Huang Rong from The Return of the Condor Heroes: Brother Jing, let's get a divorce.

Yang Guo stood in the open space outside the ancient tomb, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. Once this woman went mad, he was truly unstoppable.

He patted his dust-covered Taoist robe and exhaled a long breath. Just now in the stone chamber, he had risked his life to hold onto his principles.

He was secretly grumbling to himself. This kind of blessing of having multiple wives was something most people couldn't handle.

Huang Rong, Xiaolongnu, and Li Mochou—these three women are all incredibly beautiful.

Even if my body were made of iron, it couldn't withstand days of hard work.

These past few days he's felt soreness in his lower back and his walking has been a bit unsteady.

If word got out, how could he, the dignified leader of the Quanzhen Sect, be bedridden by three women? He couldn't possibly lose face. A man's dignity must never be lost.

He stroked his chin, his mind racing. This couldn't go on. If things continued like this, and he couldn't pay his dues, Huang Rong and Xiaolongnu would inevitably become suspicious.

If they discover that I'm all bark and no bite, my reputation as a seasoned pro will be completely ruined. I need to find a way to solve this physical deficiency problem once and for all.

The Quanzhen School is the foremost Taoist sect in the world. Taoism emphasizes the harmony of Yin and Yang, and the art of dual cultivation must be recorded in Taoist classics. The scripture pavilion in Chongyang Palace definitely contains secret manuals on dual cultivation.

Previously, as a fourth-generation disciple, I couldn't even find the door to the Sutra Repository, let alone search for such a hidden cultivation technique.

But things are different now. He won the Tongtian Arena and seized the position of sect leader. The entire Quanzhen Sect is his. Those old Taoist priests now don't even dare to breathe loudly in his presence.

Tomorrow he will openly and legitimately enter the library to search. As long as he finds the secret manual for dual cultivation and transforms the yin energy of these three women into his own pure yang energy, he can be a groom every night and will no longer need to feign illness to make excuses.

Yang Guo felt much more at ease after finalizing his plan to find the secret manual. But then he realized something was amiss. In the main stone chamber of the ancient tomb, he had only seen Xiaolongnu. Li Mochou was nowhere to be seen.

Where did technician Li go?

Yang Guo frowned. Li Mochou had been staying in the Ancient Tomb all this time and hadn't gone out at all.

Her current situation is extremely dangerous. Her adoptive father, Ouyang Feng, used the Nine Yin Manual (practiced in reverse) to strike her vital points, sealing her internal energy completely.

The method of releasing the acupoints is extremely unorthodox; only Ouyang Feng in the entire world knows how to do it.

Li Mochou can't use any internal energy at all now, and can't even beat an ordinary henchman in the martial arts world.

She has made countless enemies, and many people in the martial arts world want to skin her alive.

Although Zhongnan Mountain is the territory of the Quanzhen Sect, it is still difficult to guarantee that outsiders will not infiltrate.

If she were to encounter a lecherous bandit, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Although Li Mochou had a fiery temper and a sharp tongue, she possessed an exceptional figure. Her voluptuous curves would make any man unable to resist her.

Yang Guo felt a surge of anxiety.

Li Mochou was already his woman. Although she was forced into this relationship, she was truly devoted to him.

When Xiaolongnu was punishing him, only Li Mochou was willing to stand up for him.

One must never let anyone else touch one's woman.

If something really goes wrong, wouldn't he be stuck with this cuckoldry for good? Yang Guo would never allow such a thing to happen.

Yang Guo paced back and forth in the open space, carefully considering where Li Mochou might have gone. Having lost her martial arts skills, she dared not go far.

There aren't many places to hide near the ancient tomb. She's extremely proud and would never go to the territory of the Quanzhen Sect to make a fool of herself.

After much thought, Yang Guo came up with an extremely secluded location.

That was an abandoned cave in the back mountain. It was in this cave that her adoptive father, Ouyang Feng, forced Li Mochou to have a relationship with him.

It was in that cave that he and Li Mochou first consummated their relationship.

That was where Li Mochou lost her innocence, and also the beginning of her abandoning her status as the Red Serpent Fairy. When she was feeling troubled, she was very likely to go there to find peace and quiet.

With that thought in mind, Yang Guo didn't delay any longer. He gathered the Nine Yin True Qi in his dantian, exerted force with his feet, and transformed into a blur, rushing straight towards the cave.

The mountain path was rugged and overgrown with weeds. Yang Guo moved swiftly through the woods. He was currently practicing a wide variety of light-body techniques, encompassing the strengths of various schools.

The most agile is the lightness skill of the Ancient Tomb Sect. This skill emphasizes nimble and unpredictable movements. When traversing through the forest, he can change direction simply by lightly touching the leaves with his toes.

This light-foot technique is extremely suitable for maneuvering in confined spaces and dodging close-range attacks from enemies.

However, he found that this light-body skill was somewhat ineffective for long-distance raids.

The martial arts of the Ancient Tomb Sect emphasize the elimination of emotions and desires, and the way of cultivating qi is too gradual, lacking explosive power. Using it for travel consumes a great deal of physical strength, and one's legs will feel sore after running only a short distance.

The most reliable is the Golden Goose Skill of the Quanzhen Sect. This is the orthodox lightness skill mental cultivation method of the Xuanmen (Taoist school).

Yang Guo's feet touched the ground firmly, and his inner energy surged from his dantian, propelling him several meters into the air. The unique feature of this lightness skill lies in its ability to borrow momentum while suspended in mid-air.

Without needing to step on any physical object, one can forcibly elevate their body in mid-air simply by circulating internal energy.

The Golden Goose Technique is most useful when encountering cliffs, steep walls, or deep courtyards. However, its drawback is also obvious: it is not fast enough.

Its ascent is extremely uniform, making it an easy target for the enemy.

The most bizarre thing is the spiral nine shadows on the Nine Yin Manual.

This is an exceptional combat technique. Yang Guo tried to activate this lightness skill while running.

His pure Yang energy erupted suddenly, leaving a blur in his wake as his true form was already three zhang away. This lightness skill was extremely domineering, its speed reaching its limit, capable of causing visual illusions.

It's an amazing skill for close combat and confusing enemies. However, this lightness skill is straightforward and lacks variation.

Moreover, it consumes a great deal of internal energy. Each burst requires mobilizing a large amount of true energy, making it impossible to use for long-distance travel.

The most tricky one is the snake-like movement and the fox-like acrobatic flip. This also comes from the Nine Yin Manual.

This movement technique is specifically designed for low-level attacks. When encountering a horizontal branch overhead, Yang Guo doesn't need to slow down; he simply bends over, his waist collapsing, and he slides across the ground.

This movement technique is most practical for dodging hidden weapons and sword strikes, allowing one to avoid a fatal blow from an extremely unbelievable angle.

But his movements were truly unseemly. Scrambling around in the woods in broad daylight like that made him look like a country bumpkin. He was, after all, the leader of the Quanzhen Sect; if his disciples saw him like this, he would lose all his authority.

As Yang Guo ran, his mind raced.

He now possesses the pure internal energy honed from sixteen years of practicing the Nine Yin Manual. His One-Finger Divine Skill has also broken through the seventh rank, reaching the sixth rank. The true energy within his body is extremely abundant and circulates without any hindrance.

A bold idea popped into his mind. Since each of these four light-body techniques has its own strengths and weaknesses, could they combine their strengths and compensate for their weaknesses to create a completely new light-body technique of their own?

He continued thinking along these lines. He would take the agility and versatility of the ancient tomb's light-body technique and use it to control direction.

He borrows the aerial ability of the Golden Goose Skill to overcome obstacles. He incorporates the explosive speed of the Nine Shadows Spiral to enhance his ultimate sprint. He adds the unpredictable angles of the Serpent's Leap to deal with unexpected situations.

Once these four techniques for generating power and the pathways for circulating true qi are mastered, this new light-body skill will be flawless.

Yang Guo thought it over and it seemed more and more feasible. He tried to guide his inner energy through his meridians. He first sank his inner energy into the Yongquan acupoint, simulating the explosion of the Nine Spiral Shadows, and his figure suddenly shot out.

Then, while in mid-air, he activated the Golden Goose Skill, forcibly rising ten feet into the air. Just before landing, he used the Ancient Tomb Sect's Qi-raising method, lightly touching the grass with his toes to change direction.

Finally, using the waist to exert force, mimicking the flexibility of a snake or a fox, they weave through the gap between two large trees.

After completing the entire set of movements, Yang Guo felt incredibly smooth and exhilarated. His speed was twice as fast as before, and his internal energy consumption was greatly reduced.

Yang Guo was overjoyed. He stopped on a thick tree trunk, his chest heaving. He knew he had reached the threshold of becoming a master of lightness skill.

He was absolutely confident that he could perfect this lightness skill.

Looking across the entire world, apart from those extraordinary old monsters like the Eastern Heretic, Western Poison, Southern Emperor, and Northern Beggar, in terms of lightness skill and movement technique, absolutely no one can be faster than me.

The Seven Masters of Quanzhen's Big Dipper Formation is nothing more than a clumsy iron tortoise in the face of this lightness skill. One can enter and exit at will. Someone like Yin Zhiping wouldn't even be able to touch a hem of his clothes.

His mind was now filled with thoughts of meridian pathways and power generation techniques. He even considered jumping down from the tree, finding a flat, clean stone slab to sit on, closing his eyes, and thoroughly strategizing.

If he were given just half a day, he could completely master this lightness skill. The temptation was simply too great.

For a martial arts practitioner, the sense of accomplishment in creating a top-notch martial art is no less than that of conquering a stunningly beautiful woman.

Yang Guo crossed his right leg, preparing to sit in meditation on the tree trunk.

But as soon as he closed his eyes, Li Mochou's charming face appeared in his mind.

Yang Guo suddenly opened his eyes and slapped his thigh. He had almost ruined something important. Creating martial arts techniques could be done anytime.

But the safety of Technician Li was of utmost urgency. That woman had no martial arts skills whatsoever, and if she were to encounter danger at this critical juncture, he would live with guilt for the rest of his life.

What's more, this is his own woman. If someone else were to take advantage of her, it would be worse than death for him.

He gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressing the martial arts inspiration surging in his mind, and banished all those chaotic meridian pathways from his thoughts.

"Master Li, please don't get hurt. Be a good boy and wait for me in the cave," Yang Guo silently prayed.

He pushed the internal energy of the Nine Yin Manual to its limit, no longer caring about the integration of lightness skills, and only focused on increasing his speed to the maximum.

Then, his figure transformed into a wisp of green smoke, leaping down from the tree trunk and heading straight for the hidden cave on the back mountain. A gust of wind swept through the forest, swirling up a flurry of fallen leaves.
