Li Shin was now standing alone after Xia Xiang had left. He rushed into the old house on the back hill and shut the door behind him.
Li Shin took out the body refining pill he had received in exchange for removing the poison from the Shui Empire's young lady earlier.
The milky white pill rolled on top of his palm, and Li Shin swallowed it without hesitation.
Glup!
Li Shin immediately sat down and absorbed the body refining pill after swallowing it. His handsome face appears calm while also making him appear wise.
Without Li Shin's knowledge, his sea of consciousness was currently experiencing a whirlpool of panic. The sword soul of birth was blazing and had unexpectedly improved Li Shin's body structure.
Unbeknownst to them, time had passed and the sun had vanished from the sky. The cold night had arrived, but Li Shin was unconcerned because he was completely immersed in his cultivation.
The following day. The sun hung in the sky, but Li Shin, who was still immersed in his cultivation, was unafraid to grow stronger.
Duaar!
Li Shin had finally surpassed the five-star martial beginner realm. He slowly opened his eyes again, his mouth corners lifting to form a bright smile.
"Unfortunately, body refining pills only have one advantage. My cultivation luck has improved!" With a shake of his head, Li Shin stated.
What Li Shin desired was to gain strength as quickly as possible. You will be able to achieve your goal in this manner. However, there was nothing he could do for the time being because he was severely limited in resources.
"What should I do next to improve my strength?" Only a long sigh could be heard from Li Shin.
"Young master, are you inside?" said Xia Xiang just then.
"Come on in."
Xia Xiang must have been overjoyed to hear Li Shin's voice. He couldn't sleep last night because he was too excited. At the same time, he was terrified at the prospect of Li Huo's father speaking up and making things difficult for the young master in retaliation.
But once Li Shin was inside, he felt relieved and quickly handed over the food he had brought. Xia Xiang cooked it early in the morning to ensure the best flavor.
"Young master, you must complete it!" With a smile, Xia Xiang said.
"Of course!" says one.
The food was plentiful, but it was nothing to Li Shin. Furthermore, he had just had a breakthrough, which made him determined to finish all of the food in front of him.

Simultaneously, in comparison to the warm and pleasant atmosphere of the back hill. The eastern Li family residence is currently experiencing a gloomy atmosphere.
"Our master sincerely apologizes for being ineffective!" Said the two lackeys who returned Li Huo.
After dropping Li Huo off in his room last night. They couldn't sleep because they were terrified to death.
Who wouldn't be terrified when confronted with Li Hai's room, knowing that his son's cultivation had been hampered?
A cultivator is highly respected in this world, where the strong oppress the weak. If one's cultivation base is lost, one becomes an ordinary human, is suppressed, and, worst of all, becomes trash.
"Hmph! You're fine, but my son has lost his cultivation. "Could you please tell me who did it?" Li Hai was enraged, his veins visible as he spoke loudly.
"The perpetrator, third young master!" With cold sweat running down their backs, the two said.
Li Hai soon remembered his nephew, who had become trash. He had previously poisoned Li Shin in order to cripple his cultivation and had learned that Li Shin had chosen to leave the Li family residence out of shame.
"Are you referring to Li Shin?" Li Hai inquired coldly.
"Yes, sir, we saw it firsthand." Answer both confidently.
It must be difficult to believe that the third young master, known as trash, could cause Li Huo to lose his cultivation.
"Useless!" Enraged, Li Hai charged up to the two lackeys and immediately crippled their cultivations.
In his opinion, if his son lost his cultivation, the two lackeys in front of him would have to feel the same, if not worse.
Aahhh!
Bammm!
The two lackeys who had lost their cultivation bases were whimpering in agony and coughing up blood several times before collapsing unconscious.
When Li Shin didn't cripple their cultivation, the two of them were overjoyed. But who would have guessed that Li Hai would personally sabotage their respective crops?
Soon after, Li Hai left, intending to meet with Patriarch Li to discuss his son's justice.

Li Shin actually finished everything in front of him. He was extremely hungry after experiencing a cultivation breakthrough.
"..." Xia Xiang, who was sitting there, could only stare at Li Shin, dumbfounded.
"Many thanks for the food!"
"Xia Xiang, do you have any information that is the topic of conversation for everyone in Changxia City?" Li Shin asked his personal servant.
Xia Xiang paused before explaining, "Um? If I'm not mistaken, the Alchemist Association is currently paying a visit to someone quite well-known."
"Alchemist Society?!" Li Shin had intended to visit there, but who could have predicted such a coincidence?
"Can you elaborate, Xia Xiang?"
"Well!." Xia Xiang nodded and then explained what he had learned.
General Kong Lu of the Shui Empire has arrived at the Alchemist Association on purpose for an unknown reason. Many people predicted that General Kong Lu would step down as supreme commander of the Shui Empire army.
However, no one understood why he had come to such a remote town or why he had chosen to visit the Alchemist Association. So many people want to please him so that they can make connections.
"Young master, I just got this information last night, and it's gotten almost everyone in Changxia City talking!" Xia Xiang proudly exclaimed, his chest puffed out, that he had obtained the information.
"You may return, Xia Xiang." "I will keep cultivating!" With a smile, Li Shin said.
Xia Xiang nodded and then left, indicating that she had no suspicions.
Li Shin was still sitting there, but his face was solemn. No one could understand what he was thinking at the time, but Li Shin recalled General Kong Lu.
"General Kong Lu!"
Li Shin's eyes immediately lit up. "I remember now, General Kong Lu will die ten days after he declared retirement, and the reason he visited the Alchemist Association was to try to find healing for his internal injuries," he seemed to recall correctly.
Of course, Li Shin benefited greatly from this situation because he was able to establish contact with General Kong Lu and gain support.
