Aston rose up from the bed and glanced at the window he then adjusted his position on the bed so that he was seating cross legged than he started the circulation of his internal qi he gathered the energy to his body and circulated it through his meridians.
Very soon the small stream of qi started surging and turned to a raging river which he allowed to assault the barrier obstructing his breakthrough. Bam bam bam bam bam bam bam bam the river of qi assaulted the barrier,very soon the barrier started cracking and was on the verge of collapsing very soon a sheen of perspiration could be seen on his a face. Assaulting a breakthrough barrier was no easy thing as the he sensation it gave off was the same as ripping your innards apart very soon he became so exhausted that he couldn't lift his finger, halting the process Aston glanced outside the window again and saw the streaks of sunlight painting the horizon, he then prepared to lie down after lying down he immediately sat up and took out a flask of wine which he used to rinse his mouth after which he lied down back, he sighed and shook his head now the pretense begins.

Three months after that the whole Zhaowei kingdom was plunged into an economic crisis almost crippling the nation's economy, one must imagine how much the king had paid to hire the famed doctor Liang Mingyu. Till today nobody knew of the remodeling of the dantian other than the head enuch, his father, himself, and the doctor. He had always played the role of the palace tyrant bullying his siblings and extorting them so as to remain as inconspicuous as possible.
