My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 367 - 241: The Death Issue

"You came to Chang'an, aren't you here to drag me back?"

"When did I say that?"

"Then what are you doing in Chang'an?"

"I'm your mother, I can come to Chang'an whenever I want. Are you trying to control me?"

...

In the small courtyard, mother and daughter looked at each other.

In the end, it was Su Qing who looked away first. After all, she truly owed Yiren an apology for this matter.

If it weren't for her taking Yiren away back then, Yiren should have such a good husband by now.

But now, all she could do was call him brother-in-law.

If she were Yiren, she would probably be infuriated too.

Just then, three figures walked in from outside.

Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.

Two of them were her senior sisters. Seeing the figure at the forefront, Su Qing ran over, surprised, and said, "Master, why have you come!"

As this figure appeared, even Song Yiren temporarily set aside her grievances towards her mother, walked over briskly, and said obediently, "Greeting, Ancestral Master."

"You little girl, it's been so long and yet you haven't returned to the sect to visit," the middle-aged woman said fondly as she patted her head, with a slight tone of reproach. Song Yiren playfully stuck out her tongue.

The middle-aged woman didn't dwell on this issue and turned to Su Qing, saying, "Such an important matter as improving the Yuqing Heart Technique, of course I had to come in person."

The Yuqing Heart Technique, as one of the Sanqing Sect's three top-level Heart Methods, was rarely cultivated due to obvious defects. If its flaws could be corrected, it would naturally be of great significance to the Sanqing Sect.

She turned to Su Qing and asked, "Where is the elder who improved the Yuqing Heart Technique? There are some things I need to ask him in person."

Su Qing, looking somewhat embarrassed, quickly pulled Li Nuo forward and said, "This is the Ancestral Master of Jiaren and Yiren, quickly pay your respects."

Then she introduced him to the middle-aged woman, saying, "This is Jiaren's husband."

Yiren's Ancestral Master was also Lady Mother-in-law's master, the sect leader of the Shangqing lineage of the Sanqing Sect, a Sixth Realm martial artist.

Li Nuo was seeing a Sixth Realm powerhouse for the first time and became solemn instantly, promptly cupping his fists and saying, "Greetings, elder."

The middle-aged woman nodded slightly and said, "Not bad, quite a handsome appearance, although the forces within your body are somewhat mixed. Studying various schools is not as good as specializing in one."

Li Nuo cupped his fists again, "Thank you for your advice, elder."

His inner strength was indeed mixed.

Legalism, Le Family, Thief School, Martial Path, he wasn't greedy for multiple schools; he mainly cultivated Legalism, and all other powers were gained incidentally during his cultivation process.

The middle-aged woman looked again at Su Qing and asked, "Where is the elder?"

Su Qing pointed to Li Nuo uncomfortably and said, "He is the one."

Not only were the two grandmasters of the Shangqing lineage stunned, even the middle-aged woman began to doubt her own ears.

To improve the Yuqing Heart Technique was to achieve what no ancestor in the history of the Sanqing Sect had managed to do.

Merely giving some pointers to Su Qing allowed her to defeat two Sword Path Masters of Shu Mountain in a duel, utilizing their most proficient techniques.

As the sect leader of the Shangqing lineage herself, a Sixth Realm cultivator, she wasn't able to achieve such a feat.

Thus, she had assumed that Su Qing was referring to an extremely experienced hermit, speaking of him with a degree of respect.

Unexpectedly, the "elder" she referred to was such a young man.

The middle-aged woman looked at Su Qing, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Understanding her meaning, Su Qing said with conviction, "Master need not doubt, the Yuqing Heart Technique was indeed improved by him, and my victory over the two from Shu Mountain was also his strategizing from behind. Don't be fooled by his youth; his insight into the Martial Path is profound, and I also feel ashamed in comparison..."

The middle-aged woman's expression returned to calm.

Her suspicions were pointless, the truth of the matter would be clear with just one question.

She took out a meridian map from her sleeve, spread it out over a stone table, and said, "Tell me, how did you think of modifying the Yuqing Heart Technique this way? Explain..."

This Cultivation Technique was modified by Li Nuo himself, so he naturally knew the purpose behind every change.

From the perspectives of both Medical Skill and Martial Path, he explained his thoughts in detail, including the purpose of every acupuncture point, every meridian, and answered all her questions one by one.

After he finished speaking, the middle-aged woman lapsed into a prolonged silence.

Somewhat impatient, Su Qing asked, "Master, what do you think? Is this method feasible?"

After a long while, the middle-aged woman nodded and said, "Based on what he has just discussed, the improved technique has an eighty percent chance of success. It may cultivate slightly more slowly than the original Yuqing Heart Technique, but it can completely eliminate the original method's flaws..."

Her silence was not due to doubts about the technique.

The focus was not on the cultivation world at large, but on the person before her.

His age could not be over twenty, yet the breadth of knowledge he had just revealed in their brief conversation made her, who had lived for one hundred and twenty years, feel deeply inferior.

Indeed, this world did possess true geniuses.

Though his strength was not high, his insight into the Martial Path had reached a terrifying level.

Su Qing's face lit up with joy as she asked, "Then should Jiaren begin to cultivate according to the new heart method now?"

Upon hearing this, Song Jiaren, who usually had a calm gaze, also showed a rare ripple of emotion.

The middle-aged woman said, "While there is an eighty percent chance of success, there is also a twenty percent uncertainty. The worst outcome would be that she remains at her current level of cultivation forever..."

She looked at Song Jiaren and asked, "Can you accept that?"

Without hesitating, Song Jiaren nodded slightly.

She had been considering this matter for a long time.

The middle-aged woman nodded and said, "If you have made up your mind, we can begin now. Dispose of the True Qi in your meridians, I will help you open those auxiliary meridians. After that, you just need to cultivate according to the new meridian map."

Li Mansion.

A room's door was tightly closed.

Li Nuo was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, glancing occasionally in the direction of the room.

Inside, his wife had already begun to cultivate the new Heart Method.

Though he had confidence in his own work, he couldn't help feeling nervous at this critical moment.

Su Qing, standing by his side, said, "Don't worry, with the Master there, nothing will go wrong."

By the stone table in the courtyard,

Li Anning was also very tense. She, of course, hoped that Jiaren could succeed. She had waited a long time for this day.

Phoenix, noticing her grip tightening, consoled, "Don't worry, have faith in him. Has he ever failed at what he set out to do..."

Upon hearing this, Li Anning's heart indeed eased a bit.

Her pretty face flushed from white to red, her gaze towards the room door filled with more expectation.

Song Yiren, holding Phoenix's other hand, was also very tense.

Unlike Li Anning, her tension was of a contradictory nature.

On one hand, she harbored great resentment towards Song Jiaren for stealing her husband.

But on the other hand, that was her sister who looked exactly like her, sharing the same bloodline; she also hoped that she could become just like any normal person...

An hour passed.

Li Nuo could hardly wait any longer, hesitating whether to force the door open and check inside when the door finally opened from within.

The middle-aged woman stepped out of the room, and Li Nuo immediately approached her, asking, "Senior, how did it go?"

The middle-aged woman also let out a sigh of relief and said, "I have successfully opened those auxiliary meridians, and the True Qi is slowly recovering. Indeed, without the Yin Cold Attribute of the Yuqing Heart Technique, but whether there are any other changes, we will need to observe further. Let her rest well for now..."

The fact that the True Qi could recover meant that the new cultivation technique was viable, the only issue being the speed of cultivation.

The new True Qi, without the cold attribute, will not affect pregnancy as long as she nourishes her body well.

As for other aspects... it naturally concerned how the cultivation technique influenced emotions.

Although the cultivation technique had been revised, most of the meridians remained the same; it was uncertain whether his wife could become like Anning, possessing the emotions that a normal woman should have.

Li Nuo entered the room alone and saw Jiaren lying on the bed, looking somewhat pale.

Opening meridians was not an easy task, and she seemed to be physically depleted.

Li Nuo sat by the bedside, holding her hand and asked, "How do you feel?"

Song Jiaren looked at him, a faint smile on her face, and said, "Not too bad."

Seeing her weakened state, Li Nuo said, "You rest well and don't talk."

Song Jiaren nodded slightly, her gaze fixed on him for a while before she suddenly said, "Husband."

Li Nuo stroked her forehead's stray strands of hair, whispering, "What is it?"

Song Jiaren said, "I have a question that I've wanted to ask you for a long time."

Li Nuo smiled and replied, "What question? Just ask."

Song Jiaren looked at him earnestly and asked, "Between me and Anning, whom do you prefer?"
