Chapter 601: Yin Yue Classic

Wang Ping'an heard Xuanqing Daozhang's words, but he didn't rush over; he had to put on an act, letting his master know that he still couldn't speak and didn't understand speech.

Only when he saw his master beckon to him did he rise, stepping with his short little legs, quickly walking toward Xuanqing Daozhang, and saw Xuanqing Daozhang bend over, preparing to hang this piece of jade pendant he held in his hand onto his neck.

"Master, you were just worried that this piece of jade soul had a problem, yet now you don't even examine it carefully and directly hang this jade pendant on my neck?"

Wang Ping'an couldn't help but mutter to himself; he had heard clearly the conversation just now between his master and Le Zhuang's mother, and in his peripheral vision he saw his master holding this piece of jade pendant, his big, shiny eyes full of curiosity, and he said:

"Aren't you worried that this jade pendant is strange and might have harmed your disciple?"

"You little brat, your neck is almost becoming a display rack, hung full of treasures!"

Xuanqing Daozhang laughed and scolded; regarding the things on Wang Ping'an's neck, he was actually quite satisfied, as they could protect Wang Ping'an's life at critical moments. Just as he was about to find a place to hang this jade pendant on Wang Ping'an's neck, he caught a glimpse of curiosity in Wang Ping'an's eyes and said:

"Although I don't know what this jade pendant is, it must be a good thing; it certainly won't be worse than the jade pendant you already wear, and might even be better!"

Having said that, Xuanqing Daozhang solemnly hung this jade pendant on Wang Ping'an's neck.

The next second.

Xuanqing Daozhang faintly felt that from this jade pendant seemed to emanate a mysterious attraction, and then from Wang Ping'an's body seeped out strands of yin qi, permeating into the jade pendant.

"As I suspected, I knew this jade pendant was strange!"

While speaking, Xuanqing Daozhang stared fixedly at the jade pendant on Wang Ping'an's neck; upon seeing it absorb the yin qi from Wang Ping'an's body, he immediately activated his Dharma Eye, yet his peripheral vision couldn't help but notice the yin qi seeping from Wang Ping'an's body, wanting to check Wang Ping'an's condition.

To see what miraculousness there was in Wang Ping'an, who had just been enveloped by a large amount of yin qi overflowing from the Underworld.

Unfortunately.

What disappointed him was that before his Dharma Eye could pierce Wang Ping'an's body, a terrifying sword qi erupted from within Wang Ping'an, stinging his eyes and causing tears to glisten in his eye sockets.

"This little brat's internal sword qi is much stronger than before; I don't know whether, after this influx of yin qi into his body, his sword qi has become even stronger!"

Xuanqing Daozhang sighed; how could he fail to guess that the sword qi just emitted, which prevented him from peering into Wang Ping'an's body, was that sword apparatus within Wang Ping'an—a sword apparatus formed from condensed sword qi—that had taken effect; his face showed not the slightest displeasure but pure delight, and he said:

"I just don't know whether this little brat's internal yin qi is the yin qi that hasn't yet been absorbed, or yin qi that was deliberately left inside his body!"

The stronger the sword apparatus within Wang Ping'an's body, the happier he is; this shows that the child's life-saving trump card has grown much stronger, so that in future dangers, even if the myriad life-saving treasures hanging from his neck cannot function, this internal sword apparatus can still play a crucial role.

"Fortunately, fortunately, at the critical moment this sword apparatus took effect; otherwise I wouldn't know what to do, and I have no shame for having lavishly nourished it with vast amounts of magical power for so long!"

The sudden change also startled Wang Ping'an; he actually knew that just now, by absorbing yin qi from the Underworld, he would surely draw his master's attention, and he had heard clearly the conversation between his master and Le Zhuang, and even Le Zizhen; while absorbing the Underworld's yin qi, he was likewise considering how to deceive his master.

The best method is to conceal each and every artificial dantian within his body; even if his master knows he is unusual, if he doesn't discover the artificial dantians inside Wang Ping'an, he won't make too much of it. Besides, his extraordinary traits aren't limited to this occasion; this is why, while absorbing yin qi from the Underworld right before his master's face—not merely the Underworld's yin qi, but so pure it attracted him—this absorption can be said to have caused his Yin Qi Classic artificial dantian to make leaps and bounds of progress.

Moreover, he knows that he had already revealed some methods to his master before; his master, lacking concrete evidence, would only think well of him.

Therefore.

Even if he absorbs Underworld yin qi in front of his master, as long as he hides the evidence and his master doesn't discover the artificial dantians inside him, his master will only regard this as one of his extraordinary traits.

He might even, following his junior fellow disciple Le Zhuang's father's saying, mistake him for an innate extreme yin body.

Who would have known.

Just as he approached his master's side, thinking his master would examine his condition, he was about to conceal all the artificial dantians within his body.

Little did he expect.

The jade pendant his master hung on his neck would emit a mysterious attraction, causing the Yin Qi Classic artificial dantian he had carefully concealed to immediately manifest within his body.

A stream of pure magical power surged forth—the magical power transformed by the Yin Qi Classic—seeping into this jade pendant.

Coincidentally.

His master activated his Dharma Eye, paying attention not only to the jade pendant on his neck but also preparing to examine his condition.

Just as he worried whether his Yin Qi Classic artificial dantian inside would be exposed and seen by his master, the sword apparatus within his body would emit a terrifying sword qi, driving away his master's prying Dharma Eye.

"This is……"

Wang Ping'an was certain that his master's Dharma Eye had settled entirely on that strange jade pendant on his neck, no longer paying him any heed; just as he let out a sigh of relief, a foreign image and text suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Ding! You carefully observed the cultivation method of the Yin Yue Classic, congratulations on obtaining the reward: Technique: Yin Yue Classic【Entry Level】!"

After a long while, as Wang Ping'an finished viewing the multitude of images and large amount of text that had appeared in his mind, a mechanical, cold voice suddenly sounded; a smile appeared on his face while he inwardly realized, and he thought to himself:

"Indeed, my master's words were no lie; this jade pendant given by Le Zhuang's mother is of her scheming—she saw that Le Zhuang's father couldn't bring me to the Yin Yue Sect, so she first sent me the sect's cultivation method, planning to later find an opportunity to bring me there!"

Upon thinking this, Wang Ping'an's face showed nothing but undisguised delight, and he again thought to himself:

"I never expected, never expected that I, Wang Ping'an, am a first-rate enjoyer wherever I am; if it weren't for my master and my family, I would really want to go take a look at the Underworld!"
