68: Chapter 68 Primordial True Qi
It was unknown how much time had passed, but Lian Xing slowly woke up.
Memories before losing consciousness flooded back. She instinctively checked her own state, unexpectedly discovering that while her Internal Energy had suffered a loss, it was not much—only about ten to twenty percent. Given her current foundation, she could recover after a period of closed-door cultivation.
This made her feel strange.
Did that Meng Li not take action to drain her Internal Energy?
Why did he only take away ten to twenty percent?
Immediately after, she thought of her sister, Yao Yue, and intended to search for her. However, as soon as she stood up, she saw Yao Yue lying on the couch opposite, eyes tightly shut, her face pale.
Lian Xing hurried over to check the situation.
After checking Yao Yue's condition, she first breathed a sigh of relief, but then her expression soured.
Yao Yue's body was fine, just weak and unconscious, but her entire Martial Arts had vanished.
When Yao Yue wakes up and realizes this, she will likely find it hard to accept.
Subsequently, Lian Xing began to survey her surroundings.
Just at that moment, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Meng Li walked in.
Upon seeing him, Lian Xing hugged Yao Yue and shrank back, her expression somewhat tense.
As the saying goes, 'The others are the butcher's knife, and I am the fish meat'; she could not help but be tense.
Seeing this, Meng Li smiled slightly: "There is no need to be so nervous. If I truly wanted to harm you, I would not have only taken away ten to twenty percent of your Internal Energy."
Lian Xing thought about it and realized it was true, so she relaxed slightly, then asked: "What about my sister?"
Meng Li said: "She wanted to cripple my Martial Arts. Had I not possessed the Wedding Dress Divine Skill, I would be in her current state."
"I returned the favor in kind; that is not excessive, is it?"
Lian Xing did not speak.
To be fair, Meng Li's actions were indeed not excessive, but Yao Yue was, after all, her sister.
She could not turn around and blame Yao Yue, so she had to choose silence.
After a while, she asked in confusion: "Then why did you spare me?"
Meng Li laughed: "There are two reasons. The first is that you did not intend to cripple my Martial Arts, and you did not even attack me, so naturally, I had no reason to cripple your Martial Arts. The reason I attacked you was that I did not want you to attack me in order to save Yao Yue."
"Furthermore, I am quite interested in the 'Hun Yuan True Qi' you Cultivate."
"As for the second reason, it is because you look like an old acquaintance of mine."
Lian Xing was stunned for a moment: "Like an old acquaintance of yours?"
Meng Li nodded: "Her surname is Pei, and her name is Pei Pei."
Pei Pei?
Lian Xing furrowed her brows and thought for a moment, but had no impression of this name.
Seeing this, Meng Li smiled silently.
Pei Pei was another role played by the actress who portrayed Lian Xing in the original drama, from a campus youth idol drama he had watched in his previous life called 'Eighteen Years Old Sky'. Other than being played by the same actress, she had no connection to Lian Xing and did not belong to the same world.
It would be strange if she had any impression of it.
After a while with no result, Lian Xing withdrew her thoughts and asked Meng Li: "What do you intend to do with us next?"
Meng Li shrugged: "Nothing. I never intended to cause you trouble; you brought it upon yourselves. Now that the matter is resolved, you may leave at any time."
Lian Xing was stunned and asked suspiciously: "Are you really willing to let us leave?"
"Do I have any reason to lie to you?" Meng Li retorted, then seemingly remembering something, reminded her: "You burned down the Red Leaf Pavilion headquarters but did not root out the trouble; beware that the Spring Breeze will cause it to grow again, and you may face retaliation from Old Red Leaf and Young Red Leaf."
"How do you know that?"
Lian Xing felt slightly stunned, then seemingly thinking of a possibility, her expression changed slightly: "Did you use the Mi Xin Great Technique on us?!"
Meng Li raised his index finger and shook it: "Not on you; I used it on Yao Yue. Her temperament is too extreme, so I used the Mi Xin Great Technique to make some adjustments. You can observe the effect after you take her back. If you are not satisfied, you can undo it and let her return to her original self."
"However, if she comes to seek revenge on me, I will not just return the favor; I will solve the problem once and for all."
"Alright, there is nothing else. You may take Yao Yue and leave."
Upon hearing this, Lian Xing lifted Yao Yue horizontally and walked away.
When she reached the door, she paused and asked curiously: "What is your relationship with that Pei Pei?"
Meng Li was stumped by the question, and after a few seconds, he said: "We could barely be considered Master and Disciple."
Pei Pei's profession was a teacher, and he watched the show during his student days, so saying it that way was not entirely wrong.
Barely considered Master and Disciple?
Lian Xing was somewhat surprised.
She had thought their relationship would be very deep. Otherwise, Meng Li would not have shown mercy just because she looked like the other person.
However, she did not think too much about it. Coming back to her senses, she said "Farewell" to Meng Li and then left, carrying Yao Yue.
Not long after Lian Xing left, Tie Xinlan, Xiaoxiao, and Jiang Yuyan, who had gone shopping together, returned.
"Husband/Young Master-in-law, we are back."
Before they arrived, their voices arrived first. Then the courtyard door was pushed open, and all three were carrying large and small bags.
Watching this, Meng Li had a sense of déjà vu from his previous life when his partner would return home after shopping. He couldn't help but inwardly think that women's love for shopping and buying things is an instinct that transcends time.
Immediately, he walked over with a smile to take a look, seeing that most were food, as well as rouge and powder.
Once the items were put away, Meng Li spoke: "You have returned just in time. The Cultivation Technique I mentioned earlier that is suitable for you to Cultivate has been decided."
Upon hearing this, Tie Xinlan, Jiang Yuyan, and Xiaoxiao were stunned.
Regarding their Martial Arts training, Meng Li had spoken about it before.
Regarding this, they had no objections; they were all very willing, and they had a certain foundation.
There is no need to say much about Tie Xinlan; as the daughter of the Wulin Alliance Leader Tie Ruyun, she already possessed not-weak Martial Arts. Later, under Meng Li's guidance and training, even though she did not Cultivate wholeheartedly, she had improved significantly.
With her current level, she could steadily win against ordinary Sect Head-level figures.
Xiaoxiao and Jiang Yuyan's foundation came from Meng Li, but currently, they only knew some basic fisticuffs and had not yet cultivated Internal Energy.
Firstly, the cultivation of Internal Energy is not easy, and secondly, there was no suitable Internal Skill Mind-Cultivation Technique.
But now, a suitable Internal Skill Mind-Cultivation Technique was available—'Hun Yuan True Qi'!
This is the kingly Martial Arts Legacy of Yihua Palace. Not only is the cultivation efficiency high—one year is worth twenty years for an average person—but it is also not difficult to enter the gate. As long as Meng Li taught the incantations, then converted a portion of his own Wedding Dress Divine Skill Internal Energy into Hun Yuan True Qi and transmitted it to them to guide them, it would not be difficult for them to Cultivate.
When she came back to her senses, Jiang Yuyan said with surprise: "That is wonderful!"
Among the three, she was the most proactive about practicing Martial Arts. This was because she had the deepest understanding of the benefits that Martial Arts brought her: improving physical fitness, increasing self-protection ability, increasing a sense of security, and enhancing self-confidence...
It even had benefits when being intimate with Meng Li.
Immediately, Tie Xinlan and Xiaoxiao also showed expressions of joy.
Meng Li said straightforwardly: "This Cultivation Technique is called 'Hun Yuan True Qi'. I will first teach you the incantations, and then I will infuse you with a portion of Internal Energy to help you circulate your Qi."
After speaking, he began to recite the incantations of 'Hun Yuan True Qi'.
The three of them, Tie Xinlan, Jiang Yuyan, and Xiaoxiao, were not stupid; they quickly memorized the incantations.
After Meng Li confirmed there were no issues, he directly began to transmit the Internal Energy and guide them...
