On the sixth day, the waiter of the inn finally brought a hunter to look for Chen Liu, saying that he had seen the Pusuqu snake that Chen Liu mentioned in a valley. This made Chen Liu overjoyed, and his efforts were finally not in vain.

"Brother Chenliu, what kind of snake is this Bosuqu snake?" Guo Xiang asked curiously.

"I just heard that this Bosuqu snake is useful for those of us who practice martial arts." After spending a few days together, Chen Liu had a good impression of Guo Xiang. He already had a good impression of Guo Xiang, so he didn't hide it from her. He said, "The gallbladder of the Bosuqu snake can increase the strength and internal energy of those who practice martial arts. Do you want to come with me to take a look?"

"Great!" Snake gall can increase a martial artist's internal strength and power. It's a good thing, and Guo Xiang has no intention of letting it go. If the snake gall is effective, she can ask her father to catch some later.

This was also Chen Liu's intention. He wouldn't stay in Xiangyang for long. His primary purpose this time was to search for Dugu Qiubai's sword tomb and see if he could find the Dugu Nine Swords. If not, he would seek out Dugu Qiubai to learn swordsmanship from him. The Bosuqu Snake was merely a sideshow. Chen Liu possessed the Beiming Divine Art and didn't really need the Bosuqu Snake. His ultimate goal was to find Dugu Qiubai. Therefore, before setting out to find the Bosuqu Snake, Chen Liu purchased a large amount of seasonings, food, and wine, hoping to cultivate a closer relationship with Dugu Qiubai. Of course, if he didn't find it, there was nothing he could do.

"Brother Chenliu, do you want to tell Sister Huang Rong?" Guo Xiang asked.

"Huang Rong." Chen Liu thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute, let's go and take a look first."

Since Chen Liu was not willing to tell Huang Rong for the time being, Guo Xiang did not go back to tell on them. Instead, she happily followed Chen Liu, the waiter, and the hunter out of Xiangyang and into the mountains outside the city.

After a long day, Chen Liu and Guo Xiang arrived at the valley the hunter had mentioned. There was a waterfall in the valley, and within it, a cave. It looked a bit like the valley where Yang Guo practiced his training in The Return of the Condor Heroes. However, there were no Divine Condors in the valley, nor was there Dugu Qiubai's tomb in the cave, and Chen Liu didn't find Dugu Qiubai either. The cave did appear to have signs of human habitation, but it had been a long time since then. It seemed Dugu Qiubai was no longer there, which disappointed Chen Liu.

In the mountains outside the valley, Chen Liu finally found the Bosuqu snake after careful search, and readily paid the money to the waiter.

The Bosuqu snakes move swiftly and are extremely difficult to capture, but Chen Liu's Lingbo Weibu technique made them a breeze. Finding the Bosuqu snakes proved difficult, and it took him a long time to find four. Chen Liu returned to the cave, dug out the snake gallbladders, and he and Guo Xiang each swallowed two.

"It's so bitter!" Guo Xiang frowned and kept drinking wine because it was so bitter.

"It's indeed bitter." Chen Liu frowned, and he quickly sat cross-legged to refine the medicinal power of the snake gall, while simultaneously attacking the seventh of the twelve meridians. However, Chen Liu's idea of ​​opening the seventh meridian with just two Bosuqu snake galls wasn't so easy. Chen Liu could probably feel his zhenqi and strength increase slightly, but the change wasn't significant, probably because the amount was too small.

After refining the gallbladder of the Bosuqu snake, Chen Liu and Guo Xiang began to wander the valley. A few miles in front of the cave stood a sheer cliff, resembling a folding screen. It was so high, perhaps forty feet, or over a hundred meters. Barely any vegetation grew on the cliff, its bare ground impassable. However, moss grew every few feet, dozens of them stretching straight up the cliff face. In some places, it was covered with short grass. Chen Liu, recognizing it as a relic of Dugu Qiubai, observed it carefully for a moment, then, using his Qing Gong skills, stepped on the moss and climbed up the cliff. Perhaps unfamiliar with the terrain, Chen Liu only climbed a dozen feet before falling.

"Brother Chenliu, is this left by someone?" Guo Xiang looked at the small pit covered with moss that had collapsed due to Chenliu's collapse.

"That should be it." Chen Liu took a breath and climbed again. After two or three attempts, he finally reached the top of the cliff. However, there was no sword tomb here, which made Chen Liu even more disappointed. It seemed that Dugu Qiubai was indeed not dead, but he just didn't know where he went.

However, although there is no sword tomb, there are sword marks left by sword energy on the platform on the cliff, which are probably left by Dugu Qiubai when he practiced sword here.

Chen Liu examined it carefully, thinking it was likely a sword mark left by Dugu Qiubai. He would try to get the system to register it. If it did, that would be great. If not, he had no choice but to find another way. Chen Liu decided to stay here for two weeks. If it still didn't register within two weeks, he would leave Xiangyang and head for Jin Dadu.

While Chen Liu was carefully observing the sword marks on the platform, Guo Xiang also climbed up to the platform on the top of the cliff along the hole made by Chen Liu.

"Brother Chen Liu, who left this sword mark?"

"He's probably a kendo master." Chen Liu responded casually. He wasn't sure if it was Dugu Qiubai, although the probability was very high.

Dugu Qiubai? The name clearly spoke of a master. Guo Xiang also observed carefully. Although Guo Xiang was young, she had systematically trained in swordsmanship since childhood, and under the guidance of a renowned teacher, her swordsmanship was far superior to Chen Liu's. After observing for a moment, she drew her sword and began practicing. At first, Chen Liu didn't pay attention, but as Guo Xiang practiced while thinking, he began to pay attention to her.

Guo Xiang is indeed very intelligent, and her understanding of martial arts is far superior to that of her dumb sister Guo Fu. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been captured by King Jinlun in the original novel, and King Jinlun would have wanted to pass on the Dragon Elephant Prajnaparamita to her. Furthermore, after listening to Master Jueyuan's Nine Yang Manual, she used it as a foundation to establish the Emei Sect, making it one of the six major sects in the Central Plains martial arts world.

As Guo Xiang practiced and deduce, she became more and more proficient in using the sword. Chen Liu also noticed that Guo Xiang wanted to use the sword marks to infer the moves that Dugu Qiubai used when he was practicing sword.

After an unknown amount of time, when Guo Xiang stopped practicing her counter-attack, Chen Liu asked, "Sister Xiang'er, can you teach me how to practice sword?"

"Okay!" Guo Xiang agreed readily.

Through her inner voice, Guo Xiang learned that Chen Liu didn't possess any martial arts skills other than his gong techniques and light skills. Of course, she had to pretend she didn't know, so after questioning him, she began teaching him the most basic sword techniques. To Guo Xiang's astonishment, Chen Liu mastered the technique almost instantly. After just a few repetitions, he was able to master it, becoming proficient and skillful in performing the sword techniques she taught him.

"Brother Chenliu is so awesome." Guo Xiang couldn't help but admire him.

"That's because Sister Xiang'er taught her well." Chen Liu said with a smile.

Guo Xiang giggled. Since Chen Liu could learn it quickly, she taught him the sword skills she knew. Chen Liu also reciprocated by teaching Guo Xiang the Lingbo Weibu.

Chapter 66 Running away from home

Although Guo Xiang is naughty on weekdays, she never stays out overnight. This time, she and Chen Liu went to the valley outside Xiangyang City, so she naturally would not go back at night, and Guo Juxia's house was almost in chaos.

Although Guo Juxia knew from Guo Fu that Guo Xiang was probably with Chen Liu, he was still a little confused. Chen Liu was actually quite a nice guy, not a bad person by nature. Although his martial arts skills were a bit lacking, he was tall and handsome. However, Guo Xiang was still a little too young, just a little over fourteen, not even fifteen. Although people in ancient times married at a younger age, with many marrying at thirteen or fourteen, wasn't this a bit too early? At least seventeen or eighteen, right?

Guo Juxia and Guo Fu went to the inn to find Chen Liu, only then did they know that Guo Xiang and Chen Liu had gone outside Xiangyang City to look for snakes, not as he had thought. This made Guo Juxia immediately relieved.

It was just that Guo Xiang hadn't returned for a long time since she left, which made Guo Juxia increasingly anxious. He even couldn't help but wonder if Guo Xiang had eloped with Chen Liu. It wasn't until a month later that Guo Xiang returned to Xiangyang.

"Where have you been for the past month?" As soon as Guo Xiang returned home, Guo Juxia called her over with a sullen face.

"Going to look for snakes!" Guo Xiang proudly pulled out three deep purple snake gallbladders and presented them to Guo Juxia like treasures, saying, "Dad, these are the gallbladders of the Bosuqu snake. Brother Chenliu told me that these snake gallbladders can not only increase a martial artist's internal energy, but also their strength. I've eaten quite a few snake gallbladders in the past month, and my internal energy and strength have increased significantly. I'm almost breaking through to the peak level of a post-natal master."

The gallbladder of the Bosuqu snake can indeed increase one's internal energy and strength, but consuming too much can also cause resistance. During the month Chen Liu and Guo Xiang spent in the valley, as they gradually learned the habits of the Bosuqu snake, they began to find more and more snakes. They would eat as many as ten a day, or as few as six or seven, sharing the meal. Within a month, their internal energy and strength increased significantly. However, after about ten days of consumption, the effect of the snake gallbladder began to wane, and Chen Liu realized that they had developed resistance to it. After twenty days, the effect was minimal.

Chen Liu, aided by the snake gall, finally opened his seventh meridian, achieving a breakthrough to the rank of a top-tier expert, and was even close to opening his ninth. Guo Xiang's gains were also significant. Her martial arts aptitude was already strong, and her father had bathed her in precious medicinal herbs since she was a child. As a result, at just over fourteen, she had already achieved the status of a top-tier expert, opening seven meridians. If Guo Xiang had followed her usual training schedule, it would have taken at least two or three years to reach the rank of a top-tier expert. However, thanks to the Bosuqu snake, she had already opened her ninth meridian in just one month and was currently working on opening her tenth.

During this month, Chen Liu had almost learned all of Guo Xiang's martial arts. After all, Guo Xiang was the daughter of the great hero Guo Juxia from Xiangyang, and Guo Juxia was a renowned master in the Song Dynasty martial arts world, not Zhong Wanchou from the Wanjie Valley. Guo Xiang was also very intelligent and had learned almost all of her father's martial arts. Guo Xiang had no reservations towards Chen Liu at all. Not only did she teach him the common martial arts her father had taught her, she even taught him his unique martial arts. Guo Xiang was willing to teach, so Chen Liu didn't hesitate to be polite. After all, he had also taught Guo Xiang the Lingbo Weibu, which was no worse than the martial arts Guo Xiang had taught him, and was even better. After learning Guo Juxia's unique martial arts, Chen Liu finally had more than just the Lingbo Weibu in his martial arts repertoire. He also had the Jingtao Palm and the Zhuifeng Sword.

Furthermore, Chen Liu and Guo Xiang worked together to reverse-engineer Dugu Qiubai's sword energy and marks and develop two Dugu Nine Swords moves: the Sword Breaking Style and the Palm Breaking Style. This was the reason Chen Liu stayed in the valley for an extra two weeks. Even with Guo Xiang's comprehension, it shouldn't have been this easy, but Chen Liu had a system. Therefore, Guo Xiang's comprehension combined with Chen Liu's system allowed the two to develop two Dugu Nine Swords moves.

Now Chenliu's system panel looks like this.

Name: Chen Liu

Race: Terran

Realm: Acquired First-Class

Skill: Beiming Divine Art

Martial Arts: Light Footsteps, Shocking Waves Palm, Wind Chasing Sword, Dugu Nine Swords (Incomplete)

Auxiliary skills: Primary Disguise

Weapon: Fine steel sword

"Can it increase internal strength?" Guo Juxia grabbed Guo Xiang's hand and injected a stream of Qi into her body. After a moment, he nodded slightly, a smile on his face. Guo Xiang's ninth meridian was already open, and even the tenth meridian was halfway open. If she worked harder, she might be able to break through to the rank of a top-level acquired master before she turned fifteen. This made Guo Juxia very happy.

"Is this the gallbladder of the Bosuqu snake? Did you eat this gallbladder to increase your internal strength?" Guo Juxia picked up a dark purple snake gallbladder and looked at it carefully.

"Daddy, please try it quickly." Guo Xiang urged.

At Guo Xiang's urging, Guo Juxia swallowed the three snake gallbladders and began to sit cross-legged to refine them, carefully sensing their effects. After he had refined all three, Guo Juxia discovered that the snake gallbladders could indeed increase one's internal strength and power. However, Guo Juxia was now a master, so the snake gallbladders had little effect on him, but they did have a good effect on the younger generation.

Although the effect of the snake gall was not very useful to him, Guo Juxia was very satisfied. After all, it could be used to train the younger generation in his family, such as his son, daughter, and apprentice.

Guo Juxia opened his eyes and was about to ask Guo Xiang where she had found the Bosuqu snake, but she was gone. He went to her boudoir, but couldn't find her either. Arriving at the family's martial arts training ground, Guo Polu saw Guo Juxia and hurried forward, handing him a note. "Daddy, this is what my second sister asked me to give you. She said she went to look for the snake with my eldest sister and Huang Rong."

Guo Juxia opened the note and saw a map with the valley where the Bosuqu snake was found marked on it. Knowing that the Bosuqu snake would be useful to the younger generation, and Guo Xiang taking Guo Fu and Huang Rong to search for it, Guo Juxia didn't care. He called his three disciples, Yang Guo, Wu Dunru, and Wu Xiuwen, over and said to Guo Polu and the three disciples, "Go back and pack your things, and bring a few changes of clothes. I will take you out to practice for a while."

"Yes, Father/Master." Guo Polu, Yang Guo, Wu Dunru, and Wu Xiuwen quickly agreed and went back to pack their bags.

After Guo Polu, Yang Guo, and the other two had finished packing, Guo Juxia gave his wife a word and headed for the valley with his four disciples. The valley was not far from Xiangyang City, and it took about half a day to reach there. However, when Guo Juxia arrived at the valley with his son and three disciples, they could not find Guo Fu, Guo Xiang, and Huang Rong. He immediately realized that he had been tricked by the three women, and he was furious. But now he wanted to find the three women again, but he didn't know where to look.

At this time, Guo Xiang, Huang Rong and Guo Fu had already ridden their horses to the capital of the Jin Dynasty.

Chapter 67 Li Mochou (Part )

After sending Guo Xiang back to Xiangyang, Chen Liu left Xiangyang and headed towards the capital of the Jin Dynasty.

The capital of the Jin Dynasty was roughly where Peking is today. The area of ​​the Jin Dynasty was actually not small, occupying a small piece of the north and the entire Northeast. However, because there were not many masters, and there was not even a master in the realm of heaven and man, the Jin Dynasty was now a vassal state of the Yuan Dynasty.

Chen Liu went all the way to the northeast. If he encountered robbers or bandits with strong internal energy, he would kill them to increase his internal energy. After passing Yingchang Prefecture and on the way to Tokyo Kaifeng, Chen Liu met a Taoist nun who was about 27 or 28 years old and riding a donkey. There were two little girls behind her. One of them was about 15 or 16 years old and had a beautiful face. From time to time, she looked back with some concern at the little girl who was about 12 or 13 years old following behind the donkey. Although the little girl of 12 or 13 seemed to have a limp and walked with a limp, she stared stubbornly at the Taoist nun who was riding the donkey leisurely in front of her, and her eyes occasionally revealed a fierce look. The Taoist nun also knew that the little girl of 12 or 13 hated her, but she didn't care.

[Huh? Could these three be Li Mochou, Hong Lingbo, and Lu Wushuang?]

Chen Liu saw the three people walking in front of him and listened to the crisp sound of the bell hanging under the donkey's neck, feeling a little surprised and confused.

"Who?" The Taoist nun, who was about 27 or 28 years old, suddenly turned around and looked at Chen Liu who was riding a horse and gradually approaching them. Hong Lingbo and Lu Wushuang also stopped and looked back at Chen Liu in surprise.

"Ah! I'm just passing by and accidentally disturbed the three fairies. Please don't blame me." If it were Li Mochou, Chen Liu would not be able to beat her now, so he quickly lowered his posture and tried to fool her.

This outfit, this donkey, this Taoist robe—it definitely looks like Li Mochou. Did Li Mochou just arrive here from Jiaxing? I just heard Guo Xiang say a few days ago that Li Mochou went to Jiaxing to seek revenge on Lu Zhanyuan, but was scared away by her father. Tsk, tsk, this Li Mochou is quite beautiful, and with her figure and face, she's a pure, lustful woman, tsk... But after being betrayed by Lu Zhanyuan, her personality changed drastically, becoming the feared female demon, the Red Snake Fairy. Before the love affair, Li Mochou was quite nice, but after the love affair, she's become so surly and cruel that she's not suitable for me.

Li Mochou: ...

Hong Lingbo: ...

Lu Wushuang:...

Lu Wushuang was filled with doubt and uncertainty. She seemed to be able to hear the man's inner thoughts. What surprised her even more was that she had no idea why Li Mochou wanted to kill her entire family. She only knew that Li Mochou had a grudge against her family. If what this man said was true, then Li Mochou was indeed pitiful for being betrayed by her uncle, but that was no reason for her to kill more than a dozen people in Lujiazhuang.

Lu Wushuang quietly observed Hong Lingbo and Li Mochou from the corner of her eye, trying to see if she was the only one who could hear this person's inner thoughts. However, she couldn't quite tell. Hong Lingbo's face was calm, her eyes flickering, but even a Grandmaster wouldn't be able to tell what she was thinking, let alone Lu Wushuang. Li Mochou was about to explode with rage, but because it was Chen Liu's inner voice, she was also a little confused.

Is Li Mochou heading back to the Ancient Tomb Sect? Or somewhere else? Speaking of which, this is the world of Zongwu, so Lin Chaoying shouldn't be dead, right? She wouldn't be able to steal the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra even if she went back, so she's probably not heading back to the Ancient Tomb Sect. It seems more like she's heading to Tokyo.

Li Mochou: ...

"Just passing by?" Li Mochou's expression remained impassive, yet she glanced at Chen Liu with a hint of doubt in her heart. "Comprehensive Martial World?" What did that even mean? And how did he know my master wasn't dead? Aside from the Ancient Tomb Sect, few knew about this. And how did he even know I wanted the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra? So many questions were floating around, leaving Li Mochou bewildered.

"Yes, yes, I'm going to Nanjing." Chen Liu nodded repeatedly. At the same time, he glanced at Hong Lingbo and Lu Wushuang from the corner of his eye and was immediately amazed.

[Fuck, is that Hong Lingbo? How did she look like that? She looks like a cow! Her face looks about the same age as Guo Xiang, but her breasts are simply huge, despite her childish appearance. They look like they're definitely G-cup, or even H-cup. It would be a real shame for Huang Rong, a little A, to see them. And she's a pretty good girl. Her personality is much better than her master's, and she's quite kind. It's a shame she was kicked in the stomach by her master, Li Mochou, and died. If I ever get the chance, I'll definitely take her home to keep her warm.]

Hong Lingbo: ...

Hong Lingbo's face suddenly flushed. He glanced at Chen Liu, then lowered his head slightly, seeming a little shy. At the same time, he was terrified. "Master kicked me in the stomach and I died?" What happened? Hong Lingbo quietly glanced at his master, and seeing her eyes looking back at him, he was startled and pretended to know nothing.

Li Mochou glanced at Hong Lingbo, her lips twitching slightly. She had no idea what her disciple looked like; even a chest wrap wouldn't have been enough to hold her in place. As for Chen Liu's story about her kicking her disciple to death, it must have been something Hong Lingbo had done to her. Furthermore, this was a stranger's story. She wanted to disbelieve it, but it also left her with a sense of doubt. Who was this person? Why did he know so much?

[Tsk, my damn good looks! I didn't expect Hong Lingbo to be shy the first time we met? Looks like I can take Hong Lingbo home. By the way, she probably wouldn't mind being a concubine, right?]

Hong Lingbo: ...

Concubine? Hong Lingbo felt annoyed and raised his head slightly to look at Chen Liu. He found that his face was very handsome. It seemed that being a concubine was not impossible.

[Oh, that lame girl must be Lu Wushuang. It looks like she was captured by Li Mochou not long ago. However, Lu Wushuang seems a bit old. Well, this is the world of Zongwu, anything is possible.]

Chen Liu couldn't help but grumble inwardly: "Shen Lang has become Shen Bijun's brother, Wang Yuyan and Wang Lianhua are cousins, Master Yideng has become Duan Yu's ancestor, Zhang Sanfeng is older than Huang Rong and Huang Yaoshi, and even Guo Fu, Guo Xiang, and Guo Polu have become Guo Juxia's daughters. What else is impossible? This girl is quite pitiful, but it's a pity that I can't save her right now. With Li Mochou's current strength, she must be at least a congenital master. I'd better run away and save her later when I have the chance."

"Who are you?" Another Zongwu World? Although Li Mochou didn't know what Zongwu World meant, she guessed that Chen Liu was either not from their world and knew a lot about their world, or he was just a delusional person. But Chen Liu looked very normal, not like a delusional person at all.

"Me? My name is..." Chen Liu was about to give his own name, but then he thought to himself, "This is the ruthless killer Li Mochou. I can't beat her. I'd better give a fake name first."

"Zhao Dabao."

Chapter 68 Li Mochou (Part )

"Zhao Dabao?" Li Mochou snorted and sneered twice.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Chen Liu nodded repeatedly.

"You're lying." Li Mochou snorted and said, "Tell the truth."

"Hehe, fairy, you really have a keen eye. My real name is actually Zhao Xiaobao, and Zhao Dabao is my brother."
