"Buzz!"
On a mahogany bed carved with flowers, a heavy quilt, and a warm, unblemished ermine fur.
After the white light representing the Healing Innate Skill dissipated, a middle-aged woman was revealed, but her face was still beautiful, dignified, and virtuous.
Huang Rong (Alignment: Friend)
[Level: Extraordinary Rank 6]
Grade: Quasi Boss
[Description: The daughter of the Master of Peach Blossom Island, the Eastern Heretic Huang Yaoshi. She is proficient in Peach Blossom Island's martial arts, Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation, and Qimen Dunjia.] He was multi-talented, knowledgeable, proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and had great culinary skills. He had guarded Xiangyang City with Guo Jing and protected the country. The Book of Wumu that he had mastered had a very special ability!
This was the third Quasi-boss Ji Ye had seen.
The first was Yang Guo, and the second was the Yuan North King who had been killed earlier.
After all, Huang Rong was the "female Zhuge" who had guarded Xiangyang City with her husband for decades and fought against the Mongolian army.
If it weren't for the Battlefield of Providence's weakening effect, he might even be rated as a Boss, let alone a Quasi-Boss!
However, compared to the evaluation, Ji Ye was more interested in her explanation.
Exactly as Ji Ye thought, Huang Rong, as the key person to decide the outcome of the battle, had a certain special ability, which was the Book of Wumu.
This book was also a "Special" military strategy book.
The first part recorded Yue Fei's method of training soldiers. In theory, it could be used to train the "Yue Clan Army", a special type of army with a perfect evaluation.
Secondly, the Book of Wumu itself was a Transcendent item. After its power was activated, it could accelerate the soldiers' training and formation of battle formations. It could also improve the soldiers' combat abilities on the battlefield.
In addition, Huang Rong herself had mastered the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, Qimen Dunjia, and other tactical formations. With the combination of the two, her influence on Xiangyang City was even greater than Guo Jing's to a certain extent.
It was also the reason why the Yuan army failed to conquer Xiangyang City even though the number of experts and soldiers in Xiangyang City was lower than that of the Yuan army.
It was also why the Yuan people sent the South King, who was the strongest person, to assassinate Huang Rong at the risk of his own life!
"Hmm …"
On the bed, Huang Rong's eyelids twitched, then slowly opened.
"Mother, you're finally awake, boohoo!"
Little Guo Xiang threw herself into Huang Rong's arms, crying with excitement.
"Don't cry, don't cry! If you continue to cry, you won't be pretty anymore … "
Huang Rong reached out and rubbed her youngest daughter's head, wiping away the tears on her face.
"Mrs. Guo is fine for now."
"However, the South King's True Qi is too powerful, and it will take some time to completely drive it out.
Ji Ye looked "exhausted" as he spoke to Guo Jing, who was holding Huang Rong's hand.
"Thank you, Master Ji. I don't know how to thank you enough!"
Guo Jing, who had been calm when faced with tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers but looked anxious when Ji Ye was treating Huang Rong, couldn't help but feel uneasy.
At this moment, he was finally able to relax.
Guo Jing (Alignment: Friend)
[Level: Extraordinary Rank 7]
Grade: Leader
[Description: He is the descendant of a famous clan. He has fused Nine Yin Manual, Divine Dragon Subduing Palm, and Left and Right Inter-fighting into one. Among them, Divine Dragon Subduing Palm has already reached the realm of breaking through limits. He is skilled in the art of war and formations. He has led a group of heroes to protect the frontlines of Southern Song Dynasty's Xiangyang City for decades. He is admired by the people and is known as the greatest swordsman in the world.] A great chivalrous man serves the country and the people!
Huang Rong was already a quasi-leader, so there was no problem with Guo Jing being a leader.
Just as Ji Ye had speculated, part of his martial arts had broken through the limits, and it was the Dragon-Subduing Strike that focused on combat.
No wonder he was able to trigger the changes in the soil, water, and air around with his fists and kill hundreds of Yuan soldiers unstoppably on the battlefield.
"Yes, Brother Ji (Master) … Thank you. If you didn't come to Xiangyang City, my mother would have left us …"
Hearing Guo Jing's words …
Guo Xiang, Guo Fu, and Guo Polu looked at Ji Ye gratefully.
Of course, there was also Eastern Heretic, who was dressed in a green robe and was tall and thin. He had rushed over immediately after learning that Huang Rong was injured, only to find that his medical skills, which he was so proud of, were useless.
[Medicine Master Huang]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-Seven]
[Rarity: Commander]
Description: The owner of Peach Blossom Island, nicknamed Eastern Heretic, is one of the top five masters in the world. His martial arts are extraordinary. He is well-versed in astronomy, geography, the five elements, the eight trigrams, Qimen Dun Jia, zither, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even irrigation, economics and military strategy.
This family's Attributes were very powerful. Not only were their levels and evaluations very high, but they also had a lot more explanation points than the others.
It must be noted that one of the purposes of the Battlefield of Providence was to promote mutual understanding between civilizations of the same species. The Yuan battle participants on the other side would probably be amazed by the stats too!
"Mrs. Guo, I have a suggestion."
However, Ji Ye, who had already known that, wasn't too surprised. After Huang Rong talked to her children, he said, "You'd better keep the news of your awakening a secret for now.
"You'd better keep the news of your awakening a secret for now. That way … we might be able to take this opportunity to crush the Yuan army and solve the crisis of Xiangyang City!"
"That's a good plan. The Yuan people are afraid of Rong'er's wisdom. Once they learn that she has woken up, there's no telling what they will do to her. Rong'er, you just stay in the house and make plans. Don't go out anymore. I'm not worried … "
Guo Jing's eyes glittered, and he agreed with her immediately.
The Yuan people had lost two kings and ten thousand soldiers in this battle. They wouldn't let it go easily.
Since they couldn't gain any advantages on the battlefield, it was not hard to imagine that the upcoming "assassination" would be much fiercer than before!
Having just experienced Huang Rong's near-death pain, Guo Jing naturally didn't want Huang Rong to take any risks.
Of course, that was Ji Ye's suggestion.
Apart from protecting Huang Rong, who was a central figure, he also had his own reasons.
It was so that Elder Meng could continue to serve as the Chief Think Tank of Xiangyang City.
It was because his every word and action could affect most people in Xiangyang City, and he was of great importance.
Ji Ye felt that the Twin Dragon Mount fort might gain more power of providence from Elder Meng than from Lu Junyi, Wu Song, and the other generals who led the battle.
On the other hand, it was also to reduce the number of ways that other settlement members who were interested in the Book of Wumu could approach Huang Rong.
The Twin Dragon Mount fort was determined to get this item. Its priority was even higher than his personal desire to obtain the Dragon-Subduing Strike.
It was because according to the Confederation Office's estimation, a famous historical hero like Yue Fei was probably a Legendary hero on the Land of Inheritance. If they missed this opportunity, they would probably have to wait for the Transcendent Battlefield of Providence to get the Book of Wumu!
Of course, the Dragon-Subduing Strike and the Book of Wumu were obviously set to be the "strongest" martial arts and "military books" on this Battlefield of Providence.
Ji Ye didn't expect to be taught them just because he cured Huang Rong.
According to the time on this Battlefield of Providence, there were at least two months to go before the City of Humans was closed. With the advantages of the Twin Dragon Mount fort, it could take its time and make progress step by step.
For that reason, Ji Ye didn't cure Huang Rong all at once. Instead, he chose to cure her in installments like Shi the Third did.
However, Ji Ye felt that Huang Rong, as the smartest person in The Return of the Condor Heroes, seemed to have guessed something after she learned about the situation in Xiangyang City from Guo Jing and her children even though she had just woken up.
After all, although she was middle-aged, Huang Rong was as smart as she used to be. She was even better at observing people because of her life experience and her years of defending Xiangyang City.
Also, the situation in Xiangyang City was much more complicated than in the Hundred Flowers Valley. Theoretically speaking, Huang Rong must've met a lot of battle participants before she passed out.
After failing to deceive Yan Chixia, Ji Ye wouldn't underestimate the projections of those heroes anymore.
However, Ji Ye's move was an open scheme in the first place. Also, he wasn't talking to Guo Jing, but to Huang Rong, which made it even less problematic.
"Alright, now that the Yuan army has retreated, I should take a good rest.
"Brother Jing, it's been a long time since I've been so relaxed. I've been in a coma for the past two days, but I've been dreaming about our first meeting in Zhangjiakou and the little red horse …"
As Ji Ye speculated, Huang Rong, as a smart person, didn't object.
In fact, Huang Rong had been rather annoyed by the battle participants who tried to approach her and Guo Jing.
In particular, quite a few settlements had used honey traps and sent beautiful girls who were as beautiful as she was when she was young to approach Guo Jing.
Of course, Guo Jing's honest personality wouldn't be tempted.
However, Huang Rong couldn't help but feel jealous when she saw that!
"Right, Mrs. Guo, this is the Rejuvenation Fluid, a specialty of the Twin Dragon Mount fort. It can restore one's youth. It should be helpful for your wounds too."
After Huang Rong agreed to the plan, Ji Ye stood up and said goodbye. However, he thought of something and took out a small bottle. Even though Huang Rong was a little wary of Ji Ye, her eyes glittered as she stared at the bottle.
"You have to use professional methods to deal with women …"
Ji Ye recalled what Wu Qiao said when she made the suggestion to him. It was true that women knew women best.
"Master Ji, your martial arts seem to be related to the sea, just like my young friend Yang Guo. Are they both related to the sea?
"My Peach Blossom Island is close to the sea, and I've learned a thing or two about the power of the sea. I'd like to discuss it with my young friend Ji. Would you be able to satisfy my curiosity, Master Ji? "
After giving away the jade bottle and confirming that his daughter was fine with his medical skills, Huang Yaoshi suddenly spoke with a smile on his way to Ji Ye.
"As for Island Master Huang's Melody of the Rising Tide, I have long heard of it!"
Ji Ye was greatly shocked.
The discussion was fake, but the teaching was the real deal!
As the most talented person among the Divine Condors, Huang Yaoshi's knowledge was definitely a human-shaped treasury.
Although he had mastered the Nine Yin Manual and a bunch of outstanding martial arts, and now that his martial arts realm was not inferior to that of a grandmaster, he no longer had any need for ordinary martial arts, but Huang Yaoshi's two unique skills, the Divine Flicking Finger and the Melody of the Rising Tide, were undoubtedly very interesting.
The latter, in particular, could control water currents.
After he grasped it, he would be able to further increase the power of his Flood Dragon Bloodline!
