From apprenticing and learning skills, to step by step reaching his position today, Yan Yunsheng took ten years!
Then to be stuck by the limits of his cultivation technique, trapped in a bottleneck, unable to progress an inch!
He wasted another full five years!
Fifteen years!
No one knows how suffocating those fifteen years were for him!
He saw an invisible ceiling stuck above his head, he saw himself reaching old age and passing away as nothing more than an insignificant low-ranking official.
The feeling of powerlessness and despair engulfed his body and mind, nearly shattering his fighting spirit.
However, just in this dark hopelessness, a ray of light descended upon him, shattering the ceiling that locked him, allowing him to see a brand-new world, an infinitely bright future.
Gazing at the tall and handso young man in front of him, Yan Yunsheng seed to find the aning of his existence, a trace of fervor and devotion in his eyes.
Aware of a subtle resonance between Yan Yunsheng’s soul and his own, Zhu Haomiao squinted his eyes strangely.
It seems... after cultivating the [Constant Star lting Furnace Body Tempering Technique], the cultivator would naturally feel closeness towards himself, and as their power deepens, this closeness could even evolve into worship, even... faith!
Completely abandoning the idea of putting this cultivation technique in the [Yanhuang Armory] to collect patent fees, Zhu Haomiao sighed helplessly, then his thoughts turned.
Forget it, on the bright side, he gained another way of anchoring faith.
And at the sa ti, he could cultivate his own forces!
This is very important for the descenders who follow the "playacting thod," because often, those blessed by the Heavenly Dao cannot break the situation through force.
There must be a grand reason, along with a large and powerful following.
That way, they can stand on righteousness!
In the na of acting on behalf of heaven, to execute justice and punish evil!
Thinking to this point, Zhu Haomiao moved his thoughts and asked with implied aning.
"During this period, haven’t people been bothering you a lot?"
Understanding the implication of the young man’s words, Yan Yunsheng’s face imdiately looked like he had eaten a bitter lon.
"Indeed, we’re all brothers who have faced life and death together, seeing my changes, it’s impossible for them not to have thoughts..."
Then imdiately, Yan Yunsheng straightened his face and solemnly promised.
"But please rest assured, sir, I know the importance of this secret and will never disclose the cultivation technique you taught !"
Hearing these words, Zhu Haomiao blinked strangely, smiled gently, and said.
"I am not one to hoard treasure, if a subordinate is truly talented, determined, and has made great contributions, I have never shied away from rewards!"
In Yan Yunsheng’s astonished gaze, Zhu Haomiao patted his shoulder.
"The [Constant Star lting Furnace Body Tempering Technique] has a total of six layers, set a protocol where accumulating a certain amount of rits can exchange for one layer of the cultivation technique."
"That way, the people below will have hope too..."
Listening to these heartfelt words, Yan Yunsheng was greatly shaken, only feeling that the not-so-burly fra of the young man seed imnsely majestic, like a towering peak, making him look up in admiration with sincere conviction.
Yan Yunsheng had seen many stingy people who guarded their cultivation techniques more jealously than their lives, unwilling to even teach their own children!
And the [Constant Star lting Furnace Body Tempering Technique] taught to him by Li Lin, its power is so formidable and its concept so profound, it could only be compared to the Divine Skill of a prestigious sect or a Royal Secret.
To ordinary people, the latter two are like unreachable moons and suns in the sky, not to be touched, and even thinking about it is a cri!
But now, Inspector Li was selflessly sharing this level of supre divine skill, Yan Yunsheng was overwheld with sha by his broad and generous spirit.
Originally, Yan Yunsheng wasn’t soone who would want to weld the door shut once on board, but the [Constant Star lting Furnace Body Tempering Technique] was so powerful it prompted a bit of selfishness in him.
Now, under the unparalleled charismatic influence of the young man, Yan Yunsheng’s little bit of selfishness was exposed like a grub in a gutter, making him blush with sha and wish he could sink into the ground.
"Sir, on behalf of all the brothers in the Anti-theft Bureau, I thank you for your great kindness and virtue!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Haomiao rely smiled without speaking, encouragingly patting Yan Yunsheng’s shoulder, turning around to leave.
Behind him, Yan Yunsheng watched the tall back, disregarding his cracking wounds, prostrating on the ground in a grand gesture of reverence.
......
Returning to the [Pingyang Marquis Mansion], upon entering, a frantic maid seed to see a savior, rushing up to report.
"Young master, soone mysteriously delivered a lot of food, it looks quite expensive!"
As the only young and clever servant left in the [Pingyang Marquis Mansion], the maid was in charge of the remaining little funds in the mansion, seeing these expensive ingredients, she wasn’t delighted at all, instead fearfully anxious.
The bit of money in her hand wasn’t even enough to buy a fraction of these ingredients!
Watching the maid nearly in tears, Zhu Haomiao couldn’t help but smile and reassured gently.
"Don’t panic, those are gifted to , no paynt needed."
"Huh?!"
"No huh, where’s the stuff? I’m hungry."
"Oh, oh, it’s all placed in the back kitchen."
The maid snapped back and quickly led Zhu Haomiao to the back kitchen.
"Here’s the list, young master."
"Mm."
Taking the list and glancing at it, Zhu Haomiao imdiately understood.
A mature Green Bull, with its insides and head removed, the most pristine thousand jin of bones and flesh were sent over.
Additionally, there was a three-hundred-year-old ginseng, eight Jade Dew Fruits, and a segnt of Ghost Cry Vine.
Just the main ingredients for the special dicinal al [Qilin Soup]!
Wilson even thoughtfully attached the brewing thod for the [Qilin Soup].
"Go bring the biggest cookware in the mansion."
Reading the dicinal al recipe in his hand, Zhu Haomiao instructed without raising his head.
"Yes, young master."
The maid followed the order and soon ca back, struggling to drag a large pot inside.
"Young master, this is the biggest pot in the mansion."
Glancing at the pot big enough for an ordinary person to take a bath in, Zhu Haomiao also glanced at the beef sealed in azure ice, piled up like a small mountain, and slightly frowned.
"One isn’t enough, do we have more pots like this?"
"Oh, there’s one more!"
At its peak, the [Pingyang Marquis Mansion] had over a hundred servants, alongside hosting banquets for distinguished guests from ti to ti, the kitchen had seven or eight different stoves, not lacking large-capacity cookware.
Soon, they lit fires under three stoves. Zhu Haomiao filled the smallest stove pot with water, throwing in the pitch-black, coarse Ghost Cry Vine.
Woo woo woo~
Before the water in the large pots on the other two stoves even started steaming, the small pot’s water had already begun boiling.
A faint black color seeped from the Ghost Cry Vine’s surface, rising with the boiling bubbles into the air, the gurgling water sound gradually twisted into an eerie crying wail.
Knowing beforehand that anomalies occur when processing Ghost Cry Vine, yet seeing this scene with his own eyes, Zhu Haomiao couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.
