5. Dong Xian’s Disciple

Dong Xian was actually able to impress Yi Lian. As this spread around the banquet, Dong Xian's family servants cleaned up the blood puddles on the floor. Those people who learned of that issue somehow magically spat out blood. It seemed that being a cultivator caused you to spit out blood a lot. The servants treated the matter like it was normal.

The people who had heard about the matter spat out blood, because Dong Xian was known as a local womaniser and a scumbag who showed off frequently. The Princess should have higher standards than that right??? They pondered over the issue for a long time, before Dong Xian spoke.

"What do you want of me? My father has already spoken my name." Dong Xian said with an annoyed voice.

Dong Senior sat at the chair and was scrunching his face. He really wanted to give this fellow of his a good beating to wake him up. He was talking to the Princess, the Princess! If he displeased her somehow, the Emperor would not hesitate to wipe their Li family off of Xian Valley.

However, Yi Lian was convinced by his odd behaviour that he was an ancient old geezer from another time. She hurriedly said, "I need to speak with you," , before pulling him aside to a random corner of the Li manor. She went down on her knees.

Dong Xian was shocked at such a sight. He had not intended to make the Princess become his disciple. What he needed was Currency, not gratitude from disciplines that form golden pages. [1]

"I do not intend for anyone to become my disciple, because I am too weak and also have no intention to teach others." Dong Xian replied to Yi Lian with a straight face. However, Yi Lian did not take this lying down.

"I will offer you my secret martial arts techniques to get you to accept me as a disciple." Yi Lian offered him. It was lying to oneself if Dong Xian said that he was not tempted. He started to think about how he would finally have some techniques he could use. Yi Lian thought that he was thinking about teaching her, so she became excited.

Dong Xian told her," I will teach you one of my special techniques for your manuals." Yi Lian was shaking in delight as she realised that he had accepted the deal. She did not even realise it was weird that if he was truly powerful, he would reject it immediately.

It was easy to do the Soul Foundations technique. It was as easy as drinking and eating as it was just like linking body to the soul. Soon, Yi Lian learned and cultivated the technique and gave Dong Xian the secret manuals. The manuals were Berserk Pummel and Recoiless Kick. Yi Lian tested out her punches and was satisfied with the power increase.

After Yi Lian walked back to the banquet, people commented on why her, a mid-tier beauty, suddenly became a ravishing beauty.

Dong Xian's Mother and his sister became jealous that Yi Lian became the center of attention again. Dong Xian was also surprised. He did not know the technique made one look better. No one had commented on how his appearance had changed.

Dong Xian decides to read Recoiless Kick first. Just then, a system notice popped up. As he read the notice, his eyes lit up and his breath hastened...
