Chapter 257: Chapter 151: Temporary Reincarnation Authority, Brother
Li Jianfei’s parents owned a fruit shop where they sold inexpensive fruit. Whenever they had unsold or bruised fruit, they often had Jianfei bring it to Li Chang’an. Knowing Li Chang’an had no parents, they would also invite him over for New Year’s Eve dinner.
Li Jianfei had a sister three years younger than him.
A few years ago, she would often pester Li Chang’an to take her out to play.
Although these were just fragnted mories, it was these very mories that ultimately ford the warm foundation of Li Chang’an’s current life.
Li Jianfei’s family genuinely cared for Li Chang’an.
And for that very reason, once he had the ability, Li Chang’an’s first thought was that he had to help his brother out.
...
「Evening.」
Next to an old residential complex in the Linjiang Outskirts.
The chubby Li Jianfei was grilling at, shirtless.
After failing to beco a Reincarnator, he didn’t continue in the family fruit business. Instead, he chose a relatively more profitable trade—opening a BBQ stall to sell grilled at!
He took over a storefront in a small alley next to his parents’ shop, spent so money on a simple renovation, and then set up his BBQ stall.
The BBQ stall was nad ’Jianfei’s BBQ’.
Li Jianfei wasn’t stingy when it ca to his ingredients. His at skewers were a third larger than his competitors’, he grilled quickly, and everything tasted delicious.
Business quickly started booming.
It even beca the star attraction of the alley.
The sun hadn’t even set yet, but the BBQ shop was already full of custors. There were even workers just getting off their shifts lining up outside.
Li Jianfei had long since shed his chubbiness and was now covered in robust muscle. Dozens of skewers were neatly arranged on the grill in front of him.
As the fierce flas licked the skewers, fat slowly dripped from the at.
The rich, aty aroma wafted through the entire alley.
Most people trying to grill so many skewers at once would likely be in a frantic ss, with a high risk of burning so.
But Li Jianfei’s hands were incredibly fast. He deftly flipped the skewers, then placed the cooked ones on a nearby plate. The entire process was one smooth motion, without a single wasted movent.
Even while grilling so many at once, not a single skewer was burned.
Many custors nearby were amazed by Li Jianfei’s skill, laughing as they comnted, "Jianfei, you’ve really mastered the art of grilling! With skills like that, you’ll never go hungry no matter where you go!"
Li Jianfei smiled at the custors, but his mind was clearly elsewhere.
Li Siying, who had just gotten out of school, was helping out as a waitress, handing skewers in order to the custors who had been waiting for a long ti.
Seeing Li Jianfei’s face covered in sweat, Li Siying couldn’t help but pout and mutter, "I’ve told you so many tis not to push yourself so hard when you practice your martial arts during the day. You still have to run the stall at night! But you just won’t listen. And fine, if you won’t listen, I told you to at least buy so dicinal powder from the pharmacy to ease the side effects, but you ignored that too. What on earth are you trying to do?!"
Li Jianfei replied casually, "What do you know, little girl? Running the stall is for survival. Practicing martial arts is a dream. Do you understand dreams?"
Li Siying rolled her eyes, but for once, she didn’t argue back. Instead, her voice was low as she said, "I’m not kidding. My teacher said that while *Basic Martial Arts Truth 2.0* can potentially turn ordinary people into Extraordinary Martial Artists, you have to use certain dicines to mitigate the side effects. Who just brute-forces it like you?"
At this, she paused, bit her lip, and suddenly pulled a still-warm packet of dicinal powder from her pocket. "This is what I have left from school. I know you always want to give
anything good first, but you’re the pillar of this family now. If you keep practicing like this and you collapse, what will happen to our family?! It’ll fall apart!"
Li Jianfei’s arms were trembling, but he still put on a nonchalant expression. "Always sothing with you. Go and study. My business isn’t sothing for a little girl like you to worry about. You should be focused on becoming an Official Reincarnator by the ti you’re eighteen. Now take this powder back and don’t fall behind on your schoolwork!"
Seeing he was unwilling to say more.
Li Siying’s eyes imdiately misted over. She turned and left in a huff.
Six months ago, the Linjiang Reincarnator Association suddenly distributed a cultivation technique called *Basic Martial Arts Truth 2.0* to the ordinary people of Linjiang City.
Furthermore, City Lord Su Ruobing told everyone that as long as they cultivated according to this technique, even ordinary people had a high probability of becoming Transcendents.
As soon as the news broke, it sparked a massive discussion throughout all of Linjiang.
Most ordinary people were skeptical about it.
After all, how could sothing so good possibly fall into their laps?
However, because Su Ruobing had a solid reputation in Linjiang City, many ordinary people, despite feeling it was a bit unreliable, still started cultivating according to the thods in *Basic Martial Arts Truth 2.0*.
They wouldn’t know until they tried.
But once they started cultivating, many were shocked. They could truly feel a significant improvent in their physical fitness after practicing *Basic Martial Arts Truth 2.0*!
Although no one had developed Qi Sensitivity yet, let alone knew how to beco Extraordinary...
...just being able to see clear progress was already a final lifeline for the countless common people at the bottom who lacked any other path for advancent.
For a ti, the spirit of martial arts grew stronger throughout Linjiang.
However, even though Li Chang’an had lowered the cultivation threshold for *Basic Martial Arts Truth 2.0* as much as possible, one still had to purchase certain dicinal powders to mitigate the side effects during the process.
