feeling both heartache and guilt.Doctor Wang beside her picked up the auspicious grass from Xiao Yu's songbook, examined it carefully, and exclaimed with joy: "It's indeed auspicious grass! There is..."Sister Feng, you are truly knowledgeable. You actually recognized that this is the Secret of Life and Death!" Xiao Yuge was also surprised that Feng Yan's mother had recognized at a glance that she was using the Secret of Life and Death.
“Congratulations to the host! Congratulations to the host! You've mastered your skills!” Feng Yanni was overjoyed. Although Shao Louzhu had lost his meridians, he had learned the Life and Death Sutra, which would definitely make him a top-tier expert in the martial world. From now on, with Shao Louzhu around, the Frost and Snow Pavilion’s status in the martial arts world would surely rise.
"Don't congratulate me yet, it's not fully accomplished. Wait until it's truly perfected before you congratulate me..." Before he could finish his words, Xiao Yuge suddenly leaned forward, spewing a mouthful of blood from his mouth.
"Landlord!" Feng Yanniang was startled, hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and asked anxiously, "Landlord, are you alright"
“Don’t worry, it was just a backlash, nothing serious!” Xiao Yuge wiped the blood from her mouth, secretly suppressing the surging internal energy. The final chapter had been difficult to break through, leaving her frustrated. Although she had secretly used the Deathly Oath to punish Hua Qinghe, she had also suffered a backlash herself.
Luckily, Hua Qinghe was scared off by her three attacks and didn't dare to let her continue. If she continued, she probably wouldn't be able to perform a fourth time. Or perhaps, if she managed to reach the fourth time, she feared she wouldn't be able to control the true qi within her body, and her secret would be exposed.
"Master, I heard from the old master that you've started to experience backlash from practicing the Death Life Sutra. Will this continue" Feng Yanniang was very worried. She knew that practicing the Death Life Sutra could lead to demonic possession if one wasn't careful. This is why many people coveted this divine skill but were afraid to practice it. The first sign of demonic possession is usually backlash.
"Don't worry, I can control it. It's just not fully trained yet. When it's fully trained, there won't be this backlash phenomenon anymore." Xiao Yuge was quite confident.
"What if..." Feng Yanniang was still not at ease. She dared not imagine what would happen to the Frost and Snow Tower if Shao Louzhu truly went mad from cultivating too intensely.
"Sister Feng, there's no what if, believe me!" Xiao Yuge held onto Feng Yanniang's hand, she knew that Feng Yanniang was truly worried about her.
"Well, I believe the樓主 will surely succeed!" Feng Yan'niang thought for a moment, and then she realized. She had lived so long, although she had never heard of, let alone seen anyone who had mastered the Secret of Life and Death, but she believed that Shao Louzhu was so intelligent, he would surely create miracles.
"Well. However, this matter is known only to you and me. Please keep it a secret from others to avoid unnecessary trouble." Xiao Yuge cautioned. Although the Secret of Life and Death was difficult to master, some martial arts enthusiasts in the Jianghu were quite obsessed with it. If word got out, she would never have peace for the rest of her life.
"Rest assured, master. I will keep my lips sealed!"
"Hua Qinghe and her companions suffered a loss today, they definitely won't just let it go. These few days, you arrange some people to keep an eye on things, don't cause any trouble." Xiao Yuge knew that Hua Qinghe was Xiao Yu's newly acquainted best friend, and besides, Hua Qinghe's father had been promoted by Xiao Zhan, which gave him his current position. Therefore, Hua Qinghe must have been instructed by Xiao Yu to come to Ru Yi Fang to make a scene.
"Lord, if they come here and cause a ruckus every other day, it will definitely affect the business of Myriad Desires Pavilion. It's better if my subordinates go and..." Feng Yanniang made a gesture to silence them.
"No!" Xiao Yuge stopped her. "The three of them, two are county princesses and one is a county lord. If something happens to them, someone will definitely suspect us. Then, we'll be on the defensive."
"Are we just going to let them run amok like this" Feng Yanniang was a person of the Jianghu, so she naturally wouldn't care much. Killing one or two people was as simple for her as eating and sleeping.
Of course not. You can rest assured, I will take care of this.
"If the prince knew about this, he would certainly stand up for you. With the prince on your side, they wouldn't dare to cause any more trouble." Feng Yanniang assumed that Louzhu wanted the prince to help.
Xiao Yu's song shook her head: "There's no need to bother him with everything, and I don't want to owe him too many favors. After all, the Frost and Snow Pavilion is now a major sect in the Jianghu. Could it be that we can't even handle these few women"
"The host is right!"
"Alright, you go busy yourself first. I'll rest for a while." Xiao Yuge crossed her legs and sat down on the bed, just now's backlash seemed to have really injured her, she needed to take a breather.
"Yes! This subordinate takes his leave!"
As Xiao Yu Ge had predicted, Fang Minru and Hua Qinghe, who returned to the Ruyi Pavilion after suffering a loss, were deeply resentful. The more they thought about it, the angrier they became, but to this day, they still couldn't figure out what had happened that day.
"Elder Sister Fang, you say that Xiao Yuge is truly a god descending to earth, aren't you I, the county princess, can't even withstand one kneel from her" Hua Qinghe simply couldn't swallow this humiliation. Her hair had grown back for several days now, and she had slowly managed to style it, but only after much trimming and pulling. These past few days, she practically trembled at the sound of a comb.
Fang Minrou also furrowed her brows: "Whether she's a fairy descended from heaven, I don't know. But that day's events were definitely strange. Xiao Yuge, at such a young age, managed to enchant so many men, making them infatuated with her. Thinking back, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once loved Xiao Yufu most, how could he suddenly develop such deep feelings for Xiao Yuge And as for Brother Tingxuan, he and Xiao Yuge not only have a large age gap but also rarely interacted. How could Brother Tingxuan suddenly become so enamored with her"
Hua Qinghe didn't know what she was thinking about, suddenly her face flushed: "Sister Fang, I heard that Xiao Yuge also inexplicably became proficient in medicine. I heard that there is a kind of sorcery called the Soul-Capturing Technique in Nanjiang. Do you think Xiao Yufu might have cast a spell on them all"
“Was she cursed” Fang Minrou tightened her brows, then shook her head. “Impossible! I had people investigate Xiao Yuge. She grew up in the capital from a young age, and the farthest place she’d ever been was Lanshan Temple outside the city. There’s no way she could possibly know any curses!”
"The fact that she hasn't been to Nanjiang doesn't mean she hasn't encountered people from there. I heard that after leaving Xiangfu, her medical skills became even more remarkable. Could it be that she met someone from Nanjiang during that time" Hua Qinghe felt that her guess must be right. Otherwise, on a sunny day, how could thunder and lightning suddenly appear She believed that Xiao Yuge must have secretly used some kind of sorcery.
"This..." Although Fang Minru felt a bit absurd, at present, it seemed that this explanation was the only one that could make sense: "What you said also makes some sense. It's possible she used some underhanded methods to learn those dirty things."erms of appearance, she was also top-notch. Her age was similar to her senior brother's. If the two were to fall for each other, it would be a good match. 。To his surprise, He Ming shook his head in...
