If it were a normal doctor, Ye Xingge would definitely think it was a joke, but Great Beauty was really capable of doing such a thing, so he quickly raised his hand:
"No, sister, you really believe me that much?!"
Cloud and Rain Tower said earnestly:
There are countless martial arts techniques in this world, and some of these divine skills and secret manuals are regarded by martial arts practitioners as inviolable laws.
"But in reality, these are all paths that our predecessors explored step by step."
"These things come partly from accumulation, but more importantly from innate 'comprehension.' Blindly following authority will never get you further than those who came before you, so many times you still have to trust your own judgment."
"Do you think there's a problem with me sticking my needle in this spot right now?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xingge studied the matter carefully for a moment longer:
"Hmm... I think it should be fine."
Cloud and Rain Tower's voice was very serious. "Don't speculate, make sure."
Upon seeing this, Ye Xingge carefully reviewed and studied the situation again, and after a long while, he responded:
"Okay, go ahead and do it."
Upon seeing this, Cloud and Rain Tower nodded slightly, a hint of approval on his face.
"You have good comprehension and courage. However, your knowledge is too superficial. If you explore more advanced techniques in the future, your progress will be very rapid."
Ye Xingge frowned when he saw that the gate to the capital had not been erected.
Did I point out the wrong thing?
Cloud and Rain Tower inserted the needles again, then shook his head and said:
"That's right, but following your line of thinking, sealing the meridians might require more than a hundred needles. However, being able to determine where to insert the needles without knowing anything about the patient's condition is already quite impressive. Having a method and having no way to do something are two different things."
"Oh..."
Ye Xingge understood the meaning and asked again:
How many injections are normally needed?
"Seven needles."
"See..."
Ye Xingge was somewhat skeptical of this statement.
After all, martial arts emphasizes simplicity in its principles!
The normal method only requires seven stitches, but he needs more than a hundred.
If this were a method, it would be due to his luck. He would need to access over a hundred acupoints, while a normal expert could achieve the same effect by accessing only seven acupoints.
In short, even if they are of equal skill, the time it takes him to make one move is enough for his opponent to kill him ten times over!
"In that case, I really do have a lot to learn."
"..."
Cloud and Rain Tower maintained a calm expression, but in reality, he was very satisfied with Ye Xingge's performance.
After all, she was using the methods of the First Rank demon Yijia to seal away immortal techniques of the same level.
Most mediocre people can't even understand it, let alone figure out the method or have the courage to implement it.
However, arrogance is a major taboo in the martial arts world, and the young man's sneak attack just now made Cloud and Rain Tower feel somewhat uncomfortable speaking to him. After finishing the acupuncture, the silver needles were removed one by one:
"This method cannot last long. If your skill increases too much, you will have to start over."
"And the strange thing on your back is somewhat related to the Filth-Severing Whip, um... it's that the Blissful Illusory Body will exhibit unusual symptoms. If you notice anything amiss in the future, be sure to let me know immediately."
Ye Xingge didn't know much about the Blissful Illusory Body before, so he nodded and asked:
"Can't I give myself injections?"
Ye Xingge can administer acupuncture himself, so Cloud and Rain Tower would send Great Yu'er instead of coming all this way to suffer a great loss. At this moment, he said seriously, "Knowing and doing are two different things. Without extraordinary experience, it's easy to make mistakes."
"Oh..."
Ye Xingge nodded, then sat up and leaned closer to her luscious red lips:
"That's natural. And what about the reward I mentioned earlier..."
Cloud and Rain Tower was First Rank formidable old demon, and this time he had clearly learned his lesson. Sensing something was amiss, he quickly stood up, his brows furrowing slightly.
Upon realizing the assessment wasn't over, Ye Xingge quickly lay back down, adopting a refined and gentlemanly demeanor.
"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Yu'er."
Cloud and Rain Tower secretly breathed a sigh of relief and placed the needle case on the dressing table.
"You rest for a bit, I'll go out and check the situation."
"OK!"
Not long after.
Hongyu regained control of her body, opened her eyes under the eaves, glanced around, and seeing that everything at the port was normal, asked:
"Master, how is the situation?"
Then Cloud and Rain Tower's voice came to my ears, his tone slightly calmer than before:
"It's alright. Take good care of this child. In the future, let him learn more about inner sect techniques. Teach him what he doesn't understand."
Hearing this tone, Hongyu knew that the ancestor was very satisfied. She immediately inquired about what had just happened to avoid giving herself away.
Cloud and Rain Tower, of course, wouldn't hide anything from the protector, and recounted all the details of what had just happened, including how the boy had used a poem to fool the mother and daughter. However, he didn't reveal the content, as such a thing was too damaging, and he was worried that Yu'er would be distraught if she discovered it wasn't written by her.
Seeing that her master clearly appreciated her words, Hongyu felt honored. After hanging up, she coughed lightly, regained her composure as a martial arts master, and slowly walked to the guest room on the second floor.
Squeak~
In the guest room, Ye Xingge lay on the pillows with his eyes closed, resting. He turned his head and saw Great Beauty, and raised an eyebrow slightly:
"Is the assessment over?"
"Hmm~"
Hongyu was very satisfied and sat down by the bed:
"Good performance, you've earned a promotion to Gold Medal Henchman of the Mountains and Rivers Association."
"Tch~"
Seeing that Great Beauty had returned to normal, Ye Xingge moved a few steps closer:
"You're not going to renege on the promised reward, are you?"
Hongyu's smile froze. She glanced at Ye Xingge's broad chest, then thought for a moment and pinched his pectoral muscles.
"Is that enough?"
Ye Xingge spread his hands:
"How can this be? I racked my brains just now..."
"Okay!"
Hongyu knew it wouldn't be that simple, and her eyes darted around the chest and abs muscles, her cheeks flushed.
"Then where should I touch?"
Ye Xingge pulled Great Beauty over:
"Now let's switch roles. I'm letting you benefit, so I'll definitely be rich and generous..."
As he spoke, he took her hand and placed it on her well-defined abdominal muscles.
Wow°
Hongyu was actually a little embarrassed, but touching a man was definitely more acceptable than touching her. For the time being, she was still darting around and touching him for fun, but after scanning him a little, she felt a little sorry for him.
After all, Ye Xingge had had a tough time these past few days. He wasn't wearing a shirt, and two wounds were visible on his chest, inflicted by Yang Tuyan and Gold-Chasing Gentleman. He also had wounds on his shoulders and back. Although the medicine from the Heaven-Observing Pavilion was very good and wouldn't leave scars, it had only been a few days since the wounds were completely healed, and at first glance, he looked like he was covered in battle scars.
As a protector of the Dao, Hongyu couldn't help but feel ashamed and heartbroken upon seeing this scene.
However, before she could feel ashamed for long, she discovered that this lecherous man had pulled her hand near her V-line...
When Hongyu touched the burning prospect of the future, she was caught off guard and her shoulders trembled. Her face turned visibly red to the roots of her neck, and she quickly withdrew her hand.
"I won't touch that..."
Ye Xingge said gently, "I'm actually embarrassed too, but since Sister Yu'er wants to touch me, I can only grit my teeth and endure it..."
"Tch~ Who wants to touch me? Go ahead and..."
Hongyu panicked, twisting and turning trying to dodge, but this lecherous scoundrel was like a vixen, determined to give in!
The image of that slut flashed through her mind, naturally bringing to mind her aggressive advances and her unwavering ability to give away her promises... Hongyu blinked, perhaps remembering that she hadn't even had the first bite of hotpot last night. She abruptly stopped trying to pull her hand away, instead closing her eyes, tensing her entire body, and making a disgusted face, as if to say, "Sister, I didn't touch you willingly, you forced me to..."
After holding back for a while, and finding that this lecherous fellow hadn't gone any further, I became genuinely curious and decided to experience it for myself.
Seeing Great Beauty's face turn red, Ye Xingge couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth and lean closer again.
Smack
Hongyu's shoulders twitched slightly as her hand was subtly guided to improve blood circulation. She pretended not to notice, but after a moment, she turned her head and put on a serious face. "Just this once!"
Ye Xingge shrugged slightly:
"Are you kidding me? If my Great Yu'er gets a good deal, do you think I'd be stingy? Okay, okay, I'm the one getting the good deal. I'll make you Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, Mapo Tofu, and Stir-fried Pork Kidneys when I get back..."
"I'm not a foodie!"
Hongyu's eyes darted around restlessly. After a moment, she asked again:
"Is it done?"
Ye Xingge struck a heroic pose:
"I promised you half an hour to play, and we've only just gotten to where we are! Do you think I'm stingy?"
"..."
Hongyu felt she had probably fallen into a trap, but since she had already touched him, she couldn't escape before the time was up, so she thought she should finish quickly.
It turned out that the Blissful Incarnation was so domineering that she couldn't even scratch it...
Just as Hongyu's heart was fluttering like a deer, shyly and playfully teasing him, this lecherous man suddenly fixed his gaze on the window:
"By the way, what about the remaining assassins? We can't let one or two escape..."
"Ha?!"
Hongyu opened her mouth, stunned by this enthusiasm.
Is killing someone more fun than bullying your cultivation partner?
No wonder Fate-Robbing Saber slid to his knees on the spot...
But it's a good thing that Ye Xingge has this intention, and she can't say it's wrong. After thinking for a moment, she said:
"You've made too much of a commotion today. Even a smart assassin wouldn't dare show their face again. How about we stop here? I'll go back and gather more information..." "Sigh, I promised to let you spy for half an hour, how could I go back on my word..."
"Tch~ How can you be so shameless?"
"Heh..."
Shasha~
Outside the window, the rain pattered down. A man and a woman leaned against each other on the bedside table. One had a sweet smile, while the other made a disgusted face. Although it looked like a forced encounter, it had a unique charm...
