Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

Mei Hua Thirteen sheathed her short sword and silently said to herself.

"Hmm, it's about time you went out and made your way in the world. Staying in Plum Blossom Manor all the time won't lead to much success."

Lin Yu stretched and spoke leisurely in Mei Hua Shisan's mind.

He spent two whole years teaching Mei Hua Thirteen, which was quite a boring thing for him.

However, the results were still quite good. Ever since Plum Blossom Hero began cultivating the Heavenly Demon Sword, everything has been progressing steadily according to Lin Yu's plan.

As he continued to cultivate, the hatred and passion hidden within the Heavenly Demon Sword also began to influence Plum Blossom Hero.

This influence is subtle and gradual, and it will not manifest in sword techniques or other aspects.

Under Lin Yu's control, Plum Blossom Swordsman felt nothing, treating it only as a unique sword technique.

Little did he know that the seeds of hatred had already begun to take root and sprout in his heart.

It was precisely because of him that Mei Hua Thirteen's cultivation speed increased considerably.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 190 is known to all and widely circulated.

Otherwise, even with her talent, she couldn't have cultivated so quickly on her own.

With her current strength, if Mei Hua Thirteen were to encounter the three guys she met at the teahouse again, she could win in a one-on-one fight and escape successfully even against three opponents.

This level of strength is already enough for her.

Even if things go wrong, Lin Yu is still here.

If this departure successfully spreads the Heavenly Demon Sword, then gaining strength will be a piece of cake.

What do I need to prepare?

'Understand this world.'

Lin Yu smiled and said to Mei Hua Thirteen.

As the daughter of the Plum Blossom Hero, although she couldn't enjoy much family affection in this family, there were still some other advantages.

For example, inquiring about the various factions involved.

Although the Plum Blossom Hero usually disliked his daughters, he always had a way, especially after offering up the Heavenly Demon Sword.

"You're going out to make your way in the world?"

The Plum Blossom Hero looked at Plum Blossom Thirteen in front of him and asked coldly.

"Yes."

Mei Hua Thirteen nodded. "Before we set off, I would like to inquire about the situation of various parties in Xuanwu Kingdom."

Mei Hua Thirteen, who had lived in Plum Blossom Manor for most of her life and had never left, didn't find this request particularly outrageous.

Looking at this daughter who was somewhat unfamiliar to him, the Plum Blossom Hero remained silent for a moment.

"There's a map in the study; just take it with you."

Having said that, the Plum Blossom Hero did not intend to say anything more and turned to leave.

They stopped after taking only two steps.

"The Heavenly Demon Sword must not be passed on to outsiders."

Mei Hua Thirteen nodded silently and walked towards the study without saying anything more.

'This guy is really cold-hearted.'

Lin Yu, who witnessed this scene, was amazed.

It's no wonder that Mei Hua Thirteen harbors resentment towards him; having such a father is truly difficult to predict.

He didn't offer a single word of concern; his final instruction was simply to prevent the sword technique from being passed on to outsiders.

It's truly disheartening.

No wonder when I read the original novel, Plum Blossom Eleven even went so far as to assassinate her only son.

Upon entering the study, Mei Hua Thirteen found a map.

This map shows the major and minor cities of the Xuanwu Kingdom, as well as the distribution of various forces.

Mei Hua Thirteen didn't say anything, but just looked at it carefully, then folded it up and put it into her packed bag.

Everything is ready.

Mei Hua Thirteen said to Lin Yu.

"Then let's go."

'Where is our first stop?'

'It's an assassin organization, of course.'

Lin Yu smiled and pointed out the direction for Mei Hua Thirteen.

Leaving Plum Blossom Manor again, Plum Blossom Thirteen's feelings this time were quite different from the last time.

Last time, my mother was by my side. Rather than feeling reluctant to leave, it was more about my anticipation and longing for the future.

She would be much happier with her mother than living in this cold, indifferent mountain village.

It's just a pity.

In fact, even her mother didn't like her.

Or perhaps it was a dislike of martial artists that led her to dislike them as well.

Now that she's leaving again, Mei Hua Thirteen no longer feels any emotional turmoil; all she feels is the thought of revenge.

One day, she will come back again and stand in front of that guy once more.

After defeating him fair and square, I'll make him realize that women can also reach the pinnacle of swordsmanship!

We continued along the mountain road.

The teahouse at the foot of the mountain is gone, all traces of the battle have been erased, and the bodies have long since disappeared.

It's as if the experience back then was just an illusion.

Mei Hua Thirteen, carrying a bundle, arrived at the small town she had once lived in.

They found a carriage shop, paid the fare, and boarded a rickety carriage to travel to the Xuanwu Kingdom.

There are more prosperous towns there, as well as assassin organizations hiding in the shadows.

Without modern tools, the journey would have been extremely long and arduous.

Although Lin Yu really wanted to send Mei Hua Thirteen to a modern society like Chicken Island right now, so that he could enjoy the long-lost modern life.

But the most urgent task at hand is to restore our strength.

Following the convoy, it took about half a month, swaying and rocking.

The two finally arrived in the kingdom of Xuanwu.

Upon arriving in the capital, Mei Hua Thirteen looked at the bustling streets and the tall, prosperous buildings, and felt somewhat lost and helpless.

Having never seen so many people before, she was momentarily at a loss for what to do.

'Don't just stand there, go find a letter shop first.'

Lin Yu reminded her, which brought Mei Hua Thirteen back to her senses. She gave a muffled "oh" and blended into the crowd.

Through Mei Hua Thirteen's perspective, Lin Yu observed the surrounding environment and the many martial artists while instructing Mei Hua Thirteen.

"Keep an eye on the guy to your left; he's practicing external martial arts."

'See that beggar on the street? Pay attention to his palms.'

Mei Hua Thirteen listened silently to Lin Yu's words, learning how to observe people coming and going and pay attention to details.

In about ten minutes, Mei Hua Thirteen arrived at a bookstore and spent some money to have many copies of the secret manual she had printed.

Then, carrying the secret manuals of the Heavenly Demon Sword, Mei Hua Thirteen found an inn to stay in.

As night fell, Plum Blossom Thirteen strolled out the door.

During the day, I took a walk around the city and got a general understanding of the surrounding environment.

For example, some famous security escort agencies, or places like the Tianlong Gang.

Under the cover of night, Plum Blossom Thirteen moved nimbly, silently dropping the printed manuals into these places as she passed by.

If it's inconvenient to have someone guarding it, then pretend to drop it by the door unintentionally.

No one noticed it in the dead of night.

In the dead of night, Mei Hua Thirteen ran around and threw away all the dozen or so secret manuals that had been printed during the day.

Only then did they return to the inn.

'Is that all?'

Back in her room, Mei Hua Thirteen didn't understand why she had to do that.
