Chapter 3225 — These People Are All Dead

"Just circulate the mental technique and incantation you use when you cultivate. Leave the rest to me," Wei Zhao said.
"Now? All right!" The old director answered and began to circulate the mental technique she used in cultivation, and then she felt a ceaseless stream of true qi flowing from the point where Wei Zhao gripped her wrist pulse into her meridians...
The old director was utterly aghast, yet she dared not make a sound; she hurriedly kept circulating her mental technique and cultivating, and very quickly she discovered that her strength had reached the peak of the late Yellow rank!
Since the old director had once been an Earth-rank expert, there was no rank barrier for her now; so long as there was enough true qi, she could rise steadily through the ranks, and so the barrier between peak late Yellow rank and early Mystic rank was far easier for her to break through than for other cultivators...
In front of Xu Shilan, Cheng Yiyi, and Feng Sanmang, Wei Zhao did not bother to hide the fact that he was raising the old director's rank, but a flicker of doubt crossed Yu Xiaoke's eyes! It was the first she had ever heard that Wei Zhao could raise someone else's rank—though for some reason, her thoughts drifted back to the ancient tomb.
Back then, the male thief had seemed to have the ability to raise others' ranks as well—at least, the strength of the female thief and that follower of hers seemed to have suddenly improved inside the tomb. Still, Yu Xiaoke was not entirely certain, so the thought passed as quickly as it came.
Feng Sanmang, for his part, had known a thing or two about Wei Zhao before; Wei Zhao advanced quickly in rank, and the underlings around him advanced quickly too. But Feng Sanmang was not, after all, particularly close to Wei Zhao, so he had never asked. Now it seemed that most likely Wei Zhao had been the one raising those underlings' strength all along!
At that thought, Feng Sanmang felt a pang of envy. Wei Zhao could actually raise others' strength? How many more hidden top-tier abilities did Wei Zhao possess?
Shock glittered in Cheng Yiyi's beautiful eyes as well! She too knew about cultivators, and knew how difficult it was for them to advance in rank—yet now, with Wei Zhao, it seemed to be no problem at all?
Very quickly, the old director's strength soared from the Yellow rank all the way up to the Earth rank... even surpassing her original level—early Earth rank! To her astonishment, the old director found that her strength had already surpassed early Earth rank and climbed all the way to peak late Earth rank before it finally stopped!
Because Wei Zhao was drawing the energy true qi directly from the jade pendant's space, he had not depleted any true qi of his own; after raising the old director to peak late Earth rank, he felt no fatigue at all. He merely withdrew his hand under the stunned gazes of everyone present and smiled. "Old director, you are now a peak late Earth-rank expert. Ordinary cultivators won't be able to make trouble for you. But the Dongfang clan has gone very quiet now, and I doubt they'll come looking for trouble with you either—East Sea City must be their nightmare and their forbidden ground."
