At the same time.
Li Mu rode the chrysanthemum leopard and returned to the Holy House.
"Young Master is back." An excited smile appeared on Hua Xiangrong's face. Like a little wife welcoming her husband's return, she naturally handed the hot towel for Li Mu to wipe his face, and at the same time, took over the coat he took off and hung it on the hanger.
In the past three or five days, except for going to the military cemetery to absorb the Spiritual Qi in the Earthvein, Li Mu spent the rest of the time in the Holy House, and did not go to the yard of the Shack in the Pig-Herding Alley.
"Hua 'er, did you gain anything from your cultivation today?" Li Mu sat down to drink tea and asked with a smile.
Hua Xiangrong nodded excitedly and made a gesture. Then, a gust of wind gushed out of her palm and instantly blew away the dust on Li Mu's outer robe. Then, she said, "I think my spiritual force has reached the four-star realm …" After Li Mu's indoctrination and explanation these days, Hua Xiangrong had learned many realms of cultivation and was no longer the little idiot who practiced cultivation as she was at the beginning.
"The combat capability of a warlock in the four-star realm of spiritual force is equivalent to the peak of the Joint-qi level, and one step further is the Joint-thoughts level." Li Mu had to admire her.
In less than ten days, from an ordinary person who knew nothing about martial arts, she became a four-star warlock who was comparable to a first-class master at the peak of Joint-qi level. In a shocking way, Hua Xiangrong finished the practice road that most people would need three to five years to finish. If this was spread out, it would definitely cause a sensation.
All the advantages of practicing the simplified version of the Xiantian Skill had been reflected in Hua Xiangrong.
And the most obvious change was her appearance and temperament.
Compared with before the practice, Hua Xiangrong's skin was whiter and more lustrous, like the finest jade. Her skin seemed to be emitting a faint glow, and her temperament had improved to a higher level. She was more and more beautiful, bright and clean, as if she was the Moon Goddess who fell from the Ninth Heaven to the human world.
Several times, when Mrs. Bai of the Holy House came in, she looked at Hua Xiangrong with surprise.
"Is this the nourishment of love?" Since she followed Li Mu, this girl had become more and more beautiful. Her eyebrows and eyes were full of spring. In the past, Hua Xiangrong was a bud, but now, she was like a flower in full bloom in the fairy world, breathtakingly beautiful.
"Good. What a Taoist cultivator fears the most is to be approached. So, what I taught you before were all defensive Taoist magic arts. You have already practiced them very well. Today, I will teach you a few more Taoist magic arts. They are different from the self-defense Taoist magic arts before. This time, I will teach you the art of killing and attacking. You have to experience them carefully," Li Mu said.
In terms of cultivating Hua Xiangrong, Li Mu really put in a lot of effort.
"Don't worry, Young Master. I will definitely study hard," Hua Xiangrong said softly.
Her interest in Taoist magic arts was like that of a child who had seen a toy. At first, it was indeed a novelty. But as time went on, she would lose that enthusiasm. And the only reason that made her eager to learn and practice hard was Li Mu.
Compared with mastering a kind of Taoist magic arts successfully, Hua Xiangrong most enjoyed the process of learning Taoist magic arts with Li Mu. Women immersed in love were all blind. Love could easily turn people into lunatics and fools.
Hua Xiangrong did not think how precious and rare the Taoist magic arts that Li Mu taught her were, which were enough to shock the world.
And Li Mu, who devoted himself to cultivation and improving his strength, did not think how the goddess of light, who was indifferent to any other man, was so obedient to him.
The two people, the man and the woman, were both immersed in their own emotions, full and happy.
He and she could be said to be born in a blessed life without knowing it.
But then again, what is a true blessing? How could the young people of today clearly distinguish it?
Some things and some people, after all, had to be experienced, seen, and tasted, and then looked back to be clear.
One did not know the true face of Lushan Mountain because he was in this mountain.
Because the person involved could not see clearly.
About an hour later, Li Mu taught Hua Xiangrong a total of 11 kinds of thunder magic arts, including Heaven Thunder Attraction, Heaven Shocking Thunder Fall, and Five Thunders Magic Arts.
From shallow to deep, Hua Xiangrong did not understand it at first, but later, as if she had been enlightened, she grasped them faster and faster. When she pinched her palm, lightning was generated in her slender hand.
Fortunately, Li Mu had set up a tactical deployment around the room to suppress the breath.
Otherwise, he was afraid that some "people" outside would have been alarmed.
"Brother Mu, how is my learning?" Hua Xiangrong's eyes were bright, and a kind of charming and charming that only Li Mu could see bloomed unreservedly on her delicate white oval-shaped face. As they had been together for a long time, she did not know when she began to call him Brother Mu instead of Young Master.
Li Mu's mouth twitched. "Not bad, just so-so."
"F * ck, it's really a case of comparing goods with goods and people with others."
The speed at which Hua Xiangrong grasped Taoist magic arts was just like a genius with an IQ of 150 doing elementary school math problems, fast and accurate. Even Li Mu was not as good as her. At this time, the horror of the Natural Light Taoist Figure was displayed incisively and vividly. It was really a physique that was naturally compatible with Taoism, especially when practicing Taoist magic arts. It could be said that she had a photographic memory, which was extremely abnormal.
This also strengthened Li Mu's determination to teach her Taoist magic arts.
A peerless god of Taoist magic arts that could dominate the universe was slowly being cultivated.
Of course, it was just Taoist magic arts. The cultivation of martial arts and internal qi was not so fast.
The cultivation of martial arts needed a certain amount of time to polish, and it also paid attention to laying the foundation from an early age. Hua Xiangrong was now 17 or 18 years old, and indeed missed the best time to practice martial arts. Compared with the geniuses who trained their bodies and cultivated their meridians from an early age, she fell behind a lot. Therefore, Li Mu did not think about letting Hua Xiangrong practice martial arts. It was not necessary. It was too wasteful for such a delicate beauty to sharpen her body and practice hard skills like a boorish man.
Li Mu's position on Hua Xiangrong was very clear, that was, a god of Taoist magic arts.
With the Taoist magic arts taught by the old faker and her Natural Light Taoist Figure, Hua Xiangrong could definitely grow into the most powerful god of Taoist magic arts on this planet in time. With a thought, she could overturn rivers and seas and move mountains. Even the so-called heads of the top nine Holy Clans could not be a match for Hua Xiangrong.
After a while, the maid Xin 'er came in and said that Mother Bai Xuan wanted to see him.
Li Mu smiled and nodded.
After a while, the graceful Bai Xuan came in.
She first greeted Li Mu, and then said to Hua Xiangrong, "The Musical House sent a message. Sister, you have entered the top 20 of this Top Beauty Competition. Three days later, the opening ceremony of the Top Beauty Competition will be held in the Cloud-hugging House. First, there will be a large-scale auction ceremony to auction some female officials, especially the wife and daughter of the former State-revitalizing General, and the female slaves captured from the grassland. Then, the real Top Beauty Competition will be held …"
According to Bai Xuan, the original auction day of General Tang's wife and the grassland women had long passed, but in order to boost the excitement of the Top Beauty Competition, the auction schedule was temporarily changed, and it was delayed to the day of the competition.
Bai Xuan introduced the whole process.
With Hua Xiangrong's current reputation in Chang 'an, entering the top 20 was certainly a piece of cake.
However, when Li Mu heard Bai Xuan's words, for some reason, he recalled the scene of the Musical House's floats parading through the streets when he came out of Chang 'an that day. Then, the image of those grassland women locked in iron cages immediately emerged in his mind.
In particular, the woman who was called the Virgin Goddess of the Wolf Temple was extremely beautiful, as if she were an Asura Valkyrie.
"Brother Guo Yuqing also came from the vast grassland."
"It's a pity that such a woman has fallen into the clutches of the devil."
Li Mu sighed.
Then, he heard Bai Xuan said cheerfully, "I heard that this time, the Musical House has put in a lot of effort. So, today, in Chang 'an City, many big shots from the nearby provinces and prefectures have come. It is more lively than any previous Top Beauty Competition, and the scale is also the largest in history. Sister Hua, if you can win the first prize, you may even have a chance to challenge the ghost coffin of the first beauty in the Western Qin Empire. At that time, our Holy House will really have a turnaround."
Hua Xiangrong, however, shook her head calmly, without the slightest longing, and said, "I've already followed Brother Mu. I'm not interested in the title of the first beauty in the empire at all. I just want to help you, mom, gain some fame for the Holy House, and repay you for your protection over the years. Besides, I'm still far from being the first beauty in the empire."
Bai Xuan just smiled and did not refute.
To be honest, if it were in the past, Hua Xiangrong was indeed not good enough to compete for the first beauty in the empire.
However, during this period of time, perhaps because of the nourishment of love or other reasons, Hua Xiangrong seemed to have been reborn. Her appearance and temperament soared, and she seemed to be shrouded in a layer of white mist like an immortal, which made her mysterious, holy, and extremely beautiful.
Even Bai Xuan's mom, who was used to seeing beautiful women, sometimes felt her heart beat faster when she saw Hua Xiangrong. With such temperament and charm, it was not completely hopeless for her to compete for the first beauty in the empire.
Li Mu suddenly said, "The wife and daughter of the founding general were sent to the Musical House?"
Although the Musical House was used to detain women from the families of officials who had committed crimes, the State-invigorating General was still a first-class official. But he had no idea what crime he had committed that he ended up in such a miserable state that his wife and daughter could not be saved. Moreover, even if such an official's family was ruined, his wife and daughter should not be sent to the Musical House in Chang 'an. Generally speaking, they should be sent to the Musical House in Qin City, the capital, right?
