The Legend of the Condor Heroes: From Being Expelled from Peach Blossom Island

Chapter 231 How to Save Li Mochou

However, regardless of the speculation, no one in later generations has ever questioned whether the Innate Skill was truly as it was.

In those martial arts fanfictions, there are quite a few time travelers who run to Chongyang Palace and easily obtain the Innate Skill without much trouble, such as casually flipping through Taoist scriptures in the Sutra Repository or accidentally tearing up Wang Chongyang's portrait.

These transmigrators must have been exceptionally gifted, possessing an innate energy that was condensed and could not be dispersed within their bodies. They could easily master it and become top experts.

Wu Chengyu even read in a fanfiction that a certain dragon knight, after being punished for his crimes, suddenly repented and then cultivated the Innate Skill, achieving the same effect as Dongfang Bubai. Therefore, he concluded that cultivating the Innate Skill after castration was actually the Sunflower Manual.

That's quite a wild idea. If that's really the case, then wouldn't the fact that Guhua was tricked to death by Wu Chengyu mean that Wang Chongyang faked his death to escape and castrated himself to become a eunuch?
Ugh, just thinking about this gave Wu Chengyu goosebumps all over.

But all of these are just fabrications; the Innate Skill manual that Wu Chengyu currently holds is the real one.

Only Wu Chengyu knew exactly what kind of martial art the Innate Skill was.

However, now is not the time to study the Innate Skill. No matter how profound this skill is, it cannot be understood by simply flipping through it a few times. Wu Chengyu simply stuffed the manual into his pocket.

From the moment he secretly infiltrated the Tomb of the Living Dead, Wu Chengyu's exploration of the tomb has yielded far more than he had anticipated.

Whether it was the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra Sword Technique with its seven killing moves or the Innate Skill, he never dared to even think about it before.

Wu Chengyu silently left the secret room, then painstakingly found the mechanism, closed the door to the secret room again, and then turned the mechanism on the candlestick back to its original position.

In fact, this would inevitably leave flaws, at least most of the dust on the mural would fall off, but Wu Chengyu didn't care.

But these women in the Tomb of the Living Dead don't need lighting when passing through this passage, so they shouldn't be easily spotted. And even if they were, so what?

Given Lin Chaoying's temperament, it's estimated that she would never sympathize with Wang Chongyang. At most, she would smash Wang Chongyang's memorial tablet to pieces to vent her anger. Wu Chengyu has already obtained the biggest benefit.

He walked through the passage again, following the scents of the three women, until he reached the other end of the tomb, which must have been where they lived.

Wu Chengyu quickly found Lin's bedroom. He could easily sense that the temperature inside the stone room was very low, which should be the location of the Cold Jade Bed. The woman had injured her heart meridian during the day because of Wu Chengyu's words, and she was now healing on the Cold Jade Bed.

Wu Chengyu could sense from her breathing that her injuries were better than during the day; her breathing was more stable, and the blood energy in the air had decreased considerably. However, it seemed she would still need to practice her internal energy for a while.

The Jade Bed was inside, but Wu Chengyu didn't choose to go in. It was best to use the Ice Silkworm to cultivate the Gang Hand technique, as the Jade Bed was less effective. Anyway, it wouldn't run away since it was here. Wu Chengyu planned to go to Kunlun Mountain in the future and make other plans if he really couldn't find the Ice Silkworm.

Wu Chengyu then went to another stone chamber. Judging from the smell inside, it should be Granny Sun, who was still an old woman. Judging from her heartbeat and breathing, she was fast asleep. Wu Chengyu was even less likely to go into this chamber.

Upon reaching the door of the third stone chamber, it was indeed Xiao Mochou's room. The little girl was sleeping soundly, occasionally muttering a few words in her sleep.

"You bad person, I'm going to use sparrows to practice my skills... Sparrows are so delicious." Wu Chengyu quietly pushed open the door and went in. The little girl was sleeping on her back, drooling. Wu Chengyu found her more and more adorable.

Wu Chengyu would never let such a lovely little girl go back to her old ways. There's really no need for that middle-aged Taoist nun who died tragically in the love flower bushes, crying out "What is love in this world?" with a face full of resentment before her death.

Li Mochou's greatest tribulation in life was Lu Zhanyuan. He appeared when she was most rebellious and longed for the outside world. He was handsome and good at sweet talk and seducing girls. She immediately fell for him and could never escape his clutches.

Furthermore, she had been brainwashed by her master since childhood, making her quite stubborn and completely devoid of the traditional feudal concept of a virtuous and gentle woman. She always believed that Lu Zhanyuan could only marry her, and she also inherited her master's ruthlessness, ultimately leading to that kind of ending.

The solution is simple: change Lu Zhanyuan. Wu Chengyu decided to send a letter to Lu Zhiyi, asking him to send Lu Zhanyuan to the Qinling rebel base to specifically cultivate the Tiger Warrior Body left by Wu Chengyu.

In fact, Lu Zhanyuan looks a lot like Lu Zhiyi, even more handsome, with a tall and slender figure, fair skin and red lips, and a charming demeanor. After all, he is Lu Zhiyi's son, so he should receive better resources than others.

Therefore, as long as Lu Zhanyuan cultivates the Tiger Warrior Body, his original physique will inevitably undergo a dramatic change. After a few years, when his body matures, even without the double-door body, his robust physique, like a single-door refrigerator, will have nothing to do with his elegant demeanor.

The Tiger Warrior Body also incorporates elements of Iron Shirt, where the body is constantly subjected to external force, resulting in thick, tough skin. In addition, the constant exposure to the Yue Family Army's training methods and the elements naturally prevents the maintenance of fair skin.

In the future, Lu Zhanyuan will inevitably become a dark-skinned, burly man, a growth that can definitely be described as disfiguring.

After observing for three days, it turns out that Xiao Mochou is actually quite a looks-obsessed person despite her young age. Even though she is always sarcastic and like a little chili pepper when she is with Wu Chengyu, she also cries and eats sparrows from time to time.

But during this process, she kept stealing glances at Wu Chengyu, even shaking her head and swaying her body. It was obvious that Wu Chengyu's appearance was now her type, and even if Lu Zhanyuan hadn't changed, he was definitely not as handsome as Wu Chengyu now.

Having grown accustomed to handsome men and with her aesthetic sense solidified, even if fate arranged for Lu Zhanyuan to meet Li Mochou again, she would probably never feel any affection for Lu Zhanyuan again.

Judging from his current appearance, Wu Chengyu has absolute confidence in himself. Having grown accustomed to delicacies, how could he possibly stomach Russian rye bread?

Cultivating the Tiger Warrior Body requires at least ten years, during which time one cannot leave. After ten years, Wu Chengyu will inevitably return to the Qinling rebel base. At that time, he will send Lu Zhanyuan back to Hangzhou and urge him to marry He Yuanjun immediately. With a group of uncles and elders around, he will not dare to have any more tricks up his sleeve.

Of course, even without Lu Zhanyuan, she might have encountered other scumbags. Sometimes life is strange, and people's fates often follow a predetermined path. That has nothing to do with Wu Chengyu; he can't take care of Li Mochou for the rest of her life.

Or perhaps he could win over Li Mochou in the future. Wu Chengyu certainly wouldn't only marry one woman, but he's confident he can suppress Li Mochou.

Wu Chengyu walked to Li Mochou's side, first pressing her acupoints to prevent her from waking up for a short time, and then covering her with a blanket.

Wu Chengyu gained a lot this time, so he wanted to leave something behind.
