Chapter 18 Lottery, Wind God Kick!

Within three days, after Emperor Qing spread the news, the Qing Temple incident caused a sensation in Kyoto. Almost half of the people in Kyoto knew about the news.

The ruler of Qing, Emperor Qing, met a fortune teller named Li An in the Qing Temple, who told him about his fortune and answered his questions. The result of this question-and-answer session made Emperor Qing very satisfied, because Li An's predictions and answers were very accurate, which fully lived up to his reputation of "iron-mouthed and straight-forward".

The gold for this hexagram was actually three thousand taels of gold! What does this mean? This is undoubtedly a huge sum of money, which makes people amazed.

Although there were only Li An and Emperor Qing in the Qing Temple at that time, and everyone else was cleared out, with only Gong Dian guarding outside, the news that spread was still highly credible. Didn't you see that Emperor Qing personally praised Li An and didn't deny it?
Later, some people confirmed the authenticity of the news with Gong Dian, and after receiving a positive response, they began to get restless. This included His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had a good personal relationship with Gong Dian. As the news spread in Kyoto, it really caused quite a stir.

Before, Emperor Qing quietly left the palace and went to the Qing Temple to worship incognito, and no one knew about it. It was not until the news came out that everyone knew about it. Some people thought about it and wrote to the emperor, saying that Your Majesty should not be so reckless, and going out incognito may endanger your own safety, and you should put your own safety first. Then they turned around and impeached Gong Dian for not stopping His Majesty from leaving the palace incognito, accusing him of not taking His Majesty's safety into consideration, which was a manifestation of dereliction of duty and disloyalty.

It is unknown who instructed this action. You know, not long ago, Gong Dian had a very good personal relationship with the prince, and everyone knew it.

However, Emperor Qing did not listen to the impeachment of his ministers and punish Gong Dian. Instead, he praised and comforted Gong Dian.

It was a good thing that Gong Dian did not stop him, otherwise how could he have met such an extraordinary person?

As soon as this was said, the incident began to ferment. In the eyes of everyone, no matter how you look at it, this matter is very complicated! For a moment, everyone was very curious about this strange man named Li An.

Many forces began to mobilize people to investigate Li An's past experiences. They looked for where he lived now. They didn't know until they found out that His Majesty had actually rewarded him with a courtyard to live in Kyoto.

Some people were eager to find Li An to tell their fortunes. At the same time, a small number of people with deep scheming also became interested in the conversation between Li An and Emperor Qing. They were very curious about what Li An said to Emperor Qing!
And three days ago, Li An ended the lottery process in the hospital.

Wind God Leg!
That’s right, he drew the unique martial art in the Fengyun world—the Wind God Leg.

This Wind God Kick contains the artistic conception of "wind has no form" and is an extremely fast and sharp kick. It is one of the three unique skills of Xiongba, and is as famous as Paiyun Palm and Tianshuang Fist. Although its power is slightly average compared to Paiyun Palm and Tianshuang Fist, the speed of the Wind God Kick is the best in the world. In that world, Nie Feng won the title of "God of Wind" with the Wind God Kick.

Furthermore, even if the power of this Wind God Kick is described as average, it depends on who it is compared with. In this world, what kind of sparks will it produce when it collides with nuclear radiation energy?

Li An eagerly began to practice the Wind God Leg. During these three days, he forgot to eat and sleep in his own courtyard and finally reached the threshold of the Wind God Leg.

Wind God Leg LV0: 0/5
This martial arts training is not like the internal force training, which requires running Qi in the body and facing the various meridians of the flesh, so you need to be careful. Although there are special meridians, it is not as complicated as practicing true Qi! Therefore, the wealth value consumed for training is only half of that for practicing internal force, although the cost will be very painful in the later stage.

However, Ang Lee did not hesitate and started spending money like crazy!
[Ding! Consume five taels of silver to upgrade the Wind God Leg from LV0 to LV1! ]

Wind God Leg LV1: 0/10
[Ding! Consume ten taels of silver to upgrade the Wind God Leg LV1 to LV2! ]

Wind God Leg LV2: 0/50
[Ding! Consume fifty taels of silver to upgrade the Wind God Leg LV2 to LV3! ]

Wind God Leg LV3: 0/100
【叮！消耗百两白银风神腿LV3提升至LV4！】风神腿LV4：0/500
······
He was not willing to give up until the Wind God Leg reached LV8:0/50000! Li An's wealth value was only taels of silver.

Li An activated his Qinggong, and suddenly the figures in the yard flashed rapidly, as if multiple Li An appeared at the same time, dazzling everyone! Every jump brought a gust of wind, like a fallen leaf in a strong wind, quickly rolling up a frenzy. At the moment he used the Wind God Leg, his legs kicked out alternately as fast as lightning, and each kick brought powerful force and extreme speed, turning into a series of afterimages.

The air around him suddenly became turbulent as his legs swept past, like a raging wind, and dust and fallen leaves were instantly swept up into the sky. His figure flickered in the wind, like a ghost, floating and uncertain, making people dazzled.

Every time his leg swept past, there was a sharp explosion, as if the air was torn apart by his leg. This terrifying power and speed made people feel palpitations, as if they were in a storm and could be torn to pieces at any time.

Li An was very excited. This was the God of the Wind! His eyes were shining with a sharp light, and the martial arts experience brought by the addition of points gradually became integrated. His figure kept changing positions in the strong wind, making it unpredictable. This feeling was so cool, even more exciting than racing!

After a while, Li An stopped practicing. He looked at the attributes of strength and speed, which had improved to a certain extent. He thought to himself that although his realm had not changed, the Wind God Leg technique had greatly improved his overall performance. The money was worth it! It seemed that he had to focus on making money in the future. He would open the shop tomorrow!

That night, Ang Lee slept particularly soundly.

The next morning, Li An woke up, took care of his personal hygiene and had breakfast, then went to the workshop, where he asked a craftsman to carefully make a plaque with the three characters "Wanshizhai" engraved on it.

He took back the plaque and hung it above the gate of his courtyard. Then, he made some simple renovations to the front hall to make it more suitable for receiving guests. Then, he sat in the hall, practiced his skills, and waited for the guests to come.

"I wonder when Emperor Qing will help me put out the advertisement?"

Li An was somewhat puzzled, but he did not know that his name had already spread among the upper class.

As the sky gradually darkened, no one came. Even Fan Xian did not come after he settled down at the Fan Mansion.

After another night, the sun is shining brightly today.

Three groups of people left the mansion one after another, and their destination was Wanshizhai in the west of the city where Li An was.

After two days of getting along and communicating in the Fan Mansion, Fan Xian gradually became familiar with everyone. He also learned more about his mother from his father, Fan Jian, the Earl of Sinan, and had a deeper understanding of his mother and her life experience. He talked about some of his own ideas and naturally sighed, "If you have a mother, why give birth to a son?" - because his road to wealth has been completely blocked.

The young master of the Fan family, Fan Sizhe, also cheated money from his mother, and planned to lure Fan Xian out of the house tomorrow under the pretext of inviting him to a banquet, and then find someone to teach Fan Xian a lesson.

When Fan Xian heard that Fan Sizhe was going to treat him, he was quite happy because this way he could go out and have a good look around the capital, so he agreed.
