Commanding Wind and Cloud

The note pages were scattered across the West Mountain and the Flame Demon wasn’t even the strongest demon. The way Blake told Qian Jin to retrieve those pages was like telling Qian Jin to go to the chicken nest and get some eggs.

"What expression is that?" Enlak shook his head as he continued. "Young people nowadays, always backing away then encountering some little troubles..."

Now, Qian Jin was sure that this little trouble wasn’t small at all! Enlak had emphasized that it was small twice!

"For the mine..." Qian Jin sighed and asked, "Tell me, what ’small’ mission is it?"

"Really small. I just like the way Eulalia gets surprised and opens her eyes big and wide." Enlak said with his arms crossed. "All you have to do is to go to that crazy woman and tell her that you love her."

"What!!" Qian Jin felt like his legs were about to give out. He almost sat directly on the ground. He looked at Enlak and said, "This is really a ’small’ mission..."

Tell Eulalia that he loved her? Qian Jin shook his head repeatedly. He would rather charge into the Eternal Demon Palace where the Demon King lived and duel the current Demon King than tell Eulalia that he loved her.

The two scenarios had the same outcome, death. If the outcomes were the same, why not die without pain. It would be hard to die quickly in Eulalia’s hands. He would likely experience the feeling of wanting to die but can’t die.

"Of course, it’s a small matter." Enlak got close to Qian Jin and looked him in the eyes. "When I saw you in battle, you never backed off. You won’t back off from this, right? It is an Energy Core Mine after all."

Qian Jin looked at Enlak as if he wanted to force the answer out of this man’s mouth by beating him up, but he was too weak. He could only think about it.

An Energy Core Mine! A complete mine! Although he couldn’t take it to the Zence Empire, he was able to use the Energy Cores in the Endless World. It was still a great help! Qian Jin had to swallow his drool just thinking about it.

Damn! It was just too intriguing.

"Only shout out ‘I love you’, right? Damn, I will do it for the mine!" He thought.

"Ok, I will do it." Qian Jin turned around and walked out. The Warrior Technique Sequence was just too seductive. If he was able to place several Warrior Fighting Sequences in his Warrior Heart, his battle style would become even more unexpected and smooth.

On the quiet street, Eulalia’s shop door was wide open. Eulalia who was standing in front of a bunch of test tubes was busy as ever as she carefully experimented with various ingredients.

When Qian Jin saw her most of his courage disappeared. When he looked back at Enlak’s bad smile, Eulalia’s voice sounded.

"This early today?" Without looking up, she asked. "There is some potion on the table. Take off your clothes and jump into the tub with the potion for an hour."

The last bit of Qian Jin’s confidence disappeared with Eulalia’s voice.

"A complete Energy Core Mine..."

Enlak’s intriguing offer sounded again in his mind like a devil trying to light up the flame of confidence.

Energy Core Mine! Complete Warrior Technique Sequence! Real Warrior Heart Awareness!

Qian Jin took a deep breath and shouted at Eulalia, "I love you!"

I love you... I love you... I love you... I love you...

Qian Jin’s loud voice resonated in the quiet village. Adams who just walked out his shop looked Qian Jin with a dumbfounded expression. He then gave Qian Jin a thumbs up to admire Qian Jin’s courage.

After he shouted it out, Qian Jin felt heroic as ever! The worse was to die! That was it!

Enlak nodded in appreciation. It was key to respect a good master, but a warrior couldn’t fear a good master! A good master was family! Why be scared of a family? A warrior shouldn’t be afraid of anything!

Only forward! Never retreat! That wasn’t enough! A warrior needed its own unique presence and temperament! To get to that, he or she needed to clear all his or her fears!

"Love me?" Eulalia said without looking up. "Ok, now go and take your potion."

Both Enlak’s and Adams’ eyes almost popped out of their faces. Mystic Pharmacists were really a bunch of madmen and madwomen. "Is this Eulalia really a woman? Is this the appropriate reaction after hearing a confession?"

Qian Jin lightly shook his head as he saw the expression of two of his masters. "Looks like the two of them don’t know Eulalia well enough, she is a not a regular woman." He thought.

As he bathed in the tube, the painful sensation bombarded his brain. Qian Jin quietly endured the pain that was equivalent to numerous knife cuts as he used his Warrior Power to penetrate his Warrior Heart to perform the Warrior Technique Sequence construction for Wind and Cloud Golden Body.

After numerous battles, Qian Jin understood that he had to be prepared to be beaten before beating others. To not be hit during a battle, it would be like a miracle! Sometimes, a battle was more like a competition on who can take the most beatings and who can recover the fastest.

Wind and Cloud Golden Body had an unparalleled advantage in this field. After completing the Warrior Technique Sequence for this, he would be more prepared for sneak attacks.

After enduring the painful bath, it was time for him to study how to make Mystic Potions. After that, he walked back into Blake’s Blacksmith Shop with his fatigued body and looked at Blake who was smoking at the corner. By now he realized how Blake was able to perform that god-like strike.

Eighteen Blade Elevating Strikes had their own special movement trajectories and force utilization techniques. Before, Qian Jin didn’t treat it was a fighting technique since it was quite far from it. Now, he felt like it would be made into Warrior Technique Sequences in his Warrior Heart.

However, it wasn’t as simple as using Warrior Power to arrange it. It seemed like physical power also need to be incorporated into it, but how?

Qian Jin could tell that Blake had no intention of instructing him. He was on his own this time.

"The best way is always to learn through action and not to stay there and think." Qian Jin took a deep breath as he walked to the forge. He picked up the forging hammer and smashed onto the piece of iron.

Tink! It was still the sound of metal colliding, there were still a ton of sparks, but a smile appeared on Blake’s face.

Improvement! Qian Jin’s hand that was holding the hammer tightened. Although the difference in the sound couldn’t be detected by a Forge Grandmaster, he was able to catch it. When his Warrior Power was arranging the patterns, his force floated into his Warrior Heart through the Warrior Energy as he struck down on the metal and assisted in the Warrior Technique Sequence construction process.

"Why did that happen?" Qian Jin couldn’t wrap his mind around it. Whatever Blake taught him was hard to understand. Although Mystic Potions were mysterious, this old blacksmith was even more mysterious. Forge Breathing Technique, Eighteen Blade Elevating Strikes, both were unbelievable.

"Whatever." Qian Jin dropped his questions. It was more important to learn it first. Enemies won’t be scared of your when your theoretical knowledge was amazing. The enemies would only respect you when your actual power is strong.

Time passed second by second. The sixteen-hour cap was reached; Qian Jin pushed away the sand that was above him and crawled out. Duren Burg was also pulling Fanta Kunge out of the sand as well.

The Ancient Desert Sea was cold at night. Although Fanta Kunge was improving at an insane speed, he wasn’t able to resist the chilliness of the sand. That chilliness was able to freeze the sand that contained no moisture.

Lucifer Lucy crossed her arms in front of her chest as she frowned. A surprising light flashed through her beautiful single eye as she looked at Fanta Kunge who was so cold that his lips turned purple. "This is how you guys train?" She asked.

Durg Burg smiled as he looked at her. "What do you think? Quite creative, don’t you say?"

Lucifer Lucy nodded subconsciously, but her haughty princess voice said, "Train? More like seeking your own death."

"If we don’t try hard and ‘seek our own death’, should we seek our own death on the battlefield and become credits for you demons?" Duren Burg shook his head as the wind blew away the sand in his hair. "I don’t want to be someone who returns to the stars at a young age."

Yuan Kylie frowned. "Did demons not die enough as well in the war?" She thought. The royal Lucifer Demons who died in the war were enough to cover a whole mountain.

Those number didn’t even count the royal demons who didn’t die on the battlefield instantly but die back home due to the severe injuries.

"One day... one day..." Yuan Kylie squeezed her pretty fist and said, "One day, I will eliminate all wars, I will..."

"Rule over Humans, Demons, and Barbarians. I will become the only Empress!"

Cech Flet who was walking down the hill shook his head as he heard Yuan Kylie’s proud voice. This line was her catchphrase, it didn’t change at all since forever.

"That’s right!"

Yuan Kylie flips her hair continued; her fluttering hair and impressive temperament gave her beautiful figure a bit more highlight.

"Rule over Humans, Demons, and Barbarians?" Qian Jin thought. "How many warriors would die from this? How many warriors would die from all sides? Although Barbarians never had a bloodline warrior who achieved Ultimate Awakening, it didn’t mean that they were weak. They were the race that was born to battle after all.

Didn’t matter whether it was humans or demons, there were a large number of civilians who couldn’t become fighters and needed to maintain the economy and society structure in many ways.
