AWB Chapter 81 Son of Destiny
Chapter 81 Son of Destiny
Xie Wanning was somewhat at a loss when she saw the bell at her waist ring, which had been motionless.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, your bell is truly peculiar. It rings without wind. Could it be some kind of powerful magical artifact?" Qin Muyang forced a smile, compelling himself not to think about what would happen a year from now.
"It's nothing special, just a pretty bell." Xie Wanning forced a smile and awkwardly looked away.
Suddenly, as if struck by lightning, Xie Wanning trembled all over.
She remembered now; the ringing of the bell was tantamount to discovering the existence of the Chosen One. How could the Chosen One, burdened with the destiny of the cultivation world, die so easily?
Another "she" told Xie Wanning that she would meet the chosen one and pass on the sect's cultivation techniques to them. Could this be related to destiny?
Xie Wanning didn't dare waste any time. She quickly grabbed Qin Muyang's hand, her voice trembling with obvious nervousness: "Sect Leader Qin, if I told you there's a way to help you survive, but I'm not sure if it will work, would you be willing to trust me and give it a try?"
Qin Muyang looked at Xie Wanning in disbelief. What could possibly bring a dying man to life?
However, he could feel the temperature of Xie Wanning's palm, which was extremely hot, and Xie Wanning's eyes were shining brightly, like the moon in the dark night.
"Since it's Fellow Daoist Xu's method, it's worth a try." Qin Muyang was practically throwing caution to the wind. In his memory, he had faced countless life-threatening situations and always pulled through without fear. This time, with a chance to live, why wouldn't he give it a shot?
He either had to witness his body gradually weaken and die, or gamble that this uncertain method could help him survive.
Qin Muyang already knew what was going on.
He was never a coward!
Xie Wanning gripped Qin Muyang's hand tightly and nodded heavily.
Then, Xie Wanning mobilized all the memories related to weapon crafting in her mind, placed her fingers on Qin Muyang's forehead, and a strand of golden thread passed through her hand and into Qin Muyang's mind.
The two of them radiated a dazzling golden light, and the spiritual energy around the room gathered together, forming a vortex of spiritual energy that continuously flowed into Xie Wanning and Qin Muyang's bodies.
After an incense stick's time, Xie Wanning finally finished transmitting her memories. When she opened her eyes, she saw Qin Muyang in front of her with rosy lips and a flushed face. He looked much more energetic.
What was most striking were Qin Muyang's eyes, shimmering with golden light, like sunlight reflecting off water. Though it lasted only a moment, it was unforgettable.
Qin Muyang examined his body and felt that his spiritual energy was abundant, and his cultivation level had actually risen to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. More importantly, when he circulated his spiritual energy, he felt no pain at all.
Qin Muyang carefully pulled up his shirt and looked at his abdomen. The black lines were gone. His curse was gone!
"Fellow Daoist Xu, thank you..." Qin Muyang happily raised his head, intending to thank Xie Wanning, but the words stopped in his throat. He saw that Xie Wanning's face was turned to the side, her ears as red as the rising sun.
Qin Muyang looked down at his bare upper body and couldn't help but blush slightly.
He was so happy that he forgot all about etiquette. Xu Weilin was just an unmarried girl, and he had actually exposed his upper body—it was incredibly rude!
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Qin Muyang suppressed his overwhelming joy and apologized cautiously.
"You, just be careful next time." Xie Wanning turned her face, her cheeks still flushed, and asked angrily, "Also, why did you suddenly approach me this morning? It was really scary."
Qin Muyang hurriedly waved his hand: "I really didn't mean to. I was thinking that you might have saved my life, and I got so lost in thought that I didn't notice the distance between us."
Xie Wanning put her hands on her hips and scolded sternly, "This is your bad habit. You need to correct it as soon as possible. If you offended other girls, you wouldn't be as lenient as I am. You're lucky to have met me, so I won't hold it against you."
Qin Muyang touched his newly healed ribs. Was this really what they called being lenient?!
However, meeting Hsu Wei-lin was the only way he had a chance to live, which was indeed his good fortune.
Qin Muyang smiled, his eyes sparkling like a pool of spring water: "Then I must thank Miss Xu for saving my life."
As he spoke, Qin Muyang took out a white token and handed it to Xie Wanning: "Miss Xu, from now on you will be the only white-level concealed person in the black market. With this token, you don't need to spend money to buy anything you want. The black market will pay for it for you, and the black market will not take a profit from what you sell."
"How could I possibly accept this?" Xie Wanning turned her head away and chuckled, but her hand unconsciously took the token.
Don't be in vain!
"By the way, absorb the memories I transferred to you, they're really good stuff!" Xie Wanning said with a smile, her dimples showing.
"Mm," Qin Muyang replied, then closed his eyes and began to process the memories.
After an incense stick's time, Qin Muyang opened his eyes in shock: "Is this the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion's technique? Why is it different? It's the same technique for refining weapons, but this technique uses simpler methods and more refined tools. Many of the methods for forging spiritual energy are different, making it simpler and faster."
Xie Wanning picked up the peach blossom pastry on the table and ate it with her mouth full.
She calmly swallowed the pastry in her mouth and explained without hesitation, "Of course, because what I'm transmitting to you is the most authentic weapon-refining technique from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion."
After saying that, Xie Wanning couldn't help but tilt her head. How did she know that the weapon-refining technique was the authentic technique of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion? It was a memory that suddenly popped into her mind.
How strange!
"I see." Qin Muyang suddenly understood. The new cultivation method had many similarities to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion's methods, but it was much simpler and clearer, which indeed solved many problems that he had previously struggled to understand. However, Qin Muyang looked at Xie Wanning inquisitively and finally asked curiously, "How did Miss Xu know about the authentic Heavenly Mystery Pavilion's cultivation method?"
Meeting Xie Wanning's confused gaze, Qin Muyang knew the answer.
She herself didn't even know the origin of the cultivation technique!
Xie Wanning chuckled sheepishly, then frowned and said seriously, "Sect Master Qin, I have some memory loss, so I don't remember many things. But there's one thing I must tell you: you are one of the chosen ones of the entire cultivation world. Waaah..."
Before Xie Wanning could finish speaking, Qin Muyang rushed over and covered her mouth, forcing Xie Wanning to only make "woo woo" sounds of accusation.
She glared at Qin Muyang, but only saw obvious tension and fear on his face, which made Xie Wanning feel a little strange. She blinked helplessly.
Qin Muyang felt the gentle breeze stirred by Xie Wanning's eyelashes and felt her warmth in his palm. He couldn't help but blush and let go of her hand.
"Why did you cover my mouth?" Xie Wanning said, somewhat annoyed.
"Ahem." Qin Muyang coughed twice to calm himself down, then put on a serious face and said in a solemn tone, "Miss Xu, those four words cannot be said. According to the thousand-year-old rules of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, those four words are not to be touched by mortals, otherwise there may be bad consequences."
Xie Wanning's anger gradually dissipated. Seeing Qin Muyang's serious expression, and considering that he was a disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, she knew that what he said must have its reasons.
Xie Wanning had to become cautious, and after hesitating for a long time, she said, "Now that you know your identity, you should know that the cultivation technique I've passed on to you is the key to maintaining your identity. You must practice the technique diligently and strive to improve your cultivation. If you are lazy and indulgent, don't blame me for beating... no, I mean looking down on you, understand?"
Xie Wanning originally wanted to say she would beat him until he cried for his parents, but she felt that would be too rude. Besides, Qin Muyang was not someone she disliked, so there was no need to say anything harsh.
"I understand." Qin Muyang's eyes couldn't hide his smile, and his tone was light.
"Miss Xu, there's an auction on the black market tonight. Would you be interested in participating? Also, the information you're looking for will be available tonight," Qin Muyang sincerely invited.
"it is good."
