81: Capture Zhong Ling, Wang Yuyan

Just as Ning Yuan left the peak and returned to the entrance of the secret chamber where Tianshan Child Granny was in seclusion.

The tightly shut door of the secret chamber suddenly opened.

"She left?"

Tianshan Child Granny asked directly after seeing Ning Yuan.

"She has already left."

"Hmph, I knew this Bitch wouldn't miss this opportunity to deal with me."

Tianshan Child Granny looked as if she had expected this, then sized up Ning Yuan. "What are you planning to do? The conditions she offered are much more generous than mine, Tóng Lǎo."

"As long as Tóng Lǎo agrees to return to the Sect, I will naturally ensure your safety."

Ning Yuan said with a face full of smiles.

"Aren't you afraid Tóng Lǎo will go back on her word after recovering her power?"

Tianshan Child Granny narrowed her eyes and countered.

Ning Yuan smiled without speaking.

Tianshan Child Granny, feeling snubbed, snorted. "You truly are not simple. If I, Tóng Lǎo, were to go back on my word, I fear you would seize my power, wouldn't you? You are much more ruthless than that dullard Wu Yazi."

"I really didn't expect that at the last moment, Wu Yazi, that honest man, would choose a deep-scheming Disciple like you to be the Sect Head of the Xiaoyao Sect. I'm afraid even his second Disciple, Ding Chunqiu, is far inferior to you."

Tianshan Child Granny's voice held a hint of emotion.

"Now, even that Bitch Li Qiushui is no match for you. Why don't I wait until I recover my power, help you capture that Bitch Li Qiushui, and seize all her power?"

Tianshan Child Granny suddenly looked at Ning Yuan. "At that time, wouldn't you be invincible under heaven?"

"Tóng Lǎo, whatever thoughts you have, let's discuss them after you recover your power."

Ning Yuan chuckled. "However, this Disciple heard that although the Tianshan Plum Hand only has six paths, it counters all weapons under heaven. Is that true?"

"You want to Cultivate it?"

Tianshan Child Granny slightly narrowed her eyes, then said with great pride: "Although the mantra for my Tianshan Plum Hand is only eighty-four characters long, the content it covers is all-encompassing. Any Move or martial art under heaven can be automatically incorporated into these six forms of Plum Hand. This is the proudest creation of my life, and teaching it to you is not out of the question."

Tianshan Child Granny rubbed her chin, jumped onto a stone, and scrutinized Ning Yuan. "Since you didn't cooperate with that Bitch Li Qiushui, I, Tóng Lǎo, will first pass the Tianshan Plum Hand to you. But how much you can comprehend depends on you."

Saying this, Tianshan Child Granny began to practice the Moves while reciting the Mantra.

An hour later.

Ning Yuan sat cross-legged on the stone, silently comprehending.

Although one hour was not enough for him to completely master these two martial arts, he had basically grasped them and only needed sufficient time to Cultivate and apply them.

And what he lacked least was Cultivation speed... "Brother Murong, why are you here?"

Inside Zhong Ling's room, seeing Ning Yuan suddenly appear, Zhong Ling asked, both happy and nervous.

"Ling'er, are you willing to follow me?"

Ning Yuan didn't bother with pleasantries and asked directly.

Zhong Ling immediately nodded, then asked confusedly, "Haven't I always been following you, Brother Murong?"

"I mean, like your Sister Mu Wanqing."

"Like Sister Mu?"

Zhong Ling suddenly widened her eyes, then lowered her head, nodding slightly in embarrassment, whispering: "Actually, I've liked Brother Murong for a long time, but Brother Murong has Sister Mu, Sister A Zhu, and Sister Wang by his side. Although Zhong Ling thinks she is quite attractive, she feels she can't compare to those sisters, so..."

"Nonsense. You are not much worse than them. Each of you has your own merits, and you have your own charm."

Ning Yuan lifted Zhong Ling's chin. "Since you, Ling'er, are willing, shall I make you my woman tonight?"

Ning Yuan seemed to be asking, but his tone brooked no argument.

Zhong Ling shyly lowered her head.

Her round face, with a small dimple blooming at the corner of her mouth, and her snow-white, tender cheeks revealing a blush, made her look even more delicate and utterly charming.

Before long, as Ning Yuan pulled off Zhong Ling's snow-white socks, a pair of crystal-clear, delicate, white jade feet were revealed.

Her snow-white jade toes curled slightly, looking incredibly cute.

"Good sister, from now on you are my woman. Your husband will not mistreat you."

Ning Yuan gently untied Zhong Ling's last chest binding; they were small and exquisite, fitting perfectly in a grasp.

Zhong Ling closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

She was simultaneously scared, shy, and expectant.

Following a cry of pain from Zhong Ling, the maiden completed her transformation... Early the next morning.

Ning Yuan rigorously Cultivated his martial arts on Piao Miao Peak.

Whether it was the Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms or the Tianshan Plum Hand.

Ning Yuan had only grasped them, but had not yet reached Major Achievement.

Now, under the blessing of a thousand times Cultivation speed, his Moves and forms became increasingly fluid.

Cultivating for one day was equivalent to Cultivating for three years.

And during this single day of Cultivation, Ning Yuan completely mastered the Tianshan Plum Hand.

That night.

Ning Yuan demonstrated the Tianshan Plum Hand in front of Tianshan Child Granny.

"What? In just one day, you mastered this ultimate skill of mine?"

Tianshan Child Granny stared at Ning Yuan in disbelief.

Even someone with profound martial arts and high Talent could not master the Tianshan Plum Hand in just one day.

This wasn't just grasping it; it was complete mastery.

It was truly comprehending the essence of the Tianshan Plum Hand.

Such Talent was simply unheard of.

Tianshan Child Granny looked at Ning Yuan, her eyes filled with shock and suspicion. "How exactly did you do that?"

Tianshan Child Granny had seen Geniuses before. In fact, she, Li Qiushui, and Wu Yazi, to be accepted as Disciples by Xiaoyao Zi, were all Prodigies and heaven-sent talents of their generation.

But it was still impossible to master a pinnacle martial art in a single day.

Even having Cultivated the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill, which excelled at imitating others' martial arts and had the characteristic of assisting people in Cultivating martial arts, it couldn't be this fast.

"I just reached it after Cultivating diligently for one day. Is that difficult? Didn't Tóng Lǎo also master it in one day?"

Ning Yuan looked bewildered, his expression sincere.

"You!"

Tianshan Child Granny showed a look of shame and anger, finally turning it into a cold snort, raising her small head high. "I, Tóng Lǎo, possess heaven-sent talent, so of course I can do it! If you want to compare with me, wait until you can create your own ultimate skill."

That's what Tianshan Child Granny said verbally.

She naturally wouldn't admit that she was inferior to others.

"Tóng Lǎo is right. I am merely a later learner; how can I compare to the Originator?"

Ning Yuan immediately said humbly.

"It's good that you know."

Tianshan Child Granny put her hands behind her back and raised her head, saying: "That Bitch and I both used the Xiaoyao Sect's ultimate skills as our Foundation and both created our own ultimate skills. Every generation of successor in the Xiaoyao Sect must create their own martial art to leave for later generations, and you are no exception. But you are still young, so there is no rush. Later, I will pass the Tianshan Six Yang Palm to you. Once you learn this martial art, you can use it to control the onset time of the Life and Death Talisman, as well as remove the Life and Death Talisman."

"Furthermore, although this martial art of mine is called Six Yang, it actually requires both Yin and Yang Qi within the body, not pure Yang. It is far incomparable to general supreme Yang martial arts."

Tianshan Child Granny said with considerable pride.

She then sighed softly, "Wu Yazi didn't pass this martial art to you. It seems he didn't have much time left back then."

"Never mind. Watch closely."

Although Tianshan Child Granny's power hadn't recovered yet, it didn't affect her demonstration of the Moves. By then, one only needed to cooperate with the Mantra to Cultivate it.

That night, Ning Yuan summoned Zhong Ling again.

After obtaining the hundredfold amplification, he continued to focus on Cultivation the next day.

One day was equivalent to three months of Cultivation. Although it couldn't compare to the thousandfold amplification, the progress was still astonishing.

Next was Mu Wanqing.

Among the remaining people, only Wang Yuyan and A Zi were still virgins.

The amplification for everyone else had already reached the minimum limit.

But this was not enough to satisfy Ning Yuan.

Piao Miao Peak was secluded from the world, allowing Ning Yuan to Cultivate in peace.

That night, Ning Yuan came to Wang Yuyan's room.

"Cousin, do you feel that I haven't been concerned about you?"

Seeing the sadly dejected Wang Yuyan, Ning Yuan gently comforted her.

"Cousin."

Wang Yuyan stood up, her expression a mix of excitement and despondency.

In the past few days, she had naturally noticed the changes in Zhong Ling, Mu Wanqing, and the others, and had also seen her Cousin entering and leaving their rooms late at night, only departing early the next morning.

He spent the daytime Cultivating and didn't speak to her.

This made her constantly feel that she had upset her Cousin. Otherwise, why would he look for other women instead of her?

Now seeing her Cousin, a wave of grievance immediately surged in her heart. Her eyes turned red, and tears streamed out.

"Cousin, you misunderstood. I just couldn't bear to disturb you at this time because your maternal grandfather recently passed away."

Ning Yuan embraced Wang Yuyan. "How could I not like you?"

"Cousin, is that true?"

Wang Yuyan raised her head in disbelief. "Cousin, I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"Of course, it's true."

Ning Yuan gently stroked Wang Yuyan's delicate cheek. "You are the future Matriarch of the Murong Family, so what I give you is naturally the best."

"Cousin!"

Wang Yuyan smiled.

Looking at Wang Yuyan in his arms, delicate like a flower bud, Ning Yuan couldn't help but lower his head.

Wang Yuyan's eyes first widened, then she showed a shy expression and closed them.

Soon after, her pink and white dress fell to the ground, revealing skin like white mutton-fat jade.

Her beautiful collarbones were exposed, making it impossible to look away.

"Cousin!"

Wang Yuyan crossed her arms over her chest, turned sideways, and cried out shyly, her face flushed red.

Although she had grown up with her Cousin since childhood, this was the first time they had been this close since she became an adult.

Although Wang Yuyan hadn't experienced it, as a woman, she understood a great deal.

"Cousin, I will treat you well. From now on, you are the Matriarch of the Murong Family."

"When we return to Gusu this time, I will propose marriage to Aunt. I will hold a grand wedding that will draw the attention of the entire world."

Ning Yuan lifted Wang Yuyan's crystal-clear, jade-like chin and said with a serious expression.

Wang Yuyan blushed, showing a look of emotion.

"I don't need a grand wedding. Yu Yan will be satisfied as long as Cousin has me in his heart."

Wang Yuyan said softly.

"No matter what request you make, I will satisfy you."

Ning Yuan comforted her softly.

He slowly lifted her up by the waist and placed her on the bed.

Wang Yuyan couldn't help but shyly close her eyes, her eyelashes trembling, afraid to open them.

Feeling his fingers glide over her skin, Wang Yuyan's cheeks became even more delicate and lovely, like a flower.

Her brows furrowed tightly, revealing a hint of pain, but soon it was gone, like duckweed beaten by the rain.

There are some family matters recently, so I can only post two updates. Sorry!
