Liu Xuan enters the residence
You've come!
Zhang Xuezhou's combat system remains survival-oriented, since he can't change it even if he wanted to.
As he delved deeper into the techniques, Zhang Xuezhou felt that his method, once mastered, was not bad.
He might not be able to defeat others, but there were no cultivators of the same level who could defeat him either. If they fought to the death, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he would inevitably be the ultimate victor.
His current mindset is extremely Only Me; he has never been more confident in himself than he is now.
When Zhang Xuezhou glanced at Liu Xuan, whom Rong Tianding had brought into the mansion, he wasn't worried about having another treacherous person by his side. Instead, he was more interested in what Liu Xuan could bring.
"My lord, I've finally seen you!"
Liu Xuan bowed respectfully, a slightly unnatural, ingratiating expression appearing on his face.
Zhang Xuezhou understood perfectly that the other party rarely tried to please others, which was why he felt something was off.
He was perhaps an extremely special cultivator at the Sole Self Realm, only realizing the various changes he experienced in the new realm three months after breaking through.
When the Law Power was transferred to his body, Zhang Xuezhou's perception sharpened almost exponentially, and he was able to detect various differences from the past.
This is perhaps how Daojun once saw him.
"You've given me a technique, so I'll grant you guidance in your cultivation," Zhang Xuezhou said. "Coincidentally, there's a talented female swordswoman in my residence who can immediately guide your cultivation!"
Zhang Xuezhou sat in the main hall of the mansion and pointed to Wei Shao'er, who was watching the commotion not far away, leaving Wei Shao'er dumbfounded.
"Liu Xuan comes from a family with a long tradition of learning, but he lacks guidance in cultivation and the resources of medicinal pills. You won't regret treating him well!"
After pointing out the person to Liu Xuan, Zhang Xuezhou also signaled to Wei Shao'er to quickly agree to the matter, since he rarely did anything that would put him at a disadvantage.
Some things offer immediate benefits, while others offer only the potential for gain later.
Liu Xuan falls into the latter category, and Zhang Xuezhou isn't in a hurry to produce a result immediately.
"I struggle to cultivate myself, so I'm a little reluctant to take on students. You're so amazing, why don't you teach him?" Wei Shao'er exclaimed.
"He practices swordsmanship," Zhang Xuezhou said. "I'm not good at swordsmanship, so I can't teach him!"
"You're not good at swordsmanship, but you're not afraid of it at all," Wei Shao'er muttered.
"Liu Xuan taught me a Four Directions Locking Technique. This technique allows one to continue performing normally even after being injured. Do you know its power?" Zhang Xuezhou asked with a smile.
"Really? There's such a Technique Method as Technique Method in the world? Does it work? Have you tried it?"
Wei Shao'er exclaimed in surprise from a short distance away.
Hearing that there were benefits, she quickly took a few steps closer, clearly no longer resisting having a burden.
"I wouldn't recommend it if it weren't effective," Zhang Xuezhou said. "As long as this technique is used before the battle, it's an excellent way to save your life!"
Zhang Xuezhou only spoke of the advantages of the Four Gates Body Locking Technique, making the difference between having this technique and not having it in his speech, while remaining silent about its shortcomings. This delighted Wei Shao'er, who felt that practicing this Technique Method was truly like adding wings to a tiger.
When one reaches a high level of cultivation, one rarely learns any external Technique Method. Only those with extremely unique abilities who can keep up with the level are worth learning.
The four-door body-locking technique recommended by Zhang Xuezhou was clearly to Wei Shao'er's liking. Moreover, Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation level was a notch above Wei Shao'er's, so the technique that Zhang Xuezhou still recognized and used was obviously commensurate with his cultivation level.
"A grown man like you, still so hesitant and timid. Brother Dongfang has entrusted you to me, so I will treat you with utmost care. As long as you become my disciple, I will not hold back any of my sword techniques!"
Wei Shao'er has a very outgoing and carefree personality.
Zhang Xuezhou handed the man over, and Wei Shao'er kept pinching Liu Xuan's body, obviously trying to see if Liu Xuan's body was suitable for sword practice and whether he had the potential to succeed.
Liu Xuan, on the other hand, seemed extremely uncomfortable being gripped like that by Wei Shao'er, his face turning bright red.
Only after Wei Shao'er nodded in satisfaction and removed his hands from Liu Xuan's body did Liu Xuan breathe a sigh of relief.
"Liu Xuan, you can stay in the side room over there. Young Master Wei will often come to my residence, and you can seek his guidance in swordsmanship almost every day," Zhang Xuezhou said. "I can provide you with Qi and Blood Pill for the early stages of cultivation. Whether you can achieve great things in the future depends on yourself!"
Zhang Xuezhou made arrangements for Liu Xuan and also found some things for Wei Shao'er to do.
"Thank you for the reward, sir!"
Liu Xuan bowed and accepted.
Perhaps because he hadn't expected Zhang Xuezhou to make such an arrangement before coming, Liu Xuan was still somewhat unaccustomed to it. Zhang Xuezhou could even feel that Liu Xuan's voice trembled slightly.
He didn't act as a confidant or provide further guidance, as this was considered one of Zhang Xuezhou's better arrangements.
Compared to finding a skilled imperial guard for Liu Xuan in Shanglin Garden, probably no one would have more free time than Wei Shao'er.
Apart from her gender, everything about Wei Shao'er is Higher Vehicle.
"Master, I'm going to die! I've really turned into a kite!"
A peaceful atmosphere prevailed within the mansion.
After making simple arrangements for Liu Xuan, Liu Xuan diligently tidied his room, while Zhang Xuezhou temporarily ended his cultivation and prepared to work with Rong Tianding to find a carpenter to repair the floor and add a wooden bed to the house.
He was thinking about going out and taking the opportunity to look at potential marriage partners and make necessary preparations when he heard Huo Qubing's voice coming from a side room on the second floor.
The window was opened, and Huo Qubing, with ropes still tied to his legs, floated out.
Like swimming in water, Huo Qubing kept paddling and slowly flying forward.
Although he was shouting, Zhang Xuezhou had the antidote, so he was not panicked at all. Instead, he happily played with the abnormality of his body until he could no longer bear the hunger. Only then did he push open the window and float out of the window.
"I had completely forgotten about you!"
Zhang Xuezhou glanced at the piece of spirit silk jade lotus root still remaining in the water vat, and then thought about the Red Empyrean Sword, which was not conspicuously hidden among the clutter.
Although Huo Qubing suffered some misfortune, Zhang Xuezhou truly benefited.
The recovery of 20% of his Law Power still required Huo Qubing's assistance, so Zhang Xuezhou treated this little lucky star with great courtesy.
"Come on down, let's go out for something to eat?"
Hearing the rumbling sounds coming from Huo Qubing's stomach, Zhang Xuezhou pointed outside.
His previous residence didn't have so many people. Dou Shisan and Dou Shisi, who guarded the gate and courtyard, Grain Avoidance, so only Aqiao needed to eat.
By the time Zhang Xuezhou left the mansion, there was no one left to eat normally, and there were hardly any cooks preparing meals at the mansion.
He habitually neglected eating, and it wasn't until Huo Qubing's belly made a sound against his back that Zhang Xuezhou began to think about it.
"Master, am I supposed to float out like this?" Huo Qubing exclaimed.
"If I tie you to your mother, you can leave normally," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"Mother~"
"My dear child, you woke up just in time. You have a new junior brother today, so let him carry you on his back!"
Wei Shao'er was neither a virtuous wife and loving mother, nor was she kind-hearted.
Knowing that Huo Qubing would not die, she was not worried at all. Liu Xuan, who had not yet become a disciple, was used as a laborer by her to save herself from carrying the child around.
However, Wei Shao'er was also curious about what heavenly materials and earthly treasures Huo Qubing had consumed, that allowed him to float in the air without having practiced any flying Technique Method.
Liu Xuan took the rope and felt the buoyancy of Huo Qubing's body. A look of disbelief flashed in his eyes. He couldn't understand why these people were so oblivious to what was happening in front of them and were giving top-grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures to a child.
