Chapter 225 Rhetoric
Yin Shi.

Liang Shimu and the others had already gone back to sleep by the time they were in the early morning, leaving only the three young masters in the courtyard.

"Is this the third time?"

Xiao Youqi's cold voice rang out. He looked at Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin beside him, and he was already 90% certain that his bold guess was true.

Yue Xunzhu looked over, her expression gentle, elegant, and dignified, revealing no flaw whatsoever.

"What?" Shen Quelin asked.

Xiao Youqi stated directly, "Three times, and I had an epiphany."

For some people, even a single moment of enlightenment is incredibly difficult, but Shen Youqing achieved enlightenment three times in a row.

Is it that the soul bone is too overpowered, or is she herself just outrageous?

When Xiao Youqi said this much, Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin both understood what he meant.

But when did he become suspicious?

Is this when Shen Youqing is planning to shift the blame elsewhere?
“You two don’t need to be too wary. I’m not an enemy.” Xiao Youqi wasn’t fixated on getting a clear answer. He offered a reminder: “The unusual activity tonight has probably already attracted the attention of Sect Leader Zhang and the others. You two should think about how to explain this to the outside world.”

Given Xiao Er's obsession with Shen Youqing and Shen Youqing's special feelings for Xiao Er, he and these two will inevitably become in-laws sooner or later.

Since we'll all be family from now on, it's no big deal for him to help out in advance.

Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin exchanged a glance.

"Shen Youqing will also be going to train his body in another hour, we can ask him..."

"Squeak-"

The sudden sound of the door opening interrupted Shen Quelin's words. The three of them looked over and saw Xiao Ke standing at the door, and then he stepped out.

?

Seeing his elder brother's gaze, Xiao Ke's cold voice rang out, "It seems that my brother already knows."

If he still doesn't understand after all this commotion, then he's brainless.

"Hmm," Xiao Youqi replied indifferently, "Don't worry."

With his elder brother's assurance, Xiao Ke immediately felt much more at ease.

Yue Xunzhu looked at Shen Youqing peeking out from behind the door, her expression turning helpless and amused.

"Come here." Shen Quelin beckoned to her.

Shen Youqing walked over with his hands behind his back, and thinking about the mess he had made, he couldn't help but smile sheepishly, "I was just meditating for a while, I didn't expect it to..."

He had three sudden enlightenments in a few hours; it would be strange if others couldn't see through his trick!
Nobody told her that this is how soul bones increase the probability of enlightenment!

If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have dared to meditate like that!
"Just tell everyone that you had an epiphany, I had an epiphany, and your camellia had an epiphany." Yue Xunzhu quickly came up with an explanation. "You fed one of the Epiphany Pills to the camellia tree."

Given the commotion last night, even if Jinjin didn't intend to shift the blame, he would still have to take action.

Shen Youqing nodded honestly.

Looking at Shen Youqing, who was still in the early stage of the Golden Core realm, Shen Quelin asked with some surprise, "He hasn't even reached the middle stage of the Golden Core realm yet?"

"I've suppressed it." Shen Youqing wiped his face. "I can't break through."

I'll just stick to physical training for now; I won't dare to meditate!
Shen Quelin responded.

After finishing their business, Yue Xunzhu asked a seemingly unrelated question, "By the way, what's Young Master Xiao doing in your room?"

“He came to me to ask me something, and then I kept him here to protect the Dharma,” Shen Youqing said.

Yue Xunzhu glanced at Xiao Ke with a strange expression, then looked at Xiao Youqi.

These two brothers are both incredibly perceptive.

“I can swear an oath,” Xiao Ke said.

Upon hearing this, Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin did not stop them.

Human hearts are fickle, but vows are not, for they will be struck dead by lightning.

Shen Youqing looked at Xiao Ke, who was about to raise his hand to swear an oath, and reached out to grab his sleeve and pull his hand down. "There's no need."

She chose to tell her senior brother the truth, which means she trusts him.

Since you've chosen to believe, there's no need for this. Xiao Ke lowered his eyes to look at Shen Youqing. The light in the courtyard was dim, making it difficult to discern the expression in his eyes.

Shen Quelin and Yue Xunzhu looked at Shen Youqing, but ultimately remained silent.

"I'm going to exercise." Shen Youqing stretched.

It's already this late, and going back to rest won't give you much rest. You might as well go exercise.

"Swordsmanship." Xiao Ke tugged at Shen Youqing's sleeve.

Shen Youqing responded and turned to walk towards the backyard.

Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin followed, ready to see what kind of riddle the two were playing.

Xiao Youqi had no intention of resting for the time being, so he followed along to watch the excitement.

When they watched Shen Youqing teaching Xiao Ke swordsmanship, the three of them had different expressions.

Despite using the same sword technique, Shen Youqing was more skilled and adept at it than Xiao Ke.

Xiao Youqi knew this sword technique; it was something the Xiao family had found for Xiao Er some time ago.

In other words, Shen Youqing, like Xiao Ke, learned everything on the job.

But the gap between the two is just too big.

"Could it be that Miss Shen is also born with a sword-like bone?" Xiao Youqi suddenly blurted out.

Yue Xunzhu shook her head.

Shen Quelin stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "If Shen Youqing was born with a sword bone, then I should also be born with a sword bone."

"What are you daydreaming about?" Shen Youqing's slightly disdainful voice came through the phone. "It's not even dawn yet!"

Shen Quelin glared at the person.

What's wrong with him having a dream?
Since Shen Youqing wasn't born with sword bones, it can only mean that she has good talent.

“Miss Shen is a natural-born swordswoman,” Xiao Youqi said.

While teaching Xiao Ke, Shen Youqing said, "I refuse to be flattered to death. I am just a talisman master."

She has already created her own swordsmanship. One cannot go down a single path to the end. After achieving a certain level of success, one should try to conquer other professions.

"Aren't you a healer?" Yue Xunzhu asked slowly.

Shen Youqing spoke with unwavering confidence, "A talisman master who can't heal isn't a good body cultivator!"

Yue Xunzhu chuckled.

"If you said she wasn't proficient in everything she studied, I could understand, but the thing is, she excels at everything she studies." Shen Quelin couldn't help but shake his head. "It's truly enviable!"

He uttered words of envy, jealousy, and hatred, but his tone was full of emotion and pride.

Seeing Shen Quelin's expression, Xiao Youqi's cold voice rang out, "You can learn alchemy. You're a natural alchemist with top-grade fire spirit roots, or you can become a weapon maker."

Shen Quelin looked at Xiao Youqi and asked sincerely, "Will I be killed in the explosion?"

Thinking of Shen Youqing's outrageous culinary skills, Xiao Youqi looked at Shen Quelin's clear and eager eyes and couldn't help but suggest, "Sword cultivation is good; specialize in one."

Shen Quelin: ...

Don't think he didn't see the wariness and fear in Xiao Youqi's eyes!
Shen Youqing is Shen Youqing! He is him!
Having taught her enough, Shen Youqing let Xiao Ke practice on his own while she prepared to go to the training ground to exercise.

Shen Quelin also went there on the way.

When the brother and sister arrived, the group of disciples who were cultivating couldn't help but glance at the sky.

It's not even Chen Shi (7-9 AM) yet, how did they get here?
All the disciples were cultivating, so they only glanced at it before turning their attention back to their own cultivation.

By the time Shen Youqing finished his body tempering, it was already broad daylight.

When Zhang Youli came to block the person, he saw that Shen Youqing had already finished his body training.

"You weren't the one who had those three moments of enlightenment last night, were you?" Zhang Youli asked Shen Youqing.

Shen Youqing shook his head. "I only had an epiphany once. The other two times were with my brother and my camellia tree."

Upon receiving the reply, Zhang Youli responded. Seeing that Shen Youqing's spiritual energy had become much stronger, he advised, "Breaking through too quickly is not good for your future. Focus on building a solid foundation and don't rush into breakthroughs."

Shen Youqing raised his hand in a salute, "Yes."
