Chapter 160: Above the Internal Qi
Chapter 160: Above the Internal Qi
Chen Ping'an couldn't refuse Mu Wanjun's invitation. After all, it was just a tea tasting, so he couldn't refuse her.
Seeing that Chen Ping'an agreed, Mu Wanjun was very happy.
"All right, then we'll meet at Cuiliu Pavilion tomorrow at noon."
Cuiliu Pavilion is not in the South City District, but in the inner city of Weishui. It is an extremely elegant place.
It seems that his guess was correct, it should be about the marriage with the Mu family.
However, despite this, Chen Pingan didn't take it too seriously. It was just a one-time meeting, and he could just find a reason to reject her after the meeting.
At noon on the second day, Chen Pingan arrived at the Cuiliu Elegant Pavilion in the inner city of Weishui as scheduled. The Cuiliu Elegant Pavilion, surrounded by a half-moon lake, looked magnificent.
Led by the maid, Chen Pingan walked up to the private room on the second floor. Two women were already waiting quietly inside.
One of them was naturally Mu Wanjun, whom Chen Pingan was very familiar with. The other one was wearing a red dress, with willow-shaped eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, fair skin, and was extremely pretty.
I have to say, she is indeed a beauty.
With Mu Wanjun's introduction, the two quickly became familiar with each other.
Mu Zhixuan is a concubine's daughter of the Mu family. However, her father is a powerful manager of the Mu family, and her grandfather is the elder of the Mu family. Although she is a concubine's daughter, she is a legitimate daughter.
It has to be said that Mu Wanjun showed great sincerity in finding such a woman for Chen Pingan.
just
Mu Zhixuan seemed to have other ideas. Although her communication with Chen Pingan was smooth, she was still a little proud of being a girl from an aristocratic family. She was very critical of Chen Pingan's words and actions.
It is more of a one-sided screening than a mutual acquaintance.
In response, Chen Pingan smiled without saying anything, without losing his composure.
After talking for more than half an hour, Chen Pingan finally took his leave, leaving Mu Wanjun and Mu Zhixuan behind.
"Zhixuan, what do you think?"
Mu Wanjun asked with a smile.
As Mu Wanjun was the legitimate daughter of the Mu family, Mu Zhixuan naturally did not dare to act coyly in front of her.
"Sister, Mr. Chen behaves well and is very elegant, so he should be a good man. However, this time he is not marrying into the wife's family, but..."
Mu Zhixuan didn't finish her words, but Mu Wanjun roughly understood what she meant.
After all, according to the previous discussion, Mu Zhixuan was going to get married. Since she was going to get married, the requirements for her husband's family would be high. And Chen Ping'an's weakest point was his family background.
Not to mention other things, but the family wealth is far inferior.
She didn't want to live a hard life after she got married.
Fortunately, as a candidate for chief constable, Chen Ping'an can make money in various ways as long as he is willing to work hard.
After comprehensive communication, it was barely acceptable to her.
After a conversation between the two, Mu Wanjun understood the situation clearly, and Mu Zhixuan had passed this test.
Next, we need to find out Chen Ping'an's considerations. If it is possible, we will establish a status as soon as possible so that the family can increase their bet on Chen Ping'an.
Given time, we may see a young genius rise!
Mu Wanjun acted quickly and summoned Chen Pingan early the next morning to find out about the fortune-telling session yesterday.
"Ms. Zhixuan, you are good. But, as I have not yet mastered martial arts, I really have no plans to start a family."
Chen Pingan expressed his thoughts.
In fact, he really had no feelings for Mu Zhixuan.
"Peace, as the saying goes, to start a family and establish a career. Starting a family does not conflict with martial arts."
Mu Wanjun consoled.
Chen Pingan responded with a faint smile.
No matter how Mu Wanjun persuaded him, he just politely refused. Mu Wanjun felt helpless about this.
I thought that if the family agreed, the marriage would go smoothly. Unexpectedly, I ran into a setback with Chen Pingan.
She also admired Chen Pingan a little. If others heard that a noble family was willing to marry their daughter, they would probably rush to agree. If they could marry a daughter from a noble family, they would have to work less for many years.
"After all, he is a young talent with great ambitions and great courage!"
Mu Wanjun looked at Chen Pingan and secretly praised him in her heart.
From her point of view, this matter will ultimately benefit Chen Pingan rather than harm him. If it succeeds, it will also be a help to his future. She will do her best to promote it. However, seeing the current situation, she cannot act too hastily, so as not to arouse Chen Pingan's rebellious heart.
Let's leave it at this point for now, and we'll work on it slowly later.
In the next few days, Chen Pingan changed his image and went to Ruyi Bao Pavilion on purpose to buy two superior skills.
Flying Star Sword Technique! Vajra Palm!
The time he chose was at night. With the help of the gold finger panel, he disguised himself as a person in the inner energy realm passing through Weishui County. He changed his appearance several times before quietly returning to his residence.
With two more superior skills, Chen Pingan was extremely excited.
Now, he only needs to perfect his Swift Wind Sword Skill, break through his cultivation to the third level of Inner Qi in one fell swoop, and then the rain of heaven will descend upon his head. By then, the sea will be wide for fish to leap, and the sky will be high for birds to fly!
With his martial arts cultivation of the third level of internal energy, and relying on his many skills and practical experience blessed by the golden finger panel, there are probably not many people in this huge Weishui outer city who can make him feel afraid.
As his status rises, his understanding of the world is constantly updated and keeps pace with the times.
Although the forces in Weishui Outer City are numerous, at best they only have the foundation of the third level of internal energy. Even the commander with the highest cultivation level in the Outer City Town Pacification Division is only at the level of Tianlin Jiangding Perfection.
Those forces that have truly entered the realm above internal energy have already moved into the inner city of Weishui, entering into a higher level of interest entanglement and power game.
As for the realms above internal energy, Chen Pingan also had some understanding after he was promoted to the candidate for chief inspector.
Above the internal energy is the Xuanguan realm!
After Tianlin descended to the top of the head, he condensed the seeds of mysterious light to gather the spiritual and divine will.
According to Chen Ping'an's understanding in his previous life, if the Inner Energy Realm was still lingering at the low level of martial arts, then entering the Xuanguan Realm would subtly change towards the middle level of martial arts.
In the realm of mysterious light, the power that bursts out in every move and style has a mysterious meaning. If the spiritual and bright divine will is successful, it will have the ability to penetrate everything with mysterious light. With the spiritual and bright divine will, reality is disturbed, and various magical phenomena occur.
"Xuan Guang Realm!"
A glimmer of longing flashed in Chen Ping'an's eyes.
If he could enter the Xuanguan realm, he would be able to truly stir up trouble in the Weishui County city.
Xuanguang Realm is also the real foundation for the aristocratic families in the inner city.
"Don't be in a hurry, take your time!"
Chen Pingan calmed his mind and began to practice the Gale Sword Technique in the courtyard.
Eat your food one bite at a time and take your journey one step at a time!
With his current progress, in another seven or eight days, he should be able to successfully enter the realm of Tianlin Jiangding.
Before Chen Pingan successfully entered the realm of Tianlin Jiangding, a special prisoner arrived in the South City Prison one day.
The reason why it is special is that there was such a big scene on the day he was imprisoned.
In addition to the Zhenfusi officers who escorted him to the South City Prison, there were also dozens of his family servants and guards. These people had solemn faces and grim eyes, staring intently at the Zhenfusi officers who escorted him.
The officers of the Pacification Office, who were feared like tigers by the common people, looked flustered and uneasy under the gaze of these guards.
These servants and guards are from the inner city. They are from the four major families of Weishui and the Fang family!
The reason they came here was because the person who was escorted to South City Prison today was the eldest son of their Fang family, Fang Rui!
These guards came here to show their strength!
Fang Rui committed a crime, rode his horse into the street, and whipped dozens of people in the street, three of whom died. Afterwards, he was arrested on the spot by the Fusi of the Outer Town, and for unknown reasons, he was transferred to the South City Prison.
