Chapter 7

Chapter Seven: No Way Out

"Serve him right! Damn, he even dared to spy on the guests the young master invited." A servant spoke with intense jealousy. It was no wonder; thinking of Xia Feixuan's beauty, which man wouldn't be jealous?!

Qifeng followed Xiao Yilin quietly, remaining extremely silent all the way. As he gazed at her graceful figure, he found it pleasing to the eye and didn't feel annoyed at all.

"If you don't want to be dealt with by Li Hexuan, you have to keep getting stronger. Or run away immediately," Xiao Yilin suddenly turned around and said.

"Ah!" Qifeng's gaze retracted from Xiao Yilin's rounded buttocks, thinking how close he was to being caught. He hadn't expected the women in this world to be so well-developed. "Second Miss, what did you say?"

Hearing Qifeng's words, Xiao Yilin's face turned slightly red. Normally, when she spoke to servants, they would listen carefully, afraid of missing anything. However, this guy boldly admitted he hadn't heard her.

"I said, if you want to survive, run away quickly. You're no match for Li Hexuan. Although he appears gentlemanly, he is extremely sinister inside," Xiao Yilin repeated.

"Run?!" Qifeng laughed, "Is there any other way?"

Xiao Yilin said, "There is! But it's impossible for you. Unless you become so strong that even Li Hexuan wouldn't dare to touch you."

How could a usually weak servant possibly become strong? There was only one way out: to run. Although Xiao Yilin was angry that Qifeng had spied, she didn't want him to lose his life.

"Thank you, Second Miss." Qifeng smiled slightly, not fearing Li Hexuan. Having lived two lives, he had his own pride and wouldn't run just because of a few words.

Seeing Qifeng's attitude, Xiao Yilin knew he hadn't taken her words to heart. She couldn't help feeling angry, thinking this servant was really ungrateful.

"Hmph! You deserve to die!"

Seeing her good intentions go unrewarded, Xiao Yilin huffed and turned to leave.

Watching Xiao Yilin leave, Qifeng shook his head, "Looks like I need to find a way to get through this. A tiger in the plains is bullied by dogs. If I'm reincarnated as a rogue, I'll be a rogue. But at least I need to complete the full set of procedures for being a rogue. However, I've only done the visual part, not the action and physical parts. Failure..."

Qifeng suddenly felt that his first priority should be to become a Xuan practitioner. Only by becoming a Xuan practitioner could he change his current situation. Most importantly, as Xiao Yilin said, Li Hexuan and Li Wei would never let him off.

"Xuan practitioner, I don't have any cultivation techniques. How can I become a Xuan practitioner?" Qifeng felt a headache coming on.

Life is like rape; if you can't resist, you might as well enjoy it. This was a saying from a sage in his previous life. Qifeng found it particularly true now. He felt like the one being raped, and worse, being gang-raped.

Qifeng gazed at the river ahead, its surface hazy and beautifully serene. If this were his previous life, this place would definitely be a tourist attraction. But now, Qifeng had no such mood. Although he had shown indifference to Xiao Yilin's warning, he understood that in this strictly hierarchical world, it would be easy for them to play him to death.

Li Hexuan was a Xuan practitioner with considerable strength.

Xuan practitioners transcend ordinary people through the cultivation of Xuan techniques. Cultivating Xuan techniques involves developing the body's potential and releasing its energy. Therefore, the most important aspect of cultivating Xuan techniques is continuously strengthening the body. Only by doing so can the body accommodate more energy.

To strengthen the body, one must temper it. A Xuan practitioner can temper the body in many ways: water impact, fire tempering, medicinal therapy, electric shock, and so on, all of which are methods to strengthen the body and cultivate Xuan techniques.

However, no method of tempering the body is as effective as one.

That is, lightning!

The power of lightning, also known as the power of heavenly punishment, is perfectly suited for cultivating Xuan techniques that defy the heavens. Whether through fire tempering, medicinal therapy, or other methods of strengthening the body, none can match the effectiveness of lightning in cultivating Xuan techniques.

However, lightning, known as the power of heavenly punishment, is not easy to use for cultivation. Few Xuan practitioners can cultivate using lightning power, and the most important reason is that lightning power is hard to find. Moreover, some lightning powers are too weak to be useful. At least, the lightning during thunderstorms is useless for Xuan practitioners who have reached a certain level of strength.
