However, Lin Hai then showed a grave expression: "But most importantly, I need to immediately enhance my strength, or else we'll have no foothold in Huadu."

Su Zhentian nodded, overwhelmed at the thought that there was an expert capable of injuring someone as formidable as Lin Hai.

"The opponent is very strong, but not invincible. Although my injuries are severe, the opponent must have been injured too. I estimate they won't make any major moves for a while."

Lin Hai was quite confident about this; his Gang Qi had infiltrated the opponent's body to leave a hidden trouble. The Sky Demon Phoenix might have annihilated most of the Gang Qi, but there was still some residue hidden within.

During this period, the Sky Demon Phoenix would also need to heal and purge all the foreign Gang Qi from its body.

"What do you plan to do next?" Su Zhentian asked.

"I plan to quietly recuperate and reflect for a few days. There are many insights to be had after the great battle, and perhaps I could use them to break through some of my power," Lin Hai said with a steady gaze.

Su Zhentian nodded: "Whatever you need, just say the word. Whether it's high-grade potions or anything else, the Su Family will pull out all the stops to support you."

"I won't use any medicinal potions available on the market. No matter how good those potions are, they will invariably have side effects, although the high-grade ones have nearly negligible ones."

"I don't want the side effects from taking potions to become a hindrance to reaching the path of the Supreme in the future," Lin Hai shook his head.

Having said what needed to be said, Lin Hai prepared to get some proper rest for a few days; to heal his injuries, and also because he had a vague sense that he had gained some insights after his encounter with the Sky Demon Phoenix.

"I would like to join forces with Su Yi, the reclusive expert of the Su Family, against this powerful foe," Lin Hai once again brought up this idea; Su Yi was indeed the strongest warrior of the Su Family.

"No problem, I will personally ask Uncle One," Su Zhentian nodded.

"Alright then, I will go and reflect now."

As he was about to leave, something seemed to occur to Su Zhentian, and he turned back to say: "By the way, Lin, do you plan on marrying my daughter?"

Lin Hai nearly stumbled, almost aggravating his injuries—sh*t, they were just having such serious discussions, why did such a tough question suddenly come up?

Moreover, Father-in-law Su seemed to know about his affair with Wanjing.

"Cough cough, Uncle Su, I want to resolve our current troubles first, and talk about these things when things are truly stable. There will be plenty of time in the future."

"Ah, forget it, I won't force you. Just treat Wanjing well, and remember when it's time to... bring a few more little brothers' work uniforms," Su Zhentian sighed and shook his head.

Lin Hai nearly spat blood, did he have to be so blunt?!

"Well, we are very pure," Lin Hai said shyly, squirming.

"Go, recover well," Su Zhentian waved his hand.

"Oh, goodbye Uncle Su," Lin Hai, relieved, prepared to make a quick escape.

"Hold on!" Su Zhentian suddenly spoke again.

Lin Hai's stepping foot hung in the air, not daring to come down, as he painfully turned back: "Uncle Su, is there anything else?"

"Still calling me Uncle Su?!"

"Uh... Father-in-law!"

"Hmph, that's more like it, off you go."

"Oh, goodbye Father-in-law."

Lin Hai finally left, carefully closing the door behind him before he relaxed.

Outside, Wanjing stood, like an Immortal that had descended to the mortal world.

It had to be said, after not seeing her for many days, Beauty Su with her red lips and white teeth, was even more enchanting.

"Wanjing, I've missed you so much." Lin Hai said with a smile.

"I've missed you too, and I've been very worried about you." Su Wanjing spoke tenderly, gently stroking Lin Hai's resolute cheek with her hand.

"It's okay, I'm very well now. I could kill a cow with my bare hands."

"Was that opponent very strong?"

"Yes, very strong, but it's okay. I'll make him pay, let him show off and soar for now. Once I've fully recuperated, I'll turn him to ash in an instant."

Lin Hai said this purely because he didn't want Su Wanjing to worry.

"You should go and contemplate. I won't disturb you during this time, so you won't get distracted." Su Wanjing said.

"Uh, actually I was thinking... I wanted to take you to show off, take you to smack." Lin Hai chuckled.

After a battle, it's a time when one's vitality is particularly vigorous.

"No, you've just recovered from your injuries, you need quiet recuperation, and you need to contemplate. Be good, Lin Hai."

"Okay, alright, sigh."

Lin Hai sighed, but his heart was also full of joy. Su Wanjing was an intelligent girl who always considered things from his perspective.

To have a girl like her was truly his fortune.

Returning to his own door, Lin Hai found that Liu Qianhui seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time.

Seeing Lin Hai return, Liu Qianhui knelt to the ground with a "thud".

"Qianhui, what are you doing?" Lin Hai was startled.

"Lin Hai, I only ask you for one thing. When your strength is enough to defeat that person, help me take revenge. As long as you promise, I'm willing to do anything, willing to pay any price."

Tears covered Liu Qianhui's face, yet she bit her lip with resolution.

Lin Hai quickly helped her up, gently wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes, and sighed: "Don't worry, once I am capable, I will personally kill him and avenge your father!"

"There, no more crying, be good, Qianhui. After all, you're my woman now, and your father is my father-in-law. Even if you didn't ask, I would take revenge for him!"

Lin Hai clenched his fists, his heart filled with towering hatred. Damn RX organization, every time it appeared in his life, it always brought heartbreaking events.

"My strength is still not enough! I must keep getting stronger, striving to reach the Legendary level as soon as possible, until I can uproot the RX organization completely, killing them all!"

For the first time, Lin Hai realized that he wasn't strong enough. Even stepping into the realm of the Supreme was nothing; he still lacked the strength to protect the people around him, still unable to escape the control of fate.

He wanted to become stronger, keep getting stronger, until one day he could truly protect the people around him, break free from the shackles of destiny, and turn all enemies into bones under his feet!

After comforting Liu Qianhui, Lin Hai finally had peace and quiet to contemplate the experience from the battle.

He closed his eyes, constantly recalling every detail of the battle in his mind, simulating the fight, hoping to find a way to counter the opponent's techniques.

There wasn't much time to quickly become a First-class Supreme expert, the chance was almost slim.

But there were many ways to make up for the lack of strength, such as targeting the opponent's techniques for restraint!

"Eh? The Eight Stele Hand's techniques..."

"The First Move seems to be perfectly combined with the Second Move, turning into a new technique..."

As Lin Hai recalled the battle, he suddenly discovered this unusual aspect.

"The Third Move can be combined with the Fourth Move..."

"The Fifth Move can be combined with the Sixth Move..."
