Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Xiao was actually not very interested in the words of the director.

What he wanted to do the most was to read books and increase his cultivation. Other than that, he was not interested in anything else in the secular world other than food.

The identity of a librarian was just a mask that he used to hide his true identity. At the same time, it was also so that he could better read books in the library.

If it was really about getting a promotion and a raise, Ye Xiao was willing to do nothing.

However, if it was about going out for training, then it was not possible.

It would waste too much time.

“How long does it take to go out and study?”

“About a month or so. The time is not long. Moreover, the Zhong provinces’ library is very big, and many cultivation techniques are more advanced.

“I think you should go over and take a look. Raise your vision and your ability.”

When Ye Xiao heard that, his eyes suddenly lit up.

It was not for other reasons, but for what the director had just said, the Zhong Library.

As the lifeline of the entire Zhong province’s economy and culture, the scale of the Zhong city far exceeded that of Jianghai city. Even if Jianghai city would expand in the future, at least it had not reached that level yet.

Therefore, he really should go out and take a look.

Perhaps he might even be able to grasp some decent martial arts techniques and martial arts knowledge that he had never understood before.

With that in mind, he nodded and agreed.

“Alright, then I’ll listen to your advice. I’ll go back and tell Yang Xi to work hard for the next few days and manage the area by herself.”

“There’s no need. I’ve already reported her to the higher-ups. She’s my niece. I just want to take this opportunity to train her. When the time comes, help me take care of her.”

“...

“But what about my area? Originally, it was only me and Yang Xi. Now, she’s gone too.”

“You don’t have to worry about that. I’ve already thought about it. Ask Liu Chengxun to send someone from next door to help you. You just have to tell him that it was me who said it.

“There are still two administrators in his district.”

“Alright, I got it.”

Ouyang Yunzhong nodded in satisfaction. Then, her expression became serious again.

“When you guys come back from your study this time, the expansion of the library should have been completed.

“At that time, many new books will be added.

“The new director should also come.

“In the past, if you guys made a small mistake or something, I could still protect you guys. But in the future, you have to behave yourself.

“In short, do a good job and your position won’t be low in the future.”

Ye Xiao nodded in response.

“Alright, let’s put it this way. I’ll put your name on the list later. You should get ready. We should set off the day after tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

After Ye Xiao left the director’s office, he arrived at his own area. Yang Xi had not returned yet. She was called into the director’s office after him. She might have something to tell him.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Ye Xiao went next door to look for Liu Chengxun.

He had just arrived when he saw Liu Chengxun from afar. He was staring at the pile of broken iron on the table in a daze. There was a hint of nostalgia in his expression. Clearly, he was a little sad.

Just as he was about to speak, Piao Jiansheng, who was reading at the side, made a silent gesture. Then, he whispered,

“Mr. Ye, Don’t disturb my master. Let him be alone for a while!”

Ye Xiao seemed to have thought of something and nodded.

Piao Jiansheng explained,

“That sword was left to my master by his master. It can be said to be an ancestral item of our sect. But the last time, when the alliance leader of the Beast God Alliance, Long Tu, came, he destroyed it. So recently, Master has been blaming himself. He often stared at this pile of broken swords in a daze.”

“I see.”

It was no wonder that Liu Chengxun felt a little sad when his ancestral item was destroyed.

However, he had also caused the sword to shatter in order to help Jianghai city, and he had almost died an unnatural death.

Moreover, he had also taken the initiative to help him with medicinal pills previously. He should have helped him both professionally and personally!

In any case, it was not a difficult matter for him.

Thinking of that, he walked forward.

“Old Liu.”

Liu Chengxun woke up and glanced at him.

“It’s Ye Xiao. What’s the matter?”

“The director wants me to go out and study for a month. Yang Xi, one of my subordinates, is also going, so there’s no one to help me look after the area this month. The director wants me to look for you. I hope that you can assign one of your subordinates to look after it for me.”

Liu Chengxun nodded.

“No problem. I’ll talk to them later and arrange for someone to go over.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

After pausing for a moment, Ye Xiao spoke again,

“Your sword is broken. Aren’t you going to find someone to fix it?”

Liu Chengxun shook his head.

“It might not be easy to find. The power of this sword has already reached the level of an imperial weapon. It’s impossible to fix it unless one is a very high-level blacksmith.

“It’s even possible that even an extremely high-level refiner might not be able to repair it.

“After I return to the state of Han, I’m going to find a few of the best refiners in the region and work together to repair it.

“Although the Han state’s refining level is quite good, and there’s a famous three-star refining company, in the end, in terms of refining level, in the entire east, the nine provinces is the best.”

“That’s true. But those top refiners in the nine provinces are not so easy to find.

“They are either in high positions or hiding among the people.”

“I have studied refining before, and have interacted with some refiners. I have a friend who seems to know a particularly powerful refining master.

“If you don’t mind, you can give me this pile of fragments. I’ll take it and see if he can refine it for you again.”

Liu Chengxun’s eyes lit up.

“Is what you said true? Then... Can you bring me there personally? I’ll repay you with a large sum of money and see if I can increase the chances of success.”

Ye Xiao did not know whether to laugh or cry. What would he do if he were to let him go over? There was no armament master. It was himself.

“I’m afraid that won’t do. The other party’s personality is very withdrawn. Moreover, he lives in seclusion in the mountains and doesn’t like to interact with others on a daily basis.

“If I casually bring a stranger over, it’s very likely that he’ll be angry because of that, which might result in him refusing to help.”

Liu Chengxun felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him, but he also nodded his head in understanding.

“You’re right. Recluse refining masters like them all have some special habits and tempers.”

He handed the fragment to Ye Xiao.

“Then I’ll leave it to you.”

Ye Xiao nodded.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely do my best to help you settle this matter.”

After the two of them chatted briefly, Ye Xiao returned to his own area and continued to read.

He already had a lot of martial arts combat techniques. Currently, he only had one leg technique that he had yet to learn.

He had already synthesized the imperial techniques and could not continue to do so.

He had only learned the leg technique because it was the strongest attack among all the attacks in the human body.

There was no more powerful attack method on the human body than the thigh.

However, he did not look at the leg technique now. Instead, he wanted to look at the soul refining technique first.

After all, his cultivation speed was very fast. Within half a year, he had a very high chance of advancing to the King realm!

If at that time, his cultivation was insufficient, resulting in spiritual energy deviation, then he would be in big trouble.

Ye Xiao had read from a book that soul cultivation techniques were very rare. Moreover, even if there were, they were either very trashy soul cultivation techniques, or very powerful. Even so, the powerful ones were very difficult to find.

That was because only spiritual martial artists who cultivated spiritual cultivation techniques would cultivate soul cultivation techniques, and that portion of people was very few in number.

That indirectly resulted in not many soul-refining techniques.

As for top-grade soul-refining techniques, it was because after a martial artists advanced to Xiantian ninth grade, they had to cultivate their souls, which was why they were produced.

However, their numbers were even fewer, and they were only in the hands of very few martial arts experts. It was very difficult to reach a limit.

In a small place like Jianghai city, there were only a few soul-refining techniques currently recorded.

Ye Xiao had only found about 15 soul cultivation techniques after reading them for an entire day. Furthermore, he had only extracted one soul cultivation technique from them.

‘I wonder if the martial arts library in the Zhong city has any soul cultivation techniques? If so, it would be a good opportunity for me.

‘However, there’s no need to worry too much.

‘The martial arts library in Jianghai city should have been expanded after I returned.

‘When the time comes, I’m afraid there will be quite a number of top-grade cultivation techniques recorded in it. There will definitely be some soul refining techniques.’

Ding!

The clock chimed after work. Ye Xiao got up and left, preparing to go back and pack his clothes. He also arranged for Huan Liuli to stay in Jianghai city and collect the income from the farm on time every day.

That made Ye Xiao feel as if he had returned to his previous life. He raised a farm and picked vegetables every day.

Fortunately, no one would steal his vegetables. That was very convenient.

‘After work, I think there’s a new spicy squid kebab shop in the north of the city. Let’s go and have a taste.’

...

Late autumn nights always came very quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the sun had set.

At that time, a tall and sturdy figure with a big beard also came to Jianghai city.

He wore a large windbreaker, and his beard was very thick and eye-catching. There was an inexplicable aura around him that made people afraid to approach him.

It was Norfis!

Looking at the humans on the street, he licked his lips, and two dark green lights shone in his eyes.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten a human. I miss it so much.”

Then, he spoke again,

“There’s no rush. Let’s wait for a while. As long as I find the clone and fuse with it, I’ll kill everyone in this city!

“If I attack now, I might alarm some human martial arts experts and ruin my plan to take back my main body. That would be a huge loss.”

Thinking of that, he strode into the northern part of Jianghai city.

There were many humans on the streets, which made Norfis drool. At the same time, he could not help but sigh inwardly.

There was a reason why humans were able to develop.
