Ignoring Ling Tianyu, Zhang Xuan continued to work on the acupoints he needed to open in Pixue realm.
After a night of hard work, he managed to open another thirty acupoints in one go. In total, he had opened fifty acupoints.
His zhenqi strength had also reached a total of 70 ding.
If he were to complement it with his physical body, he would be able to exert 160 ding of strength easily. Putting aside a Pixue realm pinnacle expert, he would even be able to defeat a Tongxuan realm primary stage expert easily.
At Tongxuan realm, one would be able to open the most important meridian in the human body. Even at primary stage, one would possess 100 ding of strength. At intermediate stage, one would possess 200 ding, so on and so forth. At pinnacle, one would possess 400 ding.
Zhang Xuan's total strength was 160 ding, which was in between Tongxuan realm primary stage and intermediate stage.
This kind of improvement was already extremely frightening. If news of it were to spread, many people would be shocked to death.
Everyone knew that there was a huge gap between Pixue realm and Tongxuan realm. To be able to defeat a Tongxuan realm expert while at Pixue realm pinnacle, there was probably no one else in the entire Tianxuan Kingdom.
Stretching his back lazily, Zhang Xuan pushed open the door and walked out.
"Old master, Lord Ling has been waiting outside for an entire night." Sun Qiang walked forward.
"Waiting for an entire night?"
He had been so focused on his cultivation that he had forgotten about this fellow.
"Then..." Zhang Xuan raised his finger and fell into deep thought.
Seeing the old master's attitude, it seemed like he intended to invite Lord Ling in. Sun Qiang looked at him expectantly, only to hear the other party say calmly, "Let's... eat first!"
Sun Qiang staggered and fell to the ground.
The owner of Tianyu Merchant Firm, a billionaire, had been waiting outside for an entire night. Yet, his master wanted to eat first...
However, as a servant, he didn't dare to say anything. He immediately instructed the servants to prepare the meal.
It must be said that the maids and servants that this fellow hired were not bad. The dishes they prepared were extremely sumptuous and delicious.
After breakfast, Zhang Xuan strolled around the courtyard for a while. Seeing that it was around ten, he instructed Sun Qiang to open the door.
......
Du Yuan was the young master of one of the Four Great Clans in Tianxuan Kingdom, the Du Clan. He had always been a profligate and idler.
On normal days, he would walk the dog, play with the bird, and run around in the alley.
He is twenty-four this year, but he is only at Fighter 3-dan Zhenqi realm primary stage. Among the scions of the prestigious clans, he can be considered as trash among trash.
However, it wasn't that he wanted to be a playboy. This was something that couldn't be helped!
His father was the most popular candidate for the position of the clan head, but for some reason, he fell ill ten years ago, damaging his meridians and sealing his acupoints. As a result, his cultivation plummeted from Pixue realm to a cripple.
Their previous competitors all hit them when they were down, oppressing their branch families.
Originally, he had inherited his father's talent, which was not bad, and he had the qualifications to compete. Unfortunately, his bloodline had been almost completely suppressed, and if he really wanted to show off his strength, he would definitely be persecuted.
Left with no choice, he could only pretend to be a profligate young master and live a carefree life, taking each day as it came.
Today, he slept until the sun was high up in the sky. Only then did he bring his beloved dog out and slowly stroll along the street.
"Hmm? Isn't that... Lord Ling Tianyu of the Tianyu Trading Company? "
He suddenly stopped in his tracks.
A familiar figure had appeared before him.
Ling Tianyu, one of the few influential figures in the entire Tianxuan Royal City, a billionaire. His domineering aura was overwhelming, and he was full of vigor.
Even though he was a profligate young master, he was still a member of the Four Great Clans. Thus, he came into contact with the upper echelons of society. This Ling Tianyu before him had quite a few business dealings with his Du Clan, so he had met him before.
This person was on the same level as his grandfather. Why... was he standing by the roadside, drenched in dew and in a sorry state, as though he hadn't returned home for the entire night?
"Whose residence is this?"
Soon, he noticed that something was amiss.
This influential figure, Ling Tianyu, seemed to be standing in front of a residence, waiting for the other party to open the door.
He often strolled along this street. This residence had been empty for a very long time, and he had never heard of anyone living here. Besides, even if there was someone living here, what kind of identity did he have for this Lord Ling to wait here?
"I heard that Lord Ling Tianyu has been waiting here since last night!"
"Indeed, I saw it with my own eyes. It seems like Lord Ling wanted to meet the owner of this residence, but the other party ignored him. Only a butler came out and said that he could either continue waiting here or never come again..."
"The heck, are you for real? Who is that? To make Lord Ling Tianyu wait for an entire night? How arrogant! "
"I don't know either... That's why I came here early in the morning. To think that I would really wait for an entire night..."
...
Just as he was perplexed, he heard a conversation not too far away.
"Waited for an entire night?"
Du Yuan gasped in shock.
Only those who came into contact with the upper echelons of society would know of Ling Tianyu's capabilities.
Even though he was a merchant, he was on good terms with the clan heads of the Four Great Clans, as well as the nobles. In fact, he even donated to the treasury every year. Even Emperor Shen Zhui treated him as a money tree and dared not offend him easily.
To think that a person of such status would wait for an entire night outside someone else's residence...
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and heard it from others, he would have never believed it.
Are you for real?
Who in the world is he? So incredible?
"Do you know who the owner of this residence is?"
Du Yuan couldn't help but walk over to the few people who were speaking.
"I don't know, but he seems to have moved in a few days ago!"
"He has a huge entourage. He only moved in a few days ago, but he has already recruited dozens of guards, servants, and maids!"
"I have seen the owner of this residence before. He seems to be a middle-aged man in his forties. His face is a little sallow and skinny. I have never seen him before!"
A few people who knew of the matter said.
"Middle-aged man? Recruited dozens of guards and servants? "
Du Yuan couldn't make heads or tails of what he was hearing.
"Look, the door is open..."
Just as he was filled with doubts, he saw the tightly shut door in front of him slowly open with a creak, and a fat man walked out with a protruding belly.
"Sun Qiang?"
Upon seeing the plump man, he immediately recognized him.
This fellow had opened a rental center in Tianyu Merchant Guild. Back then, when he was hiding a mistress in his house, he had even rented a place from him. After learning of his identity, the other party immediately bowed down to him.
Why was this fellow here?
Could it be that he was a servant here?
Just as he was perplexed, the person he knew, Sun Qiang, gestured grandly, "Lord Ling, my old master invites you in!"
His voice wasn't polite at all, as though he didn't think much of the other party.
A small merchant of Tianyu Merchant Guild actually dared to speak to his boss in such a manner?
Du Yuan thought that Ling Tianyu would fly into a rage, but instead, he heaved a sigh of relief. Not only was there no anger in his eyes, there was gratitude instead. Stepping forward, he passed a pile of items over, "Thank you for your kind words, Brother Sun. This is a small token of my appreciation. Take it first, I will repay you generously in the future!"
"Ah?"
Du Yuan's eyeballs were about to fall to the ground.
The heck... Who can tell me what the heck is going on?
The things he saw today had far exceeded his understanding. It was as though the entire world had been flipped upside down.
