"You're right. This illness is quite troublesome, and while there are some coercive methods, they all come with side effects. It’s better if you use your cultivation techniques to replace rest; it won’t affect your body or mind anyway," Xianyao didn't insist.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. While I'm still here, I'll help you take more books from the Wei family collection, but you need to spend more time chatting with me," Wang Yanyu said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xianyao immediately replied.

“Hmm, that's good. This is exactly what I want in my minister. Or shall we go together I can take you to see even more books,” Wang Yanyu said.

“No, I still have other things to do. Besides, I don't like following others; I prefer being a small servant boy.” Xianyao shook his head and refused. Following Wang Yanyu would certainly bring benefits, but considering the balance, these advantages wouldn’t be many, and subtracting the added troubles, it would not be worthwhile.

Now, wasn't Xianyao doing well by utilizing the resources of the Black Tortoise Clan to benefit himself If he followed Wang Yanyu, he’d become a personal attendant and would be watched closely; how could he then use the resources

"I knew you wouldn’t agree. You’re really an interesting person—I wonder what you want… Never mind, I won't think about it anymore. Let’s continue chatting; I found this book today..."

Wang Yanyu entered into small talk mode again, and Xianyao habitually entered into the accompanying chat state. He didn’t expect that Wang Yanyu's casual chat would actually be related to him.

"This book is called 'Youthful Travels'—it was written by someone named Smiling..."

...

No way, isn't this my book Originally I wanted to find someone through this book, but after so much time has passed, the book became popular, but there’s been no information about that person.

It seems the woman who appeared in the small village was not very famous; she might not be from the Azure Dragon Empire. It looks like I’ll have to wait longer for more information.

This matter doesn’t need to be rushed either; twenty years have already passed, and if I rush it, people will discover that I’m here, which could cause unnecessary trouble.

So Xianyao planned to continue like this, and after cultivating those few women into peerless martial artists who can dominate the world, then he would publicly look for them.

This time should not take long...

"This book is written very well..." Xianyao casually replied.

“Yes, it’s really good. But what I find interesting about this book are the illustrations; I’ve seen that woman before!” Wang Yanyu said.

Huh Saying she's seen her, wait a minute...

Xianyao now truly had the feeling of "finding what one seeks without looking for it"…

"What You’ve seen her" Xianyao paused in surprise as he looked at Wang Yanyu.

“Yes, I have. What’s wrong with you Why such a big reaction.” Wang Yanyu looked at Xianyao, seemingly wanting to find something on him.

"I've also read this book. That woman is very beautiful; I like her." Xianyao smiled and said she was his goddess, his dream girl.

If it were so, then that would explain the situation; his surprise wouldn’t be out of place!

"Could there really be such a person" Xianyao asked again, as if he really wanted to know.

“I don't know either!” Wang Yanyu shook her head and said.

“Your Majesty, are you teasing me” Xianyao asked. If she's seen her before, how can she not know

"No, I’m not teasing you; I really don’t know if there’s such a person. It was just in an illustration." Wang Yanyu shook her head.

“An illustration” Xianyao had a headache. Could this be the illustration he painted Then this wouldn't be finding what one seeks without looking for it, but rather pouring water into a bamboo basket!

"Hmm, an illustration; it should have been two years ago when I was staying at the Tian Yuan Qi family. It was in a room and seemed to belong to some relative of the Qi family." Wang Yanyu recalled, if she hadn’t had perfect memory, she probably wouldn't remember this.

Two years ago That means it isn’t the illustration I drew; then it’s not pouring water into a bamboo basket after all.

"Did you ask about it" Xianyao asked.

"Why am I asking It's none of my business. You seem to be very concerned about this, do you have some ulterior motive" Wang Yanyu looked at Xianyao with eyes as if trying to see through him.

Xianyao frowned slightly and said, "Yes, I do have a purpose. I want to find this woman!"

Wang Yanyu looked at Xianyao in surprise and said, "I thought you would continue deceiving me. Never expected that you actually admitted it! Give me a reason."

Xianyao understood that Wang Yanyu probably felt something, which was why he directly admitted to his purpose. Firstly, this matter wasn't about being afraid of others finding out; rather, he just didn’t want any trouble.

However, if real troubles did come up, he would face and solve them!

At the same time, he also understood that Wang Yanyu wouldn't leak this matter. Even if she knew the whole story, she wouldn't tell others because they understand each other.

"I want to investigate her for some things, but I can't be discovered in the process. So, I published a book hoping someone would expose her information." Xianyao replied. He admitted that he was behind the book without hiding anything. Yet, why he wanted to find this person remained unsaid.

This matter wouldn’t casually come out of his mouth even if he knew others wouldn't tell anyone else. It wasn't necessary to explain it!

"You wrote this book This doesn't seem like something you'd do, your speaking style is completely different from the author's, and the literary depth of the book is profound; if you were serious about it, you could indeed manage." Wang Yanyu frowned slightly. Recalling Xianyao’s knowledge level, she couldn’t deny that he might be the writer.

When discussing this book previously, it was just coincidental and she found the book intriguing, so discussed it with Xianyao; upon seeing his reaction, however, things seemed unusual.

Xianyao only showed slight signs of interest. Others might think nothing strange about it but Wang Yanyu knew there must be a problem. After chatting for months nearly every day, she had never seen such an expression from Xianyao even when she dropped heavy hints. Even when a major revelation was made, he would just shrug it off.

Especially then, he could ignore things before her eyes; that kind of attitude showed he wouldn’t worry even if the sky fell apart.

Now Xianyao had shown such an expression. If she didn't find this odd, there would be a problem!

She never imagined Xianyao was actually the author of this book and that writing it was to look for someone within. This method was unprecedentedly unique, and she couldn’t fathom how he thought.

If he had such time to write books, why not do something practical instead Wait, he wasn't one to waste time either; could it be this book didn't take much of his time

Should that really be the case, then many literary figures would cry in despair...

"How long did you write for"

"About three days. If not busy with work, two days could suffice."

"... "

Incredible; it was still written during his free time Those people wouldn't just cry in despair but find a rope to hang themselves directly.

Wang Yanyu didn’t ask about other matters. She no longer asked why he wanted to find this person or who that person was, as she knew understanding Xianyao's reasons would be enough.

"That uncle is the father of a girl I met there. It was her dragging me in to see it; however, I don't know who this painting depicts and didn’t ask further. I can tell you that this girl goes by Qi Shujun!" Wang Yanyu told Xianyao everything she knew. She didn’t mention the father’s name since she wasn’t sure.

With these clues, whether knowing the father's name or not was irrelevant; it could be found out regardless. Originally, just knowing Tian Yuan Qi Family would suffice, and it was only a matter of time anyway. Now that they know Qi Shujun’s name, things became even simpler.

"Understood, I’ll go take a look at Tian Yuan in some days." Xianyao nodded indifferently. He had no intention to rush there; he would wait until everything here was done and prepare thoroughly before going.

Due to this behavior and expression of Xianyao’s, Wang Yanyu misinterpreted it as not being important. She couldn’t imagine that Xianyao intended to seek his origins.

This calm demeanor coupled with the mention of checking out in some days made anyone think such a matter wasn't significant. Even someone who understood Xianyao like Wang Yanyu thought so.

Perhaps it was just something else on Xianyao’s agenda; everyone has many things to do, and not everything needs to be important!

"Today, I want to introduce a martial art that is quite interesting. It seems poetic and artistic, founded by an elder who combined literature with martial arts..." Wang Yanyu started her daily routine of sharing one or two martial arts with Xianyao.

Xianyao was very interested in such unique martial arts as they allowed for many new insights, not just in martial arts but also elsewhere. These arts contained various elements that could be referenced extensively.

While discussing with Wang Yanyu, his internal energy continued to circulate and cultivate the Shen Nong Decree; this showed he wasn’t simply multitasking but effectively managing three tasks at once.

Lately, Xianyao noticed an acceleration in his cultivation progress. Not knowing why, as neither his method nor environment changed, yet his progression was speeding up, approaching levels seen on Shenwu Continent and continuing to rise.
