Kill That Man

Chapter 8 Master's Trial

After Yu Qing Yao completed studying the whole thing, she discovered an extra column of text on the system screen.

Universal Heart Law (Getting started)

At this time night has fallen, Master Daoist w.a.n.g takes out a piece of paper cut into a candle, shaking it, the paper candle becomes a real candle, lighting up.

Master Daoist w.a.n.g puts the candle aside, guides Yu Qing Yao to sit on the bed, let her try to cultivate for the first time.

Usually the first cultivation attempt will not succeed. It takes about one month to carefully sense the qi in the air.

The top graded spirit roots generally take about ten days, and its common for inferior spirit roots to take about three months or even half a year to sense qi.

Master Daoist w.a.n.g has taught more than a dozen disciples and is very experienced. He has already thought of a speech to comfort Yu Qing Yao. His only worry is that the young girl would cry too much.

Yu Qing Yao sits cross-legged and asks, "Master, how many days does it usually take to get started?"

She is not afraid that she can't learn it by herself. The Heart Law has already appeared in the system, she already understands it thoroughly. It can even be said that she has a more thorough understanding than Master Daoist w.a.n.g.

Master Daoist w.a.n.g smiles and says: "With your talent, at most half a month."

In his mind, although Yu Qing Yao's spirit root is not carefully measured, according to his experience, it should at least be the top grade. Even if Yu Qing Yao hasn't been exposed to the cultivating path, half a month is sufficient enough.

He had accepted Li Huaide as a disciple, because Li Huaide has studied books and has a top-quality spirit root. Nine days after he entered the Sect, this young man had rapid development, he soon reached the third layer of Refinement in less than half a year.

After listening to Master Daoist w.a.n.g's words, Yu Qing Yao is afraid to cultivate. She pretends to cultivate for a while, and says, "Master, I don't sense reiki, am I useless?"

Master Daoist w.a.n.g laughs, saying: "Your unlikely to succeed the first time, its fine to try again in a few more days."

Yu Qing Yao nods, firmly saying: "I will try several times everyday, I must get started as soon as possible."

Master Daoist w.a.n.g smiles, nodding, he says: "It's not early, rest now, tomorrow morning is Brother Li's engagement!"

Yu Qing Yao says "En."

Looking at her, she doesn't seem sad, on the contrary she is smiling. Master Daoist w.a.n.g asks with a smile: "Why did you commit suicide yesterday?"

He is afraid that she still has love for Li Huaide.

Yu Qing Yao's heart is tense, she smiles, saying, "Yesterday I was alone and I had only these *four bare walls for a home. If the Li family didn't allow me to marry in, I wouldn't know how to live in this village. For a moment I thought badly, that I might as well die and find my parents."

Master Daoist w.a.n.g listens, nodding, he asks: "Will you still do this in the future?"

Yu Qing Yao smiles, and says: "Now that I have Master, I will not! I want to cultivate well, learn spells, and repay Master's life-saving grace."

After listening, Master Daoist w.a.n.g's mind is free from worry, he says with a smile: "Li Huaide will be engaged tomorrow, don't have any delusions."

Yu Qing Yao smiles and shakes her head and says, "Its good that Brother Li can tie the knot with the Zhao family. Now I just want to learn from Master, serve Master."

Master Daoist w.a.n.g nods with satisfaction, leaving the candle he walks out.

Back in the room next door, Master Daoist w.a.n.g quietly thinks, today he did not see Yu Qing Yao have any particular move towards Li Huaide, he also didn't see a sad look on her face. I'm afraid that she doesn't have a female to male feeling for him. Suicide is just because she didn't think she could live any longer. If this is the case, its easier to handle.

As for truth and falsehood, Master Daoist w.a.n.g has time to check again.

Yu Qing Yao dare not sleep all night, afraid that Master Daoist w.a.n.g will attack at night.

Just after dawn, Yu Qing Yao finds that she was worried in vain last night. She thought, I have a gentleman's belly but a small man's heart.

She thought: No matter what, as long as he is like a Master, I should respect him like a Master.

Her family is poor and there is no food to serve, its better to go and boil some water.

Yu Qing Yao gets up and goes to the kitchen to boil water. There is nothing she can do. She is too poor, she can only boil water to serve the guests.

By the time the water was boiled, Master Daoist w.a.n.g was up and practicing with his sword in the courtyard.

Yu Qing Yao serves tea, and water to wash his face, handing it over when he is done.

Master Daoist w.a.n.g naturally receives it, rinsing his mouth, and was.h.i.+ng his face.

He is the Lord and is used to being served. But his female disciple spontaneously came to serve him, it feels very pleasant.

Li Huaide hurriedly invites his Master over for breakfast.

He secretly observes Yu Qing Yao and Master, but he doesn't notice anything unusual, so he is relieved.

The three walk out of the door and go to the Li house.

The Li family is very lively at this time. Because Li Huaide is a disciple of Feiyun Sect, the villagers attach extra care to his family, and everyone comes to give gifts. The local gentry in the neighboring village also visit.

Master Daoist w.a.n.g arrives, and the courtyard suddenly becomes quiet, everyone respectfully looks at Master Daoist w.a.n.g. People who don't have face are afraid to say h.e.l.lo to him.

The Li family respectfully invite Master Daoist w.a.n.g to the head seat. Other people's breakfast is noodles, but Master Daoist w.a.n.g's table has wine and dishes.

The Li family invites the Patriarch and the village chief and scholar of the neighboring village to accompany Master Daoist w.a.n.g for a drink.

Yu Qing Yao's table is at the side, she is accompanied by some decent women in the village. Yu Qing Yao hurriedly eats her bowl of noodles, and leaves the table.

The village people stare at her with strange eyes, making her feel uncomfortable.

Many people secretly say that Yu Qing Yao is a lucky little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, she was a poor little orphan girl who no one wanted, now she is an apprentice to Master Daoist w.a.n.g. This is a sparrow who turned into a phoenix. In the future, there will be plenty of blessings to enjoy.

Some women laugh, privately saying, if they had known this earlier, would the Li family retreat from marriage? If they hadn't retreated from marriage, they would be an unmarried couple, but also brother and sister, how good would that be?

Some people retort: If not because of this matter, Master Daoist w.a.n.g wouldn't have come here, Yu Qing Yao wouldn't have the fortune of being looked upon by Master Daoist w.a.n.g.

Everybody sighs, fate is really capricious. Yu Qing Yao's good fortune is because of this.

The withdrawal of the Li family has resulted in Yu Qing Yao's good luck.

In fact, this is cause and effect that many people don't understand.

After dinner, Master Daoist w.a.n.g allows Li Huaide to stop serving him and take care of his marriage matters. He takes Yu Qing Yao back to the Yu home. The Li family is very apologetic and sends a bunch of snacks and fruit to the Yu home.

Master Daoist w.a.n.g returns to the Yu home and begins to teach Yu Qing Yao the White Crane Long Fist.

The Daoist who has just started can't cast any lethal spells. In many cases, he has to rely on martial arts to protect himself.

Feiyun Sect has its own set of martial arts, and it is also famous in Zhao city's martial arts scene.

The martial arts of Daoist Factions focus on Sword Dao, and Feiyun Sect is no exception. The Sword Dao is divided into internal force, innate and sword intent, three ranks.

The Dao law majors in the s.p.a.ce between the eyebrows, and the Sword dao is cultivated in the lower Dantian, three inches below the navel.

The introductory study of Feiyun Sect is the White Crane Long Fist, then the Snake & Crane, and finally the Feiyun Strike.

The introduction of the Sword Dao is the White Crane Sword Method, the Cloud Crane 36 Sword, and finally the Feiyun Sword.

The White Crane Long Fist imitates the immortal crane by nouris.h.i.+ng the qi, guiding it to refine the flesh, and cultivating the internal force.

Master Daoist w.a.n.g teaches each step slowly. Each move he explains, how to breathe, the meridians and acupoints, how to move the internal force.

Yu Qing Yao doesn't understand the acupuncture points, so Master Daoist w.a.n.g folds a branch and points them out on her.

Even so, when the branches point to sensitive places, Yu Qing Yao is still ashamed, face burning.

Master Daoist w.a.n.g solemnly says, "Don't think too much, I'm your Master. Master and disciple are like father and son, earnestly study."
