Boom!

The energy wave that was projected to Zheng-Fu did not go through him but fell on the ground before him. The explosion from the energy impact on the ground was so severe that it destroyed the space in the area…

Then the Master of the Tower of Fighting Manuals soared down from the tower and landed at the entrance of the tower. He crinkled his eyebrows when he landed…

"Come out now!"

The Master of the Tower said while looking around to find the person who gave out the different vibe that he detected, but he found no one…

Zheng-Fu was four long paces away from the Master of the Tower. The boy was standing calmly while looking at the elderly Master and then he said…

"Do you see me, Master?"

*No response*

The Master of the Tower continued to look around but did not say anything. When Zheng-Fu saw that, he crinkled his eyebrows and started to walk towards the Master of the Tower…

Three steps!

Two steps!

Finally, Zheng-Fu stopped right in front of the Master of the Tower. He then slowly reached his hand to the Master of the Tower…

Thud!

All of a sudden, the Master of the Tower stepped back and prepared himself to fight. His facial expression was extremely determined…

The Master of the Tower: "Show yourself! I know you're there!"

Zheng-Fu looked at the Master of the Tower and said, "I'm not hiding. I'm right in front of you, Master!" Zheng-Fu's face changed from being worried to smiling all of a sudden…

He continued to walk towards the Master of the Tower. When he got close to the Master of the Tower, he reached his hand to touch him again…

Boom!

The Master of the Tower projected the energy while jumping backward for three to four paces. The energy wave went through Zheng-Fu…

The Master of the Tower crinkled his eyebrows again. He had been a monk for a long time and had some idea about ghosts, but had never seen one before. He thought that there might not be ghosts in the world, but this incident made him believe that there might be one…

"Amida Buddha!"

The Master of the Tower, all of a sudden, changed his posture to press his palms together and said…

The Master of the Tower: "No matter who you are, as long as you don't wish to hurt anyone, it's acceptable!"

Zheng-Fu smiled when he heard that before walking towards the Master of the Tower and reaching his hand to touch him one more time…

Whoosh!

The Master of the Tower got jumpy when Zheng-Fu put his hand through his body. He got goosebumps and felt as if there was some kind of energy pierced into him. His face got pale. Then he started to crinkle his eyebrows…

"Tee-hee!"

Zheng-Fu could not help but laugh when he saw that the Master of the Tower got scared of him. He then started to walk towards the Master and tried to touch him again…

Whoosh!

Grab!

This time, Zheng-Fu's hand did not go through the Master of the Tower. He actually grabbed and felt the arm of the Master of the Tower…

"Whoa!"

The Master of the Tower felt that someone grabbed his arm, but he did not see anyone there or anything on his arm, so he closed his eyes and started to chant immediately…

"Amida Buddha. Amida Buddha!"

Zheng-Fu pulled his hand back instantly. He looked at his hand, feeling startled. He did not expect that he could really touch the arm of the Master of the Tower. All he did was put energy on the touch just to tease the Master of the Tower…

It turned out that he could touch the Master of the Tower. He stopped and thought for a while before thinking about doing something…

Zheng-Fu walked up to the entrance of the Tower of the Fighting Manuals and started to transmit his Qi energy to the door to open it…

Grab!

"I can touch it!" Zheng-Fu said while feeling surprised. He then pushed open the door…

Squeak!

The tower's door started to open slowly. The Master of the Tower, seeing that, got startled with goosebumps again when the door opened by itself…

"It turns out that I can touch things in this dimension. I just have to send the Qi energy to my hands first." Zheng-Fu said while looking at his hands and turned to look at the inside of the tower with a smile on his face…

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp!

Zheng-Fu did not wait any longer. He started to check out the tower immediately while smiling happily. He was delighted about being able to touch things. Now he could open the fighting manuals that he wanted to read without peeking at others' manuals…

"Amida Buddha!"

The Master of the Tower could only watch the tower's door open and close by itself without blinking. Then he gave out a long exhale before walking back into the tower…

"Wow! So, this is what Shaolin Monastery's Tower of the Fighting Manuals looks like from the inside. I didn't have a chance to see the real thing in the previous world. They don't allow any outsiders in, so there was no chance for me to visit the place. This is what it's like." Zheng-Fu said while feeling satisfied…

The Tower of the Fighting Manuals consisted of seven floors. Zheng-Fu rested on the first floor, which was full of scrolls of fighting manuals. There were probably about 10 thousand of them. They were mostly long histories of Shaolin Monastery and other stories. A lot of Shaolin's practicing routines were found there too…

"This is the heaven of the people who love martial arts, indeed!"

Zheng-Fu could not stop smiling. He smiled from ear to ear and looked all over the place without knowing where to start. He continued to walk around the first floor and headed to the shelves that contained the scrolls of Shaolin's histories. He then started to think of something…

"Maybe I should not read the histories of this place because this was not the real place in the Xianxia world. It'd be better if I read their fighting manuals instead." Zheng-Fu said while trying to make a decision…

Zheng-Fu had been stuck in the dimension for more than a month now. He was still in bed unconscious outside of the dimension. However, his body was brought back to his clan. Tong-Kuang, Dan-Chun-Gu, and everyone in the group took turns to look after him…

Back to the day that Zheng-Fu was brought back home. The people in the clan were surprised to see everyone in Tong-Kuang's group. They had never seen the people in the group before, except for Tong-Kuang. They could feel that everyone in the group possessed high energy levels, as equal to the ones the elders of the clan possessed. Tong-Kuang was the strongest one on his team…

The energy pressure that was radiated from Tong-Kuang was completely horrifying. It was probably not lesser than Mo-Zi's, the leader of the Tian-Tang clan…

A person from the clan 1: "Who are these people? I've never seen them before…"

A person from the clan 2: "How would I know? I've got to see them for the first time with you. I know one of them though. That's him. The one with a horrifying look. His name is Tong-Kuang.

He's Zheng-Fu kid's bodyguard!"

A person from the clan 1: "A bodyguard!?"

The people in the clan started to chat about Tong-Kuang and his group. They all gathered around the carriage that Zheng-Fu was at. Now everyone in the clan heard the news about Zheng-Fu being asleep and never woke up. They did not know what happened to him…

Hai-Gu: "How's Zheng-Fu, brother Kong-Shi?"

Hai-Gu asked Kong-Shi with concern. Others joined the group because they wanted to know what happened to him…

Kong-Shi: "Zheng-Fu is still unconscious. He's just not waking up…"

Kong-Shi said, feeling sad. He had only himself to blame to let his son out of the clan's estate that day…

Tang-Ling: "Don't blame yourself, dear husband. At least he did not get wounded. He's just sleeping. He'll definitely wake up…"

When Tang-Ling saw misery on her husband's face, she felt the need to console him. She also felt responsible for what happened to her son. But she had to withhold herself after a long week of shedding tears. No matter how heavy she cried, her son would not wake up…

So, she had to stop crying in the end. Tang-Ling also felt grateful for Zheng-Fu that her son had someone loyal like Tong-Kuang next to him in the good and hard times. She also noticed that the rest of Tong-Kuang's group looked at Zheng-Fu with utmost worried eyes…

After Zheng-Fu had been taken into his room, Tong-Kuang and the rest of the group kept their eyes on him closely. Kong-Shi prepared rooms for everyone in the group, so they could be with Zheng-Fu…

Kong-Shi: "I have to thank all of you for taking the best care of my son. I am grateful for that and worry that we can't take the best care of all of you…"

Kong-Shi said while feeling worried. He was afraid that the service from Tong-Kuang and his group must be very expensive. He did not know where his son got the money to pay Tong-Kuang and everyone. Kong-Shi knew that all the armors that Tong-Kuang and the group were wearing cost more than ten thousand monster crystal coins…

Kong-Shi jumped to the conclusion that the wages of Tong-Kuang and the team must be very expensive. He might not be able to pay them…

Tong-Kuang: "Elder! Madam! We never want anything in return. We only want to be next to him only to protect him!"

"That's right!"

Dan-Chun-Gu: "Young master Zheng-Fu has been generous to us. He has been helping us with many things. What we've done for him can't compare to his generosity to us. We're willing to protect him, sir!"

The rest of the group also nodded their heads to agree with Dan-Chun-Gu. All of them had never expected any money in return. What Zheng-Fu gave them, they could not acquire by themselves, not even in 10 years…

"Don't need anything in return!?"

When Kong-Shi and Tang-Ling heard that, they had to widen their eyes in awe. Both of them did not understand why the group did not want any money. It was strange for them that the group only wanted to protect their son…

Kong-Shi: *What did Zheng-Fu do for them so much that they did not want anything back? He had been with them for only a short while. How come these martial artists would want to stick with him this much?*

Dan-Chun-Gu and everyone in the group intimidated the people in the clan because each one in the group was extremely strong with a high level of Qi energy. They could be as strong as the elders in the clan. The armors also made them look respectable and horrifying at the same time…

Some people in the clan were jealous of Zheng-Fu for having these capable people looking out for him. Some speculated that Tong-Kuang's group was sent from the owner of In-See City. Some said that Zheng-Fu must have made certain kinds of a contract with the people in the city…

Times flew. From days in bed being unconscious, it had now been months that Zheng-Fu was still asleep. Tong-Kuang and the rest kept on protecting him closely since day one. The group also helped Kong-Shi hunt monsters. It helped increase the importance of Kong-Shi in the clan…

The fact that Tong-Kuang was at the Golden Core stage like Mo-Zi prevented the people in the clan from messing with him. They tended to want to be friends with Tong-Kuang…

Lao-Chu, who lived to compete with Kong-Shi, made an ugly twisted face when he saw that others gave importance to Kong-Shi. No one paid attention to him like before. Kong-Shi beat him in everything like hunting monsters and other things…

The clan gave a lot of responsibilities to Kong-Shi and Dan-Chun-Gu's team instead of Lao-Chu. Thus, Lao-Chu was angry with that…

"Darn it!"

Lao-Chu: "What's happening!? Where did those people come from!?"

Lao-Chu exclaimed with anger. He started to break things in the house with utmost rage…

"Father!"

Lao-Chu: "Don't say any more words! You are…!"

Thud!

Lao-Chu sat down on a chair while clenching his head because of disappointment and anger. No matter how much he tried, he had never been able to compete with Kong-Shi. Kong-Shi defeated him both in love and capability. Now he had more power than him. The new change made Lao-Chu extremely devastated…
