The Demon Cinque Beast was a renowned beast even in the League of Nations. Its weight exceeded ten thousand kilograms, and for it to sit on top of the other party... Needless to say, the duo couldn't help but shudder in fear.
Shaking their heads, the duo glanced at the bewitching lady who was on the verge of fainting in sympathy.
Of all the people you could have offended, why did you have to offend this fellow?
This Zhang Shi might seem like an amiable person, but in truth, he was a fearless and fearless individual. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to single-handedly destroy Xuanyuan Kingdom.
If you spoke to him nicely, he would be polite to you... Yet, you spoke so ferociously, it would be strange if he didn't teach you a lesson!
It was already giving you face that he didn't make you acknowledge him as your teacher on the spot!
Back then, even Transcendent Mortal 9-dan soul oracles were willing to acknowledge him as their teacher. Teaching you a lesson... Wouldn't that be a walk in the park?
While the duo was shocked, the bewitching lady beneath the Demon Cinque Beast was on the verge of going insane.
She was powerful, beautiful, and possessed a high standing. Countless people would vie to please her. She thought that this fellow was intentionally trying to attract her attention or even tease her. Yet... not only did he do it for real, he even had the spirit beast sit on top of her...
Spurting a mouthful of blood, Luo Qingyan was frenzied.
"You... I'll kill you!"
Roaring furiously, she was just about to gather her strength to push the fellow away when she heard the displeased voice of the young man not too far away.
"Demon Cinque, what's wrong with you? I told you to negotiate with the other party. Borrowing the invitation letter is borrowing! I didn't ask you to injure her. How dare you! "
"Roar?" The Demon Cinque Beast was taken aback. Its lantern-like eyes blinked in confusion.
Even though it possessed intelligence on par with humans, it was still prone to misunderstandings when it came to human speech. When Zhang Xuan said 'negotiate', it probably heard the word 'injure' instead.
Besides, this fellow had always been arrogant. Anything that caught its eye, it would simply snatch. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been dispatched by the League of Nations to hunt it down.
Since its master wanted it to discuss, it couldn't care less and directly rushed over.
"Alright, stop putting on an act. Since you've done wrong, you have to accept your punishment. How about this, I'll punish you to sit here for an hour. Without my command, you're not allowed to move!"
The angry voice of the young man rang out.
"Pfft …" Luo Qingyan spat out another mouthful of blood, tears streaming down her face.
Are you punishing it or me?
Not only did it sit on me for a while, it even had to sit on me for an hour … If I really sat on it like that, I'm afraid I would die in less than an hour …
Just as Zhang Xuan was spurting blood, he heard the lady dressed as a man say, "We're here to buy medicinal herbs, so it's best not to complicate matters..."
"That's true!" The young man nodded and turned to look at the maidservant at the entrance of the herb garden. He stretched out his hand and handed over the invitation he had just received. "Okay, I have the invitation. Can I go in now?"
"…" The maid.
To be honest, she was about to go crazy.
He had seen arrogant people, but he had never seen someone as arrogant as this.
The invitation letter I'm talking about represents one's identity, one's status, and one's invitation from the yard master. You … what's the meaning of snatching one?
Who would do that?
More importantly … even if he wanted to do it, he had to find a place where there was no one around and do it quietly. If they didn't know about it, then so be it. Perhaps, they might just turn a blind eye and let him in.
But … to snatch it right before my eyes, do you think that I'm blind or blind?
What's more infuriating is that … after doing so, you even brought the invitation letter over to ask if I can enter …
Enter your head!
Her breathing hastened, and her chest heaved up and down, as though she would explode at any moment.
"No! You dare to snatch my invitation letter in public? You'll have to kill me if you wish to enter … "
Gritting her teeth, the maid drove her zhenqi, ready to fight to her death at any moment.
"No?"
Just as she was about to make a move to defend the dignity of the herb garden, she heard the hesitant voice of the young man before her, "Young lady, are you sick?"
The maid staggered.
Do you need to be so overboard? You're saying that I'm sick because I refuse to let you in … You're the one who's sick! Your entire family is sick!
She had never been so angry in her entire life. If she could, she would have charged forward and killed that fellow on the spot. With a flick of her wrist, a weapon appeared in her hand. Just as she was about to make a move, the young man's voice sounded once more.
"I saw that the Yangbai acupoint on your glabella is slightly red, and the zhenqi on the left side of your body isn't flowing smoothly. If I'm not mistaken, do you suffer from an intense headache every night?"
"You …" The furious maid froze. She was just about to charge at Zhang Xuan, but she stopped in her tracks.
The other party's words were spot on. She did suffer from an intense headache every night, and she felt as though the back of her head was convulsing. She had visited the Physician Guild to find a physician to take a look, but it was a pity that the physician was unable to find the root of the problem. As time went by, she got used to it.
Why would this fellow … be able to point it out so easily?
"Not only so, the meridians in your right leg aren't flowing smoothly, resulting in an imbalance in your strength. As such, you are unable to achieve a breakthrough in your cultivation. If I'm not mistaken, you must have secretly cultivated an ice-attribute cultivation technique!" The other party's voice sounded once more.
"Y-you … How did you know?" The maid was taken aback.
Recently, she had been unable to raise her cultivation. In order to achieve a breakthrough as soon as possible, she had indeed cultivated an ice-attribute cultivation technique. However, she had never told anyone about this matter, not even her close friends who lived with her. How did this fellow see through it?
"You don't need to know how I know. You were once attacked by someone who cultivated a yang attribute cultivation technique, and a surge of yang energy accumulated in your body, resulting in blockages in your meridians. You thought that as long as you cultivated an ice-attribute cultivation technique, you would be able to neutralize yin and yang energy and resolve your bottleneck, thus regaining your cultivation talent … "
The young man shook his head. "That's a good idea, but … the method you used was wrong."
The maid trembled. Her eyes widened to the point that they were about to pop out of their sockets. Her mouth was agape, but no words came out of it.
A year ago, she had indeed fought with a person who cultivated a yang attribute cultivation technique. However, due to her injuries, her cultivation stagnated, and she lost the right to cultivate medicinal herbs. As a result, she was reduced to a doorkeeper.
"It's true that yin and yang energy are mutually exclusive, but it's a pity that this surge of yang zhenqi has already fused with your meridians and blood. If you were to cultivate an ice-attribute cultivation technique, the two of them would turn your body into a battlefield. It's true that the yang zhenqi would weaken in every battle, but … the ice-attribute zhenqi would also disperse into the surroundings during a battle, entering your consciousness along with your blood. Naturally, it would cause you to suffer from a convulsive headache! "
With his hands behind his back, the young man looked at the maid calmly.
"This …" The maid's lips quivered. "Is there a way to treat it?"
The other party's words were flawless. She thought that her headache was caused by exhaustion, but never in her dreams could she have imagined that it was caused by her cultivating an ice-attribute cultivation technique.
Now that she thought about it, her headache was indeed caused from the moment she started cultivating this cultivation technique!
In other words, not only did the other party see through her illness, he even managed to find the cause of it that even the Physician Guild was unable to find!
To be able to tell that she was ill with a single glance, he even managed to find out the cause of her illness …
Who in the world was the person before her?
"The treatment method is actually very simple. Practice the Falling Flower Swordsmanship five times a day without driving your zhenqi. Ten days later, you will recover completely!" Zhang Xuan said.
"You … know that I know the Falling Flower Swordsmanship?" The maid staggered.
The Falling Flower Swordsmanship was imparted to her by Garden Owner Xue, and of all of her sisters, she was the only one who had mastered it. Even without making a move, she was able to see through it just by taking out her sword …
Why did it feel like a dream?
Snatching the invitation letter and causing Garden Owner Qingyan to spurt blood on the ground … To be able to tell that she was ill with a single glance and even offer a solution to it … Was this fellow speaking the truth?
Ignoring her question, the young man looked at her calmly and said, "The Falling Flower Swordsmanship is a technique that causes the sword to fall flowers. If you don't drive your zhenqi to cultivate, the yang attribute zhenqi in your body will be expelled along with the sword qi. Practice it five times a day, and ten days later, the zhenqi in your body will dissipate completely. At that point, even if you were to continue cultivating an ice-attribute cultivation technique, it wouldn't affect you anymore!"
Hearing that the treatment method was so simple, the maid hesitated for a moment before gritting her teeth. Brandishing the sword in her hand, she began to cultivate according to the other party's instructions.
The Falling Flower Swordsmanship caused the sword qi to fall flowers. In an instant, it was as though a paradise filled with falling flowers had appeared before everyone's eyes.
Seeing the maid execute her swordsmanship, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but be impressed. As expected of the Myriad Kingdom City. Even a maid guarding the entrance had reached Half-Transcension.
Soon, she completed a set of swordsmanship. Feeling the changes in her body, the maid widened her eyes in shock.
Even though she had only executed the Falling Flower Swordsmanship once, her body felt much more comfortable. The shadow-like yang attribute zhenqi from before had indeed dissipated slightly. Even though it was still a distance away from dispelling it completely, just this fact alone was enough to show that the other party's words were true!
It was really possible to treat her illness!
Sheathing her sword, the maid clasped her fist respectfully and said, "Thank you for your guidance!"
At this moment, her rage had already dissipated.
To be able to see through her illness with a single glance and offer a treatment method, even the physicians of the Physician Guild were incapable of such a feat... The person before her was definitely not simple.
How could such a formidable person possibly cause trouble here?
"Un!" Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually. The other party's problem was extremely simple, and it was just a slight effort on his part. Chuckling lightly, Zhang Xuan spoke with an elegant tone reminiscent of a gentleman, "May I know if I can enter now?"
"This... May I know who this gongzi is..." The maid couldn't help but ask.
Even though she had guessed that the other party wasn't simple, she still had to know the other party's identity. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to account to the garden owner.
"This is Zhang Xuan, Zhang Shi!" Jin Conghai stepped forward.
"Zhang Shi? You are... a master teacher? "The maid was taken aback.
"Un!" Zhang Xuan was perplexed.
Even a master teacher shouldn't be so nervous. Myriad Kingdom City might not have many master teachers, but there was a huge group of them. Was there a need for him to be so frightened?
"If only I knew that you are a master teacher, I wouldn't have stopped you. Other than inviting the other garden masters to the banquet, the garden master has also instructed that... as long as you are a master teacher, you are allowed to enter freely..."
The maid said.
"Master teachers are allowed to enter freely?" Zhang Xuan's body swayed weakly, and his vision darkened.
What in the world was this?
If only he had known that it would be so simple, he wouldn't have had the Demon Cinque Beast make a move. Now, not only did he have to beat the other party up, he even offered pointers... After so much effort, he realized that it was all for naught...
"Zhang Shi, this way please!" After confirming that the other party was a master teacher, the maid hurriedly gestured for him to enter.
"Un..." Suppressing his frustration, Zhang Xuan led Zhao Feiwu and Jin Conghai in. However, barely after taking two steps, the maid pointed to Luo Qingyan, who was still sitting on the bottom of the Demon Cinque Beast, and said, "Zhang Shi, Garden Master Qingyan, she..."
"Oh, you should rest by the side first. You can come back when the time comes!"
Understanding the other party's intentions, Zhang Xuan waved the Demon Cinque Beast away.
Even though the Demon Cinque Beast had misunderstood his intentions, this woman was rude to a master teacher, so it wasn't a big deal for him to teach her a lesson.
Roar!
Upon hearing the order, the Demon Cinque Beast nodded its head. Shaking its plump bottom, it flew into the sky.
"Damn it, damn it..."
Feeling that her body was about to be flattened, Luo Qingyan stared at Zhang Xuan and the others walking into the herb garden. She gritted her teeth in anger, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
As the garden master of the Qingyan Herb Garden, her standing was comparable to some of the nobles in the League of Nations. When had she ever suffered such humiliation!
To be sat on by a spirit beast... was an insult to her!
Even though the other party was a master teacher, she couldn't take this lying down.
"Garden Master Qingyan, what's wrong?"
Just as Luo Qingyan was filled with rage, she suddenly heard a surprised voice. Following which, she saw a young man walking over. There was a master teacher emblem pinned on his chest, and there were four dazzling stars on it.
