Chapter 76 Aro's Method
Chapter 76 Aro's Method
After returning to Dali, Dao Baifeng practiced Taoism at the Yuxu Temple.
Qin Hongmian, Gan Baobao, and Ruan Xingzhu, the three women, naturally could not live in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
Ruan Xingzhu lived in the city.
The Qin and Gan sisters lived in seclusion in a secluded valley, which was Qin Hongmian's home.
As for Wanjie Valley... Gan Baobao certainly won't go back, even though Zhong Wanchou still loves her.
That night.
Unable to sleep, Duan Zhengchun slipped out of the palace to find the Qin and Gan sisters.
The situation is much better now.
Dao Baifeng focused on cultivating the Dao and was no longer so jealous.
So when he went out to have a meal, he no longer needed to bring his retainers to keep watch for him.
but……
Halfway there.
Duan Yanqing jumped out.
After a fight.
"Awoooooo..."
Duan Zhengchun clutched his groin and cried out in pain.
Duan Yanqing said in ventriloquism, "It was your own carelessness, it has nothing to do with me."
After saying that, he kindly used his steel staff to perform the One-Finger Divine Skill to stop the bleeding for his rival.
Then, naturally, they ran away.
His purpose was actually very clear.
He learned from someone that Duan Yu was his child, and after confirming this, he took action.
As long as Duan Zhengchun loses his weapon!
There would be no way to have any more children and threaten Yu'er's throne!
At the same time, it's impossible for him to bully Guanyin anymore!
A win-win situation!
He won twice!
It's actually a win-win-win situation.
Qi Ming also won once.
In fact, it should be a win-win-win situation for all four parties.
Compared to the original story, Duan Zhengchun and his harem all survived.
Mantuo Villa.
The wind and snow continue.
Qi Ming also slipped out and went into Wang Yuyan's boudoir.
He then climbed directly onto the fragrant couch, embraced the latter's slender waist, and said very passionately:
"Yan'er, do you miss your husband?"
Wang Yuyan snorted: "Aside from a certain princess, who would want a scumbag?"
After saying that, she grabbed Qi Ming's hand, preventing him from hugging her.
Qi Ming went a step further, turning sideways and placing his left leg on her, while feigning jealousy as he said:
"Have I been bad to you? And how has he treated you? Ask yourself these questions."
In fact, his words were meant to make Wang Yuyan responsible for asking herself questions, while he was responsible for examining her own conscience.
Wang Yuyan scolded playfully, "Can't you be serious for once?"
Qi Ming argued vehemently, "How can a man and a woman be proper alone at night?"
He then gently pulled at Wang Yuyan's robe, saying softly:
"Yu Yan, let me tell you, no matter how much you like him, it won't stop me from marrying you. If you want to save him, then hone your martial arts skills and go save him yourself! Even if I were the most magnanimous husband, I wouldn't save my rival!"
"You can practice the Northern Darkness Divine Art. I will let you absorb some of its power out of consideration for our past as husband and wife."
Wang Yuyan was a little touched, but she still couldn't help but say:
"Brother Ming, I... I'd rather cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra."
Qi Ming laughed heartily, kissed her cheek a few times, and refused:
"If you master the Heart Sutra to a high level, you can not only become a top-notch master in the world, but also stay young forever. It's not surprising that you want to practice it."
"There is one difficulty, which I must make clear beforehand."
"To cultivate this mental technique, one must be a man and a woman, preferably lovers. After each cultivation session, a 'love poison' will be generated, ten times more potent than a strong drug. It can only be neutralized through sexual intercourse. Can you accept this?"
Wang Yuyan's pretty face flushed red: "This is too eerie! Does Qing'er know about this?"
"She's still young, don't say things like that, lest this girl get too eager to get close to men."
"Um……"
"Do you want to cultivate? With your exceptional talent, you should be able to complete the second level of the Taoist mental cultivation method in two years at most, and then officially cultivate with your husband and go to Wushan together."
The Jade Maiden Heart Sutra is divided into three steps: first, practice the Ancient Tomb Heart Method; then, practice the Quanzhen Heart Method; and finally, engage in dual cultivation.
Wang Yuyan's martial arts talent is undeniable; compared to her, Qi Ming is practically a born waste. Without the old man, there would have been no way she could have turned the tables.
"Brother Ming..."
Wang Yuyan deliberately asked, "If you teach me, but I go and practice with my cousin, allowing him to improve his skills, wouldn't you be angry?"
Qi Ming was naturally angry: "The last chapter of this manual is an unparalleled technique of combining two swords. Its subtle and intricate aspects require a deep and abiding love between a man and a woman to possibly master!"
"He doesn't love you; he's only after his grand ambition of restoring his kingdom. He'll never succeed! You should train with me! Only after you've mastered it will you have the ability to save him! The Great Shift of Heaven and Earth!"
As soon as the word "move" was uttered, Wang Yuyan also rose into the air.
With a "rip," fragments of her nightgown scattered across the floor like snowflakes outside, forming a white sheep that landed in Qi Ming's arms.
Qi Ming put his arm around her and said, "Since you want to cultivate the Heart Sutra, then starting tonight, let's start developing our relationship!"
Wang Yuyan hummed in agreement, feeling a bit faint, but being held by her fiancé, she couldn't faint no matter what.
So she resigned herself to her fate and held Qi Ming tightly in her arms.
Unfortunately, Li Qinglu showed up with a pillow at the crucial moment.
"Qing'er, don't move. Let me press your sleeping acupoint."
"Awoo!"
Li Qinglu bit Qi Ming's finger hard, then shoved him out of her room.
In short, there's only one point:
She arrived first, and Wang Yuyan was not allowed to bypass her.
Wang Yuyan said awkwardly, "I practiced this skill to save my cousin, please don't misunderstand."
Li Qinglu scoffed, "Who do you think you can fool with that? If you want to improve your skills, just practice the Northern Darkness Divine Art; if you want to stay young forever, go find your grandmother and learn the Longevity and Youthful Art. Why do you have to practice the Heart Sutra?"
Wang Yuyan sighed and said, "Fine, I won't practice anymore."
"I'm not forbidding you from practicing, but you can't sneak food!"
"I didn't steal it, he came by himself."
"I don't care about that, I'll live here with you from now on."
"If I don't practice, cousin..."
"Who cares about him! Your husband is right. Between you and me, he'll definitely choose me, not because I'm prettier, but because I have more connections! How could you possibly like a man like that?"
"You're right, I'll go find your husband now."
"You're not allowed to go!"
"..."
Wang Yuyan rolled her eyes, pulled the covers over her head, and went to sleep.
Li Qinglu, however, wouldn't let her off the hook, asking her like a curious child what it felt like.
Qi Ming wasn't idle either.
Instead, he woke up A'Zhu and taught her the art of disguise.
It's only the beginning of Hai (亥初) now, which is a little past nine o'clock in the evening!
As for that kind of thing...
The next day.
At Li Qingluo's invitation, Qi Ming went to talk to her.
Li Qingluo was straightforward. After a few polite exchanges, she spoke quickly and directly:
"I gave Yan'er to you, how will you repay me? I don't want anything else, I just want the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra."
Qi Ming explained it to her in a very serious manner:
"...At this point, it will take at least six months for Prince Duan to accompany you to achieve success. If he can't, then there's definitely no chance."
Li Qingluo gritted her teeth and came up with a good idea:
"You've learned the art of disguise; you can impersonate him from now on."
"This estate may not have much else, but it has lots of flowers! We'll find a flowerbed to use as cover!"
Qi Ming nodded: "Then how do we deal with the love poison?"
Li Qingluo said proudly, "I've endured all these years, what's a little love poison to me?"
It's more than just reasonable.
It's simply irrefutable.
