Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Twofold Preparations, Strength is the Hero’s Courage

”Oh, a woman from the family?”

”Lift your head and let me see.”

Peng Wei’s face was indifferent as he spoke to Su Weiwei.

Hearing this, Su Weiwei looked up, revealing a sallow and black face, full of freckles.

Clearly a village ugly woman.

The kind that made people’s stomachs churn.

”Get aside.”

”Where did this ugly woman come from? Get out of here immediately.”

Peng Wei shouted, swearing.

Although his master, the Bat King Yang Qin, indeed had an insatiable appetite for women, he wasn’t desperate.

If it’s not a beauty, how could Yang Qin be interested?

If he really brought such a rural ugly woman back, his master would probably tear him apart.

He might think there’s discontent against him.

It could be a capital crime.

”This.”

Many villagers watching were amazed at this scene.

They hadn’t expected that after some time, Su Weiwei had turned like this.

She was a beautiful lass before, but now she’s so ugly.

Undoubtedly, it must be Jiang Fan, that guy’s doing.

Couldn’t even support his wife.

After starving for so long and falling ill, she was damaged beyond recognition.

Each looked at Su Weiwei with pity.

However, they didn’t find it strange, as most women in Osmanthus Village looked like this.

Starving for so long, where would there be good-looking ones?

”Yes, sir.”

Jiang Fan nodded, immediately pulling Su Weiwei’s hand to stand aside, calm and composed.

It seemed his disguise technique was indeed good, easily fooling them.

The afternoon passed.

The villagers handed over their money, avoiding disaster by losing wealth.

However, in Osmanthus Village, not a single woman caught Peng Wei’s eye, which displeased him greatly.

”What kind of lousy village is this, not a single pretty woman.”

”What kind of crooked melons and cracked dates are the women of this village.”

”How am I supposed to report to Lord Yang Qin then?”

Peng Wei cursed under his breath.

Hearing this, the women of Osmanthus Village were furious and annoyed, they were indeed ugly, but not worthy of such cursing.

But they couldn’t be blamed.

Women of this era couldn’t eat well or dress warmly, were slim, with dark skin, and quickly aged under the elements, with no cosmetics to defy fate.

Looking ugly was natural.

Most beauties came from the noble families.

Yet they felt fortunate, it was actually a blessing not to be wanted.

At least wouldn’t fall into the hands of thieves and die miserably.

”Let’s go.”

However, Peng Wei didn’t stay further. He waved a hand, signaled a group of Red Eyebrow Army soldiers, and immediately left.

Since there were no women that Lord Yang Qin needed here, he would search elsewhere.

Instantly, Red Eyebrow Army soldiers swiftly vanished within Osmanthus Village.

This allowed many fishermen to breathe a sigh of relief.

Though they lost much money, they weren’t deprived of their lives.

That was a blessing within disaster.

Thump!

Just then, a message came from the depths of Jiang Fan’s consciousness: ”Obey and pay the money, have your wife Su Weiwei disguise herself, the Red Eyebrow Army leader Peng Wei thinks you pose no threat, successfully evaded a murder crisis, gained 120 Luck Points and one Ninth-Grade Opportunity.”

What?!

Perceiving this message, Jiang Fan instantly rejoiced, as with these 120 Luck Points, he now had 410, not far off from obtaining 500 Luck Points.

That meant he might soon become a Bone Forging Realm Martial Artist.

After this experience, his need for martial might became ever more urgent.

Mere Strong Sinew Realm strength was too weak for this chaotic world.

At least he’d have to become a Refining Organ Realm Martial Artist, even a Grandmaster, to be adequate.

”Yet another Ninth-Grade Opportunity?”

Jiang Fan lightly tapped, then another message came.

”Five days later in the afternoon, head northeast thirteen miles from Osmanthus Village’s dock, cast nets to fish, then obtain the Ninth-Grade Opportunity.”

Perceiving this message, he felt quite joyful.

This Ninth-Grade Opportunity was likely Treasure Fish.

For the number of Treasure Fish, more was better.

Because after becoming a Strong Sinew Realm Martial Artist, his appetite grew larger.

If he could get some Treasure Fish, he could greatly save on food.

At the same time, Treasure Fish was also very beneficial for Martial Dao cultivation.

”Right, I still have an Eighth-Grade Opportunity.”

”But it can be obtained in three days.”

Jiang Fan was very expectant, thinking if he could get these two opportunities, then his advancement to Bone Forging Realm would definitely have no problem.

Whoosh!

Before long, villagers went home.

Jiang Fan also took Su Weiwei back to his house.

”Husband, it was really dangerous earlier.”

”Luckily husband helped disguise me before, changed my appearance.”

”Or else I’d surely be captured by those bastards.”

Su Weiwei showed a look of residual fear.

Without a doubt, if she showed her original appearance, she’d definitely tempt those from the Red Eyebrow Army.

She’d be captured and taken to the Red Eyebrow Army.

Thankfully, her husband was very cautious, with exceptional skills, or it would surely be a disaster.

It’s very challenging for ordinary people to survive in such chaotic times.

A slight carelessness could lead to death.

It’s truly a treacherous path.

”Don’t worry, even if those guys really try to grab you, I won’t let them succeed.”

Jiang Fan embraced Su Weiwei, comforting her.

That’s indeed the case.

He had prepared two plans long before.

If the disguise technique could fool those Red Eyebrow Army soldiers, all the better, passing this disaster easily.

If those Red Eyebrow Army soldiers found out about Su Weiwei’s trick and intended to act against her.

Then he wouldn’t show mercy.

Using the strength of the Strong Sinew Realm, Mastery Level swordsmanship, and the Divine Blade Chengying Sword, he had no problem slaughtering these Red Eyebrow Army soldiers.

From a certain perspective, those Red Eyebrow Army soldiers had decent luck.

Otherwise, today would be their death day.

Of course, after doing these things, staying in Osmanthus Village wouldn’t be feasible, needing to flee far away.

Fortunately, it hadn’t reached the worst situation.

”Husband, love me.”

Su Weiwei gazed at Jiang Fan with fiery eyes, feeling she needed the love of her man to soothe her soul and calm her inner unease.

Hearing this, Jiang Fan couldn’t resist, immediately lifting the fiery woman by the waist, carrying her straight into the bedroom.

Soon the bed swayed, covers turned.

Outside, the north wind howled, biting cold, but it didn’t affect the heated atmosphere inside.
