Chapter 64 Beautiful Yet Deadly
Like a flash of crimson lightning, Scarlet launched her attack. Within seconds, the site was full of sword energy. One by one, William’s glandular hairs were split. Seeing this, he immediately channeled his Body
Protection Qi to avoid getting impaled..
My third eye possesses a powerful dynamic vision that allows me to even clearly see the mosquito’s wings flap five or six hundred times per second. Yet, Scarlet’s sword attack seems to be faster!
The Qi in Scarlet’s body follows a bizarre path that involves the secondary meridians when she wields her sword. Hold on! Has she successfully opened up all her secondary meridians?! How did she do it?
The art of swordsmanship that Scarlet had practiced was the Nine Orders of Swordsmanship. Although the moves aren’t complicated, the force from each of them can kill me easily!
So, is this the strength of a true master? William was shocked. I can’t sustain Scarlet’s blow at all as long as I haven’t opened up the second meridians in my entire body and mastered Qi Ascension.
Let alone me, even a Divine Realm Master may die if they confront Scarlet’s sword attack.
After exercising her Nine Orders of Swordsmanship, Scarlet withdrew her sword, swiveled her head, and asked, “Did you take a clear look at it?”
William nodded. “Yes. Unfortunately, I can’t express it like you do. My cultivation base isn’t as advanced as yours.”
Upon hearing that, Scarlet smiled. “Not even my master could comprehend my swordsmanship, yet you could. You are simply incredible.” This was the second time she praised William:
While signaling her to come over, William said, “Your swordsmanship seems to give out a sense that it’s not fully expressed. Did you not exercise

it with all your strength just now?”
Scarlet nodded. “I was afraid I would hurt you if I used all my strength.”
At once, William rolled his eyes. I thought I was already strong, yet my strength is nothing compared to Scarlet’s.
Scarlet elaborated, “There is another reason. What I’m practicing is the Electric Sword Attack. One can only express this swordsmanship’s due power when they have at least reached the Divine Realm. In fact, only those who reach the Innate Realm can fully express its full power.”
Finally, William got it. “I see. Your cultivation base has yet to reach that level.”
Scarlet nodded. “According to my master, my physique is unlike ordinary. people. My cultivation base will reach its respective level as I age.”
This astounded William. Once again, he sized Scarlet–up. Under his x–ray vision, he realized that her physique was indeed extraordinary. Unbelievable! Not only has all her innate secondary meridians opened up, but she also successfully opened up a part of her tertiary meridians!”
“Are these… Immortal Bones?” William thought of a form of physique that was born for cultivation. One with such a physique can surpass their current martial arts state even if they simply go about their daily routine without special training. Only one every 300 years!
Historically, only one being with Immortal Bones would be born in an empire aged 300 or 400 years. For example, Kian Russell at the end of the Mewugia Kingdom and the beginning of the Yukya Empire; Grosci Ravolbi, who founded the Tribal Summit at the beginning of the Theparean Dynasty; and the Overlord of Chuadan at the end of the Qequisian Kingdom. They were all renowned figures born with Immortal Bones.
Scarlet is still young. The tertiary meridians in her body will naturally open up when she grows a little older. The level of her cultivation base will also increase as she ages.

While in shock, William began to wonder who Scarlet’s master was. Therefore, he inquired, “Scarlet, is your master powerful?”
Unexpectedly, Scarlet shook her head. “My master is no match for me, but she is very strict, so I have been afraid of her ever since I was a child.”
William nodded. “Such a poor child. Just let me know the food you want to eat and the things you want to play these few days.”
In an instant, Scarlet’s eyes lit up. After all, she was young. She yearned for an ordinary young lady’s life as well, so she said, “I’ll call you Willy from now on then, and you shall be in charge of my livelihood.”
William smiled. “Entrusting your livelihood in my hands simply by calling me Willy? That name sure is valuable, huh?”
Afterward, he asked Scarlet to rest while he stayed in the courtyard, continuing to open his secondary meridians. Now that Scarlet had triggered him, he was determined to improve his cultivation base promptly.
In the early morning of the next day, he called Cooper. Before today, they had agreed to pay Robert a visit in hopes that Robert would lead the way and introduce Cooper to Matthew.
At 8.00AM, William and Cooper met in a shopping mall near Cromwell Residence. After purchasing some gifts, they headed straight to Cromwell Residence.
Since Brandon received William’s call in advance, he waited for their arrival at the front gate. As soon as the two got out of the car, Brandon came to them and greeted them with a smile. “William, welcome.”
William smiled and introduced Cooper. “Brandon, this is Mr. Cooper Zuch, the mayor of Gentrel City.”
Brandon nodded and shook hands with Cooper. “I’ve heard a lot about you, Mayor Zuch. Please come in.”

Today was the day of the Cromwell Family’s reunion. Therefore, all of Brandon’s siblings, as well as their wives and children, had gathered at the house.
Apart from Robert, there were also Sheldon and two other men, who were both in their fifties, in the living room. One of them, whom William had seen on TV before, was Matthew, the second–in–command in Kreim.
Immediately after Brandon introduced William and Cooper to his family, Matthew immediately rose to his feet and shook hands with William. “Dr. Barrett, thank you very much for your help. Not only did you cure my father, but you also cured my niece. The Cromwell Family is grateful to you!”
William said modestly, “Deputy Governor Cromwell, call me William. I’m here today for Old Mr. Cromwell’s follow–up treatment.”
Then, he pointed at Cooper. “By the way, this is one of my seniors, Mr. Cooper Zuch, who is also a citizen of Kreim. After he heard I was coming over to Cromwell Residence, he expressed his wish to visit the prominent. figures of Kreim.”
William didn’t make up any excuses. After all, considering Matthew could command a province, his wisdom was probably far beyond that of ordinary people. Therefore, William figured it was better to be open. instead of coming up with lies.
As a mayor, Cooper naturally recognized Matthew. He quickly came forth and greeted respectfully, “Pleasure to meet you, Deputy Governor Cromwell.”
Generally speaking, the first–in–command in a city was addressed as the mayor, while the second–in–command was addressed as the deputy mayor. As for the government office in Kreim, the first–in–command was known as the governor, while the second–in–command was known as the deputy governor. They were in charge of specific affairs and possessed great power.
Matthew wasn’t offended. Instead, he nodded. “Cooper Zuch. I met a few

people at the meeting who had heard your speech. Judging from their comments, I can conclude that you are a man of action.”
Cooper was a little nervous. “Deputy Governor Cromwell, you flatter me too much. I was just doing my job.”
After introducing Cooper and Matthew to each other, William couldn’t care less about the rest. He went to check on Robert for his follow–up. treatment. As of today, Robert’s health was well–restored. Robert was delighted to see William, and he constantly praised him for his excellent medical skills.
William read his pulse for a moment and concluded, “Old Mr. Cromwell, you’re in good health now. I will prescribe some more medicine. Take them for a few days to stabilize your body condition.”
“Thank you so much, William.” Brandon expressed his gratitude.
“You’re welcome,” said William.
Later, the two came to the side hall to have a chat. “Brandon, I encountered a martial arts expert from Kreim yesterday,” William said.
“Who?” Brandon asked, his interest piqued.
“Cordell Jones,” William said before he relayed the whole story.
After listening to William’s story, Brandon nodded and verified, “Cordell is strong. His Iron Skin attack is powerful and can withstand the blow of my Palm Force. Not to mention, he has mastery in the Eagle Claw Attack and his Mixed Martial Arts has reached the Fifth Stage. I won’t be his match. once he surpasses his current martial arts state. I consider myself dodging a bullet, seeing that he isn’t in conflict with me.”
Nodding, William continued, “His son is fine, so we have no enmity.”
As he spoke, he thought of Carlton. Therefore, he asked, “What about Carlton? How strong is he?”

Brandon was silent for a moment after he heard Carlton’s name. Then, he parted his lips and said, “He’s lethal.”
William’s heart skipped a beat. “Have you fought against him before?”
Brandon shook his head. “Although I haven’t fought against him, I’m certainly not his match.”
“Could it be that he has a higher–level cultivation base?” William was surprised.
Instead of answering his question, Brandon asked, “Your Qi is like the tide, so you must have mastered extraordinary breathing techniques. Am I right?
William understood what he meant. “So, are you saying Carlton has mastered a mighty breathing technique?”
Nodding, Brandon confirmed, “That’s right. You can’t step into the Innate Realm if you don’t master a strong breathing technique. The breathing technique that Carlton mastered is the breathing technique possessed by the Order of Baiqir, known as the Wisdom Gale of Baïqir. It is much more. sophisticated than my breathing technique. The difference is still not obvious at the beginning of Divine Realm. However, the further we advance, the more significant the difference between my breathing technique and his.”
Willy intentionally asked, “Is it truly so difficult to obtain the knowledge of a powerful breathing technique?”
Putting on a wry smile, Brandon elaborated, “Difficult is an
understatement! I only obtained the knowledge of my current breathing technique after kneeling in front of the doorstep of Grandmaster Jaylon for three days and three nights. I served him for three years for the sake of this breathing technique. Now, I’m at his beck and call.”
William was shocked. I didn’t expect that breathing techniques could be so important!

Brandon added, “That’s why I will never compare myself to Carlton at all, for I have already lost to him from the start.”
