I Can See Through Everything

Chapter 101



"Who would've thought that the patterns on a small piece of silver could contain so much information," Lu Qing murmured to himself, eyes gleaming with insight.

Just now, he had finally comprehended the patterns on the piece of broken silver in his hand, grasping their connection to the metal-element runes in the Divine Rune Sect's general manual.

Of course, this didn't mean he had mastered the art of runes—this was just a glimpse, a first step in understanding. The initial breakthrough is always the hardest, and any progress from zero to one is the most challenging.

Now that he had taken this crucial first step, understanding the patterns of other things would become much easier. Lu Qing believed that the day he truly mastered the path of runes wasn't far off.

Stowing the silver piece in his chest, Lu Qing felt elated. Today was indeed a good day—not only had his martial arts cultivation reached the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm, but he also made a breakthrough in his comprehension of runes.

He packed up his belongings and left the Bamboo Forest, heading home. Upon returning to the village, he saw someone waiting at his courtyard gate, looking out anxiously.

"Brother Xiao Tian?" Lu Qing recognized the person and called out in surprise.

"Lu Xiaolangjun, you're finally back!" Xiao Tian's face lit up with joy upon seeing Lu Qing.

"Why are you standing outside? Come in and have a seat," Lu Qing invited.

"I knocked on the door, but no one was home," Xiao Tian said, a bit embarrassed.

Lu Qing then remembered that Xiao Yan and Xiao Li had gone to play at their master's place today. "Sorry for the lack of hospitality. Please, come in," he said, opening the bamboo gate.

"No need, Lu Xiaolangjun. I'm here on urgent business," Xiao Tian declined.

"Oh? What's the matter?" Lu Qing noticed Xiao Tian's earlier anxious expression.

"I don't know the specifics. Here is a letter from Master Ma. You'll understand once you read it," Xiao Tian said, taking out a letter sealed with wax.

Lu Qing took the letter, opened it, and read it quickly. His expression grew more serious with each line he read.

The letter was indeed from Mago. Lu Qing recognized his handwriting. It mainly conveyed one thing: the Wei family was in trouble.

It all started a few days ago when a group of mysterious people arrived at the Wei mansion in the county and began to publicly berate them. This scene immediately alarmed all the factions in the city. The Wei family had always held a prominent position in the county, even the County Magistrate had to show them respect.

Now, someone dared to provoke the Wei family openly, causing shock among the city's factions. Did these people have a death wish?

As expected, the Wei family's Silver Moon Guards were dispatched. A whole squad of them charged at the mysterious group. Unexpectedly, the seemingly invincible Silver Moon Guards couldn't defeat the intruders. They were pushed back, and it was only when the Wei family's chief steward personally intervened that the situation was stabilized.

Despite being held back, the mysterious group remained defiant, declaring that since the Wei family's Precelestial ancestor had died, it was wise for them to surrender their treasure instead of clinging to it and risking annihilation.

After leaving these harsh words, the mysterious group temporarily retreated, but their words shook the entire city.

The city's factions learned that the Wei family had a Precelestial ancestor, and now it seemed this ancestor had passed away. The mysterious group appeared to be after a treasure in the Wei mansion, showing no fear of the Wei family.

Everyone was stunned. This was only the beginning. Over the next few days, new faces appeared in the city, and at night, sounds of fighting could be heard from the Wei mansion. The next day, bodies were seen being carried out, but this did not deter those coveting the treasure.

In his letter, Mago warned Lu Qing about the turmoil in the county. With many warriors gathered, the situation was volatile. The Wei family might not have the energy to deal with the Black Wolf Gang, who had become more arrogant recently, possibly due to backing from a strong warrior. Mago advised Lu Qing to stay low and avoid unnecessary trouble.

Lu Qing folded the letter, his expression heavy. Mago's message was indeed important. The Wei family's troubles were unexpected, given their Precelestial ancestor, which explained their rapid rise. But now, with their foundation shaken, enemies had swarmed in. Could the Wei family withstand this storm?

Lu Qing hoped their deep foundations were enough to weather the crisis. As for the Black Wolf Gang, Lu Qing's eyes grew cold at the thought. He had unresolved scores with them, and if they caused trouble again, he wouldn't hesitate to teach them a harsh lesson.

Seeing the stern look in Lu Qing's eyes, Xiao Tian shivered, recalling the terrifying scene of Lu Qing standing amidst fallen heads that night.

"Lu Xiaolangjun, with the city's current chaos, my master has returned to help maintain order, leaving the Grand Bazaar to me. If you need anything, just let me know, and I'll do my best to get it for you," Xiao Tian offered.

"Thank you," Lu Qing nodded, then had a thought. "Brother Xiao Tian, have you been stuck before the Qi and Blood Realm for a long time?"

Xiao Tian was taken aback, then replied respectfully, "Yes, my aptitude is poor. Forgive me for making a fool of myself."

Seeing Xiao Tian's dejection, Lu Qing smiled and handed him a pill. "You've been running errands for me. This pill is a small gift. Take it, and you should be able to break through to the Qi and Blood Realm."

Xiao Tian was both surprised and delighted, asking, "Lu Xiaolangjun, what is this pill?"

"It's a Blood Replenishing and Qi-boosting Pill."

Xiao Tian was stunned, remembering Mago mentioning this valuable pill, saying he had only ever received three such pills during his Qi and Blood Realm training. For Xiao Tian, this was a precious opportunity. Despite his hesitation, he couldn't refuse Lu Qing's generosity and accepted the pill gratefully.

Lu Qing saw Xiao Tian's careful handling of the pill and understood why he hadn't broken through. Xiao Tian was too cautious and lacked the courage needed for martial progress. "Brother Xiao Tian, take the pill now. I'll watch over you," Lu Qing suggested.

Though hesitant, Xiao Tian complied, swallowing the pill. He immediately felt a surge of energy, struggling to control it. Lu Qing shouted, "Start practicing, refine the energy!"

Xiao Tian quickly began practicing a boxing technique taught by Mago. Lu Qing watched, satisfied. Despite its simplicity compared to Health Nourishing Boxing, Xiao Tian's familiarity with it should soon lead him to breakthrough.

However, as time passed, Xiao Tian still hadn't made the crucial step. Seeing his struggle, Lu Qing drew his sword, enveloping Xiao Tian in a killing intent, and shouted, "Xiao Tian, watch the blade!"

Startled, Xiao Tian looked over, eyes wide with fear.
