mbler personality, too. She once bet in the Dragon Gate tournament and thus had collected information about Wandering Star.Moreover, the fights between Le Youran and Guxing that have happened recently...Chapter 556: Daughter 2
Although he did not acknowledge being the Third Master's son back then, he had interacted with the Third Master’s family for some time. And his sisters always treated him as a brother; thus, he somewhat accepted this kind of relationship.
"Zhuque Thunderbolt, let's talk somewhere else."
After chatting about trivial matters, Free and Easy seemed to start the main topic. Everyone knew that bringing Zhuque Thunderbolt over must mean something happened, and everyone was curious as to what it could be.
"Whatever you have to discuss can just be said here; there are no outsiders around." The Miss said with a glance at Free and Easy, seemingly implying that he was hiding something from them.
"Miss Zhuque is the guest. There are some things I don’t want you guys to know about," Free and Easy replied with a look back at her, as if to say, "You talk too much."
In reality, it wasn't that Free and Easy didn’t want Miss Zhuque to know his affairs; the reason was not him but rather Zhuque Thunderbolt.
The matters he wanted to discuss were some secrets of the Zhuque family. He definitely did not want her to hold back.
"Haha, I see, then you guys go talk." Miss said with a smile; although Free and Easy’s words were vague, she was no fool and understood his meaning.
Zhuque Thunderbolt looked at Free and Easy but didn’t say anything. She walked to an isolated place together with him and wanted to know what he had to tell her.
"Umm... Miss Zhuque..." Free and Easy thought about how to explain his situation.
"Just spit it out," Zhuque Thunderbolt said directly; she was a straightforward, hot-tempered person who disliked beating around the bush.
"It’s just a small matter. I want your family’s martial arts techniques." Free and Easy said with a smile that seemed rather insidious.
"Techniques Which one do you need Let me see if I can get it for you," Zhuque Thunderbolt asked.
“It's the technique you practice...”
"The one I’m practicing... Are you kidding me The one I practice is the Divine Phoenix Technique. It’s our family’s inheritance; we never teach it to outsiders." Zhuque Thunderbolt was stunned and then looked at Free and Easy in confusion, wondering if he was joking with her.
"I'm not joking around. I just need this technique as a reference..." Free and Easy continued his smile.
Zhuque Thunderbolt gazed at Free and Easy with her beautiful eyes that moved up and down while asking, "Are you sure you’re not joking The Divine Phoenix Technique is the strongest martial arts technique (this was her family’s pride), but without Phoenix bloodline heritage, it's impossible to practice. You should be practicing your family’s Mo Yun Technique instead; this one doesn’t suit you."
"If you were going to hand over a copy of this technique to someone with the Phoenix bloodline, let that person come and find me personally. Anybody who has the Phoenix bloodline can practice the Divine Phoenix Technique as long as they become part of our family," Zhuque Thunderbolt added at the end.
Sometimes, there would be a spread in the bloodlines; those with bloodlines didn’t belong to their original families and did not have the sense of belonging that came from being part of an original family. However, they could practice techniques, which resulted in some techniques going outside the families. Thus, even if only someone with a bloodline could practice them, the techniques would never be easily handed out.
In such situations, families would usually take people into their fold; and if they refused to join, then those people wouldn’t be allowed to practice this type of technique at all or would otherwise be eliminated.
Zhuque Thunderbolt naturally didn't think that Free and Easy intended to practice the Divine Phoenix Technique for himself because it was impossible. He wasn't even part of the Zhuque family’s bloodline.
But unexpectedly, he really did plan on doing this.
"I need to take a look at this as a reference; I require some bloodline techniques to fill in certain gaps. The Luo Family's Mo Yun Technique is within my reach of sight, but the Divine Phoenix Technique is more powerful and better suited for what I want." Free and Easy said.
"As a reference To compensate for something Don’t you want to create your own technique Are you crazy Even ordinary techniques are difficult to create; creating bloodline techniques sounds even harder. It seems like you’re quite sick," Zhuque Thunderbolt said while touching Free and Easy’s forehead.
And she found her statement itself rather humorous; it seemed impossible for him to want to create a technique.
"I’m not crazy, I don’t plan on creating techniques but fusing them. This is a different concept altogether; fusion is much simpler than creation," Free and Easy said seriously, though even this still sounded shocking to the world.
Only a peerless master can integrate martial arts techniques, but being a peerless master doesn’t mean one is an unparalleled expert. Even if you cultivate to the divine realm, it’s not certain that you’ll become a master, let alone a peerless master. Everyone understands this.
The difference between a master and an expert lies in the fact that a master can fully utilize a martial arts technique and create something unique of their own, which they can also pass down to others.
That’s just regarding martial techniques; even masters usually don’t manage cultivation methods. They’re unable to innovate new things. Only peerless masters who appear once in several hundred years could possibly attempt it.
This is still just a possibility, not something that applies universally...
Zhuque Thunder naturally had some doubts about this since she didn’t really understand Xianyao’s claim to be doing what only peerless masters can do. However, if someone like Miss Senior Sister were here, they wouldn't think so.
They all knew that Xianyao was destined to become a master because he taught others and improved martial techniques while correcting cultivation methods. He just lacked the power required for the title of a master, but in some aspects, he already surpassed ordinary masters.
Xianyao’s current goal is actually quite simple: he wants to create a method to cultivate his own "dragon force" within him and grow its strength so that it can be used more perfectly.
Even though he could currently use it, he felt it wasn’t perfect yet. Relying solely on the power of a lion wouldn’t suffice; other cultivation methods were needed as well. He tried Moryun Technique and Xuanwu True Qi but found them incomplete. However, there was something interesting: whether due to his "dragon force," his Lu family bloodline, or his practice of Shen Nong’s Scripture, he could use the defensive capabilities of Xuanwu True Qi, even though it wasn’t as powerful.
So, regardless if he aims to perfect his dragon force cultivation, he would still collect these lineage techniques and test them out. Zhuque Divine Technique is one of the most desired by him.
Zhuque Divine Technique has the strongest offensive power among bloodline techniques; Xianyao previously mentioned its power without trying to flatter them, but simply stating a fact.
"Even if you’re capable, we won’t easily give our Zhuque Divine Technique. You need to become part of our Zhuque family first. How about it I’ll introduce some beautiful sisters for you," said Zhuque Thunder with a smile. The latter part was more playful, as she wanted to tease Xianyao.
"That’s unnecessary; I’ll offer terms in exchange. Believe me, they will agree." Xianyao replied; he had already prepared himself for negotiations. Although cultivation techniques are important, with the right conditions, an agreement could be reached.
After all, Zhuque Divine Technique can only be practiced by those with Zhuque bloodlines. This limitation means that if Xianyao offers something moving enough, they would agree to his terms.
However, these terms must be extraordinary and not ordinary, as the Zhuque family isn’t just any family; it’s a superpowerful one. They aren’t easily swayed by common treasures.
"Okay then, tell me what your conditions are to see if they’re suitable," Zhuque Thunder readily entered into negotiation mode since she wasn’t very familiar with Xianyao. If there were terms to exchange, it would be based on the value of those terms rather than favoring him.
"How about Ten pills of Spirit Refining Pill" said Xianyao after some thought, using medicinal pills for negotiations since he was going to refine them anyway.
Upon hearing this, Zhuque Thunder froze; it took a while before she could speak again. "Spirit Refining Pill You mean the kind that can break through any bottleneck"
The ability to overcome bottlenecks includes breaking into the divine realm. While there’s only a chance of success, it greatly increases the possibility of doing so; everyone would need such an opportunity.
However, refining Spirit Refining Pill isn’t simple and its ingredients are difficult to find. This kind of pill is rarer than phoenix feathers and tortoise shells in the world. Even the Zhuque family doesn’t have many, let alone ten. Just a single one would move them.
"That’s right, that Spirit Refining Pill. How about it Can I take a look at your Zhuque Divine Technique" Xianyao asked with a nod.
"I need to discuss this with my father first; I’ll give you an answer tomorrow," said Zhuque Thunder, although she felt the deal was likely to be struck. However, since her father is the head of the Zhuque family, he must approve it before any decision can be made.
She didn’t doubt Xianyao’s ability to produce them; if he couldn’t provide them, there would be no need for her to give him anything, as she insisted on seeing the goods first.
What puzzled her was how Xianyao had Spirit Refining Pills and even used such rare treasures in exchange for something seemingly useless. Yes, most people thought this way; only Xianyao believed it useful, but that’s all that matters to him. What others think doesn’t concern him.
"Sure, if you don’t mind, stay here tonight since I have plenty of rooms," said Xianyao with a smile, preparing to host his guest as a sign of hospitality and to receive news sooner. (To be continued...)uld definitely seek revenge unless he made her realize it was impossible."Immortal powerhouse F*ck, not this again! I won't be able to take revenge then!" The miss lady said with a slightly disappoint...
