My Sword Intent Can Be Infinitely Improved

Chapter 33: Cause and Effect

After Su Yang packed up, he planned to set off for Pingshan City. Just as he was about to leave, Ye Jiang came looking for him.

"Brother Su, do you want to celebrate tonight?"

"No, I need to go back for a while. Since I'm going to settle down in the prefecture city, I have to make some arrangements." Su Yang refused.

"Oh?" Ye Jiang nodded and said, "Alright, since Brother Su has something to do, I won't disturb you anymore."

This time, Ye Jiang didn't pester him. He was an understanding person. Sometimes, he could pester her, but sometimes, he could not be overly entangled.

That wouldn't make her feel good, it would only make her feel disgusted.

Su Yang then rode on the Wind Horse and quickly returned to Pingshan City. From when he came to when he left, it had only been less than three days.

The sun was setting, and Su Yang rushed back to the official road of Pingshan City when the sun was setting. The city gate was not far ahead. This was the time when the people who had gone out to farm carried their farm tools and drove the yellow cattle back.

When the commoners saw the Wind Horse, they only thought that it was an official who had come and did not care. When they saw the person on the horse, the fatigue on their faces that had been working hard for a day was swept away, and they were filled with smiles from the bottom of their hearts.

"Greetings, Lord Su."

"Lord Su, this is a wild fruit I picked on the mountain."

"No, no. Thank you, everyone. It's getting late. Everyone, return to the city as soon as possible."

These commoners were very enthusiastic. It was the kind of enthusiasm that came from the bottom of their hearts. A little wild fruit was nothing to Su Yang. However, to these farmers, it was also a precious item. They couldn't bear to eat it. At this moment, they were still holding it. If they didn't want to sell it, they wanted to take it back to satisfy their children's cravings.

How could Su Yang accept it? He did not like being the center of attention, so he rode away.

After he left, the people on the road did not calm down. They all spoke excitedly and talked about Su Yang.

...

"Zhang Hu welcomes your return!"

"Welcome back, sir!"

When Su Yang returned to Spring Wind Hall, he saw Zhang Hu and the other soldiers whose temperament had completely changed.

Before this, these soldiers were very lazy. But now, their essence, spirit, and soul had completely transformed. They had a certain firm belief and were firmly executing it.

He had to admit that this group of soldiers was really good. Perhaps not everyone was a hothead. They might be like this because Su Yang gave them more resources and better treatment.

But so what? As long as they did something practical, so what if they got the benefits they deserved?

Su Yang was not a brainwashing expert. With just a few words, he would make his subordinates work hard and not get any benefits in the end.

"Not bad. Zhang Hu, you've already broken through to eighth grade, right?" Su Yang use his sword intent and understood the strength of everyone in the courtyard. All of them had pretty decent promotions, so the resources he had obtained were not wasted.

Zhang Hu had also broken through the eighth grade and reached the seventh grade, which was more advantageous for his subsequent arrangements.

"Yes, my lord." Zhang Hu agreed.

"Not bad, you can become a permanent employee." Su Yang smiled.

"Sir…" Zhang Hu was puzzled. Before he could speak, Su Yang continued.

"I went to the provincial capital this time to participate in the inspection examination."

"From now on, I will be the Four Directions Inspector and will be in charge of the four military divisions of the prefecture. From now on, I will still be your superior, but I won't be in charge of you."

"Later, I will propose to Commander Zhang to appoint Zhang Hu as the new Weapon Master of Spring Wind Hall."

"Congratulations on your promotion!" The soldiers shouted again.

Su Yang waved his hand, "Zhang Hu, come with me."

Everyone dispersed, and Zhang Hu followed Su Yang into the inner courtyard.

Su Yang sat on the main seat and took out a stone first, "Come here, squeeze out a drop of blood from your fingertip and drip it on the stone."

Zhang Hu stepped forward and bit his fingertip without hesitation. After a drop of blood flowed out, he used his Qi to seal the wound. The blood dripped onto the stone, and an earthen yellow light rose up. Soon, it reached the height of two fingers.

"Not bad, you have a spiritual root, and it's an earth-type middle-grade spiritual root."Su Yang was very satisfied with this.

Zhang Hu's pupils dilated in shock. Spiritual roots? Wasn't that something only immortal cultivators had?

Su Yang took out three cultivation techniques and handed them to Zhang Hu, "Take these three cultivation methods and this spirit root testing stone."

"The Mountain and River Path Formation Technique is a cultivation technique for immortality, leading directly to foundation building."

"The Diamond Puppet Refining Art, if you can learn it, would be beneficial to you and provide decent assistance."

"As for this last one... it is an external cultivation technique called the Diamond Body, a third-grade external technique."

"Study hard. If there are talents worth nurturing, you can bestow them to them. Don't disappoint me."

Su Yang would not lose anything if he made a copy of these martial arts techniques for Zhang Hu. Up until now, Zhang Hu was a person worth nurturing. If he could invest now and grow, he would have a capable subordinate in the future.

It was like planting a seed.

Zhang Hu's eyes gradually turned from confusion to passion. Kneeling on one knee, he received the manual.

"Thank you, sir!"

"In the future, I will go through fire and water for you!"

"Practice diligently, but your current strength is not enough to go through fire and water," Su Yang said with a smile, before dismissing Zhang Hu.

After making arrangements for Spring Wind Hall, it was time to make a trip to Rejuvenation Hall.

The sky is not completely dark yet, Su Yang came to Rejuvenation Hall. The moment Su Yang entered, Liu Yurou, who was standing next to the counter, saw him.

"Lord Su, you're back?" Liu Yurou greeted him. Su Yang had told her before he left.

"Yes, I'm here to bid farewell to the two of you."Su Yang spoke and then briefly explained what had happened over the past few days.

"Congratulations on your promotion, Lord Su." Liu Yurou said sincerely, then continued, "Lord Su, don't you need this spirit body medicinal bath?"

"This medicinal bath has little effect on me, so I don't need it for the time being." Su Yang thought for a moment and said.

"Lord Su, if you still want to temper your body, I still have a ninth-grade medicinal bath recipe that can help you." Liu Yurou's eyes were filled with determination.

Initially, because Su Yang had dealt with Li Ming and saved her and her grandfather from being bullied, she had a good impression of Su Yang. Now, after a period of understanding and Su Yang's actions during this period of time, she had already firmly established this good impression in her heart.

"Oh?" Su Yang was pleasantly surprised."

"This medicinal bath recipe is called the Boiling Blood Medicinal Bath recipe. Because it's a family heirloom, I can't give you the prescription directly. If Lord Su provides the materials, Grandpa and I will help you refine it."

"This medicinal bath can be refined in advance and poured into the water when it is used."Liu Yurou explained in detail.

Her family's traditional medicinal bath recipe could raise a person's physique to the ninth grade. She did not soak in the medicinal bath, and Grandpa did not want her to soak in the medicinal bath either.

Su Yang thought to himself, "As you sow, so shall you reap." There must be a cause for every effect.

Although he didn't understand the reason for Liu Yurou's actions, it was probably because of what he had done in Pingshan City.
