Chapter 215: Chapter 215 Outrageous (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

After taking the Body Tempering Pills, both of them had a good cultivation effect throughout the morning.

Xu Leigang was very satisfied with the cultivation process. He discovered that his inner breath had grown stronger and the circulation process also became smoother, “Indeed, it’s good stuff.”

However, Feng Jun was not very satisfied with him because… during the time when the medicine’s effect was at its peak, Fatty Xu did not seize the time to practice the Cultivation Technique.

Although this guy is a military child, his tolerance for pain is so-so, and he is quite impulsive in nature.

The serious one is Wang Haifeng. Even though he has been quite spoiled since childhood and acts with a sense of uninhibited freedom, once he sets his mind to something, he really has the vibe of someone playing for keeps — he was actually able to bear the pain and continue his practice!

You have to understand, practicing this Cultivation Technique is not simply an action. A slight miss can lead to a grave error; the serious ones could even fall into devilry.

To give an example, Wang Haifeng and Xu Leigang were cultivating different techniques.

How big is the difference between these two techniques? Frankly speaking, not much!

At the entry stage of their training, all Cultivation Techniques adhere to the same principles, but even so, the two of them have already embarked on different paths.

Such slight differences can lead to such big disparities.

Wang Haifeng’s willingness to endure the pain and practice was truly a sign of his tenacity.

Fortunately, it is at this stage that making a little mistake isn’t too serious — many cultivators in the Cultivation Plane practiced in the same way; especially younger people whose bones and bodies haven’t fully developed yet have strong plasticity, so the pain of body tempering is not as intense as it is for adults.

Feng Jun was prepared to intervene at any time, but after observing for a while, he found that this fellow’s practice process was generally on track with no major issues.

As the effects of the pill gradually subsided and the pain lessened, the likelihood of making mistakes basically decreased even more.

In fact, the one who benefited the most from persevering was Wang Haifeng himself. Through practice, the medicinal properties of the Body Tempering Pill were maximally promoted in his blood, with no waste whatsoever.

Both of them had been moving their blood and qi all morning and when they stopped at noon, they were covered in sweat.

Xu Leigang was already well-practiced in this routine. He got up and ran downstairs, heading straight to the bathroom of a guest room, “No way, I need to take a shower first!”

Wang Haifeng also felt that something was amiss. Hearing Xu Leigang’s words and taking a sniff himself, he suddenly smelled a foul odor and couldn’t help but retch, “Shoot, I need to take a shower too~”

It was forty minutes later when he finished showering and emerged.

Coach Wang had a bath towel wrapped around his waist and another draped over his shoulder. He stood in the guest room, peering out, “Leigang, do you have a change of clothes?”

Xu Leigang, who was sitting on the sofa peeling oranges, spat out a seed and replied leisurely, “Didn’t you bring clothes with you?”

“I brought practice clothes, who brings underwear?” Wang Haifeng replied with a troubled look, “Those clothes stink so much I can’t wear them… Could you go out and buy me a set?”

Xu Leigang glared at him irritably, “Look how entitled you are… one thousand for a set, I’ll have Xiao Li buy it.”

“No problem,” Wang Haifeng nodded without hesitation. For him, money was never an issue, and at that moment, he was in a really good mood, “I’ll get you a set too.”

“I’m just kidding,” Xu Leigang laughed and pulled a box from under the coffee table, placing it on top, “Alright, here is a full set of underwear, go put it on.”

It turned out that Fatty Xu had prepared multiple sets of underwear in advance, afraid that they might encounter this problem during cultivation, and he also prepared two sets for Wang Haifeng.

After changing into clean clothes, Wang Haifeng curiously asked, “How come you’re prepared for everything?”

Xu Leigang looked at him and replied proudly, “I’ve been eating for ten more years than you, you think I’ve just been messing around all this time?”

As they joked around with each other, Feng Jun and Li Xiaobin returned, bringing back lunch they had packed from the restaurant.

In the afternoon, Feng Jun received a call from the capital. It was from Li Ting, who said that the goods in Myanmar were ready, “Master Feng, you can go to Macau and lose some money now,” she said with a jest—but of course, going to Myanmar first was also an option, especially since Xu Leigang guaranteed it.

Feng Jun thought about it and decided to send Xu Leigang to Macau, while he would make a solo trip to Myanmar; otherwise, if over a hundred tons of military hardware suddenly disappeared, it would probably scare anyone to death, right?

Xu Leigang smacked his lips when he heard it, “Good thing I’ve already processed my military transfer; otherwise, I really couldn’t go to Macau.”

After a pause, he spoke up again, “So I’ll make a quick trip and then go to Myanmar with you?”

He was well aware of the contents of the deal, among the three people present, only Wang Haifeng was clueless about the situation.

“You don’t need to go to Myanmar,” Feng Jun shook his head, “I’ll go alone.”

“How can that be,” Xu Leigang became anxious upon hearing that, and glanced at Wang Haifeng, “How about letting Haifeng accompany you on the trip?”

Wang Haifeng was completely baffled, “Go to Myanmar?”

“No need, I’ll go alone,” Feng Jun declared firmly, leaving no room for negotiation, “Lei Gang, you can take him with you to Macau, you’ve been cultivating for quite a few days now, good opportunity to relax a bit.”

Xu Leigang hesitated before speaking up, “If we both leave, who will watch the house? It might be better for Haifeng to stay behind, to continue his cultivation and house-sitting.”

He had a vague idea that the jade in the house was probably valued in the billions.

But Wang Haifeng didn’t want to watch the house alone either; despite his fierce approach to cultivation when comparing to Xu Leigang, he didn’t like to lose, but at heart, he was someone who loved to have fun, with his greatest pursuit in life being to enjoy it.

Without anyone to cultivate with, he felt it was dull to practice alone. Since it had been a long time since his last break, he thought it would be a good idea to go out and unwind, “I’m not interested in gambling anyway, better to go with you to Myanmar.”

Feng Jun glanced at him disapprovingly, “You wish you were gambling, this time you’re going with Lei Gang to lose money… Go early and come back soon.”

When Wang Haifeng heard the words “lose money,” he guessed what it was about and nodded, “Alright, no problem, I’ll protect Lei Gang and complete the task as soon as possible.”

Both men were of a straightforward disposition; once they decided to leave, they immediately booked a flight for the next day and headed straight for Macau.

As soon as they left, Feng Jun, who had intended to leave as well, reconsidered, thinking about the many valuable items in the villa that needed someone to watch over them, concerned about the headache he’d have if they were burglarized.

He dared to leave Wang Haifeng or Xu Leigang alone to guard the house because both were trustworthy, but with Li Xiaobin, there was still a lack of trust—actually, even if he lost all the jade, it wouldn’t matter; he could always bring over another batch from the mobile phone plane.

But the unpleasant feeling of losing possessions was something he did not want to experience again.

Three days later, Xu Leigang and Wang Haifeng returned, having successfully lost a large sum of money in Macau as they’d intended.

According to the two of them, when they exchanged money for chips, they used a code, and the casino immediately arranged someone to gamble against them. They played Texas Hold’em, in a VIP room.

In any case, Xu Leigang followed every hand, and so did the other side. After a certain point, Xu Leigang started to fold—maintaining this rhythm until they had lost all the money they intended to lose.

In Wang Haifeng’s words, it was tremendously boring, even though they occasionally won once or twice. But as long as one wasn’t blind, one could see that this was a blatant transfer of funds.

The two had spent roughly three hours completing the task. They hadn’t brought much money in the first place, but the VIP room had handy boys providing various loan services.

Seeing that they had stopped playing, some casino runners wanted to continue lending, but were stopped by the casino—not just anyone could prey on their big clients.

The casino was somewhat considerate, however, giving each of them HK$50,000 in chips and made it clear—this was for casual play, and whatever they won or lost would be purely for their enjoyment, entirely unrelated to the previous transactions.

Since the profits had come from their losses—they were out several tens of millions— it didn’t hurt for others to get a little bit of the action.

Xu Leigang and Wang Haifeng didn’t hesitate and went straight out to gamble. Coach Wang did not take long to lose all of his chips, while Xu Leigang won over HK$30,000 and promptly left the table.

Instead of coming straight back, the two first stopped in Guangzhou to settle accounts with the casino runners before returning to Zhengyang.

Feng Jun wasn’t particularly concerned with the details of the process; what was important to him was that the other party acknowledged the debt was cleared. The extra millions in handling fees didn’t bother him, so he grabbed his backpack and set off for Yunnan Province.

Before leaving, he assigned them a task—to adjust to the next two days of cultivation, and on the third day, continue taking the remaining half of the Body Tempering Pills.

Seeing him leave so nonchalantly, Wang Haifeng couldn’t help but worry a bit, “Lao Xu, Master Feng going alone… He won’t encounter any danger, right? I heard that Myanmar can be pretty chaotic.”

“Worrying about it now is useless,” Xu Leigang seemed to have come to terms with it, “Our task is to take care of the house, and besides… we shouldn’t interrupt our cultivation. Master Feng has high expectations for us.”

Wang Haifeng had already gotten over his awkward feelings, because, from personal experience, he knew how rare it was for Feng Jun to provide cultivation techniques and pills.

Hearing this, he expressed his concern with a frown, “I’m thinking, maybe we should inform Sister Hong? She seems to have some influence there.”

“I advise you to save your breath,” Xu Leigang shook his head, “The thing he’s going there to do, you must have guessed it by now. The more people who know, the more likely it could cause complications.”

Wang Haifeng sighed heavily, frustrated, but he had no choice but to put aside these distractions and begin his cultivation.

However, while they were not planning to tell Sister Hong, the next morning, one of her people arrived at Peach Blossom Valley.

At that time, the two men were inside cultivating, when suddenly the doorbell rang. They checked the surveillance to find a strikingly beautiful foreign woman with an exotic air about her.

Wang Haifeng was instantly stupefied, “Wow, is this… a Russian girl? Or Ukrainian?”

The beautiful woman waved at the camera and spoke in fluent Chinese, “Hello, may I ask if Feng Jun is here?”

(It’s the third day of the New Year already; time flies, doesn’t it? For those waiting for the double update, have you cast your monthly ticket?)
