Chapter Fifty-Three: Eyes Like Water, Mirror Like Lake
e range of combat tactics, it will inevitably lead to deficiencies in practice.The Twenty-Four Solar Terms Sword Manual is at least a complete set, with each term relating to the others and allowing f...It was a clear, sunny day with gentle breezes. The inn was very peaceful.
The host of the Flower Fruit Association, Yuan Yi, stood guard outside the door, his old face stern.
Yuan Mengji sat inside the room, coaxing gently: "You really don't need to worry about anything. At least one-sixth of the people in Mowun City are surnamed Yuan. That Red Moon King doesn't expose herself for now, but once she reveals her tracks, I have a hundred ways to deal with her. If it really doesn't work, I can even ask my grandfather to make a move. To tell you the truth, asking you for help is just using your name so that Lu Qilang won't be so bothersome. You have no family or background, and suddenly rising to prominence, secretly receiving some kind of inheritance, and having something on your body that can kill Sheguling... This is very reasonable, isn't it"
Chai Si's heart skipped a beat.
At the end, there was a hint of threat in Yuemengji's words.
Even before participating in the Golden Courtyard Martial Arts Tournament, he had already sorted out the trajectory of his cultivation. Like his grandfather's aged spirit tablet, he polished the past, making everything that had happened traceable and coherent.
For example, the swordsmanship and body-refining techniques he practiced were both obtained by his grandfather from ancient books found by chance.
As for where to find these treasures... how could one possibly stumble upon such gems... Grandpa's already passed away, and I have no idea where they are myself.
He had no friends before, he was solitary and kept to himself, which gave him time to practice swordsmanship in his small courtyard.
His demonic aura manifested as a single point on his nose, granting him heightened sense of smell. He was adept at foraging for herbs and typically made a living from this craft. Thus, the resources he used for cultivating his physique had a clear source.
After witnessing his grandfather being run over by a reckless carriage, he became introverted. For so many years, he has kept a low profile and avoided conflict with other families.
It wasn't until the ape warrior pushed him to his limit that he finally lashed out in anger.
In order to avoid punishment from the ape clan, he proactively approached the Flower Fruit Assembly and, through the connections of Elder West, surrendered himself.
After bowing to the flower and fruit, he was not willing to spend his whole life mingling in the streets.
Since he had already revealed his talents, there was no need to hide anymore. So, he participated in the Jinyang Martial Arts Tournament again, not expecting to become famous overnight.

This account is credible, especially since my father-in-law, Old West, can vouch for it.
Even Lao Yuan's Tavern regular, Zhu Dali, is a testament to the power of growth! By drinking there so many times, he's witnessed his own development firsthand.
But if the demon dream were truly intent on suspecting or causing trouble, it could easily find a fabricated reason to punish him.
Who would he rely on at this juncture, being caught in the Flower Fruit Assembly He could only depend on the Ape Clan. In all of Mo Yun City, there were only a handful of families capable of going against the Ape Clan. To find another patron now was already too late... .
"But these are just two simple techniques my grandfather picked up a long time ago, what kind of lineage is that" Chai A-Siu said with a bitter face. "If Young Master Yuan is interested, it would be a great honor for this little demon to present them to you right away!"
Go back and have the ancient god make a flawed version with traps. You won't even be able to finish it, you bastard! Yuan Mengji stared at Chai A Si for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter: "What are you saying You little demon, do you think I would covet your things To be honest, this Chai A Si is only good because he has good fighting talent, his swordsmanship and body refinement techniques are strong, but they're still low-level. He's not even worthy of my attention."
However, just a casual remark, whether probing or threatening, let him interpret it as he pleases.
As the young master of the Mowang Ape Clan, he was entitled to be unrestrained.
"I am loyal to the Ape Clan, and I admire you with all my heart," Chai A Siu said. "It is an honor that you would consider using my name as a minor demon. How could I not trust you It's just that I fear Lord Ling Shen might not believe me. After all, my strength...is truly limited."
Armeng's tone was light as he smiled, "It's fine if there's a flimsy excuse. I really wouldn't want him to be convinced wholeheartedly. These days, once something is within reach, who would willingly let it slip away"
But Xiaoyao's strength is indeed a problem. I haven't even reached the rank of demon general yet. Even if Chiyue Wang stood there motionless, asking me to kill her, I might not be able to hurt her at all." Chai A Si hinted again.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The Ape Dream had savored the taste, a condescending smile playing on his lips: "Enough with the roundabout words. Just tell me what you want. The Demon Emperor isn't short on soldiers!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Good heavens, to actually compare oneself to the Demon Emperor!
If I don't boast about this, it would be a disservice to my confidence.
"The generosity of the Monkey King is well-known throughout Mount Cloud City. Today, he asks this little demon to do something, there's no way he wouldn't reward him!"
Chai Si first paid a compliment, then said rather awkwardly: "Xiao Yao has recently reached a bottleneck in her cultivation. Progress is difficult. If she could obtain the 10,000-year Dragon Tiger Ginseng, the twelve petals Heavenly Nourishing Lotus, and the nine taels of Divine Infant Peach...she would be able to advance further. At that time, I'll find a way to kill She Gu Yu, at least then I'll have some credibility."
Yuan Mengji's face darkened: "Xiao Yao, are you making fun of me"
Chai A Si made a frightened expression: "It's this little demon who is presumptuous! This little demon has only heard these names and knows that they are effective for body refinement, but I don't know if they are precious or how much they cost. In the heart of this little demon, the Young Master Yuan is destined to be a noble existence that will become a celestial demon, with immeasurable wealth, and his mansion treasures are countless. Could it be that these things are so rare for the esteemed Young Master Yuan that he can't even take them out"
Even Yuan Meng felt embarrassed to speak of such things. All he could think about was Lu Qilang and the possible treasures on He Shu's body. After biting his teeth, he gritted them together and said harshly, "There is one root of thousand-year-old Dragon Tiger ginseng available. Don't expect anything else. If you agree, I will have the master of ceremonies deliver it to you."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Done! Done!" Chai Si responded repeatedly: "It's not right to ask for anything when serving the young master. If it weren't for my cultivation being hindered, unable to make an inch of progress in refining my body for ten years, I wouldn't dare to speak… Really, young master, my heart belongs to you wholeheartedly. Forget about a thousand-year supply of dragon and tiger ginseng, even if you gave me a ten-year or one-year supply of white radish, I would be willing!"
These rich young masters are truly wealthy!
He's still not satisfied even with a thousand-year-old ginseng.
Little sister Qing sent him some five-year-old ginseng before, and it already works very well.
Let his indestructible golden body, which has weathered countless trials and tribulations, be adorned with even more layers of golden light!
"Yuan Meng was thinking to himself that with his grand presence, even someone like Chai A Siu, a small-time nobody, would bow down in awe. He never expected that these days, those who roamed the underworld no longer prioritized righteousness; they only cared about personal gain!"
The blow that had been struck down in rage pained him deeply. Now, looking at Chai A Si, he found everything about him unbearable.
But for the grand plan that comes next, I can only grit my teeth and put on a generous act: "I, Yuan Mengji, never mistreat my subordinates. You'll know later! Dragon Tiger Participation is nothing compared to what awaits once we capture Shegu Yu. We'll have it all."
Chai A Si was naturally moved to tears, his words sincere: "To be able to serve the young master in this lifetime is truly a blessing for Chai A Si! Your writing skills, vision, mind, and strategy are all extraordinary talents that Chai has never encountered before. You are truly unique!"
A rare and precious flower, a metaphor for a genius who stands out from the crowd.
"I've never been fond of such flattery," Yuan Meng waved dismissively. "Wait a hundred years and look back, you'll find that pledging your allegiance to me today was the most correct decision you ever made. Go back now. When I've found She Gu Yu's hiding place, I'll let you know."
"Then I will await your good news!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Chai A Si was one who showed endless gratitude and flattery.
Flattery is something you should never stop doing just because someone tells you to. Without a bit of persistence and sincerity, you can't flatter effectively.
Only the ape dream severely weakened, greatly reducing the damage of the thousand-year-old dragon and tiger ginseng, that's when Chai A Si reluctantly turned back three steps to leave.
"Young Master, please wait a moment!"
I stayed up all night, anxiously awaiting your message!
Before fully stepping out the door, Chai A Si glanced at the roof but quickly withdrew his gaze. He respectfully shut the door.
The same room, different worlds.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The ape was very pleased with its technique of controlling those below, and Chai A Si felt fortunate that he had made a profit.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Meanwhile, the great ancient gods dwelling in the mirror world grew increasingly bewildered by the absurdity of this demon realm.
To be honest, Jiang's survival plan in the demon world, while not flawless, wasn't exactly ingenious.
But also be very cautious, consider everything from all aspects quite thoroughly.
>Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
It took countless sheets of paper and a pulling out of countless hairs before it was finally figured out.
The malicious intent here is so obvious, almost unmasked. It's incredibly shameless!
The past two days he has been thinking about how to solve the problem of the Crimson Moon Demon King Snake Gu Yu, who is slumbering in the room.

Direct reporting is definitely not an option.
If you really want to bring Lu Qi's here, both sides will fight without holding back.
There are real demon spiders in this city. If you want to play a surprise attack, it's impossible.
If you let Zhu Dali and the others handle it, they would all be delivering food.
>
After much deliberation, I just came up with a barely workable plan. I'm going to have the little demon who originally booked the room move in for a few nights.
Coming to think of it, a snake like Shegu who lives in danger must not want to face the unexpected. He would certainly change his position early as a result.
This move is called "gentle breeze rustling grass", hoping to startle the snake and it's a clever technique indeed.
But who would have thought, on such a lazy afternoon, this monkey, Dream, swaggered in!
After much painstaking effort, he had finally chosen a lodging house for his men's three carriages to stay in. It turned out to be the private property of Yuan Mengji! He was so shameless that he specifically chose a room that had been rented out but hadn't yet been occupied by any monsters to discuss his important matters.
Is this the attitude of someone who's doing big things Essence_Book_Library...j_h_s_s_d_c_o_mFirst.Release.UpdateYour old monkey family, what are your business ethics You come whenever you want, even without saying anything beforehand! It's simply too much!
Though I say that sitting in the mirror world, I laugh at the intrigue between Chai A Si and Yuan Meng Ji, whom I have nurtured. Laughing at Yuan Meng Ji, who lacks commercial shame, openly conspiring with She Gu Yu... it is quite amusing.
But the danger that is close at hand cannot ultimately be ignored.
Perhaps things could turn out for the best. After all, when a bloody massacre erupts at the inn and the Serpent’s Deception is exposed, Snake Gu Yu would naturally have no choice but to leave.
So the Great Ancient God plotted in the Mirror World, getting Chai A Si to agree to Yuan Meng Ji's plan, conveniently taking advantage of the situation to refine his own body. The Great Ancient God also took the opportunity to heal his injuries...
At the same time, it provoked Yuan Meng to express more vicious thoughts against She Guyu, thus infuriating the notorious She Guyu.
>
He kept observing the situation, thinking about how to avoid harming Hongzhuang Jing and himself when She Gusu's remaining troops emerged, and how to save Chai A Si's dog's life.
>
But this Shegu Yu was really enduring, she didn't utter a word from beginning to end. No matter how Yuan Mengji jumped around her face, the newly crowned Heavenly List Kingess didn't give even a hint of reaction.
What kind of Red Moon King, it should be called the Turtle King!
If one plan fails, devise another. Since the mountain will not come to me, I shall go to the mountain.
After Chai A Si took his leave, the Great Ancient God decided to use more radical methods.
Yet, that ape dreamt peacefully inside the house, but he was still not at ease.
The thousand-year-old Dragon and Tiger ginseng pained him greatly. Especially since Chai Ah Si would definitely receive this and swallow it, making it impossible to retrieve. It can be said that the huge cost was already a sunk expenditure.
The content within the tags is empty. Therefore, the translation would be:
Perhaps Chai A Si prefers precious medicinal herbs over divine weapons and martial arts techniques because he wants to increase the investment cost of his disciple, making him less likely to abandon this chess piece.Thinking about it this way, Chai A Si is quite intelligent.
Remembering that before leaving the room, Chai Siu-si had stared inexplicably at the ceiling, Yuan Meng also couldn't help but look up. But all he saw was an ordinary ceiling, nothing unusual.
What was Chai Si looking for A thought sprang into Yu Mengji's mind. He looked around, then suddenly got up from his chair and crouched down, peering under the bed a short distance away. "Young Master," Huaguo Hui's leader, Yuan Yi, just happened to walk into the room and asked aloud,
"Hmm" Yuanmeng turned back, "What's up"
Jiang Wang:
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Are your dream-like eyes just decorations With such big, beautiful eyes, can't she see you
She even opened her eyes and stared right at you!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Regardless of how many wills there were in the room, Yuan Yi only knew that that fellow Swift Wind Slashing Sword was very skilled at flattering, which made him feel a strong threat. So, as soon as he sent off Chai A Si, he hurried back to show his loyalty.
"At this moment, Baba said: 'What are you looking for I can help you find it.'"
As he spoke, he heaved his plump body to the ground, lying down. His small eyes darted toward the floor under the bed.
But the snake, coiled there perfectly, its curves so elegant, its red markings mysterious, it was as if, like the dreaming ape, it saw nothing at all.
"No need." Yuanmeng stood up, waved his hand, and seemed thoughtful. "Who lives upstairs"
"I had already checked before you arrived." Yuan Yi followed him up, "There are no guests upstairs or downstairs. What's wrong"
"It's nothing, maybe I thought too much."
"By the way," Yuan Yi Dao said, "the other day, Ling Gan Wang came here and casually beheaded a snake demon, right in the room downstairs. That snake woman had also hidden quite a few skeletons in her room... Now, female demons come every day to inquire about renting that room, saying they want to feel Ling Gan Wang's majesty up close. Since you are discussing important matters here, I have sealed off that room under the pretext of the Security Department handling the case and temporarily stopped renting it out."
"Downstairs," Yuan Meng frowned deeply, "Take me down there."
Please note that the original content was empty. The translation simply reflects that. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The monkey is helpful, striding happily ahead to lead the way.
As Yuanmeng walked behind him, he casually remarked, "This inn still needs a bit of tidying up."
The windows, the dust on the dressing table, all need to be wiped. And with this spring chill, how can we not burn a kang Just staying in the room, I always feel chilly.
"Yes, yes, yes, you're right, I feel the same way too."
He readily agreed and followed her downstairs.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The door was closed again.
The room returned to silence.
Only the dressing table mirror, now dusty and dim, shook in the faint light filtering through the windowpane.
And the eyes under the bed were already open, emotionless...
It seems like everyone is waiting for something.
