"That's right, this illness is very troubleso. There are so forceful thods, but they all have so aftereffects. It's better for you to replace rest with cultivation practice—anyway, this doesn't affect your body or spirit." Xiaoyao didn't insist either.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. While I'm still here, I'll help you get more books from the Wei family collection, but you need to spend more ti chatting with ." Wang Yanyu said with a smile.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Queen!" Xiaoyao imdiately replied.
"Mm mm, very good. This is my good subject. How about you co with ? I can take you to see even more books." Wang Yanyu said.
"No, I still have other things to do. Besides, I don't like following others—I still prefer being a little servant." Xiaoyao shook his head and refused. Following Wang Yanyu would definitely have benefits, but balancing it out, these benefits weren't very many. Subtracting the accompanying troubles, it would be a losing proposition.
How good Xiaoyao had it now—he could use the Xuanwu Family's resources to create benefits for himself. But if he followed Wang Yanyu, he would be exclusive property, watched over. How could he utilize resources then?
"I knew you wouldn't agree. You're really a very interesting person. I don't know what you're trying to do... forget it, I won't think so much about it. Let's continue chatting. I discovered a very interesting book today..."
Wang Yanyu entered casual chat mode again, and Xiaoyao habitually entered companion chat mode. What he didn't expect was that Wang Yanyu's chat this ti would actually be related to him.
"This book is called 'Youth's Journey,' written by soone called Smile..."
...
"..."
No way, isn't this my book? I originally wanted to use this book to find soone, but after all this ti, the book beca popular, but there's still no information about that person.
It seems the woman who appeared in that small mountain village wasn't very famous—she might not be from the Azure Dragon Empire. It looks like I still need to continue waiting. Information will co slowly.
There's no rush with this matter either. Over twenty years have already passed. If I'm hasty, people might discover I ca here, which could cause unnecessary trouble.
So Xiaoyao planned to continue this way—after training those won to beco peerless masters who could look down upon the world, then he could openly search.
This ti probably wouldn't be too long...
"This book is written quite well..." Xiaoyao replied casually.
"Yes, it's very good. But what I found interesting was the paintings in this book—I've seen that woman!" Wang Yanyu said.
Hm? She said she'd seen the woman in it, wait...
Xiaoyao now truly had that feeling of "searching high and low only to find it effortlessly"...
"What? You've seen her?" Xiaoyao paused, looking at Wang Yanyu in surprise.
"Yes, I have. What's wrong? Why such a big reaction?" Wang Yanyu looked at Xiaoyao, seeming to want to see sothing from him.
"I've also read this book. The woman in it is very beautiful—I like her." Xiaoyao smiled, with an expression like 'that's my goddess, my dream girl.'
If that was the case, then this situation could be explained, and his surprise wouldn't be anything unusual!
"Is there really such a person?" Xiaoyao asked another question, with an expression like he really wanted to know.
"I don't know either!" Wang Yanyu shook her head.
"Your Majesty the Queen, are you being deliberately mysterious?" Xiaoyao asked. You said you'd seen her—how can you say you don't know?
"No, I'm not being mysterious. I really don't know if such a person actually exists. I also saw her in a painting." Wang Yanyu shook her head.
"A painting?" Xiaoyao had a bit of a headache. Could this painting be one he had drawn? Then this ti it wouldn't be "searching high and low only to find it effortlessly" but rather "drawing water with a bamboo basket—all in vain"!
"Yes, a painting. It should have been two years ago when I was staying at the Tianyuan Qi family. I saw it in a room—it seed to belong to one of the Qi family's uncles." Wang Yanyu recalled. If not for her photographic mory, she probably wouldn't rember this incident.
Two years ago? That ans this wasn't painted by —so it's not drawing water in vain.
"Didn't you ask about it?" Xiaoyao asked.
"What would I ask about? It wasn't my business. You seem very concerned about this matter—do you have so ulterior motive?" Wang Yanyu looked at Xiaoyao with eyes that seed to want to see right through him.
Xiaoyao frowned slightly and said: "Yes, I do have a purpose. I want to find this woman!"
Wang Yanyu looked at Xiaoyao with so surprise and said: "I thought you'd continue making excuses to , but you actually admitted it! Give a reason!"
Xiaoyao understood that Wang Yanyu must have sensed sothing, which was why he directly admitted it. First, he needed to clarify one point—he wasn't afraid of being discovered about this matter, he just didn't want to cause trouble.
But if he really encountered trouble, he would face it and solve it!
At the sa ti, he understood and believed that Wang Yanyu wouldn't leak this matter. Even if he told her the whole story, she wouldn't tell anyone. She understood him, and he understood her equally.
"I want to find her to investigate sothing, but I can't be discovered, so I published that book, hoping soone would reveal information about her." Xiaoyao answered. He revealed that he had published the book without hiding it, but he still didn't say why he was looking for her.
He wouldn't casually reveal this matter. Even knowing the other party wouldn't tell others, there was no need to explain this!
"This book was actually written by you? This seems sowhat unlikely—it's completely different from your speaking style, like two different people. And this book has deep literary foundation, while yours... if you're serious about it, you could probably do it." Wang Yanyu frowned slightly, thinking of Xiaoyao's knowledge—it wasn't impossible.
When she had just ntioned this book, it was actually just by chance. She found the book interesting and wanted to discuss it with Xiaoyao, but discovered his reaction was sowhat unusual.
Although Xiaoyao only showed a little bit, others might not find it strange, but she understood there was definitely a problem. She had chatted with Xiaoyao for so many days, almost several hours every day, and she had never seen him show such a surprised expression about anything. Even when she revealed shocking information, he had an attitude of "what does this have to do with ."
Especially when she had fallen in front of him, he could ignore her and pass by. Well, this behavior could show that even if the sky fell, he wouldn't be nervous.
Now Xiaoyao showed that expression—if she didn't think there was a problem, then she had a problem!
But she hadn't expected Xiaoyao to actually be the author of this book. At the sa ti, he published this book to find the person in it—this was truly an unprecedented thod. She didn't know how he thought of it.
With the ti to write a book, wouldn't it be better to do sothing practical? Wait, he didn't seem like soone who liked wasting ti. Could it be this book didn't consu much of his ti at all?
If that was really the case, then how many literati would beat their heads and cry...
"How long did you write for?"
"About three days. If I wasn't busy with work, two days would have been enough."
"..."
What? It was written during spare ti? Those people wouldn't just beat their heads and cry—they'd go find a rope and hang themselves.
As for other matters, Wang Yanyu didn't ask anymore—she didn't ask why he was looking for this person or who she was. This wasn't what she wanted to know. She understood that Xiaoyao had his reasons, and that was enough.
"That uncle is the father of a young lady I t there. She pulled in to look, which is how I saw it. But I don't know who the painting depicts—I never asked. I can tell you this young lady is called Qi Shujun!" Wang Yanyu told Xiaoyao what she knew. She didn't ntion the father's na simply because she didn't know it.
However, with the current clues, it didn't matter whether she knew the father's na or not—it could all be investigated. Originally, just knowing about the Tianyuan Qi family would have been enough, just a matter of ti. Now knowing Qi Shujun's na made it even simpler.
"I understand. I'll go to Tianyuan to take a look in a while." Xiaoyao nodded lightly. He didn't plan to go imdiately but would wait until he finished everything here and made complete preparations.
It was precisely because of Xiaoyao's expression and deanor that Wang Yanyu misunderstood, thinking this matter wasn't very important. She definitely couldn't imagine Xiaoyao was going to search for his origins.
Such a calm expression, saying he would go in a while—anyone would think this matter wasn't important, even Wang Yanyu, who understood Xiaoyao relatively well, felt this matter wasn't important.
It was probably just sothing Xiaoyao needed to do. Everyone had many things to do—so things had to be done but weren't necessarily important!!
"Today I want to talk about a martial art. This martial art is very interesting—it looks very poetic and artistic. It was created by a predecessor who entered martial arts through literature..." Wang Yanyu began her daily routine of telling Xiaoyao one or two martial arts.
Xiaoyao was very interested in this special type of martial art, which could give him many new insights. These insights weren't just in martial arts but in other areas too, because this type of martial art contained other elents with many aspects worth borrowing.
While Xiaoyao discussed with Wang Yanyu, his internal energy was also constantly circulating, cultivating the Divine Farr's Art. From this, one could see he wasn't just multitasking—he could at least handle three things at once.
Recently, Xiaoyao discovered his cultivation progress seed to have accelerated sowhat. He didn't know what the situation was—neither the cultivation thod nor the environnt had changed, but cultivation progress was accelerating, getting faster and faster. It had already returned to the level on the Divine Martial Continent, with a trend of continued increase.
