Li family's son-in-law had already spread throughout Yuzhang City.
There was no way to create such a strong impact on people anymore, leading to a significant reduction in the Source Value he could acquire.
But even a little is better than nothing, he's not picky...
You know, the last time he collected so much Source Value in one go, it was when Zhou Qianmo wreaked havoc at the Beixuan Martial Mansion...
But back then, Xu Lingjun was risking his life on the front lines, not like now where he just flirted with girls and showed off his lovey-dovey skills to earn Source Value.
You can't be unsatisfied as a person.
Most of the time, Xu Lingjun was actually contemplating Martial Skills in the Li family.
The Wind Seeking and Snow Returning Technique just got into his hands, and it needed to be carefully comprehended, and there was also the Confusing Wind and Cloud Step that needed to be cultivated and familiarized with...
Only during his showdown with Li Fuchen did Xu Lingjun get to understand how astonishing the Confusing Wind and Cloud Step truly was.
Every step taken was completely beyond the enemy's expectations.
Sometimes, even Xu Lingjun himself didn't know where he was going next, because anywhere was possible, so he could be more free, not knowing his next move meant the enemy naturally wouldn't know either.
These two cultivation techniques were of significant help to Xu Lingjun.
Naturally, he was busy meticulously comprehending them...
If there was anything he couldn't understand about the Wind Seeking and Snow Returning Technique, he would consult Li Jingjun, and if that didn't work, he would go look for Li Fufeng again.
As for the Confusing Wind and Cloud Step, he would occasionally contact Sun Bumie and seek his guidance.
No matter what Sun Bumie was busy with, as soon as he received a call from Xu Lingjun, he would immediately put everything down and help Xu Lingjun with all his might to resolve any doubts.
With two Grandmaster level experts helping him solve problems.
Xu Lingjun's comprehension of the two cultivation techniques was extraordinarily fast...
He had already secretly made up his mind.
Gift a peach, and return a plum in kind.
These two treated him so well, although Li Fufeng said it wasn't necessary, in the future, if he and Li Jingjun truly had children, he would be willing to allow one of their children to take the mother's surname... The Li family had contributed so much to the Great Xia Empire, such a heroic family, he indeed couldn't bear for the Li family's bloodline to end here.
Although a surname isn't the most crucial part of continuing a bloodline, since Li Fufeng cared so much, he didn't mind reciprocating with what he could.
As for Sun Bumie...
After he returns from the Polar Star Battlefield, he will go to the Cuowu Sect, browse through the many Martial Skills of the Cuowu Sect, select the ones suitable for himself, and then gift them the Reversed Tao Qiankun.
Even though it's just a transaction, they had already proven their sincerity.
Xu Lingjun was embarrassed to exploit them for too long.
Peaceful days always pass quickly...
In a blink of an eye, seven or eight days had gone by.
And that early morning.
Four guests visited the Li Mansion.
And one of them was surprisingly...
"I really didn't expect your father to be willing to send you out."
Xu Lingjun looked a bit surprised at the leader among them, who was clearly Han Yun City.
And now Han Yun City, in a fitted outfit, had a bold expression, like a tiger unleashed from its cage, full of spirit.
He coldly laughed and said, "The old thing didn't want me to come... unfortunately, although you're also a Deputy Commander, without military achievements, you likely wouldn't be able to command much respect on the Polar Star Battlefield. It's different for me; I'm the most suitable for this mission."
He introduced, "And these three are the most elite specialists drafted from various units, and they'll be working with us in our operation. Our mission is to ensure they can successfully collect enough Void Gold."
Listening to Han Yun City's introduction, Xu Lingjun finally understood.
These three were evidently elites from all sides.
One medical soldier named Sun Qinglong, reportedly performed hundreds of surgeries in extremely harsh conditions, saving countless soldiers who were deemed impossible to save!
She had made significant contributions, but she seemed around thirty years old, with a stern expression and fairly delicate features. When Han Yun City introduced her, she saluted Xu Lingjun, a glimmer in her eyes, and said, "Captain Sun Qinglong, reporting to Deputy Commander!"
The other two, one was the reputed elite reconnaissance soldier Liu Dong.
He looked like he was in his fifties or sixties and reportedly served on the Polar Star Battlefield for over thirty years before retiring. But due to post-war PTSD, he couldn't seamlessly integrate into human society, so he was recruited into the Yinglong Army, where he specialized in securing the Imperial City, with reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance skills among the best.
When introduced, he gave Xu Lingjun a simple smile.
But Xiaoya whispered a frantic warning that this man was eyeing your neck, heart, and groin... be careful, master.
The other was a professional geological survey expert named Zhao Yang, reportedly a top graduate from the Interstellar Academy. As Han Yun City spoke, he gave Xu Lingjun a knowing look, then glanced at Zhao Yang, meaning the people from the Interstellar Academy were difficult to deal with, high and mighty.
As soon as the introduction ended.
Zhao Yang already rushed forward in one swift motion, grasping Xu Lingjun's hand excitedly, "You... you're Academician Xu, right? I can't believe I'm meeting a living legend, let alone having the fortune to accompany you for an extended period. It's truly an honor, an honor! Frankly, the Mecha you developed and the Transformation Capsule have really opened our eyes. Who would've thought technology could be used this way."
Xu Lingjun let out an "ah" sound.
Han Yun City couldn't help but cover his face, recalling this guy's disdainful and aloof behavior toward the three illiterates during their journey here, and now seeing this practically sycophantic appearance, he sighed and shook his head...
But now, it seemed like someone could handle this guy.
Watching Xu Lingjun finally break free from Zhao Yang.
Han Yun City handed Xu Lingjun a token, saying, "Also, this is from your little wife."
Xu Lingjun asked curiously, "Little wife? Who?"
"That one from the West Origin Martial Mansion..."
Xu Lingjun asked curiously, "Sun Lingli?"
Han Yun City nodded and said, "That's right."
Xu Lingjun frowned and said, "She's not my little wife, Han Yun City, watch your words, or you'll ruin a young maiden's reputation, and you won't afford the compensation when the time comes."
Han Yun City rolled his eyes and said, "You can't afford it but you can? Besides, when I saw her at the time, I mentioned weren't you that Xu Lingjun's little wife... the girl laughed so much her mouth couldn't close, no sign of any ruined reputation distress."
Xu Lingjun: "................."
He took the token and examined it closely in his palm.
The material of this thing was quite special; it felt neither like gold nor iron, yet just holding it felt incredibly valuable.
"She said this is the Stream Master Token of the Wind Fist Style, holding this token makes you the new Stream Master of the Wind Fist Style!"
Han Yun City said, "If you understand the situation on the Polar Star Battlefield, then you should know how influential this token is on the Polar Star Battlefield."
Xu Lingjun remained silent, this was evidently something he understood.
