This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!

Chapter 80: Chapter 80 Prelude

After bidding farewell to Hao Yi, Li Fei ran back home from the Martial Arts Hall.

Since Li Lei became the Captain, he got much busier than before, and he had to work overtime again tonight.

Zhang Yuqing was at home packing Li Tianyu’s luggage.

The start date for Wu’an University was September 1, and the direct railway from Xing City to the capital of Datong Prefecture had not yet been completed. Hence, it would take Li Tianyu at least two days to get there. She also needed to arrive at school early to register, so she decided to leave early the next morning.

“Mom, there’s a cafeteria in the university, why are you packing so much food for me?”

Li Fei had just returned home when he heard Li Tianyu yelling.

...

“You might not get used to the cafeteria food. These pickles, cured meat, and salted duck eggs are all your favorites. Take more, and if you run out, I’ll send you more,” Zhang Yuqing said softly.

“I’m home,” Li Fei shouted.

Hearing the voice, Li Tianyu walked out of the bedroom and said carelessly to Li Fei, “Sis, I’m leaving tomorrow. Don’t miss me too much.”

Li Fei smiled.

Although he was a year younger than Li Tianyu, his mindset from two lifetimes made him look at Li Tianyu as if she were a naive young girl.

He could tell at a glance that although Li Tianyu appeared nonchalant, she was actually quite reluctant.

She didn’t want to leave Li Lei, Zhang Yuqing, or Li Fei.

“You go to university first, I’ll come to join you very soon,” Li Fei said with a smile.

Li Tianyu looked at him, “You promise?”

“Yes, promised. I hope by the time I get there, I will have heard all about your great reputation at school.”

“Haha, just wait and see.”

Li Fei’s words lightened Li Tianyu’s mood, and she started to look forward to her upcoming university life.

“Sis, before you go, I have something to give you,” Li Fei suddenly said.

Then he got up, walked into his bedroom, and quickly came out with a bottle of elixir.

He handed the elixir to Li Tianyu:

“This is the Iron Essence Pill given to me by Chief Gu. It’s suitable for martial artists at the Body Breaking Stage. With your talent, you should quickly pass through the Embryo Cultivation Stage and reach the Body Breaking Stage after entering Wuda, and then you can use this elixir.”

Li Fei kept the Iron Essence Pill unused because it was unnecessary for him; he had even thought about selling them for money later. But now that his savings exceeded sixty thousand, he didn’t lack money and decided to give the Iron Essence Pill to Li Tianyu.

“I don’t want it!” Li Tianyu immediately refused, “This is the elixir awarded to you by Chief Gu, you should use it!”

“Sis, Chief Gu gave me quite a lot. I can’t use this much by myself; keeping them would be a waste,” Li Fei said with a smile.

Li Tianyu eyed him skeptically, “Really?”

“Really, he is the Chief, very generous. He gave too many pills; I can’t possibly use them all.”

Li Fei stuffed the elixir into Li Tianyu’s hands.

Iron Essence Pills might also be available at Wuda, but there might be a limited quantity, not everyone could buy them, and surely they would be costly.

Chief Gu Zhenhui had given Li Fei a total of 60 Iron Essence Pills, enough for Li Tianyu to use for a while during the Body Breaking Stage.

Li Fei still had thirty Bitter Elemental Pills left, but since those elixirs wouldn’t be effective for those above Rank A, he did not give them to Li Tianyu.

“Alright, then I won’t be polite with you. Once I’m at the university, I’ve got your back,” Li Tianyu patted Li Fei.

“Great, I’ll count on you then,” Li Fei replied with a genuine smile.

After dinner, he did another Strength Training session and then prepared himself and left the house.

About forty minutes later, the Green-faced Ghost walked into Qingyuan Fist Village.

Led by the receptionist, he again walked into his personal rest room.

Soon after, Liu San came in carrying a briefcase.

“Brother, you finally came. Lots of people are looking forward to seeing you fight the next match, and the Boxing Village is also willing to arrange a big match for you!” Liu San said excitedly.

“Let’s not talk about that now. Do you have what I asked for?”

Li Fei interrupted the other person.

Liu San placed the suitcase on the table, then opened it, revealing neatly arranged bottles of elixir inside:

“This is the elixir you wanted, 300 Power Transformation Pills and 500 Grass Returning Pills.”

Previously, Li Fei had already asked Liu San to buy him 200 Power Transformation Pills, and he had used most of them during this period.

Considering the issue of resistance, he had Liu San buy him another type of elixir—Grass Returning Pills.

The effects of this elixir were similar to those of the Power Transformation Pill, only slightly more expensive.

In total, he had bought 500 Power Transformation Pills and 500 Grass Returning Pills, spending a total of 1416 yuan. @@novelbin@@

The price per elixir was more expensive than buying from the Martial Arts Hall; there was no choice in this matter since there were very few purchasing channels for the elixirs required for Martial Arts Cultivation. Buying from the black market inevitably involved many middlemen making a profit margin.

“Okay, thanks for your hard work.”

Li Fei checked the elixirs to make sure there were no problems, then closed the suitcase, and handed Liu San several banknotes, totaling 100 yuan.

“Is this too much?”

Liu San was somewhat surprised after receiving the money.

Even as a hardship fee, it seemed overly generous.

“Keep it. You’ve earned it.”

“All right, how about the boxing match? I’ve been telling you, if you go on stage to fight now, the bonuses will definitely be high!”

Liu San looked at Li Fei with expectation.

Li Fei picked up the suitcase and stood up:

“No fighting.”

After saying that, he walked out of the resting room.

“Eh…”

Liu San watched Li Fei’s departing figure, feeling as if something was about to happen.

…

“Did he go to Qingyuan Fist Village today?”

Zhang Mingze looked at his subordinate reporting back.

“Yes, the Green-faced Ghost publicly appeared at Qingyuan Fist Village today and met with Liu San before leaving.”

The subordinate said.

“What has Liu San been busy with lately?”

“He has been buying elixirs on the black market required for martial artists in the Body Breaking Stage, totaling 500 Power Transformation Pills and 500 Grass Returning Pills.”

“The elixirs must be for the Green-faced Ghost, yet he is still only at the Body Breaking Stage?”

Zhang Mingze furrowed his brows.

His estimation of the Green-faced Ghost’s strength had always assumed he was at the Qi Change Stage level.

“Even if he is still at the Body Breaking Stage, he must be at its peak. He should be trying to buy Breakthrough elixirs. Why buy so many low-quality elixirs?”

Zhang Mingze was puzzled.

As he was thinking, the phone suddenly rang.

“It’s about time he contacted me.”

Zhang Mingze got up and walked to the side, picking up the receiver:

“Who is it?”

“It’s me.”

A deep voice from the Green-faced Ghost came through the phone.

“Have you finally decided to collect your payment?”

“Yes, meet me at Qingyuan Fist Village at 9 o’clock tomorrow night.”

“Alright.”

Zhang Mingze squinted his eyes, agreeing to the meeting.

Li Fei had been absent for so long, and Zhang had once suspected whether Li Fei had been caught by the court and whether this was a trap to get him to show himself.

Therefore, if Li Fei chose a location outside Qingyuan Fist Village for the meeting, he would definitely not go.

But since Li Fei still chose Qingyuan Fist Village as the location, it alleviated some of his concerns.

The two agreed to meet tomorrow night.
