Chapter 90 -85 Water Manipulation Palm Perfected, Unforeseen Changes Arise

Panel:

[Chen Jie]

[Realm: Late-stage Skin Buff]

[Martial Arts: Yang Chun Skill (entry-level), Grand Ancestor Long Fist (small success), Water Manipulation Palm (entry-level)]

[Evaluation: You’re just one step away from the Refining Body Realm, and your strength already counts as martial arts entry-level!]

Looking at the information on the panel, Chen Jie exhaled a breath of impure air. Finally, the Water Manipulation Palm had reached the entry level. With the entry-level Water Manipulation Palm combined with the Yang Chun Skill, Chen Jie felt that he could now completely kill Yu Sanliu!

Thinking of this, his eyes filled with a murderous intent.

At this moment, Chen Jie looked at Chen Xiaohu, and Chen Xiaohu looked at Chen Jie and said, “Brother, did you succeed?”

Chen Jie gently nodded.

“That’s great, brother. This time we won’t have to fear that Yu Sanliu or hide from him anymore.”

Xiao Hu said angrily at this moment. He was really angry. These days, people sent by Yu Sanliu were always tailing them. Every time he went into the water, he had to hide from them. Xiao Hu was already extremely annoyed.

Chen Jie said calmly, “Mm, we won’t have to hide from him anymore.”

After saying this, Chen Jie’s eyes turned cold. Some things, it’s also time to resolve them.

…

Meanwhile, in the fishery, Wu Zhong was smoking a dry tobacco, and beside him stood the Big Ship Leader and the Second Ship Leader.

The Big Ship Leader advised, “Brother Wu, you have to think it over. It’s a one-way path; if you go in, it’s very dangerous!”

“That’s right, Manager, you need to be cautious! And in less than ten days, there’s going to be a contest for the position of Village Chief. If something happens to you, what will happen to our fishery?”

The Second Ship Leader also advised.

Wu Zhong took a puff of smoke, blew out a smoke ring, and said, “Mm, there’s nothing I can do about this. Hong’er really needs that Blood Ganoderma. As a father, I can’t ignore it.”

“And there’s still ten days. I’m thinking if I get injured this time, it will be just enough time to heal in ten days and not delay the big event!”

Hearing this, the Big Ship Leader and the Second Ship Leader both shook their heads and said, “Too risky. We disagree!”

Wu Zhong said, “Brothers, my mind is made up. Please stop persuading me. Just in the next few days when I’m gone, the affairs of our fishery will be handed over to you two. Thank you for your hard work!”

Upon hearing this, the two fell silent.

After a long time, the Big Ship Leader sighed and said, “Brother Wu, if you really must go, we can’t stop you. Just hope that if you encounter danger, you know when to retreat, don’t force yourself!”

“Yes, Brother Wu, you must be cautious with this matter. My opinion is that if you don’t have to go, don’t go.”

Wu Zhong replied, “Brothers, I know, but as a father, I can’t stand by and watch my son’s martial arts path crumble here. So my decision is made. I’ll decide to go up the mountain by noon!”

“This…”

The Big Ship Leader and the Second Ship Leader exchanged a glance and sighed.

They both knew where the Blood Ganoderma was located, growing in the gray mist. They had seen the Blood Ganoderma when they followed the Energy Transformation Masters into the gray mist, but it was fraught with dangers. To retrieve the Blood Ganoderma, one would likely need to risk one’s life.

However, Wu Zhong had been preparing for the past few days, especially obtaining some anti-poison insect potions from Doctor Bai, which increased his success rate significantly. It wasn’t necessarily a doomed scenario, which prompted Wu Zhong to give it a try.

For his son’s slim chance at survival, he decided to take the gamble.

Wu Zhong put down the tobacco pipe. He usually didn’t smoke, but the past few days had been so stressful that he used smoking to relieve his fatigue.

Now that he had made up his mind, he no longer needed tobacco to dispel his worries.

It’s just mere gray mist, nothing to be afraid of.

Wu Zhong looked towards Dahei Mountain, deciding to go up the mountain while the midday sun was shining brightly. If luck was on his side, he would come down before dark. For his son, this gamble was worth taking.

Wu Zhong thought of packing up some things in preparation to go up the mountain.

At this time, Chen Jie and Hu Zi were rowing their boat back to the shore and happened to meet Wu Zhong.

“Uncle Zhong.”

The two greeted him, and Wu Zhong smiled and asked, “Jiu Si, you heading back to the village?”

Chen Jie said, “Mm.”

“Then when you go back, help me take a message to your aunt. I have something to do today, so I won’t be back for lunch or dinner. Oh, and this letter, please deliver it to your auntie for me.”

“Ah, Uncle Zhong, is there anything I can help with?”

Wu Zhong responded, “No major issues, no need.”

Wu Zhong declined. Chen Jie said, “Then I’ll pass the message for you, Uncle Zhong.”

Wu Zhong nodded, “Mm, thanks, Jiu Si.”

Chen Jie said, “Uncle Zhong, you’re too kind.”

Taking Wu Zhong’s letter, the two headed towards the village. On the way, Chen Xiaohu said, “Fourth Brother, don’t you think Uncle Zhong seems a bit different today?”

Chen Jie responded, “Mm, he does seem a bit different, as if he’s burdened with something.”

Chen Jie didn’t know what Wu Zhong was planning, but he still returned to the village and went to the Bai family.

He knocked on the courtyard door, and upon entering, he saw Wu Hong practicing walking in the doorway, still looking very weak.

“Jiu Si has come.”

Wu Hong greeted Chen Jie.

Chen Jie said, “Where’s Auntie?”

“Jiu Si.”

Bai came out of the kitchen, immediately greeting Chen Jie, “I just stewed a chicken. Why don’t you stay for lunch?”

Chen Jie replied, “No, Auntie, Yunjin is waiting for me to go home for lunch!”

Bai said, “I see, hold on a moment.”

Soon, Bai came out with a bowl of stewed chicken, with mushrooms in it.

“Auntie, what’s this for? Leave this meat for Brother Hong to regain his strength. Why give it to me?”

Chen Jie declined, and Wu Hong on the side said, “Jiu Si, I’m not short of this bit of meat to recover. Come on, take it. We’re family, there’s no need for formalities!”

Wu Hong spoke, finding a stone stool to sit and rest for a moment; his body was truly weak.

Seeing this, Chen Jie could no longer refuse and said, “Well, thank you, Auntie. By the way, I’m here to deliver a message from Uncle Zhong.”

“Uncle Zhong said he might not be back for lunch or dinner and gave you a letter!”

“A letter?”

Bai took the letter that Chen Jie handed over, glanced at it, and immediately her body went numb and she fell backward.

Seeing this, Chen Jie quickly went forward to support her, “Auntie, what’s wrong, Auntie!”

Wu Hong also anxiously stood up, but his body was too weak, and he almost fell.

Meanwhile, Doctor Bai inside the house heard the commotion and came out with a cane.

Everyone was looking at Bai, who forced a smile that looked worse than crying and said, “No, it’s nothing, let’s eat. No need to wait for Ah Zhong.”

Saying that she turned around.

Chen Jie, Wu Hong, and Doctor Bai exchanged glances, worry written all over their faces.

At the same time, everyone’s eyes were focused on the letter in Bai’s hand.

Wu Hong looked at Doctor Bai, who gave Chen Jie a look.

Chen Jie was a bit embarrassed and looked up.

However, Doctor Bai gave an even sterner look.

Chen Jie, helpless, quickly snatched the letter from Bai’s hand with a swoosh.

Bai hadn’t expected Chen Jie to do that.

She immediately shouted angrily, “Jiu Si!”

Chen Jie quickly apologized, “Auntie, I’m sorry.”

“Give it back to me!”

Bai shouted angrily, trying to grab it back, but at that moment, Doctor Bai’s voice came out, “Lan’er, the burden should be shared. What’s the point of carrying it alone? What’s going on with Zhong’er?”

At this moment, Chen Jie quickly read the letter, and Wu Hong also came over to look at it.

As they read, their expressions became increasingly solemn.

[Lan’er, by the time you read this letter, I will already be at Dahei Mountain. Don’t come after me, you won’t catch up.]

[This time, I’m going up the mountain to cure Hong’er’s illness. Do you remember the Blood Ganoderma I mentioned last time?]

[That’s right, I’m going to gather that hundred-year-old Blood Ganoderma.]

[Don’t worry about me. Although it’s dangerous there, I’ve made thorough preparations, so it’s not an issue. I might even make it back in time for dinner.]

[Oh, right, make red-braised pork for tonight; it’s my favorite.]

Two blank lines.

[Lan’er…]

[If, and I say if I don’t return this time, please take care of my father and son, and don’t tell them the real reason for my death.]

[Especially Hong’er, I don’t want him living with guilt all his life.]

[Also…]

[I’m sorry, Lan’er, for worrying you again…]

[…]

The letter ended here, and upon reading its contents, Wu Hong’s face instantly turned pale. He remained silent and staggered towards the door.

“Hong’er, Hong’er, what are you doing, what are you doing?”

Bai rushed up, blocking Wu Hong.

Wu Hong said, “What am I doing? That old man, that old man, doing this kind of thing again, do I really need him to do this?”

“No, I have to bring him back, I need to bring him back!”

As Wu Hong spoke, he walked out, and Bai tried to stop him, but she couldn’t hold him back at all.

At that moment, Doctor Bai, who had finished reading the letter, shouted, “Let him go, let him die out there, let Zhong’er’s efforts go to waste!”

Doctor Bai roared in anger, like a furious old lion.

Bai stopped, while Wu Hong looked back at Doctor Bai, his eyes filled with tears, “Grandfather, my father, he…”

Doctor Bai exhaled and then spoke, “It hasn’t reached the worst point yet.”

“Not the worst yet, Grandpa. Dahei Mountain has almost been leveled by the Fishing Guild, Guild Cao, and constables. Can there still be any Blood Ganoderma there? If there is, it would only be in the gray mist, where even Energy Transformation Masters dare not go deep. My father is just at the Refining Body Realm, going in there is a death sentence, isn’t it?”

“Does he really think doing this will make me happy?”

“If he dies in there just like that, I’ll hate him for life!”

“If he does this in the future, how can I face it!”

Wu Hong shouted emotionally.

Bai, in tears, cried out loud, her face covered in tears.

Doctor Bai also looked worried, but he still said, “Zhong’er isn’t a reckless person. If he dared to go, he must have some assurance. Though the gray mist is dangerous, ordinary people who accidentally enter have managed to come out, even more so for Zhong’er, who is a martial artist. It’s okay, let’s wait.”

Doctor Bai said, and Wu Hong lowered his head powerlessly. It’s all my fault; if only I were stronger back then and could have taken down Ni Wenjun; it wouldn’t have come to this.

Or perhaps if I had been more cautious initially and didn’t confront Ni Wenjun, the old man wouldn’t have to risk his life now!

Bai cried in despair, slumped in tears, and Doctor Bai sat in the chair with a furrowed brow, feeling helpless as a doctor at this time!

The family’s gloomy atmosphere showed no signs of dispersing, feeling extremely oppressive.

At this moment, Chen Jie stepped forward and said, “Master, Brother Hong, Auntie, don’t worry just yet. Uncle Zhong wouldn’t go alone unless he had some confidence. I’ll head up the mountain later, and stay outside the gray mist. If Uncle Zhong comes out, I’ll guide him back. If not, I’ll go into the gray mist to find him.”

“There won’t be any problem!”

Chen Jie asserted confidently.
