Douluo Continent: I, the world's greatest immortal master, have taken Ning Rongrong as my disci

Chapter 377 Library Peach Blossom Spring Patriarch Picture
"Have you thought it through? You really don't want treatment?"

"That's a pity. With your talent, you could have at least reached the Soul Douluo level by clearing your meridians."

"If it's not cleared, the best you can achieve is the Soul King realm."

"Let's just give up on treatment."

Seeing Tang Ya turn pale with fright, Su Ran calmly put the pliers back in.

Seeing that the indifferent young man was ignoring her again, Tang Ya's mind calmed down, and she even felt a little eager to try again:
"Director Tao, who are you trying to scare to death?"

"Director, can you open up meridians with red-hot iron tongs? Won't it just burn the meridians?"

Huo Yuhao was also startled. After regaining his senses, he couldn't help but ask Su Ran.

Even Tang Wutong's lips twitched; she couldn't even imagine what it would look like if those red-hot iron pincers were actually pressed against Tang Ya's body.

Xiao Xiao fearfully grabbed Tang Wutong's sleeve, hiding behind her, and glanced at Su Ran with some trepidation:
Oh dear, does the library director that Senior Tang Ya mentioned have bipolar disorder? He threatens to hit people with fire tongs all the time, that's terrifying.

Unexpectedly, under the starlight, the young man remained calm and composed, his face expressionless.
"Water turns to ice when it is cold, blood congeals into knots, qi gathers to form locks, when they combine they become yang, when they disperse they become yin."

"Fire tongs are yang, which can dispel yin locks."

Su Ran's words immediately stunned the freshmen.

Xiao Xiao tugged at Tang Wutong's arm and asked softly:

"Wu Tong, what does Master Tao mean by that?"

Tang Wutong shook her head: "I don't quite understand, but it seems to make some sense."

Why does this librarian talk so much like his father? He just spouts all sorts of mysterious and esoteric phrases.

But my father is a high priest!
How could this library director possibly compare to my father?

Huo Yuhao scratched his head:
"So you mean, Director, you don't want to hurt Teacher Xiaoya, but you really want to help Teacher Xiaoya get better, right?"

"Teacher Xiaoya, if you're scared, let me try first."

"Director, is that alright?"

Huo Yuhao asked Su Ran.

Su Ran glanced at him: "Have you thought this through?"

Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth, rolled up his sleeves, and nodded, "Okay!"

"it is good."

Wow~
Su Ran took the red-hot iron tongs out of the charcoal brazier, and the tongs brought out a string of bright sparks that "crackled" and fell to the ground.

This time, Su Ran did not hesitate in her actions.

The iron pliers in his hand coiled around Huo Yuhao's arm like a fiery serpent.

However, it did not harm him in the slightest. Only sparks bloomed at his slightly blocked meridians, emitting grayish-white heat.

In a short while, Huo Yuhao rubbed his arm, which felt a little hot, but the purple veins on it quickly faded, and the faint soul power in his body also flowed smoothly.

In an instant, Huo Yuhao's face lit up with joy:

"All right!"

"The turbid air that I couldn't expel with my Xuan Tian Gong technique is now cleared!"

"Teacher Xiaoya, what Director Tao said is true. I can feel my blood boiling and my soul power flowing very smoothly!"

Huo Yuhao looked at Su Ran with admiration.

Director Tao is amazing!

He solved his problem with a red-hot pair of iron tongs!

Tang Ya approached and carefully examined Huo Yuhao's arm, confirming that there was nothing seriously wrong and that his meridians were indeed clear.

The way he looked at Su Ran immediately changed:

"Director Tao, you...you actually know how to unblock meridians, and you only used one pair of iron pliers?"

Tang Ya found it hard to believe; only those who practice martial arts would understand how difficult it was!

First, this person must be very familiar with the distribution of meridians in the human body.

Secondly, this person's skill level was extremely high, able to instantly grasp the cultivation status of a Soul Master and the operation of the Mysterious Heaven Technique. Feeling the slightly worshipful gazes of the crowd, Su Ran was already used to it. In the firelight, his figure gradually straightened, and an aura of unparalleled elegance unconsciously emanated from him, causing Tang Wutong, Tang Ya, and Xiao Xiao to rub their eyes, thinking it was their imagination.

"It wasn't a troublesome matter to begin with."

“Cultivation involves both opening and closing, and there must be both advancement and retreat. However, the cultivation methods you have learned are too incomplete. You only focus on absorbing the essence of the sun and moon and circulating your soul power, but you don’t care about expelling impurities. In the end, the higher your soul power, the more impurities are in your meridians, and the final result can only be that your meridians are blocked.”

Su Ran recounted in detail the drawbacks of Tang Ya and Huo Yuhao's cultivation methods.

Tang Ya understood this time.

The girl was a little embarrassed, so she rolled up her sleeve, revealing her slender, jade-like wrist:
"Director...Director, thank you for your help~"

The veins on the girl's arm were clearly visible, like winding, dark rivers. Several of them were noticeably raised and bluish-purple, indicating blockages in the veins.

"Aren't you afraid now?"

"I'm not afraid anymore, please, Director Momo, give it your all!"

"Hey, I only ate a few of your fish, and you expect me to solve your lifelong cultivation problems? Wouldn't that be a bit unfair to me?"

"Besides, I've already used the clamps twice..."

"Hey, hey, hey, you're not going to back out of treating me, are you?"

Upon hearing Su Ran's hint of retreat, Tang Ya immediately became anxious.

"I spent several gold soul coins to buy these fish, they were top-quality stuff!"

"Director~ Director Tao~ Xiaoya apologizes to you. Xiaoya looked down on you just now because she had no taste. Please save Xiaoya~"

Tang Ya grabbed Su Ran's arm and shook it, proving that a strong woman can bend and stretch, and directly gave in to Su Ran.

“Hey, I’ve got it, Director Tao~ I saw your library was recruiting apprentices when I came over just now.”

"How about this: you help me cure my meridian problems, and Xiaoya will be willing to work as an apprentice at the library for free, okay?"

Tang Ya suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembering the latest notice posted in the library, and immediately came up with a plan.

"Well, that's good."

"However, I don't just hire anyone to be my library apprentice."

"One must be of good character and hardworking."

Su Ran calmly stated the conditions.

Tang Ya immediately puffed out her small, voluptuous breasts: "I can do it! I'm super capable!"

"I...I'm willing to do it too," Huo Yuhao said, raising his hand.

"Um……"

Su Ran yawned lazily, then nodded and said to them:
"Alright, you two come with me."

After saying that, Su Ran walked towards the library.

Tang Ya and Huo Yuhao quickly followed.

After entering the library, we took the soul-guided elevator all the way to the top floor.

Only then did I realize that in the main hall on the top floor, there was a peach blossom and a portrait enshrined.

The painting depicts a vast peach blossom forest, with a lifelike figure within it, as if the person is moving within the painting.

This man was dressed in white robes with peach patterns, and he had an elegant demeanor. Even through the paper, one could feel his otherworldly aura, which made Tang Ya and Huo Yuhao unable to look away.

It wasn't until the unremarkable librarian, standing to the side of the painting, spoke calmly that they were jolted awake:

"Our library was established by Taohualin and is also a channel for Taoyuan to do some things for the mainland to cultivate talents. That's why we opened the books to the world for learning and reading."

"Therefore, to become an apprentice in the library, one must obtain the approval of the Peach Blossom Master and take the Peach Blossom Master as one's first teacher. One may not follow any other master."

"This painting is a portrait of the ancestor that the God of Music drew at Taoyuan Academy, based on the image of the ancestor of Taoyuan."

"If you are interested in becoming apprentices at the library, you must first sincerely pay homage to the founder and obtain his approval."
