It was apparent that the fight with Ling Yun from several thousand miles away had drained Miao Fenghuang's energy . It took her half a day to recover before she slowly regained her strength .

"Who on earth would be capable of suppressing my personal Gu Insect?"

Miao Fenghuang muttered to herself while manipulating her fingers to perform several complicated and indescribable actions .

"People on the outside all communicate with their phones, they can hear each other's voices no matter how far away…"

Miao Xiaomiao's expression changed as she reached that part of her sentence and got up quickly, "My grandma's calling for me, I've got to go . I'll tell you guys more tonight . "

This Miao village was not just any Sheng Miao, it was a Gu Miao that terrified any other ordinary Miao populations . Every family raised Gu Insects, thus, the girls were not surprised by Miao Xiaomiao's abnormal behavior and continued joking about as she left .

Miao Xiaomiao's legs were slender and her footsteps were light, making it easy for her to run quickly . Within several minutes, she had already arrived at Miao Fenghuang's house .

"Grandma, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry to see me?"

"Ah!"

Miao Xiaomiao rushed into the house and screamed as she saw Miao Fenghuang sitting cross-legged on the ground with blood at the corner of her lips .

"Don't worry, my personal Gu Insect has been suppressed so it turned against me, that's all . "

Miao Fenghuang slowly lifted her head and looked towards Miao Xiaomiao with complexity in her eyes and indifference in her tone .

Miao Xiaomiao stood up straight as she looked at Miao Fenghuang with fear and worry in her eyes, but also a hint of sympathy and pity that was barely detectable .

She hesitated for a moment before mumbling to her grandmother, "Grandma, it's been decades, this… Why suffer? In my opinion, I think you should take back the Gu Insect…"

"Shut up!" Miao Fenghuang interrupted Miao Xiaomiao with her shriek and angered expression . The blood at the corner of her lips accentuated the menace on her beautiful face .

"Xiaomiao, us Miao girls will only love one man in our lives . Since my personal Gu Insect has already been planted into his body, that means I will only love this man for the rest of my life, why would I want to take it back?"

Miao Fenghuang's hatred and pain were written all over her face as she fiercely lectured Miao Xiaomiao .

Miao Xiaomiao was petrified and could only lower her head submissively, no longer did she have the guts to utter another word .

"You must remember, all men from the outside world are tras.h.!.+ You hear me?!" Miao Fenghuang's fixed her eyes on Miao Xiaomiao as she uttered those words, her hatred was beyond comprehension .

She had already told Miao Xiaomiao the same thing countless times .

"Grandma, don't worry, I won't fall in love with a man from the outside world…" Even though Miao Xiaomiao was a little scared of Miao Fenghuang, she still understood and sympathized with her grandmother .

Finally, Miao Fenghuang nodded her head as she looked at Miao Xiaomiao worriedly before speaking to her .

"Xiaomiao, you've inherited my skills for Gu Sorcery and toxicology, and acquired a considerable amount of skills . I need you to do something for me . "

Miao Xiaomiao was puzzled as she antic.i.p.ated what was to come .

Miao Fenghuang continued, "Just now, someone used an extraordinary technique to suppress of my personal Gu Insect . He exerted all his strength into seizing my Gu Insect, I can't defeat him from this far away . "

"However, he has also been tainted by the scent of the Heart-Devouring Gu Insect, you should be able to locate him based on it . Once you've found him, defeat him with your Gu Sorcery and force him to release my Gu Insect . "

Of course, Miao Fenghuang was unwilling to just let go of connection she had with Miracle Doctor Xue through the Heart-Devouring Gu Insect that had been there for more than 40 years .

Miao Xiaomiao nodded in agreement before hesitating, "Grandma since that person could seize control of your Gu Insect, would I be able to handle him?"

Miao Fenghuang laughed in disdain as she replied, "Xiaomiao, you're worrying too much . The only reason this person could seize control of my Gu Insect was due to the fact that his techniques were special . He isn't even that powerful, just slightly stronger than a normal human being . You'd definitely be able to defeat him with your Gu Sorcery . "

Miao Xiaomiao did not have much to say apart from a small question, "Grandma, when should I leave?"

"Tomorrow!"

Miao Fenghuang replied firmly . She slipped away into her thoughts and a complexed expression crept onto her face again . "If you have a chance to see the one with the last name 'Xue', help me pa.s.s to him a message…"

Qingshui City of Jiangnan Province, underground carpark of the Qingxi Mansions .

"This is your car?!"

Ling Yun was completely stunned by the cool, bright red supercar before his eyes as he asked Xue Meining .

Xue Meining seemed pleased by Ling Yun's reaction as she smugly nodded her head, "Limited edition Ferrari . What do you think? Stunning, isn't it?"

Ling Yun knew nothing about cars, but even he could tell that this car stood out more than any other car in the carpark .

That perfect streamline design, that cool metallic texture, this car would impress just about anyone who caught sight of it .

However, Ling Yun did not have the time to bother about these as he yelled at Xue Meining, "Why would you take a cab if you had a car? You even made me pay for the cab! Return me my money!"

Xue Meining rolled her eyes at him .

"It's just 36 . 50 dollars, look at you being stingy! Don't you know how to be low profile? The entire school would blow up if I drove this car to school! Use your brain!"

Due to the fact that Ling Yun always wanted to stay low profile, he was able to understand the logic behind Xue Meining's reasoning, but he still asked her, "Then what about now…?"

Xue Meining opened the car boot and carefully placed the rosewood casing in it before looking at Ling Yun like he was a complete idiot . She asked, "Do you really expect me to carry this wooden casing to lunch with you? Unbelievable . Do you even understand the concept of being gentle and loving towards pretty girls?"

"Get in the car, I haven't had lunch either, I'm famished!"

The Ferrari dashed off at lightning speed as its engine growled .

It was truly a designer car . The engineer had definitely taken into account all possible body types of pa.s.sengers . Ling Yun's seat felt extremely s.p.a.cious even though he weighed over 100kg .

"Where are we heading to?"

"Didn't grandpa mention? Qingshui Restaurant, we're going to have some fis.h.!.+"

"Why are all the pedestrians looking at us?"

"What do you think? Oi, don't tell me you don't know what a Ferrari is?"

Xue Meining flashed a proud smile . Her beauty was incomparable to anything in the world . She was truly a beauty with a luxurious car .

They reached within a few minutes since Qingshui Restaurant was only a few kilometers away from Qingxi Mansions .

Nowadays, a car represented a person's status and ident.i.ty . Ling Yun and Xue Meining received a warm welcome from the hotel staff the moment they got off the car .

Ling Yun was astonished by the exterior design and outlines of the Qingshui Restaurant . The area itself was more than 5 Savant's Restaurants combined!

It was apparent that Xue Meining frequented this restaurant . All she had to say was the name of a private room before both of them were escorted to the fourth floor of the restaurant .

Ling Yun walked up to a window and opened it up to be greeted by a refres.h.i.+ng breeze and the entire view of the Qingshui Lake . The ripples of the clear blue water complemented the faraway green mountains, enchanting everyone to marvel at nature's beauty .

"Qingshui Restaurant, not bad indeed!"

Xue Meining chuckled as she looked at Ling Yun before yelling at him, "Stop acting poor being envious, get over here and order your food . "

Ling Yun finally turned around .

"I'm fine with anything, you can order whatever you want . "

Xue Meining was surprised at Ling Yun's reaction, perhaps she had antic.i.p.ated him taking advantage of the situation .

Little Demon Girl ordered 4 to 5 main dishes at one go before sending the waiter on his way . She hesitated for some time before asking, "Ling Yun, how could you tell that there was a Gu Insect in my grandfather?"

If one had to describe Xue Meining's impression of Ling Yun, there was only one word for it: Mysterious!

She had been bursting with curiosity the entire time, the fact that she had managed to hold it in until then was already amazing .

Ling Yun plopped his b.u.t.t down onto the seat before replying casually, "Nonsense . If treating the illness wasn't even an issue to me, what makes you think diagnosing it would be a problem?"

That answer was actually about as good as not giving an answer . Since Ling Yun was not keen on telling, Xue Meining rolled her eyes and asked another question, "Did you meet some erudite master who pa.s.sed on his extraordinary medical skills to you? Like one of those mysterious old men who would appear before you and disappear without a trace . all in the blink of an eye…"

The Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot only existed in legendary myths, myths that only Chinese medicine experts like Miracle Doctor Xue would understand . The fact that Ling Yun was able to execute it only helped to push Xue Meining's wild imaginations towards that direction .

Ling Yun acted all mysterious by smirking without admitting or denying anything .

By acting that way, Xue Meining could only a.s.sume that Ling Yun had indeed been enlightened by some elite master . She then lowered her volume and asked him mysteriously, "Brother Ling Yun, can you teach me how to execute the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot?"

*Pff* Ling Yun almost spat out a mouthful of Longjing tea .

This Little Demon Girl truly resembled him, taking advantage whenever it was possible!

He knew that she had a request the moment she called him "Brother" .

Ling Yun shook his head firmly and replied, "No can do, this is a unique technique, I can't teach it to an outsider!"

Xue Meining pouted her s.e.xy lips and looked at Ling Yun pitifully while grabbing onto his arm with her pale and dainty hands .

"Just secretly teach me a few skill . Don't worry, okay? I won't teach it to any outsiders!"

She a.s.sured him confidently .

Even the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot are impressive, without my spiritual energy, you won't be able to save your grandfather!

In addition, even if I do teach you, would you be able to use it without spiritual energy?

However, since he knew that Xue Meining would not give up until she got what she wanted, he chuckled and said, "Well, it's not that I can't teach you a few skills, but you have to be able to withstand the trials…"

"Trials? What trials?" Xue Meining was stunned .

"Let's not talk about the anything else for now . At the least, I would have to observe you for two years since we just got know to each other after all . I still don't know you that well, right? Thus, I would have to observe your performance for a period of time . If you perform well, I'll teach you…"

Ling Yun began to bullsh*t his way through .

"Do you have to observe for that long?" Xue Meining believed Ling Yun as a hint of disappointment seeped through her excitement .

"What do you think? When I was learning it, I had to go through 9 years of trials!"

Ling Yun was extremely pleased with the fact that this Little Demon Girl took the bait . She would have to be obedient in the future!

"Two years then!" Xue Meining's disappointment was quickly replaced by determination . For the legendary Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot, she was willing to do anything!

She quickly moved on to another topic and asked Ling Yun, "Ling Yun, since you were successful in treating my grandfather, why didn't you ask for anything in return?"

Ling Yun chuckled, "Your grandfather has already gifted me the gold and silver needles, what more can I ask for?"

"But, but…"

What Xue Meining wanted to say was according to her judgment of Ling Yun's character, he was not a generous person who would do a good deed without asking for anything in return .

That was the reason she was puzzled about why Ling Yun only asked for the needles and nothing else .

"But don't you know who my grandfather is?"

After a long time spent pondering, she finally figured out a way to ask him indirectly .

It was apparent that the fight with Ling Yun from several thousand miles away had drained Miao Fenghuang 39 s energy . It took her half a day to recover before she slowly regained her strength . Who on earth would be capable of suppressing my personal Gu Insect Miao Fenghuang muttered to herself while manipulating her fingers to perform several complicated and indescribable actions .
