Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 34: Captain Li, Let Me Show You My Fist

Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Captain Li, Let Me Show You My Fist

"Oh, so it’s Jiang Feng. I’ve heard you were promoted by Commander Han?"

Li Minhe finally spoke.

"Thanks to Lord Commander’s appreciation, I am able to serve as an adjutant in the third layer."

Jiang Feng said cautiously, looking like he didn’t want to offend Li Minhe.

"We all serve the Court. Don’t get it wrong, Prison Chief Jiang."

Li Minhe sneered coldly.

"My mistake, you are correct, my lord."

Jiang Feng bowed deeply once again.

"You may leave now; I’ll summon you if necessary."

Li Minhe’s attitude was indifferent. Jiang Feng had come empty-handed, not the way a subordinate meets a superior for the first time. Although his attitude was acceptable, without a gift, even the best demeanor seemed perfunctory.

"Your subordinate takes his leave."

Jiang Feng turned and left.

"My lord, it seems Jiang Feng doesn’t respect you!"

"He actually came empty-handed."

"If you don’t show him some true colors, in the future, it might be hard for you to command respect!"

Several Prison Chiefs beside Li Minhe began to speak.

"Hmm!"

Li Minhe smashed the teacup, saying sinisterly, "Don’t rush. Commander Han has called for me. I’ll deal with him later."

"I’m going."

With Fifth Grade Blood Refining Realm cultivation, Jiang Feng’s senses were sharp, and he heard Li Minhe and Prison Chief Sun’s conversation clearly. Seeing his own empty hands, Jiang Feng then understood why Li Minhe’s attitude had always been so cold.

He looked anxious, feeling that the identity of Prison Chief was a trouble.

...

Li Minhe arrived at Han Dong’s small courtyard.

Knocking, he said, "Your subordinate pays respects to Lord Commander."

"Rise. How far has the renovation plan I asked you to watch over progressed?"

Han Dong was in her separate courtyard, breathing and absorbing qi.

She was obsessed with martial arts.

Given her background, she should have had a better official position.

Staying at Zhenbei Prison allowed her a relaxed job and plenty of time to cultivate.

"This renovation plan mainly targets the first layer. As per your instructions, I’ve assigned Liu Shanhai to handle it, and currently, it’s one-third completed. It’ll be fully finished in a month."

Li Minhe reported.

"Hmm, keep a close watch. If another rebel faction tries to hijack the prison, they must not easily breach the entrance passage."

Han Dong spoke with her eyes closed.

A visible whirlwind of energy surrounded her body, entering through her mouth, nose, and pores.

As her abdomen rose and fell, it seemed like a gentle stream was flowing through her bloodstream.

"Understood, my lord."

Li Minhe was about to leave but then thought of something. Experimentally, he added, "By the way, Jiang Feng, who you personally transferred from the first to the third layer as Prison Chief, has started his duties in the third layer today."

Han Dong did not respond, seeming to have reached a crucial moment in her internal breathing.

Li Minhe withdrew immediately.

Leaving Han Dong’s separate courtyard, he smiled, thinking to himself, "Really consider Commander Han your backing, thinking I can’t deal with you."

Han Dong didn’t respond.

Letting Li Minhe believe that Han Dong’s mention of Jiang Feng was just casual talk.

He then took several Prison Chiefs, including Sun, to find Jiang Feng, but didn’t see him in the workroom. After asking around, he learned Jiang Feng was in the backyard.

Zhenbei Prison is quite large.

Especially the third layer, which is exceptionally spacious.

Behind the prison cells, there is a spacious courtyard. Although the courtyard offers hardly any view of the sky, with only a few rays of light coming through the top ventilation openings.

Yet, for personnel who have been working in the prison for a long time, it’s rather enjoyable to rest in this courtyard.

"Prison Chief Jiang, it’s your first day on the job, and you’re not working in the office. What are you doing here?"

Li Minhe questioned.

"My lord, I just happened to have something to discuss with you."

Jiang Feng was taken aback, not expecting Li Minhe to find him in the courtyard. He came here hoping for some peace to think about how to mend relations with Li Minhe.

Now that Li Minhe had come here, he reached into his pocket, intending to bribe Li Minhe with silver.

This was the best method he could think of.

As for using Han Dong?

Jiang Feng knew better; he had only met Han Dong once, she might have forgotten him already. Trying to use her to intimidate Li Minhe, if Han Dong found out, it could be even more troublesome than offending Li Minhe.

Better to settle it straightforwardly with some silver taels.

"The rebels hijacked the prison, and Prison Chief Jiang took the lead in the first layer and not only survived but apprehended the rebels, showing that Prison Chief Jiang’s skills are quite good."

Li Minhe chuckled.

"My lord overpraises me. Compared to you, my little skills are insignificant."

Jiang Feng felt something was amiss.

"Prison Chief Jiang, don’t be modest. While Prison Chief Sun and the others are here, let them learn a few moves from you."

Li Minhe wouldn’t easily let Jiang Feng off.

He had no personal vendetta against Jiang Feng.

But when Jiang Feng first arrived on the third level, he did not visit Li Minhe, and when he finally did, he came empty-handed. If he didn’t teach Jiang Feng a lesson, how could he establish himself in the future?

"Little me is no match for Prison Chief Sun and them."

Jiang Feng said awkwardly.

"Old Sun."

Li Minhe ignored him and shouted.

"Mr. Sun requests guidance from Prison Chief Jiang."

Understanding Li Minhe’s intentions instantly, Prison Chief Sun, as a henchman, clasped his fists toward Jiang Feng and unleashed the Prison Guard Long Fist, aiming a punch at Jiang Feng’s abdomen.

Jiang Feng dodged.

Prison Chief Sun pursued and aimed another punch at his face.

Jiang Feng dodged again.

"I wonder how long you can keep dodging."

Prison Chief Sun was furious, having both punches dodged made him lose face.

Jiang Feng knew this wasn’t a solution; Li Minhe intended for Prison Chief Sun to show him a lesson. If he kept dodging, it would only intensify Li Minhe’s resentment.

Now, he could only endure.

Thus, he "clumsily" took a punch from Prison Chief Sun.

"Ahhh!"

Jiang Feng rolled on the ground, clutching his chest, and struggled to stand up, admiringly saying, "Prison Chief Sun, I surrender; your fist technique is very formidable."

"Humph, I’ve been practicing the Prison Guard Long Fist for twenty years; a punch with two decades of power is hard for anyone to withstand."

Prison Chief Sun said proudly, feeling he gave Li Minhe some satisfaction.

However, with a Seventh Grade Realm cultivation, Li Minhe felt Jiang Feng was pretending.

He approached nonchalantly.

Smiling, he said, "Prison Chief Jiang, don’t hold grudges. Prison Chief Sun was merely sparring with you; you’ll need to cooperate in the future."

"Captain Li is right, I understand."

Jiang Feng nodded.

"Boom!"

But in the moment he lowered his head, Li Minhe punched him in the chest.

Jiang Feng reflexively blocked with his hand.

Li Minhe’s body staggered backward.

"My Lord..."

Jiang Feng’s expression changed; he didn’t expect Li Minhe’s move, which now made Li Minhe lose face, making things even tougher in the future.

Prison Chief Sun and others were stunned.

"Prison Chief Jiang, remarkable skills; I underestimated you. Take this!"

Li Minhe’s expression turned ominous; he had sneakily attacked yet was blocked by Jiang Feng, witnessed by subordinates, affecting his standing.

Immediately, he charged at Jiang Feng with full speed.

Seventh Grade Realm’s Qi Blood fully erupted, he launched a Dragon Claw Shadow attack at Jiang Feng’s face.

Jiang Feng’s mind raced.

Weighing pros and cons, he realized he couldn’t retreat anymore.

Thinking of this, with Fifth Grade Blood Refining Realm Qi Blood, he empowered the Minor Success level Prison Guard Long Fist.

Boom!

Jiang Feng threw a punch.

It roared like tiger and dragon.

In the separate courtyard, Han Dong, who was meditating, opened his eyes, noticing the disturbance.

"This..."

Li Minhe felt a terrifying surge of Qi Blood rushing in, his previously gloomy face turned especially panicked.

He thought he would be punched away by Jiang Feng.

If not dead, at least crippled.

Yet at the critical moment, Jiang Feng’s fist bypassed his claws, avoiding his chest, and landed on the ground.

The fist force galloped.

The blue bricks on the ground slightly trembled.

"Prison... Prison Chief Jiang."

Li Minhe stood frozen, sweat beads appeared on his forehead, his claws were on Jiang Feng’s shoulder, yet it felt like touching iron bricks.

He realized Jiang Feng had shown mercy.

The power from that punch evidently exceeded his own, the kind of power only possessed by Middle Third Grade Martial Artists.

He suddenly understood.

Jiang Feng didn’t need Han Dong as a backing.

He himself was the greatest backing.
