Chapter 276 Obtaining Magical Skills
The Ouyang family.
Xiao Chen returned to this place, with Tong Qianjun following behind him.
Having already spent several days with the Ouyang family, Xiao Chen was now preparing to take his leave.
"Tong Qianjun? What are you doing here?" Ouyang Muxue was originally excited to run out to greet Xiao Chen, but she was surprised to see Tong Qianjun behind her.
She thought Tong Qianjun would continue to pester her relentlessly.
“Miss Mu Xue, I apologize for any offense I may have caused you in the past. Please rest assured that I will not bother you again.” Tong Qianjun bowed and said with a complicated expression.
Ouyang Muxue was even more puzzled.
Tong Qianjun is not the kind of person who gives up easily. Even though she has clearly refused many times, she still cannot persuade her to change her mind. Why has she changed her mind today?
She glanced at Xiao Chen beside her, and her pretty face flushed red.
She was his woman; he must have used his power to persuade Tong Qianjun to stop bothering her.
"I am now my master's guard, and I will be by his side from now on. I cannot be troubled by personal feelings for my children," Tong Qianjun said again.
"What?" Ouyang Muxue's pretty face froze.
She even doubted that she had heard correctly.
Tong Qianjun actually addressed Xiao Chen as "master"...
That's Tong Qianjun, the number one genius in the South District, a proud and arrogant man!
How could he possibly bow down to anyone?
Moreover, it's gotten to the point where they worship others as their masters...
Ouyang Muxue was quite shocked, her face filled with disbelief.
"I never imagined that the Tong family's genius could be subdued..." Ouyang Zhu came out, also looking incredulous.
If a young prodigy at the King level were to bow down to a peer, it must be because the gap between them is enormous; otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be truly convinced.
"Tong Qianjun, will the Tong family agree to this?" he asked Tong Qianjun.
"Whether they agree or not is irrelevant. It's my own decision, and no one has the right to interfere," Tong Qianjun said calmly.
Ouyang Zhu stopped asking questions and turned to Xiao Chen.
Before he could speak, Xiao Chen interrupted him.
"Old man, shouldn't you take out that incomplete copy of the Medical Canon and let me take a look?"
Ouyang Zhu chuckled twice and said, "It's just a tattered copy, useless to the Ouyang family. Why not give it to you? It's just that I don't know where it's been thrown away. I'll have to search for it carefully. Don't be in a hurry, stay a few more days."
Xiao Chen's face darkened.
If we stay in the Ouyang family any longer, who knows how many more underhanded tricks that old bastard might have up his sleeve.
"The incomplete copy of the Medical Canon is in the Ouyang family's secret chamber," he said calmly.
Ouyang Zhu's expression froze.
“If you don’t give it to me, I’ll go get it myself. Those traps won’t stop me,” he added.
Having no other choice, Ouyang Zhu had to go to the secret room himself.
“Here you go,” Ouyang Zhu said with a dark face.
This is a fragment of half of the Canon of Medicine...
Xiao Chen had long wanted to read the medical classics that even the head of the Divine Physician lineage highly praised.
He took it and immediately opened it to read.
His eyes lit up after only a cursory glance at the contents.
The medical skills of the Chang family's ancestor were indeed top-notch; some of the records in the Medical Canon even broadened Xiao Chen's horizons.
Without a doubt, a complete medical canon is enough to create a person with superb medical skills.
Xiao Chen quickly flipped to the last page, his gaze suddenly sharpening.
It has some figures drawn on it, in different poses.
It is a method used to invigorate muscles and bones and improve physical fitness, similar to the Five Animal Frolics.
It is called "Strengthening Body Guiding Method".
Xiao Chen's heart was already racing after just two glances.
This method of strengthening the body is also found in the "Medical Bible" of the lineage of divine healers.
This is not some ordinary method for strengthening the body, but a true supreme martial art!
Xiao Chen was able to reach the Transcendent Martial Saint realm at such a young age, not only because of his powerful talent, but also because of this martial art.
It is recorded in the "Medical Bible," and only the head of the lineage of divine healers is qualified to study it.
When Xiao Chen saw that the movements in the Medical Canon differed from what he had learned, his heart skipped a beat.
The teacher had long ago said that the Divine Physician Sect's supreme martial arts only consisted of the first volume...
But the first volume alone is enough to create a top expert in the martial arts world.
Although the Divine Physician Sect once possessed superb medical skills, it lacked the ability to protect itself. Its members were often controlled by those in power and could only serve as vassals.
By chance, a sect leader obtained the first volume of a divine skill, which led to the rise of the Divine Healer Sect and its transformation into a transcendent sect, which has continued to this day.
Several generations of sect leaders had searched for the second volume of the divine skill, but to no avail.
Xiao Chen never expected that he would obtain it so easily...
It’s not a waste of time to break through the iron shoes.
"There is only half of the Medical Canon here. The second volume of the cultivation method is still incomplete. As long as I collect the Medical Canon, I can get the complete cultivation method." Xiao Chen thought to himself.
He couldn't help but feel anticipation.
He has already achieved extraordinary strength after only cultivating the first volume of the technique. If he were to obtain the complete body-strengthening method, it is unknown what level he would reach.
Perhaps, it can surpass the strongest in martial arts and open up a new realm.
"I'll accept this half of the medical book," Xiao Chen said to Ouyang Zhu.
This was promised by the Ouyang family, so they felt perfectly justified.
"Today I bid farewell to the Ouyang family." He bowed to the grandfather and grandson.
"Are you leaving?" Ouyang Muxue immediately became a little anxious.
“I have other things to do and cannot continue to bother you here,” Xiao Chen said.
“It won’t bother you at all; you can stay as long as you want!” Ouyang Muxue quickly replied.
Ouyang Zhu glared at his granddaughter with exasperation.
"Brother Xiao, you wouldn't be... trying to deny everything after you've taken advantage of me, would you?" he questioned in a deep voice.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly.
“There is nothing between me and Miss Ouyang. If you don’t believe me, you can take her to verify her identity.”
Both the grandfather and grandson were stunned when they heard this.
"What? This...this isn't right, that night clearly..." Ouyang Zhu almost let slip the secret, but quickly stopped himself.
"I don't know which thief drugged Miss Ouyang that night, but that little bit of poison was nothing to me, and I was easily cured," Xiao Chen said.
Ouyang Zhu's eyes widened, secretly cursing his miscalculation.
No wonder I fell for it that night... It turns out this kid had already neutralized it, and even made him suffer for three days and three nights.
What a loss! It's such a huge loss!
"No..." Ouyang Muxue's expression was somewhat blank, showing no joy, and even a hint of disappointment.
"I once said that whoever saved my grandfather would repay me with his life, and I will never go back on my word!" she said firmly.
“There’s no need for that. I already have a beloved, and I am not worthy of you, Miss,” Xiao Chen said sternly.
Ouyang Muxue's pretty face darkened.
"Farewell." Xiao Chen bowed again and left with Tong Qianjun.
Ouyang Muxue stared blankly, lost in thought.
"Oh dear, silly granddaughter, what are you so upset about? There's a wall in front of you, won't you fall over? It's not like it's beyond repair yet!" Ouyang Zhu scolded.
Ouyang Muxue was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up.
“Unexpected. I need to consult with the ancestors. Perhaps we need a stronger medicine…” Ouyang Zhu muttered.
