However, compared to half a month ago, Autumn Adler has undergone a significant change.
During these half a month, Autumn Adler has been taking Blood Replenishing Pills and is no longer frail.
Her face is as pure as a lotus emerging from the water, with an enchanting blush, lively and beautiful.
She appears graceful and charming.
Absolutely a beauty in the making.
"What's the good news?"
Marshall Morgan asked with a smile.
"Young Master, you're always busy with your own cultivation and never come to see me. Let me tell you, I've already opened four meridians."
Autumn Adler whispered softly into Marshall's ear, a faint fragrance drifting into his nose, which was very pleasant.
Whoosh!
But Marshall didn't have a mind to enjoy it; he spewed tea right out of his mouth in disbelief, his eyes widening, staring at Autumn Adler incredulously as he asked, "Autumn, what did you say? You've opened four meridians already?"
"Yes, Young Master, isn't that strange? The meridians were easy to open. I just tried, and they opened right up."
Autumn Adler blinked her big eyes and asked curiously.
Marshall's lips began to twitch.
He clearly remembered that more than ten days ago, Autumn Adler was still recuperating, and it wasn't until three days ago that Marshall taught her the Qi Gathering Technique for opening meridians.
But it's only been three days, and Autumn has already opened four meridians, and without awakening her bloodline, she used the most basic Qi Gathering Technique. It's simply unbelievable.
And what does "just tried, and they opened right up" mean? Isn't this just infuriating?
Could Autumn be an exceptionally talented Martial Arts practitioner? Marshall felt a surge of excitement.
"Ahem, it's nothing. Autumn, can you feel the power of your bloodline?" Marshall coughed a few times and asked.
"The power of my bloodline? I don't know why, but I can't seem to feel it."
Autumn herself seemed puzzled.
Marshall thought for a moment and said, "Autumn, come to my room, and I'll check it for you."
"Okay!" Autumn nodded.
When they arrived in Marshall's room, the two sat on the bed.
"Alright, let's begin."
Marshall smiled, then extended his palm, placing it on Autumn's back, gently injecting True Qi into her spine.
Following that, Marshall's palm moved gently upward from the lower part of Autumn's back to stimulate her bloodline and check the situation.
At this moment, Marshall's expression changed, as he felt a strong resistance in Autumn's spine blocking the flow of his True Qi.
"What's going on?"
Marshall furrowed his brows and increased the input of True Qi.
Just then, a sudden change occurred.
From Autumn's spine, a blinding crimson light suddenly burst forth, followed by a powerful force that surged from her spine towards Marshall.
This force, which Marshall couldn't resist, sent him flying with a bang and crashing into the wall.
In that instant, the red light from Autumn's spine vanished without a trace, as if nothing had ever happened.
"Young Master!"
Autumn was shocked and hurriedly jumped off the bed to support Marshall.
"I'm alright!"
Marshall stood up; aside from his blood and energy being a bit unsettled, there was nothing else wrong.
The power that surged from Autumn's spine was strong but not harmful.
"Young Master, I'm glad you're okay; I was scared to death just now," Autumn said, patting herself down.
Marshall, however, frowned slightly. He was sure that Autumn should have a bloodline, but it was bizarre for it to have the power to send him flying; he had never heard of such a thing.
Seeing Marshall frown, Autumn knew he was worried about her bloodline and said softly, "Young Master, if Autumn can't awaken her bloodline, so be it. Right, Young Master, I'll go make dinner for you and the Lady."
Saying this, Autumn opened the door and walked out.
After Autumn left, Marshall pondered for a while but couldn't understand why, so he decided to set it aside for now and look into the ancient texts to see if there were any similar records later.
After dinner, Marshall returned to his room and re-entered the Supreme Divine Temple.
There's a bit more than two days left before the clan meeting, and Marshall plans to use a Spiritual Essence Pill to make the final sprint.
The Spiritual Essence Pill is a Level 3 pill, and for ordinary people, it's impossible to completely refine it in just over two days. Every pill has impurities and toxins that require time to refine slowly, but for Marshall, this is not a problem.
Swallowing the Spiritual Essence Pill, Marshall began to operate the Battle Dragon True Technique.
From his spine came a powerful attraction, which absorbed the pill's medicinal power, then released pure energy.
In his Dantian, the Qi Vortex spun rapidly, absorbing this energy.
Marshall's cultivation level was rapidly rising.
More than two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The Morgan Family's clan meeting finally arrived.
"Yara, Great Elder, I'm going to shock you."
Marshall opened his eyes from cultivation, sensing the surging True Qi within him, a cold smile on his lips.
Exiting the Supreme Divine Temple, he came to the courtyard.
"Hmm? Why aren't Mother and Autumn here?"
Looking around, Marshall noticed that Penny Lawson and Autumn Adler were nowhere to be found.
Logically, it couldn't be possible; today is the clan meeting, and Penny and Autumn would definitely be here waiting for him.
"Hurry up, wash those clothes quickly, and clean the toilet as well."
At this moment, a piercing, duck-like voice sounded from next door.
The place where Marshall lived used to be where the servants stayed, so naturally, next door was also where the servants lived and worked.
"You guys have gone too far, making us do laundry is one thing, but asking us to clean the toilet as well? My lady is the Lady of the Family, you're too much, I will report you to the Senate of Elders."
At this moment, a sharp voice rang out.
Boom!
This sharp voice sounded like thunder in Marshall's ears, instantly turning his eyes red with rage, his anger shooting straight to his head.
Because this voice was Autumn's, and the lady she mentioned was naturally Marshall's mother, Penny Lawson.
These servants actually made Penny and Autumn do laundry and even wanted them to clean the toilet? Unforgivable!
Marshall's figure moved, rushing towards next door.
At this moment, in the courtyard next to Marshall's, Penny Lawson and Autumn Adler were doing laundry.
A large pile of clothes was stacked in front of them, all the clothes of the servants of the Morgan Family.
In front of them stood a fat middle-aged man with two moustaches, and behind him were two strong men with robust builds.
This fat man was the steward of the Great Elder, named Trey Dunn.
At this moment, Trey Dunn sneered repeatedly, staring at Autumn Adler and Penny Lawson, saying, "Oh, you still wish to report me to the Senate of Elders, utterly delusional, what Lady of the Family, nonsense. After today, Miss Yara Morgan will assume the position of Family Head, and by then, you'll be nothing."
"I'm telling you, from now on you'll be doing these chores every day, so you'd better start practicing now."
"You.. you wish! My Young Master Lucius won't let you succeed." Autumn Adler's face flushed with anger, pointing at Trey Dunn and shouting.
"Marshall Morgan, that loser, hahaha, you actually think Marshall Morgan can save you, stop dreaming. If we hadn't found him today, cleaning the toilets would have been his job."
Trey Dunn let out an unpleasant shriek of laughter, his small eyes emitting a lecherous light, scanning Autumn Adler up and down, "Didn't expect, in such a short time, this girl would become so charming. Here's the deal, come to the room and serve Master Dunn well. Make me happy, and I might consider not having you clean the toilets."
"Dream on!" Autumn Adler's face turned pale, instinctively stepping back two steps.
Trey Dunn's face turned cold, "You think I won't? I'll do as I please, take this girl down to my room."
"Yes!"
The two strong men behind Trey Dunn responded.
"No, no, I beg you, Steward Dunn, spare Autumn Adler, I'll do any work you want, just please spare Autumn Adler."
Penny Lawson protected Autumn Adler in front of her, looking at Trey Dunn with pleading eyes.
"Move!" The two strong men barked coldly. One of them swung his palm out, about to slap Penny Lawson.
At this moment...
Boom!
The courtyard door suddenly burst open, fragments of wood flying around.
The sudden occurrence halted the two hulks, and everyone's gaze swiftly turned to the door.
A young figure strode in.
"Marshall Morgan, is that you? Just in time, go clean the toilets now."
Seeing it was Marshall Morgan, Trey Dunn sighed with relief, a cold sneer on his face.
This young man was, of course, Marshall Morgan.
Marshall Morgan didn't even glance at Trey Dunn, walking directly to Penny Lawson's side, "Mother, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, Marshall, why are you here? We can handle this, you should leave quickly." Penny Lawson said anxiously.
Marshall Morgan shook his head, "Mother, I came too late. From now on, I'll never let you suffer such indignation again."
"Marshall Morgan, you waste, I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me?"
From behind, Trey Dunn's voice shouted.
Marshall Morgan slowly turned, staring at Trey Dunn with an incredibly icy gaze, like the eyes of a demon from Hell, the situation igniting a strong and intense fury in him, ready to explode at any moment.
The fierce anger turned into an icy killing intent. An icy cold voice emerged from Marshall Morgan's mouth, "Trey Dunn, you deserve to die!"
The cold gaze made Trey Dunn's heart tremble, but remembering that Marshall was just a waste, his courage swelled, revealing a hideous expression and shouted, "Marshall Morgan, you dare threaten me, you're courting death, break his limbs."
"Yes!" The two hulks also showed hideous expressions and moved to seize Marshall Morgan's arms.
These two hulks were at the Peak of Mid-stage Meridian Passage.
"Marshall!" Penny Lawson gasped in terror.
Trey Dunn sneered relentlessly.
Crack! Crack!
The sound of bones breaking echoed next, followed by two shrill screams, freezing Trey Dunn's sneer, leaving Penny Lawson startled.
Because the screams came from the two hulks.
Marshall Morgan merely grasped the wrists of the two hulks, and their wrist bones were crushed to pieces.
"Ah! Ah! My hands." The two hulks screamed incessantly.
Boom! Boom!
Marshall Morgan's True Qi burst forth, surging into the two hulks, making them grunt and fly far away, landing heavily on the ground, completely lifeless.
They had been crushed internally by Marshall Morgan.
At this moment, Trey Dunn finally reacted, screaming, "Marshall Morgan, how dare you! They're people of the Great Elder, you dare kill them, you're courting death."
"The one who'll die is you."
Marshall Morgan let out a cold snort, stepping out with a punch aimed at Trey Dunn.
The punch launched, powerful True Qi surged forth, engulfing Trey Dunn completely.
The True Qi was too strong. Trey Dunn felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, unable to exert any of his Warrior First Realm strength, screaming hysterically, "No."
Bang!
Before he could finish, Marshall Morgan's fist landed on his stomach.
Trey Dunn let out a miserable cry, his corpulent body flying out like a dead pig, hitting the ground heavily, raising a cloud of dust.
"Ahhh, Marshall Morgan, you've crippled my cultivation, Miss Yara Morgan and the Great Elder won't spare you." Trey Dunn let out a desperate scream.
"Is that so?"
Marshall Morgan walked up to Trey Dunn, stomping hard on Trey Dunn's leg.
Crack!
Trey Dunn's leg bone was directly broken.
Trey Dunn let out pig-like screams, tears and snot streaming down his face.
Marshall Morgan's gaze cold as ice, looked at Trey Dunn, saying, "You wanted to break my limbs, so now, I'll break yours."
With these words, another foot stomped on Trey Dunn's other leg, breaking his bone.
"Ah, ah, my legs, Marshall Morgan, no, Young Master Lucius, I beg you, spare me, it's all the Great Elder and Curtis Morgan's orders, I didn't dare disobey them."
Trey Dunn let out a miserable wail.
"The Great Elder and Curtis Morgan?"
Marshall Morgan's gaze was infinitely cold, then, with two consecutive kicks, he directly crippled Trey Dunn's two arms, then turned to walk toward Penny Lawson and Autumn Adler.
"Marshall, your cultivation?"
At this moment, Penny Lawson looked at Marshall Morgan with incomparable excitement, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Mother, in this period, I had a fortuitous encounter, I'll tell you in detail later, now let's go to the martial arts arena."
Marshall Morgan said.
Penny Lawson's face changed, "Marshall, to the martial arts arena? The Great Elder and Yara are all there, don't act rashly."
Although Marshall Morgan had vastly improved his cultivation recently, could he be a match for Yara?
Yara not only awakened a Level 5 Bloodline but also had an alliance with the Thorne Family of the Mystic Origin Sword Sect. It was rumored that during this time, the Thorne Family sent many precious pills, allowing Yara to focus on her closed-door cultivation.
She naturally worried about Marshall.
Marshall Morgan smiled slightly, showing a confident smile, and said, "Mother, rest assured, no one will take the position of Morgan Family head, neither Yara nor anyone else; it belongs to Father. Whoever wants to claim it, I'll cut them down!"
"Madam, rest assured, Young Master will surely succeed."
Autumn Adler also spoke up.
Then, the three of them headed towards the Morgan Family martial arts arena.
