I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

Hidden Dragon Dojo, in the Heart-Nourishing Room, Xue Jing knelt in a very unobtrusive corner, bowing his head ever so slightly, not letting out a hint of breath from his body.

This corner was the 'most suitable for concealing' place he subconsciously chose after looking around upon entering.

After activating [Concealment], he instinctively learned this technique.

In a space, which spot had the dimmest light, which spot was most likely to be ignored, and which spot wouldn't naturally draw the attention of people's vision—he understood all this at a glance.

He seemed to have turned into a sculpture that blended perfectly with the room without the slightest sense of incongruity.

Just like the cardboard boxes stored in a warehouse, the mops and plastic buckets placed in the corners of restrooms, or the books on bookshelves, there was a natural sense of 'he originally belonged to this place.'

Therefore, when Li Qi opened the door to the Heart-Nourishing Room and entered in his wheelchair, he didn't notice at all that a disciple of his own was squatting in a corner of the room.

Chen Fuguang, who followed Li Qi inside, naturally didn't notice either.

The two of them started chatting in front of Xue Jing.

"...If we can't find it, there will be serious trouble. The government is already anxious. Chief Councillor Chi Liangyun is retiring next year and only wants a smooth transition. During his tenure, Qingcheng has been quite peaceful under his control. There were no significant achievements, but also no faults, yet now, in the end..."

Chen Fuguang reported something to Li Qi.

Li Qi's dim and turbid eyes narrowed slightly, "I do know some news; Qingcheng should now be a chess piece in the conflict between the two factions above. Not just Qingcheng, but cities in the Outer Ring of the Fifth Urban Circle have also begun to have incidents, more or less."

"Golden Wind Dojo has been completely dissolved. Most of the direct disciples have been killed by Little Jing, leaving only that old guy Jiao Hongyuan and his senior disciple Yan Xiangweng, and that Li Chengxuan who is now hiding somewhere unknown..."

"It's strange that a citywide carpet search like this turned up nothing..."

Chen Fuguang thought for a moment and said, "Although it was a citywide search, there are still some places..."

He hadn't finished speaking when Li Qi suddenly raised his hand to interrupt him and turned his head sharply towards the corner, his turbid old eyes flashing with sharpness:

"Who's there!?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he clearly saw the person in hiding and was momentarily taken aback:

"Little Jing?"

Xue Jing glanced at the panel that prompted [Concealment Experience Points +366] and stood up, patting the dust off his knees.

"Master, Senior Brother Chen."

He greeted with a wave of his hand.

"Little Junior Brother, what are you hiding there for?" Chen Fuguang scratched his head, puzzled.

"...Speaking of which, you hid really well. Master and I have been here for quite a while without noticing."

Xue Jing laughed and said, "I just comprehended a bit on the method of concealing one's breath and thought I'd try it out—I didn't expect not even Master to detect me."

Li Qi glared at him, "No killing intent, no hostility, and not even moving; you were like a ghost. I'm an old man, not an immortal. How was I to see you?"

Xue Jing complimented, "That's not true, in my eyes, you are indeed an old immortal."

Hearing this, Chen Fuguang winked at Xue Jing and gave him a thumbs-up, expressing admiration.

Li Qi raised his eyebrows and modestly scratched his smooth bald patch, sighing, "I've always said people can't be too honest, you child, should refrain from such blunt truths in the future."

Xue Jing echoed his sigh, "You are right, Master."

After some nonsensical chatter, Chen Fuguang said to Xue Jing, "By the way, Little Junior Brother, you've come at the right time."

"The dojo has just received a commission specifically asking for you—take a look and see if you want to go."

Xue Jing asked with curiosity, "A named commission?"

Since he became famous in the Maple City elimination match, Hidden Dragon Dojo had received many commissions specifically asking for him, but most of these commissions... had impure motives.

And the rewards weren't much either, so Xue Jing asked the dojo to refuse them all on his behalf.

Now Chen Fuguang mentioned there was a commission inquiring about his interest—this must be something special.

"Didn't you take a sparring partner commission last time? This client is the same as before, and the commission fee is quite substantial..."

Chen Fuguang explained.

"Last time..." Xue Jing thought for a moment before recalling what had happened before.

Previously, Pei Youguang's elder brother Pei Tiancheng had used a sparring partner commission to call him to their house, where he encountered the Mountain Demon of White Crow Clan.

So this meant the Pei brothers had sent him this commission again?

Xue Jing thought for a moment, took out his phone directly from his pocket, opened the contact list, searched for Pei Youguang's name, and made a call.

As if Pei Youguang had been holding his phone, waiting for the call, it was picked up immediately after just one ringtone.

"Hello, Youguang."

Xue Jing started.

"Ah, yes, Jing, it's me."

There was a hint of nervousness in Pei Youguang's voice from the receiver.

Xue Jing chuckled, "What's with the panic? Just speak normally."

"I've received a commission from your end here at the dojo—it seems to be from you. What's the matter, couldn't you just call directly without going around the bush?"

He asked curiously.

"Jing, it's not me, it's my father who wants to see you," Pei Youguang said in a low voice.

"He says he has something important and needs your help, wants to meet you, but it's not good to just come over or ask you to visit, so he thought of using the form of a commission like last time..."

Xue Jing put down the phone, turned to Chen Fuguang, and asked, "Senior Brother Chen, how much is the commission fee they're offering?"
