Chapter 921: Disciple Returns Home
Autumn went and spring came, and several years passed.

This year, Zhou Pan just turned ten years old. He has made great progress in his apprenticeship under the pharmacist Ku Tang and has been promoted to a first-class pharmacist.

This child is determined and willing to endure hardships. Most importantly, he inherited Zhou You's excellent genes. He is good at both practicing boxing and refining medicine, and has achieved some success in both.

According to the planned path, one would lay the foundation before the age of ten, have abundant Qi and blood, and then at the age of ten, break through to become a martial artist in one go.

A ten-year-old martial artist who is also a first-class pharmacist is worthy of mention even in the capital city where geniuses and evildoers abound.

……

"Father, please look!"

In the martial arts training ground, Zhou Pan's face was tense as he performed a set of family boxing techniques, which was the Liuli Shouguang Fist.

There is no rush to learn other boxing styles, but this defensive boxing style is the only boxing style that Zhou family members have to practice hard since they started learning.

Zhou Peizhou Pan is no exception. He has mastered this style of boxing since he was a child. Now his fists and feet are integrated with defense, and his blood flows smoothly, giving off the sound of a torrent and waterfall.

The sound of the wind caused by the fists and feet changed subtly. The guards present looked at each other, knowing that their young master's breakthrough was imminent.

as predicted……

Zhou Pan suddenly stomped his foot on the ground with his strength increasing ten times than before. His blood and energy suddenly exploded like taut muscles, and blood mist gushed out of the pores all over his body.

In an instant, breathing becomes more intense, body temperature rises sharply, and qi and blood cleanse the bones and tendons throughout the body.

The overall improvement brought about by the sudden breakthrough resulted in unexpected physical consumption.

Zhou Pan staggered a few steps, his legs and feet went weak. He bit a spare pill in his mouth and crushed it. The medicinal power turned into a warm current that nourished his limbs and bones and merged into the qi and blood strength that had just broken through.

After a while, Zhou Pan's realm stabilized, and he clasped his fists respectfully, "I have not brought shame to my father, and now I have broken through to the martial arts master level."

"Good boy, you are ten years old today. Your father should have given you a present, but you gave me a surprise first."

Zhou You gently stroked Zhou Pan's head, feeling emotional. Among his three sons, only Zhou Pan was always by his side.

In order to gain his father's attention and recognition, the child practiced boxing and learned medicine very hard, which often made Yu Fuer feel distressed.

"You gave me a great gift, and father cannot treat you unfairly."

"Here is a Baile Tianluo, a secret treasure that can trap enemies and protect yourself. I'm giving it to you!"

Hearing the words Baile Tianluo, Gong Jinhuan and other "Old Men of the North" were slightly surprised. Everyone knew that when he was traveling in the North, this item was one of his famous secret treasures that made him travel all over the place.

The Qi family's treasure, which was once the family treasure, shines brightly and becomes famous after falling into Zhou You's hands!

Although Zhou You's realm has been improved and he has more magical weapons and secret treasures in his hands, the significance of this item is very important.

Zhou Pan happily took the Baile Tianluo. This item was more novel than the sword and he couldn't wait to play with it on the spot.

"Okay, look how happy you are, go down and figure it out yourself!"

Zhou You watched his son leave, his mind lost in reverie.

The past few years have been peaceful and the Western Sect of the Zhou family has lived in peace with various forces, enjoying a rare period of stable development.

There are two reasons:

First, Zhou Nanwang broke through the Earth Sect and was received by the Lord of the Land. Later, rumors spread that he would be entrusted with an important task.

With the respect of Lord Feng and the extra layer of golden light protecting them, the Eight Gentlemen could no longer cause trouble.

As for other forces, such as the hostile families and the disaffected Dongzong clan members, they have no excuse to provoke them.

Second, although Zhou You had resigned from office, he was still connected to the Jitian Palace.

For some reason, Concubine Mei thought highly of him and often summoned him to the palace for questioning. Zhou You was surprised. Every time they met, they just talked about family matters. They didn't assign tasks or bribe him. It was just a routine matter. After talking for a while, they let him go.

The outside world didn't understand the reason and just thought that Zhou You was very clever and was able to curry favor with Concubine Mei in order to get this umbrella of protection for his family.

Zhou Nanwang was appreciated by the feudal lord, and Zhou You was valued by Concubine Mei, which made many people envious and jealous.

Zhou You finds this opportunity, which many people would not be able to ask for, very troublesome. There must be a reason for everything and pie in the sky is impossible.

Concubine Mei's behavior was very unusual, which made him doubt. Perhaps there was a possibility that Concubine Mei was doubting the relationship between the Heart Demon Ring and Zhou You.

Over the past few years, Zhou You reviewed his past experiences and found many fatal omissions consisting of flaws of varying sizes.

Anyone who is interested only needs to sort out clues from all sides and they will find that the activity trajectory of the Heart Demon Ring is highly consistent with Zhou You.

The place where the inner demon appeared publicly was the Fukong City. At that time, Zhou You proposed to Hai Shuer on behalf of the Eight Gentlemen. This can be explained as a coincidence, but what happened next...

After Zhou You returned to Dijing, the Heart Demon Ring appeared frequently. Although its activity range was very wide, a careful analysis revealed that it had always been centered in Dijing and had never gone far.

The reason why Zhou You was not exposed to these flaws was because there was a projection clone on the panel, allowing the two to appear in different occasions.

Zhou You seriously suspected that Concubine Mei had guessed something, so she kept in touch with him and tried to test him in every way.

You know, Concubine Mei has a group of magic ring soldier slaves in her hands, and she knows much more inside information than ordinary people.

"I have a headache!"

Zhou You could only hide his depression in his heart and could not reveal it to the people around him.

Today is his son’s tenth birthday, so he can’t be too negative. He patted his cheeks and stood up.

Someone came to report that Qi Qingdi wanted to see him.

This disciple has had a rough time recently. Although he has been promoted to a high-level martial artist for a long time and has been working hard to overcome the difficulties in martial arts, his talent is limited and he cannot compare with Mao Lang and the other two.

The successive breakthroughs of Mao Lang, Jian Xiaocao and Cao Moang stimulated him, but the gap in talent could not be made up by hard work.

"Master, I bid you farewell today. I want to return to Beidi City and take charge of Daqian Martial Arts School again!"

Qi Qingdi's decision surprised Zhou You a little, "Well, have you thought about it carefully?"

"My disciple is not acting on impulse. Over the years, a lot of resources and time have been wasted. It is clear that a strong martial arts realm cannot be forced."

Qi Qingdi said seriously, "Master still has a legacy in Beixuan Mansion. I want to return to my original intention. Maybe there is still a chance."

Ah!
Zhou You recalled his time in Beixuan Mansion and couldn't help but miss that time very much.

I haven't been home to see Hua Youxing and other girls over the years. It's time to meet many old friends in the north.

Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "Okay, you prepare it. If you need manpower and resources, just make a list and report it. Then go to the warehouse to collect them."

"Qing Di, don't leave for too long, it's almost time to go back to Master."

Qi Qingdi knelt respectfully, "Master, please take care of my sister!"

He and his sister Qi Qingyao depended on each other for survival. They finally reunited in Beijing, but now they have to separate again for their own future.

But there was no other way. It was a long journey from Dijing to Beidi, and he couldn’t let Qi Qingyao suffer with him.

"You don't need to remind me about this!"

Zhou You planned to go to the north by himself to prepare for Qi Qingdi's visit in advance and to meet his old friends.

At least before following Zhou Nanwang to leave Beijing for his new post, he could complete some tasks and meet some people.
