Chapter 28 Qinglin's Strength Breakthrough!
Several maids carrying tea and snacks passed by in the courtyard, and upon hearing Qinglin's words, they all froze on the spot.
"Did you hear that? Xiao Chen defeated Queen Medusa."
"Really? That's a peak nine-star Dou Huang."
"What Qinglin said himself is probably true."
"My God, just how strong must Xiao Chen be?"
The maids exchanged glances, and both saw shock in each other's eyes.
The news spread throughout the entire mercenary group in no time.
"Have you heard? Xiao Chen defeated Queen Medusa."
"That can't be right."
"The two captains also heard what Qinglin said in person."
"That boy is actually that strong."
"No wonder he wasn't afraid of retaliation from the snake people; he had this confidence."
The mercenaries were talking amongst themselves, their tone shifting from complaints to admiration.
Those mercenaries who had previously suggested kicking Xiao Chen out were now speechless. They wouldn't dare offend the person who defeated Queen Medusa even if they had ten lives.
A young mercenary stood in the crowd, listening to the surrounding discussions with eyes full of admiration.
"If only I had half of Xiao Chen's strength," he muttered to himself.
An older mercenary patted him on the shoulder and sighed.
"Half? You can't even compare to one of their fingers."
The young mercenary didn't say anything, but the admiration in his eyes deepened.
Xiao Ding sat in a chair in the hall, looking at Xiao Chen, his shock still lingering.
He picked up the teacup that the maid brought him again, took a sip, and calmed his nerves.
"Xiao Chen, what level is your current strength?"
-
Xiao Chen looked at him but didn't say anything.
Xiao Ding put down his teacup, stood up, walked over to Xiao Chen, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Amazing, truly amazing."
He knew Xiao Chen was talented since he was a child, but he never expected him to be this strong.
Xiao Li also walked over and patted Xiao Chen's shoulder hard.
"Our Xiao family has finally produced a true powerhouse. Compared to you, we are far inferior."
The three of them looked at each other and laughed.
Xiao Ding patted Xiao Chen on the shoulder, his eyes filled with emotion.
"If you need any help in the future, just let me know."
"Don't be so polite with us," Xiao Li said.
Xiao Chen nodded. "Okay."
When Xiao Chen returned to his room that evening, Qing Lin followed behind him.
"Azure Scales".
"Young master, I am here."
"Continue cultivating tonight." Xiao Chen took out the Foundation Establishment Elixir from his pocket and handed it over.
Qinglin took the Foundation Establishment Elixir and blushed slightly. She knew that applying this elixir would require taking off her clothes again, and although she had applied it several times before, she still felt shy every time.
"Young Master, I—" Qing Lin lowered her head and spoke very softly.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Qinglin shook her head.
She took a deep breath and suppressed her shyness.
Xiao Chen didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the room.
Qinglin watched his retreating figure, closed the door, took off her outer clothes, and applied the Foundation Establishment Elixir to her body.
The moment the elixir touched my skin, a cool sensation spread throughout my body.
Qinglin sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate, his fighting spirit flowing through his meridians again and again.
She could clearly feel the fighting spirit within her body slowly increasing; it was a strange feeling, as if something was awakening inside her.
The night passed quickly.
The next morning, Xiao Chen arrived at Qing Lin's room and knocked on the door.
"Come in," Qinglin's voice came from inside.
Xiao Chen pushed open the door and went inside.
Qinglin stood in the middle of the room with an excited smile on her face.
"Young Master, I have broken through."
Xiao Chen glanced at her and nodded; she was a third-level Dou Zhe.
-
Overnight, he advanced from the seventh level of Dou Qi to the third level of Dou Zhe, a full five levels higher.
This speed was even faster than he had expected; no wonder she possessed the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil and the bloodline of the Serpent Clan.
"good."
Qinglin nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with gratitude.
Keep up the good work.
Qinglin looked up at him and nodded vigorously.
"Don't worry, young master, I will definitely not let you down."
Xiao Chen nodded, turned around, and walked out of the room.
Qinglin watched his retreating figure and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
