As the investigation deepened, Lin Jinglong's eyes suddenly widened in surprise.

He discovered that there seemed to be a turbid aura in Qian Shuyun's dantian.

Furthermore, it seems that her Ren and Du meridians were already connected.

Those wisps of turbid energy flowed through the meridians throughout the body, then formed a large circulation, before returning to Qian Shuyun's dantian.

It should be noted that the meridians of ordinary people are blocked.

Only by mastering the art of circulating qi and then combining it with internal energy cultivation techniques can a martial artist gradually break through the blockages and open up their meridians.

Legend has it that those martial arts practitioners with exceptional talent are born with their meridians already fully opened.

These people are also martial arts prodigies, one in ten thousand.

When Lin Jinglong first went up the mountain, all twelve meridians and three hundred and sixty acupoints in his body had already been connected.

In addition, he was born with a pure yang body, and his cultivation speed was several times faster than that of ordinary people.

That's why his level of understanding is much higher than that of his peers.

Moreover, the Heavenly Dragon Treasure Technique that Lin Jinglong comprehended involves cultivating the body externally and the internal organs internally, achieving dual cultivation of both and harmonizing the five internal organs.

The cultivation techniques he practiced were all top-tier.

Therefore, even a strong person at the same level as Lin Jinglong might not be able to defeat him.

To Lin Jinglong's surprise, Qian Shuyun, as a girl, actually had such high cultivation talent.

Qian Shuyun was slightly taken aback when she saw Lin Jinglong's gaze.

"Mr. Lin? What's wrong?"

Is...is something wrong?

Her face flushed; after all, this was the first time Qian Shuyun had ever been so close to a boy in her life.

The feeling of being spied on made her feel as if Lin Jinglong had seen right through her.

"Haha! Miss Qian, you're overthinking it!"

"I never expected Miss Qian to be so talented. If she is nurtured, she will definitely become a martial arts master in time!"

Upon hearing this, Old Master Qian was immediately taken aback.

Qian Haoran also stared excitedly at his younger sister.

"Mr. Lin, are you telling the truth?"

Qian Haoran was both happy for his sister and disappointed in himself.

His younger sister had always been an excellent student and was considered the hope of the Qian family.

Old Master Qian cherished it dearly, but Qian Haoran was different.

The old man always treated him with corporal punishment, and he seemed to be inferior to his sister in every way.

This left Qian Haoran with a huge sense of disappointment and inferiority.

"Mr. Lin, are you saying I'm a martial arts prodigy?"

"But...but I don't know anything about martial arts at all!" Qian Shuyun blushed.

"It's actually very simple. I can teach you a basic internal energy cultivation method!"

"I can also teach you how to improve your luck!"

"As long as you practice diligently and master the art of circulating qi, your strength will greatly increase!" Lin Jinglong said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Qian Zhongliang's face showed a hint of worry.

"Alas! Mr. Lin, to be honest, I don't want Shu Yun to embark on the path of martial arts!"

“I know how difficult it is, but I really hope she can find a man and get married peacefully!” Qian Zhongliang sighed slightly.

He was also a martial artist, and he spent his whole life fighting and crawling out of piles of dead bodies many times.

He was fully aware of how dangerous this road was.

Qian Shuyun is gentle and kind-hearted, and has never even argued with anyone since childhood.

If she encountered a bad person, she probably wouldn't be able to bring herself to do it.

But once you feel compassion, you'll likely be the only one who gets hurt in the end.

In this dog-eat-dog world, only by learning to be ruthless and decisive can one secure a place for oneself.

People with soft hearts will be bullied their whole lives.

My daughter is too kind; this kindness will one day ruin her.

Unless she can change this personality trait!

However, upon hearing Old Master Qian's words, Qian Shuyun immediately retorted, "Dad!"

"Since God has given me this talent, it means this is my opportunity!"

"Besides, you're old, and Uncle Huang is old too. Can you protect me for the rest of my life?"

"I don't want to be a hothouse flower, dying from the slightest wind and rain!"

"I want to change, I want to grow. At the very least, after learning martial arts, I can protect myself!"

Qian Shuyun's gaze suddenly hardened.

"Grandpa, I think Miss Qian has a point!"

"Can you protect him for a while, or can you protect him for a lifetime?"

"Under my tutelage, I believe Miss Qian will grow very quickly!"

Let's be good people to the end!

Lin Jinglong is planning to collect some medicinal herbs these days, as he may need Old Master Qian's help in some areas.

Furthermore, he felt that the Qian family were all good people and worth helping.

Qian Shuyun also smiled. With a master like Lin Jinglong helping her cultivate, she didn't need to take on any master at all.

Seeing his daughter's resolute attitude, Old Master Qian seemed to have made up his mind as well.

"Alright! In that case, I will entrust my daughter to Mr. Lin's care!"

"Thank you for your help, Master Lin!"

Qian Zhongliang knew that if he missed this opportunity, he would never encounter it again!

Lin Jinglong's instruction to his daughter for one day is better than that of so-called martial arts masters who provide instruction for a month.

Old Master Qian bowed deeply to Lin Jinglong to express his gratitude, then picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Lin Jinglong smiled faintly: "Tomorrow, I will help you open up several major acupoints in your body, allowing you to get ahead of others!"
