Fearless waved his hand and said, “Us people from Quan Zhen Sect are not so hard up for money. Is that dungeon of yours related to a Quest?”
“En, it’s a Quest Dungeon, I just have to clear it,” Captain Don’t Open Fire replied.
“That’s good then. We do not want your money, we just want the loot from the dungeon, how about that?”
As Captain Don’t Open Fire’s dungeon was a quest-related one, it has definitely not been cleared before and was definitely a hidden dungeon.
The rewards from a hidden dungeon were bountiful, much less one that has yet to be cleared before… Any random good item looted from the dungeon could be sold for an extremely high price, it was definitely more worth it than striking a price for their service.
“This… Only the loot?” Upon hearing Fearless’ offer, Captain Don’t Open Fire became slightly hesitant.
“What? If you aren’t willing, then we will be making our move first,” Fearless said coolly, preparing to leave.
Quan Zhen Sect never partook in any business that wasn’t beneficial for them. Furthermore, the ball was in their court this time around. Fearless definitely wasn’t someone who was afraid of stating his terms.
It should be pointed out that Quan Zhen Sect had just received a fortune from the incident previously. They would definitely not succ.u.mb to just 20,000 gold.
Seeing Fearless on the verge of leaving, Captain Don’t Open Fire frantically went up to Fearless and said, “No, no, no… Since Boss Fearless has requested so, let’s do it that way then. I’m fine with it.”
“Now we’re talking…” Seeing Captain Don’t Open Fire’s desperation, Fearless couldn’t help but smile cheekily. He then added, “Then it’s settled then, let’s strike while the iron’s hot! Let’s go over now!”
Captain Don’t Open Fire replied, “We can’t. This dungeon can only be attempted once per week. A few days ago, we attempted it ourselves but failed. We have to wait till Monday tomorrow in order to attempt it again.”
“That’s fine, tomorrow it shall be, remember to inform us about it.” After saying his piece, Fearless stood up and bade his farewell to the rest of the people sitting at the table, before bringing the rest from Quan Zhen Sect out of the inn.
After stepping out of the inn, w.a.n.g Yu said to the rest, “You guys carry on playing, I have to go offline now.”
“What the h.e.l.l, it’s barely noon and you are going offline? Can’t you play longer on the weekends? Furthermore, we have the weekend event in the next two days…” Seeing w.a.n.g Yu so uncommitted, the rest from Quan Zhen Sect couldn’t help but express their dissatisfaction.
The weekends were the period when there was 2x EXP going on as well as other sorts of activities and quests occurring at the same time. This kind of Blessing only occurred once every week. On normal days, w.a.n.g Yu always played until 6 pm. Playing till 12 pm was simply too insincere on w.a.n.g Yu’s part.
w.a.n.g Yu smiled and said, “I have some personal matters to attend to.”
“What about the events?” Everyone tried their best to convince w.a.n.g Yu to stay.
w.a.n.g Yu waved his hand and said, “Those things don’t really matter to me. You guys can use this opportunity to close up the gap between us, even though it wouldn’t really help much…”
“F*ck! Get lost!” Upon hearing w.a.n.g Yu’s condescending statement, everyone was immediately enraged.
Seeing the angry looks of everyone, w.a.n.g Yu laughed cheekily before logging off.
After going offline, w.a.n.g Yu found Mu Zi Xian rolling up her sleeves preparing to cook lunch in the kitchen. Sneakily, he walked over, patting her on the shoulder and said, “Hey, pretty lady.”
After getting abruptly patted by w.a.n.g Yu, Mu Zi Xian jumped in fright. With a turn of her body, she swung the kitchen knife in her hand over.
For a martial artist, being able to retract one’s motion was an extremely hard thing to do, much less for a normal person like Mu Zi Xian. The moment she realised that the person standing behind her was w.a.n.g Yu, it was already too late for her to retract the knife back.
Fortunately, w.a.n.g Yu wasn’t an ordinary person. With a slight turn of his body, he dodged the oncoming kitchen knife and took Mu Zi Xian into his embrace at the same time. At the same time, with a slight push, the kitchen knife in Mu Zi Xian’s hand fell onto the chopping board.
“Are you trying to scare me to death?!” Mu Zi Xian chided while ruthlessly stepping onto w.a.n.g Yu, still unnerved by what had happened.
w.a.n.g Yu was in a cold sweat too. Thankfully, he was a martial artist himself; otherwise, the knife would have taken away his right hand.
“It was just a joke, why is your reaction so big?” w.a.n.g Yu said cheekily.
“Bullsh*t! Your hooligan way of addressing me made me think someone broke into our house. Alright, this isn’t a place for you to enter, just wait outside for the food to be served,” Mu Zi Xian said, nudging w.a.n.g Yu out of the kitchen.
“You’re right, I was too excited. Wife, stop preparing the food. Let’s go out and have a good meal,” w.a.n.g Yu said excitedly.
“Oh? I heard that you guys struck a fortune today.” Mu Zi Xian had just come offline herself, thus she had heard of the incident pertaining to w.a.n.g Yu and gang exploiting the Divine Martial Guild.
“We did receive quite a fortune, but that’s a small matter. There is an even better thing to be happy about!” w.a.n.g Yu said, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.
“Wu… You found a mistress?” Mu Zi Xian said, while wiping her hands on the ap.r.o.n she was wearing.
“…” w.a.n.g Yu was speechless for a moment. He then spoke after a while, saying, “What nonsense are you saying… It’s just that I have broken through to a new realm.”
“Broken through to a new realm? So soon? I thought you said that you needed a few years worth of hard work in order to do so?” Mu Zi Xian asked, stunned by the news.
w.a.n.g Yu wasn’t any other ordinary martial artist. At such a young age, he had already reached the realm of a Grandmaster. Furthering his cultivation in martial arts wasn’t such a simple task.
In the martial arts world, there were quite a few grandmasters that practised boxing techniques. Among the heads of the four aristocrat families, even though their apt.i.tude couldn’t be compared to w.a.n.g Yu’s, they were still considered rare talents themselves. However, without exception, they were stuck in this realm as well.
Just looking at w.a.n.g Yu’s father, w.a.n.g Tian Long, he entered the realm of Grandmaster when he was 30, but has yet to break through this hurdle at the age of 50.
w.a.n.g Yu’s previous statement claiming that he only needed a few years to break through this realm was already an extremely positive one. Now that he had successfully broken through in just a few months, it was simply unbelievable.
“Ha ha, I would have to thank the bunch of people from the Divine Martial Guild for that. Without them, I would have required a few years’ time in order to break through,” w.a.n.g Yu said smugly.
Martial arts were originally a technique developed to help kill. Only under the condition of non-stop slaughter can one successfully temper his own techniques, breaking through to an even higher realm.
Previously, w.a.n.g Yu had been busy with the Qualifiers matches. The enemies in the Qualifiers were too weak and the largest scale battle that occurred were the 10 vs 10 matches. Even if w.a.n.g Yu were to face all ten enemies alone, the battle would still be too relaxing for him.
For someone in the same realm as w.a.n.g Yu, such battles were practically useless in his cultivation.
However, the battle with Divine Martial Guild today greatly satiated w.a.n.g Yu’s thirst for battle.
The players from Divine Martial that engaged w.a.n.g Yu in the fight were all elite experts. Under the onslaught of a hundred of them, w.a.n.g Yu had been backed into a corner numerous times throughout the duration of the battle.
Only under such extreme conditions can one’s body’s potential be fully brought out. w.a.n.g Yu was no exception. Under the onslaught of Divine Martial, w.a.n.g Yu’s innate potential was gradually brought out. At the end of the battle, he had finally stabilised his own foundation in this new realm.
Following which, upon witnessing Fearless employing his wits and smarts in the deal struck with Captain Don’t Open Fire, w.a.n.g Yu was able to achieve enlightenment and finally broke through to the realm no other Boxing Grandmaster has ever broken through before.
“Can’t you tell anything different about me?” w.a.n.g Yu asked, holding onto Mu Zi Xian.
Mu Zi Xian frowned and replied to w.a.n.g Yu, “I think you became stupid…”
