My Cultivation Starting from Archery

Chen Sansi realized that the person he had temporarily disabled would be paralyzed for a long time without treasure medicine to treat her.

After thinking it over, he lifted the woman onto his shoulder and left the house.

The woman, full of resentment, murmured, "Just take me to the Red Sleeve Tower."

Today was truly the most unlucky day of her life.

She was just delivering a message; how could she have encountered a Martial Saint?

Without so much as a question, he plunged so many knives into her, utterly savage. Where was the rumored hero who helped civilians across the river, the good Samaritan? He was just downright evil.

Luckily, he didn't dare to kill her, it seemed that the reputation of Seeking Immortal Tower still held some sway.

"Wait, where are you taking me?"

"..."

The woman who had just breathed a sigh of relief suddenly realized they were going the wrong way: "This isn't the way to the Red Sleeve Tower."

The man carrying her was running so fast that the street scenes on both sides swiftly changed and receded.

About half an hour later, a mansion appeared in front of them, with three big characters written on the black plaque above the door—Governor Mansion.

Sun Xiangzong's private residence.

It was the crack of dawn, with the sky just beginning to brighten in the east.

Surprisingly, for someone who was the first person over military and political affairs in the Northern Territory during wartime, there were no patrolling soldiers, and not even a gatekeeper at the front gate, just two enormous stone lions.

"What, what are you going to do?"

The woman struggled desperately: "Let me go, let me go! You bastard, bastard!"

Chen Sansi had originally planned to just drop her on the street.

But then he thought better of it and decided to take her to the Governor Mansion.

Although he didn't kill her, he had caused her grave injury inflicted by Wen Zhi, which was an offense nonetheless; who knew if she might retaliate.

Furthermore, since Seeking Immortal Tower had sought him out after the Selected Point, it certainly had something to do with Sun Xiangzong, not to mention the Qingxuan Energy. He feared the situation was too complex for someone of his mere Refining Internal achievement to handle.

Besides, it was something that couldn't be hidden.

If only two people knew, it could be manageable, but even Master Wen had seen her; it was never a secret in the first place.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Chen Sansi knocked on the door.

After a long while, a servant came to open the door, yawning and groggily asking, "Who is it, who are you looking for?"

"I am Chen Sansi,"

Chen Sansi introduced himself, "I need to see the Lord Governor."

"Oh, Mr. Chen, please wait a moment,"

The servant obviously had heard of this year's Champion Leader from the Selected Point.

He went inside to notify his master.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the servant returned with a wheelchair.

"Junior brother, master is still resting. Whatever it is, you can tell me,"

Fang Qingyun looked at the blood-covered woman on Chen Sansi's shoulder with puzzlement and said, "What's this about...?"

"Senior brother four,"

Chen Sansi put the woman down on the ground and briefly described what had happened: "I'm not exactly sure what's going on, but I'll leave it to you."

"Seeking Immortal Tower?"

Fang Qingyun commented with interest, "It's been many years since they've shown themselves. I didn't expect them to come to you so quickly."

"Junior brother, you need not worry about it anymore. Leave her here, and they won't dare to come for you again. Master has been quite busy and won't be able to see you for now. Let's wait until after the admittance ceremony."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Four."

Chen Sansi bowed in gratitude and took his leave.

As he walked a few steps away, he looked back one last time at the Qingxuan Energy on the woman's body, flickering like fireflies.

It seemed that it wasn't only Sun Governor who knew how to absorb Qingxuan Energy. Seeking Immortal Tower must have also grasped some methods, albeit clumsily, so clumsily as to be almost useless—at least it had no effect on the woman in black.

Chen Sansi's internal injuries were still a bit painful. Too lazy to walk, he summoned Qian Xun, who was still sleeping at home, to carry him.

On the way back, he saw Master Wen, who had not slept all night, sitting at a tea stall at the corner of the road at the end of the mansion's district.

'Was he guarding the gate for me all night?'

"Chen Sansi!"

Wen Zhi questioned, "Who exactly is the person in black, from which sect or faction, and why did they want to kill you? Tell me everything immediately!"

"Master Wen need not concern himself,"

Chen Sansi said without looking back.

"You think I want to meddle!"

Wen Zhi stood up abruptly.

At the very least, if this kid died within a few days of the Selected Point's end, he would never wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"I have taken the person to the Governor Mansion. If Master Wen wants to know, he can go and ask."

Chen Sansi lightly flicked the whip on the slightly grumpy Qian Xun, speeding away.

"Outrageous!"

Wen Zhi roared, reducing the table in front of him to splinters.

"You, you... " The teahouse owner pointed accusingly, his voice trembling: "I'm going to report this to the Governor Mansion!"

"Shut up, I'll compensate you with silver!"

"..."

...

It took Chen Sansi two days, using the Healing Treasure Medicine given by Senior Sister Nine, to recover from his internal injuries, and then he resumed his cultivation, aiming to break through to Refining Internal Organs Perfection before the end of the month.

Small Achievement and Perfection were indeed worlds apart.

Had he also been able to unleash a Blood Explosion, would he have needed to exert so much effort against Cao Fan?

[Cultivation Technique: Unity Spear Technique (Small Achievement)]

[Progress: 829/2000]

The higher one ascends in the Martial Arts Realm, the slower the progress naturally becomes, and even the Body of Martial Saint was no exception. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people stuck at a certain realm.

The speed he had attained was, in part, thanks to Spiritual Grain.

If outsiders knew, they would certainly marvel at his rapid progress. Continue reading at empire

But Chen Sansi was still dissatisfied.

It wasn't greed, but sheer necessity.

With Cao Fan, Seeking Immortal Tower, and Moon Splitting Mountain Villa all keeping a close eye on him, he could not always rely on the protection of the Eight Camps and the Governor. After all, even immortals can't be everywhere at once.

Not to mention, they were all quite busy in their daily affairs.
