Chapter 20: Breakthrough (1/2)

The next day, Lin Xiao decided to ration the fishes left. If they didn't do that, there was no doubt that all 11 fishes would be eaten with nothing left in just a few seconds.

”Are you going to go today, Brother?”

”Yes. After my practice, I'll go out and try to hunt.” Lin Xiao stretched his body. It didn't feel sore even after he ran a long time yesterday. Not bad at all. ”I have Old Man's old bow and I can make simple arrows with woods.”

”Okay.”

As Lin Xiao practiced with Wenren Yu's guidance, Lin Yun was following the same movement. It has been some time since Wenren Yu came, so his wounds were mostly healed. The medicine that he brought along with him was proven to be very good.

Crack! Crack!

The faint movement of Qi along with the sound of cracking attracted Lin Xiao's attention. He turned his head to look at his brother and grinned. ”You're now Body training rank 5.”

”Yes!” Lin Yun exclaimed happily.

Wenren Yu nodded his head. There were a lot of medicine within Lin Yun's body that was not absorbed properly. He had taught Lin Yun the basic cultivation method to absorb them all, which led to Lin Yun getting better. Now that the young boy had broken through, Wenren Yu felt happy.

Still, with the medicine inside Lin Yun's body, it should have been enough for him to reach rank 6 with no problem.

Or even higher.

He didn't know how much herbs Lin Yun had consumed all this time to make it possible, though.

”Now that you're already at rank 5, I don't need to worry so much when I'm leaving,” Lin Xiao said with a grin. The stronger Lin Yun was, the less worried he would be. After all, it was always his concern whenever he left the house for a long time. If there were some villagers who wanted to create trouble, he had to defend his brother.

Lin Yun nodded. ”I'll be even stronger than you, Brother.”

”Heh, big talk! I'm stronger!”

”Not for long!”

Wenren Yu shook his head and spoke out, ”If you don't hurry and finish your training, you'll be too late if you want to try hunting.”

”Ah! I nearly forgot about that!”

Lin Xiao quickly finished his training and then collected some strong branches before he skillfully used his knife to shape them. The tip of the arrow needed metal, but since they didn't have one, Lin Xiao used thin yet sharp stone to replace it. It was not as strong as metal, but it could cut.

The process didn't take a long time and Lin Xiao only made 10 arrows. He just had to make do with this number for now.

”I'm going now.”
