Chapter 764: Chapter 764: This Is Such a Rip-off!

"What? Going down the mountain?"

Broken Jade suddenly looked up, a face full of shock.

Master Yuheng smiled, "That’s right, going down the mountain. Didn’t you always want to go out and gain experience? This time, your master has approved!"

"Well..."

Broken Jade wanted to say that he had already sneaked down the mountain when the master was comatose, but he quickly swallowed the words back and said excitedly, "Great, thank you, Master!"

"Mr. Qi, I’m entrusting Broken Jade to you. Please take good care of him."

Li Qingmu’s mouth twitched as he listened. Why did it feel like he was being entrusted with a child?

He looked amusingly at Broken Jade, while Gui Ran noticed his face turning pig liver color, probably feeling quite frustrated!

"Wait, Master Yuheng, does You Su know Broken Jade?"

"When You Su left, Broken Jade was only seven years old, he shouldn’t recognize him. Besides, Broken Jade goes by another alias, ’Thousand-faced Young Master,’ he can change at will, becoming a completely different person!"

Master Yuheng said this while glancing at Long Yue, smiling gently, "Even though Mrs. Qi has changed her appearance, there are still some differences in voice and build, right? But Broken Jade is different. When he becomes another person, it’s not just the appearance, but also the essence!"

Resembling in form and spirit?

This is truly strange!

Long Yue couldn’t help giving Broken Jade an extra glance, he raised his head slightly, looking quite proud of himself.

"Broken Jade, be modest!"

"Yes, Master!"

"Mr. Qi, from now on, I’ll be counting on you!"

Master Yuheng stood up and bowed to Li Qingmu.

"Wait a second, Master Yuheng, You Su is so formidable that even your Tianxing Pavilion can’t deal with him. How can we?"

Is this a joke? Just saying a few empty words, without any practical guidance, how are they supposed to defeat You Su?

"Don’t worry, Mr. Qi." Master Yuheng leisurely walked to a cabinet, opened a drawer, and took out a thin booklet, "Here, take this."

"What is this?"

"It’s a mental method for training. To defeat You Su, relying solely on strength isn’t enough, you need to use your brain. This is the mental method You Su practices, you’re working on it too, right?"

Li Qingmu took it, glanced through it, and nodded, "Yes, but I only have the first half."

"Exactly, he doesn’t dare to give you the full version! Because if he gave you the whole thing, you might surpass him, which he doesn’t want to see!"

"Master Yuheng, you’re asking me to surpass him? Is this a joke?"

Li Qingmu didn’t want to complain; how long has You Su been practicing? How long have I? Not even close to a year.

Under such circumstances, to defeat him?

Isn’t that a fantasy?

Master Yuheng waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, that’s not necessary. If it were before, we indeed thought about finding someone with a higher talent than him, fully nurturing that person, hoping he could one day surpass You Su. But, that’s just wishful thinking, mostly impossible.

However, after seeing you, this method seems feasible; your talent surpasses that of You Su. Of course, in fact, it’s not necessary. Precisely because your talent is better, and you’re meticulous, I’m giving you the complete mental method so you can study it thoroughly and find a way to counter his martial arts."

This is the shortcut!

Li Qingmu was deep in thought.

"Of course, if you want to practice, you can!"

Master Yuheng stroked his beard and smiled.

Li Qingmu flipped through the mental method aimlessly and suddenly asked, "If I practice it, will there be any consequences? After all, this is the cultivation technique of your Tianxing Pavilion. If I just practice it, isn’t that inappropriate?"

"Oh, well, you could just join my Tianxing Pavilion!"

Master Yuheng smiled again, looking very comfortable. He’s a good candidate, and judging by the information, he’s someone with strong values, a good recruit.

Li Qingmu shook his head, "No thanks, I’m not interested in that, I just want to return to Dazhou..."

At this point, he suddenly stalled, as if... he’d already practiced.

You Su had taught Rong Si and him this cultivation technique, only it was just half of it!

Moreover, Li Qingmu discovered that this cultivation method was slightly different from what he was given!

His face changed instantly, even looking quite unpleasant, "He tampered with the cultivation method he gave me and my mother! You Su, that bastard!"

He was truly angry!

No wonder they were so prone to losing control, while You Su remained perfectly fine, it was all his doing!

However, Li Qingmu quickly thought of something. For You Su to be able to alter the mental method, and the altered method still being usable for cultivation, what kind of talent does that require?

No wonder they couldn’t beat him.

Seeing Li Qingmu’s shock, Master Yuheng sighed, "Now you should understand how desperate we are against You Su. He’s a rare genius in ancient history, unfortunately, with a twisted mind!"

Li Qingmu was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Actually, a lot of talented people have twisted minds."

Uh!

Master Yuheng and Heavenly Power Hall Master both looked at Li Qingmu awkwardly. This young man, spouting such unvarnished truth!

Long Yue, listening on the side, was startled. That State Preceptor You Su, had altered the internal cultivation method given to Li Qingmu? Would practicing it have any side effects?

She quickly asked the two hall masters her concern.

Master Yuheng: "Well... it’s hard to say. In fact, this cultivation technique has a name, ’Myriad Stars,’ and different people understand it from different perspectives, resulting in different outcomes!"

Li Qingmu was surprised, "Does the hall master mean that even if there are slight mistakes, it’s not a big deal?"

"Hmm, yes, it’s not a big deal, but there are severe issues too, it all depends on... your luck."

Long Yue was speechless, What kind of answer is this?

"This is a cultivation technique, if something goes seriously wrong, it could be fatal. This is too reckless!"

Long Yue was infuriated.

She was truly worried for Li Qingmu.

Master Yuheng calmed her, "Don’t worry, Mrs. Qi, the risk isn’t large. You see, Mr. Qi hasn’t had any issues, has he?"

"I did have a backfire once."

Uh!

Master Yuheng was about to go crazy; this guy really knows how to counter right after!

Couldn’t you wait until I finished speaking to retort? Why slap me in the face right when I was speaking?

"Phew..." Master Yuheng took a deep breath, suppressing his frustration, and said, "The problem isn’t big, considering that among those who practice this ’Myriad Stars,’ few have a smooth path."

Long Yue, "..."

This is too problematic, isn’t it?

"Your cultivation technique is poisonous!"

Long Yue fumed.

The two hall masters looked embarrassed, "Well... we’ve always practiced this cultivation method, backfiring is common."

"..." Well, can’t blame you, then.

After a moment of awkward silence in the room, Master Yuheng said, "Mr. Qi, study this cultivation technique thoroughly when you go back, try to find a way to counter his vital points."

"Okay, I’ll do my best!"

After both sides discussed a few things, Tianquan handed them a register, and Zhe Feng was assigned to escort them down the mountain.

As for Broken Jade, to avoid unnecessary trouble, he didn’t go down the mountain with them, instead planning to find Li Qingmu later.

And so, Mr. and Mrs. Long Yue left the Tianxing Pavilion’s gate.
