Chapter 539: Chapter 135: Break Limit, Terrifying Punch (Vote for Monthly Ticket)
Zhou Family Pharmacy.
Inside the room.
A piece of gold-inlaid jade appeared in Jiang Ning’s hand.
This token represented contribution points from the Inspection Office: one piece of gold-inlaid jade was equivalent to ten thousand contribution points.
“Commander, what is this?!!” Zhou Xing’s face was full of confusion.
He naturally recognized what Jiang Ning held in his hand.
The gold-inlaid jade, valued at ten thousand contribution points.
At the Internal Affairs Office, it could be traded for ten thousand Silver Taels.
But exchanged privately among the lower ranks, it could fetch between fifteen thousand and twenty thousand Silver Taels.
Its value was extrely high.
Jiang Ning said, “Brother Zhou, take this item. These dicinal herbs aren’t enough; I also need you to visit several other pharmacies and purchase so high-year major dicines for , with no limits on their dicinal effects.”
“I don’t have much silver on hand right now, so I’ll use this as paynt. Do you think it’s feasible, Brother Zhou?”
Hearing this, Zhou Xing imdiately composed himself, his expression growing solemn.
“Commander, how about a different condition?”
“What condition do you have in mind, Brother Zhou?” Jiang Ning asked.
Zhou Xing looked at Jiang Ning, then bowed with his hands clasped, suddenly changing his address: “Brother Jiang, I want to follow you.”
“Aren’t you already following , Brother Zhou?” Jiang Ning said.
Zhou Xing shook his head instantly: “Brother Jiang, I’m not talking about that kind of following.”
Then he looked at Jiang Ning again, his expression becoming extrely serious: “To accompany in life and death, to share honor and disgrace!”
“Have you thought it through, Brother Zhou?” Jiang Ning also composed his expression.
“I have thought it through!” Zhou Xing nodded emphatically, bowing to Jiang Ning once more.
Silence ensued for several breaths, and the atmosphere suddenly turned oppressive.
“Very well!” Jiang Ning’s voice suddenly broke the silence.
Hearing this word, the anxiety in Zhou Xing’s heart imdiately fell away.
Deeply binding himself, following Jiang Ning.
He had contemplated this issue for a long ti and thought about it a lot.
He knew it was a major gamble in life.
But how many tis in one’s life does one get the chance to take such a risk?
He was willing to take this chance!
Because he had witnessed Jiang Ning’s growth up to now.
From the first day Jiang Ning joined the Martial Arts Hall, he had witnessed Jiang Ning’s rise every step of the way.
The next mont.
“Your subordinate greets Commander Jiang!” Zhou Xing imdiately knelt on one knee.
“There’s no need for such formality, Brother Zhou!” Jiang Ning said, reached out to grab Zhou Xing’s arm, and effortlessly pulled him to his feet.
“In front of , you don’t need to follow so many intricate protocols!” Jiang Ning spoke again.
Zhou Xing, hearing this, remained composed in his expression.
He addressed Jiang Ning with a bow of his hands: “Commander, I’ll now make the rounds to the other major pharmacies. With the relationships I’ve built up before, it won’t be difficult to acquire their treasured dicinal herbs.”
“Wait a mont, Brother Zhou!” Jiang Ning called out.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing stood in place, looking towards Jiang Ning, waiting for his instructions.
Jiang Ning said, “Brother Zhou, there is a choice I offer you now.”
“Commander, please speak!” Zhou Xing bowed with his hands clasped.
Jiang Ning said, “I have a thod that can quickly enhance your power, but from then on, you will be completely under my control. Are you willing?”
“I couldn’t ask for more!!” Zhou Xing looked at Jiang Ning with extrely determined eyes.
Since he had made the decision, he had no intention of backing down.
Whether Jiang Ning’s words were a ploy to lower his guard or to take control of his life, he was willing to take the risk.
Rembering Jiang Ning’s past, he was ready to stake his life and future once again.
Seeing Zhou Xing’s response, a smile appeared on Jiang Ning’s lips.
The next mont.
“Brother Zhou, please open your mouth!” Jiang Ning said.
Zhou Xing heard and opened his mouth slightly.
Then, Jiang Ning slightly lifted his right hand.
Boom—
An invisible surge of energy erupted from within him, and suddenly, the whole room seed blasted by a fierce wind as tables and chairs trembled.
Under the pressure of the circulating Inner Breath in his right hand, five drops of crimson blood were forced out from his fingertips in an instant.
Then Jiang Ning waved his hand, and the five drops of blood flew towards Zhou Xing’s mouth.
As the five drops of blood entered Zhou Xing’s body, in just a few breaths, his face turned bright red, and his body temperature rose sharply.
“Commander, I’ll take my leave now!” Zhou Xing said, suppressing the discomfort in his body and bowing with his hands clasped.
“Wait!” Jiang Ning flicked his finger, sending the gold-inlaid jade representing ten thousand contribution points from the Inspection Office into Zhou Xing’s hand.
Then he continued, “Take this item. I need all the dicinal herbs from the pharmacies in the city that are over thirty years old, and then I need a quiet room.”
“Yes!” Zhou Xing replied.
He then turned and left.
After a short while.
The father of Zhou Xing reappeared in front of Jiang Ning.
“Commander Jiang, please follow , and I’ll take Commander Jiang to the quiet room that my son, Zhou Xing, regularly uses.”
…
Monts later.
In the quiet room.
Jiang Ning sat cross-legged on the floor alone.
Lv Yi stood guard outside the door for him.
He opened a jade box, which contained a ginseng shaped like a human figure.
He then picked up the Wild Ginseng and threw the whole piece into his mouth. As he chewed, juice overflowed and was absorbed and digested by his body, sending streams of warmth through him, causing his Qi-Blood to boil.
After digesting one ginseng, he opened the next jade box.
Soon, all the jade boxes in front of him were open, and the precious dicinal herbs that had been carefully stored for many years were now entering Jiang Ning’s body.
Sitting cross-legged, he circulated the Qi-Blood within his body, refining the powerful dicinal effects contained in those herbs.
Streams of heat chaoticly coursed through his body, and he felt his Qi-Blood growing, while the Inner Breath in his Dantian also increased steadily.
Wisps of Inner Breath, like smoke and mist, gathered from his Dantian and then rged into the vast ocean of clouds ford by the accumulation of smoke-like Inner Breath.
In the anti.
With his strong digestive ability, the dicinal herbs that entered his stomach were quickly and completely dissolved.
