I have practiced so well that every attack I make is sure to hit.

Chapter 45 I can’t help myself
"Best regards, Master."

Zhang Lingfeng watched Ao Dagang leave.

"Hey, the master is too ambitious. Maybe Inner City, the Qian family, and even me are just a springboard for him. No wonder Zhang Ju said that having such a master is a blessing or a curse."

Zhang Lingfeng pulled out the flying knife nailed into the earth wall.

It was discovered that the flying knife that Ao Da had just shot was not only stuck in the earth wall along with the handle, but the tip of the knife was also twisted.

"The bone phase cultivation level is so terrifying!"

"Skin, flesh, muscles, bones, viscera, spirit, eight levels of Dharma. I don't know what the style of the flying knife thrown by a strong person in the realm of gods will look like?"

"No matter what trouble Master may cause, he is my biggest supporter at the moment. I have to fight for the position of Deputy Chief of Mission, both for him and myself."

"The old man is right. If you don't have power, how can you reach the pinnacle of martial arts?"

Zhang Lingfeng seems to have realized something.

Skin, flesh, muscles, bones, organs, energy and spirit, each layer of the Dharma phase requires corresponding exercises to be opened. Even Ao Dagang needs the Chen family to practice exercises in order to open the bone phase.

In the future, the higher the Dharma phase, the greater the difficulty coefficient, and the higher the level of the required skills. If Ao Dagang cannot be helped to break through, how can Ao Dagang help him.

To get Ao Dagang's full teachings through just one apprenticeship ceremony only exists in novels, and is impossible to encounter in the real world.

The so-called deep love between master and disciple cannot be based on one party's contribution alone.

Zhang Lingfeng realized later that he already agreed with Ao Dagang's approach.

Time passes day by day.

Another month has passed in the blink of an eye.

The remnants of the Red Lotus Sect appeared, and the county magistrate took drastic measures, washing the inner and outer cities with blood. Everyone involved with the Red Lotus Sect did not end well.

This month Zhang Lingfeng witnessed what it means to be more powerful than the sky.

The county magistrate said that no matter whether he was involved with the Red Lotus Sect or not, as long as he was suspected, he would be convicted. Many families who usually did not deal with the Qian family suffered heavy losses in this turmoil.

The Qian family's control over Qingyang County has become increasingly solid.

In the past month, Ao Dagang and the Chen family have benefited the most.

Also today, the county magistrate issued an order. Chen Duling was promoted to the chief mission officer of the outer city for his meritorious service in arresting the rebels. Chen Dawang was transferred back to the inner city. It is unknown what position he held. Some people said that he was hidden. He was called back by the Chen family to manage family affairs.

Chen Duling became the chief police officer, the deputy chief police officer position was vacant, and the Chen family members were ready to make a move.

Chen Yuanlin, the police officer in the east of the city, found Chen Duling in the headquarters.

"We are all direct descendants of the Chen family. I have reached the perfection of the flesh phase and will soon be able to step into the muscle phase. The position of deputy chief mission officer cannot fall into the hands of the Qian family or Ao Dagang."

Chen Yuanlin is in his early thirties.

After the Chen family took control of the outer city, they were the direct descendants of the Chen family who followed Chen Dawang and had taken over the east side of the city for some time.

Ao Dagang's team, except for Zhang Lingfeng and others, were basically replaced by the Chen family, or were transferred from the arresting squad to the strong squad to look after the warehouse.

Nowadays, in addition to the north of the city, the chasi and most of the chaotou in the west, east and south of the city are descendants of the Chen family.

Chen Yuanlin is the most powerful police officer in the four urban districts. In the eyes of the public, he is also the most likely candidate to become the deputy chief police officer in the outer city.

"For the position of Deputy Chief Chaplain, you must have the strength of the Jinxiang Realm to be qualified. You are still young and not strong enough. Even if the family is willing to help you, you still can't pass the level of County Lord."

Chen Duling reminded.

"I understand, I will activate the muscles in the shortest possible time."

Chen Yuanlin said loudly.

"Ok, I will wait for you."

Chen Duling nodded.

"Thank you!"

Chen Yuanlin looked excited. Chen Duling's words of "I'll wait for you" made him seem to see that Chen Duling would leave the position of deputy chief commissioner to him.

After he left. Zhang Ju said: "Miss, Ao Dagang bought three years for Zhang Lingfeng, if..."

"There is no if. The family gave him the technique to unlock the bones. He promised not to get involved in the outer city. Now that he has broken his promise, the family cannot sit still and wait for death."

Chen Duling interrupted.

"But Zhang Lingfeng..."

"He is him, not the Chen family after all."

Chen Duling sighed.

As Zhang Lingfeng's boss, he watched Zhang Lingfeng grow up and even became a police officer in the north of the city with his own help. However, because Ao Dagang continued to get involved in the outer city and was too close to the county magistrate, the Chen family's status in the inner city was endangered. Her relationship with Zhang Lingfeng has also undergone subtle changes.

……

"The courtyard of the Chief Chaplain is indeed extraordinary. It even has a garden and a lake. Compared to my small courtyard in the north of the city, it is not very beautiful."

As a routine matter, Zhang Lingfeng reported to Chen Duling some things that had happened in the north of the city in the past few days.

It was the first time he walked into the courtyard of the Chief Police Department and couldn't help but look at it carefully.

"If you want a beautiful yard, buy it yourself. With your current ability, it is not difficult to buy such a yard. If you have nothing else to do, go back quickly!"

"Don't enter this courtyard without my permission in the future."

Chen Duling said calmly.

Zhang Lingfeng's playful smile froze for an instant. Realizing that something was wrong, he hurriedly saluted Chen Duling, bowed and said, "Yes, I understand."

"Miss, Ao Dagang..."

Just as he was about to leave, Zhang Ju ran in from outside the yard.

Seeing Zhang Lingfeng was there, he swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

"What's wrong with my master?"

Zhang Lingfeng couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Ju looked at Chen Duling.

Chen Duling allowed Zhang Ju to continue.

"Your master has just accepted a direct disciple, named Qian Shiyuan."

Zhang Ju said.

Hearing this, both Zhang Lingfeng and Chen Duling were unexpected.

"The surname is Qian, a person honored by the county."

Zhang Lingfeng whispered.

"In the past, Master Ao only had you as his direct disciple. Now that you have an additional junior disciple, you must practice harder in the future. I heard that Qian Shiyuan's talent is very high, and he is a county official. Don't let him surpass you."

Zhang Ju kindly reminded.

"It's a good thing that my master has one more direct disciple. There are still many things to deal with in the north of the city. I'll go back first."

Zhang Lingfeng smiled awkwardly.

He was not afraid that someone would beat him to it and inherit Ao Dagang's mantle, but he was afraid that Ao Dagang would pass on his skills to the other party and ignore him.

On the contrary, if someone stepped forward to attract the attention of the Red Lotus Sect for him, why wouldn't Zhang Lingfeng do it?

However, after Ao Dagang became a popular figure in the county, he accepted the children of the Qian family as his direct disciples, which was tantamount to being completely entangled with the Qian family.

Whether it is a rights transaction or an exchange of skills, Ao Dagang's situation will make the Chen family feel uneasy. No wonder Chen Duling would treat him like that.

"If I become the deputy chief police officer, will I go against the Chen family and go against the entire Chen family?"

Zhang Lingfeng discovered that as Ao Dagang's identity changed, new enemies and new friends appeared.
