Chu Li acted like he was confused. “Why don’t you disapprove?”

Zhou Xun replied dismissively, “As person living in this world, you can’t avoid having feelings of gratitude and resentment, if a martial artist must restrain himself all the time, be afraid to kill an enemy he’s perfectly capable of killing and is not allowed to express his gratitude or hatred, then would he still have a martial artist’s spirit? Without a martial artist’s heart, it’s difficult for a person to cultivate profound martial arts, only a person with no fear can move forward bravely!”

Chu Li read his true thoughts.

The best way for a genius to get his name out was to use another genius as a stepping stone, or better yet, by stepping on top of all other geniuses and climb to the top to become a legendary genius.

As a person who recommended a legendary genius to the Holy Church of Light, Zhou Xun would reap an unimaginable amount of benefits.

If Chu Li really happened to be a legendary genius, Zhou Xun would then be able to leave Three Wonders Clan and join the Holy Church of Light’s branch.

For any Holy Church of Light reserved disciples, it was the ultimate glory and dream to be able to re-enter the Holy Church of Light and become the Holy Church of Light’s official disciple.

There were two ways to become a Holy Church of Light disciple, one was by being trained with the Holy Church’s foundational studies from young then exiting the church to be toughened by the outside world. However, one would not be the Holy Church’s true disciple after this but merely a reserved disciple.

Only after one was thoroughly toughened would he be able to become an official disciple.

Being an official disciple meant unrivaled glory, an infinite amount of money to spend and an endless source of martial arts studies to learn. One would not lack anything in life and only needed to focus on cultivating martial arts—this was what truly living in this world looked like, this was how one would not waste their time on earth.

The other way the Holy Church of Light recruited their disciples was by elevating the status of talented disciples. However, such disciples were rare because they needed to have top-notch innate talents but must not have achieved Innate Mastery’s Boundary.

Zhou Xun knew that Feng Changwen was a talented disciple as such and had already learned the Holy Church of Light’s foundational heart technique, so once he became a Grandmaster, he would be able to become an official Holy Church of Light Disciple.

By that time, Feng Xi would also receive recognition as the person who recommended Feng Changwen and would be able to enter Quartet Clan or Five Elements Clan.

If Feng Changwen was a legendary genius, then Feng Xi could re-enter the Holy Church of Light’s branch and become an official disciple.

Similarly, if Zhao Dahe was a legendary genius, Zhou Xun could enjoy the same benefits and one must be able to eliminate all the other geniuses to become a legendary genius—that was why Feng Changwen was the best stepping stone there was.

Once Chu Li fully understood Zhou Xun’s thoughts, he was determined.

“Commander, I want to find Feng Changwen.”

“I’ve already inquired about his whereabouts, Feng Changwen is in Isolated Cultivation in Commander Feng’s residence and would not leave the place before reaching perfected innate master’s boundary.”

Chu Li scowled. “Perfected innate master’s boundary... How long would that take! Is there any way to lure him out and let me kill him with a single slash?”

“I’ll try to figure something out,” Zhou Xun replied.

Chu Li piped up. “I heard that this fella is a pervert!”

He also did his research about Feng Changwen’s background, he was a talented person.

However, everyone had their weaknesses and for Feng Changwen, his biggest characteristic was being a pervert; he loved beautiful women and could not live without them.

With good looks, high status and talented at sweet-talking, Feng Changwen had many lovers in Peace Town—this was a publicly known fact.

“Oh...?” A thoughtful look appeared on Zhou Xun’s face as he nodded. “I’ll find a way.”

Chu Li nodded in return.

...

Feng Changwen had been in Isolated Cultivation for ten days and had vented enough.

He felt like he had reached his limit and needed to relax—completely relax—to be able to continue with vigor, if he were to continue in this state, he would definitely snap.

However, his uncle had tight surveillance on him, it was not easy to get out.

He made good use of his unique advantage and charmed two maids but although these maids were pretty and had delicate features, they did not fit his taste. He was very picky about the type of woman he liked.

Luo State City was a big and busy city, the beauties in the brothel here were at a level beyond Peace Town’s reach, each of them graceful, elegant and flirtatious, unlike Peace Town’s uncouth country girls.

After having dinner with his uncle in the evening, Feng Changwen snuck out of the residence with the help of the two maids and entered a famous brothel in Luo State City—Delight Brothel.

Delight Brothel was four-stories high and was magnificently and lushly decorated. With the bright red lanterns hung high amid the scenic dusk view, Delight Brothel was like an imperial palace in the sky that made anyone standing beneath it feel small.

When Feng Changwen saw the majestic brothel, he got so excited he could feel his pores on his body open wide.

The women in such a brothel would definitely be wonderful. He impatiently entered the brothel and immediately threw ten taels of silver at the servant who came up to serve him.

The servant had delicate features and was pleasing to his eye, Feng Changwen noticed as he caught the silver and brought him inward to a room on the second floor.

Feng Changwen frowned. “I want to go to the highest floor!”

The servant replied respectfully, “Master, going up to the second floor costs ten taels of silver while the third floor costs a hundred taels and the fourth floor, a thousand taels. Since it’s your first time visiting our brothel, you don’t have to rush to go up to the top floor, you can start from the bottom.”

“Then I’ll go to the third floor.” Feng Changwen frowned.

“Alright.” The servant brought him to a room on the third floor and smiled. “This room belongs to Miss Zhi Yan. Please enter, Young Master.”

Feng Changwen let out a satisfied smile and tossed another ten taels to him.

After thanking him, the servant came to a room on the second floor, changed his clothes and exited Delight Brothel with ease.

Feng Changwen pushed open the doors and found a cozy suite that had a living room, a study room to its left and a bedchamber to its right.

At this moment, a round table in the living room was already filled with dishes that smelled and looked good as if it was expecting a guest.

A graceful young lady was sitting in front of a desk by the window as she read a book under faint candlelight.

She was clad in a lavender gown, her beautiful face was delicate like porcelain just as her almond eyes, feathery brows, and dainty nose were exquisite as she lazily lowered her book and glanced over.

“Nice to meet you, Young Master.” She stood up and curtsied.

Feng Changwen was completely mesmerized by her elegant movements and her lovely looks. He was instantly satisfied, he felt like the hundred taels of silver was not spent in vain.

“Young Master, let’s have some food first.” Miss Zhi Yan invited warmly.

Although Feng Changwen already had his dinner, he was honestly not full from having to share food with his uncle, so he nodded and stepped up to take Zhi Yan’s small hand.

However, Zhi Yan smoothly avoided his touch.

They sat across each other as Zhi Yan poured him wine and handed him the cup with her bare hands.

Feng Changwen took a whiff of her faint aroma and was in total ecstasy as he chuckled. “This isn’t poisoned, right?”

Zhi Yan gave him a tight smile and downed the shot.

Feng Changwen smiled, he was pleased.

He was pleased with how cautious he was at this moment and how he managed to remain alert despite being completely entranced by the girl, this truly was a rare situation.

Nevertheless, the only person hunting him down was Zhao Dahe.

In this case, judging by Zhao Dahe’s personality, the only thing he would do to Feng Changwen was to ambush him by the streets with his long blade, he would never think of poisoning Feng Changwen’s wine.

Plus, no one knew of his whereabouts and his escape was a spontaneous decision, it was impossible that Zhao Dahe would have enough time to plan and lie in ambush so actually, Feng Changwen did not need to be so cautious.

He then took the silver cup, had a sip and uttered a short compliment on the wine quality before drinking the rest.

Miss Zhi Yan exchanged a few words with him, her voice was soft and her mannerisms were graceful as she asked where he was from and whether he practiced martial arts. They had another two glasses of wine as they spoke.

“Boom!” A heavy thump rang out as Chu Li kicked down the doors and charged into the room with his blade held high.

Feng Changwen felt the adrenaline surge through his veins, Chu Li’s murderous intentions made his blood freeze.

He rolled underneath the table towards the window, he just needed to jump out of the window now and he would be able to render Zhao Dahe, who was incapable of using Light-body technique, helpless.
