Zhutian: Starting from being forced to bind

Compared with Mingyu Gong, Yihua Jieyu is relatively easier to practice. You just need to perform a set of palm techniques according to the operation of internal force. If you have enough internal force, you can perform it casually and you will gain one experience point each time.

The two moves, Dou Zhuan Xing Yi of the Metal System and Yi Hua Jie Yu of the Ancient System, are very similar and are often compared together. Only after practicing them did Chen Xi discover the difference between them. Both are abilities of rebounding and guiding. Yi Hua Jie Yu emphasizes the importance of being the first to arrive after striking later. Before the opponent attacks you, you interrupt the opponent's offensive routine and bounce the attack back or guide it to another direction. It is a melee palm technique.

As for Dou Zhuan Xing Yi, Chen Xi doesn't know it, but having read the original novel and watched the TV series, and now officially practicing martial arts, he can guess a little bit. It should be considered an ability of striking later, passively waiting for the opponent's attack, and then rebounding the attack. Based on this feature, Dou Zhuan Xing Yi can rebound flying props, such as hidden weapons, which is stronger than Yi Hua Jie Yu. However, it is relatively weaker in guiding attacks.

It can only be said that each has its pros and cons. Chen Xi also wants to research the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi, but he doesn't know how to mobilize the internal force, he has no idea. Besides, is the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi considered a palm technique?

If that counts, then there is absolutely no hope, as he cannot even learn the gold palm technique.

The wealth buff that was once exchanged finally has some use in this world. Apart from anything else, more than 30,000 taels of silver a year is a considerable income. If it is used to improve the situation of Huashan Sword Sect, it can be regarded as a timely help.

Money is only called money when it is spent. If you keep it in your hand, it is just a piece of waste paper.

Therefore, Chen Xi was not stingy. As long as the money was used on the Huashan Sword Sect, he would be happy to do so. He trusted Yue Buqun very much on this point. No matter whether this guy was a hypocrite or not, Yue Buqun did his best when dealing with the issue of the Huashan Sword Sect.

This is when Tomie Kawakami needs to appear. She has been hiding in the town at the foot of the Huashan Sword Sect. She is Chen Xi's maid. Her young master has gone up the mountain to learn skills, so it is natural for her to be responsible for the management of the industry at the foot of the mountain. In fact, there is no industry at all. She is just trying to launder the money brought by the wealth buff. Tomie Kawakami's expenses are not high. She can live well without Chen Xi by relying on her charm.

Kawakami Tomie went up the mountain once a month, with the excuse of giving money to her young master. Chen Xi then gave the money to Ning Zhongze, under the pretext of using it to develop the Huashan Sword School.

"Good child, it's amazing that you have such a heart." Ning Zhongze hugged Chen Xi, feeling very pleased. She felt that she had made the right choice to accept this disciple, as he gave her both skills and money.

For the sake of silver, Yue Buqun's attitude towards Chen Xi improved a lot. He also thought it through. Since his second disciple liked to practice beauty techniques, then let him do as he pleased. At worst, he could just keep him as a mascot in Huashan Sword Sect.

Because of Chen Xi, Kawakami Tomie also became an old acquaintance of the Huashan Sword Sect. In this world, in order to avoid trouble caused by the name, she was called Tomie, which gave people the feeling that her last name was Fu.

Kawakami Tomie sent a lot of silver every month. Such a loyal maid should be rewarded without disappointing her. After discussing with Ning Zhongze, Yue Buqun decided to make an exception and pass on the Jade Girl Sword Technique to Kawakami Tomie, which would give her some self-protection ability. In name, Kawakami Tomie became Ning Zhongze's registered disciple. She did not need to practice internal skills. Kawakami Tomie said that she knew some basic internal skills, which were enough for her to practice.

To put it nicely, this matter is to express gratitude to the loyal servant and the sword technique was specially granted to protect himself. To put it bluntly, it is equivalent to buying it with money. Kawakami Tomie paid silver tribute every month in exchange for the Jade Girl Sword Technique.

No matter what the real story is, everyone is happy. Chen Xi is still laying the foundation, while Kawakami Tomie has already started practicing swordsmanship. How the hell can they reason with this?

Chen Xi had no choice. To the outside world, he was just a child, and children cannot practice cultivation too early because it is a period of growth and the body needs sufficient nutrition. If all the nutrition was taken away by the internal force, there would be no way for him to grow.

Chen Xi was not afraid because he had a life to return. Anything he ate would turn into nutrition. In order to maximize the energy of the ingredients, he had to pretend to be interested in cooking so as to gain the right to be the chef of Huashan Sword Sect.

Three years passed in a flash. Linghu Chong and Chen Xi had safely passed the internship period, became regular employees, were recorded in the book, and became the true eldest brother and second junior brother of the Huashan Sword Sect.

Yes, just the two of them. During the past three years, even though Huashan Sword Sect had no shortage of money, Yue Buqun did not recruit disciples on a large scale. It was not that he did not want to, but that he did not dare. He needed to bide his time because he had long been aware of Zuo Lengchan's ambition. If Huashan Sword Sect showed any signs of rising, it would inevitably provoke a blow from Songshan Sect. Before he had the ability to protect Huashan Sword Sect, he could only continue to hide.

Yue Buqun's strength is about the same as Zuo Lengchan's. Even with Ning Zhongze's help, the Songshan Sect has more people and the Thirteen Guardians are not just for show. If a real fight breaks out, the Huashan Sword Sect will be gone in an instant.

The silver that Chen Xi paid as tribute could only be used in invisible places, such as improving the food and providing enough delicious food and drink. Even though supplies were scarce in ancient times, as long as there was enough money, good things could still be bought.

Three years of rapid development have made Yue Buqun and others stronger than in the original plot timeline. This is due to the "Five Animals Health-Preserving Exercise" and the silver. Only by eating well can one have a good body.

After becoming a formal disciple, Yue Buqun finally began to teach the practical stuff, the first of which were the Huashan Heart Method and Huashan Sword Method, which are considered the foundation of the Huashan Sword School. Only when the foundation is laid, one is qualified to learn subsequent skills.

As for Qinggong, it is not yet time to do so. One needs to have a certain amount of internal strength before being qualified to practice it.

Chapter 102: Magical Body Movement

Linghu Chong went back to practice swordsmanship in high spirits. As the saying goes, everyone has his own preferences. This guy's talent in swordsmanship is really high, and his preference is also very obvious. Linghu Chong is like a person with ADHD who can't sit still. He is not very interested in internal strength, but just likes swordsmanship.

Fortunately, there is no Sword Sect now, otherwise Yue Buqun would be so angry that he would die.

Chen Xi was also very happy. He didn't have much idea about Huashan swordsmanship. What he cared about was the maximum level reward. He didn't know whether it would be the same as the swordsmanship in the other world, which would further improve his swordsmanship talent after reaching the maximum level.

Chen Xi also had to admit that he was not as talented as Linghu Chong in swordsmanship, but it didn’t matter. If the quality was not enough, he could make up for it with quantity, which would sooner or later lead to a qualitative change.

He learned all the sword techniques that could be learned in the Huashan Sword School and improved his sword talent time and time again. He didn't believe that he would never be able to compare with Linghu Chong.

As for the most powerful swordsmanship in "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", the Dugu Nine Swords, Chen Xi is not thinking about it, not because he doesn't want to, but because he knows himself well. Even if he knew about the opportunity that Linghu Chong could get, it might not be useful to him, and the Dugu Nine Swords might not be suitable for him. The fact that Feng Qingyang likes Linghu Chong may not be without his personality factors. Perhaps only a bohemian mentality is the most suitable. He, Chen Xi, is not good enough because he thinks too much.

The Dugu Nine Swords emphasizes attack without defense, advance without retreat. When fighting, it is more like an intuitive and free and easy approach, not sticking to any moves at all. You can use whatever you want and break whatever the enemy uses.

Chen Xi really didn't have this kind of mentality. He was always calculating, even in battle. Even if he managed to learn the Dugu Nine Swords, he might not be able to bring out the true power of this sword technique.

Don't let the time pass and his Dugu Nine Swords become like the Exorcism Sword without castration, which would be laughable.

It only cost 10,000 soul points to exchange for Mingyu Gong. He still had some in stock in the Zhan Mei world, so he was considering what to exchange for.

In terms of demand, the first thing that comes first is body movement, not lightness skill. There is a difference between the two. Body movement emphasizes moving around and is used in combat, while lightness skill emphasizes speed and is not so flexible.

He has no shortage of speed skills, as he has the Shave. The Huashan Sword School's lightness skills are derived from the Quanzhen Sect. The function of the Golden Goose Skill is the same as the Moon Step. It can be said that the Huashan Sword School's lightness skills are of no use to him, so it doesn't matter whether he learns it or not.

It has both speed and flying ability, but lacks agile body movements. Chen Xi searched the mall and actually found one, a magical body movement from "The Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty".

Looking at the description of the skill, the effect is equivalent to Spiral Nine Shadows. When activated, it will form a phantom to confuse the enemy, giving a sense of déjà vu of the Afterimage Fist.

The exchange conditions are the same as those for Mingyu Gong, which is a random gift package. It means that after learning this body movement, he will no longer be able to master the gold-based light skills, such as Lingbo Weibu, which he really likes.

Chen Xi's soul points are less than 20,000. If he redeems the Phantom Demon Body Skill, it will not be enough for him to redeem it again, unless he goes down the mountain to kill people.

There is no rush for this. Apart from anything else, there are plenty of believers in the Sun and Moon Sect who can become his nourishment. He only needs to exchange them after he has completed practicing all the swordsmanship of the Huashan Sword Sect.

In this way, all the sword techniques of Huashan Sword School are useless. The only function is to reward him at the maximum level, to enhance his swordsmanship talent, and to nourish the strongest sword technique he exchanged for. Generally speaking, it is still worth it.

It has been decided to exchange for the Phantom Demon Body Skills. The excuse to the outside world will still be the same old one, that it is a family inheritance.

The exchange had just been completed when the little sticky guy came over. Perhaps because they were closer in age and Chen Xi was cuter, Yue Lingshan, who was obsessed with looks, liked to hang around him. The two of them had spent the longest time together in the past three years and had the deepest feelings.

“Second Brother, here I come~~” Yue Lingshan changed her name after Chen Xi officially became his disciple. Although she was less than 6 years old, she was very energetic.

The 11-year-old Chen Xi is the royal chef of Huashan Sword Sect and also the future housekeeper. Currently, Ning Zhongze is in charge of household affairs, and he will be in charge of everything in the future.

In Yue Buqun's arrangement, Linghu Chong is the future leader and the external face of the sect, and Chen Xi is the future steward, responsible for all affairs of the sect. This disciple who practices beauty skills should not be sent out as much as possible.

"Second Brother, what delicious food have you made?!" Yue Lingshan rushed into the kitchen, her big eyes blinking with anticipation.

Chen Xi likes her very much. He thinks the little girl is adorable. Thinking of his former son, he feels tired.

"I can make whatever you want to eat." Chen Xi touched Yue Lingshan's little head lovingly.

"Hehe~ Then I want to eat cake."

"Okay!" Chen Xi started working without saying a word. This thing was not difficult, and the oven had already been built.

While Chen Xi was busy, Yue Lingshan sat on a stool beside her, swinging her short legs, looking at Second Senior Brother happily. At such a young age, she didn't understand love, she only knew that Second Senior Brother was the best.

Not long after, Ning Zhongze also came. She saw the two little ones from afar and she smiled like a mother-in-law. To be honest, she really liked Chen Xi, but her husband had different ideas.

Yue Buqun's plan was to make Linghu Chong the future leader and Yue Lingshan marry Linghu Chong, but the reality developed in a different way. Chen Xi and Yue Lingshan had a better relationship and the two could be considered childhood sweethearts.

Where is Linghu Chong?

A silly boy, he had little contact with Yue Lingshan, so even though he was 13 years old and in puberty, he didn't have the thoughts that a teenager should have. Compared with girls, he was more interested in wine and had secretly drunk it a long time ago.

Yue Buqun was also helpless about this. What could he do?

You can't teach Linghu Chong how to pursue your own daughter step by step, right?

In addition, there is another thing that bothers Yue Buqun, and that is the relationship between the two disciples. It is purely a superficial friendship and there is no sense of closeness at all.

The personalities of Linghu Chong and Chen Xi are too different. The former is like a living monkey who prefers to move rather than be quiet, while the latter prefers to be quiet rather than move. The two little brats can't play together at all. Over time, they are busy with their own things. Chen Xi has always had the proper respect for his eldest senior brother, but as for personal feelings, there is basically nothing. In the Huashan Sword Sect, Chen Xi only cares about two people, his future wife Yue Lingshan, and his master's wife Ning Zhongze, who has been kind to him.

Chen Xi also respects Yue Buqun. He treats him like a father and respects him as a master. There is no such thing as closeness. The conversation between master and disciple is almost as good as that between a monarch and his subjects.

This led to a disagreement between Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze regarding Yue Lingshan's future marriage, and neither could convince the other.

After the cake was baked, Yue Lingshan sat there eating happily, and she became like a little cat while eating. Chen Xi helped to wipe it clean in a doting manner, and Ning Zhongze couldn't help but smile like an auntie when he saw it.

On the other side, Linghu Chong was still running wildly all over the mountains, and no one knew where he got so much energy from.

After Ning Zhongze came over, Chen Xi stood up and saluted obediently.

"Please sit down." Ning Zhongze waved his hand and sat next to his daughter. Chen Xi was considerate enough to help hand him a piece of cake.

Yue Lingshan also eagerly helped to get the fork and handed it over with a playful smile: "Mom will eat too."

Ning Zhongze ate the cake leisurely and watched his daughter go out to play after eating. There was no entertainment, just swinging on the swing. Yue Lingshan sat on it and Chen Xi pushed her patiently. The air was filled with Yue Lingshan's happy laughter.

As a woman and a mother, Ning Zhongze could see that Chen Xi really loved and doted on his daughter. It could be said that marrying such a man would be happiness. She secretly made up her mind that she must convince her senior brother.

In ancient times, people would be engaged at the age of 12 or 3, and married at the age of 15 or 6. It is a bit early to consider it now, but it is not abrupt. The main thing is that the follow-up arrangements should be made in advance. It is impossible to decide to marry Linghu Chong but stay with Chen Xi all the time. If the childhood sweethearts with deep feelings are abruptly separated, won’t the daughter hate her parents? Chen Xi will also be alienated because of this.

That night, another quarrel was heard in the bedroom of Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze. Both sides held their own opinions and neither could convince the other.

There were still some results. Yue Buqun took a step back and, according to Ning Zhongze's suggestion, let his daughter make her own choice. If his daughter liked Chen Xi, then parents should not stop her.

Yue Buqun had no better idea and could only compromise, thinking about going back to give Linghu Chong some advice and asking him to spend more time with his daughter to help them develop a relationship.

Linghu Chong went there obediently. In fact, his personality could really get along well with Yue Lingshan's. They were both energetic and active. But he was missing the most crucial thing: no snacks.

Yue Lingshan was raised to be a foodie by Chen Xi. In order to win her favor, playing with her is not important, feeding her is what is important. As a result, she is just like a green tea girl. When playing, she thinks of Linghu Chong. After playing, she abandons the eldest brother very decisively and runs to find the second brother, waiting to be fed by him. As for the eldest brother, she had long forgotten him. He was just a playmate.

Linghu Chong was completely unaware and still thought that he and Yue Lingshan were getting along well. Yue Buqun also didn't notice the problem. Only the meticulous Ning Zhongze saw it, but she said nothing.

When Chen Xi is not with Yue Lingshan, he is practicing. Huashan swordsmanship is not difficult. He will get some experience points every time he performs the swordsmanship. He doesn't even need to mobilize his internal strength. It is much faster to practice than transplanting flowers and jade.

Although Mingming Wan had practiced for three years, Huashan Swordsmanship and Yihua Jieyu reached the maximum level at the same time. Chen Xi also obtained two maximum level rewards again. Just as he expected, his talent in swordsmanship improved.

However, he was surprised by the maximum level reward of Yihua Jieyu, which turned out to be Dou Zhuan Xing Yi. Since it was a reward, it broke the shackles of restriction and integrated the operation mode of Dou Zhuan Xing Yi into Yihua Jieyu. In this way, his move became more perfect. No matter whether it was melee or flying props, he could bounce them back, or guide the attack to other places. It was a combination of the strengths of both to form a new ability, but it was still called Yihua Jieyu.

In terms of internal strength, Mingyu Gong has not yet reached the maximum level, and it still gives 2 experience points per day, but the effect is already very obvious. He has a lot of internal strength, and it has the attribute of ice, but he hides it well and doesn't let other people find out. The external manifestation is that his skin is getting whiter and whiter. Chen Xi has a hunch that when his Mingyu Gong is perfected, he might really become a white person with a white complexion, but with all the delicacy of a yellow person.

Chen Xi was also worried about this. How should he explain all this after returning to reality?

Fortunately, the golden finger gave the answer. It doesn’t matter. This change will happen little by little and will not turn white suddenly.

But the necessary preparations still need to be made. At least Chen Xi needs to take measures to reduce direct sunlight exposure, which can explain why his hair is gradually turning white.

Saitama also continued his training, which he said was to strengthen his body. Linghu Chong was once curious and followed him to train for a while, but found it was of no use, so he gradually gave up.

Only Chen Xi can obtain the effect of all attributes +1. These attribute points are accumulating, and they will be restored when he turns 18.

After finishing the Yihua Jieyu and Huashan swordsmanship, Chen Xi is going to work on the Huanmo body technique next. As for the other swordsmanship of Huashan sword school, he will have to wait and see.

Chapter 103 Growing up

Yue Buqun knew that he had to hide, but didn’t Chen Xi know that?

Because of his proficiency, he was able to practice Huashan swordsmanship very quickly, but his talent in swordsmanship was not as good as Linghu Chong's. How could he have mastered it first?

Chen Xi needed to hide and let Linghu Chong fight in the front. Anyway, Yue Buqun would teach the Huashan Sword School's swordsmanship to the two of them in the end, so he was not in a hurry at all.

Five years after arriving at Huashan Sword Sect, Yue Buqun began to recruit disciples, the same ones as in the original novel. However, he did not recruit all of them at once, and probably they came in batches of three or two.

Chen Xi took the position of the second senior brother, so Lao Denuo could only be the third. As for why he accepted such an old disciple, he guessed that it was Yue Buqun's intention.

Zuo Lengchan was cunning and sly, and Yue Buqun was no less cunning than him. It was very likely that Yue Buqun had seen through Lao Denuo's arrival, so he took advantage of the situation and captured him.

It is much better to have a spy who knows the inside story around you than to send him away. What if someone sends another one?

Lao Denuo was not qualified to learn the "Five Animals Health-Preserving Exercise". Others were relatively secretive when they were exercising, and no one dared to peek at others practicing martial arts. This was a big taboo, not to mention that without the corresponding breathing method, he could not learn it.

Yue Lingshan was well taken care of by Chen Xi and had enough nutrition. When she was eight years old, Chen Xi secretly taught her Ming Yu Gong and Yi Hua Jie Yu, but did not teach her Qing Gong because she needed Jin Yan Gong more.

The topography and mountain appearance of Mount Hua are not very good, and it requires light skills with strong vertical ability. The Golden Goose Skill is the most suitable. Without this light skill, you cannot go to many places. Chen Xi does not need to have the Six Navy Styles, but Yue Lingshan can't do it.

Ming Yu Gong and Yi Hua Jie Yu became a little secret between the two. Yue Lingshan told no one, not even her own mother, but it was discovered in the end.

Whether a person has internal energy or not can be known with a little investigation. Yue Buqun was busy with the affairs of his sect and didn't look after his child much, so he didn't notice it. It was Ning Zhongze who discovered it.

Faced with irrefutable evidence, Yue Lingshan had no choice but to tell everything. However, she did not tell anyone how she practiced the relevant mental and palm techniques, as she had sworn to keep it secret.

Ning Zhongze didn't know what to say. This matter had its pros and cons. For girls, Mingyu Gong was indeed very good. It could beautify the skin and make the skin whiter, but... this was a beauty technique.

In the eyes of Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze, Mingyu Gong is used for beauty. They have no idea how powerful Mingyu Gong is. But seeing their daughter so happy, Ning Zhongze couldn't bear to destroy Yue Lingshan's internal strength. In the end, he sighed and let it be.

Anyway, Yue Lingshan is the daughter of the head of the sect, so she doesn't need to be very strong. There are plenty of people who can protect her safety. As long as she doesn't run around down the mountain, it will be fine for her to stay on Huashan Mountain. It's not impossible for her to whiten her skin.

Mingyu Gong is also an internal skill after all. Even if it is not as good as Huashan Heart Method, it is at least much better than the common ones.

Ning Zhongze could only comfort himself in this way, and privately told Yue Lingshan the origin of Mingyu Gong: "My girl, you have to know that it is Chen Xi's family internal energy."

Yue Lingshan blinked and didn’t understand.

"The so-called family heirloom means that it can only be passed down to one's family. You and Chen Xi are not from the same family."

At this moment, Yue Lingshan understood and immediately retorted: "How can it not be?! Second Senior Brother has long said that he will marry me when I grow up."

Ning Zhongze: "???"

No, what's going on?

The two kids decided to spend their lives together in secret?

"Wait a minute." Ning Zhongze rubbed his head and asked, "When did you say that?"

"Hmm... let me think about it." Yue Lingshan thought for a while and said, "When I was 6 years old."

"Then why did you suddenly talk about this topic?"

"Because I always look for the eldest brother to play with me, I was afraid that the second brother would be unhappy, so I asked him."
