April 7, 10:10 AM.
Pei Jinye left Ms. Xu Jing’s office and glanced at his wristwatch before heading straight to the restaurant.
Brother Bi, Zhou Ye, and the Ancient Martial Artist were all there, currently engrossed in a heated discussion about last night’s events.
At the moment, there weren’t many people in the restaurant, and with many lights still off, some corners were shrouded in darkness.
Upon seeing Pei Jinye, the Ancient Martial Artist and Zhou Ye both eagerly drew him into the conversation about last night.
It wasn’t something that needed to be kept secret, so everyone spoke quite openly.
Unfortunately, Pei Jinye didn’t have much experience in combat operations, and he mentioned that the Judgement Place ultimately intervened and resolved everything.
“The Judgement Place is just too badass,” Zhou Ye couldn’t help but exclaim when he heard this.
Glancing at him with a chuckle, the Ancient Martial Artist teased, “Big bro, that is the Judgement Place we’re talking about. Anyone who can enter there has at least A-level potential, and the Judges who fought last night weren’t even that strong. Still, they solved all our problems effortlessly.”
“I remember there was a Judge named Xu Tian,” Zhou Ye suddenly said.
Brother Bi looked at him: “Respect the dead.”
The Ancient Martial Artist nodded in agreement, “Xu Tian was way higher up than the people from last night, and I’ve heard that something big has happened recently upstairs. Many high-level individuals are not allowed to go out freely anymore.”
“What big thing?” Zhou Ye’s eyes sparkled with curiosity, eager to gossip.
However, the Ancient Martial Artist shook his head, “I don’t know the specifics, but it seems there was some problem in the Eastern Continent. Didn’t Brother Nine die a while ago?”
Pei Jinye couldn’t help but look over.
God damn Brother Nine…
“Are you all free for lunch today? If you are, I’ll treat you to hotpot.”
Pei Jinye spoke up, interrupting their chitchat.
“Of course we’re free.”
“I’m free too.”
Brother Bi and Zhou Ye answered decisively while Pei Jinye turned to look at the Ancient Martial Artist.
The Ancient Martial Artist smiled, “I’ll just ask for leave, no big deal.”
…
Inside Pei’s Hotpot Restaurant.
It had been a while since Pei Jinye had come here, and he just found out that some new dishes had been added.
“Your family’s restaurant has really become a smash hit,” Brother Bi whispered, glancing around at the crowded venue.
“Just a little venture,” Pei Jinye chuckled, handing over the menu.
After placing their orders.
Pei Jinye made small talk with the three of them.
And at that moment.
A phone call came through.
“Little Ye, where you at? Come out and have some fun.”
A familiar voice.
It was unmistakably Tang Huoyang.
Pei Jinye couldn’t help but laugh, “Brother Yang, you’re back in Da Peng City?”
“Yeah, just got back this morning. Where are you? I’ll take you out for a meal.” Tang Huoyang had been away from Da Peng City for some time and was still unaware of the monumental changes that had taken place.
“Give me a location, and I’ll have someone pick you up. There are a few friends here too; let’s all meet up,” Pei Jinye said.
After hanging up.
The Ancient Martial Artist looked on curiously, “Your friend?”
Pei Jinye nodded, “A good buddy from back in the days when we trained in martial arts together, all from our circle.”
As he explained, everyone understood.
The Ancient Martial Artist immediately smiled and stated, “Your brother is my brother. But to be someone who trained in martial arts with you, he must be pretty strong, right?”
Pei Jinye looked at him and smiled, “Feeling itchy palms? Go to your place and spar later on. Haven’t seen him for a while; not sure how much stronger he’s gotten.”
“Haha, sure thing. Sparring with you isn’t fun anymore. Let’s see how your brother fares,” the Ancient Martial Artist replied eagerly.
Before long.
Pei Jinye went down to receive Tang Huoyang.
Compared to his previous delicate complexion, Tang Huoyang now had much darker skin, appearing as if he was often exposed to the wind and the sun.
“Old Pei.”
Tang Huoyang spread his arms wide and gave Pei Jinye a tight hug.
“Welcome back,” Pei Jinye replied while patting Tang Huoyang’s back, “How long are you staying this time?”
“I’ll rest for half a month first. It’s too chaotic out there; I nearly lost my life a few times. But… hehe, I’ve reached Extraordinary Second Rank,” Tang Huoyang winked.
“You’re doing well for yourself. We haven’t seen each other for so long, seems like going out to train really has its benefits,” Pei Jinye commended.
Tang Huoyang laughed, “Last month, I went to the Eastern Continent and met Sister Xiao Yong. She was asking about your cultivation progress.”
Pei Jinye chuckled, “Why didn’t she just message me directly? Last time I messaged her during the holidays, she didn’t even reply.”
Tang Huoyang shook his head, “Her phone broke. I couldn’t get in touch with her either. I happened to be going to the Eastern Continent, so I visited her at her school. There seemed to be some sort of research seminar happening that required selections. She preferred to cultivate rather than fix it. We only had a ten-minute meal together before she went back to cultivating… seriously, you two are real Cultivation Maniacs.”
Pei Jinye shook his head with a smile, “Let’s go, I’ll take you up. The three upstairs are all from our circle.”
“Sure, wait a minute.” Tang Huoyang suddenly paused, looking up at the sign overhead, “Pei’s? This is your place?”
Pei Jinye nodded with a smile, “Try it out and give me your feedback.”
“Look at you, haven’t seen you for a few months and now you’re a big boss,” Tang Huoyang patted Pei Jinye’s shoulder heartily, genuinely happy for his good friend.
Pei Jinye smiled as well.
He led Tang Huoyang upstairs to the private room.
“This is Brother Niu Fangbi.”
“Brother Bi, hello, I’m Tang Huoyang.”
“Hello, hello.”
“This is Zhou Ye.”
…
“This is Gu Wutong.”
“Gu Wutong? I know you.” The moment Tang Huoyang saw Gu Wutong, he immediately extended his hand, enthusiastically saying, “Did you used to serve in the Southern Continent’s Cobra Unit?”
“Eh, you know?” Gu Wutong was somewhat surprised.
“I had a teacher who also served in the Cobra Unit before, he mentioned you to me, you once killed an Awakener by yourself before you had even awakened.”
Both Brother Bi and Zhou Ye were shocked and looked at Gu Wutong: “Really? Were you that awesome before?”
Gu Wutong looked at Zhou Ye with annoyance: “Damn, what’s with that look? I was very awesome back then, okay?”
“Everyone, please sit down.” Pei Jinye, as the host, motioned with his hand.
Tang Huoyang wasn’t a shy person either.
Once the atmosphere heated up, he started to fraternize with Zhou Ye and Gu Wutong.
After a hearty meal and drinks to their hearts’ content.
Brother Bi and Pei Jinye each drove a car, setting off toward Gu Wutong’s private club.
Tang Huoyang and Gu Wutong scheduled a battle, both of them brought protective gear, using swords. However, Tang Huoyang used a two-handed sword, while Gu Wutong wielded a Horizontal Knife.
Brother Bi and Zhou Ye acted as the audience.
The bout turned out to be much simpler and more straightforward than what both of them had originally wanted.
Tang Huoyang’s Sword Technique had become much more fierce than before, which probably had to do with his travels.
A person who has truly faced life and death is indeed different from the average one.
Pei Jinye could even sense some faint murderous intent on him.
That’s definitely an aura only someone who has killed could possess.
Think about it, it makes sense.
To have improved this much in a matter of months, it wouldn’t be possible without having seen blood.
After ten moves.
Tang Huoyang’s two-handed sword thrust into Gu Wutong’s throat, but fortunately, it was blocked by the protective gear. However, he himself was cleaved by Gu Wutong in the chest, directly flying back and crashing into the wall.
“Crash!”
Dust scattered.
Both Brother Bi and Zhou Ye were startled.

“Damn, that was a fierce Sword Technique.” Zhou Ye cursed, his heart still racing as he looked at Tang Huoyang.
This young man, who didn’t even seem as hefty as himself, struck with an intensity like someone Experienced a hundred battles, he couldn’t help but turn his gaze to Pei Jinye.
Pei Jinye had already pulled Tang Huoyang up from the ground.
Tang Huoyang rubbed his chest: “Damn, brother, you’re pretty strong.”
He coughed violently a few times.
He coughed out the blood he had choked on from his chest and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth indifferently.
Gu Wutong said with annoyance: “If I weren’t strong, your two swords could have taken my life. But is Jack the Ripper Lin Shuguang your teacher? That move looks a little like his.”
“Haha, Lin Shuguang is indeed my teacher,” Tang Huoyang nodded and admitted.
Gu Wutong had an epiphany: “No wonder, Lin Shuguang was my instructor before, and his technique of gutting and belly slicing is quite famous. I once asked him to teach me, but he refused. I didn’t expect he would actually be willing to teach you. By the way, how is Instructor Lin now?”
“He’s doing great, just a few days ago, he boasted to me with a photo, he killed a hundred-meter Giant Python in the Southern Continent Jungle,” Tang Huoyang said with a smile.
Gu Wutong chuckled: “Instructor Lin is still vigorous despite his age.”
He tore off the Armor he was wearing.
Just when he was about to invite them for tea, Tang Huoyang suddenly turned to Pei Jinye: “Jinye, how about crossing swords a couple of times?”
Everyone was taken aback.
Gu Wutong shook his head and chuckled.
This kid…
Seemed a bit over his head.
“Sure.”
Pei Jinye agreed readily.
Tang Huoyang took a deep breath, holding his swords in both hands: “Get ready, my strike will be very fast.”
Pei Jinye nodded: “Alright, begin whenever you’re ready.”
“Then I’m attacking—Bang!”
Tang Huoyang’s swords were directly knocked aside, and he himself slammed into the wall, coughing up all the remaining blood in his chest.
“Damn!!! Cough, cough, cough!”
Gu Wutong passed him a towel, shaking his head: “You really are… Old Pei is now at Extraordinary Third Rank, powerful as a bull. Even I’m no match for him, and you wanted to challenge him.”
“It’s unreal.” Tang Huoyang waved his hand, finally feeling his breath clear up, lowering his head to look at the now-bent two-handed sword, and said in amazement: “Too outrageous, I thought I’d at least catch up a bit with how fast I’ve improved, but I can’t keep up at all.”
Gu Wutong looked at him and raised his thumb: “Admirable courage, but don’t be discouraged. Being able to fight me to a draw means you have a solid foundation.”
Zhou Ye, seeing this youngster flattering himself, just couldn’t take it anymore.
Pei Jinye looked at Tang Huoyang: “Your swordsmanship’s ferocity is there, but your Vitality is too weak. You haven’t been practicing ‘Drawing Blood Art’, have you?”
“No,” Tang Huoyang shook his head. “I heard about what happened to Teacher Chang and stopped cultivating it.”
“You’re foolish. Though he made a mistake, the Cultivation Technique isn’t deviant or wicked. What are you afraid of?” Pei Jinye continued, “The ‘Drawing Blood Art’ is helpful for you. You should diligently practice it, strengthen your Vitality, and it will also enhance your physique. In the future when you wield your swordsmanship, its power could be more than tripled.”
Tang Huoyang was taken aback.
At that moment, Brother Yang patted his shoulder: “Brother, I advise you to listen to Old Pei. What he says is right. The reason I could break through to the Second Rank was because I chatted with him whenever I had the chance.”
Tang Huoyang’s expression became even more shocked.
After a few months apart… My goodness, Pei Jinye, this little brother, only seemed more inscrutable.
