Zhao Ya knew that ng Lei’s claim of spending a fortune to buy it was not an exaggeration.
Because just holding it in his hand, the aura of the Blood Qi Pill made Zhao Ya’s stomach stir, highlighting its preciousness.
This made Zhao Ya feel grateful.
After all, the Escort Agency did not have to invest so much in him.
And his ability to stand in this chaotic world was due to the shelter of the Changlong Escort Agency.
So Zhao Ya took a deep breath and solemnly said, "Thank you, Chief of the Escort, for your nurturing. I will not disappoint."
ng Lei was very satisfied with Zhao Ya’s attitude and smiled, saying, "Good, having this mindset is enough."
ng Lei then encouraged Zhao Ya a bit more before leaving.
After ng Lei left, Zhao Ya examined the Blood Qi Pill for a mont but didn’t rush to consu it. Instead, he carefully placed it in his bosom.
Zhao Ya planned to take it during his evening practice to maximize the effect of the elixir.
That evening, Zhao Ya did not decline the enthusiastic invitations of others. Instead, he paid out of his own pocket to treat his colleagues at the Escort Agency to a good drink.
After a rry return from drinking, Zhao Ya splashed so water on his face to sober up a bit, then began his daily unbreakable routine.
This ti, however, was different; before starting, Zhao Ya swallowed the Blood Qi Pill.
In an instant, Zhao Ya felt as if a fire had ignited in his stomach, causing vigorous Qi Blood to constantly surge.
The Water Valley Essence Talent activated imdiately, almost frenziedly absorbing these essences.
Compared to the Exotic Beast Flesh, the Blood Qi Pill not only contained ample Qi Blood, but it was crucially purer, with much fewer residues and impurities.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Ya felt as if his body had gained a circle of weight, with the abundant Qi Blood even causing a feeling of congestion.
In such a situation, Zhao Ya imdiately began to practice the Eight Vajra Skills.
Hands inserted at the top benefit the Triple Jiao, hands and feet forward and backward stabilize the kidneys and waist, regulating spleen and skin requires single lifting, left liver and right lung as shooting eagles...
As he practiced each movent, Zhao Ya felt the ample Qi Blood flow through his body, nourishing every organ and ridian.
After completing a set of the Eight Vajra Skills, two lines of prompts appeared.
[Eight Vajra Skills proficiency 15]
[Heart Unlock Progress 3%]
Instantly, Zhao Ya felt a profound sense of energy appear in his mind, reaching a new level of understanding of the Eight Vajra Skills.
Simultaneously, his heart function beca stronger, complenting the two, making his Qi Blood completely boil.
Zhao Ya didn’t pause for a mont and imdiately started practicing fist techniques, saber techniques, and lightweight body techniques.
After all the martial arts were practiced, Zhao Ya felt refreshed, with an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
With a thought, the attribute panel opened.
Na: Zhao Ya. Age: 17. Remaining lifespan: 44 ( 38 days) years
Skills: Eight Vajra Skills (Refined Skill 4/5000) Five Tiger Fist (Refined Skill 143/5000) Gale Saber Technique (Refined Skill 12/5000) Lightweight Grasshopper Skill (Mastery 900/2000) Swallow’s Three Dips (Mastery 54/2000)
[Heart Unlock Progress: 31%]
As expected, the Eight Vajra Skills successfully broke through, reaching the realm of Refined Skill.
The Gale Saber Technique also made a breakthrough.
Even his lifespan increased by more than a year.
The gains were abundant.
At this ti, the boiling Qi Blood gradually settled, and Zhao Ya faintly felt that the fascia, which had remained still, also began to tremble slightly.
Though very slight, it proved that Zhao Ya’s practice had finally touched the level of fascia.
When the fascia moves greatly, it will be when Zhao Ya advances to the third realm.
Regarding this, Zhao Ya wasn’t surprised or happy, feeling completely calm.
Every bit of progress stemd from his own unremitting effort.
Even with the aid of the Golden Finger, if he didn’t work hard, it would also be empty talk.
However, Zhao Ya also knew that the reason for such a significant breakthrough this ti was partly due to his accumulation and partly because of taking the Blood Qi Pill for the first ti.
Using the Blood Qi Pill afterward wouldn’t have such a significant effect.
Since then, Zhao Ya could obtain a Blood Qi Pill from the Escort Agency every three days, propelling him to continuously advance with courage, not daring to slacken for a mont.
Another month passed, with Zhao Ya practicing martial arts in the courtyard.
With fists like flying wind, a blade like a swift stream, and a body like a startled swan, it was dazzling to behold.
This month passed very fulfilling for Zhao Ya, and the vibration of his fascia beca increasingly evident.
Yet the progress in martial arts inevitably slowed.
The most significant gain was the heart unlock progress successfully breaking through 50%.
Reaching this progress, Zhao Ya’s heart was akin to a twelve-cylinder engine, providing his body with strong kinetic energy.
At this mont, Zhao Ya even felt confident enough to challenge a Martial Artist in the third realm.
While pondering, Zui’Er handed over a piece of waterlon.
"Ya, you must be tired from practicing all morning. Have so lon first."
Zhao Ya looked back and saw Zui’Er standing demurely in the courtyard, looking at him with a gentle expression.
The current Zui’Er’s cultivation had also risen with the tide, now able to leap across rooftops. Although her body technique hadn’t reached Great Success, an ordinary Jianghu person couldn’t easily approach her.
The key was that through these days of training, Zui’Er had grown even taller, and because she focused on leg training, her legs beca more slender.
Looking at the beautifully matured Zui’Er, Zhao Ya couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride.
This was enough to give an explanation to Zui’Er’s deceased grandmother.
Being stared at by Zhao Ya with such intensity, Zui’Er felt a bit shy, yet a surge of joy welled up inside her.
She had dressed up nicely today, wondering if Ya had noticed.
"Alright!"
Zhao Ya finally snapped out of his thoughts, smiled as he took the waterlon, and took a bite.
The sweet juice was refreshing and delightful.
The weather had started to beco hot, but a refreshing breeze wafted through the courtyard, bringing an indescribable comfort.
Suddenly full of enthusiasm, Zhao Ya asked Zui’Er to fry two dishes, set up a table in the courtyard, and pulled out a jar of fine wine left from last ti drinking with Tan Dong, pouring two glasses.
"Co, Zui’Er, have a drink with ."
"Okay!"
Zui’Er sat down with a smile, taking a small sip, her pretty face blossoming into a blush.
Then the two began to talk about everything under the sun.
Most of the ti, it was Zhao Ya talking, while Zui’Er quietly listened, occasionally brushing a strand of hair away from her ear.
Zhao Ya narrated the sights and experiences from these days of escorting missions.
During this month, Zhao Ya for the first ti led a team as an Escort Master, completing an escort trip on his own.
Although it was just a short round trip on the sa day, it proved that Zhao Ya could already manage on his own.
Listening to Zhao Ya’s stories, Zui’Er looked at him, her eyes full of admiration and affection.
Unknowingly, the whole jar of wine was consud.
Zhao Ya was only slightly tipsy, but Zui’Er had drunk a bit too much.
Watching Zui’Er swaying while seated, Zhao Ya chuckled to himself, then supported her into the house and laid her on the bed.
The faint fragrance of the young girl was a bit too alluring for Zhao Ya, making him uncomfortable and prompting him to leave.
But just then, a delicate hand grasped Zhao Ya.
Turning his head, Zhao Ya saw Zui’Er gazing at him affectionately.
"Ya!"
No words were needed.
Only the remnants of the night’s feast remained unattended in the courtyard.
