Demons and monsters wreak havoc: gain one new confidante every day.

Inside the room, Shen You sat cross-legged and began practicing the "Eight Transformations of the Golden Snake".

Suddenly, his bones cracked, and a golden snake-like phantom flashed across his body.

In an instant, he seemed to transform into a golden snake, coiling there, waiting to devour someone.

"I did it!"

As she slowly returned to normal, Shen You was in a good mood, even though she was a little out of breath.

These days, he eats a "Qi Gathering Pill" when he's hungry, observes poisonous snakes when he's tired, and during the day, Aunt Dou brings him a big meal. At night, Third Sister gently calls his name to enhance the effects of his cultivation, while also ensuring he gets a baby-like sleep and the added benefit of his "wise and intelligent" comprehension.

With such a multi-pronged approach, he had already perfected his "Golden Snake Skill" in just six days.

In addition, his vital energy was also filling his chest, ready to break through his heart's vital energy point and reach the second rank at any time.

However, the process of "rushing to the peak" is dangerous, so he plans to ask Old Ghost Huang for help.

"After all, I'm such a genius! You old man, you should at least show some appreciation, right?" Shen You thought fiercely to himself.

In addition to the progress in his skills and cultivation, Shen You also gained a preliminary grasp of the "Golden Snake Force".

That was a solid, tangible force, far more powerful than the original qi.

However, due to the limitations of his cultivation level, he could not release his power for a long time, and could only maintain it for a moment, which meant he could only unleash one move, "Golden Snake Force".

"But that's enough. This 'Golden Snake Force' will become my trump card!"

After all, the "Golden Snake Skill" is a technique that requires a latent burst of power, and only has the power of a single strike, which is in line with the purpose of the "Golden Snake Skill".

Shen You opened the current panel again.

Golden Snake Skill (Completed)

"One of the benefits of perfecting the 'Golden Snake Skill' is that it made my body more flexible, especially my arms, which received extra tempering and can twist to injure enemies."

Shen You pondered, "In that case, mastering other techniques should also yield considerable bonuses. For example, mastering the 'White Ape Stance' might even lead to the development of the 'White Ape Strength.' When I have time, I might as well practice those techniques as well."

Putting everything else aside, the "White Ape Force" alone was enough to make Shen You very interested.

"However, wouldn't practicing too many different types of internal energy lead to too much complexity?" Shen You hesitated again. "Nothing is ever truly mastered by trying to do too much at once. Should I really go and practice the 'White Ape Force' as well?"

After thinking for a while, Shen You made a decision: "I'll just go ask Old Ghost Huang! He's my master anyway, shouldn't he teach me?"

Shen You didn't hesitate and immediately got up to go to the high-rise building where Huang Yaoshi lived.

It was already night, and Aunt Dou's dinner had been delivered long ago. There were only two or three people in green robes still practicing hard in the training ground, and Tian Yi'er was one of them.

Since living in the same house as Shen You, Tian Yi'er has been inspired by Shen You's daily practice and has become even more diligent in her studies.

He has now achieved minor success in the "Qing Nang Jing" and has also mastered the "Xuan Yu Shou" technique, making him look like a completely different person.

Unfortunately, he remained timid and was always bullied, something Shen You couldn't control. It was alright at Huangfeng Courtyard, where Song Zhiqing would take good care of him, but outside, other Qingyi (female servants) would also bully him, and there was nothing Shen You could do about it.

"Xiao Tian, ​​practicing!" Shen You greeted Tian Yi'er and then went straight into the tall building in front.

The tall building was where Huang Yaoshi and his three white-robed senior brothers lived. Shen You walked in, casually looking around, and found the place to be quiet and elegant, quite a nice place.

"Wait a minute, I'm also Huang Laogui's disciple, why shouldn't I live here?" Shen You muttered to himself.

However, after thinking about it, he realized that living so close to Old Ghost Huang every day, constantly on edge, might not be a good thing. It might not be as pleasant as living with Tian Yi'er, so he quickly let it go.

"Why is there no one here?" Shen You looked around as she walked inside, but she didn't encounter anyone.

Presumably, this is Huang Laogui's residence, and apart from himself, no one else would come uninvited, so he wouldn't send a few people to guard this place and wait to welcome guests.

"Never mind, I'll look for it myself."

Shen You pursed her lips, but at that moment, she saw a white shadow flash in front of her, which seemed to be a woman's figure passing through the corridor.

"Hey, wait a minute, I need to speak with Huang Yaoshi!"

Shen You hurriedly caught up, shouting as she ran.

The woman hesitated for a moment before slowly turning around, looking at him with a strange expression:

"Are you... calling me?"

"Yes! You're all alone here, who else should I call if not you?"

Shen You approached the woman, took a closer look, and immediately gasped.

She turned out to be a stunningly beautiful woman, dressed in white, giving off a gentle, virtuous, and kind vibe.

She looks like the most gentle and beautiful wife, full of mature and quiet charm. I wonder who is so lucky to be her husband.

"Who are you?" the woman asked with a hint of curiosity.

"I am..." Shen You blinked and said, "...Master Huang's fourth disciple. Although I am a Qingyi, I am exceptionally talented and was accepted into Master Huang's tutelage. I have come here to pay my respects to him."

Although Shen You could call Huang Yaoshi "Old Ghost" in front of him, he instinctively tried to be more humble and polite when facing this woman of unknown identity.

"So you're the fourth one..." the woman smiled. "Come with me, I'll take you to your master."

She said she was leading the way.

Shen You looked up and examined the top of the woman's head.

Was it because he revealed his identity as Huang Yaoshi's disciple? His affinity with Huang Yaoshi was very high from the start!

Shen You followed and politely asked, "Excuse me, sister, how should I address you? And what is your relationship with Teacher Huang?"

The woman covered her mouth and laughed: "You cheeky boy, why are you calling me 'sister'? I'm old enough to be your mother. My name is Jingxin. Since you are Huang Yaoshi's disciple, then I am your master's wife."

Shen You's eyes widened in surprise: "So, you and Old Huang...?"

"Yes, he is my husband." Jingxin nodded and smiled.

Shen You was completely speechless.

Who would have thought that Old Huang would be so lucky to marry such a beautiful wife, especially since it's an older man marrying a younger woman. It's truly enviable!

"Master's wife, you look so young and beautiful, I really thought you were my older sister. I never expected you to be my master's wife." Shen You immediately seized the opportunity and began to flatter Jing Xin, taking advantage of the relationship with her master's wife.

Jingxin was amused by him and laughed heartily. Before they even arrived at Huang Yaoshi's residence, her affinity with him had already risen to over 60.
