Chapter 74: True Fire Eye-Training Technique!
"This... this..."
As early as when the situation was in his favor, Jiang Ye wanted to withdraw in time.
But that Great Sun Heavenly Flame true qi was too overbearing, striking like lightning, but the withdrawal was a beat slow.
It was this beat of difference that caused the awkward situation in front of him.
Chirp! Chirp! Chirp...
Wen Yueyao's scream startled a few birds resting in the distance, flying toward the sky.
She was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, "whoosh" withdrawing her leg, hopping backward on one foot for several steps, her pretty oval face full of disbelief and flushed shyness.
Only.
There was more frustration in her beautiful eyes.
Clearly, she hadn't expected that she would be in a losing position in just one move.
"The gap... is it really this big..."
The girl muttered softly, her head drooping slightly, looking at her feet, silent.
"I didn't break this girl's Dao heart, did I..."
Jiang Ye shook his head slightly.
He didn't know how to comfort this girl either.
After all, he really didn't use any force...
However, this also gave Jiang Ye a clearer understanding of the strength of his Great Sun Heavenly Flame true qi.
Being the same fire-element true qi, it could actually easily crush the Furnace True Fire.
No wonder that old man Luo Song was so shocked and appreciative after knowing he had successfully embraced the pill with this Qi-Nurturing Method.
This Great Sun Heavenly Flame was indeed overbearing.
"Miss Wen, actually..."
Looking at the silent Wen Yueyao, Jiang Ye coughed lightly and was about to speak.
The girl who had been drooping her head suddenly lifted it, the frustration on her face having already faded, replaced by that familiar hearty smile.
"Old Jiang, you don't need to comfort me." She grinned, revealing those neat white teeth: "I'm not someone who can't afford to lose."
Jiang Ye smiled faintly.
This girl, her ability to adjust her mindset is quite fast; she is indeed a genius who could embrace the pill after only seven days of nourishing Qi.
Immediately after, the girl coughed lightly, her voice as thin as a mosquito, asking extremely quickly, "It shouldn't smell, right..."
After finishing, a hint of faint shyness flashed on her pretty oval face, even her earlobes turning slightly red.
"Ah..."
Jiang Ye was stunned.
Then he reacted, coughed lightly as well, and replied with a calm expression: "Doesn't smell, doesn't smell..."
Hearing this, Wen Yueyao seemed to heave a sigh of relief, and the shyness on her face faded a bit.
"Miss Wen, let me help you get a new pair of shoes."
Jiang Ye pondered for a moment before speaking softly.
He glanced obscurely at Wen Yueyao'
It wouldn't be difficult to borrow a pair from Chen Lili.
"No need for such trouble."
Wen Yueyao gave a hearty laugh and actually bent down, taking off the shoes and socks from her other foot as well.
She stood barefoot on the ground, completely unbothered, and even stomped a few times, nodding in satisfaction.
"This is much more comfortable."
The young girl smiled, her expression as bright as before, as if the embarrassment and frustration from just a moment ago had never happened.
Jiang Ye nodded inwardly.
This girl, her way of doing things is still so efficient.
Moreover, being able to adjust her mindset so quickly after a setback is truly impressive.
This temperament is even more rare than her astonishing talent.
"Miss Wen, let's end the sparring here."
Jiang Ye said with a faint smile.
"It was I who brought this humiliation upon myself."
Wen Yueyao shook her head slightly, then looked at Jiang Ye with full admiration, her eyes sparkling:
"Old Master Jiang, everyone in the sect says I am gifted and a genius."
"But in my opinion, you are the true genius!"
"It's a pity that you wasted so many years in a small county town before..."
As Wen Yueyao spoke, a look of regret similar to Luo Song's appeared on her face.
"It's not actually too late for this old man to start exerting myself now."
Jiang Ye's smile carried a sense of detachment that saw through the world.
Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Wen Yueyao's beautiful eyes, and the way she looked at Jiang Ye held even more heartfelt admiration.
"By the way, Miss Wen, this old man has a question I'd like to ask you."
Jiang Ye suddenly remembered something and asked.
He had seen Luo Song today and couldn't stop thinking about that secret technique where fire erupted from his eyes.
The Wen Yueyao before him might know something about it.
"Hahaha, Old Master Jiang, just ask."
Wen Yueyao laughed readily.
"Miss Wen, this old man went to see Liu Fengzhu Luo today, and I saw fire suddenly erupt from his eyes..."
Jiang Ye spoke unhurriedly, recounting the matter in detail.
"Oh, I know that."
After listening, Wen Yueyao nodded slightly and said: "That is a secret technique of the sect, the 'True Fire Eye-Refining Art,' stored on the third floor of the Scripture Pavilion."
"The 'True Fire Eye-Refining Art'?!"
Jiang Ye murmured softly, firmly imprinting the name in his mind.
"Old Master Jiang, are you interested in this secret technique?"
Wen Yueyao saw through his intentions, but her voice took on a hint of solemnity:
"This secret technique has another nickname in the sect: the 'Blinding Art'."
Hearing this, Jiang Ye was slightly startled, "Why is it called that?"
Wen Yueyao continued: "The core of this secret technique is to use one's own internal fire to refine the eyes, giving them extraordinary vision. Once practiced to a certain realm, one can even use the fire in the eyes to burn opponents; it is extremely rigid and yang, and can be called the nemesis of evil paths."
"The problem is that this secret technique is extremely difficult to master because the eyes are the most fragile part of our human body."
"Using true fire to refine the eyes—if one is not careful, it can lead to the eyes being burned blind..."
"As far as I know, in the entire Tianyang Peak, the only one who has successfully practiced this secret technique so far is the Liu Fengzhu himself."
She looked up at Jiang Ye, her eyes filled with lingering fear:
"The last victim was Senior Brother Zheng Feng; I heard he was also very interested in this secret technique, and as a result, he almost blinded himself."
Jiang Ye was silent for a moment, lost in thought.
Wen Yueyao wanted to advise him not to take the risk, but the words died on her lips.
Thinking of how Jiang Ye was even able to master the "Great Sun Heavenly Flame Qi-Nourishing Method"...
With such astonishing comprehension, perhaps there really is a possibility he could master it.
She said softly: "Old Master Jiang, if you are going to practice it, you must be very careful."
"Many thanks to Miss Wen for clearing up my confusion; this old man will certainly be careful."
Jiang Ye nodded politely to the young girl, "I just don't know how many sect contribution points are needed to exchange for this 'True Fire Eye-Refining Art'?"
After pondering for a moment, Wen Yueyao said: "Secret techniques stored on the third floor all require thirty thousand contribution points, about the same as the Qi-Nourishing Method."
"I see."
A flash of helplessness crossed Jiang Ye's eyes.
He had twenty thousand contribution points from being promoted to a sect elder; he was still ten thousand points short to exchange for this secret technique.
"Miss Wen, is there any way in the sect to quickly earn contribution points?"
Jiang Ye asked.
"Old Master Jiang, if you want to earn contribution points quickly, you can go to the Duty Hall on Jiding Peak to accept missions."
Wen Yueyao laughed heartily: "With your strength, the missions there shouldn't be difficult for you."
"Oh? The Duty Hall?"
Jiang Ye's eyes lit up.
Afterward, the two chatted for a while longer, and then Wen Yueyao left with light steps, still barefoot.
Watching her retreating figure.
Jiang Ye only felt that the fire he had been suppressing for many days was growing more and more vigorous.
"It seems I need to go find that lowly maid tonight."
