Chapter 24
“Is that so? I wonder if you’ll have the chance to report back!” Mu Qianyue let out a cold smirk then accurately pierced a silver needle onto an acupoint, rendering him mute.
Huang Dagang opened his mouth in horror, only to realize that he couldn’t make a sound. His body fell limply onto the ground, like a pile of mashed meat. It was hard for him to even stand, let alone write.
“Someone!” Mu Qianyue bellowed. As her voice fell, a shadow guard appeared in front of the medicine storage room.
“Huang Dagang’s failed pill refining attempt led to his cauldron exploding. His meridians have been completely destroyed, his voice disjointed, and his vocal cords damaged. He has turned into a cripple. The Defender Marquis Manor never keeps useless people. Throw him out.” Mu Qianyue smiled coldly, showing not an ounce of pity.
In response, the shadow guard picked Huang Dagang up and tossed him out of the Defender Marquis Manor without a single word.
Since she had taken care of this eyesore, Mu Qianyue entered the medicine storage room again. After picking out several tens of medicinal herbs, she returned to the Mu Qianyue and started refining medicinal liquid.
…
The night was very dark.
A rush of white swooped across the shadows, looking like the bright moon in the sky.
“Master, if you don’t like this marriage agreement, then your subordinate will help you kill her.” Cangming half-knelt on the ground and said to the young man who was standing quietly under the pear blossom tree.
“No need.” Nalan Jing looked up.
“But, what if she were to discover your secret after marrying yー” Before Cangming finished his words, he was interrupted by Nalan Jing.
“You aren’t allowed to hurt her.” As if recalling something, a gleam flashed in Nalan Jing’s silver eyes and his lips curled up slightly. As the sky was slightly darker, Cangming didn’t see the smile on his master’s face.
“Yes.” Cangming could only leave helplessly.
…
Mu Qianyue spent the night refining medicinal liquid, not feeling tired at all. On the contrary, she was very spirited.
After going to the Mu Rufeng and providing him with the promised acupuncture treatment, she said, “Elder Brother, gather all the shadow guards in the manor. I have something to say.”
“Alright,” Mu Rufeng gave the command and Mu Qianyue’s lips curled up into a light smile. One good thing about her elder brother was that no matter what she said, he’d never ask the reason. He would always believe in her without any reason and was willing to indulge her whims, no matter how big or small.
Very soon, 300 shadow guards filled up the Defender Marquis Manor’s training grounds. The summoned guards were all the Defender Marquis Manor’s elites.
“These are Spirit-Summoning Liquids that can cleanse your marrows and expand your meridians. It will help strengthen your physique. Everyone will get one bottle,” Mu Qianyue said before she distributed them.
Hearing her words, everyone’s expression was dumbfounded. Spirit-Summoning Liquid? That miraculous liquid could expand the meridians and change one’s physique? Only the Spirit-Summoning Pill had such effects, right?
Although they were in doubt, they still took the medicine without any hesitation. They believed that Young Master and Young Miss wouldn’t harm them.
Within moments, a wave of curses broke out across the training ground.
“F*ck! What stinks so badly?!”
“Did you fart? If you have sh*t, then go and pass it out!”
“To hell with you! You’re the one who farted! Did you not wash your feet for another half a month?”
“What the hell?! It’s only been ten days! You’re the one who hasn’t bathed for two years!”
“…”
Hearing that, Mu Qianyue’s lips couldn’t help but twitch. This group of people… As expected, few men liked to keep clean. Even Mu Rufeng’s countenance changed, looking very helpless.
“Huh? I just bathed yesterday. Why am I so oily and stinky?”
Only after hearing that person’s words did everyone notice a grimy layer on the surface of their skin. That revolting stench came from their body!
“Hmm?! Why do I feel that I’ve leveled up… Ah! I really leveled up! I’ve leveled up! I’ve broken through to a fifth-stage Spirit Cultivator!”
“I advanced as well! Wahaha… I advanced by two stages!”
“Wuuu… I’ve finally attained a breakthrough to the Venerate Cultivator! I’ve been stuck at ninth-stage Spirit Cultivator for six whole years!”
Thereafter, agitated bellows rang out all across the training grounds.
“Alright, stop with the ruckus. Quickly go and take a bath.” The moment Mu Rufeng spoke, the ruckus instantly became quiet. Everyone aligned themselves and left in an orderly fashion to wash up.
Seeing this, Mu Qianyue’s eyes gleamed when she looked toward Mu Rufeng. It seemed that her elder brother’s status in their hearts was very high.
Half an hour later, everyone returned to the training grounds once again. At this moment, their gazes were filled with respect when they looked toward Mu Qianyue.
An Apothecary would be respected no matter where they went to. Let alone the fact that the Eldest Young Miss wasn’t an ordinary Apothecary!
Could ordinary Apothecaries refine such heaven-defying Spirit-Summoning Liquid? This Spirit-Summoning Liquid was definitely a second-grade one or even higher! Moreover, she took out 300 bottles in one go!
Eldest Young Miss was really rich and imposing!
“You are all elites of our Defender Marquis Manor, nurtured by my grandfather. Therefore, you are my men as well! I hate being lied to, heaven forbid if anyone even thinks of betraying us. Once I find out, I’ll kill them!” Mu Qianyue’s gaze swept across everyone like a sharp blade, arrogant, overbearing and extremely domineering.
“I believe everyone has felt the benefits of the Spirit-Summoning Liquid and knows of my identity. Yes, I am an Apothecary and I’m not a merely low-grade one! The Defender Marquis Manor might seem strong now, but it’s actually very weak beneath our staunch front. Therefore, our expectation is that you must all get strong very quickly. To do so, we’ll be increasing the intensity of your training to the next level! Even if you cannot become Sovereign Cultivators, it’ll still be feasible to become Monarch Cultivators!”
Everyone’s expression turned solemn, then changed to those filled with a mixture of excitement, agitation and shock. Become Monarch Cultivators? All of them?
They never dared to dream of something astounding! One could already be called a great expert if they were to become Monarch Cultivators!
Let alone the elusive Sovereign Cultivators.
“There are 300 bottles of Essence Cultivation Liquid here and they will help your advancement. Everyone will get one bottle.”
“Thank you Eldest Young Miss! We pledge our lives to the Eldest Young Miss and the Defender Marquis Manor!”
From his position at the side, Mu Rufeng nodded in approval. Not bad. Yue’er knew the principle of first giving them a slap, followed by a sweet. Now that Yue’er had gotten the shadow guards to submit to her, there was no need for him to be as worried as he was in the past.
…
Over the next month, Mu Qianyue and the shadow guards underwent all types of brutal training together. These regimens included training hand strength, arm strength, leg strength, flexibility, excavating potential, tracking, anti-tracking, and assassination.
Although the training was relentless and pushed them to their limits, the effects were apparent.
Mu Qianyue’s body that had been weak, was now tempered to become tougher, her movements filled with strength and agility. She was now a ninth-stage True Cultivator, only one step away from becoming a Spirit Cultivator.
Meanwhile, the shadow guards also became stronger on a tremendous scale, with most of them becoming Venerate Cultivators!
…
In the Heaven Connecting Tower.
“Woman, you really don’t want your life anymore, do you? Can your body take it when you’re cultivating at such a crazy pace?”
A gleam appeared in the depths of Tianshuo’s eyes.
Huang Dagang opened his mouth in horror, only to realize that he couldn’t make a sound. His body fell limply onto the ground, like a pile of mashed meat. It was hard for him to even stand, let alone write.
