The discovery of Youlan's unusual movement technique came when Liao Tianming joined Bloodwing and contributed the Liao family's insects and technology, as well as the Liao family's origins.

Unlike the Mu and Niu families, which are native noble branches of the Xin family, the Liao family originated from the Jiuyue tribe, but they were all assimilated into the Xin family lineage.

As the former overlords of the Southern Frontier, the Nine Yue differed from the main schools of Xin Su in their techniques, divine will, and concealment. They specialized in the Beast Taming and Witchcraft styles.

Beast taming, as the name suggests, means controlling beasts, including but not limited to those that fly in the sky, run on the ground, swim in the water, and even insects.

The shamanic school leans towards blessing, transformation, and witchcraft medicine, much like a flesh master who controls the techniques of flesh and blood. However, the process deviates greatly from the humanistic philosophy of martial arts of the Xuanpin school, and can be considered heretical.

Although the Liao family's main lineage is the shamanistic insect lineage, which involves the modification and cultivation of insects, they also have a lineage in insect manipulation. It was only after obtaining these that Dao Chengyi discovered that there was such a lurking member of the Jiuyue tribe by his side.

Despite being weak and powerless, with no meridians, she was exceptionally skilled in pharmacology and had superb techniques. Moreover, under the influence of the Pharmacist Gu, her body showed obvious signs of change, deviating from the expression of her genes. This was undeniable.

"The master is just pretending, fooling everyone else, but he doesn't seem to care at all."

Dao Chengyi's methods may fool those who are lonely and have little romantic experience, but they cannot fool those women who are emotionally sensitive and have taken relationships seriously.

"Who can be proficient in everything? If one is unparalleled in martial arts, what does it matter if one is lacking in other aspects?"

"As for you, if you continue to say such meaningless things, I, your master, will certainly have to resort to some methods."

The behavior was genuine. At least, if it weren't for preconceived notions from a previous life, how many people in this era would draw eyebrows for a maid and confide in each other?

It's normal for some people to look down on it, after all, there were also some arrogant fairies in the past life. But it doesn't matter, since we've already experienced what we were meant to experience, there's nothing to regret about dying.

"Of course I will not refuse you, sir. After all, I gave you my virginity. Women of Jiuyue are known for their chastity and loyalty. Since I gave it to you, I will follow you for the rest of my life."

"These methods are merely to get Master to pay more attention to me, but they also underestimate Master's capabilities."

Youlan's expression changed again, her pitiful yet tender appearance was truly a masterful performance, but she quickly answered Daocheng's question.

“If Master wants to lure Jiu Yue into the game, I do have some ideas. Jiu Yue has always been xenophobic, and Master has a bit of Jiu Yue’s blood in him. With this foundation, we can get those old guys to give in.”

"The fact that you didn't rise from humble beginnings to become a Marquis of Wu is the second advantage of the lord. Only those with shallow foundations and a clean reputation can be trusted."

"And the master's exceptional martial arts talent is the third advantage, and also the most important one. Jiuyue has been in a slump for a long time, and the emergence of another saint is the hope of all Jiuyue people. The master can use his talent as a bargaining chip to live a life of ease."

Of course, there is a fourth point, which is ambition. Those who are content with stability but lack sufficient ambition will not gain anyone's support. Only with enough ambition can investors receive greater returns.

Of those who vie for power, how many do not strive for the emperor's favor? Which one would not wish to serve the emperor? To be ennobled and appointed prime minister, to establish an imperial dynasty, to overlook the entire world, and to control the six directions and eight wastelands?

"And what I can offer you is proof of the bloodline of the most noble king of the Jiuyue tribe. You should know what that is, right?"

Then it does connect to the Nine Yue kings who were suppressed by Qingmang, the Jingchu king who made the greatest contribution to the retreat of the Nine Yue, and whose entire lineage perished.

His flesh and blood were fed to the vast Lu River, and his spirit was suppressed under the Qingmang City, where he was trampled by the people day and night. He was a martial arts king who witnessed the decline of Jiuyue and the rise of Xinsu.

As for the bloodline issue, it's strange, but Jiu Yue and Xin Su are indeed mixed blood. However, it's easy to cosplay the bloodline of that king. The Medicine Master Gu, Blood Gu, and Transformation Dao Gu worms are very easy to disguise.

"So what do you want?"

"What I want is very simple: to wipe out the entire Jiuyue clan, from top to bottom, so that they are all completely wiped out."

"It would be best to give them hope, let them see the hope of Jiuyue's revival, and then let them die in front of the Canglan Water, which they regard as their origin."

Her eyes were filled with hatred, utter hatred, the kind of hatred that made her live only for revenge.

"That's exactly what I like about you."

Now that the final step is complete, he can rest assured and wait for the right time, place, and people to come.

As she thought this, Youlan also saw Daocheng's undisguised ambition. He was a treacherous and disloyal person, and she needed someone like him who had lost all humanity to be her helper.

She immediately lowered her head, opened her mouth, and took the future that she could look forward to into her mouth.

At this time, Dao Chengyi remained stationed at the mine, but the undercurrents within Qingmang City were gradually being stirred up. First, within the Blood Lotus assassin organization, everyone in the Mu family, from the lowest-ranking managers to the highest-ranking elders, was put on a bounty. The money had been paid, and the settlement would be made once the head was taken! Even injuries would earn money!

In the gangs of the North City, the Jue Shan Gang, which is the front man of the Mu family, has also begun to face sudden challenges from several other gangs. The Meng Hu Gang under it has also begun to invite the leaders and heads of other gangs belonging to the Jue Shan Gang to their residences one after another.

The blacksmith shop in the south of the city suddenly ran into trouble. A wandering man dressed in mourning clothes came to the shop with a coffin and a broken knife, crying out that the Mu family was vicious and had harmed his brother with inferior knives.
