We're practicing all martial arts, so why did you switch to easy mode?

Chapter 69 Li Mo Breakthrough, Merging with Tortoise Shell Technique
Have you ever felt like you were walking faster and faster, and getting more and more excited as you walked?
Su Chen had just experienced it. The simple mode of activating the Wind Chasing Step was walking. As he walked, Su Chen felt as if he was about to take off.

The speed suddenly increased, and the pace became easier and easier.

The feeling was as if my feet had been freed from a ten-kilogram load and had been fitted with an accelerator.

Not long after, Su Chen returned home. After this process of cultivating while walking, his Wind Chasing Step had now reached perfection.

The reason he didn't reach the limit of his cultivation was because he didn't have enough money.

The total amount of money obtained from the notorious thief was only eighty-three taels. Even with his meager savings, it amounted to just over one hundred taels.

After spending sixteen taels of in-game currency on the Wind Chaser Step, there wasn't enough left to spend more money.

Although he couldn't continue spending money on in-game purchases, Su Chen was still quite satisfied with the speed of the Wind Chaser Step.

"The Swift Step excels in speed, while the Thunder Kick excels in leg attacks; the combination of the two perfectly complements each other!"

Now Su Chen felt that he had mastered the basics of martial arts, and could both attack and retreat, truly possessing the ability to protect himself within White Stone City.

After washing up, Su Chen went to bed to rest, but his mind was still on what had happened that night.

"The design of that bell by the Flying Thief is quite good. I'd like to get a few to try if I have the chance. And that Thunder Bomb, it's a pity the recipe wasn't left, otherwise I could try to make a few too. But I think I saw this kind in my past life, how did it work..."

Silent all night.

Time flies like a gentle stream, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye. This day is Li Mo's wedding day.

Su Chen walked out of the courtyard, carrying a faint scholarly air, and arrived at the martial arts hall to attend Li Mo's wedding with Hong Ming and the others.

Li Mo had been waiting for a long time. After arranging everyone's arrival, he began to get busy.

Before long, Liu Fang and Fang Rou arrived. After greeting Hong Ming, they gathered in a corner.

"Junior Brother Su." Liu Fang came up to Su Chen after seeing him and called out softly.

“Senior Sister Liu,” Su Chen replied.

Liu Fang smiled and nodded: "Your batch of medicine may take a while to arrive."

"Thank you very much, Senior Sister," Su Chen said gratefully.

Liu Fang sought out Su Chen mainly to let him know so he wouldn't get impatient. Seeing that Su Chen didn't seem to care, she pulled Fang Rou away.

The banquet lasted until late at night, and even Su Chen, who rarely drinks, drank a little.

After everyone finished their festivities in the bridal chamber, Su Chen went back with Hong Ming and the others.

In the following days, life returned to normal, and apart from occasionally going to the martial arts gym, Su Chen rarely went out.

On the third day, Su Chen received a guest, Li Mo.

“Senior Brother Li Mo.” Su Chen looked at Li Mo and smiled.

"What, aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?" Li Mo chuckled. Compared to the Li Mo of the past, the current Li Mo seemed to have matured a lot overnight, exuding a steady and composed aura.

"Please come in, senior brother!" Su Chen invited, pouring Li Mo a cup of tea.

Li Mo looked around the courtyard, shook his head, and said, "It's so desolate, really too desolate. Junior brother, you should find a woman to manage the household."

Faced with these words, Su Chen could only remain silent.

Li Mo chuckled and took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket: "I'm not teasing you anymore. I'm here to talk to you about something. You can keep this money."

"Senior brother, what does this mean?" Su Chen frowned slightly upon seeing this. "Don't be angry. This is a gift from my father-in-law. It's a hundred taels in total. It's not much, but it's his token of affection. Just accept it," Li Mo explained.

"I can't accept this," Su Chen shook his head and refused.

“Why can’t I accept this? Junior Brother Su, you not only helped my father-in-law get the ginseng back, but you also indirectly saved me and did me a great favor. I don’t think this is enough.” Li Mo said with a fierce expression.

“This…” Su Chen opened his mouth.

But Li Mo simply pushed the silver note to him with a solemn expression. Helpless, Su Chen had no choice but to accept the hundred taels.

Seeing this, Li Mo smiled, then took out twenty taels from his pocket and chuckled, "Since you've already accepted my father-in-law's, then accept mine too!"

Su Chen: "..."

"If it weren't for you, I probably would never have had a chance to break through in my life!" Li Mo revealed his arm, showing the deep red iron wire, with a big smile.

Upon hearing this, Su Chen was slightly taken aback, and then congratulated him, "Congratulations, Senior Brother!"

"Thanks to you!" Li Mo scratched his head and smiled, explaining the reason for his breakthrough.

After being struck by the Flying Thief, Li Mo was severely injured. It took him a period of recuperation to recover, and after that, he naturally broke through to the next level.

If Su Chen hadn't intervened, he probably would have continued to rush forward and fight the Flying Thief. In that case, it wouldn't have been a breakthrough, but a matter of life and death.

Despite this, Su Chen still refused Li Mo.

Seeing that Su Chen insisted, Li Mo had no choice but to take the money. After chatting with Su Chen for a while, Li Mo left.

Before leaving, he solemnly told Su Chen to come to his house when he had time, and to ask his sister-in-law Zhang Wan'er to find him a few decent women to look at.

Su Chen was immediately embarrassed. After giving a few perfunctory replies, he saw Li Mo off.

Subsequently, Su Chen originally planned to take advantage of the one hundred taels of silver given by Zhang Hong to improve his Chasing Wind Step to its limit, but unexpectedly, good things came in pairs.

After several days of silence, Liu Fang suddenly sent someone to visit Su Chen and asked him to come over.

He said that what he wanted had arrived.

So Su Chen brought Qian Liang to the Liu residence.

"Junior brother, these are the red blood grasses you wanted. Take a look."

Liu Fang placed thirty Red Blood Grass plants in front of Su Chen and said.

Su Chen nodded, glanced at the red blood grass briefly, and found that the quality and appearance of the herbs were quite good. He then took out three silver notes and handed them to Liu Fang: "Thank you very much, Senior Sister, this time."

Liu Fang took out two silver notes and shook her head, saying, "I'll keep these two silver notes; you can take the rest back."

Su Chen chuckled awkwardly and put the silver note back into his pocket. Only then did Liu Fang's face break into a smile.

"Although I don't know what you need these medicinal herbs for, junior brother, please remember not to take them without authorization. Some folk remedies may not be accurate."

She thought Su Chen had believed in some folk remedy, so she reminded him.

Su Chen nodded: "Mm."

A moment later, after bidding farewell to Liu Fang, Su Chen couldn't wait to return home and begin preparing the nameless medicine.

"Last time, my physical limit was three doses of nameless medicine. After practicing the Wind Chasing Step, I don't know if I can reach four doses. I'll try preparing four doses first. If it works, I'll take all four doses together so I can break through as soon as possible!"
