Chapter 41 Inquiry

"The bloodline of King Wu will gradually become thinner as it is passed down, but occasionally the bloodline will return to its ancestors."

Li Xunxian explained in detail to Tian Xiaoyu: "Bloodline reversion, to put it simply, means that King Wu's bloodline becomes richer. This has happened to many King Wu families. There are even alchemists in the empire who specialize in this."

"Is that so?"

Tian Xiaoyu understood that his bloodline should not have returned to his ancestors, but this was a good excuse. In addition, the alchemist was an alchemist. He was very respected in the Dawu Empire and had a high status.

Li Xunxian looked at Tian Xiaoyu and asked, "Speaking of which, which King of Martial is your ancestor?"

"King of Ice and Fire Martial Arts, I heard that my surname is Xiang!"

Tian Xiaoyu did not hide anything. After all, he was not a wanted criminal, and Li Xunxian was his master.

Hearing this name, Li Xunxian's eyes widened suddenly and he asked in disbelief: "Xiang Wuhen, the King of Ice and Fire! Are you a descendant of Xiang Wuhen?"

"The King of Ice and Fire, Xiang Wuhen?"

Seeing Li Xunxian's big reaction, Tian Xiaoyu couldn't help but be stunned. Is there any problem? He asked: "Master, my ancestor is very famous?"

"More than just famous!"

Li Xunxian laughed loudly, looking at Tian Xiaoyu with eyes full of schadenfreude, and he said: "Your ancestors had a nickname, called Tianwang Laozi, do you think it is famous or not?"

"So arrogant?"

Tian Xiaoyu was a little surprised, and then said nonchalantly: "Just be arrogant, it won't affect me anyway!"

Li Xunxian chuckled and said: "Who said it can't affect you? It has a big impact!"

"Um?"

Tian Xiaoyu blinked and asked hurriedly: "Have the descendants of Ice and Fire King not been pardoned?"

"Forgiven. Officially speaking, you are not guilty."

Li Xunxian said: "However, official status does not mean everything. Do you know why your ancestors rebelled?"

"It should be the same as other anti-kings, right?"

Tian Xiaoyu shook his head and said: "To be honest, I don't know him at all. If my father hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have known that I had this status."

Li Xunxian laughed loudly and said: "It's different. The reason your ancestor rebelled was because he robbed Emperor Wu's woman and had to rebel."

"Stealed Emperor Wu's woman? Really or not, he even dared to steal Emperor Wu's woman?"

Tian Xiaoyu's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on his face. Isn't this ancestor really good at seeking death?

"How else could I be the King of Heaven?"

Li Xunxian continued with a smile: "What he snatched was Emperor Wu's most beloved concubine. Emperor Wu was so angry that he swore in front of his ministers that he would cut her into pieces."

"My ancestor is really brave!"

Tian Xiaoyu was completely speechless and asked: "Master, what happened next?"

"I don't know, after all, it happened hundreds of years ago, but if you dare to provoke Emperor Wu, the consequences will definitely not be good, otherwise your lineage would not need to change its name."

Li Xunxian shook his head, he chuckled and said: "Boy, don't even think about entering the officialdom in the future, because the royal family doesn't like you very much. Although they won't kill you, you don't have any room for advancement."

"It's nothing. Anyway, I didn't want to be an official."

Tian Xiaoyu shrugged and said: "Besides, no one knows that I am a descendant of the Ice and Fire Martial King except your master."

"You'd better keep this matter a secret. The King of Ice and Fire has offended far more people than you think."

Ever since he learned that Tian Xiaoyu was a descendant of the Ice and Fire Martial King, the smile on Li Xunxian's face never stopped. He said: "He can be described in eight words, full of evil deeds and notorious!"

"Notorious and notorious?"

Tian Xiaoyu swallowed his saliva and asked, "Who else has he offended?"

Li Xunxian looked at Tian Xiaoyu, suddenly suppressed his smile and said coldly: "There are many people, including our Wu Ming lineage!"

Tian Xiaoyu was stunned: "Ah? Is it true or false?"

"Really, didn't I say before that three lifeless golden needles were lost? One of them was stolen by your ancestor, the King of Ice and Fire."

Li Xunxian nodded and said: "The reason why your ancestor wanted to grab the lifeless golden needle was because he thought it was fun. Wait, is that lifeless golden needle in your house?"

Tian Xiaoyu spread his hands and said: "It's definitely not here. Even if it is really here, it would have been sold by my ancestors a long time ago. Don't you know how poor my family is?"

"That's true!"

Li Xunxian nodded, and then gloated: "In short, this secret cannot be leaked, otherwise you will be beaten every day!"

Tian Xiaoyu said with black lines on his head: "Is this your attitude as a master?"

Li Xunxian laughed loudly: "It's true that this is not the attitude of a master, but I feel so happy when I think about you being unlucky!"

Tian Xiaoyu became more and more speechless, what kind of master is this who deceives his disciples?

"It's been eight lifetimes of bad luck. First there was an ancestor who cheated his descendants, and now there's a master who cheated his apprentices!"

Tian Xiaoyu sighed and decided to hide his identity forever. He stretched out his hand and said: "Master, where is my five hundred taels? You can't cheat your apprentice's money!"

Li Xunxian snorted: "What kind of person am I?"

Tian Xiaoyu nodded very seriously: "Yes, you just cheated your apprentice!"

Li Xunxian rolled his eyes and said, "Since the five hundred taels were given to you by the Guo family, then leave them with me first and I will find a way to help the Guo family."

Tian Xiaoyu's eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly: "Can you help the Guo family? If so, I can find a way to get some more money."

"Although this boy is cunning, he has a good character."

Li Xunxian glanced at Tian Xiaoyu appreciatively and said: "You misunderstood. This matter about the Guo family has to be heard by Datian. No one can help. I mean to make them feel better in prison. Those jailers are quite greedy."

.”

"That's it, then I'll leave it to Master."

Tian Xiaoyu was a little disappointed, and he said: "By the way, Master, if you find the Guo family girl, can you find a way to send her out?"

Li Xunxian said: "Guo County Lieutenant has arranged this matter. You don't need to worry too much. Your top priority is to take good care of your body to avoid any sequelae!"

"I understand, Master!"

Tian Xiaoyu nodded and then asked: "Master, your situation seems to be worse than mine?"

"I am a formal warrior, this injury is nothing to me!"

Li Xunxian didn't want to talk more about his own affairs. He waved his hand and said, "Recover your injury as soon as possible. When you recover, I will teach you the real lifeless golden needle."

Tian Xiaoyu asked in confusion: "Master, why was it that I could use the Lifeless Golden Needle before, but now I can't?"

"It worked before because the Patriarch's Seal was helping you. You are still far behind, and you haven't even laid the foundation yet!"

Li Xunxian waved his hand impatiently and said: "Go and rest first, and I will introduce you slowly later!"

"Yes, Master! You always have a good rest!"

Tian Xiaoyu nodded and returned to his side. He looked out the window and thought of the Guo family. He couldn't help but sigh, hoping that they would be safe and sound!

Guo Chong had beaten him so many times before, but he hadn't beaten them all back yet!

Two days passed in a blink of an eye. On this morning, Tian Xiaoyu was practicing the Emperor Wu Changquan vigorously in the room. Li Xunxian was dumbfounded. Isn't this too standard? It can be used as a textbook!

"How do you achieve such a standard? Practice in front of a mirror? Even if you use a mirror, there is no reason to be so standard?"

Li Xunxian looked puzzled. Soon, Tian Xiaoyu finished a set of long punches. He walked up to Li Xunxian in high spirits and asked: "Master, I have almost recovered. When will you teach me the Lifeless Golden Needle?"

Li Xunxian snorted and said, "Now I know it's urgent. Wasn't it disdainful before?"

Tian Xiaoyu said with disdain: "Master, are you a little petty? Do you still remember what happened hundreds of years ago?"

"It was hundreds of years ago, but it was just a few days ago, okay? Also, are you so insignificant that you dare to say that Master is petty?"

Li Xunxian said angrily, he has been very angry with Tian Xiaoyu these days. He sometimes wonders whether he has accepted a disciple or an angry person? Someone who is specifically angry with him!

Tian Xiaoyu asked: "Master, let me ask you, am I not allowed to lie in front of you?"

Li Xunxian said matter-of-factly: "As a disciple, of course you cannot lie to the master!"

Tian Xiaoyu asked with a puzzled look: "Then what's my fault? You are indeed petty. Master, do you want me to lie?"

Li Xunxian was trembling with anger. He took out a lifeless golden needle from his arms and said angrily: "Do you believe that I will clean up the house now?"

Tian Xiaoyu shrugged and said, "What does it have to do with you cleaning up your family? I didn't make any mistakes. I'm the best disciple in history!"

"What kind of bad luck did I have to accept you as my apprentice?"

Li Xunxian slapped the lifeless golden needle hard on the table and cursed: "You are truly worthy of being a descendant of the Ice and Fire King, and you are equally annoying."

Tian Xiaoyu said seriously: "Maybe when the bloodline returned to the ancestors, the temper also returned to the ancestors."

"Go away, I've never heard of a person who can return to his ancestors even if he has a bad temper."

Li Xunxian laughed in anger. He thought for a moment and asked, "Do you want to learn the Lifeless Golden Needle?"

"Nonsense, why should I become your teacher if I don't want to learn?"

Tian Xiaoyu rolled his eyes and nodded: "Master, I want to learn!"

Li Xunxian's eyes flashed and he said: "If you want to practice the lifeless golden needle, you must first open your spiritual awareness!"

Tian Xiaoyu was puzzled: "What is spiritual sense? I only know vision, hearing, touch, smell, and taste!"

"Spiritual perception is to use spiritual power to perceive external objects."

Li Xunxian said: "This is why our lineage needs spiritual talent."

Tian Xiaoyu asked doubtfully: "How can you perceive foreign objects with your mental power?"

"You will naturally know by then that, in fact, high-level warriors all have spiritual senses, which can help us sense the enemy's movements faster and more accurately."

Li Xunxian looked at Tian Xiaoyu with a smile on his face and said: "The untransmitted secret method of our Wuming Golden Needle lineage can develop spiritual awareness in advance. This is a good thing that countless warriors dream of and has many benefits."

Tian Xiaoyu suddenly felt horrified, and he asked carefully: "Master, why do you feel that your smile is full of malice?"

Li Xunxian smiled even more: "Apprentice, you must be wrong. I am a good master who cares about his apprentices. How can I have any ill intentions? Even if the apprentice hates me every day, I will not have any ill intentions!"

Tian Xiaoyu complained: "Isn't it obvious that you have malicious intentions?"

Li Xunxian snorted and said impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, do you want to practice?"

Tian Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I have to practice, but you have to tell me how to practice first!"

"In order to practice Qing Gong, ancient people would jump off the cliff and use the horror of life and death to force out their potential."

Li Xunxian said with a smile: "The secret method of cultivating spiritual awareness is similar to this. To put it simply, it is just seven words, risk death and then live!"

Tian Xiaoyu took a breath of cold air and asked in a shocked voice: "Jump off the cliff and die to survive? Master, do you dare to say that there is no harm?"

"Each generation of descendants of the Lifeless Golden Needle is cultivated in this way."

Li Xunxian pretended not to hear what Tian Xiaoyu said, and continued: "Don't worry, Master will not harm you, let alone add ingredients during practice, absolutely not."

"It would be strange if you don't know!"

Tian Xiaoyu rolled his eyes, gritted his teeth, and said, "I will put myself to death and live another life. Master, I want to cultivate my spiritual awareness."

"remarkably brave!"

Li Xunxian nodded with satisfaction and said: "However, if you want to cultivate your spiritual sense, you must first cultivate your five senses, that is, the five senses to the extreme, so that you can stimulate your spiritual sense. Otherwise, even if you die and live another life, it will be useless.

"

Tian Xiaoyu was a little surprised: "Five senses? Taste too?"

"of course yes!"

Li Xunxian nodded and said: "Xiaoyu, you are my disciple. In addition to inheriting my martial arts, you also need to inherit my medical skills, so your taste also needs to be cultivated."

"clear!"

Tian Xiaoyu nodded and said: "Master, I am more interested in poisons, please remember to teach me more."

Li Xunxian had black streaks all over his head. Why is this kid so fond of poison? Just as he was about to say something, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside. He glanced out the window and said, "The people from the Chivalrous Alliance are finally here.

."

Tian Xiaoyu said happily: "I can finally go out. I am so bored. For two full days, there is only one old man in the room!"

"I, this old man, really feel sorry for you?"

Li Xunxian rolled his eyes fiercely and shouted: "Why are you standing there in a daze? Why don't you help me up quickly!"

"Yes, Master!"

Tian Xiaoyu smiled and walked over to help Li Xunxian up. In fact, Li Xunxian's injuries had recovered a lot. The reason why he let Tian Xiaoyu help him was purely to show his master's style.

Soon, people from outside knocked on the door and came in. The leader was Dean Huang, followed by three people, one middle-aged, one old, and one woman.

Dean Huang greeted him familiarly: "Old Li, you are in good spirits!"

"I told you not to call me Lao Li!"

Li Xunxian said angrily: "I'm not old at all!"

Dean Huang was about to say something when the woman behind him said unhappily: "Li Xunxian, you're not dead yet. I'm really disappointed."

"There is gossip!"

Tian Xiaoyu's eyes immediately lit up, and Li Xunxian snorted coldly: "Jin Xiaoling, I won't die even if you die. By the way, if you don't teach students at Nanyun Martial Arts Academy, what are you doing here?"

Jin Xiaoling said disdainfully: "Xiao Wu asked me to come and take a look. According to me, it would be better if you, a scumbag, are dead."

"Did Xiao Wu ask you to come?"

Li Xunxian was silent when he heard this. After a moment, he asked: "Is she okay?"

Jin Xiaoling snorted coldly: "You're not dead, how can she get better?"
