In the palace, Lian Xing retracted her gaze, still wanting more.
In front of the door.
Moon Lotus Slave also retreated.
Yao Yue's eyes flickered as Su Xin's poem praising her flashed through her mind. The anger in her heart disappeared as she said softly,""Young Master is not wrong. I was too calculative. Please forgive me.
My master has a way to treat young master's old illness. When my master comes out of seclusion, I will definitely ask my master to treat young master.”
Yao Yue's tone was cold and her expression was calm. She apologized, but there was no sign of apology on her face.
However, Su Xin didn't dare to care.
He knew that Yao Yue had always believed that he was innocent. Even if she was wrong, she would not apologize to him and would have fought him long ago. At this moment, she only pitied him for being an ordinary scholar.
"I have been poor since I was a child and am weak and sickly. Every winter, my whole body will ache and my legs will tremble. This old illness is beyond cure and medicine is difficult to cure.”
Su Xin once again added a label to himself-he had fallen ill in his early years.
Yao Yue did not suspect anything. She sympathized with Su Xin's tragic experience and added,""My master is a divine doctor."
Previously, she had given Su Xin the Shifting Flower Palace's pill, Hundred Herbs and Hundred Flowers Pill, to cleanse his meridians and marrow, and to transform his body. Even if Su Xin had any old ailments, he had already recovered.
Just now, it was the Heart Devouring Bugs that had woken up and bitten his heart meridian.
However, Yao Yue did not make it clear.
This was because once the Love-severing Pill entered the body, it would turn into a Heart Devouring Worm and enter the heart meridian, fusing with it. Even if Yao Yue's cultivation base was high, she would not dare to rashly remove the Heart Devouring Worm for Su Xin.
In the early years, when she and Lian Xing had developed the Love Severing Pill, they had used the cold air from the Thousand Year Frost Jade Bed, the supreme treasure of the Shifting Flower Palace, as the antidote to make the Heart Devouring Bugs fall into a deep sleep, and then remove them with inner energy.
She and Lian Xing had both used the Icy Jade Bed to cultivate.
Su Xin was not only a man, but their relationship was not that good. Even though Yao Yue felt guilty, she did not make up her mind to let Su Xin use the Icy Jade Bed.
The two of them walked into the palace.
"Miss Ming Yue, what are you here for?" Su Xin probed.”
Su Xin was well aware that Yao Yue did not have a good first impression of him. In addition, he was afraid of Yao Yue. At this moment, he only wanted to send Yao Yue away as soon as possible.
At this moment, he was even more determined to escape from the Shifting Flower Palace.
" The other day, I heard the song of birds paying homage to the phoenix in the Moon Gazing Mountain," Yao Yue said calmly." Young Master's zither skills are superb. When you played the song, all the birds within a hundred miles gathered.”
"Therefore, when I heard that my master invited young master to come to my house as a guest, I immediately came to ask young master for advice on the zither.”
Yao Yue spoke frankly about her purpose for coming.
Martial arts and zither arts were different paths that led to the same destination.
Yao Yue wanted to seek Su Xin's guidance to help her breakthrough in her zither arts. She wanted to use this opportunity to help her break through in martial arts and achieve a breakthrough to the ninth level of the Clear Jade Technique.
"Young Lady is too polite, I will definitely teach you everything I know.”
Su Xin's words were filled with arrogance, not a hint of subservience.
After all, he was a zither grandmaster.
Lian Xing stood still, looking as if she had just seen Yao Yue. She said in surprise,"Ah, sister, you're here too."
"Miss Mingyue, Miss Xing 'er, you're actually sisters?”Su Xin revealed a surprised expression.
Just now, when Yao Yue had not come, Su Xin had learned of Lian Xing's alias-Xing 'er-through his conversation with her.
"Sisters!"
Yao Yue added, but she did not look in Lian Xing's direction.
"Since the two of you are here to learn from me, then I will bring you to the piano room to enjoy tea and play the piano. Isn't that beautiful?" Su Xin hurriedly said.”
The three of them did not delay and immediately entered the piano room.
The environment of the piano room was quiet. Outside the window, there were rockery, ponds, and green willows. On the left and right walls, there were all kinds of zither, jade zither, and xylophone.
"Little Sheng, go to the tea room to get a tea set and brew a pot of tea for the two ladies.”
Su Xin invited Yao Yue and Lian Xing to sit on the left and right sides of the seat of honor. He walked to the tea room by himself and picked a bag of expensive tea leaves from the shelf. He brought the tea set back to the piano room.
"I grew up in a poor family and am not good at tea.”
Show off your flaws, set off your opponent
Yao Yue and Lian Xing were both talented, so they immediately saw that Su Xin's movements were clumsy and rusty.
Yao Yue was expressionless.
However, Lian Xing understood that this was because Su Xin's family was poor in his early years and did not have the material foundation to learn the art of tea.
At this moment.
Su Xin's hand, which was brewing tea, paused for a moment, and he was pleasantly surprised. An electronic voice sounded in his mind, reminding him that he had learned the art of tea and that he had learned many tea ceremony techniques.
"Ding dong!"
"Lian Xing's favorability has increased. Congratulations, host. You have learned the art of tea. The art of tea has increased. Current realm of the Way of Tea-Beginner (33/500).”
"Congratulations, host, your tea ceremony skills have improved.”
"Congratulations, host, your tea ceremony skills have improved.”
For a time, the system notifications in Su Xin's mind kept ringing.
Su Xin glanced at Lian Xing from the corner of his eye and noticed the smile on her face. He instantly understood that it was his weakness that had increased Lian Xing's impression of him. He immersed himself in the system and realized that the Way of Tea had reached the Advanced Level (530/1000).
The first stage, Beginner, required 500 proficiency points.
The second stage required 1000 proficiency points.
And so on.
The eighth realm, Return to True, required 1000000 proficiency points.
"I see."
Su Xin was secretly happy. He finally understood the luxury of the Newbie Gift Pack. The three maxed out skills had saved him a lot of time. Unfortunately, he didn't have any martial arts manuals.
In an instant, Su Xin slowed down his movements. His expression was solemn and extremely solemn, as if he was doing something sacred.
"First glimpse of the door? Ascend to the inner realm?"
Yao Yue and Lian Xing looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Su Xin poured out the first pot of tea and said lightly,"Although I'm not good at the Way of Tea and rarely brew tea, I believe that the Way of Tea is no different from the Way of Guqin.
The heart is interested, the tea is affectionate.
The heart has no intention, the tea is heartless."
Yao Yue was stunned. She repeated Su Xin's words as if she had understood something.
She couldn't help but think of Ximen Chuixue of Wanmei Villa. He was known as the Sword God in the martial world. Before killing someone, he would always burn incense, bathe, and fast for three days. He was extremely devoted to the way of the sword.
Was this the reason why Ximen Chuixue's swordsmanship was invincible?
Yao Yue recalled the past and realized that she would only play, paint, and practice calligraphy when she was in a bad mood. She had never enjoyed it calmly, nor had she thought about the principles behind it.
