"Congratulations, host, for killing the three-star villain Le Rushen and acquiring the Martial Arts Inheritance: "Heavenly chanism Divination Skill" (three stars) and "Boundless Dreams" (pitfall) (three stars)."
"The Heavenly chanism Divination Skill" uses the Dao of calculation to find the weaknesses in an opponent’s Martial Arts, thus breaking through them. It’s referred to as Martial Arts, but in reality, it is an application of Yi Skill.
Le Rushen’s inheritance from the Heavenly chanic Sect was far inferior to the Yin Yang Technique of the Yin Yang Family, but his foundational knowledge in Yi Skill could save Qing Yu a great deal of ti, significantly advancing his "Astrology Law" and "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Skill."
The other technique marked as a "pitfall," "Boundless Dreams," isn’t entirely a trap. After all, Le Rushen was intelligent enough not to cultivate sothing that was obviously deadly.
In fact, it was only at the last phase of "Yin Yang Thunder" that Le Rushen’s master, Heavenly chanic Twenty-Five, tampered with the technique. As you know, thunder, being the pivot of Yin and Yang, commands the fundantal forces of all things. Without proper control, thunder is not so easily harnessed.
Le Rushen perished because of the imnse force of thunder generated during the ultimate phase of "Boundless Dreams."
While Qing Yu decided against cultivating this Martial Arts, he could learn from its Yin Yang operation and creation of thunder. Thus, achieving the "Thunder" in the Eight Diagrams beca feasible, bringing him a step closer to "Four Symbols Produce Eight Trigrams."
It’s fair to say, defeating Le Rushen didn’t require much effort, but the help gained from him was still imnse.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Qing Yu placed a hand over his face, his facial muscles swiftly shifting, and soon ng De’s face appeared.
At that mont, a striking figure dressed in white palace attire sliced through the moonless night sky. With her white cloud-like boots gently tapping, she stood atop the roof nearby.
"Miss, what brings you to my residence in the dead of night?" Qing Yu glanced up slightly, gazing at the uninvited figure.
"Bang—"
Just then, the second wave of fireworks slowly rose, bursting into brilliant colors in the air, illuminating the fair complexion of the visitor.
Her lips slightly raised, she slowly spoke with a cold voice, "I ca to find you, Gong Ziyu."
The Turtle Mirror revealed that her heart was filled with certainty. Qing Yu didn’t know how she had found him, but her finding him proved the threat she posed.
"How did you find ?"
Qing Yu restrained his previously casual smile, still looking up, but this highly capable woman felt an illusion, sensing a pair of eyes looking down on her from a high place.
"Speak up, and I might spare your life, Yun Wuyue."
No, it wasn’t an illusion. Yun Wuyue was sure that, through so Divine Intent, a huge figure faintly erged behind him.
She would die, without a doubt, if it ca to a fight.
Yun Wuyue’s internal alarms were stronger than ever, but fortunately, her visit wasn’t ant to antagonize him.
After all, Gong Ziyu’s victory over four Divine Origin Realm masters, including Qingxu, had spread throughout the region over the last twenty-odd days. Yun Wuyue knew before even eting him that he was capable of killing her.
"The way I found you is simple, you revealed during the Heavenly Calculation Inheritance that you are deaf, and among the exceptional youths of today, there’s only one other who’s also deaf..."
Yun Wuyue slowly revealed how she found out Gong Ziyu’s whereabouts, "That’s you, the Mountain River Academy student ng De, who went deaf during the Literary Arena competition."
"That doesn’t prove anything," said Qing Yu noncommittally.
Being exceptional, ng De, capable of practicing "Vast Righteous Qi" at a young age, is certainly notable. But compared to Gong Ziyu, he’s far behind. If ng De were Gong Ziyu, how could he have gone deaf in the Literary Arena? With Gong Ziyu’s strength, how could he possibly beco deaf in such a competition?
People like Qingxu, whom Gong Ziyu defeated, would cry.
"Of course, there’s more," continued Yun Wuyue, "you’re also aware of the origin of my Yin Demon Sect. Behind nearly seven or eight out of every ten brothels in the world, there lie people from my Yin Demon Sect, making our intelligence network among the best.
After ng De left the Mountain River Academy to seek famous physicians, Gong Ziyu appeared. Recently, as Gong Ziyu started appearing more frequently, ng De also made appearances.
Moreover, I’ve sent people to search for him from the Hundred Herbs Pavilion in the south to Doctor Evil’s hut in the north—even the most elusive and unconventional Demon Dan has been approached. The only place left is the Imperial Physician in the Imperial Palace of Daqian, and there’s been no trace of ng De.
Tell , why is a man seeking dical treatnt nowhere to be found near any famous physician? Even if they refuse to treat him, he should at least try."
With these few words, she revealed several of Qing Yu’s oversights. As Gong Ziyu’s reputation grew, so did the attention paid to him. If he hadn’t previously concealed his deafness well, people would have co knocking to verify it long ago.
’What a pity, the last ti during the Heavenly Calculation Inheritance, his lack of hearing was unintentionally revealed. It seems ng De’s identity is no longer usable,’ Qing Yu thought to himself.
The identity of ng De had long been considered disposable, particularly since it originated from the Six Gates. Only on Laba Festival did he use it again, out of a desire to probe Feng Tianming’s intentions.
Now, with Yun Wuyue pointing out how many slips he had made without realizing, he knew he could no longer hold on to this identity.
"Very well," Qing Yu thought thousands of thoughts internally, but his exterior remained calm as he spoke, "Since you have shown such sincerity, go ahead and state your purpose."
"Hmm?"
Surprise flickered briefly across Yun Wuyue’s cool, distant face, like the unseen moon tonight, "You knew I ca for a purpose?"
"If not for a purpose, would you have co seeking vengeance? If so, you’d need more than just yourself," Qing Yu replied leisurely.
This was also why Qing Yu, upon first seeing Yun Wuyue, still had the audacity to threaten her. If she had co to kill him, one person like her wouldn’t suffice, even though she had recently advanced to the Divine Origin Realm.
Additionally, the ’Turtle Mirror’ showed no hostility from her.
Since she wasn’t there to seek revenge, there was a business to discuss, and the business of Gong Ziyu, needless to say, was always about killing.
"Speak up, who do you want dead, and what’s the price?" Qing Yu asked.
Yun Wuyue’s expression returned to its usual cold detachnt, as if displaying the aloofness of tonight’s invisible moon, "Isn’t helping you hide your identity enough?"
"Not enough."
"I found this place using the intelligence network of my Sect in the Divine Capital, an action that cannot be concealed from that person."
