Chapter 4 The Correct Usage of Qing Lian
Gu Jinlai returned to the site where he had slain three of the Star State Four Fierce, only to find that the old man had already left.

By the riverside, having cleaned up, Gu Jinlai changed into a gaudy set of clothes.
The "Gu Jinlai" he had crossed into was sixty-nine years old.

His body remained strong and nimble, capable of eating and jumping around with more vitality than a man in his twenties.
