A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

He activated his Taoist mental cultivation technique, accelerating the absorption of the medicinal properties of the water into his body.

At that moment, he suddenly heard the system's voice in his ear.

[Detection of using medicinal bath to improve physical condition; Alchemy skill activated; Alchemy Fragment +3]

Bai Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up. Was there really such a good thing?

He was pleasantly surprised that a simple medicinal bath he took on a whim could activate a skill.

He took a look at this so-called elixir science skill and found it to be quite interesting.

Like the "Recognize People" skill, this skill also has no level or experience requirement.

Its main function is to help Bai Yuan quickly cultivate various spiritual herbs and medicines. After the herbs mature, it will add additional entries to them.

In other words, he can now use this skill to cultivate powerful herbs that did not originally exist in this world.

As for those medicinal herb fragments, they are different from ordinary fragments and can only be used on herbs.

He can add a shard of medicinal herbs before the herbs mature, thereby increasing the chance of the herbs acquiring advanced attributes.

The way to obtain elixir fragments is by cultivating herbs and using them properly. The number fluctuates randomly, but in general, the higher the level of the herb, the more elixir fragments you will get.

Bai Yuan soaked in the bath for about fifteen minutes, and he absorbed most of the medicinal properties of the herbs in the tub.

He felt much more comfortable.

He himself hadn't taken a medicinal bath for several years, and this long-lost feeling of comfort made him miss the days when he first started learning martial arts.

I got up, dried myself off, changed into clean clothes, and sat down to drink some tea.

Bai Yuan calculated the time and, feeling it was about time, ran to find Ji Mo Hua Xue.

Arriving at her door, Bai Yuan gently knocked.

"Who is it?"

"it's me."

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's voice, Ji Mo Huaxue in the room blushed slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

"Wait outside for a minute, I'm not finished washing yet!"

"Medicinal baths should not be soaked for too long, as prolonged soaking can be harmful to the body."

Bai Yuan didn't urge her, but simply reminded her from outside the door.

Hearing the noise, Ningyan from the next room came out wearing only a thin coat.

To Bai Yuan's surprise, she actually took off the mask she had been wearing, revealing her true appearance.

She looked particularly radiant after her medicinal bath.

This stunning beauty even made Bai Yuan slightly stunned.

"Ningyan, why did you take off your mask?"

"There's no one else here, or do you prefer me with the mask on?"

Ningyan narrowed her eyes and gave him a light, disdainful look.

Bai Yuan was slightly taken aback when he heard Ningyan say, "There are no outsiders here."

He looked at Ningyan's face and gently stroked it.

"I naturally prefer you as you are."

He didn't try to persuade Ningyan to wear the mask; in fact, he was genuinely happy that she was willing to take it off.

On the one hand, this shows that she not only recognized Bai Yuan, but also Ji Mo Hua Xue, and considered her a trustworthy person.

On the other hand, it also shows that her inner strength has become stronger.

He also didn't want Ningyan to wear that mask for the rest of her life because of the Luo Wang organization, never daring to take it off even when she was with her closest relatives.

It's fine as it is now.

Feeling the warm palm on her face, Ningyan didn't try to pull away and let Bai Yuan touch her.

"By the way, what are you doing here at this hour?"

She looked at him with a hint of hostility.

Bai Yuan laughed upon hearing this: "Why can't I be here? You know this mansion belongs to me!"

Upon hearing this, Ningyan couldn't refute it, but she didn't believe Bai Yuan didn't know that this wasn't what she wanted to hear at all!

Sensing a hint of killing intent, Bai Yuan knew that this was a signal that Ningyan had deliberately sent out to him.

After all, she possesses the ability to conceal her killing intent, allowing her to control it freely and make it difficult for others to detect.

Bai Yuan certainly wouldn't believe her if she said it wasn't intentional.

"Ahem. I'm just kidding. I'm here to see Hua Xue. She hasn't started cultivating her internal energy techniques yet, so the medicinal bath she just had won't have the best effect. That's why I'm here to help her absorb the medicine and nourish her meridians to lay a good foundation for her future."

Bai Yuan coughed twice, withdrew his hand, and explained his purpose.

He had not yet taught Ji Mo Hua Xue the internal energy cultivation method, so she could not use her internal energy to help her absorb the medicinal power in the water like the two of them.

It wasn't that Bai Yuan didn't want to teach her the cultivation method, it's just that he hadn't obtained it yet.

The four sword techniques provided by the system, including "Spring Flower," are simply sword techniques and do not include internal energy cultivation methods.

Only after collecting all four sword techniques and obtaining the complete [Jimo Sword Style] will she receive the corresponding internal cultivation method.

But now, after scattering all the fragments, he has only managed to gather three sword techniques: [Spring Blossoms], [Summer Breeze], and [Autumn Moon].

All the fragments have been used up.

The last remaining sword technique, [Winter Snow], will probably have to wait a while.

However, there's no need to rush. At the current speed at which Ji Mo Hua Xue is learning swordsmanship, it's still a long way off before she can master these three sword techniques!

It's good to let her build a solid foundation first.

Ningyan nodded slightly after hearing Bai Yuan's explanation.

At this moment, Ji Mo Huaxue, who was already dressed, opened the door.

At this moment, she was only wearing a plain white nightgown, with her waist-length hair casually draped behind her.

Perhaps because she was in a hurry to dry herself, her clothes were also slightly damp from the water droplets, and her delicate, fair skin could be faintly seen under her nightgown.

When Ji Mo Huaxue saw the two figures, she was stunned for a moment.

She pointed at Ningyan with some surprise and asked, "You... could you be Sister Ningyan?"

"Did you hear what we were saying?"

Bai Yuan was slightly taken aback; it seemed the room was partitioned.

The sound quality is a bit poor!

Ji Mo Huaxue nodded. She had heard Bai Yuan call Ningyan's name from inside the room, and she also heard the two talking about taking off their masks, so she knew that the two of them were outside.

She was indeed shocked when she came out and saw Ningyan's true face, after all, there was a big difference between their appearances before and after. However, combined with what she had heard inside the house, she could easily guess that the strange woman in front of her was Ningyan.

There won't be a third woman here besides her.

Judging from their reactions, she was certain of her guess, but she was still very puzzled. What exactly was going on?

Are you feeling confused?

Ji Mo Huaxue nodded quickly.

Bai Yuan and Ning Yan exchanged a glance and couldn't help but smile.

"Come inside, we'll tell you slowly. It's cold outside, so don't catch a cold."

He stepped forward and pulled Ji Mo Huaxue into the house.

The room still had a faint, lingering medicinal scent. Beyond the screen, Bai Yuan saw a still-steaming bathtub, with some clothes scattered around it that hadn't been put away yet.

Ji Mo Huaxue noticed Bai Yuan's gaze, and a blush immediately rose to her face.

She quickly pulled Bai Yuan into the inner room, feigning an eagerness to learn to hide her inner embarrassment.

"Tell me quickly what exactly happened?"

At this moment, she was genuinely curious as to why Ningyan wanted to conceal her identity.

Next, Bai Yuan and Ning Yan told her in detail about her original identity, how she met Bai Yuan, and how she was eventually persuaded and coerced by him to finally decide to leave the Luo Wang.

Bai Yuan also mentioned that the assassin from Luo Wang who tried to kill him twice was Ning Yan. When this past event was brought up, Ning Yan, not to be outdone, revealed that Bai Yuan knew the shameless move "Emotional Sword Technique" and had even used it to ambush her.

The two teased each other, making Ji Mo Huaxue laugh uncontrollably.

She hadn't expected that something so interesting would happen between Bai Yuan and Ning Yan; that "Emotional Sword Technique" sounded really fun.

She simply couldn't understand how Bai Yuan, who could perform such a beautiful sword dance, could also use such strange moves.

And that mask, she even made them show it to her, to see what it meant to be ever-changing. Wearing a mask can change your face, it's simply amazing!

Unfortunately, she lacks internal energy and cannot try it herself for the time being.

After hearing the story, Ji Mo Hua Xue took Ning Yan's hand.

"Thank you for trusting me so much and being willing to tell me these things. I will keep your secret!"

Ningyan felt a warmth in her heart and then returned the smile.

Seeing the harmonious relationship between the two, Bai Yuan smiled.

"Alright, it's getting late. If you have anything else to say, you can save it for later. I'll help Hua Xue nourish her meridians first."

Upon hearing this, Ningyan remembered Bai Yuan's purpose in coming here.

"I'll go back and rest now."

She knew that staying there would only disturb the two of them, so she left quickly.

Only Bai Yuan and Ji Mo Huaxue remained in the room.

"Although you just took a medicinal bath, there must still be a lot of medicinal power that your body hasn't absorbed. I'll channel some true energy into your body later to help you absorb the remaining medicinal power. You might feel a little uncomfortable at first, so you'll have to bear with it."
