The world reincarnates, each time a new talent!

161: Superb, recognize Madam Wang as his sister!”Mother, I’m already comprehending the swordplay.”

Lin Pingzhi stood up, his back to Madam Wang, and said in a muffled voice.

”Alas!”

Madam Wang sighed softly. As a mother, she knew her son best. If Lin Pingzhi had started to Cultivate swordplay earlier, he would never have this expression now. This current state must mean he encountered some problem he couldn’t solve.

”If you really can’t comprehend it, you can ask Mr. Yue for guidance. His martial arts are formidable, and he certainly wouldn’t care about our Lin family’s swordplay.”

Madam Wang suggested.

After all, with her current relationship with Ning Yuan, as long as she whispered a few words, he would certainly not hesitate to teach.

”Mother, I understand. If there’s nothing else, you can go back first.”

Lin Pingzhi paused, then said impatiently.

If the Evil-Exorcising Swordplay Manual was truly just a powerful sword manual, he could naturally ask Yue Buqun for guidance.

But the Evil-Exorcising Swordplay Manual involved self-castration, which made him too embarrassed to ask.

Moreover, he understood that his inability to unleash the sword manual’s power wasn’t due to a lack of Comprehension Ability, but merely because he had an extra ’burden,’ which prevented him from fully utilizing his Cultivation and speed.

The most formidable aspects of the Evil-Exorcising Swordplay Manual, besides its unpredictable and strange sword moves, was its speed.

In fact, these sword moves were only powerful because they could be executed with a speed several times greater than an ordinary person’s.

Without speed, the Evil-Exorcising Swordplay Manual was just an ordinary sword technique, no stronger than the Huashan Sword Sect’s swordplay.

”Alas!”

Seeing Lin Pingzhi like this, Madam Wang couldn’t persuade him further. After a soft sigh, she turned and left.

However, she decided in her heart to go find Ning Yuan and ask him.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be at ease... Inside the secret chamber.

Ning Yuan was in seclusion, Cultivating, when his aura suddenly became restless.

Even violent.

The books and ink in the secret chamber were swept up by an invisible True Qi and scattered against the surrounding walls.

The area around Ning Yuan was spotless.

After a long while, the restless and violent aura gradually calmed, and only then did Ning Yuan slowly open his eyes.

A look of joy appeared on his face.

”I’ve had a Breakthrough!”

”Indeed, as long as one’s Comprehension Ability is high enough, one can achieve the effect of A Thousand Miles a Day and quickly improve one’s strength.”

Ning Yuan murmured to himself.

After absorbing Ren Woxing’s Cultivation, he was already only half a step away from a Breakthrough.

Now, after more than ten days of Cultivation with the blessing of high Comprehension Ability, the Breakthrough was a matter of course.

He had also perfected the subsequent Cultivation Technique for the Bei Ming Divine Skill’s Aperture Opening Middle Stage Aperture Condensation.

He had already completed one of his most basic goals upon arriving in this world.

【Current World: Smiling Proud Wanderer, Xia Ke Island】

【Countdown to Departure: 892 Days (Main World 1 Day)】

【Luck: 420 (Can be exchanged for main body martial arts)】

【Current Identity: Yue Buqun】

【Current Talent: Dual Cultivation of Blessing and Wisdom (Active, 3x Comprehension Ability)】

【Cultivation: Top-tier (Qi Cultivation Late Stage Gang Qi Realm)】

【Martial Arts: Bei Ming Divine Skill, Seven-String Formless Sword, Five Mountains Divine Sword...】

”Unknowingly, a hundred days have passed.”

”A hundred days in the Tian Long World felt very compact, but in this world, it’s been much more relaxed.”

Ning Yuan thought to himself, then walked out of the secret chamber.

During these ten days, he had Cultivated peacefully.

Not only had his Cultivation undergone a Breakthrough, but his swordplay had also become more refined.

However, Ning Yuan currently did not plan to continue exchanging for martial arts. After all, upon returning to the Main World, and then entering a Small World again, his talent would still exist after identity Fusion.

It would only be replaced by a new talent when he entered the next new world.

Therefore, unless necessary, he would try to save Luck points as much as possible.

This way, after he Fuses his identity and reactivates his talent, he can continue to deduce the subsequent Cultivation Techniques.

”Senior Brother, you’ve come out of seclusion?”

Ning Zhongze had been waiting nearby, and seeing the secret chamber door open, she immediately came forward to greet him.

”Yes, this time I gained quite a lot.”

Ning Yuan nodded slightly, a big smile on his face.

Reaching the top-tier Realm, a great weight was finally lifted from his heart.

This meant that in this world, few people could threaten him.

Even powerful figures like Dongfang Bubai and Feng Qingyang couldn’t kill him.

Therefore, he was full of vigor for a moment.

”That’s great.”

Ning Zhongze’s face showed joy, then suddenly became serious as she said: ”Lao Denuo sent news. It is said that Zuo Lengchan recently intends to contact the other three sects, planning to frame Huashan for colluding with the Demonic Sect, and also to claim that Senior Brother has intentions to unify the Five Mountains. Therefore, he wants to unite the three sects to deal with us.”

”Will Abbess Dingxian and Mr. Mo Da believe that?”

Ning Yuan was noncommittal.

But Ning Zhongze shook her head slightly, ”Whether they believe it or not isn’t important. What’s important is that Senior Brother’s strength is the strongest right now.”

”Moreover, there are rumors that Chong’er has recently become involved with people from the Demonic Sect, which has affected our Huashan’s reputation.”

”Zuo Lengchan has also added fuel to the fire, saying that Senior Brother’s intervention for Liu Zhengfeng back then was because you were connected to the Demonic Sect, an undercover agent of the Demonic Sect intending to overthrow the Righteous Path. Therefore, many Jianghu people have already begun to question Senior Brother.”

”Zuo Lengchan has good methods. The Songshan Sect’s years of operation in the Jianghu truly cannot be destroyed overnight.”

Ning Yuan’s face showed understanding, then he snorted, ”However, Dingxian and the others also know that cooperating with Zuo Lengchan is like seeking skin from a tiger. Since they want to hold a meeting on Mount Tai to criticize me, I will go there myself and see what their opinions are.”

Ning Yuan said with his hands behind his back, full of confidence.

”It’s good that Senior Brother has a plan.”

As Ning Zhongze spoke, she suddenly frowned and couldn’t help but turn aside to retch.

”Junior Sister, what’s wrong?”

Ning Yuan looked at Ning Zhongze with confusion.

Ning Zhongze shook her head, ”Nothing, perhaps I’ve had a poor appetite recently.”

”If that’s the case, then we’ll return tomorrow.”

Ning Yuan immediately said sternly.

Soon after, Ning Yuan announced this matter during dinner.

”Mr. Yue, now that I have returned to the Lin family, and Zuo Lengchan has been scared away by you, I will not return to Huashan with you.”

Madam Wang hesitated for a long time, then suddenly stood up and said.

Her gaze towards Ning Yuan was a bit evasive, not daring to look him directly in the eye.

Doing such a thing back then was out of necessity, for her son. Now that her son had successfully joined the sect and retrieved the family’s unique martial art, she should break free from this relationship.

Therefore, Madam Wang had this idea.

”Mother?”

Lin Pingzhi raised his head, looking astonished.

Clearly, he didn’t know about this either.

”My identity makes it inconvenient to keep you, but now the Jianghu knows that Pingzhi has obtained the Evil-Exorcising Swordplay Manual. Under my protection, no one can snatch the Cultivation Technique, but it’s not guaranteed that someone won’t target you to threaten Pingzhi.”

Ning Yuan said solemnly.

Ning Zhongze, who was beside him, also nodded upon hearing this, ”Senior Brother is right. Madam Wang, you must think twice. This Jianghu doesn’t only have people from the Songshan Sect; various forces are keeping an eye on your whereabouts.”

”That’s right, Auntie. Don’t think that because you’ve been safe recently and no one dared to show their face, it’s not because of my father’s prestige. Those with ulterior motives have had to suppress them, but if you leave, I’m afraid my father’s prestige won’t be able to suppress their greed.”

”After all, the Evil-Exorcising Swordplay Manual is rumored to be the number one sword technique in the world.”

Yue Lingshan also spoke.

”This...”

Hearing this, Madam Wang couldn’t help but show hesitation.

”Mother, don’t hesitate! I won’t be at ease if you stay in Fuzhou alone.”

Lin Pingzhi suddenly stood up and said sternly, ”If you encounter any danger or anything happens in Fuzhou, wouldn’t your son regret it for the rest of his life?”

Lin Pingzhi suddenly knelt down.

This made Madam Wang even more hesitant.

”Pingzhi is right. You are his only remaining relative in this world. If you encounter danger, I’m afraid I won’t be able to restrain Pingzhi’s temper. If he acts impulsively...”

Ning Yuan sighed softly and shook his head. Although the rest of his words were unspoken,

Hearing this, Madam Wang’s heart tightened.

Because if something happened to her, Lin Pingzhi, who had finally calmed down, might go to extremes again.

Thinking of this, Madam Wang turned around and bowed her head, saying, ”Mr. Yue and Madam Ning are right. I returned to the manor and was overcome with emotion for a moment, forgetting the dangers of the Jianghu.”

”It seems I will have to rely on Mr. Yue and Madam Ning for the coming days. Thank you both.”

Madam Wang bowed slightly.

Her heart, however, was inevitably nervous.

”Madam Wang, what are you saying?”

Ning Yuan, with a serious expression, helped Madam Wang up, then suddenly said, ”Now that Pingzhi is my Disciple, and Chief Escort Lin entrusted you and your son to me before his death, and also had me tell Lin Pingzhi the Lin family’s greatest secret, it shows his trust in me, like a brother.”

”From now on, Madam Wang, why don’t you call me Big Brother, to avoid being too formal.”

Hearing this, Madam Wang was stunned, and Ning Zhongze beside her was also stunned. However, Ning Zhongze quickly smiled, ”Senior Brother is right. Since Madam Wang will be living in Huashan for a long time, calling us ’Mr.’ and ’Madam’ is indeed too formal.”

”From now on, we can address each other as sisters.”

”This...”

Madam Wang looked embarrassed, hesitating for a moment.

Ning Zhongze knew nothing, but Madam Wang herself was very clear that given her relationship with Yue Buqun, if she were to address Ning Zhongze as a sister, wouldn’t that be... ”Madam, are you perhaps looking down on Yue?”

Ning Yuan suddenly spoke again at this moment.

”No, no, no!” Madam Wang quickly came to her senses, waving her hands and shaking her head repeatedly, ”This humble one doesn’t mean that. This humble one just feels unworthy, so...”

As Madam Wang spoke, she saw everyone’s puzzled gazes and couldn’t help but feel a tightening in her heart. She immediately nodded, ”Mr., no, Big Brother Yue and Sister Ning, since you both elevate this humble one so much, wouldn’t it be ungrateful if this humble one didn’t agree? This humble one bows to Big Brother and Sister here.”

Madam Wang curtsied.

If she didn’t agree now, it might arouse suspicion.

After all, being considered a younger sister by Yue Buqun was a good thing.

No one could remain indifferent to that.

”Don’t worry, Younger Sister. Since Brother Lin entrusted you to me, I will certainly take good care of you and never let you suffer any grievances.”

Ning Yuan said with a righteous expression.

The others heard nothing out of the ordinary.

But Madam Wang heard an additional meaning, and she lowered her head slightly, whispering, ”Thank you, Big Brother.”

”Then let’s eat.”

Ning Yuan picked up his chopsticks, and the atmosphere at the table became relaxed.

Dizzy, nauseous, and sleepless, I haven’t slept all night.
