Chapter 59 A Show of Extravagance (2/2)

However, after returning home and using one of the three bottles that Zhou Donghuang had given him, he was even more stunned after practicing for a while.

“This… this qi-gathering elixir… somehow… increases your sensitivity to qi by six… sixty percent?!”

In the past, Lu Qinghu used Zhou Donghuang’s elixir that could increase the sensitivity to qi by twenty percent. But today, the three bottles that Zhou Donghuang had given him were ones that Zhou Donghuang had been using for himself, a qi-gathering elixir that could increase the sensitivity to qi by sixty percent.

“Young Master Donghuang… who on earth is he?!”

After getting over his dazed shock, Lu Qinghu carefully took out the remaining two bottles of qi-gathering elixir. His gaze, as he looked at these two bottles, was strangely bright, like the eyes of a pervert looking at two beauties.

From using an elixir that increased the sensitivity to qi by twenty percent, to the new one that increased the sensitivity to qi by sixty percent caused such a huge impact to Lu Qinghu that only he himself would know.

“Looks like, if we continue to follow Young Master Donghuang… our Lu family can become a grand family, even a tycoon family or even kings in the future!” Lu Qinghu’s eyes shone brightly as he grew even more determined to latch onto Zhou Donghuang.

Of course, Zhou Donghuang knew nothing about this. He had given Lu Qinghu the elixir that increased sensitivity to qi by sixty percent because Lu Qinghu had been very efficient. Furthermore, after interacting with him for some time, he was quite satisfied with Lu Qinghu’s character.

March 25, 1228 of the Ziyun era.

A carriage drawn by three ferghana horses slowly rolled into the capital city of Yunfeng county, drawing the attention of passersby as it weaved through the traffic on the main roads. On both sides of the carriage, a man riding a ferghana horse stayed alongside the carriage like a shadow.

Five ferghana horses together was a majestic sight, and all heads turned to take a look.

As everybody watched on, the carriage stopped at the house of the preeminent Li family. Seeing this, many were shocked. “They… are going to the Li family?”

“I heard that the eldest daughter of the Li family had been married to the junior governor of the intermediate Guangling county… could it be that she’s back to visit her family?”

“Most likely.”

“Accordingly, the Wu family of the governor’s household of Guangling county is a grand family!”

“Only families with level-six adepts can become grand families… and the Wu family of the governor’s household in Guangling county is not just any ordinary grand family, it has many level-six adepts.”

“The governor’s household of Guangling county is much stronger than the one here in Yunfeng county.”

As everybody watched on, the two men flanking the carriage jumped off their horses in unison and stood guard on both sides of the carriage, surveying the area carefully.

“Young Master, Young Mistress, we’re here.”

Of the two men driving the carriage, one pulled open the curtain in the carriage while the other jumped off and lay on all fours on the ground.

Immediately after, everyone saw a young, handsome man with defined features dressed in luxurious clothing step out of the carriage and onto the back of the man lying on the floor.

“I was wondering why he was lying there… turns out he’s acting as a step for those in the carriage.”

“Poverty has restricted my imagination, who knew there was such a thing?”

“This is truly a first, the first time I’ve seen anything like this.”

Many onlookers gasped.

Soon after that young, handsome man had stepped out of the carriage, a young lady who was beautifully dressed up also stepped out of the carriage and onto the back of the man on the ground.

After getting out of the carriage, the lady naturally held the young man’s hand and walked towards the main door of the Li family house. The two men who had ridden the ferghana horses over followed behind the two of them, escorting them on both sides.

“Head Lady!”

“It’s Head Lady!”

The two Li disciples who had been standing at the main door had been rather dazed to see five ferghana horses appear, but as they saw the lady walking towards them, their eyes lit up.

Hearing this, the onlookers realized, “Indeed, it is Head Lady Li who had married into the governor’s household in Guangling county.”

“That means… the young man with Head Lady Li is Wu Nanxun, First Young Master of the Wu family, governor of Guangling prefecture?”

“He’s indeed the First Young Master of a grand family; what a show of extravagance.”
