Dual Cultivation God Returns-Chapter 830 - The Real Demon
830: The Real Demon….
830: The Real Demon….
“Haa~…
haa~.., this….
is torture…
it should be illegal…
khaa~ haa~”, Chen Hui spoke completely drenched in sweat, with wobbly knees, trying to hold his spear straight as the spearblade slightly trembled, threatening to go downward at any moment.
“Hmm, that’s enough of training”, Wu Long calmly nodded, standing opposite him with the Sky Piercer spear that he got from the Seven Scars Guild Leader.
By now the captain was so exhausted he wasn’t going to make any more progress, and any more would only earn diminishing returns.
“Sit down to cultivate”, Wu Long’s merciless next words caused Chen Hui to collapse on the floor, almost starting to wail from the brutal interchange between training and cultivating the new cultivation technique that Wu Long gave him.
Seeing that, Wu Long chuckled, “What?
Did you think it would be easy?
Not to mention, every second that you’re here training, I spend covering for the fact you’re absent, show some appreciation, will you?”
Chen Hui raised his gaze at Wu Long that spoke volumes of his ‘appreciation’.
At the same time, he could not get rid of the feeling of astonishment, as he could swear the first time he saw Wu Long fight he fought like an expert saber wielder.
Now, however, his spear skills struck both awe and fear into the captain.
And yet, Chen Hui also knew that right at this moment, somewhere in this city, an illusion version of him was walking around, controlled by Wu Long’s mind to make it seem that Chen Hui was spending his regular days when he was absent for several days straight, here, undergoing hellish training.
Though he chose to not even think of that, as that was too far out of the realm of his comprehension.
He sluggishly began rising from the sprawled position he collapsed into.
“You think someone would believe you took out a Corrupt Path lair with a 3rd-level Essence Ignition Realm expert and about a dozen 7th to 9th level Essence Gathering Realm henchmen, even if you lead a squad of soldiers and have help from me, as you are now?
If you slack off and don’t get into shape in time for that to be revealed, no one’s going to buy it”, Wu Long added.
“Well because you took it out”, Chen Hui mumbled under his nose, but seeing Wu Long’s gaze promising an even more harsh training session, shuddered and quickly sat into pose to cultivate.
Wu Long took out a few freshly made Alchemy Pills, the cost of which he planned to take from the princess later, and placed those porcelain small pill bottles in front of Chen Hui.
“I expect you to reach the bottleneck of the 7th level by the end of this cultivation, and advance to 8th.
Remember, by the end of the week you are going to be attempting a breakthrough to Essence Ignition”, Wu Long added.
Chen Hui nervously nodded, and then reflexively caught a jade slip thrown at him.
“This is…?”, he raised his eyebrows at Wu Long.
“Something you’ll have to memorize as well, though you have plenty of time before you’ll need that, I suggest you start committing it to memory now”, Wu Long nodded.
Chen Hui lightly sank his consciousness into the jade slip and then gasped, a light blush appearing on his face, “Thi…!
Yo-…!
This is…!”
“Dual Cultivation is very important if you want to become a husband whose wife is satisfied and happy, and if you want to not only get her hand in an arrangement but eventually win her favor and heart as well”, Wu Long spoke in a calm tone, as if saying the most profound things out of everything he said before.
“But…
isn’t it…
too early?
I…
I mean…
I can’t think that way, it would be…
impolite…”
Wu Long’s gaze turned cold again, “I think I’m being too lenient on you, if you have time to doubt my instructions and spout such nonsense, we’ll go with Essence Ignition Realm in five days instead of a week”
Meanwhile…
“Sister Ling”, Wu Mengqi spoke with a strangely serious expression.
“Mm?”, Ye Ling turned a surprised gaze to her.
“I owe you a big and sincere apology”, Wu Mengqi continued in an even more somber tone, causing Ye Ling’s surprise to turn into shock, but then added as she turned to the latter with a grimace of terror and a half-crying tone, “Honey is the real Demon Instructor…
I didn’t know he could be like that~”
“Pfft…
hahaha”, Ye Ling burst into laughter with both relief it wasn’t anything serious and amusement.

As Wu Long predicted, the Kai Family could not hold back the rumors of lost personnel, and the fears, anxiety and doubts of their Branch Families started to show cracks in their unity.
As a result, their financial problems started surfacing one by one.
They didn’t even have time to seek out Wu Long to settle the score for poaching their talent, as they were busy putting out fires of collapse.
Eventually, the Wuliang Family, one of the other Forging Dao families, decided to take over their businesses, accepting the Kai Family as vassals, a lesser noble house.
And just as the Kai Family started the purge of those they had to dispose of, Princess Wei Zhenhui intervened, preventing slaughter.
No one expected someone of her status to intervene, in something that happened so spontaneously as well.
The people who previously refused Wu Long’s offer out of loyalty for the family that ultimately forsake them and was on the verge of cutting them down along with their families, were given another chance, one they took with gratitude.

On the same day, Wu Long met with Lu Mang.
“I have a favor to ask of you”
“Of course, Master Wu!
For Master Wu, anything you need!”, Lu Mang made the biggest smile he could muster.
“You’ll have to spread the deeds of Princess Wei Zhenhui through the docks, praise her as much as it is possible”
“Ah…
that is…”, Lu Mang’s smile froze as he sensed this was somewhat of a dangerous territory.
“In return, I will help you get rid of the Northwest Docks Gangs, and take over their territory”, Wu Long added, causing Lu Mang to widen his eyes.
“O-of course!
Hahahaha!

There’s no need, no need for that at all!
Hahahaha!
We wouldn’t dare to bargain with Master Wu!
We…we’ll do it for free!”
“You don’t need it?”, Wu Long raised his eyebrow with amusement.
“Eh?
Uhm…
that is…
Hahahaha!
O-of course we wouldn’t dare ask this of you!
B-but if Master Wu-…”
“I was joking”
“…A-…Ahahahaha!
Hahahaha!
HA-HA-HA!
M-Master Wu is indeed also is a master at joking!
Hahaha, so funny!
Isn’t it guys?
Hahaha!”, Lu Mang turned to his gang who started awkwardly laughing with him.
“Anyway, once you expand and overtake that territory, I expect the living conditions of those living there to start significantly improving right away”
“O-of course, Master Wu.
We’re not like those scumbags!
W-we will make those folks prosper under our protection!”, Lu Mang swore, a sincere look appearing in his eyes as he beat his chest a couple times with his palm.
“And everyone better hear that it was the Princess that helped those people”, Wu Long added, causing an understanding look appear in Lu Mang’s eyes.
