34: Chapter 34 The Chief Supervisor has been assassinated!

Just as Liu Xi was about to give up practicing Remote Energy Absorption Skill out of despair, his confidant, Tan Tian, offered a different perspective.

After hearing the situation, Tan Tian analyzed for Liu Xi that since the mysterious person used “Remote Energy Absorption Skill,” it meant this Martial Arts could be Cultivated, and the method might not be so demanding. Seven Stars Align only happens once every seventy years, so that’s hard to say.

However, experts of Five Yang and Two Yin are truly hard to find.

Moreover, there had never been any record of a Five Yang and Two Yin expert having their Internal Energy absorbed before.

Is there a possibility that the requirements for Five Yang and Two Yin are not actually that high, or that there is a way to cheat?

For example, by finding people whose destinies meet the requirements, and then using the anointing method to instill the corresponding Martial Arts into them.

That is, find five people with extremely Yang destinies, instill pure Yang Martial Arts into them, and then find two women with extremely Yin destinies, and instill pure Yin Martial Arts into them. After that, let these people adapt for a period of time and let it Fusion with their own destinies.

In this way, this can also be considered Five Yang and Two Yin.

Although it's man-made, Martial Arts is originally developed by people.

When Seven Stars Align, Liu Xi can then absorb all their Martial Arts, perhaps then he can also Cultivate Remote Energy Absorption Skill.

Liu Xi felt there was some truth to it after listening.

They are all Martial Arts; the so-called pure Yin and pure Yang skills make little difference to him, who possesses Absorbing Qi Technique.

He had absorbed pure Yin or pure Yang Martial Arts before, and there was nothing miraculous about it.

Therefore, the key to Cultivating this Remote Energy Absorption Skill should be the opportune timing of Seven Stars Align and the destiny of the person whose Internal Energy is absorbed.

This sounds mysterious, even superstitious, but in today's world, superstition is quite normal.

Moreover, instilling Internal Energy and creating pure Yang and pure Yin experts, throughout the Jianghu and even the world, only his Absorbing Qi Technique can achieve it. Remote Energy Absorption Skill is the supreme Realm of Absorbing Qi Technique, and these two perfectly align.

The important thing is that this way, the so-called Five Yang and Two Yin will be much easier to find.

It was difficult to find before, firstly due to the destiny issue.

A so-called destiny of extreme Yang refers to being born in a Yang year, Yang month, Yang day, and Yang hour, while extreme Yin refers to being born in a Yin year, Yin month, Yin day, and Yin hour.

To fully meet these conditions would require extreme coincidence, and the number of such people is extremely small.

However, although few, if one were to search diligently, some could still be found.

After all, people are born every moment in the world.

But if you add the requirement of Cultivating pure Yang and pure Yin Martial Arts, then it becomes rare.

Poverty in literature, wealth in Martial Arts; Martial Arts is not something ordinary people can afford to Cultivate, let alone having to match pure Yin and pure Yang.

But if this Martial Arts doesn't necessarily have to be Cultivated by oneself, Liu Xi only needs to find seven people with matching destinies, and then find seven people who Cultivate the corresponding Martial Arts, and use Absorbing Qi Technique to transfer the latter's Martial Arts to the former, the difficulty will undoubtedly decrease significantly.

The key is to avoid confronting that irresistible mysterious person.

Liu Xi analyzed afterwards that, though he didn't know the reason, the mysterious person should have some connection with one of the Five Yang experts.

Otherwise, the other party wouldn't repeatedly help them.

He currently can't defeat the opponent and is afraid of being killed by them, so he naturally doesn't want to provoke them again.

Now that there's a way to avoid the opponent, he naturally has to steer clear.

Of course, if he can successfully Cultivate Remote Energy Absorption Skill, then it will be another matter.

If he fails to Cultivate...

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

He, Liu Xi, will definitely succeed in Cultivating it!

Holding this self-hypnotizing firm belief, Liu Xi ordered his subordinates to change direction and search for Five Yang and Two Yin.

As a result, once the approach changed, the results were remarkable.

Seven experts who Cultivated pure Yin Martial Arts were quickly found, and three people with destinies of extreme Yang were also located.

Liu Xi was very happy; truly, a change in thinking leads to continuous gains, excellent!

At the same time, he mused that it had been a month, and the mysterious person hadn't made any moves, so they probably gave up targeting him. Perhaps, their main purpose in acting initially was to save people, not to deal with him.

Thus, Liu Xi, who had been hiding in the imperial palace for a month, finally left the palace with peace of mind.

He wanted to breathe the fresh air outside, he wanted to bask in the brilliant sunshine outside, he wanted to admire the bustling crowds outside.

He wanted to sleep on the soft, large bed in his mansion, he wanted to drink his treasured tribute tea, and he wanted to play with the new parrot he bought not long ago.

He wanted to absorb people's Martial Arts to restore his Internal Energy, he wanted to create pure Yang and pure Yin experts, and he wanted to find another way to Cultivate Remote Energy Absorption Skill.

He wanted to climb to the top step by step and become the number one in the world!

With these thoughts, Liu Xi returned to his mansion in a soft sedan chair.

The moment he stepped out of the sedan, a whooshing sound arose, and several hidden weapons shot directly towards them, some aimed at the nearby East Factory Guards, and some at Liu Xi.

Several East Factory Guards failed to dodge or block in time, were hit, and fell to the ground.

Liu Xi was startled but reacted in time, activating his Internal Energy, rolling up his sleeve, and flicking it, easily neutralizing the incoming hidden weapons.

At the same time, he initially judged that the attacker's Martial Arts skill was not bad, but they were not his match.

It shouldn't be that mysterious person from before!

Immediately after, he focused his gaze. The opponent wore a bamboo hat and a black cloth covering their face, so their features were unclear, but their physique was distinctly different from the mysterious person.

This put Liu Xi's mind at ease, and he decisively met the challenge.

Because the attacker was already approaching with a sword.

You've come at just the right time, this governor will use you to restore my Internal Energy!

Liu Xi coldly roared in his heart, sidestepping the attacker's thrusting sword, then moved closer, gripping the opponent's wrist acupoint, and unhesitatingly activated Absorbing Qi Technique.

The next second, Liu Xi's face drastically changed!

Because he clearly felt that not only did he fail to absorb any Internal Energy, but his own Internal Energy was rapidly surging towards the opponent instead.

Wedding Dress Divine Skill?!

Yao Yue?

No, the opponent is a man!

That mysterious person!?

Thinking of this answer, Liu Xi was instantly scared out of his wits and tried to let go and flee without hesitation.

But how could Meng Li, who had specially planned this, let him have his way?

He immediately activated his skill, turning passive into active, drawing Liu Xi in, and then, while Liu Xi was panicking and struggling, he sealed his throat with a single sword!

In an instant, Liu Xi felt his life force rapidly draining away, his eyes wide open.

He didn't understand why the opponent, who had wanted to absorb his Martial Arts last time, would go for a fatal blow at the first opportunity this time, so much so that he couldn't even call for help in time.

Could it be that the opponent no longer wanted his Internal Energy?

What Liu Xi didn't know was that his Internal Energy was indeed tempting to Meng Li, but not greatly so. After more than two years of development, Meng Li's Internal Energy was already sufficiently powerful; it's hard to say if it could compare to Jiang Yuyan at her Peak in the original plot.

Because they hadn't fought directly.

Also because Jiang Yuyan in the original plot absorbed high-level combat power, while Meng Li's resources for development were relatively ordinary, though greater in quantity, making comparison difficult.

But from recent performances, Meng Li felt that he should not be inferior to Yao Yue and Lian Xing, and not lack Liu Xi's remaining Internal Energy.

Most importantly, the Martial Arts Liu Xi knew, Meng Li had already mastered last time.

This further reduced Liu Xi's value.

Compared to the trouble his escape might bring, the temptation of his Internal Energy was insignificant.

Not to mention Liu Xi had been hiding in the imperial palace, making him wait for a month.

After a single sword strike to the throat, Meng Li, to be safe, delivered two more palm strikes.

Confirming Liu Xi was completely dead, he glanced at Liu Xi's subordinates who had reacted, unleashed his Protective Aura to break through their encirclement, and then used his Lightness Skill to leave.

As soon as he left, the surviving East Factory Guards quickly ran over to check on Liu Xi.

Then, a scream echoed all around.

“The director has been assassinated and died!”
