[You hunted a Beast General Level monster alone, and your family's reputation in Huazhong Base City gradually grew, taking a step towards prosperity.]
[Rewards: One Herb Spirit, the fifth level of Ninefold Thunder Saber, and mastery of the Intent Realm movement technique.]
Shen Ping was stunned as he looked at the text that appeared in the virtual frame. He was also surprised.
He hadn't expected that the fame earned from his personal strength would also grant the family rewards. Moreover, the rewards were as generous as those for offspring. This indicated that personal fame contributed to the family's reputation and provided a significant boost to the family's foundation.
Thinking about it, it made sense. If the strongest individual in the family wasn't strong enough, they couldn't deter those who would cause trouble, and the family wouldn't be able to develop.
"Industry, offspring, reputation... Up to now, all have been rewarded. It's impossible to continue gaining them in the short term; it can only be accumulated bit by bit over time."
The family had just begun a new chapter.
Progress in any direction was easy to reward, but once the family developed, it would be difficult to obtain rewards as easily as now.
Regarding this.
Shen Ping was mentally prepared, but these rewards were enough for the current stage, especially the Herb Spirit he had obtained this time. Its value was immense, even the lowest-grade Herb Spirit far exceeded three hundred billion Life Water, and it was also unavailable on the market.
He wasn't in a rush to claim it.
He closed his eyes and rested on the rooftop. The next morning, at dawn, he packed all the Beast General Level materials into his tactical backpack and left the county, returning to the military base. He didn't wait long before taking a train back to Huazhong Base City.
The train station was not far from the HR Alliance store.
Li Yuewei kept glancing into the distance. When the train stopped, her eyes immediately searched for a familiar figure. Only when she saw Shen Ping, fully armed, did a smile appear on her face.
"Honey, you're finally willing to come back."
They embraced.
She glared at Shen Ping with a hint of resentment. He had been gone for nearly three months, without any consideration for how she felt being alone.
Shen Ping gave a dry laugh. "I'm back now, aren't I?"
Then, he lowered his voice and whispered in her ear, "I'll serve my wife well tonight."
Li Yuewei's legs went weak, and her cheeks flushed.
They left the train station.
The two didn't even glance at the company, instead heading straight back to Nanyuan District.
Li Yuewei's parents, being understanding, took the child and went to visit the martial artist family next door.
Shen Ping removed his combat suit and quickly took a cold shower in the bathroom. Impatiently, he went to the bedroom and pounced on his wife on the bed.
"Look at you, so eager. I thought you'd forgotten about me, huh."
"How could I? I think about my wife countless times every day."
"Smooth talker..."
Before she could finish, her lips were sealed.
Soon after.
Her body immediately went limp. Catching her breath, she quickly said, "You, you be gentle. I just recovered."
Shen Ping was a High War General-level martial artist, so he had very strong control over his muscle strength. However, after holding back for so long, he couldn't help but lose control. After it was over, Li Yuewei couldn't get out of bed, just like in the first few days after they got married.
"My wife's physical fitness needs to improve too."
This gave him a reminder, and he immediately went to the training hall to collect his reward.
As a Herb Spirit shaped like a ginseng appeared in his hand, a refreshing fragrance filled his nostrils. At the same time, information about the Herb Spirit appeared in his mind: "Blue Whisker Ginseng, can greatly enhance cell activity and vitality, and strengthen bone density..."
There are many kinds of Herb Spirits, and each has different effects. For example, Bai Lu herb is used to treat injuries, and the Thousand-Year Black Crow Root can continuously improve physical strength. This Blue Whisker Ginseng has a similar effect to the Thousand-Year Black Crow Root, and only a small piece is needed to enhance the physical fitness of ordinary people.
If an Initial War General martial artist were to consume it alone, their physical fitness could triple within six months, and it could continue to improve afterward. For a High War General martial artist like Shen Ping, it could at least double. However, if multiple people use it, the effect will be dispersed.
Shen Ping's face lit up with joy. With this Blue Whisker Ginseng, he could consume most of it himself, and the rest could improve his wife's physical fitness. Then, her endurance during their intimate moments would also improve significantly.
Feeling pleased, Shen Ping picked up his warblade and practiced the fifth form of the Ninefold Thunder Saber.
Days passed.
October arrived.
A cold wave from the north swept south, and the climate of Huazhong Base City, which had just entered late autumn, suddenly entered early winter. The martial artist families in the district's streets all changed into thick down jackets. Last year at this time, his wife would have put one on too, but this year, after continuously taking the Blue Whisker Ginseng, her physique was much stronger. Even wearing a sweater, she didn't feel cold.
"Honey, what medicinal herbs did you use to make the infused liquor? It's so effective, let's give some to my parents tomorrow."
On the way to work, Li Yuewei casually said.
Shen Ping drove, his eyes fixed ahead. "It's a type of herb. It's fine for Mom and Dad to drink, but don't give it to other relatives. This herb is very precious; a single piece is worth tens of millions."
"How much?"
"Over tens of millions."
"Honey, you really are generous."
"You're my wife; no amount of money is too much."
Li Yuewei was touched by those words. Without thinking, she said, "It's so valuable. Let's not drink it. I'm in good health and don't need supplements. We'll have many places to spend money in the future. You should save some and not waste it."
Shen Ping chuckled. "It's not that much. By the way, I plan to go to the wilderness area again in a while."
"Why are you going again?"
"Winter is coming, and it'll be easier to hunt in the wilderness during this time. I want to earn some money."
Hearing this,
his wife couldn't help but say, "Honey, we don't have to worry about food and drink anymore. Even for the kids, you don't need to work so hard. A while ago, Brother Chen from our district broke both of his legs. I heard three of his teammates died. I don't want anything to happen to you."
Shen Ping explained, "I want to have another child. While I can still push myself, I want to build up more of a foundation for the kids. I'll only be gone for a little over half a month, and nothing will happen."
Li Yuewei looked at Shen Ping's expression and sighed. Having been with him for over a year, she understood his personality somewhat. Once he made a decision, it was hard to change his mind. If she didn't agree, he would still find a way to go.
"Alright, but you promised, just over half a month."
"Thank you for understanding, honey."
After seeing his wife off,
Shen Ping arrived at Pingwei Materials Company, reviewed the company's accounts as usual, called a morning meeting with the manager and employees, and then drove towards the Limit Martial Arts Academy headquarters in the city center after a quick tour.
Unlike the Limit Martial Arts Academy branches in districts and satellite cities.
The headquarters in Huazhong Base City covered a vast area. The martial artists coming and going were generally at the War General level or above, and occasionally, one could even see a War God. As for the higher-ranking chairman and inspectors, they were rarely seen.
His main purpose for coming today, besides testing his punching power, was to meet with a supervisor.
He parked in the basement of the academy.
Shen Ping then took the elevator to the sixth floor, which housed a super-large training hall with several punching power testing machines and a hundred-meter track.
He casually found a testing machine and threw a punch.
The data was quickly displayed: 58,100 kg.
It had only been a little over five months since he last used Dragon Blood, and his punching power had increased by more than ten thousand kilograms. While the residual effects of the Dragon Blood played a part, the Herb Spirit was the main contributor. He had consumed most of the medicinal liquor steeped with the Blue Whisker Ginseng, while his wife had only taken a small portion.
Yet, with only a small piece of the Blue Whisker Ginseng, he had made such significant gains.
