Chapter 1061 Mystery
"Where's Lao Yuan?"
Seeing that Feng Ji and Ba Long were the only ones in the room, Jiang Xiaochuan turned and asked Ba Long.
Baron scratched his head, chuckled, and said, "I don't know what this old sly fellow is up to. He's been hiding in his room, claiming he's in seclusion."
"In my opinion, he must have been tossing around prostitutes the past two days and indulging himself in excessive sexual activity, which damaged his body and damaged his foundation, haha..."
The nickname "Old Sly" was Baron's private nickname for Yuan Kaitai.
At the beginning, Ba Long was very respectful to Yuan Kaitai, but after getting to know him, he found that this old man was always unruly. After they became familiar with each other, he dared to tease him.
But he didn't dare say this in front of Yuan Kaitai.
"is it?"
Jiang Xiaochuan glanced towards the door and said jokingly, "I think he doesn't dare to come see me."
"Bullshit! Who dares to see you, kid?"
Before he could finish his words, the door was suddenly pushed open with a bang, and Yuan Kaitai rushed in with his neck stiffened.
His old face was slightly flushed and his eyes were wandering. It was obvious that he had been wandering outside the door for a long time and had prepared himself mentally before showing up.
Being locked in Jiang Xiaochuan's gaze, Yuan Kaitai felt uncomfortable all over and immediately shifted his focus, glaring at Baron:
"You big fool! How dare you give me such an ugly nickname? I've wasted all my time taking you out to broaden your horizons!"
Baron knew Yuan Kaitai wasn't really angry, so he replied with a grin, "What a world you've taken me to! Those delicate women are not even worth a punch from me."
"If you really want to, take me to find some masters to learn from next time. That's what we call the world!"
"Bah! Reckless man!"
Yuan Kaitai rolled his eyes and said, "Fighting and killing is nothing compared to..."
He suddenly stopped talking and caught a glimpse of Jiang Xiaochuan walking towards him.
"Old Yuan,"
Jiang Xiaochuan's voice was calm and somewhat terrifying. "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Kaitai's expression suddenly changed, his face instantly became extremely bitter, and he looked at Jiang Xiaochuan angrily.
He knew that Jiang Xiaochuan must have known about his drunken gaffe, otherwise he wouldn't have asked. He knew he couldn't hide it anymore.
After two dry coughs, Yuan Kaitai's eyes were erratic: "This... boy, the wine that day was too strong. I only drank three cups and..."
Just as he was about to say that, he suddenly realized what was happening and quickly defended himself, "No! It's all because I haven't touched a drop of alcohol in the past few months to protect your female confidantes. My alcohol tolerance has declined! Otherwise, how could that guy have gotten the words out of me?"
Jiang Xiaochuan shook his head helplessly. He had wanted to take this opportunity to criticize him, but he didn't expect that the old man's shamelessness was getting better day by day. He could only smile faintly and said, "I don't mean to blame you. On the contrary, I have to thank you."
Yuan Kaitai's eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost: "Boy, are you angry and confused?"
"No time for jokes."
Jiang Xiaochuan's heart sank, and he said slowly, "If you hadn't leaked the news that I could make pills to the Huangfu family, I might be a corpse now!"
Then, Jiang Xiaochuan explained in detail the agreement between him and Huangfu Jingzhai.
Ba Long was the first to react. He slapped Yuan Kaitai on the back with his palm as big as a palm fan. "Old naughty boy, I didn't expect you to hit the jackpot!"
Yuan Kaitai was knocked off balance by the slap, but he rarely refrained from retorting. He stroked his beard and smiled awkwardly, secretly glad that things did not seem to be developing in the worst direction.
"Mr. Feng,"
Jiang Xiaochuan turned to Feng Ji and introduced them, "Yuan Kaitai and Ba Long are both my close friends. You should keep communicating with me in the future."
"Haha, my name is Baron, and I'm just a rough guy who practices boxing!"
Ba Long smiled kindly at Feng Ji. Anyone who was chosen by Jiang Xiaochuan and called here must be no ordinary person.
Yuan Kaitai came over and looked Feng Ji up and down. He had also been in the capital, so naturally he had heard of Feng Ji's name.
Yuan Kaitai was not surprised that Jiang Xiaochuan was able to recruit Feng Ji.
After all, he had heard about the methods used by the head of the Peng family. If he were Feng Ji, he would have probably found another way out long ago.
"That old fellow from the Peng family is notorious for being mean and ungrateful. It's a cause for celebration that you were able to pull yourself out of this quagmire."
Yuan Kaitai said half-jokingly.
Feng Ji smiled bitterly and bowed as a greeting.
Jiang Xiaochuan interrupted their pleasantries: "Let's talk about the past later. Improving our strength is the key right now."
As he spoke, he skillfully flipped his palm, and three round and plump pills emitting a faint halo appeared in his hand.
When they saw the pills, the three of them's eyes lit up immediately, and Baron couldn't help swallowing, his eyes full of desire.
Jiang Xiaochuan distributed the pills to them one by one, and the three of them did not hesitate.
According to what Jiang Xiaochuan said just now, the current situation is urgent and it is all for the better. We should improve our strength as much as possible at this time.
Immediately, the three of them swallowed the pills without hesitation, found a place, and sat cross-legged.
Feng Ji was the first to react. He groaned and his face flushed abnormally.
His hands formed seals quickly like a phantom, and a faint white light began to appear around his body.
Baron's situation is even more horrifying.
The muscles all over his body undulated like surging waves, and the blue veins bulged out like a coiled dragon.
Because he took too many pills during this period, the medicinal power accumulated in his meridians.
At this moment, the effects of the new and old medicines collided with each other, causing his face to distort, his teeth to clatter, and beads of sweat the size of beans to roll down his forehead.
The most surprising one was Yuan Kaitai.
The old man who usually laughs and scolds now looks solemn, his long gray hair moves in the wind, and a light air current surrounds his body.
However, Jiang Xiaochuan didn't expect him to make a breakthrough.
After all, he has only recently entered the late Grandmaster stage, so it's good enough that he can touch the threshold of a higher realm.
Standing between the three people, Jiang Xiaochuan vigilantly observed the condition of each person. Seeing that their auras had become calmer, he gradually felt relieved.
With this pill as a foundation, once they refine the real realm-breaking pill, the chances of the three of them improving their realm will be greatly increased.
After confirming that the three people were fine, Jiang Xiaochuan also took out a pill.
With his mysterious skills of "The Immortal and Demonic Sutra" and the assistance of Dragon Jade, he did not need to rely on elixirs to break through.
However, the previous breakthrough in the car was accidentally interrupted, and now it was just the right time to use this low-level breakthrough pill to complete it in one fell swoop.
Jiang Xiaochuan threw the pill into his mouth and sat cross-legged.
As soon as the pill entered the stomach, a torrent of heat like a volcanic eruption suddenly exploded from the dantian and quickly spread throughout the body along the meridians.
Jiang Xiaochuan's heart trembled, and he immediately practiced the "Immortal and Demonic Talisman" technique.
The next moment, all the pores on his body dilated, greedily absorbing the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth.
In a trance, Jiang Xiaochuan felt that he had returned to the mysterious state he was in in the car before.
