The Empress’s Gigolo Chapter 523

Chapter 523 - Breakthrough

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Ren Baqian felt countless small flames all over his body that were burning every piece of his flesh. It was like tempering steel and ridding the impurities from his body.

A black discharge oozed out from his body and was flushed away by the river water.

However, other people couldn’t see this clearly since Ren Baqian was generating steam from his body and it looked like there was a fog around him.

There was also an earth-shattering change in his brain.

The fiery world in his body began to subside. Like a volcano crumbling, the lava flew in all directions and the winds howled. A portion of the metal chain and spear that were comfortably soaking their legs in the lava, suddenly emerged out of Ren Baqian’s head.

The metal chain tied Ren Baqian up tightly.

The spear didn’t have as many requirements as the metal chain and seemed to be weightless as it stayed suspended in the air beside him. The river water that hit the spear directly separated into two streams.

The empress stood at the riverbank, looked at the mist surrounding the figure in the river, and kept silent.

Although the effect of the xueke was pretty good, it only targeted Ren Baqian.

She could easily disperse the effects of this type of medicine, so there wasn’t any need to worry.

Even though this was the case, she still stood by and watched quietly from the side.

“Actual Heaven-grade weapons?” Li Fu suddenly appeared beside the empress. He looked surprised.

Li Fu was still dressed like a beggar; his clothes were tattered, and his hair messy. Although Ren Baqian had sent him some new clothes, he simply didn’t care.

To him, there was no difference between new clothes and torn clothes.

He had already lived for 200 years, and material things didn’t matter to him anymore.

When Ren Baqian was being hastily put in the river, Li Fu had noticed. Subsequently, he discovered the tiny fluctuations emitted by a Heaven-grade weapon. He didn’t expect to see such a scene here.

He could clearly feel the imprint of Ren Baqian on these two Heaven-grade weapons.

Ordinary people judged others by their outlook or smell. At his level, he could differentiate a person based on their spirit. The look and smell could change, but not one’s spirit.

“This is strange! This fellow is obviously a Man Wheel expert—why would he have a Heaven-grade weapon? Let alone two?!” Li Fu was surprised.

The empress took two steps to the side to move further away from Li Fu.

She felt that Li Fu had body odor… She could treat him with respect due to the fact that he was the world’s most powerful expert, but this didn’t mean that she could endure his smell.

She was totally not interested in answering his question.

Li Fu thought for a long time, but failed to understand the key points. He finally gave up and decided to ask the young man when he woke up.

After a long time, Ren Baqian felt himself regaining control of his body.

The first thing he had to face was being tied up by the metal chain.

Fortunately, when he recovered, both the metal chain and the spear immediately moved back inside his head and became dumbfounded. What happened to the volcano and the lava? Why was there only a desert left now?

How would they soak their legs? How would they soak in a warm bath?

They were deprived even of their only pleasures.

The two objects were stunned and tried to get out after a while to confront Ren Baqian, but they were suppressed by the empress with one finger.

Seeing that Ren Baqian was unharmed, the empress sent the two objects flying by flicking her finger. Thereafter, she went back to continue thinking about what she needed to do in order to achieve the level of Li Fu.

“Why do you have Heaven-grade weapons? How is this possible?” Li Fu couldn’t wait to ask when Ren Baqian reached the shore. “Furthermore, you have two! Even I only have one!”

“Maybe it’s because I’m a genius! That’s why you are doing the right thing by teaching me your skills because I’m the only one who can develop these skills further. Indigo blue comes from the indigo plant, but is bluer.” Ren Baqian couldn’t resist throwing a few punches. His speed was much faster, and the punches carried the sound of blowing winds.

His body moved more than ten meters with his feet slightly touching the ground.

The heart is associated with fire, houses the spirit, and governs the whole body. After completing the [Visualization of Fire], the coordination of his whole body had improved. His strength and speed were enhanced quite a bit. Although he hadn’t tested himself out yet, he could feel the harmony in his body and a sense of control over it.

This was the first time he had felt this way, and he was one step closer to the Earth Wheel level. The next two stages to aim for were the [Visualization of Earth] and the [Visualization of Water].

Within one year, he not only reached the Man Wheel level, but also attained its intermediate level by breaking through three visualization concepts. Ren Baqian felt that he should consider himself a genius!

“Something isn’t right. Your spear belonged to Teng Yue. I have seen him once before. Why is his Spirit Spear with you? Furthermore, it’s integrated inside your Spirit Depository and waiting for you to become a Spirit Wheel expert so that it can be used without restriction. How is this possible?” Li Fu kept on questioning him.

Apart from the deities and the heavens, only matters that were never seen or heard of before, like what was happening with Ren Baqian, could attract Li Fu’s attention.

“Regarding the metal chain, I have never seen it before, but it doesn’t belong to you either! How could they be in your body?”

“This is because they came to realize that they had no future with their original masters and have forsaken darkness for light! Instead of having no future with their original owners, who only knew how to fight every day, they can eat well, drink well, and soak their legs by following me,” Ren Baqian replied.

“Impossible! Although Heaven-grade weapons are formed out of spirits, they do not have their own consciousness!” Li Fu said seriously.

“Ask them if you don’t believe me!” Ren Baqian said as he spread out his arms.

“That’s not right—something is definitely wrong!” Li Fu’s eyebrows were furrowed like a Shar-Pei dog. His messy hair was swaying nonstop as he just couldn’t understand the possibility of such a thing.

He wished he had read more. He had been searching for the deities all these years and didn’t know much about many secrets. Otherwise, he would certainly be able to figure out this secret.

Ren Baqian practiced some killer punches. Each punch was accompanied by the sound of whistling wind, and every step created a deep imprint on the ground.

He looked at the imprints he left behind and felt satisfied because they were now deeper by about half.

He looked up at Li Fu and saw that he was still frowning and thinking hard. Ren Baqian said, “Senior, since you can’t understand, then…”

“No need to say anymore. I will surely find out the reason!” Li Fu raised his hand to stop Ren Baqian from speaking.

He was the world’s most powerful expert and knew more about this topic than most people. If other people could conceive of it, it was impossible for him to fail to figure it out.

Was there something he didn’t understand?

Did you misunderstand anything?

There’s nothing that I plan to tell you?

My meaning is, since you can’t figure it out, stop thinking then!

“Well, that’s fine. Senior, when can you teach me your ‘Godly Strike?’” Ren Baqian asked.

“In a few days. Wait until I understand this problem and then I will teach you!” Li Fu put his hands behind his back and bowed his head while meditating and thinking. He mumbled as he walked, “Why? Why’s it like this? How’s it done? Why?”

Ren Baqian felt faint when he heard this. If Li Fu couldn’t find out the reason during his lifetime, his skills would be buried with him!

The problem was that the probability of Li Fu figuring things out during his lifetime was extremely low.
