As Wei Wushuang entered the room, Lin Qian smiled mischievously and turned to Lei Qian, "Heh heh heh, Lei Qian..."
Seeing Lin Qian flash such an inscrutable smile at him, Lei Qian couldn't help but shiver, taking several steps back. "Boss, what do you want to do?"
"Of course, it's training!" Lin Qian suddenly spoke, kicking sharply at Lei Qian. The wind from his leg whistled, reaching the opponent in the blink of an eye.
Ding!
However, unlike before, Lin Qian's kick did not land on Lei Qian's chest but was instead blocked by the Thunderbolt Sword pulsing with purple Soul Power.
"Interesting, your reaction is much faster than before." Seeing his kick blocked, Lin Qian's eyes revealed a strange light. "We haven't seen each other for three days, and one must take a fresh look."
As his voice faded, bright yellow Soul Power burst forth from Lin Qian's body as he attacked Lei Qian again.
Lei Qian composed himself, preparing with all his might. Lin Qian could afford to let his guard down when fighting him, but he absolutely couldn't do the same.
Although it was said to be cultivation, based on past experience, Lei Qian knew that Lin Qian never held back, his strikes were exceptionally ruthless.
Once again, it was dusk, and Lei Qian lay in a pitiful state on the ground, his head bruised like a pig's, gasping for breath.
Lin Qian sat beside him, drenched in sweat but unscathed.
"If it weren't for my experience battling Lei Kuo, I would have thought I was useless." Lei Qian lay on the ground, looking at the clouds painted by the sunset, speaking humorously.
"But what the boss said that day woke me up; if I don't believe in myself, how can I become strong?"
Lin Qian also smiled, looking at his hands, "What's most important is comparing yourself to yourself. Being stronger today than in the past and, unknowingly, many have already fallen behind you."
Lying on the ground, Lei Qian seemed to gain some understanding, remaining silent.
Suddenly, a shadow flew over, smacking him in the face.
With his face already beaten and swollen like a pig's head, being hit on the face brought such pain that Lei Qian screamed, bouncing off the ground.
Sitting upright, Lei Qian discovered that the shadow thrown on his face was an unnamed book.
"Here's the surprise I promised you, take a look." Seeing Lei Qian's puzzled glance, Lin Qian smiled, indicating for him to open it.
Dubiously, Lei Qian opened the book and began to read its contents.
Just after reading the first page, Lei Qian's expression changed, and the deeper he went, the more serious his demeanor became.
After finishing all the content and closing the book, Lei Qian sat there stunned, his heart in turmoil for a long time.
Lei Qian looked up at Lin Qian, about to speak, only to be stopped with a wave.
"Don't ask where it came from; even if you did, I wouldn't bother telling you. Just know that this is unique in all the world." Lin Qian pointed at the book in Lei Qian's hand, speaking slowly, "And its effects will surely exceed your imagination."
After hearing Lin Qian's words, Lei Qian couldn't help but hold onto the book, caressing it again and again, too excited to know what to say.
The contents of the book were cultivation techniques, not only including the meridian routes for cultivating Soul Power but also how to effectively temper the body.
If it were just these, it wouldn't be enough to shock Lei Qian. What truly excited him was that the cultivation techniques seemed tailor-made for him.
The Thunderbolt Skill that Lei Qian was currently practicing was indeed remarkable, but compared to this unnamed cultivation technique, it was as worthless as dung.
This unnamed cultivation technique seemed born for him; Lei Qian was certain that once cultivated, it would result in earthshattering changes.
"Catch!"
Lin Qian's voice suddenly rang, and Lei Qian instinctively reached out to catch a warm Crystal Bottle, containing the familiar pale red Potion.
However, today's Potion seemed significantly deeper in color.
"Every night you undergo transformative changes because this Potion fully activates your potential. The next day's sparring with you also helps you get used to and control the increased power."
Lin Qian's explanation was understandable to Lei Qian, who looked up at him, uncertain of what to say.
"Why are you so good to me?"
"Aren't you calling me boss? Besides, you'll have to help me in the future; do you think these Potions and techniques are for free?" Lin Qian grinned, standing up and lifting Lei Qian off the ground. "Hurry back, what are you lingering here for?"
Lei Qian solemnly nodded at Lin Qian. After storing the unnamed techniques and Potion, he left the residence on Maoqing Mountain.
Watching Lei Qian's departing figure, Lin Qian also smiled.
Lei Qian's desire to become stronger was one reason Lin Qian helped him.
According to past encounters and the data observed, Zhuge Ming's analysis suggested that Lei Qian contained immense potential that had yet to be unleashed.
Before a substitute puppet was developed, aside from Zhao Long, Zhuge Ming thought someone useful should indeed be by His Majesty's side.
Since Lei Qian came willingly, how could they not use him?
The unnamed techniques that Lin Qian gave to Lei Qian were developed by the Heavenly Art Department based on his data, coupled with the Nirvana Flame Bath Potion, to maximize his potential.
As Zhuge Ming noted, if Lei Qian wanted to work alongside Lin Qian, then his current weak strength was simply unworthy.
If his strength was lacking, they'd train him further.
Moreover, Lei Qian was an excellent sparring partner, even if there seemed nothing of note when Lin Qian fought him.
In reality, whenever Lin Qian sparred with Lei Qian, Zhuge Ming would lead the Heavenly Art Department to use the Sky Trace to increase Lin Qian's burden.
Whenever they acted, Lin Qian felt as if he had a mountain on his shoulders, and his Soul Power seemed locked.
However, Lin Qian's body was too strong; Lei Qian's attacks, with a certain amount of Soul Power protection, couldn't harm him.
"Your Majesty, this person is indeed not bad; with no complaints, he is capable of endurance and usable." Before Lin Qian's eyes, appearing again was the only visible system frenzy, showcasing Zhuge Ming's visage.
Lin Qian lightly hummed in agreement, nodding, "Yes, indeed."
"Your Majesty, the world you inhabit is about to face a Middle Ages relic in twenty-five days. At that time, you will meet the future empress. Should we prepare some gifts?" Zhuge Ming asked Lin Qian with a smile.
Zhuge Ming's words made Lin Qian smack his forehead, "Oh, thank goodness you reminded me; I almost forgot."
Yet immediately after, Lin Qian showed a troubled expression, "But when I see Xinxin, what should I give her as a gift?"
"Your Majesty, as you live your reborn life, weren't you childhood sweethearts with the future empress? Why not recall your past together..."
"Hmm, well said; I know what to give. Xinxin will surely like it!"
