"I am not clear on the details, but Ma Xiaoshuai's ntal thod of cultivation has always been quite unique. His sect is nad Cherishing Flowers Sect, which emphasizes passing through a sea of flowers without a single leaf sticking to the body. I suspect that the boy might have developed feelings, ford a ntal knot, and therefore encountered issues while practicing his cultivation technique," Xu Lei replied.
"To pass through a sea of flowers without a leaf sticking to the body, one must be not only heartless but also possess great willpower. I've t Ma Xiaoshuai before, and he isn't a heartless person," Ge Dongxu frowned upon hearing this.
In this age of declining law, the young Ge Dongxu could absolutely be considered a grandmaster-level figure. Hearing Xu Lei's response, he imdiately pointed out the critical aspect of this ntal thod.
"Director Ge is right," Xu Lei said, his eyes showing a trace of reverence.
"Whether that's the case or not, we won't know until we talk to Ma Xiaoshuai in detail. For now, let's first help him straighten out his True Qi," Ge Dongxu said.
As they spoke, the two had arrived in front of a villa.
On the villa's lawn, Ma Xiaoshuai was curled up there, trembling all over, sweating profusely, and looking extrely pained.
Around him stood six people, each looking anxious but not daring to touch him.
These six were mbers of the Special Ability Managent Bureau's Jiangnan office.
Ge Dongxu had visited the base before, and they all recognized him. Seeing him, they quickly stood at attention and respectfully called out, "Director Ge."
Ge Dongxu nodded in greeting, then walked over and crouched beside Ma Xiaoshuai, extending his hand to feel his wrist.
"It really is a bit chaotic. No wonder even Xu Lei's cultivation wasn't enough to suppress and sort it out," thought Ge Dongxu, who was of such a high level of cultivation that as soon as he grasped the wrist, he imdiately understood the situation inside Ma Xiaoshuai's body.
"Director Ge, how is Ma Xiaoshuai?" a man who had always been on good terms with Ma Xiaoshuai stepped forward and asked with concern.
"No problem, I'll sort it out for him," Ge Dongxu replied, and then placed his hand on Ma Xiaoshuai's Baihui acupoint.
Apart from Xu Lei, everyone else first showed relief, but then couldn't help showing slight worry.
None of them had seen Ge Dongxu's skills; they only knew that he was a director-level advisor. As for how formidable he truly was, they were all clueless, and now that even Xu Lei was helpless in Ma Xiaoshuai's situation, they naturally had doubts about Ge Dongxu's words given his youth and confident manner.
Ge Dongxu placed his hand on Ma Xiaoshuai's Baihui acupoint and started channeling his True Qi from the top of his head.
Ge Dongxu was at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, and his spiritual power was comparable to the Dragon Tiger Realm, which made him an exceedingly powerful existence.
The disordered True Qi in Ma Xiaoshuai, before the robust and mighty True Qi of Ge Dongxu, appeared as weak as a baby, incapable of making any significant impact.
The mont Ge Dongxu's True Qi was in motion and poured down, it swept through like a force unstoppable, quickly soothing the True Qi that churned wildly within Ma Xiaoshuai.
In total, it took less than a minute.
"Thank you, Director Ge!" Ma Xiaoshuai climbed up from the ground, bowed deeply to Ge Dongxu with a face full of awe.
Previously, he had only deduced a slight sense of Ge Dongxu's formidability from the incident with the Spanish rchant, Bravo, but this ti, as Ge Dongxu's True Qi poured down, grand like the heavens, it involuntarily spawned in him a sense of insignificance, like an ant. It was then that Ma Xiaoshuai truly comprehended the terrifying extent of Ge Dongxu's power.
Looking at Ma Xiaoshuai, even their leader seed helpless. With a press of Ge Dongxu's hand, not a minute had passed before Ma Xiaoshuai was restored to his original state. Aside from Xu Lei, everyone else wore a face of astonishnt. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have never believed that this Director Ge, who was even younger than them, could be so powerful.
"We are all part of Qin, and colleagues at that, there is no need for formalities," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.
"That may be the case, but if it weren't for Director Ge lending a hand this ti, I might have lost half of my life," Ma Xiaoshuai said gratefully.
"Alright, it's all good now, disperse, I have so matters to discuss with Ma Xiaoshuai," Ge Dongxu said with a smile, then gestured with his hand.
"Yes, sir!" The crowd snapped to attention and saluted. This ti, everyone's gaze towards Ge Dongxu was filled with reverence, a stark contrast to before.
Previously, although they respected Director Ge Dongxu, it was mainly because his official rank was higher than theirs. In their hearts, they did not truly believe Ge Dongxu was much more formidable than them. They always suspected that he had achieved his high position so young because he had connections within the governnt, but the scene they had just witnessed had completely dispelled this notion from their minds.
This Director Ge was much more formidable than they had imagined, and most likely, not even Director Fan Hong would be his match.
"When Director Ge asks you questions, answer truthfully without hiding anything," Xu Lei solemnly cautioned Ma Xiaoshuai as he walked up to him.
He had guessed what Ge Dongxu would ask about and was worried that Ma Xiaoshuai, harboring sect biases, would not divulge information freely, wasting this trendous opportunity.
In the entire Special Ability Managent Bureau, aside from Fan Hong, probably only Xu Lei knew just how terrifying Ge Dongxu was!
At Ge Dongxu's level, he wouldn't have any interest in their jealously guarded Cultivation thods.
"Boss, I understand," Ma Xiaoshuai nodded in response.
Seeing Ma Xiaoshuai's understanding, Xu Lei then left the villa to wait outside.
"Previously, Xu Lei ntioned to that the ntal thod your sect practices for cultivation is very peculiar. He said that it might have been a ntal block that led to your deviation. However, when I examined the True Qi in your body just now, the situation seems to be not that simple. Your True Qi is quite strong, already at the later stage of the Second Level of Qi Cultivation, but it is very tumultuous and impure. Even if you didn't have a ntal block and by chance managed to break through to the Qi Cultivation Third Layer, with the strengthening of your True Qi, due to its impurity, you would still inevitably face deviation if you continued to cultivate. Therefore, it's best for you to stop here," Xu Lei and the others left, and Ge Dongxu said with a serious look.
Upon hearing these words, Ma Xiaoshuai couldn't help but recall what Wang Qiang had said to him the night before, advising him to get married and have children like him, and not be obsessed with living a life untouched by the mud of a thousand flowers. His eyes dimd at the notion.
After so many years of cultivation, should it really end here?
Thinking this, Ma Xiaoshuai looked up at Ge Dongxu, and a sudden epiphany sparked within him. He knelt on one knee and said, "Director Ge, please guide out of this impasse!"
"Whether I can give guidance, I can't guarantee. But before we proceed, you'll likely need your sect's permission, as certain issues will definitely involve the secret Cultivation Techniques of the Cherishing Flowers Sect," Ge Dongxu replied.
Ge Dongxu did have a favorable impression of Ma Xiaoshuai and was not averse to giving so pointers.
"To be frank with Director Ge, now the Cherishing Flowers Sect consists only of myself. I am effectively the Sect Leader, so there is no need to seek permission from the sect," Ma Xiaoshuai replied with a wry smile.
