AST 1336 – Qing Shui’s Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling, Little Wuwu, Two Ladies Out From Seclusion

He should be able to refine Yang Pellets in the short term. This was a variant. Even if he wouldn’t be able to get tremendous benefits from Yang Pellets in the short term, there were still family and friends around him. As long as they would hit the requirement to be able to take the Yang Pellets, their abilities could increase tremendously.

During this period of time, Qing Shui was also getting stronger. However, these things weren’t the most important. What that was important was for his power to be stabilized. Furthermore, Qing Shui had used the Life and Death Needles to reinforce himself, bringing up the level of his Nine Yang Golden Body.

His Nine Yang Golden Body was already at the great perfection stage. He didn’t know if it could be brought up to a higher level. The Violet Golden Blood Thread in his bloodstream was now twice as thick as before. The power in his bloodstream had also caused Qing Shui’s abilities to be increased by a lot more. However, what he had gained the most was the explosive damaging power he could unleash.

Today, Qing Shui felt that he wanted to go back to the Western Oxhe Continent to take a look. After all, it had been a long while since he went back to see the Eldest Princess and the others.

Qing Shui told Soulsearch about it. Right now, despite only being under Qing Shui’s guidance for a few months, Soulsearch’s medical skills were no longer something which his previous level could be compared to. Of course, the reason he could improve so quickly was also because his Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling technique was so powerful.

Soulsearch taught the Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling technique to Qing Shui. At first, Qing Shui didn’t want to learn it, but he was unable to reject Soulsearch’s kind intentions. A person wouldn’t feel troubled from being equipped with too many skills. Moreover, the Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling technique could extend a person’s lifespan by three days. To Qing Shui, many things could change within three days.

Of course, when Qing Shui learned the Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling technique, he made a shocking discovery that it wasn’t as simple as what Soulsearch had told him. Diagnosis and extending one’s lifespan by three days was merely but the elementary phase.

It could be because Soulsearch had been doing it all this while but Qing Shui liked to study and try new things. It was only after experimenting that he discovered some other abilities that came with the Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling. For example, when the Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling technique was combined with the Soul Search and the Qi of the Ancient Strengthening Technique, it could help one break through barriers. It was much stronger than just using the s.h.i.+eld Attack by itself. Furthermore, there wasn’t the possibility of one experiencing Qi Deviation.

When combined with Qing Shui’s Force of Rebirth, it could awaken some of the body’s vitality and from there, increase one’s lifespan.

However, all these weren’t what made Qing Shui the most astonished. He was more astonished that if used it with a hint of force of the Heavenly Dao, the effect would be even stronger. Ever since he stepped into Heavenly Dao, Qing Shui would only think of using up this bit of power in his battles. He hadn’t expected that when used in other areas, the effectiveness would be many times stronger.

Tempering the body… Qing Shui spent the most time on this every day. With the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant and the nameless Duo Cultivation Technique, he needed to make sure that his foundations were incessantly being reinforced. Only then would he be able to absorb even more abilities.

The effectiveness was still not bad and he was quite satisfied with his current foundations. The Ancient Strengthening Technique itself was a body tempering technique in the first place and his Nine Yang Golden Body had reached the great perfection stage. He hoped that when the time comes the Yang Pellet would be able to bring him great benefits.

When Soulsearch heard that Qing Shui was going to leave, he didn’t find it strange. During this period of time, Qing Shui would leave for eight to ten days every month and thus he was already used to it.

When he teleported back, Yehuang Guwu was reading a book and sitting down lazily on a soft couch. She looked so quiet and intelligent, just like a person from a painting. When she turned and saw Qing Shui who had come up to her, she said, “You’re back!”

“What are you looking at so seriously?” Qing Shui sat down next to her, wrapped his arm around her slender waist and sat down.

“It’s nothing. Oh right, Ruyan and Xuan`er have already come out from their seclusion,” Yehuang Guwu closed up the book and said, smiling.

“Oh, they’re out? How are they?” Qing Shui asked in great surprise.

“Not bad. They’ve gotten a lot stronger. But if you can help them, they should be able to undergo a tremendous improvement.” Yehuang Guwu smiled and pushed Qing Shui down onto the soft couch, pressing down her wonderful figure onto Qing Shui’s body. Qing Shui immediately felt as if his blood was boiling.

“Demoness!”

Qing Shui didn’t hold back and kissed her s.e.xy lips while his hands roamed about on her twin peaks. Yehuang Guwu immediately reacted back to Qing Shui, her tender little tongue entangling with Qing Shui’s.

It had been two months since the previous misunderstanding. Qing Shui had came back twice during this period of time but they didn’t act like before. However, they would still touch and kiss each other. Qing Shui had wanted to tell her that they could do it but for some reason, he subconsciously held back this thought.

Wait a little longer. Good things are worth waiting for.

He buried his head into her well-rounded twin peaks through her clothes, breathing in her fragrance greedily. Yehuang Guwu looked at Qing Shui and her face became slightly downcast a.

“Martial Aunt, remember what I told you. You should know about your physique. I have the Nine Yang Physique. Although we can do it now, please wait a little longer. For example, when I reach the False G.o.d realm. When that happens, I’ll definitely be able to have s.e.x with you without any trouble.” Qing Shui knew that he should give her some hope and it was a very large one.

Hearing Qing Shui’s words, Yehuang Guwu’s eyes lit up. She didn’t doubt what Qing Shui said. Moreover, her body was very sensitive. In their previous misunderstanding, she got to know that Qing Shui’s physique was unique and the heat that came from his body made her feel very comfortable. That was a lethal attraction. It was like the attraction between the north and south poles of magnets.

It was also due to this reason that when Yehuang Guwu first saw Qing Shui, she did things which made Qing Shui feel as if she was very loose. Her physique had caused her to experience an instinctive feeling towards Qing Shui’s physique. However, she still didn’t dare to try for fear of bringing harm to Qing Shui. Therefore, no matter what Qing Shui could say, she wouldn’t believe it.

However, she had a dream, hoping that one day, she could really become his. She felt that the chances were very low. Even if his physique wasn’t bad, she knew how terrifying her own physique was.

When she heard what Qing Shui said today, she felt that she could trust it. If Qing Shui could really attain a breakthrough to the False G.o.d level, then it’d definitely be possible. Thinking back, she felt that her judgment back then had really been very good. It was because she felt that Qing Shui would become a False G.o.d cultivator. He just needed time. At the very least, there was some hope in this.

“Then it’s a promise. When you become a False G.o.d cultivator, we’ll do it…” Yehuang Guwu said this, her head lowered.

“Do what? Little Wuwu.” Qing Shui grinned evilly as he looked at this extremely mature lady.

Yehuang Guwu was shocked by Qing Shui’s weirdly intimate nickname. It wasn’t because she felt that it was very mushy, nor was it because she was embarra.s.sed. She felt a sort of happiness. She hadn’t expected for there to be a day when a young man would call her Little Wuwu so intimately. A slight flush appeared on her face as she looked blissfully at Qing Shui, “Qing Shui, I’m really very happy today.”

“In the future, you’ll always be happy. I promise to make you the most blissful lady.”

“I believe in you!”

“Martial Aunt…”

“I don’t like you calling me that.” Yehuang Guwu wrapped her arms around Yehuang Guwu’s neck and said coquettishly.

“Little Wuwu…”

“Too mushy. You can only call me that when there’s only the two of us.”

“There’s only the two of us here now.”

“Mmmm!”

“The people from Yehuang Clan have come to look for me.” Qing Shui planned to tell this to Yehuang Guwu.

“Mmm, it’s expected for them to look for you. If you really can’t reject them, then you can work together with them. Just don’t put in too much effort and let them enjoy it a little bit longer,” Yehuang Guwu looked at Qing Shui calmly and said. She didn’t want Qing Shui to be troubled. After all, Yehuang Clan wasn’t an existence he could afford to go up against at this moment.

“I’m not working with them yet. I got them to do me a favor and I’ll only work with them if they manage to get it done. Since they want us to work together, they must show some sincerity. Therefore, they have no choice but to agree. Moreover, there’s still you. It won’t be long before you’ll be able to fight against Yehuang Clan. When the time comes, I’ll back you up,” Qing Shui said, at ease.

“It’ll probably still take a very long time. Thankfully there’s the Tiger Form. If I achieve a higher level in this technique, with my increase in abilities, I should be able to just manage to be on the same standing as the Yehuang Clan.” Yehuang Guwu knew that it wasn’t that easy to go against a Peak Martial Emperor. Moreover, there was still a False G.o.d existence in the Yehuang Clan. Although the person was only an Early False G.o.d, it was still a False G.o.d.

False G.o.ds were like G.o.ds in the mortal world. It was a qualitative difference. It was said that False G.o.d cultivators would all have some powerful Heavenly Technique. A False G.o.d with a strength of one million suns could kill over 100 Peak Martial Emperors with a strength of 500,000 suns. This was the power of Heavenly Technique. For example, Heavenly Technique could allow one’s defense and attack to increase by a lot for a short period of time. It could allow one to borrow the power of the heaven and earth to unleash some terrifying attacks. Some False G.o.d cultivators could instantly call forth dark clouds in the sky, summon lightning and thunder and get those thunderbolts to collectively attack toward one particular location…

False G.o.d cultivators could truly overturn rivers and oceans, condense the air and create mountains. To them, flattening a great mountain was also nothing difficult…

If Yehuang Guwu wished to fight against Yehuang Clan, then she must at least reach Peak Martial Emperor. That would allow her to rely on the mutated Tiger Form to fight against an Early False G.o.d cultivator. However, it wasn’t that easy for one to make improvements and achievements in martial arts. Ten years or even decades were extremely short duration for cultivation. A powerful clan like the Yehuang Clan wasn’t that easy to eradicate.

Therefore, Yehuang Guwu was very worried. However, all in all, she was still very happy. Things had been progressing in the best possible way and she should be content. Compared to before, her hopes had been risen by many times more.

…

By the time Qing Shui met up with Tantai Xuan and Yu Ruyan, it was already the next day. These two ladies went through a tremendous change in the charm which they exuded. It was an aura of a powerful expert and had a slightly sharp feeling. Qing Shui knew that this was due to the fact that they had yet to master their newly gained power. It would all be fine after some time. When the time came, they would experience a slight change in the charm they exuded and wouldn’t let others feel as if they were making a showy display of their powers.

Having not met Qing Shui for several months, Yu Ruyan ran up to him and hugged him tightly. Even Qing Shui could sense her yearning for him. He missed Yu Ruyan a lot as well and only let go of her after a short while had pa.s.sed. Yu Ruyan smiled and walked over to Tantai Xuan, looked at her and said, “Do you want to hug him as well? He belongs to you now too.”

“I don’t care for that!” After all, Tantai Xuan hadn’t had much close contact with Qing Shui and was still very much reserved. She felt very anxious. If it was any other thing, she wouldn’t feel this anxious. However, she would feel very frantic toward a relations.h.i.+p between man and woman. She would feel anxiety, antic.i.p.ation and a bit at a loss.

AST 1337 – Powerful Physique, Nv`Er Hong, the powerful Double Portion Medication!

Qing Shui immediately understood Tantai Xuan's thoughts after seeing her expression. Even though he didn't understand all of it, at least he was able to interpret some of them. Hence, he approached her with a smile and held both of her hands and looked at her.  

Both Qing Shui and Tantai Xuan tried to avoid eye contact with each other the moment they met. However, Qing Shui still placed both of his hands onto her back and embraced her. Such a posture made her soft b.r.e.a.s.t.s become more supple and erect. The curve and protrusion made one's blood race. It was especially attractive to the eye.

Qing Shui was enthusiastically petting her body, causing Tantai Xuan to no longer be able to calm herself down. She was someone who had seen the scene of what Qing Shui and Yu Ruyan were doing when they were both together before. Now, those scenes were yet again madly resurfacing in her mind again.

Particularly at this moment when Qing Shui's hand was right in front of her chest. This made her feel extremely nervous, so much so that she started feeling numb. It was a very hot feeling, like she was itching. In her brain was a scene where Qing Shui was suckling on Yu Ruyan's soft b.r.e.a.s.t.s.

Qing Shui knew that he mustn’t make her feel embarra.s.sed. He hugged her and kissed her earlobes with his lips. However, this action of his only made Tantai Xuan s.h.i.+ver more. She embraced him back tightly and stopped him from moving randomly.

"Xuan`Er, have you missed me?" Qing Shui really enjoyed teasing the woman who kept on insisting that she didn't like him.

"No, I won't miss you," Tantai Xuan hugged Qing Shui and said in a playful tone.

Actually, she didn't know how different the tone she was speaking now compared to before. Even Qing Shui himself was shocked by it. Could it be that her entire personality had changed from secluding herself just once?

Despite this, Qing Shui still thought about one possibility. Which was at the moment of her breakthrough, she came to comprehend a lot of things. For example, the relations.h.i.+p between herself and him. It was just that he also wasn't clear on the exact way she looked at the relations.h.i.+p between them.

"Then who do you miss?" Qing Shui smiled and continued teasing her.

"I don't miss anyone."

"So it is me who has thought too much. I have been missing that person every single day but she doesn't seem to miss me back at all." Qing Shui blew out some air near her ear.

"You are nothing but a pervert. As if you will miss me." At the moment when Tantai Xuan heard what Qing Shui said, she still felt really happy. Regardless of whether his word were true or not, she was still willing to listen to them. This was how a girl who was in her first relations.h.i.+p would think.

Qing Shui never expected this woman to still be so biased against him. It seemed like he would still need to slowly change her. But the fact that she was able to allow him to hug her meant that she was already starting to accept herself or perhaps, starting to accept him too.

"You are right. I may be a pervert. But men were originally born to be perverts. This is the nature of humans. If they weren't h.o.r.n.y, how would you expect them to reproduce? Besides, which couples who love each other wouldn't do dirty stuff?" Qing Shui smiled softly.

"Thick-faced, crooked logic." Tantai Xuan smiled as she spoke.

Qing Shui smiled and gently let her go. After that, he grabbed her hand with one of his hands and Yu Ruyan's hand with the other. Together, they advanced their way towards the bamboo building. Yehuang Guwu was already in there. Prior to this, Qing Shui was at the beach with the two girls.

The two girls wanted to break free from Qing Shui's hands which were holding them tightly. But because Qing Shui kept their hands really close to himself, they couldn't do anything but let him continue holding them. Upon seeing Yehuang Guwu, Tantai Xuan smiled and said, "Master!"

"Are you happy?" Yehuang Guwu smiled and asked. She went up to them and similarly held onto Yu Ruyan's hand with one of her hands and Tantai Xuan's with the other. Like this, the four had formed a circle holding onto each other's hands.

"We are going to let Qing Shui make us something delicious today. Let's have an enjoyable dinner together and drink some alcohol." Yehuang Guwu made a suggestion.

"Yes, today is master's birthday," Tantai Xuan said with a smile.

Qing Shui was stunned and looked at Yehuang Guwu. Only now did he realize that other than the birthdays of his children and mother, he had not the slightest idea of when other people's birthdays were. There's no need to suspect whether he loved them or not. He wondered why, in the past, he had never thought about celebrating birthdays for them?

Qing Shui made three portions of Longevity Noodles. Even though Tantai Xuan and Yu Ruyan weren't having their birthday, he also made plenty of other stuff. It was a very sumptuous dinner. He took out the best Nv`Er Hong (chinese wine). The moment when the girls realized that it was Nv`Er Hong, they blushed.

Between men and women, only a husband and wife would have Nv`Er Hong together. Of course, two great masters could drink together, so could two women. But for a man and a woman to drink it together, it would mean they were husband and wife, particularly in this kind of situation. This was actually an unspoken rule.

And now, seeing that Qing Shui was having Nv`Er Hong with the three girls, no words had to be said about what he meant by it. Actually, the two girls were also aware that both Qing Shui and Yehuang Guwu also shared a unique relations.h.i.+p with each other. However, Tantai Xuan was someone who was aware of Yehuang Guwu's secret. Though by the name of it, Tantai Xuan and Yehuang Guwu shared a master disciple relation, they were actually more like sisters to each other. They might be even closer than blood-related sisters. Now, Yu Ruyan had joined them.

Yehuang Guwu had long since expected a day like this to come. Hence, since the beginning, she had already treated Yu Ruyan like a sister of her own. It was not that she was someone who planned meticulously, it was just that things had developed and events had taken such a turn. Before doing anything, one would have to first take a peek into their heart.

Tantai Xuan would also feel really happy when she saw Yehuang Guwu happy. If Yehuang Guwu could really be Qing Shui's wife, she would feel even happier than when herself and Qing Shui turned into husband and wife. She knew that Yu Ruyan wasn't Qing Shui's only women. Hence, since she was going to commit herself to him, she wouldn't mind having her master join as well. This way, they would be able to stick together forever. Sisters being able to stay together was also a sort of happiness that couldn't be described in words.

"Sister Yan, let's toast for Sister Wu. We will forever be good sisters," Tantai Xuan grabbed on Yu Ruyan's hand and said with a smile.

With this word, things had been made very clear. Both Tantai Xuan and Yu Ruyan looked at Yehuang Guwu with a smile.

Yehuang Guwu shot a gaze at Qing Shui. But Qing Shui only smiled and remained silent. Despite this, he was still trying to motivate her with his eyes. By now, both him and Yehuang Guwu were almost no different from husband and wife. But if she happened to really hold up her wine cup, it would mean that she had confirmed her status.

Yehuang Guwu held up her wine cup, "Ruyan, Xuan`Er, we will forever be sisters!"

After the three finished drinking their wine, Qing Shui also spent some time drinking alone with Yehuang Guwu before doing the same with Tantai Xuan and Yu Ruyan. Just like this, eating and drinking, half a day had pa.s.sed. They talked about a lot of stuff and from then, they become even closer with each other.

In the afternoon, Qing Shui started performing Const.i.tution Nurturing on the two girls. The two girls who broke through could also use the One-Yang Pill and Two-Yang Pill. Prior to this, the two girls had already achieved the State Master Grade. The condition to consume One-Yang Pill was also that the person taking in the pill must have strength above that of a Grade One State Master.

Ever since the two girls came out from their seclusion, they had already achieved strength equal to Grade Two State Masters. With the combination of Qing Shui's Const.i.tution Nurturing, Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling as well as s.h.i.+eld Attack, it aided the girls to immediately break through the toughest stage of achieving one Sun of strength. Most importantly, the foundation of the two girls received a significant boost. This was the largest effect of Const.i.tution Nurturing, it could help make the two girls' pace of improving their strength increase by a few or possibly even ten times.

Taking in both the One-Yang Pill and Two-Yang Pill could immediately help raise their strength up to five sun. Only one One-Yang Pill and Two-Yang Pill could be taken per year. Furthermore, a person could very likely only take at maximum ten of each of all the varieties of the Yang Pills. Hence, Qing Shui was really looking forward to refining  Three-Yang Pills and the pills which came after that. This way, it would be very easy for Qing Shui to accomodate the people around him.

Yehuang Guwu had also used it. Even though to Yehuang Guwu, three sun of strength wasn't really worth anything. But despite how small a mosquito was, it still had flesh. Let alone Qing Shui was going to be able to refine them very soon. By then, he would no longer run short of them. For pills like the One-Yang and Two-Yang Pills, they didn't only do things as simple as merely helping to boost strength. It could also help raise some of the consumer's body physique. This was the ability of good medicinal pills.

But after Yehuang Guwu used it, she realized that the One-Yang pill actually increased her strength by two sun. After that, she consumed the Two-Yang Pill only to realize that the amount of strength increased was worth four sun. After thinking for a while, the only a.s.sumption Qing Shui could come up with was that this had to do with her body physique.

It was likely that her body belonged to the cold-attribute. She needed this kind of Yang Force more than anyone else. Hence, upon absorbing them, she could achieve twice the effect with only half the work. How about if it was higher grades of Yang Pill? Now, Qing Shui really wanted to know if Three-Yang Pill would really increase strength by three sun. How about Four-Yang Pill? Normally, an unforeseen event would occur with Four-Yang Pill. For all he knew, he might end up increasing his strength by more than four sun.

Qing Shui felt that the possibility was very large. Or else, the Nine Yang Pharmacopoeia could work as well.

"Qing Shui, do you have even higher grades of Yang Pill?? Yehuang Guwu looked at Qing Shui in shock.

"I do, it's just that I haven't refined them. I am not sure whether I will be able to succeed in refining them. There is a limitation in amount to which I can make these things."

"I have a medical prescription here which will definitely pique your interest," Yehuang Guwu said after thinking a bit.

"Oh, what medical prescription?" Even though Qing Shui was happy, he didn't feel all that happy. Usually, things such as medical prescriptions weren't that appealing to him.

"You don't seem to be excited. The medical prescription is used to make dowries. Seeing that you seem not to like it, I think I will just keep it for myself!" Yehuang Guwu pouted and smiled.

Especially when a mature and charming woman showed this kind of expression, it would give people the urge to commit crimes. Qing Shui held her hand and immediately slapped her well-rounded b.u.t.t. A sharp and clear noise came through. Even though it wasn't painful, it made Yehuang Guwu feel extremely embarra.s.sed.

The reason being that both Tantai Xuan and Yu Ruyan were present.

The two girls on the other hand, were laughing very happily. There was even a bright l.u.s.ter in their eyes. This was the first time they saw this demonically beautiful woman at an disadvantage. Even Yu Ruyan felt insignificant in front of Yehuang Guwu. Her mature charm and beauty could only cause Yu Ruyan to sigh at her own inferiority.

In Tantai Xuan's and Yu Ruyan's perspective, Yehuang Guwu was always the proud and elegant woman no matter whom she stood in front of. But to their surprise, it only took such a short while for them to spectate a scene where she got slapped on the a.s.s by a man.

"You d.a.m.ned brat, leave some face for me when you are in front of them……" Yehuang Guwu rolled her eyes at Qing Shui.

"We are a family now. Here, hand over the medical prescription to your husband to let him a.n.a.lyze it." Qing Shui stretched out his head and kissed her cheek.

Yehuang Guwu quickly gave Qing Shui the medical prescription. After that, she stepped back. She was well aware that any reasoning was absolutely unnecessary between him and her. She could only embarra.s.s herself even more and make a joke out of herself in front of the two girls. In actuality, she wasn't afraid of letting the girls see her, they were already sisters, what else could they not share between each other?

Qing Shui took it over with a smile. He was stunned upon seeing it. The paper of the medical prescription was very weird. It should be something which was pa.s.sed down from a long time ago. It looked very old yet there wasn't even the slightest scratch on it. The name of the medical prescription was also really bizarre.

Double Portion Medication!!

Qing Shui looked towards the medicinal herbs on the medical prescription only to notice that he didn't actually need very precious herbs. It was just that they came in a lot of varieties. Not only that but the majority of them were those which helped to unlock one's potential. One of them was the Single Taste Const.i.tution Origin Herb. It was also one of the most precious ones among them. Nevertheless, Qing Shui had this herb in his realm. The herb was also already very old in terms of its years. They were the herbs which was planted a long, long time ago. Now, the herb was already very huge. In fact, he was starting to get upset with the uses of these herbs. Only a little of them was used when he was refining Const.i.tution Nurturing Pill and Tiger Bone Soup.

Who would have thought for things to take such a good turn? These herbs were finally useful. In fact, it was the herb with the most efficient use. The reason being that he saw the effect of the medical prescription.

Effect: Reduce the resistance against medicinal pills by half.

That would mean that he could consume more effect via medicinal pills than before. For example, prior to this, he was only able to consume ten One-Yang Pill. Now, after the calculations, it basically meant that he could consume twenty of them. He used to only be able to take in one per year. Now, he could take two per year.
