My Cultivation Starting from Archery

"So, I grew up following my master since childhood, even before the eldest young master, I was already with the Sun Family."

"I truly considered my master as my father."

"But master grew old..."

"After that, as the eldest disciple, the eldest brother, I must take on the heavy responsibilities of the Sun Family, so there are some things I have to do."

"What the eldest brother said is true."

Chen Sansi, uninformed of the full picture, didn't need to make judgements, more talk led to more errors, it was better just to listen.

Lü Ji personally poured him wine, then turned to ask, "Junior brother, do you know that you are his closed-door disciple?"

Chen Sansi replied, "It's an immense honor."

"At his age, he still insists on taking one more disciple, surely..."

Lü Ji, while picking up some dishes, seemed to ask casually, "Is there some secret technique he wants to pass on?"

The moment when the design is revealed!

After a long preamble, talking of hardships and sharing feelings.

This statement was probably the real purpose.

Chen Sansi found something very strange.

The master and the fourth senior brother had instructed that matters regarding the Immortal Law must absolutely not be divulged to a fourth person, naturally including Lü Ji.

But if the eldest brother really was the master's disciple, indeed no different from his own son, why had he not passed on the Magic Skill for over thirty years? What was the reason?

"He taught me a lot."

Chen Sansi pointed to a bundle placed on a chair by the wall, "Over a hundred secret manuals, each of immense value!"

"Oh?"

Lü Ji looked at the bundle, then at him, sipping his wine without speaking.

"Eldest brother, could you take a look for me?"

Chen Sansi offered, "Eldest brother, being in the Martial Saint Realm, can surely give some guidance to this junior brother."

"Good, good, since the junior brother says so, this senior brother naturally cannot keep secrets."

Lü Ji set down his wine bowl, indeed began to open the bundle and look through it, but as time passed, the disappointment in his eyes increasingly intensified, and finally, he took a deep breath, "Junior brother, this set of boxing techniques, your senior brother has also practiced, the key to it is..."

He consecutively shared insights into the principles of more than a dozen Cultivation Techniques.

Chen Sansi clasped his fists, "Thank you for the guidance, senior brother."

"Hmm."

Lü Ji slowly put down the booklet, "I still have military duties to attend to, I won't stay long, I hope for your understanding."

After he finished speaking, he squeezed his way out the door.

"Junior brother, until next time."

The third Senior Brother Nie Yuan also hurried to follow.

After walking a distance, he finally spoke, "Eldest brother, how did it go?"

"Nothing at all."

Lü Ji shook his head, "Those techniques, as long as you are a True Disciple, you can all practice."

"Could it be..."

Nie Yuan pondered, "Master taking a closed-door disciple was just a decoy, he actually had no intention of passing on the Immortal Law?"

"It's also possible he has just entered."

Lü Ji, striding vigorously, "Who passes on core secret techniques on the first day of entry, let's wait and see."

"Then eldest brother, do you need me to keep an eye on him for you, maybe it's hidden somewhere?"

"Hmm."

...

"Truly, one must guard against others."

Chen Sansi sat down again.

It seemed very likely that the Unity Spear Technique had been leaked by the eldest brother.

"Little junior brother~"

While he was contemplating, suddenly a fragrant breeze rushed at him, "Take me home."

"Senior sister, let me call a maid for you."

Chen Sansi hurriedly brushed off the other's wandering hands, then gathered his things to leave the room.

"Junior brother, don't mind it."

Fang Qingyun sat in a wheelchair, watching the moon as he waited, "Ninth Junior Sister was just teasing you, she's always like that."

"I know."

Chen Sansi casually remarked, "I didn't realize that senior brothers and sisters are all so young."

Roughly estimating, Sun Xiangzong was also over ninety years old, but the oldest of his disciples, including Lü Ji, was only around forty.

"It's because the master started taking disciples late."

Fang Qingyun explained, "The Eight Camps initially were recruited by the master and his seniors together, later as the seniors died, it turned to brothers, after the brothers it turned to juniors, and only at an age of sixty did he start selecting Selected Point to take disciples."

"Including Bu Qi as well."

"Master spent the first half of his life obsessed with Martial Arts, building achievements, and only after turning sixty did he think of continuing the family line, leaving behind five children, from which only Bu Qi and Sun Li remain."

"He only married at sixty?"

Chen Sansi found it unimaginable.

Martial arts practitioners were strong and healthy; this age was not problematic, but could one really abstain for the first sixty years?

A tough person, no wonder he achieved so much.

"I'm here waiting for you to tell you, in two days, I will start a journey to the capital with master."

Fang Qingyun didn't wait for the other to ask, continuing to explain, "Expanding the army is a major matter, just a petition won't suffice, Master and I must personally go to the capital to meet the Emperor, to convince His Majesty to agree."

Chen Sansi understood.

Expanding the military force to one hundred fifty thousand was a terrifying figure, naturally not a trifling matter, and even the Emperor alone couldn't decide, it required discussions on multiple fronts to finalize.

"Old Two, Old Five, and Old Qi, they all have to return to their respective stations."

Fang Qingyun stated, "Old One and Old Three will be in Liangzhou, but... Ninth Sister will also stay to keep you company for a while, she can be trusted, if you need any help with anything, feel free to seek her."

"When will you guys return?"

"Half a year, a year? It might even be longer, we will come back when our business is finished."

Fang Qingyun estimated, "There are still troubles with the Witch God Sect in the city, you must be very careful."

"The Witch God Sect..."

Chen Sansi had been wanting to ask, "Senior brother, can we really not find where this group is hiding?"

"It's bizarre."

Fang Qingyun shook his head, "The City Guard Army will continue the investigation, and your Reserve Camp will also be involved, whoever can track down the whereabouts of the Witch God Sect will be credited with a great meritorious deed."

"Then brother, until next time."

p>"Until next time."

Chen Sansi clasped his fists in farewell, carrying his large and small bags, and left the Governor Mansion.

By the time he got home, it was already Midnight.
