The item I identified is very strange.

Chapter 25 I'll Teach You

The breakfasts sold in the old residential areas are very simple.

It's mostly fried dough sticks and soy milk, with the occasional stall selling cold noodles or sesame cakes, and a few places selling xiaolongbao (soup dumplings).

The breakfast street is bustling with a large flow of people.

You can see many people rushing to pack their breakfast and leave.

In this world of martial artists, it's rare to encounter any martial artists in the old residential area, and even if you do, they won't actively unleash their blood energy.

In the age of martial artists, strength is the most important thing, but those who can practice martial arts are always only a minority, and most are just ordinary people.

The martial arts community is also specific, mostly concentrated in martial arts associations or places like the New Blood Qi Group.

Some very talented martial artists are recruited by the Thunder Gate within the Martial Security Bureau.

Xia Fan originally wanted to eat xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), but was unexpectedly attracted by the aroma of shaobing (baked flatbread).

"Boss, two meat-filled sesame seed cakes, please."

Xia Fan walked to the stall, sat down, and began to speak.

"Okay, please have a seat and wait a moment."

The boss replied and then got busy.

Xia Fan finally relaxed. He had been feeling quite resentful before, so he didn't feel relaxed at all.

But now, there is a solution.

Of course, this relaxation is only temporary; he still needs to find more ways to improve.

He picked up the black plastic bag he was carrying, took out a bottle of Viagra, unscrewed the cap, shook out two pills, and popped them into his mouth.

The blood and qi instantly dissolved in his body, allowing Xia Fan to feel his strength gradually increasing.

If it weren't for the price of Viagra, it would be truly unaffordable.

"Grandpa, do you usually live around here? This is the first time I've seen you here." The shopkeeper struck up a conversation with Xia Fan while baking the sesame cakes.

uncle……

Xia Fan always felt strange being called that.

He didn't come here mainly because of money. If he wants to live, he has to rely on himself. Why would he spend money to eat out all the time?

Just as Xia Fan sat down, two elderly men walked over from the end of the breakfast street.

An old man washing his hair, carrying an old bag.

"Alright, stop bragging. You said you taught me Tai Chi sword and won the championship, but that was more than ten years ago. Why are you still bragging all the time?"

He was practicing swordplay in the park when this guy next to him insisted that he was some kind of Tai Chi sword champion and that his movements weren't up to standard.

This made him very unhappy.

Chen Weiguo was not happy about being told that, and he immediately retorted, "I'm a champion too, so teaching you a few moves is no problem!"

The thinning old man was already impatient: "Fine, fine, I'm too lazy to talk to you. You're either showing off your granddaughter or talking to me about Tai Chi sword."

"You stubborn old fool... never mind, let's not argue anymore, but let me tell you, that sesame seed cake place's tastes absolutely authentic!"

The old man with thinning hair softened his tone slightly: "Well, then I'll trust you and give it a try."

They walked up to the sesame seed cake stall, and Chen Weiguo said with a smile, "Boss, the usual, two servings this time!"

"Okay, no problem, you guys go first."

Just as Chen Weiguo was about to pay the bill, the thinning old man next to him tugged at his sleeve: "Old Weiguo, look over there..."

"What's wrong?"

Chen Weiguo looked towards the seats, but was immediately stunned.

A spirited old man sat at a table and chairs casually placed next to the barbecue stall.

Isn't this that disrespectful old man?

Chen Weiguo had originally planned to tell his granddaughter to be careful when he went back to see her, but before he could say anything, they ran into trouble.

"He really lives nearby? I thought it was just a chance encounter." Li Weiguo frowned.

They all remembered that when Xia Fan was practicing his swordplay, the screen showed a girl's feet wearing white socks—it was simply perverted.

He's so old, yet he's still thinking about young girls; he's lost all basic principles.

That's disgusting.

Xia Fan paid no attention to the two old men. He was carefully planning his future improvement. Currently, he was using the Tai Xu Visualization Diagram. As long as he continued to visualize it, he could improve his strength.

Combined with the Blood Qi Pill, the speed boost is quite fast.

As long as you continue to cultivate the Void Sword Control Technique, there won't be any problems. However, if you want to continue to improve, you will need Source Crystals.

In essence, Source Crystals are naturally occurring products. Martial artists typically need to absorb Source Crystals to improve their abilities, and combining them with visualization diagrams is the best way to cultivate.

However, source crystals are not so easy to obtain...

This kind of thing is very expensive if someone sells it, but if you want to find it yourself, you have to go to new areas to explore.

The news rarely reports on what's happening outside; they've only mentioned that there might be some secret realms or mutated creatures.

I'll ask Chen Xiaoxue later if she knows anything about Yuan Jing's situation.

"Hey buddy, eating?"

Just as Xia Fan was thinking, the voice came. He looked up and found that the two people in front of him looked somewhat familiar.

He quickly realized that this was the person who had invited him in the park.

What a coincidence.

"Um."

Xia Fan smiled and nodded, showing little desire to speak.

What's there to talk about with two old men?

However, Chen Weiguo was different. He cared a lot, because he knew exactly how beautiful his granddaughter was.

We absolutely cannot let this old man see us, not even a single glance from him is acceptable!

Thinking this, he smiled and asked, "Old brother, do you live nearby?"

"I guess so," Xia Fan nodded with a smile.

The old man with thinning hair also sat down.

Xia Fan felt very uncomfortable. Why were these two so familiar with each other?

Just as he was wondering, he suddenly noticed a very small ring hanging on Chen Weiguo's bag.

[Identification: A spatial ring developed by the New Blood Group, capable of storing certain items.]

nice one!

Xia Fan's mind instantly became active. His previous reluctance to speak vanished, and now he only wanted to talk non-stop.

He immediately observed the old man in front of him. He didn't seem to be a martial artist. If he were, his steps would be much more steady.

They wouldn't approach others so casually, because they could easily be ambushed.

Thinking this, he smiled and said, "I think your peach wood sword is quite nice. Do you practice Tai Chi sword?"

Chen Weiguo had originally intended to inquire about the other party's address, but when the topic turned to the peach wood sword, he immediately puffed out his chest and said, "Old brother, you might not believe it, but I'm the Tai Chi sword champion from Jiangbei City!"

I see……

"Is that so?" Xia Fan smiled, picked up the peach wood sword from the other person's bag, and began to swing it.

The fluid swordplay was like a perfect work of art, as light as a butterfly and as magnificent as waves.

The two old men stared in disbelief, seemingly unable to believe that someone of their age could still perform such fluid movements.

Xia Fan smiled. He had used a little technique after learning the Void Sword Control Technique. Even someone without blood energy could wield it, but it would require a long time of practice.

He knows the Void Sword Control Technique, so it's easy for him to do.

Seeing the two old men staring in disbelief, he smiled mysteriously and said, "Want to learn? I'll teach you."

Upon hearing this, the two old men snapped out of their daze, exchanged a glance, and both saw the shock in each other's eyes.

They accomplished it without any prior knowledge of it.

Xia Fan was quite adept at fooling old men, so he continued, "By the way, are you a Tai Chi sword champion?"

Chen Weiguo's expression changed upon hearing this.

champion?

Compared to this, farts are the champion.

"You, you just said you would teach me?" Chen Weiguo's breathing became rapid.

He's old and not very interested in anything else, except studying swordsmanship and showing off a few moves in front of acquaintances.

"Yes, I can teach you. By the way, that ring you're wearing is quite nice, where did you buy it?"

Xia Fan took the opportunity to point to the ring on the bag.

Chen Weiguo looked down, smiled, and said, "Hey, this was given to me by my granddaughter when she was little. She said that if she got married, she would just give it to her husband and have him wear it for her. It was just a joke, but I thought it would be nice to keep it as a pendant as a keepsake."
