Systemless Villain

Chapter 94 Awakening

Long Tian hurried to Li Yue'er's room, swung the door open, and found her standing there, looking bewildered.

She appeared markedly different from her former self, her once-black hair now entirely silver.

"You've finally regained consciousness, Li Yue'er. I've always wondered why every time something happens to you, you end up unconscious," Long Tian remarked.

"Was I unconscious for that long?" Li Yue'er inquired.

"Just a few days," Long Tian replied. "Well, waking up after such a period might feel uncomfortable. Are you okay?" he asked.

"I... I think I need a bath," Li Yue'er responded.

Long Tian nodded, and with that, Li Yue'er made her way to the bathroom, while Long Tian headed to the living room.

-------------------

Not long after, Ling Han suddenly approached.

"Young Master, someone wanted to meet you. His name is Feng Yuhao," he informed.

One of Long Tian's eyebrows lifted in recognition. Then, he suddenly recalled that he had placed a bet with Feng Yuhao a few days ago.

"I'll meet him," he said, and then left the room.

Outside the villa, Feng Yuhao stood in front of the gate, and as soon as the guards spotted Long Tian, they opened the gate.

"Feng Yuhao, It's been a while. I recall telling you that you had three days to provide the technique and the high-grade spiritual stones. How many days have passed now?" Long Tian inquired, crossing his arms.

"For the blue flame technique might be easy, but your request is outrageous. 1000 high-level spiritual stones... I genuinely can't fulfill that," Feng Yuhao replied, his expression gloomy.

"Oh, even after all this time, you still wish to negotiate?" Long Tian asked, his tone icy, accompanied by a domineering aura.

"That's... I can only give you 500. I had to persuade my father and even sneak them from the treasure room," Feng Yuhao replied, handing a spatial ring to Long Tian.

Long Tian accepted the ring and stowed it away. "500, huh? Alright, but you must also provide me with 200 million Yuan," Long Tian said.

Feng Yuhao's expression remained grim, but he responded, "Give me your account number."

Long Tian grinned and provided his account number. He knew his request was outragerous, but he was quite satisfied with 500 high-level spiritual stones. Additionally, the 200 million Yuan would contribute to the investment funds for the development of the Tianjia Pavilion.

After confirming that 200 million Yuan had been transferred to his account, Long Tian smiled. "It's been a pleasure betting with you, Feng Yuhao. If you ever want to bet again, I'd gladly accept," he said, though his tone was playful.

Feng Yuhao's expression remained dark. "I'm not foolish enough to make the same mistake again," he replied.

Without waiting for Long Tian's response, he immediately left the villa.

Long Tian understood Feng Yuhao's frustration but didn't dwell on it. He didn't enter the villa but proceeded to the spacious field in the backyard.

He had just obtained the Blue Flame technique from Feng Yuhao and wanted to test it out.

Taking it from his spatial ring, it was a thin book with Chinese characters on the cover. He opened it, revealing a page with a depiction of blue flame.

Learning a spiritual technique or training method in this world differs from typical cultivation novels. Here, each technique possesses its essence, which practitioners can absorb it, enabling them to train in it.

Long Tian focused his attention, examining the depiction of the blue flame. Slowly, he started to perceive an illusion of the blue flames flickering.

After a few seconds, the depiction of the blue flame began to emit a gentle, soft blue glow. A thin aura also emerged and was absorbed by him.

Long Tian closed his eyes, allowing the essence of the technique to flow into his mind. Absorbing essence wasn't an easy task; it also required cultivation talent. The higher one's cultivation talent, the faster they could absorb essence.

Long Tian had exceptionally high talent, and in just a few seconds, he had fully absorbed the essence of the Blue Fire technique.

"This is my first time experiencing this. Not bad," he said, a thin smile on his face.

He then reopened the book and saw basic punching and attacking movements accompanied by the blue flame.

Placing the book on the ground, Long Tian assumed a stance and executed the punch according to the book's instructions.

The first punch produced no effect, neither did the second or third. But on the fourth punch, a faint wisp of smoke appeared.

Long Tian didn't stop there and continued to repeat the movement.

First punch, second punch, third punch, and fourth punch – blue fire manifested on his arms. Long Tian grinned; his talent was so high that he could quickly learn the Feng family's Blue Flame technique.

He didn't waste time and practiced more intensively.

----------------

As time passed swiftly, the moon ascended the sky, casting its gentle glow, while stars adorned the velvety night canvas.

Empowered by his Galaxy Dantian, Long Tian felt a surge in his strength and comprehension merely basking in the radiance of the stars.

Whooosh!

A whirlwind of blue fire appeared from his movement, heading towards a wooden dummy and engulfing it in flames.

Not stopping there, Long Tian punched forward, and the blue fire shot towards the wooden dummy.

Bang!

The wooden dummy was instantly reduced to splinters.

Long Tian grinned, thoroughly satisfied with his progress in mastering the technique. The Blue Fire technique was a high-level technique that required a lot of understanding and hours of practice. Yet, he had learned it in just one hour. He wasn't fully proficient with it yet; more practice was required for that.

Shen Yulan, who was inside the jade, was also impressed with Long Tian's talent. She started to doubt whether she should return to Qin Chen or not.

Meanwhile, Long Tian turned and saw Li Yue'er standing not far from him.

"Want to practice together?" he asked.

"May I?" Li Yue'er inquired.

"Of course, come here," Long Tian said.

Hearing this confirmation, Li Yue'er walked towards Long Tian.

"This is the Blue Fire technique. Have you ever practiced a spiritual technique before?" Long Tian inquired.

"No, this is my first encounter with one," Li Yue'er replied.

"Then, I'll guide you," Long Tian offered, sporting a confident smile.

He motioned for her to join him. "Come here, sit beside me," he directed.

Li Yue'er complied with Long Tian's instructions, taking a seat next to him. Long Tian opened the technique and displayed the depiction of the blue fire.

"Observe and focus," Long Tian advised.

Li Yue'er fixed her gaze on the portrayal of the blue fire, and with each passing moment, it seemed to become more tangible to her.

After a few seconds, a faint blue aura seemed to manifest and was absorbed by her.

Li Yue'er found herself taken aback, sensing an increasing comprehension and a mysterious power entering her body.

Long Tian was equally astonished. Li Yue'er's ability to absorb the technique's essence was remarkably swift, nearly matching his own.

"Long Tian, I feel an unusual power coursing through me. Does this mean I've succeeded?" Li Yue'er inquired, her curiosity piqued.

"You've passed the initial phase. Now, it's time for the real training," he declared, rising to his feet. "Follow me, and I'll guide you."

Li Yue'er nodded and stood up, ready to follow Long Tian's lead.

----------------

Time flew by, and more than an hour had elapsed. In the backyard, Long Tian and Li Yue'er were still present.

Long Tian was taken aback by Li Yue'er's talent. She exhibited remarkable skill, and her comprehension was exceptionally high. Since he began instructing her over an hour ago, she had already grasped the Blue Fire technique and was now practicing it independently.

Every move she made was accompanied by the soft blue flames. The flames appeared subdued due to her relatively low cultivation level, which only the Body Tempering Realm.

At this moment, she struck a wooden dummy, creating an explosion that left the dummy charred.

Sweat trickled down her forehead, yet she felt thoroughly content with her progress. She also felt grateful for Long Tian's guidance.

Turning towards Long Tian, she sported a smile and inquired, "How was that?"

"You truly didn't disappoint me. However, there's room for improvement in your cultivation. It seems that, from now on, you should concentrate on enhancing your cultivation," Long Tian responded.

"Yes, I share the same sentiment," Li Yue'er concurred.

Long Tian nodded and continued, "I believe today's practice is enough. It's time for some practical experience."

"What do you mean?" Li Yue'er queried.

"We're heading to the border between China and the Great Yuan Empire," Long Tian revealed.

Li Yue'er wasn't sure about their purpose there, but she nodded in agreement.

With that, they made their way back to the villa.

----------------

Inside his car, Long Tian was driving, with Li Yue'er sitting beside him. This would be a long journey as they were headed to the border between China and the Great Yuan Dynasty.

Their destination wasn't for leisure, of course. The border area consisted of an expansive forest where bandits and criminals often established outposts.

It was a suitable place for practicing the art of combat and killing.
