The Body of Nine Yin

Mu Dinggua waved his hand, and two servants carried Ling Yun away.

Of course, the Mu family would not just throw someone out on the street.

They only opened a room for the unconscious Ling Yun in their own hotel.

What would happen to him afterward was none of the Mu family's business.

The Mu family was very unhappy about Ling Yun bringing his martial arts skill to show off.

Giving him such an arrangement was already quite considerate given their past rapport.

After Ling Feng was carried away, the atmosphere in the hall immediately turned cheerful and harmonious again.

Xuanyuan Long and Mu Dinggua were enthusiastically discussing business deals, and for a time the host and guest were both happy.

Abruptly,

a cold wind swept through the entire hall, and everyone shivered in unison.

Sitting in her chair, Mu Jianping was clutching her stomach with cold sweat dripping down.

Zhao Ruoxue was the closest and felt the chill most intensely.

She quickly noticed something was wrong here.

"Miss Mu, Miss Mu, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Ruoxue's voice drew everyone's attention.

Mu Dinggua looked at Xuanyuan Long, "Brother Xuanyuan, this...I'll have to trouble you to take a look."

Xuanyuan Long nodded and calmly said, "No problem. Let me offer congratulations, your granddaughter is no ordinary person!"

Mu Dinggua was somewhat puzzled, not understanding what his old friend meant.

Xuanyuan Long did not keep him guessing: "If this old man has not seen incorrectly, your granddaughter possesses the rare Nine Yin Constitution."

"From birth, her whole body was icy cold. As she grows older year after year, this chill will also grow stronger and stronger."

Mu Dinggua nodded, "What Brother Xuanyuan said is right. When my little Jianping was born, her body was so cold that the nurses thought she couldn't be saved."

Listening to their conversation, Ye Feng recalled his knowledge about the Nine Yin Constitution.

He puzzlingly asked, "That can't be right, Master. If she really had the Nine Yin Constitution, how could she have lived to this age without any cultivation?"

Ye Feng could discern at a glance that Mu Jianping was just an ordinary person. How could an ordinary person withstand the erosion of the Nine Yin Constitution?

Xuanyuan Long just smiled without explaining. He looked at Mu Dinggua and said, "It seems Brother Mu has been hiding quite a treasure!"

Treasure?

Mu Dinggua was rather baffled. He really did not know of any treasure.

Seeing Mu Dinggua's lack of reaction, Xuanyuan Long continued, "Oh? Could it be Brother Mu is unaware that your granddaughter is wearing the Bright Masculine Stone?"

Mu Dinggua was completely confused, "Bright Masculine Stone? What is that?"

Seeing that Mu Dinggua truly did not know, Xuanyuan Long raised his hand and made a pulling motion.

A fiery red jade pendant slowly floated up from Mu Jianping's fair neck,

appearing before everyone's eyes.

Mu Dinggua of course recognized this jade pendant.

Back when his granddaughter had just been born and the doctor determined she was doomed to die young,

he happened to buy this warm jade pendant at an auction.

Thinking it could dispel the chill in her, he gave it to his granddaughter as a gift.

He never expected this jade to have such great origins.

Mu Dinggua asked curiously, "Could this be the so-called Bright Masculine Stone Brother Xuanyuan spoke of?"

"That's right, this is the Bright Masculine Stone."

"To be frank, if not for that Ling Feng's poor conduct, he and your granddaughter would have made a fine match."

Xuanyuan Long stroke his beard and slowly said.

Mu Dinggua played along, "Oh? How so?"

"That Ling Feng boy has the innate Nine Suns Constitution. If he dual cultivated with your granddaughter's Nine Yin Constitution, the effects would be doubled."

"Moreover, these two constitutions have severe individual flaws that ordinary partners simply cannot withstand."

"But they complement and reinforce each other."

"And this Bright Masculine Stone, being of the ultimate Yang energy, has an immense suppression effect on the Nine Yin Constitution. "

"That is also why your granddaughter has been able to live this long."

"Of course for the Nine Suns Constitution, the Bright Masculine Stone provides excellent assistance with cultivation, comparable to having a Nine Yin Constitution dual cultivator."

"Naturally the Bright Masculine Stone only treats the symptoms and not the root cause. Allowing your granddaughter to live this long is already its limit."

"Ling Feng's appearance happened to catch this crucial timing."

"If you want your granddaughter to stay alive, she really has to marry him. "

"Otherwise, she will gradually turn icy cold throughout, the chill growing more and more severe, and she will soon perish."

Xuanyuan Long leisurely expounded at length on the connections between the Bright Masculine Stone, the Nine Yin Constitution, and the Nine Suns Constitution.

Everyone listened with great interest.

It took Mu Dinggua quite a while to react, "So...so my granddaughter..."

"No need to worry. Before I came, that was indeed the best solution, but now..."

Xuanyuan Long naturally understood Mu Dinggua's thoughts and deliberately left them hanging.

Mu Dinggua anxiously asked, "How about now?"

Xuanyuan Long chuckled, "Now it's still the best solution..."

Mu Dinggua stood up angrily slamming the table, "You...joking at a time like this!"

"Hey, don't get agitated first. I didn't lie to you. Their combination for mutual enhancement and strengthening is still the optimal method."

"But that doesn't mean there are no other ways to resolve this problem."

Xuanyuan Long stopped joking and earnestly stated next.

Mu Dinggua sat back down and asked, "What method?"

Xuanyuan Long enunciated word for word: "The Secret of the Nine Yin."

"What the heck is that? Isn't that something from novels?"

Not only Mu Dinggua, but the others were also completely baffled.

Xuanyuan Long pointed at the floating jade pendant, "Fiction originates from reality. Isn't this the best proof?"

Ancient martial arts did exist after all.

The major families were all more or less connected in some way.

It was just too incredible for such a familiar name to suddenly pop up like this.

It took Mu Dinggua a good while to digest this reality. He asked, "Then where can one find this Secret of the Nine Yin?"

Xuanyuan Long kept silent and pointed at himself.

"Damn, Master you are way too unfair! Hiding such good stuff all to yourself." Ye Feng was very dissatisfied. The Yellow Emperor's Internal Canon that he had painstakingly learned was nowhere near as renowned as the Secret of the Nine Yin.

If I could start over...several hundred years ago...I'd pick...

Inwardly Xuanyuan Long rolled his eyes. I didn't even know it back then! If not for recently mastering the entire skill storehouse, maybe I still wouldn't be your match now!

Of course he absolutely could not say that openly. It involved Ye Bu Fan's secret.

So Xuanyuan Long put on a resentful look as if hating iron for not becoming steel, "It's because your aptitude is too dull. If you could master a martial art skill in three days, then even with ten years you could already deplete all your master's collection."

Mastery in three days would need ten years to empty out the collection? Ye Feng felt his scalp go numb. He really did not know enough about his master. Forget it, the Yellow Emperor's Internal Canon wasn't even flawless yet. He should just diligently keep cultivating.

After the master and disciple finished their argument, Mu Dinggua spoke up, "In that case, does Brother Xuanyuan have this wondrous skill? Just name your terms. As long as it's within my ability, I will certainly not decline."
