"I didn't say I wouldn't teach you, so let go first." Qing Yuzi's chest rose and fell slightly, and his tone softened.
"Oh." He Yunxiao readily agreed to Master Bai's small request.
"I will teach you a method to calm your mind. You can use it whenever your thoughts are chaotic, and it will help you to calm your mind and regulate your emotions."
He Yunxiao: ? ? ?
"Master, after using it, won't you become devoid of desires?"
"No." The voice was cold, but betrayed guilt.
"Daoist Master, you promise." He Yunxiao stared at the veil.
"I promise."
"You must write a written agreement!"
Sure enough, as soon as the phrase "written agreement" was mentioned, the other side fell silent.
He Yunxiao's lips twitched. "Taoist priest?"
Still no reply.
With a sudden thought, He Yunxiao abruptly lifted Qing Yuzi's veil.
That dreamlike, almost unreal beauty appeared in He Yunxiao's eyes once again.
Her face shape, eyebrows, eyes, nose, and small mouth were all the key elements of He Yunxiao's aesthetic sense. Or rather, the key elements of everyone's aesthetic sense when looking at her.
Her "fox spirit constitution" grants her maximum charm.
Even He Yunxiao, who was always surrounded by female protagonists, was momentarily stunned after being hit by the skill, and his heart skipped a beat.
So beautiful...
He Yunxiao stared straight at Qing Yuzi, and Qing Yuzi stared straight at him.
She usually wears a veil when meeting people, or at least she's the one who lifts it to look at others. This is the first time she's been caught off guard and stared at without her veil being lifted.
A faint blush appeared on her deathly pale face. Qing Yuzi said angrily, "Have you looked enough?"
"Oh, I...I'm sorry."
He Yunxiao apologized and didn't mention teaching martial arts again before leaving in a hurry.
Qing Yuzi's beautiful face, as lovely as a first love, as beautiful as a dream, lingered in He Yunxiao's mind. He Yunxiao was so shocked not because she was too beautiful, but because of the unhealthy paleness on her face.
The Taoist priest is injured? How did he get hurt? Did the Grandmaster of Yan Kingdom come by?
Qing Yuzi's mission after descending the mountain was to capture the Grandmaster of Yan Kingdom who had helped the army break through the city. Now that Qing Yuzi had been injured for no reason, He Yunxiao's first suspicion was that mysterious Grandmaster of Yan Kingdom.
Who else could it be but him? Besides Xiaoxiao and Chuchu, who else here could be Qingyuzi's opponent? It couldn't have been Xiaoxiao and Chuchu who fought him, so it could only be that Grandmaster of Yan!
He Yunxiao had already made up his mind, so he didn't waste any more words and immediately mounted his horse and headed for Yanyang City.
...
After He Yunxiao left, Qing Yuzi recited the "Heart-Cleansing Mantra" he had prepared to teach him several times before beginning his healing practice. (cascoo.net)
Starting from sunrise in the early morning, afternoon arrives before we know it.
Even a grandmaster as powerful as him needs to eat; he's not a cultivator. This is especially true for martial artists who practice external martial arts or those who specialize in external, physical training; they need to eat even more.
As soon as Qingyuzi stepped out, she saw the package and envelope at the door.
She looked around, but the area was empty and deserted.
After returning to the house with the items, Qingyuzi was the first to open the envelope and read it.
The package exuded a strong medicinal fragrance, and even without opening it, Qing Yuzi knew what kind of herbs were inside. Almost all of them were valuable items—potentially strong but overpriced "scam" medicines. It was clearly bought by someone who didn't know anything about medicine.
Qingyuzi opened the envelope; the handwriting on it was crooked and slanted, revealing her own thoughts.
Although the handwriting is poor, the writing is fluent.
In short: Daoist Master, I'd like to ask you to refine a pill for me. The extra medicinal herbs will be your payment. Also, the King of the Southwest has arrived with a large army and is holding a "grand assembly." Chu Fan, Chu Xiaoxiao, and I are going to attend. Please look after the house, Daoist Master. If we encounter a strong enemy, please inform Zhang Hu to retreat immediately and not worry about anything else.
Qing Yuzi wasn't stupid. The moment she saw He Yunxiao's medicinal herbs, she knew what her "cheap apprentice" was up to. However, even after discovering that he was injured, he didn't use it to his advantage or seek credit. Instead, he didn't mention it at all in the text, and even deliberately avoided it.
Although it doesn't mention it at all, the concern for oneself is evident in almost every word and sentence of the text.
Qingyuzi carefully folded He Yunxiao's letter and put it in her bosom, keeping it close to her body.
In any case, he had served tea, so he was no stranger but rather half a disciple of the sect.
After putting the letter away, Qing Yuzi untied He Yunxiao's package.
The medicinal herbs she bought last time were almost used up, so the herbs He Yunxiao delivered this time were very timely, by sheer coincidence.
First, she placed the medicinal herbs in the stove to simmer. Then, Qing Yuzi went out to satisfy her hunger before returning to her room to cultivate in seclusion. With He Yunxiao absent, her "True Meaning of Freedom" was able to be fully utilized, supplemented by a large bag of expensive medicinal herbs. By the next morning, Qing Yuzi had miraculously recovered her Grandmaster-level skill.
Although she was still far from her peak, she was no longer afraid of other grandmasters and could finally act freely and at will. She could wield all kinds of supernatural powers with ease, without having to worry about anything else.
Qingyuzi was in a good mood and went out to find food early in the morning.
She specially changed into a new set of clothes, taking off the old one that was covered in dust. Now she could walk with her clothes flowing in the wind, and there was no need to worry that the cold wind, covered in dust, could get close to the fairy-like Taoist priest.
"What position do you think you could get if you joined the alliance, sir?"
"That must be the strategist!"
"The Qi army leaders around our capital are all here. There are some who command more troops than you, sir, who are older, and who have impressive battle records.
"What's so special about that? Mr. Fan is invincible!"
Ruobao's brilliant strategies are seen by ordinary people as if Zhuge Liang had been reincarnated, and he has many admirers in the army.
