Chapter 117
"'Nine Yin Manual?'"
Since Gu Hanyuan was prepared to farm favorability, he certainly had to let them know the source, so as to reflect his importance.
"'The Nine Yin Manual' is all-encompassing; if one were to learn it all, it would be difficult to achieve anything without ten years of effort. This is just a simplified version I copied down, containing everything suitable for your practice. Besides lightness skills and internal arts, there is also the 'Muscle-Changing and Bone-Strengthening Chapter' to improve martial arts aptitude, the 'Healing Chapter' for internal injuries, and techniques for acupoint striking, unblocking, and breath holding. The 'White Python Whip Technique' is suitable for Miss Long, and the 'Bone-Crushing Divine Claw' is suitable for Fairy Li. Learning these will at least allow you to handle the vast majority of situations, and I will be able to rest somewhat easier."
Gu Hanyuan smiled gently and explained to the two women, appearing as if he cared about them.
In fact, the vast majority of the copied content was also in the stone carvings of the Ancient Tomb, but now that the plot had changed, the opportunity to discover them had been lost.
Li Mochou was the most moved; back then, the Five Greats had almost fought to the death to snatch the "Nine Yin Manual", yet it was just given to them by Gu Hanyuan like this.
Moreover, compared to Xiaolongnu, Li Mochou, who walked the martial arts world all year round, understood the importance of martial arts the most; for such a divine manual, even husbands, wives, and children could turn against each other.
If it weren't for a bit of reason, Li Mochou would have wanted to throw herself into Gu Hanyuan's arms right now.
But her autumn-water-like eyes had already expressed her moved emotions very clearly.
Xiaolongnu's expression, however, was somewhat conflicted at this moment.
She was also very moved, but she was somewhat hesitant about switching to the internal arts of the "Nine Yin Manual"; even if she couldn't practice the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra", she didn't want to give up the Ancient Tomb internal arts passed down by the founder.
"Miss Long, it doesn't matter if you can't let go of the Ancient Tomb's internal arts. I took out these martial arts to give you some security, not to force you. Even if you don't want to practice the internal arts, it is good to learn some moves and secret techniques that enhance your strength."
Gu Hanyuan saw Xiaolongnu's conflicted thoughts and did not force her.
Seeing that Gu Hanyuan had instead persuaded her first, Xiaolongnu felt relieved, and a smile that put flowers to shame could not help but appear on her face.
Gu Hanyuan was also stunned after seeing Xiaolongnu's smile, feeling that regardless of whether giving the manual could increase favorability, seeing such a smile was already worth the price of admission.
Gu Hanyuan couldn't help but laugh relaxedly; Xiaolongnu's pure smile also cleansed his heart.
The pressure on those walking in the darkness is never small, and being able to see such a smile is indeed healing to the heart.
Xiaolongnu's charm is definitely not just her face and figure.
Xiaolongnu had been paying attention to Gu Hanyuan just now and was somewhat surprised to see this smile, which was different from the past, but she liked this smile, feeling that it was more real.
Li Mochou, on the side, was watching with jealousy.
She thought in her heart: "And you said you didn't like her; Junior Sister can also lie."
Fortunately, she had been mentally prepared for a long time; although she was unhappy, she was not surprised.
Li Mochou originally wasn't in a hurry for Gu Hanyuan to express that he was "willing to die for her" and then take her away from the Ancient Tomb, but now that she learned he was leaving, she couldn't wait any longer.
"Junior Sister, come into the Ancient Tomb with me."
Li Mochou suddenly called Xiaolongnu back into the Ancient Tomb.
Although Xiaolongnu didn't know why, she still followed obediently.
Gu Hanyuan was also somewhat confused, not understanding what Li Mochou had thought of to suddenly return to the Ancient Tomb.
It couldn't just be simple jealousy, right? ===== CHAPTER 119 =====
