Li Qing and the others were keeping watch over the Transmission Hall, so Su Xin felt fairly at ease. He only had to stop by a few times each day to make his presence felt and let the gang members know who had given them the chance to learn martial arts. That was enough.
For the rest of his time, Su Xin either cultivated at the Yongle District headquarters or sparred with Li Huai.
Li Huai had never lacked talent. After witnessing Su Xin's battle with Li Zhonghe, he had gained some insight, and the previous night he had broken through his thirty-sixth acupoint, advancing to the Post-Natal Initial Realm.
