I Can See Through Everything

Lu Qing and Old Doctor Chen stood in front of the Halfway House, watching the Wei family’s people slowly leave.

After a while, Lu Qing said, "Master, this chief steward of the Wei family is truly formidable."

Lu Qing genuinely admired this chief steward of the Wei family.

From his first encounter with the young master of the Wei family at the Grand Bazaar, Lu Qing had initially thought the Wei family to be an arrogant, domineering family that liked to throw their weight around.

Otherwise, how could their heir have such a personality?

But this chief steward of the Wei family had changed Lu Qing’s impression significantly.

No wonder Mago said that the influence of the Wei family extended throughout the prefecture, reaching even the capital.

One could see it from the methods of this chief steward.

Not to mention the Wei family head who commanded such loyalty.

With such a person in charge, it was difficult for the Wei family not to develop rapidly.

"To hold the position of chief steward in an aristocratic family like the Wei family, one would naturally not be a simple person."

Old Doctor Chen also sighed.

Even he, having lived for most of his life, had rarely seen a person like the chief steward of the Wei family.

Upright and open, knowing that he was winning hearts, yet they still couldn’t refuse.

"Master, what should we do with all this gold and silver?"

Back in the courtyard, Lu Qing looked at the piles of gold and silver and couldn’t help but ask.

The Wei family’s gift of ten thousand taels of silver and one thousand taels of gold was not all in cash.

Aside from a large chest of silver ingots and a small chest of gold ingots, the rest were converted into silver notes and gold notes, placed in another small box.

But even this large chest of gold and silver was enough to dazzle anyone.

It was only because Old Doctor Chen and Lu Qing were extraordinary people; otherwise, an ordinary person seeing these yellow and white objects would have pounced on them by now.

"First, carry them inside and put them away."

Old Doctor Chen also didn’t know how to handle these things for the time being, so he and Lu Qing carried them into the house for storage.

Looking at the large and small chests casually placed in a corner of the storage room, Lu Qing thought to himself.

No one would ever guess that these two chests contained such a large amount of gold and silver.

After casually covering the chests with some miscellaneous items, Lu Qing walked out.

"A Qing, about that bottle of Tendon-Bone Strengthening Pills in your hand, I have something to tell you."

After stepping out of the storage room, Old Doctor Chen spoke with some seriousness.

Lu Qing immediately walked up to his master, listening respectfully.

"The Tendon-Bone Strengthening Pill is indeed a coveted pill for many martial artists at the Tendons and Bones Realm. It can break the limits of those in the Tendons and Bones Realm, expanding their foundation and potential."

"But the medicinal power of this pill is extremely overbearing. Even an ordinary strong person in the Tendons and Bones Realm may not be able to withstand its power."

"So even if you step into the Tendons and Bones Realm in the future, you must not be in a hurry to consume and refine this pill. At least wait until you have achieved minor success in the Tendons and Bones Realm before attempting to refine it."

"Otherwise, consuming it too early, and if you can’t withstand its power, it could burn your bone marrow and blood Qi, leading to death."

Hearing that consuming and refining the Tendon-Bone Strengthening Pill could be so dangerous, Lu Qing’s expression became very solemn: "Yes, Master, I will remember."

After cautioning him about this, Old Doctor Chen waved his hand, "Since you’ve remembered, you can go back now. You’ve been tired these days dealing with the young master of the Wei family. Go back and rest well. You don’t need to come to help me these days."

"Huh?"

Lu Qing was first surprised, then quickly realized seeing the box in his master’s hand.

Master had just obtained a precious scripture and wanted to retreat for focused study.

He didn’t expose his master’s little plan and respectfully said, "Yes, Master."

He also wanted to take some time to focus on his martial arts.

Recently, Lu Qing had been refining one Blood Replenishing and Qi-boosting Pill each day, rapidly increasing his Blood Qi power.

In the past two days, he had faintly felt that he was on the verge of a breakthrough.

Holding the gifts meant for himself and Xiao Yan, Lu Qing walked down the mountain.

Back home, he saw Xiao Yan and Xiao Li playing together.

Since Xiao Li came to their home, having such a playmate, Xiao Yan rarely went out.

She always wanted to play with Xiao Li.

Even the time spent playing with her friends in the village had decreased.

Lu Qing also didn’t want her to linger in front of the Wei family’s chief steward, lest she inadvertently reveal Xiao Li’s existence.

So these days, when he went to the Halfway House, he left Xiao Yan at home.

Anyway, with Xiao Li there, and having instructed Xiao Li to protect Xiao Yan, he was reassured.

This creature was a Red Light Spirit Beast.

Unless they encountered an Internal Organs Realm expert, ordinary martial artists couldn’t do anything to it.

"Brother, you’re back!"

Seeing Lu Qing return, Xiao Yan, who was playing chess with Xiao Li, immediately called out.

Xiao Li also called out to him.

"Yes, I’m back."

Lu Qing put his things back in his room, then came out and saw the chessboard on the table, asking, "Who won more games today?"

The chessboard was made by Lu Qing from a wooden board, carved with a knife.

The chess pieces were also simple, just a box of short wooden sticks and a box of small stones.

As for the chess they played, it was the game of Go-Moku he had taught them.

He had taught them chess because one day, while Lu Qing was studying medical books, these two little ones were playing and making noise in the house, making it impossible for him to concentrate.

Even if he temporarily quieted them, they would soon secretly play again.

To keep them quiet for longer, Lu Qing had an idea and taught them to play chess.

Anyway, Go-Moku wasn’t difficult, and it could also exercise their thinking abilities.

As expected, the two little ones were instantly fascinated by this novel game, even Xiao Li was no exception.

These days, whenever they had time, the two little ones would start a chess match.

As for winning or losing, it was often hard to decide.

Sure enough, it was the same this time.

Xiao Yan said happily, "I won more games today. I won seven games, and Xiao Li only won six!"

Then Lu Qing saw Xiao Li place a small stone on the chessboard with its paw, causing Xiao Yan to immediately look dejected: "Now it’s tied, Xiao Li also won seven games."

This time, Xiao Li was the happy one, its ears moved back, eyes smiling, and tail held high.

Lu Qing: …

These two little ones played like this so much recently, often making his head spin, and it was no wonder.

With their intelligence, they were indeed extraordinary companions.

He decided not to mind them and went to the bamboo forest at the back mountain to practice.

In the following days, because he didn’t need to go to the Halfway House, Lu Qing didn’t go out, focusing on practice in the back mountain.

Feeling he was close to a breakthrough, he even paused his Four Directions Blade practice to concentrate on Health Nourishing Boxing and refining Blood Qi.

Finally, after consuming a few more Blood Replenishing and Qi-boosting Pills, he sensed the breakthrough opportunity one morning.
