Chapter 1

It's August, and the sun in the sky still looks like the city's name is Hot Sun.In the square in the heart of the city, the mirror-like granite reflected beams of white light, making it so that no one dared to open their eyes.At noon, it was the most peaceful time in the square.Several young men in tattered clothes reached out and squatted down, holding half a piece of steamed bun that was as hard as stone and roasting it.A skinny youngster wearing a gray sackcloth walked out of the alley.
He stopped in front of the stone steps of the square and took out a pair of two-inch-tall shoes.
He tied them to the cloth shoes with a cloth strip.The youths with roasted buns stared at the young man's broad forehead.
A tall and sturdy Ah Hu stood up and mocked, "Zhang Jianfu, what test did you do again?
It's been three to four years.
Why don't you give us the five cents to sell and eat?"After saying that, he put down the steamed bun in his hand, waved at the other teenagers, and ran over.Zhang Jianfu hurriedly knotted the cloth strip in his hand and leapt onto the square.
Then, he ran towards the only public Qi Test Stone in the entire city.
After running for dozens of steps, he turned around and glanced at Ahu.
When he saw that Ahu had turned around, he revealed a smug smile.There was a pavilion next to the air-testing stone.
There was an old man seated at the pavilion's entrance, his face gleaming with oil.
Along with the grey clothes he wore, he looked a bit like an immortal.The old man was the largest cultivation sect in the vicinity, the Flaming Flame Sect.
He was stationed in Sun City, and was in charge of recruiting disciples, Xu Xinghai."Brat, why are you here again?
You've been here seven times this month."Xu Xinghai pointed at the Qi Stones and asked Zhang Jianfu to follow him with a smile, "Have you accumulated enough money?
Don't look like you're still missing two copper coins from me."Zhang Jianfu smiled like a flower.
"I dug up a Saint Spirit Grass yesterday.
It was fifty years old and received sixty percent of money.""What?"Xu Xinghai couldn't believe it.
Why did this brat always run into dog shit luck?
He had been like this for several years.When he first arrived in Sun City, Zhang Jianfu had come to take the test three times in a month.
He guessed that this was the child of that large family.
However, when he asked around, he found out that it was an orphan.
He usually worked in restaurants to survive, and occasionally went to the mountains outside the city to dig for spiritual herbs.Xu Xinghai was startled.
He thought to himself that this was something that the underworld faction had focused on grooming.
It had to be known that they had to pay five copper coins for each test.
As for the five copper coins, as far as the Sun City was concerned, it would allow the three families to have a good time of three months.It had been a long time since he'd learnt that Zhang Jianfu's money had come to his aid.
This was something that everyone in Yantian City would be envious of.
Not to mention that it was far away, but in the last three months, Zhang Jianfu had been able to dig up more than a dozen spirit medicines, and he'd managed to pick up a damaged spirit weapon over twenty times.
As for what kind of ordinary broken silver, it was even more difficult to remember.If I had such good luck, I would have already become an almighty being.
Then I would still be in mortal cities guarding the Qi Stones.
Xu Xinghai said enviously as he reached out his hand to Zhang Jianfu, "Brat, you're so lucky.
I hope you can detect some spiritual energy this time."Zhang Jianfu first took out the five copper coins, then took out the five scattered coins from his chest and handed them to Xu Xinghai.Xu Xinghai put away the money and walked towards the Qi Test Stone.
He asked Zhang Jianfu to put his hand on it and said, "Calm down, calm down and try hard."Zhang Jianfu closed his eyes as he spoke.
After a while, countless rays of starlight rushed towards him, drilling into his body and into his meridians.
Xu Xinghai waited for half an hour.
Although Zhang Jianfu's body emitted a layer of white mist-like light, the Qi Test Stones didn't shine, and didn't even emit a faint light.Xu Xinghai pondered for a moment before asking, "Brat, that's enough.
Let me ask you, have you practiced it in private?"After two years of contact with Zhang Jianfu, Xu Xinghai saw that Zhang Jianfu's temperament wasn't bad, so he decided to stay hidden and teach Zhang Jianfu a set of breathing techniques."Yes, I practice for at least six hours a day."Zhang Jianfu opened his eyes and unwillingly withdrew his hand.
From Xu Xinghai's tone, it was obvious that he had failed again.He stared at the Qi Test Stone.
It was clearly the same as what others had said, so why couldn't he test it out?Now it was Xu Xinghai's turn.
Zhang Jianfu's suffering reputation was known to all women and children in Yantian City, just like his luck.
He pulled Zhang Jianfu closer, took a closer look, and then shook his head.
This situation was beyond his capabilities.
"How could this be?
A Qiu, that unlucky bastard, was also taught by me.
He's already in the third level of Qi Mastery."..."The A Qiu that Xu Xinghai spoke of, apart from eating and sleeping every day, caused people to forget his real name.His family was a well-known financial backer in Yan Ri City, and the infamous Fuze Teahouse was his family's property.
In order to allow Roca to enter a cultivation sect, his father would throw several hundred silver taels each time.
There were countless times, but he still didn't send Roca in.Two years ago, a white-bearded old Daoist told his father that he knew an elder from the Flame School.
However, if he wanted to give him more money, he would be able to bring Rika into the Flame School.
He even pretended to take his father around the Flame School.His father thought that the old daoist had finally remembered him.
Under the old daoist's instigation, he gritted his teeth and sold the Fuze Tea Shop.
The old daoist even said that the money wasn't enough.
He gave all of his properties and the ancestral mansion to someone else and brought money to the Flaming Flame School.
The old daoist received the money but turned around and refused to acknowledge him.
He even sent people to beat up his father and father until they died half a day after returning to Yan Ri City.His mother couldn't accept this fact.
She vomited blood in anger and died.From then on, he became a member of the army of orphans in Yantian City.Some people said that he was Heaven Sha's Lonely Star, so who would he defeat?No one wanted him to do miscellaneous chores.
Every day, he had to pick up leftovers to live.Half a year later, he heard people say that Zhang Caifu was extremely lucky and kind-hearted, so he lazily pestered him.
He was hungry, so he came to look for Zhang Caifu.Three months ago, Zhang Jianfu had extorted a sum of money from Zhang Jianfu and bought a cultivation method from Xu Xinghai.
However, he was too lazy.
He cultivated for less than two hours a day, and then he began to sleep and sleep.
However, in this way, his cultivation was still the highest among the orphans in Sun City.Thinking of this, Zhang Jianfu smiled bitterly.Xu Xinghai noticed that Zhang Jianfu's expression wasn't too good, so he comforted him, "The next time you come, you'll have to wait for a few more days.
Don't come here as soon as you have money, and try to pass the test before August 18th."Zhang Jianfu nodded.
August 18th was the day the Flaming Flame Sect would come to the Sun City to recruit disciples.
It was only 25 days.Zhang Jianfu had just taken a few steps when Xu Xinghai suddenly asked, "Brat, how old are you this year?"Zhang Jianfu turned around and bowed, "She'll be fifteen in October."A trace of treacherousness flashed across Xu Xinghai's eyes.
"Then you have to hurry.
You only have one chance to join the Flame School."Zhang Jianfu's face turned purple as if he had been struck by lightning.
His body swayed and he couldn't stand straight.Why is it so fast?
Why am I turning fifteen?What should I do?
What should I do?
Did I just say my father's last wish?Thinking of his father, Zhang Jianfu's tears streamed down his cheeks.Why can someone like A Qiu cultivate?
Why can't I?He didn't even know how he had managed to get out of the square.
He didn't even know how Ahu had approached him.Ahu grabbed Zhang Jianfu's collar and stretched out his hand to slap him.
At the corner of his eyes, he saw a figure running over from the other side of the square.
He immediately loosened his hand and took a few steps back timidly.
Then, like a mouse meeting a cat, he immediately ran away."Big Brother Caifu, what happened to you?"A round figure appeared in front of Zhang Jianfu and placed his hand intimately on his shoulder.
Then, he swept his sharp gaze across the roasted buns and roared, "Are you bullying Big Brother Fu?"Ahu wiped his body with his hand and pointed at the air-testing stone.
He said, "A Qiu, he just went to test his Qi." Then, he waved to the other youths, signaling them to stop roasting steamed buns.
Then, he ran into the alley like a gust of wind.A Qiu patted Zhang Caifu's back and pointed at the tavern across from him.
"Didn't I not detect any spiritual energy?
Is it worse than starving?"Zhang Jianfu raised his head numbly and looked at Raka.A Qiu stared at Zhang Jianfu's pale eyes, and then suddenly grabbed onto Zhang Jianfu's clothes, shook them, and roared, "Zhang Jianfu, I look down on you.
This isn't the last step, so why do you have no fighting spirit?
Look at your sister and fianct his nose, "Don't tell anyone that you're my friend."Zhang Jianfu was a little surprised as he stared at the meat-covered face.His mood became even more rueful.In Zhang Jianfu's mind, A Qiu was the only one who liked to eat and be lazy.
Who would have thought that he would still have such lofty aspirations?
That's right, he hadn't reached the final step yet.
Why was he so pessimistic?
Hadn't he always been lucky?
Perhaps he would be able to pick up an Immortal Pill tomorrow and become a supreme figure like a Heavenly Supreme?.Who would have thought that he still hid such a heroic ambition?
Yes, he had yet to reach the last step, so why was he so pessimistic?
He had always been lucky, so maybe he would be able to pick up an immortal pill tomorrow and become a big shot like a Heavenly Sovereign.Besides, if he didn't want to live for himself, he would have to live on for his sister, Xiaolian.Zhang Jianfu wiped his wet eyes, walked up to A Qiu, and thanked him.Waving his hand, A Qiu looked at the pub in front of him and said, "Then treat me to a meal of meat.
I've been starving for a whole day."Zhang Jianfu took out the money in his pocket and counted it.
He sighed, "I can only eat two pounds of meat and ten steamed buns."A Qiule couldn't wait anymore.
He pulled Zhang Jianfu and ran to the tavern.
"It's done.
You really are my lucky brother."The two of them had yet to reach the pub when the waiter in front of the counter saw the two in a hurry and shouted: "Is this still the same rule?"A Qiu grinned and replied, "Two pounds of braised pork and ten meat buns."Zhang Jianfu frowned.
He didn't have enough money in his arms.
He shouted, "I don't want meat buns.
I want ten buns."The waiter turned around and shouted towards the inner room.
"A portion of braised meat, ten steamed buns." He gestured for the two of them to sit down.The two of them had just sat down when Xiaoer brought the meat and steamed buns over.A Qiu unceremoniously picked up his chopsticks, grabbed a lump of meat, and slinked it into his mouth.
Then, he wolfed it down and swallowed it down.
His other hand unwillingly grabbed the steamed bun and placed it in his mouth.
There was an additional hole.Zhang Jianfu looked at A Qiu's expression and thought about how he would have to pay the money first.
Otherwise, he would definitely say that it wasn't enough.
If he had another one, he would have to eat the northwest wind tomorrow.
When Zhang Jianfu paid the money and picked up his chopsticks, there were less than three clumps of braised meat left, and there were only five steamed buns left.He had just chewed two mouthfuls of meat, and the sound of a drink caused his eyes to widen."Zhang Jianfu, that brat, you really are here."A middle-aged man dressed in luxurious clothes walked into the room.
His eyes were sharp as knives, and his gaze swept across Zhang Jianfu's face from the counter.Twisting his sleeves, he walked over."Run, A Qiu."Zhang Jianfu looked at this man, and a murderous intent surged in his heart.
The chopsticks in his hands swooshed out, and then he pulled A Qiu, who was still stuffing meat into his mouth, and ran back to the back door.
