Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Since this clause has been posted, it means that as long as a Duan Family Disciple violates this regulation, they will be subject to the severe punishment under the Duan Family Rules.

Duan Gujin's eyes flashed; he suspected that this particular rule was likely set by Duan Yi especially for him.

"It seems I should think of a way to see if I can gain the support of the Family Head within the Duan Family."

Duan Gujin took a deep breath and with a flash in his eyes, he entered the Duan Family's Cultivation Chamber to cultivate.

The management of the Duan Family's Cultivation Chamber was very strict, and the chamber itself only had ten times the normal gravity.

Hence, it was nearly impossible for anyone to tamper with anything inside the Cultivation Chamber.

Duan Gujin spent two earnest days in the Cultivation Chamber, and on the third day, he left the chamber.

While inside the Cultivation Chamber, he keenly sensed subtle changes happening in his body every moment.

These subtle changes, although not apparent, would become evident to Duan Gujin as the days passed, and he would distinctly feel the real changes in his body.

"I have already touched the edge of the red Postnatal Sixth Realm!"

Duan Gujin was very excited in his heart, but he did not force himself to break through to the Postnatal Sixth Realm immediately; he knew his body needed to settle and adapt.

"I need a few days to settle down. Once my body adapts, I will strive to break through to the Postnatal Sixth Realm!"

Upon returning to his courtyard, he first rested for half a day, then he went to Ye Manxiang's residence.

At that time, he saw that Ye Tang had already come to his senses.

However, Ye Tang's body was extremely weak, and he had great difficulty even walking.

Seeing Ye Tang trying to stand, Duan Gujin told him to lie down.

Duan Gujin grabbed Ye Tang's hand, and his Divine Sense entered his body.

After a while, he channeled his Primordial Power into Ye Tang's body to expel the remaining toxins.

Two hours later, Duan Gujin finally ceased his efforts.

He exhaled a breath and said to Ye Manxiang, "The toxins in your brother's body have been expelled. What he needs to do now is rest well and recover. I have one thousand Gold Coins here for you; take them and buy some more nutritious food for your brother to strengthen his body!"

Seeing Ye Manxiang refusing his Gold Coins, Duan Gujin warned her, pointing out that her brother's body was indeed very weak and in dire need of sufficient food for recovery.

If her brother could not get enough food during this period, there might be unforeseen consequences.

After hearing Duan Gujin's intimidating words, Ye Manxiang finally accepted his Gold Coins.

"You all rest well here!"

Duan Gujin said indifferently.

"Okay!"

Ye Manxiang looked surprised; she could not comprehend what Duan Gujin was trying to do.

Initially, she thought Duan Gujin had improper thoughts about her, but since he had said nothing, she was genuinely at a loss about what he wanted to do.

Even if he coveted her beauty, up until now her face had been as black as ink, and by that reasoning, a normal man should not be interested in her.

Outside that rented house, Ye Manxiang suddenly asked, "Duan Gujin, why are you being so kind to us?"

Duan Gujin exhaled and said, "I didn't know how to tell you this, but since you asked, I will be straightforward. Do you want revenge?"

"Yes!"

Ye Manxiang nodded forcefully in response.

"If you want revenge, you either need enough strength to kill the Prime Minister of Country Gulai, or do you think you have that strength?" Duan Gujin said persuasively.

"I don't have such strong strength!"

Ye Manxiang very much wanted to avenge her father, but she was clear that with her current capabilities, it was impossible for her to take revenge.

The Prime Minister Cao would certainly be surrounded by many powerful experts, and the difficulty of killing him was unimaginable.

"If you don't have enough strength, there are other ways to avenge your father. Do you have enough wealth? If you do, you could hire top experts to kill Prime Minister Cao for you. But do you have enough wealth?" Duan Gujin continued to inquire.

"No! I have no wealth, as you know!"

Ye Manxiang shook her head in response.

"That's right, since you have neither the strength nor the wealth, what you can choose now is to seek refuge with a force that is still somewhat capable. Here, the power of the Duan Family is very formidable. Although our Duan Family does not currently possess the ability to help you kill Prime Minister Cao and avenge you, before you acquire great strength or sufficient wealth, you can choose to seek refuge with our Duan Family!"

After listening, Ye Manxiang suddenly understood.

"So you plan to recruit us as your disciples or subordinates, or even as your assassins?"

Her mind started working, and she thought of three possibilities.

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered a few times, and he felt there was no need to lie to Ye Manxiang.

"I'll be honest with you. I am a Direct Disciple of the Duan Family, and the power struggle within the family is very fierce. Therefore, I want to cultivate a couple of loyal subordinates. I can pass on my martial skills to you both. You can think about it?"

Thus, Duan Gujin stated his intentions directly.

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Ye Manxiang looked at him sideways and scrutinized him.

After a moment, she asked, "Duan Gujin, how old are you this year?"

Duan Gujin's eyebrows furrowed, and after pondering for a moment, he answered, "I am sixteen today, and in a few months, I will be seventeen. Don't think that because I'm young, I lack cunning. I'm an old hand in the worldly society!"

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Ye Manxiang burst into laughter.

"Goodness! Only sixteen, and already so scheming?" she inquired.

Duan Gujin replied very seriously, "It's not that I'm scheming; it's that the current situation of the Duan Family is truly very dangerous, filled with peril. I just want to cultivate a couple of subordinates who will take orders from me as early as possible!"

Ye Manxiang chuckled dryly, finding Duan Gujin's ideas utterly absurd; such a young child contemplated cultivating loyal subordinates as if they could be developed so easily.

"Fine! I don't mind, but I lack a Cultivation Secret Manual, Elixir Pills, Martial Skills, and a place to cultivate. If you really want to develop a useful subordinate, secret manuals, elixir pills, martial skills, and a place for cultivation are indispensable. Can you provide these to us without cost?"

"Yes, but not right now. I will slowly work out ways to get you everything you just mentioned! Your brother is very weak right now; he needs time to recover his strength!"

Saying this, Duan Gujin realized that recruiting the two of them as his subordinates was not as simple as just talking about it.
