老太太真实CHEAPWINDOWS

He also improvised on it with modern knowledge to optimize the movement, but halfway through, he stopped because he got stuck.

It\'s possible to optimize the movement set, but at the same time, this makes it very hard to use secret techniques. Every motion is experimented with and polished over many generations to ensure the flow of qi moves in a certain pattern to activate the secret art.

This made Alex need to choose his basic art carefully since he needed to polish it over time. It\'s either that, or he abandons the thought of using secret techniques until he reaches something like the immortal stage.

He then asked Vesa about this, wondering if there was any solution. But Vesa also didn\'t know.

Vampires are masters at using life force; they can manipulate blood and strengthen their physical form, but not use elements like fire or ice.

When Vesa modified techniques, it was done in a way to strengthen them by utilizing life force in a more efficient way, compared to how Alex used it before, which was very inefficient.

His attack last time cost him more than 10,000 life energy. In the end, after deducting all the expenses, Alex still had a significant stockpile of life force energy, but Vesa took most of it, leaving him only with around 6,000 outside his own 2,000 life force limit.

MingYue also started doing what Alex did, utilizing mana to enhance parts of her body with Alex\'s method, but it was barely useful since her body was already enhanced by Qi; her starting point was different from Alex\'s.

If Alex is building a new foundation, then MingYue is transforming an existing foundation into a stronger one.

The result does raise her life energy limit, but not as much as Alex\'s.

However, it still boosts her combat strength since her secret techniques now use her life force energy.

In her world, the sect also started to progress.

In total, there are now more than four hundred people living in the sect, with thirty outer disciples, including MingHao. MingYue also visited JianFen\'s family; her uncle was excited when he met her, hugging her with tears.

MingYue smiled bitterly when this happened, feeling warm and guilty at the same time. She exchanged some small talk with them and met her new nephew for the first time.

Her uncle offered her to hold the baby, but MingYue declined. She felt awkward holding a baby since they seemed so fragile to her.

MingYue was afraid she might hurt her.

After saying goodbye, MingYue left the secret realm. She wanted to look for Qi crystal mines and natural treasures using Vesa\'s abilities. She also wanted to check on the situation at her sect.

Meanwhile, Alex was on his way to the association to finalize the sign-up deal.

To his surprise, the one who wanted to meet with him was not just any hunter but the association president. This made him feel wary.

There is so little information known about him other than that he is an eccentric person.

Arriving at the association, he saw his sister Emily standing there with two people beside her; he recognized them as Quartz and Olivia. Lately, Emily often spent time with them, training and hanging out together.

When they heard Alex wanted to meet with the association to secure a deal, it piqued their curiosity. Emily kept her lips sealed about the details, which is why Quartz and Olivia wanted to find out from Alex.

But Alex always avoids meeting for many reasons, the main one being Olivia.

Seeing them made Alex\'s eyes widen in surprise. Olivia, instead, felt excited; she ran toward Alex.

Alex stood stupefied while Olivia hugged him and pulled him over to her bosom. "You have grown some balls now, huh, Alex? You ignore all my calls and messages."

Emily and Quartz chuckled. Seeing it, even the security couldn\'t help but hold their laughter. It looked like a child acting like a mother to a young adult, making it look comical.

"Alright, I\'m sorry. Can you stop it already?"

"What did I tell you to call me?"

Alex hesitated, but feeling the gaze of people on him, he sighed, "Alright, big sis, stop it already."

In the past, Olivia made him call her that; at first, he called her aunt like Emily, but Olivia made him change it to big sis.

Alex speculated that for Olivia, both his parents are like her own, which is why she wanted him to call her that, but that doesn\'t make sense since his sister calls her aunt.

But that is not the reason why Alex avoided her.

Olivia released Alex, seeing his face turn red, which made her chuckle. "Why are you all red like that? We even bathed together in the past." Her words earned him a judging gaze from everyone.

Alex sighed, "Don\'t say something that makes others misunderstand; that was when I was still a kid."

"And who was the one asking for it?"

Alex gulped, "Alright, I\'m sorry. Can you not say embarrassing things like that in public?"

It\'s not like he asked for it directly; at that time, Alex had just hit puberty. With his constant meetings with Olivia, he tried to peek at her a few times.

In his defense, it was just a glance through the gap in the fabric, but Olivia realized this. Instead of getting mad, she pulled Alex to take a bath with her. But this is still not the reason why Alex avoided her.

Olivia pouted, "Hmph, good that you know." Her eyes then turned serious. "Are you really still mad about that?"
