Liu Chan silently saw Yang Fei out of the alley, the atmosphere somewhat oppressive.

Yang Fei felt slightly uneasy and took the initiative to start a conversation.

"Chan'er, what's wrong?"

Liu Chan lifted her head.

Her dark and shiny eyes, under her neat bangs, were moist with tears.

Yang Fei was taken aback.

"Chan'er, why are you crying? Are you unhappy?"

Liu Chan stood still, her voice choked up.

"No, Big Brother Yang, I am happy for you."

"I always knew, you weren't an ordinary person, watching your career succeed, I..."

Her voice broke, unable to continue.

Yang Fei smiled, reached out, and gently stroked Liu Chan's hair.

"I thought someone had bullied you. No matter how impressive your Big Brother Yang is, I am still your Big Brother Yang."

"Besides, does earning a bit of money mean I'm not an ordinary person anymore?"

"By that logic, wouldn't the world's richest man be on the same level as immortals and Buddha?"

Yang Chan felt his large palm stroking her head.

For some reason, her heart pounded wildly, and her cheeks flushed with heat.

Yang Fei said softly, "In this world, the only thing that can classify people is their souls."

"Only the souls that are ugly and vulgar are lower class, while the noble and beautiful souls are higher class."

"Everything else, whether it's overwhelming power or wealth that rivals countries, cannot divide people into ranks."

He withdrew his hand, his eyes gazing at the dim starlight above the city.

Yang Fei seemed to see again those figures who went gallantly to their deaths, bravely sacrificing themselves.

His voice grew heavier.

"When a person's life ends, what accompanies you into another world is only your soul."

"A clean and kind soul will make you a true higher class person, and that, no amount of wealth or power can change."

Liu Chan smiled, her eyes sparkling like the stars.

"I understand now, thank you for your teachings, Big Brother Yang."

Yang Fei gave a wry smile, "I'm just talking nonsense; just listen and forget it."

"Don't blame your parents, they were just deformed by the weight of life."

Liu Chan nodded again.

"Alright, you can stop here. If we go any further, I'll have to walk you back again."

After saying this, Yang Fei waved to Liu Chan and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute, Big Brother Yang, I have something for you."

Liu Chan stopped Yang Fei.

Under the starlight, her oval face was incredibly delicate and lovely.

Yang Fei was curious, "What is it?"

Liu Chan urged Yang Fei, "Close your eyes first."

Yang Fei complied and closed his eyes.

Suddenly, he felt something soft touch his left cheek.

A girl's fragrance, mixed with the pleasant scent of soap.

It hit him, seeping into his nostrils, intoxicating.

Yang Fei's eyes shot open.

He saw Liu Chan, like a startled Little Deer, dash into the alley.

From a distance, the girl's clear, shy voice came, "Thank you, Big Brother Yang."

Yang Fei subconsciously touched his cheek, savoring the soft touch from before.

After a moment, he blurted out in astonishment.

"Oh my, I can't believe this little lass took advantage of me, what a world!"

The next morning, Yang Fei woke up from the state of Turtle Hibernation.

He felt a vigorous flow of Essence Qi throughout his body, feeling extremely comfortable.

Wearing only a pair of shorts, shirtless, Yang Fei stepped out of his room.

He let out a long howl on the Terrace and began practicing Extreme Tiger.

Ever since the battle with Three Swords, Yang Fei felt he had made a breakthrough in his Extreme Tiger.

```

He had yet to break through to the Fourth Level.

However, he wasn't in a hurry, as cultivating Martial Arts required one to avoid being impulsive and rash.

What Yang Fei hadn't anticipated was that

this breakthrough was not in Extreme Tiger but in Turtle Extreme.

After completing the Three Layers of Extreme Tiger, he began to follow the breathing pattern of Turtle Extreme and circulated his Qi-Blood.

Gradually, he felt the flow of his Qi-Blood become increasingly heavy and sluggish like mercury, with a defensive and rebounding quality.

A thought arose in Yang Fei's heart.

He immediately opened the Turtle Extreme Secret Manual only to discover that he had broken through to the Second Layer of Turtle Extreme, called Turtle Shield.

The essence of the Turtle Shield Technique lay primarily in defense.

When facing an enemy's attack, Qi-Blood would converge on the targeted area.

The flowing Qi-Blood and Essence Qi would form a vortex-like defensive state, creating a temporary defense.

At the same time, Turtle Shield could rebound the enemy's force, reducing damage and striking back at the attacker.

Simply put, this cultivation technique was essentially a method to take hits.

It is said in Martial Arts that one should learn to take a beating before learning to beat others.

To take a hit is an exceedingly sophisticated technique in Martial Arts.

No matter how skilled you are, you cannot avoid being attacked.

If one doesn't learn defense and how to reduce damage,

one cannot be considered a top-tier master.

And the Turtle Shield Technique was far more ingenious than any Golden Bell Shield or Iron Cloth Shirt.

Yang Fei followed the mental method of Turtle Extreme, circulating the Qi-Blood throughout his body, focusing his mind on his head.

Then, he found a piece of brick and smacked it onto his head.

The brick shattered into several pieces, yet Yang Fei's head remained unharmed.

The energy Yang Fei could now unleash with a casual slap weighed hundreds of pounds.

An ordinary person simply couldn't withstand it, a brick would ensure their head broke and bled.

If he were to employ his full strength, it could be lethal.

However, protected by Turtle Shield,

Yang Fei didn't even feel pain in his head, and the brick actually crumbled.

The protective power of the Turtle Shield was indeed incredibly strong.

Yang Fei grew increasingly curious about the origin of this technique.

In the sole copy of Extreme Tiger, it was mentioned that this Cultivation Technique was divided into Nine Extremes.

In other words, the Extreme Tiger and Turtle Extreme that Yang Fei was practicing were just two of these Nine Extremes.

And just by entering the door of these two Extremes, Extreme Tiger and Turtle Extreme,

Yang Fei's Martial Arts could contend with an Energy Transformation Master.

What would happen if he mastered all Nine Extremes to Great Achievement?

He just didn't know where the manuals for the other seven Extremes were currently located.

Remembering how secretive Shou Jing Gong, his tutor, was, Yang Fei felt the clouds of doubt in his heart thicken.

He had the vague sensation that his master had always been hiding many things from him.

After the battle with Three Swords, Shou Jing Gong had vanished without a trace.

Yang Fei suspected Shou Jing Gong was deliberately avoiding him.

That Old Silver Stick was adrift, never maintaining a proper appearance.

If he were intentionally hiding from Yang Fei, even Yang Fei wouldn't be able to find him.

Yang Fei, feeling helpless, thought about it for a while, then continued to cultivate Turtle Extreme.

At noon, Yang Fei went to Su Yinxue's office.

He discussed with Su Yinxue his idea of acquiring Longquan Construction Limited Company.

Su Yinxue was also quite tempted by the bold suggestion Yang Fei had made.

After all, Yannan City was in the midst of major demolitions and reconstructions, with countless projects.

With the credentials and background of Longquan Construction Limited Company,

the Yalan Group could break into the real estate business sector.

However, Su Yinxue had her hesitations.

She had never dealt with real estate before.

Moreover, in recent years, the real estate market had started to decline due to national policy adjustments.

Acquiring Longquan Construction Limited Company came with its risks.
