Chapter 72 The Top Monster

While they were having dinner, Li Ruoxi's face suddenly turned pale. She put down the chopsticks and said to Wang Ke who was in confusion. "That jerk Xu Jingkai came here today, but I didn't let him come in and just shooed him away."

Wang Ke frowned and had a flash of coldness in his eyes.

He did not expect that Xu Jingkai, who had taken several big hits, could be that utterly reckless in s*x. Wasn't Xu Jingkai afraid of being maimed by him?

Wang Ke made up his mind inwardly that he would give Xu Jingkai a lesson the next time he met him to let him know how powerful he was.

"Don't worry! I promise you that this is the last time that jerk surnamed Xu harassed you!"

Wang Ke said with a smile.

Li Ruoxi's expression changed a little. She quickly said, "Wang Ke, don't do anything stupid. It's not worth disposing of that rubbish at the cost of yourself!"

Wang Ke smiled slightly and said, "I do know it's not worth it. I'll be fine. Don't worry. Now that I want him to disappear from our sights, of course, I can do it unobtrusively. Maybe even he himself could not notice it."

"Give him a stunning blow?"

Li Ruoxi showed a trace of curiosity in her eyes.

Wang Ke smiled, "You don't have to care about that. By the way, have you made up your mind to have a job in the businesses of antiques and magic weapons?"

Li Ruoxi shook her head and said, "No, I haven't. Let's talk about it till I make the decision! Well, you should study hard. If I do want to have a job in the businesses of antiques and magic weapons, I'll need your kind help."

Wang Ke smiled slightly and did not continue that topic.

The next morning, Wang Ke suddenly felt some waves of the spiritual energy between heaven and earth when he reached the place about ten meters away from Self House. He had had a strange look on his face, and now it became stranger with a hint of expectation.

He strode into Self House and quickly walked up to Zhao Menfeng. Then, he said to him respectfully, "Mr. Zhao, I got a breakthrough of my cultivation by chance a few days ago. Thus, I have a special feeling today. I felt such a special feeling faintly yesterday, but it becomes quite clear today."

Hearing that, Zhao Menfeng was immediately attracted. He asked, "What special feeling?"

Wang Ke said, "I find that my perceptivity is several times stronger than before. That's so strange. In the past, through energy-observing, I could only feel the spiritual energy waves within ten square meters around. It's just like that time when you said that I was able to observe the energy. I felt the spiritual energy waves in Self House only after I had entered it. However, today, I felt the spiritual energy waves when I was still more than ten meters away from Self House."

Speaking of which, Wang Ke hesitated for a moment and then continued, "Besides, after entering the antique trading market from the East Gate, I stopped to feel it more than ten times and had felt some spiritual energy waves around me several times. I believe the spiritual energy fluctuates because there are magic weapons in the shops on both sides of the street, right?"

Hearing that, Zhao Menfeng was greatly shocked. He with an old body suddenly stood up and walked out of the counter. Then, he grabbed Wang Ke's arm and dragged him out.

"Mr. Zhao, what do you..."

Wang Ke followed Zhao Menfeng in curiosity and asked him wonderingly.

Zhao Menfeng said without looking back, "I take you to do an experiment!"

His words were full of excitement.

Did an experiment?

Wang Ke asked with doubt, "Don't we need magic weapons for experiments?"

That brought Zhao Menfeng to an abrupt halt. He immediately let go of Wang Ke's hand, clapped his forehead with his hand, and laughed, "What a dotard I am! That's right. We need a magic weapon for the experiment. Then, you wait for me outside. I go to take a magic weapon upstairs."

Then, he rushed to Self House before Wang Ke could give a response.

Seeing that Mr. Zhao was more anxious than him, Wang Ke could not help laughing.

A few minutes later, Zhao Menfeng walked out of Self House hurriedly with a magic weapon in his hands. He said to Wang Ke quickly, "Wang Ke, you walk west twenty steps and then see if you can feel the spiritual energy waves."

Wang Ke nodded and strode about twenty meters west. Then, he stopped and saw Zhao Menfeng putting that magic weapon twenty meters away from him.

"How's it going? Can you feel the spiritual energy waves?" Asked Zhao Menfeng nervously.

Wang Ke gradually concentrated. Two minutes later, he shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "I can't feel them."

Zhao Menfeng showed a trace of disappointment on his face, but there was still a hint of expectation in his eyes. He shouted, "Take three steps forward and try again!"

Hearing that, Wang Ke took three steps forward and got himself concentrated again.

"Mr. Zhao, I feel some spiritual energy waves! That's right! They're spiritual energy waves!"

Wang Ke shouted in delight.

Zhao Menfeng nodded with satisfaction. He laughed and praised Wang Ke, "Unbelievable! So unbelievable! I didn't expect that the improvement of your cultivation could bring you such big progress in energy-observing. You know, it takes an ordinary Qi Master a year or so to improve the perception range from ten square meters to seventeen or eighteen. However, you should make it easily in such a short time. That's so incredible!"

All the wrinkles on his old face had smoothed. He shouted excitedly, "Wang Ke, you know? You have reached the top of the stage of Qi Master. If your perception range could break a circumference of twenty meters, you'll become a Yinyang Master. Of course, you'll become a Yinyang Master knowing nothing about Fengshui."

Having finished his words, Zhao Menfeng raised his head slowly and had a look at the sky. His eyes had some complicated emotions. Then, he lowered his head and looked at Wang Ke's face. He muttered, "A monster. You're indeed a top monster."

He said with deep feeling as well as expectation and appreciation.

Since Wang Ke came to Self House, he had been in amazement and appreciation almost every day. He was amazed at Wang Ke's memory and in appreciation of his conduct. However, what shocked him most was that Wang Ke had a grasp of energy-observing without anyone teaching him. Moreover, it made him more speechless that Wang Ke had made the breakthrough very quickly. He must be a monster, wasn't he? At least, he had never seen such a monster.

He wondered how far Wang Ke could go in this field.

Mr. Zhao was filled with anticipation.

The top monster?

Wang Ke felt deeply ashamed. He quickly walked up to Zhao Menfeng and picked up that magic weapon from the ground. Then, he laughed embarrassedly, "Mr. Zhao, don't praise me anymore. I fear nothing except for others' compliments. That's because every time I hear other people's compliments, I feel quite self-satisfied."

Zhao Menfeng burst into laughter. Seeing the satisfaction in Wang Ke's eyes, he laughed, "Let's go and continue our lesson."

Zhao Menfeng seemed to be in a dream all morning. He had never expected that a person could have such an unimaginable memory. He had thought that he had known the limit of Wang Ke's memory. However, he was cheated by him again. Wang Ke's memory and perception today were amazingly stronger. Besides, Zhao Menfeng was shocked to find that the improvement of his memory also brought Wang Ke better perception. Every time Zhao Menfeng told him a few of the key points, Wang Ke would then be able to draw inferences about other cases from them, getting to grasp the related knowledge.

Wang Ke had learned and absorbed all the knowledge Zhao Menfeng had planned to teach him for three days.

When Wang Ke went to the toilet, Zhao Menfeng secretly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He felt lucky that he was knowledgeable. Otherwise, since Wang Ke had a great memory and perception, it would not be long before he had nothing to teach him.

"From tomorrow on, I'll teach you the knowledge of Fengshui. Make sure you read those books I gave you carefully when you go back home. Though those books are more about antiques and magic weapons, they contain some knowledge of Fengshui."

Zhao Menfeng ordered Wang Ke before he left after the class.

There was an excited look on Wang Ke's face. He nodded without hesitation, "Mr. Zhao, you have my words. I would read those books you gave me carefully and try to find out all the knowledge about Fengshui."

Gao Xinmin had been hesitantly wandering outside Self House for nearly two hours but dared not go in. He wanted to invite Zhao Menfeng and Wang Ke to lunch but was afraid that they would not agree.

It was approaching noon. Finally, he gritted his teeth and strode into Self House.

"Mr. Zhao. Mr. Wang."

Gao Xinmin walked up to Wang Ke and Zhao Menfeng with a little nervousness but more respect.

Zhao Menfeng was a little surprised. He thought this man in front of him looked somewhat familiar, but he could not recognize him for the moment. However, Wang Ke recognized Gao Xinmin immediately when he saw him. This middle-aged man was that worker he saved yesterday who had fallen from high. He had also helped him some time ago that he had healed his injury with his spirit energy in this Self House.

"Who are you?"

Zhao Menfeng asked quizzically.

Hearing that, Wang Ke standing next to Zhao Menfeng immediately whispered, "Master, he came to find you some time ago as he was injured in an accident at work and wanted you to heal him. Don't you remember that? You used the runes of healing at that time."

Being reminded by Wang Ke, Zhao Menfeng suddenly remembered that this man in front of him was one of the injured at that time.

With a smile on his face, Zhao Menfeng looked at Gao Xinmin and said, "What's the matter?"

Gao Xinmin hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Zhao and Mr. Wang, I come here today as I want to invite you two to lunch to thank you for your help. I... I am afraid that I can't be here in the future, so I'm afraid that I won't have a chance to express my gratitude if I do not invite you to lunch."

Zhao Menfeng asked quizzically, "Why do you say that?"

Gao Xinmin said with unforgotten trepidation, "I have bad luck. When I was working on the construction site yesterday, I accidentally fell from more than 20 meters high. If it wasn't for a mysterious person who suddenly arrived and caught me, I'm afraid I would have been dead now. When the contractor knew that, he said that I'm a bane and fired me immediately. He didn't even give me any wages. I lost my job and have nothing to do, so I decided to wait for some days and try to ask the contractor again to give me my wages. When I get my wages, I'll leave here and go back home to see my parents, wife, and son. I have been working outside for more than half a year and haven't returned home even during the Chinese New Year, so I want to see my family."

His words were full of gratitude to that mysterious person and eagerness to get back home.

Fell from high?

Was caught by a mysterious person?

Zhao Menfeng directed his gaze at Wang Ke for an instant. He gave Wang Ke a meaningful look and then turned to Gao Xinmin, "How about that mysterious person who saved you yesterday?"

Hearing Zhao Menfeng asking about that, Gao Xinmin said with a bitter smile, "I don't know. Though I was caught by my benefactor and fell on him when I fell off, I was also dazed, and I managed to get up off the ground after a long time. My benefactor saved me but had left before I earthed to myself. I only felt that his arms might be dislocated after catching me!"

Speaking of which, he made a pause and then continued, "There's one more thing. I'm afraid that my benefactor might be badly injured as I found some blood on the ground."

Zhao Menfeng was stupefied for a moment and then directed his gaze at Wang Ke's head. He had got an answer in his mind, a shocking answer.

When he finished the experiment with Wang Ke this morning, he found an injury on Wang Ke's head. He had asked him about that at that time, but Wang Ke just explained vaguely.

Besides, after spending the morning together, he keenly noticed that there was something wrong with Wang Ke's arms which seemed to be weak. His symptom was like that of resetting an arm after its dislocation.
