“Hehe, this is grabbing my fame!”
“Nowadays, the production of Ancient Rock Resin is increasing rapidly, and the demand for the fragrant products has also been established. They are now selling well throughout the Great Fish Dynasty. With such substantial profits, without a Divine Power Realm presence, it’s inevitable that other forces won’t reach out.”
“I was even thinking about finding the right time to reveal my strength, but unexpectedly, this Zhuang Thirteen fell right into my hands. This is perfect; by slaying Zhuang Thirteen, I can further establish my reputation!”
“Go, publicly search for Zhuang Thirteen, find him, and I will personally slay him!”
Yan Jiansheng waved his hand, and the Bloodthirst Sect’s organ-refining elders below began making arrangements.
They were even somewhat excited.
Bloodthirst Sect had been restrained for too long.
Now, a Divine Power Realm martial artist had finally emerged, and the rise of Bloodthirst Sect would be unstoppable!
As for Zhuang Thirteen?
He was just a stepping stone on the path of Bloodthirst Sect’s rise.
Once Bloodthirst Sect’s Sect Master Yan Jiansheng had slain Zhuang Thirteen, the news of Yan Jiansheng, a Divine Power Realm martial artist, would undoubtedly spread rapidly.
With a Divine Power Realm martial artist in charge and the income from Ancient Rock Resin fragrances, the future of Bloodthirst Sect was secure!
Lu Changsheng returned to the courtyard of Miaoshou Garden.
It took quite some effort to return without being noticed, considering that he was carrying such a large package.
After all, he frequently operated at night, and staying in Miaoshou Garden was not very convenient for such activities.
Returning to his room, Lu Changsheng put down the package.
The package was filled to the brim with Ancient Rock Resin, and it even emitted a peculiar fragrance throughout the room, which was not very pleasant.
Unprocessed Ancient Rock Resin could be somewhat foul-smelling.
However, Lu Changsheng didn’t mind.
He picked up the Ancient Rock Resin and began applying it to his entire body using the methods of the Dragon Transformation technique.
Immediately, he felt a refreshing sensation, and his skin started to become subtly reddish.
Then, he activated the Dragon Transformation technique and, over time, he could clearly feel some subtle changes in his body.
His physical strength hadn’t increased, but the Ancient Rock Resin seemed to enhance the flexibility of his body, almost imperceptibly.
And it required a great deal of accumulated time.
Lu Changsheng was overjoyed, and he now understood why Ancient Rock Resin was needed as an auxiliary to enhance the Dragon Transformation technique to the second or even third transformation.
The essence of the Dragon Transformation technique was essentially compressing the body’s strength and focusing it for a powerful burst. However, such an increase in power might be too much for the body to withstand, risking damage to muscles, bones, and skin, even causing muscle tears. With the assistance of Ancient Rock Resin, the entire body became tougher, more flexible, and capable of withstanding more intense power surges, even those two or three times stronger.
“Yes, with the help of Ancient Rock Resin, achieving the second transformation of the Dragon Transformation should be no problem,” Lu Changsheng was quite satisfied.
This kind of transformation was very slow and might take some time, perhaps a month or two. However, it didn’t matter since Lu Changsheng had plenty of time now.
The weather was getting warmer day by day. There were almost no more refugees inside the city, and many of them were busy returning to their farms. Even though the heavy taxes and levies still existed, “Zhuang Thirteen,” who had cleared the gang of the Great Desert Thirteen Riders, had eliminated the bandit threat. Commoners, while exhausted and struggling, no longer had to fear for their lives, making them willing to cultivate their lands.
It seemed like everything was slowly getting better.
During this period, Lu Changsheng had firmly established his position at Miaoren Tang. After months of outpatient consultations, his reputation had gradually spread. Surprisingly, he had surpassed Wang Ruohai and become the “poster child” of Miaoren Tang. Even many patients who came from afar sought out Lu Changsheng specifically for treatment.
Lu Changsheng enjoyed this kind of life. Sometimes, his martial spirit was strong when he was involved in battles in the martial world. However, when he was treating patients, his heart would become very calm.
“You’re going too far!”
At this moment, a commotion could be heard from outside.
Lu Changsheng’s brows furrowed slightly, he didn’t like disturbances while seeing patients.
“Zhang Huan, go and see what’s going on.”
Lu Changsheng instructed Zhang Huan.
“Yes, Doctor Lu.”
Zhang Huan quickly went out and returned shortly, quietly reporting, “Doctor Lu, it’s because the business at the Yixian Inn across the street is bad, and they want to sell it. The Bloodthirst Sect intends to take over, but there’s a significant difference in the price.”
“I inquired closely, the Bloodthirst Sect seems to have some intentions to strong-arm the purchase, offering a price that’s too low. The owner doesn’t want to sell, but the Bloodthirst Sect has made it clear that no one else will dare to buy the inn except for them.”
Lu Changsheng understood. During this time, he had seen the Bloodthirst Sect’s people buy several shops in Nan’yang City to sell their fragrances. Moreover, their behavior had changed from being low-profile to becoming more conspicuous.
“Come, come, everyone, take a look.”
“This person killed the disciples of our Bloodthirst Sect, challenging the Bloodthirst Sect, which has infuriated our Sect Leader.”
“If anyone has seen this person, please notify the Bloodthirst Sect immediately. There’s a reward of one hundred taels of silver!”
At this moment, a group of Bloodthirst Sect members posted a portrait on the wall.
As the crowd grew, so did the discussions.
“Who is this person? He looks quite unfamiliar, and he dares to provoke the Bloodthirst Sect.”
“Ever since the Bloodthirst Sect started selling fragrances, their actions have become more and more audacious, but it seems like even the government doesn’t care.”
“Hehe, why would the government dare to intervene? The Bloodthirst Sect is making a fortune by selling fragrances, they’re rich and powerful, and they also have many martial artists. The government can’t do anything.”
As the people gathered, the Bloodthirst Sect members warned, “Anyone who dares to criticize our Bloodthirst Sect will be ruthlessly killed!”
Immediately, the crowd dispersed.
However, the reputation of the Bloodthirst Sect had taken a hit.
But it seemed like the Bloodthirst Sect wasn’t concerned about their reputation. After all, the Bloodthirst Sect was a martial world power, and their reputation among commoners wasn’t something they cared much about.
Afterward, the Bloodthirst Sect members continued posting portraits in other places.
Lu Changsheng narrowed his eyes; the “Zhuang Thirteen” in the portrait was barely a 50-60% match, obviously drawn based on descriptions.
“The Bloodthirst Sect seems to recognize ‘Zhuang Thirteen’ through my killing methods. However, even though they know it was Zhuang Thirteen who killed their people, they dare to issue a city-wide wanted order. Do they think they’re stronger than the Great Desert Thirteen Riders or do they want to boost their own reputation by defeating ‘Zhuang Thirteen’?”
Lu Changsheng had a rough idea of the Bloodthirst Sect’s intentions.
The Blood thirst Sect had expanded its fragrance sales channels, becoming rich and powerful, and they no longer wanted to remain “low-key.”
They wanted to boost their reputation and what better way than taking down “Zhuang Thirteen” who now had the largest reputation in the entire Nan’yang Prefecture.
“If they want to boost their reputation by defeating ‘Zhuang Thirteen,’ then they’ll get what they wish for…”
Lu Changsheng’s gaze turned cold, and he turned and went back into Miaoren Tang..
