17: The incident in Liugou Village has come to an end, and the value of physical skills is great!

They had been searching for Lu Xuan for most of the night.

After hearing Liang Cheng’s words, the people of Liugou Village, dragging their weary bodies, returned to the village.

East Courtyard!

Liang Cheng had arrived at Lu Xuan’s room early; he had many questions he wanted to ask Lu Xuan.

"Xuan Ge, did you really see that kind of filthy thing?"

"Do such filthy things really exist?"

With a feeling of unease, Liang Cheng, somewhat disbelieving, questioned Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan glanced at the extremely nervous Liang Cheng and slowly said, "Whether it exists or not, haven't you already known it in your heart?"

It was really true; there actually were such terrifying and bizarre filthy things.

Lu Xuan's answer made Liang Cheng’s face show fear; he hadn't expected that the strange things he had heard about before were actually true.

He hadn't felt wrong; Liugou Village actually had such a strange existence, no wonder it gave him an eerie feeling.

No wonder those dead people could move and attack them.

"Then, Xuan Ge, you encountered that kind of thing, did you..."

Liang Cheng made a gesture, asking Lu Xuan if he had dealt with the other party.

If even his cousin couldn't deal with the other party, then Liang Cheng decided that as soon as dawn broke, he would immediately take his subordinates and run away.

Damn it, I'm a Yamen Runner head who gets paid one silver tael a month, and you still want me to risk my life for the imperial court.

At worst, I'll go back, immediately take off this county Yamen Runner head uniform, and go home to live a life of idleness.

Whoever wants to be it can be it. Liang Cheng felt a chill down his spine and cold sweat streaming non-stop when he thought that such a ghostly thing had appeared tonight, and was only separated from him by a single door.

Liang Cheng’s question made Lu Xuan frown, not knowing what to say.

Lu Xuan actually already felt that he suspected that thing wasn't dead at all, but he couldn't find any strong explanation for it right now.

Thinking of this, Lu Xuan felt a bit emotional.

It seems my knowledge is still too limited.

I originally thought it was just an ordinary Martial Dao world, but I didn't expect such strange and extraordinary things to exist.

Not only was Liang Cheng shocked, but even he found it hard to accept.

Given this, Lu Xuan’s strategy of cultivating in secret and staying in a small county town would have to change.

It's time to go to a larger place to gain experience. Perhaps in the prefectural city, there will be detailed records of these things.

"This thing in Liugou Village has been mostly dealt with; it's estimated that there won't be these problems anymore in the future."

Facing Liang Cheng’s question, Lu Xuan still answered him.

According to Lu Xuan's guess, even if it wasn't dead, it would likely be a long time before it could come out and harm people again.

He couldn't be sure about this; perhaps he would only know the detailed situation of these things after he went to the prefectural city to investigate later.

If it was really as Lu Xuan guessed, and this strange thing wasn't dead yet, then he might come back to Liugou Village again.

"Mostly? Estimated?"

"Xuan Ge, what does that mean?"

"Will such things still happen in Liugou Village in the future?"

Lu Xuan's words made Liang Cheng a bit confused. Resolved meant resolved.

How could he hear an uncertain meaning in what his cousin said?

However, after Liang Cheng asked, Lu Xuan only gave him a reassuring look and did not answer his question again.

Liang Cheng had no choice but to leave Lu Xuan's room. Since his cousin said it was mostly resolved, it meant there were no major problems in Liugou Village.

Soon after Liang Cheng left, Lu Xuan checked the System panel in his mind.

Host: Lu Xuan

Realm: Blood Refinement Realm (Perfection)

Cultivation Technique: Scarlet Flame Saber Technique 1/9 (Can be deduced)

Points: 50

Please confirm, whether to consume 30 points to deduce Scarlet Flame Saber Technique.

Lu Xuan suppressed his urgent feelings; now was not the best time to deduce the Scarlet Flame Saber Technique.

The last time he deduced the Blazing Fire Saber Technique, he had to prepare expensive blood ginseng.

He could only proceed with the deduction after returning to the Lu family and making all preparations.

He felt that after this deduction of the Scarlet Flame Saber Technique, his strength would undergo a complete and earth-shattering change.

Lu Xuan’s Blood Refinement Realm had already been Cultivated to Perfection, vaguely touching a hidden Bottleneck that restricted Lu Xuan’s strength from advancing further.

Inner Energy Realm?

That legendary Realm recorded in books, where the body’s five internal organs, six fu-organs, flesh, and bone marrow are Cultivated to Perfection.

Then, by sensing heaven and earth, a mysterious and profound Qi, called Inner Energy, would be produced from a human body that surpassed an ordinary mortal body.

It possessed incredible power, allowing a Martial Artist with Inner Energy to exert the strongest power from the Martial Dao Cultivation Technique he Cultivated.

Since the room door was broken by Lu Xuan, Liang Cheng and the others quickly found a wooden board overnight.

They quickly crafted the wooden board into a simple wooden door and reinstalled it; it was barely usable.

Lu Xuan did not sleep, but sat cross-legged on the wooden bed. The candle on the nearby wooden table burned with a faint flame, and the dim candlelight shone on Lu Xuan's face.

After a night of intense pursuit and unrestrained release of his Qi and blood, Lu Xuan could clearly feel his body was somewhat fatigued.

Accompanying this was a feeling of hunger, so Lu Xuan stood up and walked to the wooden table to sit down.

Then Lu Xuan took out a large amount of dried meat from the satchel on the table. This was food he had asked Li San to buy in advance at the Drunken Immortal Inn in Shili Town.

Lu Xuan picked up the dried meat from the table with one hand and nonchalantly swallowed it in large bites, at an incredibly fast speed.

That strange thing was really troublesome; its speed was astonishing, and it could even fly, Lu Xuan almost let it escape.

Finally, Lu Xuan had to burst out with all his strength, recklessly expending his entire power, just to barely catch up with that strange thing.

Lu Xuan kept chewing the dried meat, his thoughts racing. It seemed it was time for him to find a movement technique.

Relying solely on a Saber Technique was still a bit troublesome against the strange things that had appeared now.

If he knew a movement technique, Lu Xuan could guarantee that the shadow wouldn't even be able to escape the East Courtyard.

If Lu Xuan easily got close to it, and his powerful Qi and blood burst forth, this strange thing would probably be ground down and extinguished by his Qi and blood.

Movement technique!

Where could he find a movement technique? Some good Martial Dao Secret Manuals in the Jianghu were already very precious, let alone good movement techniques.

Lu Xuan thought to himself, it seems that after returning to the county town, he would have to inquire extensively.

It would be best if he could buy it with money, but if he couldn't, then Lu Xuan could only resort to another method.
