Chapter 225: Xiao Longnv

Seeing Sun Granny move directly against Liu Bian, Li Mochou smiled with a hint of disdain.

"Hmph!"

"Overestimating your own strength!"

Seeing Sun Granny make a move, Liu Bian let out a cold snort.

A burst of True Qi blasted directly toward her.

"Bang!"

"Pfft!"

Sun Granny was seen flying backward instantly.

Her body slammed against the wall of the Ancient Tomb, and after falling to the ground, she spat out a mouthful of blood.

Even this was only because Liu Bian had held back.

Otherwise, given Sun Granny's Houtian Fourth Layer cultivation,

Liu Bian's casual strike would have been enough to take her life.

"This..."

"His Majesty's strength is so formidable; I didn't even see how he made his move!"

This feat of Liu Bian's truly shocked Li Mochou.

She had not expected Liu Bian's strength to be so immense.

With her own Houtian Ninth Layer strength, she hadn't even caught a glimpse of how Liu Bian struck.

Once again, she clearly felt the magnitude of Liu Bian's power.

At the same time, she became even more convinced that Liu Bian might truly be from another world.

Otherwise, how else could one explain this unfathomably powerful strength?

One must know that even the world-renowned Five Absolutes of the Jianghu did not possess such strength.

Seeing Sun Granny injured, Xiao Longnv's gaze turned cold.

Channeling the internal energy in her dantian, she raised her delicate hand, and the white silk hidden in her sleeve lashed out toward Liu Bian.

Seeing the white silk attacking, Liu Bian merely waved his large hand.

"Bang!"

The white silk attacking from Xiao Longnv was instantly shattered into fragments.

"You had better not waste your efforts; you are no match for Us."

"Rest assured, the two of you, We harbor no malice toward you."

Watching Xiao Longnv, who still wanted to attack, Liu Bian shook his head and explained.

"Then may I ask, Young Master, what is your purpose in coming to our Ancient Tomb Sect?"

By now, Xiao Longnv knew she was no match for Liu Bian.

Just a moment ago, she had attacked with all her might.

Yet, it had been broken by the opponent with a simple wave of his hand.

This level of strength was far above her own.

Although she was relatively naive, she was not stupid.

Seeing that Xiao Longnv's hostility had diminished significantly, Liu Bian replied:

"We were merely curious about your Tomb of the Living Dead, so We came in to take a look."

At this moment, Sun Granny also struggled to stand up.

She came before Liu Bian and bowed:

"Just now, this old woman was reckless. Thank you, Young Master, for showing mercy."

She, too, could see that this young master in brocade robes possessed unfathomable strength.

He held no hostility toward their Ancient Tomb Sect.

Otherwise, the two of them would certainly not have been able to withstand a single blow from Liu Bian.

"It is no matter. Just do not be so reckless in the future."

"Otherwise, should you provoke someone you ought not to one day, it will be too late for regrets."

Liu Bian did not pay much mind to this Sun Granny.

"As you say, Young Master, this old woman understands."

Hearing this, Sun Granny immediately replied respectfully.

"Very well, take Us to properly tour this Tomb of the Living Dead."

"We are truly quite curious about this Tomb of the Living Dead built by Wang Zhongyang!"

Liu Bian waved his hand at them and said softly.

"I wonder, Young Master, how did you know that this Tomb of the Living Dead was built by Wang Zhongyang?"

Hearing Liu Bian's words, the members of the Ancient Tomb Sect were quite surprised.

One must know that few people knew the origin of this ancient tomb.

"That is not for you to concern yourselves with. You only need to know that We know far more than you do."

"Since that is the case, then follow me!"

At this, Xiao Longnv, who had been staring at Liu Bian, said with a face full of reluctance.

If not for the fact that she was no match for the person before her, she would have wanted to throw Liu Bian out.

Having said that, she turned around to lead the way for Liu Bian.

"Heh, this little girl is quite interesting."

"However, she seems to have more emotions than in my memory."

To be honest, although this Xiao Longnv was somewhat naive and ignorant of worldly affairs,

she was not as cold as imagined.

An Xiao Longnv like this seemed to have more human warmth and normal emotions.

Subsequently, Xiao Longnv led Liu Bian and the master-disciple pair Li Mochou to tour the ancient tomb.

On the side, Li Mochou would occasionally offer explanations to Liu Bian.

Before long, the four of them arrived at the place where the Quanzhen Sect's martial arts manuals and the Ancient Tomb Sect's martial arts manuals were carved.

"Your Majesty, these carvings on the stone walls are all Quanzhen Sect martial arts manuals."

"This, this, this..."

Just as Li Mochou finished speaking, her eyes became fixed on the stone wall beside her.

"Master, what is wrong?"

Hong Lingbo, on the side, saw Li Mochou's agitated appearance and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"This, this."

"What is carved on this stone wall is actually the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra'."

Li Mochou said excitedly.

"What? So the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' is actually here."

Hearing this, Hong Lingbo was also greatly shocked.

She had been by Li Mochou's side for a long time, and she knew clearly how much Li Mochou craved the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra."

Wasn't Li Mochou spreading the news of Xiao Longnv's martial arts bride-seeking contest throughout the Jianghu precisely to obtain the Ancient Tomb Sect's "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra"?

It was just unexpected to see the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" under such circumstances.

"Senior Sister, Master once said that you are not allowed to practice the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra'."

Hearing Li Mochou's words, Xiao Longnv immediately warned her.

"Heh, Junior Sister, Master was biased back then, which is why she passed the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' to you."

"Now, you want Senior Sister to give it up? That is impossible!"

Li Mochou said to Xiao Longnv with ironclad determination.

Now that the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" was within reach, how could there be any reason not to practice it?

"Hmph!"

"If you hadn't insisted on coming, how could she have seen the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra'?"

At this moment, Xiao Longnv said angrily to Liu Bian.

"Heh, to be honest, your Ancient Tomb Sect's martial arts are not worthy of Our attention."

Liu Bian said to Xiao Longnv, then turned to Li Mochou:

"Li Mochou, as long as you pledge loyalty to Us, We can teach you more profound martial arts."

"To be honest, with your aptitude, practicing the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' is somewhat of a waste."

Hearing this, Li Mochou's body trembled.

"Is what Your Majesty says true? Can you really teach me more profound martial arts?"

Li Mochou asked Liu Bian in disbelief.

One must know that in her understanding, the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" was already a very profound martial art.

She had not expected Liu Bian to be so dismissive of the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra."

She was also quite curious about what kind of technique Liu Bian would provide.

"Don't you go around bragging. Our Ancient Tomb Sect's 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' is already very powerful. I don't believe you have a technique more powerful than the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra'."

At this moment, Xiao Longnv also looked at Liu Bian with a face full of disbelief.

"Heh, as long as you submit and pledge loyalty to Us, We can teach you the Martial Dao techniques practiced by the civil and military officials of Our Great Han Empire." ===== CHAPTER 226 =====
