Wild Dogs

Back in his room, Yang Fan clenched his fists.

"Hmph, you want to use me as a furnace? Don't you even know if you have the strength?"

He took a deep breath and summoned the small cauldron, wanting to see what changes Xiao Ling had made to the cultivation technique she had given him.

After opening the small tripod, the booklet that had been there before had become gleaming with gold.

Yang Fan hurriedly opened the booklet, and after only a couple of glances, he was overjoyed.

The evil techniques originally recorded in the booklet have now been made legitimate.

This technique not only retains the advantage of fast cultivation speed, but also eliminates all the potential health risks.

Yang Fan was extremely excited.

"Very well, didn't you want my cultivation to stagnate in the future? Then I'll give you a surprise."

He immediately began to study the technique, and after he finished, he copied it into a small booklet to pass it off as genuine.

After he memorized the new technique, he completely destroyed the new technique that Xiao Ding had improved.

Early the next morning, Yang Fan obediently went to the secret room.

Xiao Ling and Xiao Baihua were already waiting there.

Xiao Ling tossed a booklet directly to Yang Fan.

"Look, this is the secret technique of combined attacks."

"Regardless of whether you and Baihua are mutually in love, you must begin your cultivation from today onwards."

"I need to see results in a year, or I'll hold you accountable."

Yang Fan could only nod obediently.

After opening the booklet and reading a few pages, he realized that something was wrong with the technique.

Although this technique is described as a combined attack secret method, it is actually a dual cultivation secret method.

Once practiced, the cultivator's body will be completely transformed into a furnace, allowing the other party to absorb its essence at will.

Yang Fan sneered inwardly, but still obediently accepted the booklet.

"What if my junior sister Baihua and I can't be mutually in love? Wouldn't that be the end of us?"

Xiao Ling slapped the table again.

"Stop talking nonsense. Just do what I tell you to do. Why make it so complicated?"

Yang Fan could only nod reluctantly.

He studied the contents of the booklet carefully, adding several secret techniques at the end in addition to the previous exercises.

These secret techniques didn't seem very proper at all. After flipping through a couple of pages, I even found a kind of seduction technique in the middle.

It is said that practicing this seductive technique can enhance one's fragrance. Yang Fan only glanced at it twice before carefully closing the booklet.

"Alright, you can go down and study this combined attack technique in your spare time. By the way, how's your training going?"

Yang Fan felt a chill run down his spine and hurriedly nodded haphazardly.

"Rest assured, Your Highness, I will practice diligently."

"Alright, then you can start cultivating now. Feel free to tell me if you have any questions."

After speaking, Xiao Ling closed her eyes to rest.

Yang Fan had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue cultivating.

Several hours later, someone delivered the pills.

Seeing Yang Fan, who seemed to be in deep meditation, Xiao Baihua gently kicked him.

Yang Fan turned his head to look at her.

"So, have you thought it through?"

As Xiao Baihua ate the pills, she looked at Yang Fan with curiosity.

"Think clearly about what?"

Yang Fan responded somewhat impatiently.

"What do you mean you still can't figure it out? It's about becoming my husband."

"I've thought about it carefully."

"Your skills are not bad, and you're quite handsome, so you're barely a match for me."

"However, I'm making it clear beforehand that even if you become my husband, I will only contact you occasionally."

"I spend most of my time with my concubines."

Xiao Baihua spoke in a low voice.

Yang Fan simply ignored her and turned his head away.

Xiao Baihua immediately snorted coldly.

"Hmph, you little brat, you won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences. If you had just obediently followed my lead before, none of this would have happened."

She glanced up and, seeing that her mother hadn't done anything, shook her head and continued to rest with her eyes closed.

The day passed quickly.

Having obtained the booklet that could transform into a furnace, Yang Fan returned to his villa without delay.

He did the same thing, throwing the booklet into the small cauldron to see how it would handle the thing.

While we were waiting, a clear, cold voice came from outside.

"Disciple, how is your cultivation progressing?"

Yang Fan immediately tensed up and hurriedly took the booklet out of the small cauldron.

Seeing that the booklet hadn't changed, he put it back in his pocket, opened the door, and went out.

"Greetings, Master."

Yang Fan hurriedly bowed to Luo Changhe.

Luo Changhe waved his hand.

"Never mind, you don't need to be so polite to me."

Yang Fan still bowed respectfully.

Luo Changhe couldn't help but sigh.

"Now, in the entire Hundred Flowers Palace, you're probably the only one who still has some respect for me."

Yang Fanqian chuckled, but his gaze remained steadfast as he looked at Luo Changhe.

"I know my master's strength better than anyone else."

"With Master's potential, his cultivation will surely make great progress in the future."

Luo Changhe nodded and looked at him intently.

"I heard that the Palace Master gave you a secret cultivation technique a few days ago, is that true?"

Yang Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized what was going on.

He handed over both the combined attack technique and the secret method for refining the furnace.

Luo Changhe took it and glanced at it, then shook his head.

"Xiao Ling went too far."

He pointed to one of the booklets.

"I know this technique better than anyone."

Yang Fan raised an eyebrow and hurriedly bowed.

"What advice does Master have for me?"

Luo Changhe pointed to the cultivation manual.

"This cultivation technique is a secret method that the Hundred Flowers Palace once obtained, created by the former Blissful Daoist."

"This technique can raise one's cultivation level to a very high level in a very short time."

"But this kind of improvement comes at the cost of burning life essence and overdrawing life force, and the hidden dangers are too great."

He pointed to the secret manual.

"This thing is extremely rare; only those reckless juniors can practice it."

He glanced at Yang Fan and shook his head.

"You shouldn't practice this technique anymore."

He gently reached into his sleeve, pulled out a martial arts manual, and handed it to Yang Fan.

"From now on, just focus on this skill and don't worry about that."

Yang Fan was momentarily taken aback.

He never expected that Luo Changhe would secretly help him change his cultivation method.

Although he could not possibly cultivate the evil technique given to him by Xiao Ling, Yang Fan was still somewhat moved by Luo Changhe's actions.

Luo Changhe genuinely treated him as his apprentice.

Yang Fan was overwhelmed with emotion.

The Qingyang Sect, which he joined before, and the several Blood Path Sects he went to later, none of them truly regarded him as a disciple.

That's why Luo Changhe actually treated him as a disciple.

Yang Fan was somewhat moved.

In this palace, even one's own daughter doesn't really respect her father.

Only his disciple Yang Fan would show him respect, and even though Luo Changhe himself was aware that some of that respect was fake, he still accepted it willingly.

Yang Fan was at a loss for words.

Luo Changhe looked at the dual cultivation book in his hand again, and then frowned.

He tossed the booklet back to Yang Fan.

"You don't need to practice this for too long."

"Cultivating too much won't do you any good."

Luo Changhe dared not say some things aloud, but he was also secretly reminding Yang Fan.
