Rise to God with Life Skill Professions-Chapter 340 - 330: Lady Green Radish Visits, News of the True Intent
Before the voice had faded, Zheng Qun Mountain’s body suddenly froze, his gaze like a knife pinning to the courtyard gate.
There stood a petite figure in green, with a striped fierce tiger lying beside her at the gate.
The fierce tiger emanated a swirling pseudo-god aura. Even though Zheng Qun Mountain had achieved the Perfection of Inner God Realm, he was still suffocating under its pressure.
Especially when his gaze met the green-clad woman, his whole body uncontrollably trembled.
Tang Zizhen was the first to recover, his face changed abruptly, he bowed with cupped fists and said, "Your servant greets Lady Lv Luo and Lord Hu!"
Zheng Qun Mountain gritted his teeth, saying nothing.
Lv Luo walked forward slowly, though barefoot on the ground, yet untouched by any dust.
When she arrived before Zheng Qun Mountain, Zheng dared not meet Lv Luo’s gaze and hastily lowered his head, staring tightly at the ground.
Tiger Girl lazily spoke, "Granny, you were right, this kid is far worse than Qin An, he doesn’t even have the guts to look up at you."
Zheng Qun Mountain’s fists clenched tightly, yet he still dared not move.
Only the old mountain patrol Silver Generals like them knew how terrifying this woman called "Granny" was before them.
In terms of killing, she topped the mountain patrol Golden Generals, even the blood on Zheng Qun Mountain’s mentor’s hands was not half hers.
Lv Luo raised her gentle hand, curled her fingers, and flicked.
"Bang!"
A gale fiercely collided with Zheng Qun Mountain’s chest, flinging him whole backward, crashing through the house behind.
Amidst the flying rubble, Zheng Qun Mountain struggled to crawl out, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, yet he never uttered a word.
Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth to the ground.
With just a casual flick, Lv Luo had inflicted a significant injury on him.
Tang Zizhen’s face turned as pale as paper, shivering without daring to speak, not even daring to utter a word of plea for Zheng Qun Mountain.
Tiger Girl moved her massive paw, licking her fangs, approached Lv Luo with a cruel grin: "Granny, it’s been a long time since I’ve had something good to eat; the pseudo-gods I’ve been eating lately are getting bland; why not give me this boy as a snack?"
Lv Luo slapped her forehead with a backhand: "Well, that sounds good, but the fellow behind him is a bit troublesome, forget it, I’ll just cripple his two arms as a lesson."
Zheng Qun Mountain’s face suddenly changed.
Before he could look up, two more blasts of wind pierced his arms.
With intense pain, Zheng Qun Mountain gritted his teeth, resisting this penetrating agony.
Lv Luo covered her mouth with a light laugh: "Not bad, not bad, your endurance is alright, but your character is lacking a bit; consider today’s small lesson just a hiatus, after a month of recovery, you should be healed."
Zheng Qun Mountain wiped the sweat from his forehead, the pain grew more severe, he said with difficulty: "Granny, why do you interfere with the matter between your servant and Qin An?"
Lv Luo replied with a smile: "I want to get involved; what can you do about it?"
Zheng Qun Mountain lowered his head, not daring to speak.
Lv Luo playfully blinked: "If you and Qin An have grievances, you can resolve them, but not in the Evil Extermination Bureau; if you encounter each other during assignments, you two can have a showdown, it’s none of my concern; but if you stir up trouble within the bureau, it shows you’ve become arrogant with power."
"Granny doesn’t like such people."
Zheng Qun Mountain’s mouth twitched slightly, his Adam’s apple bobbing: "Granny, will you also intervene in the dispute between Mr. Jin and my mentor?"
Lv Luo tilted her head with a smile: "Naturally, how can anything interesting not include me? Go back and tell your mentor that Granny has already sided with Jin Fengyu; if he’s unhappy, he can come to play with me."
Zheng Qun Mountain clenched his teeth, "Very well, since Granny has spoken, after I return, I will certainly inform my mentor of the facts, and also... I won’t cause trouble for Qin An in the bureau, but if we meet in the wilderness, Granny should not intervene."
Lv Luo waved her hand impatiently: "I have many matters, killing pseudo-god monsters daily, I lack the interest to bother with your affairs, today was merely a chance encounter."
Zheng Qun Mountain said no more, yet he dared not take a step forward.
Lv Luo’s face abruptly turned cold: "Scram!"
Hearing this word, Zheng Qun Mountain felt like granted amnesty, quickly left the courtyard.
Tiger Girl yawned, flicked her tail, and murmured: "Granny, it’s truly boring, this kid even spoke timidly with you, really isn’t as interesting as young Qin An."
"There is only one Qin An in this world." Lv Luo shook her head and glanced at Tang Zizhen: "You’re lucky, if you dared to touch him, you’d be the one lying here today."
Tang Zizhen’s throat bobbed, not daring to say more.
Lv Luo stretched lazily, turned and walked toward the courtyard: "Girl, go and check on that kid, it’s been a while since I’ve seen him, I kind of miss him."
Tiger Girl cast a bloodthirsty look at Tang Zizhen, then turned to follow Lv Luo, leaving quietly.
Soon, only Tang Zizhen was left here.
Tang Zizhen looked back over the house, her eyes carrying a hint of bewilderment.
"Unexpectedly, Qin An now not only has strength superior to mine, even his background is stronger..."
"Favored by two mountain patrol Golden Generals, how on earth did he manage it?"
The breeze swept by, and Tang Zizhen’s ink-black hair swayed unsteadily.
Nobody knew what she was thinking, only her expression grew increasingly desolate.
...
The night deepened, now as thick as ink.
In Qin An’s small courtyard, the flicker of the oil lamp cast a mottled shadow on the wall.
Qin An sat alone under the lamp, lightly tapping his fingers on the table, contemplating recent plans.
Now, he had resolved the major enemy of Carefree Mountain and executed Hu Long and other mountain patrol Silver Generals on the spot.
If Hu Long and their bodies were discovered, he had a way to handle it, merely needing to reveal the truth.
As to whether believed or not, that was another matter, after all, the dead would not speak.
What he should think about, instead, were deeper matters.
"Although Carefree Mountain has been resolved, my crisis hasn’t lessened."
Qin An’s gaze was grave: "Not only are there other monsters and Pseudo-Gods lurking, but there’s also the vortex of power struggles in Xunyang Prefecture. Now that Ji Cheng is dead, if his mentor finds out, they will certainly harbor a grudge against me. That’s the first issue."
"The second issue is that Divine Soul Refining Body Skill I encountered earlier, with a Mountain Patrol Golden General behind it."
"My repeated disruptions may have left some clues. If he finds out, he could be even more dangerous than Ji Cheng’s mentor."
"And those forces connected to Carefree Mountain, if they seek revenge, they’ll likely blame it all on me."
With each issue he mentioned, Qin An’s brow furrowed more deeply.
He suddenly felt as if he was now in a quagmire, sinking deeper and unable to extricate himself.
"The only way to resolve this... is to enhance my abilities." Qin An’s eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze flickering and becoming more profound under the firelight: "Only by advancing to the Unity Realm, reaching the level of a Mountain Patrol Golden General, can I eliminate most of the dangers. At that point, I’ll have the firm standing in Xunyang Prefecture."
"However, before that, I must proceed step by step, striving for unparalleled foundations, which means entering the Ancient Battlefield ruins."
"First, I’ll advance to the Great Success of Inner God Realm."
Soon, a plan formed in Qin An’s mind.
He planned to first elevate all his professions to level thirteen, then deduce all Cultivation Techniques to the initial stage of the Inner God Realm.
Finally, he’ll enhance his Scholar Profession, deducing the Heart Method to the Great Success of Inner God Realm.
Only then can he develop comprehensively.
"The next step is to elevate the Healer and Dancer professions."
With this in mind, Qin An pondered a while and planned to visit the medical hall in Xunyang Prefecture tomorrow, to raise the Healer and Dancer to level thirteen before deducing Cultivation Techniques.
As for the necessary Cultivation Techniques and monster intelligence, Qin An still had them for now, and having wiped out Carefree Mountain, accomplishing an impossible task, the merit he earned was enough to last him a while.
"After elevating these two professions to level thirteen, I’ll take on tasks to gain more merit."
Having figured this out, Qin An prepared to extinguish the oil lamp and rest early.
Even with Qin An’s abilities, this battle had left him somewhat fatigued.
The more danger there is, the more he needs to be well-prepared.
Just like before, no matter how great the pressure, he must maintain ample sleep to face challenges in the best condition.
Yet just as Qin An was about to blow out the oil lamp, brisk footsteps suddenly sounded.
Qin An’s hand rested on the scabbard, Cold Star exposed half an inch, his gaze icy: "Who is it!"
It was the middle of the night, and someone suddenly knocked on the door to visit. If there was no matter, Qin An wouldn’t believe it.
As soon as he spoke, an enchanting, bell-like laughter came from outside the door.
"Oh, Mr. Qin is still awake late at night and even so vigilant, truly a model for the young generation."
Hearing this voice, Qin An’s eyes narrowed slightly: "So it’s Lady Lv Luo, please come in."
He remembered well that Lv Luo had helped him out before.
He also knew Lv Luo had a good relationship with Jin Fengyu.
Thus, knowing it was Lv Luo, he relaxed slightly, and Cold Star returned to its scabbard.
Lv Luo pushed the door open from the outside.
Entering the room, Lv Luo approached Qin An barefooted and sat opposite him.
Tiger Girl sniffed around the room curiously.
Qin An clasped his hands and said, "I don’t know what important matter brings Lady Lv Luo to visit late at night?"
Lv Luo chuckled, "Can’t I come to see you for no reason? But you don’t even have a jug of wine here, so different from those nasty men."
Tiger Girl approached Lv Luo, examining Qin An with interest: "Grandma, didn’t I tell you, only this kid Qin An can act with composure before you. Just this temperament alone surpasses those Mountain Patrol Silver Generals. Give this kid some time, and those veterans won’t be a match for him."
Lv Luo disdainfully patted Tiger Girl’s large head: "I already knew this, no need for your chatter. Just be a good mount."
Tiger Girl chuckled but dared not say more, sprawling at Lv Luo’s feet, looking extremely bored.
Qin An lifted the teapot and poured Lv Luo a cup of tea: "My humble abode is shabby, and I don’t like drinking wine, so I only have tea as company. I hope Lady Lv Luo doesn’t mind."
Lv Luo took the teacup and drank it down.
The movement was a bit hasty, and tea flowed along her fair neck into her collar.
Yet she didn’t care, wiping her mouth with her sleeve.
Qin An set the teapot down and sat calmly opposite Lv Luo, ready to listen attentively at any moment.
Lv Luo placed the teacup down: "Alright, no more teasing. Let’s discuss business. Are you very keen on the True Essence of Heaven and Earth?"
At these words, Qin An’s previously composed expression turned serious.
"Lady Lv Luo, do you know the location of the True Essence of Heaven and Earth?"
To Qin An, the True Essence of Heaven and Earth was as crucial as proficiency in his professions.
If these two kinds of True Essence could be gathered, he would build an unparalleled foundation, and after entering the Unity Realm, he’d be much stronger in the same realm.
Since arriving from Ding County, every step he took forged an unparalleled foundation, and failing to do so at the Inner God Realm would be a lamentable miss.
Lv Luo giggled, "I have no clue about the Heaven-level True Essence, but I do know some rumors about the Earth-level True Essence."
"Once, while on a task in the Ancient Battlefield ruins, I happened to encounter it, but few know about this; only that guy Jin Fengyu knows."
"But he’s very decent and didn’t spread the word. Recently, this guy came to me, asking if I could share this news with you."
Qin An asked, "Lady Lv Luo, could you share this information with me?"
"Whether I can share it depends on what you can offer." Lv Luo lifted her fair neck, "What benefits can you provide? If they aren’t enough, I won’t agree, as this is a transaction after all."
Qin An solemnly nodded, "Lady Lv Luo, feel free to speak. As long as it’s within my capability, I’ll do my utmost."
