I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 132 The Road to Heaven (13)

Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

During this month, Xiao Yue successfully recovered from his injuries.

And, quite awkwardly, he offered to help Lijia Village repair the blue brick road that he had previously damaged.

The road is finally finished today.

Xiao Yue also planned to formally bid farewell to Li Boyang and return to Da Xia.

After all, although he successfully shed his identity as the "incarnation of the Witch King" with Li Boyang's help, his sense of identification with the Great Xia and the Witch King was genuine.

However, before leaving, Xiao Yue tentatively asked Li Jingshu if she would be willing to go to Da Xia with him.

To be honest, Xiao Yue's affection for Li Jingshu was obvious to the naked eye.

Even after Li Jingshu clearly expressed her refusal, Xiao Yue still taught her some basic witchcraft and combat skills.

In Xiao Yue's own words, this girl is just too suitable to inherit what he has learned.

Their physical abilities were so strong they were almost superhuman, and their intelligence far surpassed that of ordinary mountain dwellers...

Coupled with his cunning yet resolute character, he was practically the perfect disciple that Xiao Yue had always dreamed of.

Unfortunately, Li Jingshu wasn't interested in it at all.

In Li Jingshu's view, Xiao Yue was a defeated opponent of her younger brother and had no right to be her teacher.

Fortunately, although Li Jingshu did not think Xiao Yue was qualified to be her teacher, she was not foolish enough to reject his kindness to his face.

Li Jingshu accepted almost all of the witchcraft and combat techniques that the other party taught her.

Especially for those magical witchcrafts.

Li Jingshu's talent and studious spirit once again made Xiao Yue shake his head in regret.

Xiao Yue was absolutely certain that as long as Li Jingshu was willing to return to Daxia with him, his own Great Shaman would definitely take her in as an apprentice.

Ordinary witchcraft is easy to learn, and slightly more difficult spells are no problem either...

As for combat skills?
Although Li Boyang never taught Li Jingshu specific fighting techniques.

However, the foundation and physical qualities that Li Boyang laid for Li Jingshu enabled her to easily learn various highly difficult combat techniques and fighting styles.

"You really don't want to come to Great Xia with me?"

Standing at the entrance of Lijia Village, Xiaoyue, who was about to leave, couldn't help but ask one last time.

"No, I won't go. Daxia is your home, but this is my home."

Standing beside her mother, Li Jingshu's answer was as firm as ever.

On the contrary, Li Jingshu's mother opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.

The desire for one's son to succeed is the greatest hope of parents in any era.

Watching her own daughter repeatedly reject a promising offer...

It would be absolutely impossible for Li Jingshu's mother not to feel any emotional fluctuation.

However, upon thinking of Li Boyang's existence, Li Jingshu's mother wisely remained silent.

"Fine, you're right, this is your home."

"However, my invitation is still valid..."

"When you want to see the outside world someday, you can come find me at Shiniu in Daxia."

Smiling, Xiao Yue ruffled Li Jingshu's hair and gave her a few words of advice amidst her disgusted gaze.

"Besides, what your younger brother said is actually correct..."

"Witchcraft and sorcery are ultimately minor arts; they should be used as sparingly as possible."

"Especially those poisonous curses that come at a price, you should never use them unless absolutely necessary."

"No, you should learn more about magic and supernatural powers from your younger brother! That's the path to heaven you should take."

Hearing Xiao Yue's lecture, Li Jingshu couldn't help but mutter something under her breath.

“You didn’t teach me any powerful spells anyway…” Li Jingshu was very interested in spells.

Unfortunately, Xiao Yue was not a traditional shaman; he only learned spells to enhance and assist himself in battle.

"Haha, that's true. After all, I only learned some witchcraft for protection after I became a Minister of Justice!"

Finally, Xiao Yue smiled and waved to Li Jingshu and her daughter, then turned around and spread its wings without hesitation.

Using the flying techniques he had only learned in the past month, he left this paradise in a very elegant manner.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Are you really just going to let that 'Xiao Yue' leave like this?

Yawning and sprawled on a bamboo chair, Xi Luo witnessed the farewell scene unfolding from the perspective of the village's shrine statue.

"How can this be called permissiveness?"

Upon hearing this, Li Boyang retorted without even looking up.

"He's a human being, not a dog..."

"If someone wants to leave, am I supposed to chain them up?"

Gently licking her paws, Xi Luo rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"You know perfectly well that's not what I meant..."

Knowing full well that Li Boyang was pretending to be stupid, Xi Luo immediately changed the subject.

"To be honest, those combat techniques are nothing special."

"Are you really comfortable letting that girl learn witchcraft from that half-baked Xiao Yue?"

"As far as I know, witchcraft not only depends a lot on talent, but if it is not learned properly, it can easily leave various aftereffects."

“Premature aging, bloodthirsty ferocity, or even missing limbs are not uncommon.”

When she said this, Xiluo's voice paused slightly.

"If that girl really wants to learn these things, she might as well become my priest..."

"At least my 'blessing method' doesn't have those messy side effects. She just needs to learn how to make me happy."

"Blessing" is the power bestowed upon priests by the gods, and its source comes from the gods themselves.

Theoretically speaking, as long as it's not some random evil god or an overuse of divine power, there's basically no chance of any irreversible aftereffects.

At most, it's just a slight change in appearance, making them look more and more like the god they believe in.

In a sense, this is also a major reason why Li Boyang, whose hair and skin are reddish, is regarded as the "son of the mountain god".

If one didn't know the details beforehand, anyone would think that Xi Luo doted on Li Boyang, which would explain why he developed such striking abnormal characteristics at such a young age.

"Once you understand the essence of 'witchcraft,' it's not as difficult to learn as you might imagine."

Finally putting down his work, Li Boyang looked up and spoke, a rare occurrence for him.

"Moreover, after the 'Hundred Days of Foundation Building,' that girl's meridians are clear, her body is strong, and her life force is overflowing. She can be said to have a natural holy body for learning witchcraft."

"If even she has to pay a price to learn it, then it can only mean that the witchcraft itself has a huge flaw."

"I believe Xiao Yue has this much understanding; he certainly wouldn't teach those flawed witchcraft techniques to the girl."

Xi Luo raised her eyebrows slightly, and only then did she finally feel completely at ease.

"So you had everything planned out all along?"

"If I had known it would turn out like this, why would I have bothered with all this trouble!"

Xi Luo rolled her eyes again as she pulled her attention away from the statue at the entrance of Li Family Village.

"So, what exactly are you doing right now?"

"You've been busy like this for a month now, haven't you? Still fiddling with this useless bamboo?"
