Chapter 12: Mortal Eyes Cannot Recognize Divine Treasures
She had initially doubted the breathing method Wang Xuan had taught her, assuming it was merely a means to control her—to better use her.
But now, her thoughts had changed.
That breathing technique wasn’t of this world!
It was truly transcendental!
She used to believe the Nine Yin Manual was the pinnacle of martial arts. But meeting Wang Xuan made her realize just how narrow her vision had been.
And Wang Xuan had said one thing very accurately—
This is your fortune!
After all, there were countless women in the world. Wang Xuan didn’t need her specifically.
“Then it’s time to teach you something new!”
As he wrapped his arms around her, Wang Xuan whispered.
After reaching Stage 3, the foundational breathing method became instinctual. No longer needing conscious effort, the body would naturally synchronize.
This allowed mental focus to shift to other techniques.
And the new method he intended to teach her was the Phoenix Lure Art!
Using sound as bait, paired with coordinated movements, it maximized the body’s potential!
“This…?”
Huang Rong swallowed hard.
Even though she and Wang Xuan were deeply intimate, the Phoenix Lure Art still made her feel uneasy.
It was too shameful!
After a moment of hesitation, she finally nodded.
She was getting used to accepting whatever Wang Xuan gave her.
…
Li Mochou opened her eyes on the bed. After a full night’s sleep, she felt light and clear.
“The poison’s really gone?”
To be honest, even as she swallowed, she hadn’t truly believed Wang Xuan’s claims.
But now the evidence was clear before her. She was thoroughly stunned.
Who on earth is Wang Xuan?
Li Mochou suddenly felt regretful about their previous arrangement.
A man this powerful and handsome—and I was going to hand him over to my disciple?
How foolish!
She touched her lips, conflicted.
So what are we now?
Then a noise caught her attention.
Li Mochou moved toward the wall, ears pricked, eyes wide.
She had her suspicions, but seeing it confirmed was another matter entirely.
“Madam Guo actually…”
Li Mochou’s beautiful eyes widened, and a decision formed in her heart.
Even the famed Madam Guo does this—what’s there for a demoness like me to hold back for?
Li Mochou didn’t sleep well all night.
There was no helping it—the noise from next door was too loud, making it impossible to sleep!
In the end, she could only sit cross-legged on the bed to meditate. Although she still couldn’t calm her mind, by dawn, her internal energy had recovered by thirty to forty percent.
“I’ve finally come back to life!”
Having walked through the gates of hell, Li Mochou felt as if she were in a different world.
Pushing open the door and heading downstairs, as soon as she reached the inn’s main hall, she caught sight of a familiar figure.
“Lingbo?”
“Master!”
At the inn’s threshold, a disheveled little girl, upon seeing Li Mochou’s figure, let out a “wa” and burst into tears, hurriedly stepping forward to kneel and kowtow.
It was none other than Hong Lingbo, who had been separated and lost earlier!
“Master, you’re still alive—it’s so wonderful, sob sob sob…”
If it were before, upon hearing these words, Li Mochou would likely have slapped the little girl on the spot!
*Stupid girl, can’t you speak properly?*
But now, hearing the same words, Li Mochou felt a warmth in her heart.
She could tell that the little girl was genuinely afraid of never seeing her again.
“Get up!”
Li Mochou reached out to pull Hong Lingbo to her feet, found a table to sit at, and then asked how the other knew she was staying at this inn.
“It was a few beggars who brought me here!”
As Hong Lingbo spoke, she glanced toward the door.
Seeing this, Li Mochou immediately understood that Huang Rong had helped.
At that moment, a gurgling sound came from the little girl’s stomach.
Clearly, she was starving.
Li Mochou smiled and immediately ordered the inn’s waiter to prepare some food and wine.
“Mas… Master?”
Hong Lingbo’s eyes widened.
She had been Li Mochou’s disciple for about a month, and this was the first time she saw her master smile.
Seeing the surprise on the little girl’s face, Li Mochou sighed softly. Though she didn’t say anything, she resolved in her heart to treat this girl better from now on.
Shortly after, Wang Xuan and Huang Rong came downstairs. Upon seeing the little girl beside Li Mochou, they immediately knew her identity.
“Lingbo, these two are Young Hero Wang and Chief Huang. The people who brought you here are Chief Huang’s subordinates, and the reason your master is still alive to see you is largely thanks to Young Hero Wang’s rescue!”
As soon as Li Mochou finished speaking, Hong Lingbo sensibly knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Wang Xuan and Huang Rong.
“No need for that!”
Huang Rong quickly pulled the little girl to her feet.
At this time, Hong Lingbo was around sixteen years old. Perhaps due to malnutrition, she was short and very thin.
Huang Rong felt a slight pang of sympathy.
*Perhaps it’s because of my two daughters.*
*The hearts of parents under heaven are all the same!*
*If one day my two daughters were to wander the martial world?*
Huang Rong immediately felt a surge of fear.
*No matter what, I must protect my two daughters!*
While eating, Huang Rong noticed that Li Mochou kept glancing at her from time to time.
*Something’s off!*
*I clearly washed the stuff off my face!*
“What’s wrong?”
