I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 228. Innate

tons of Calming Incense, Xia Weiyun had found a special storeroom for it.

After everything was moved in, she locked the storeroom and with a brilliantly smiling face, she said,

"These incense sticks will suffice for a year’s use, those speculative bastards are in for some bad luck!"

There wasn’t even a need to wage a price war, just dragging it out for a year would be enough to have those unscrupulous merchants making a thorough loss.

Everything has a cost, and speculative dealing, when unprofitable, equals losses.

Lu Li was happy to see this, as he helped the National Martial Arts Association partly for the enjoyment of the spectacle.

Seeing the matter perfectly resolved, he said, "Master, then we’ll be leaving now."

Xiao Cha also waved her hand, then was ready to head home with the man.

"Eh..."

Seeing the two of them about to leave without saying much more, Xia Weiyun’s face showed signs of difficulty.

Having received such significant help, there should be some form of repayment.

But what could she give to a person who could easily produce 7 tons of Calming Incense?

Master froze for a few seconds, and by that time, the two had already started the car to leave.

Fortunately, at that moment, Nan Jiping came over.

"What’s wrong?"

He had come early, having nothing else to do and was clueless about what had transpired.

Xia Weiyun hurriedly said, "Lu Li gave us 7 tons of Calming Incense!!"

"What!"

Nan Jiping’s expression changed, and he subconsciously glanced at the storeroom, then quickly called out to Lu Li, who was just turning the car around,

"Mr. Lu, wait a moment."

Just then, Lu Li also noticed the elderly man coming and got out of the car to greet him, "Mr. Nan, good morning."

Nan Jiping said formally, "The other day, you casually mentioned it, and to think Mr. Lu has such divine skills. This old man offers his thanks once again!"

After expressing gratitude, the elderly man hastily added,

"But nurturing the virtuous for the country is the intrinsic duty of our National Martial Arts Association. It really isn’t right for you to go to such expense."

Lu Li was about to say that the Calming Incense was nothing much...

But Nan Jiping raised his hand to stop him,

"Also, during the fight on the Life and Death Arena against the Chuyun people, you contributed greatly. We simply can’t take this gift of incense without recompense... How about this, this old man has a reserve of ’Innate True Qi’, consider it as partial repayment."

As he spoke, a light blue hue appeared in the old man’s hand.

This must be the ’Innate True Qi’, which Lu Li did not recognize.

But his subconscious already erupted in intense desire, eagerly wanting to attain it; it was undoubtedly a treasure!

Seeing this, Xia Weiyun tensed up and hesitated to speak.

Xiao Cha quietly pinched Lu Li’s thigh from the passenger seat.

Lu Li might sometimes be socially obtuse, but he never missed the mark in critical times.

He immediately realized that something was amiss and laughed it off,

"Mr. Nan, I’ve just returned and am a bit tired. I need to go home and recover from the time difference. Let’s discuss this matter another time."

With that, he stepped on the gas and sped off.

Nan Jiping withdrew his hand and exclaimed, "Truly a righteous man!" ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Xia Weiyun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "At your age, don’t easily deplete your True Qi!"

"I’m a Power Warrior; I’ve lived too long for no good purpose, better to cultivate the younger generation."

Nan Jiping replied with a smile, "I’ve still got a reserve of True Qi to help you advance to ’Innate’."

"I don’t need that, don’t you trust me?" she responded playfully.

The elderly man before her was nearing the end, and Xia Weiyun didn’t wish to continue the topic.

She opened the storeroom and carefully began to inspect the Calming Incense Lu Li had brought.

At that moment, a thought crossed her mind:

"Not long ago, the ’Four Spirits’ also delivered Calming Incense, and they used their Spirit to send it too!"

Thinking of this, as if by an external force, Xia Weiyun took out the old incense and compared it with the new.

Fortunately, the new incense was superior in craftsmanship and effectiveness by a couple notches.

Nan Jiping saw this scene and smiled, saying,

"This incense is machine-processed, surely a Western technique. There’s also a distinct smell of seawater; it must have been Mr. Lu who went through the trouble of bringing it from across the ocean."

"It was my overthinking."

Xia Weiyun gave a self-deprecating smile, then left the storeroom with Nan Jiping.

As they made their way to the main building of the National Martial Arts Association, they talked about how they might repay the favor.

But as soon as they stepped into the lobby, their expressions changed simultaneously.

Standing before them was a monk with a square face and big ears, his face beaming with a benevolent smile, his hands pressed together as he said,

"Amitabha, it looks like the two benefactors have had some good fortune."

"Zheng Hong, you thieving baldie! How dare you show your face here!"

Xia Weiyun shouted,

"In the Life and Death Arena against the Chuyun people, your precious disciple fled the battle. Don’t tell me you didn’t know about it!"

"As the abbot of Xuanzang Temple, of course, I was aware."

This Zheng Hong monk might have had a kind and magnanimous face, but his eyes were glued to Xia Weiyun and would not move away.

Lustful gazes swept continuously over the matronly figure’s waist, buttocks, and thighs.

Xia Weiyun was livid and cursed, "You thieving baldie! You..."

But before she could finish her sentence, it got stuck in her throat.

In her perspective, Zheng Hong had suddenly enlarged many times over, like a mountain covering the space in front of her.

This was the overpowering effect on one’s life magnetism and the accompanying psychological pressure.

Zheng Hong said with a chuckle,

"Mr. Nan, Chairman Xia, let’s spare the pleasantries. I have come to take up the position of vice-president. This matter has been approved by the Governor’s Office, and I hope we can get along pleasantly in the future. Farewell!"

With that, the monk swept away in his robes.

As his garment billowed, he actually stirred up a strong gust of wind at level 8, which threw the hall into complete disarray with tables and chairs flying all over the place.

Clearly, this was an Innate Realm practitioner—and one in his prime, at that!

Xia Weiyun’s face turned ugly,

"The National Martial Arts Association was supposed to curb these local bullies, and now they have actually allowed one to join and take a position. I don’t know what the Governor is thinking!"

"Nothing but fishing in troubled waters and using others to do the dirty work."

Nan Jiping sought to comfort herself,

"Thinking on the bright side, at least the abbot of Xuanzang Temple wouldn’t side with the Chuyun people. With Xuanzang Temple’s vast lands all planted with opium, they would also resist the Ice Soul Powder."

"I hope so..."

Xia Weiyun possessed the Refining God Cultivation of Meditation, and in the depths of her spirit, she couldn’t shake a sense of foreboding.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, Lu Li was just returning home with Xiao Cha.

Xiao Cha explained her reason for intervening earlier:

"Mr. Nan is 90 years old and was wounded at the core in a bloody battle with the Westerners when he was young. If he depletes his True Qi now, I’m afraid he won’t live much longer."

Lu Li nodded in understanding, "I see, then let’s not proceed."

"The essence of Martial Arts lies in the word ’nurture.’ Being brash and fierce only leaves one with hidden injuries and shortens the journey ahead."

"That makes sense... Ah, anything new lately?"

Hearing her man inquire, Xiao Cha spoke,

"There is one thing. The Reconciliation Treaty has taken effect, allowing those in the Innate Realm to travel freely to and from all the major trading ports without restrictions."

The girl elaborated—

The combat power of those in the Innate Realm was too formidable, requiring prior notification before visiting other powers’ territories, otherwise it would be deemed as a direct declaration of war.

Previously, when the court ceded trading ports, the Great Powers made it clear: Shen Zhou’s Innate Martial Artists were forbidden to enter without notification.

But now, with the Reconciliation Treaty in effect, this restriction had been lifted.

Xiao Cha solemnly warned,

"This treaty was eagerly facilitated by the Chuyun to allow their Innate combatants free access to Shen Zhou. We must be extra cautious!"

"Innate... only Soul Emergence can keep it in check."

Lu Li felt the need to hasten his progress.
