Yang Guo travels back in time to become Duan Yu, a different kind of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

After asking all the questions he wanted to ask, Yang Guo released Madam Wang's soul-shifting spell and also released the pressure points on both of them.

"Madam Wang, Miss Wang, I'm sure you two have much to discuss. I'll take my leave now, and see you later!"

Having said that, Yang Guo got up and walked towards the door. Given the complicated relationship between Madam Wang and the Prince of Zhennan, Yang Guo couldn't really do anything to them, but not killing them didn't mean he couldn't destroy their spirit!

Before leaving, Yang Guo whistled a few times to scare away the swarm of intoxicating bees, lest they sting the two people inside the house and cause them serious harm.

To dare to play with bees in front of a descendant of the Ancient Tomb Sect is truly showing off one's limited skills before an expert!

Before Yang Guo could even walk down the stairs, he heard a "smack" from upstairs, and then saw Miss Wang running downstairs crying, covering her face.

As they turned the corner, they ran into Azhu and Abi, who were traveling together. The two women were also taken aback when they saw Wang Yuyan in this state. This was Mantuo Manor, and who would dare to make their young lady cry?

Then they saw Yang Guo leisurely descending from upstairs, and the two women looked at them with questioning expressions.

"It's better for Miss Wang to tell you this herself. Although I know about it, I shouldn't overstep my bounds," Yang Guo paused and said. "Also, it would be best if you stayed with Miss Wang. She was quite traumatized today."

A'Zhu and A'Bi were also clever and perceptive. Although they didn't understand what had happened upstairs, they knew that Yang Guo wouldn't speak without reason, and staying by Wang Yuyan's side was the best choice at this time.

Yang Guo watched the three women's departing figures, shook his head, and walked towards the back gate of Mantuo Manor. There was no point in staying here any longer; if he were to clash with Madam Wang again, Yang Guo didn't think he would have the magnanimity he had today.

Since that's the case, I might as well leave early and see if I can find out where my aunt is in the martial arts world.

For Wang Yuyan, the truth was indeed somewhat cruel. If she had to blame someone, she should blame Madam Wang and Prince Zhennan. She had only made Madam Wang tell the truth.

When passing by the Langhuan Jade Cave, Yang Guo paused briefly and glanced inside. Although he also had the idea of ​​going in to take a look, he still walked away.

Given his relationship with Madam Wang, the other party would definitely not let him in. As for forcibly taking it, then how would he be any different from Kumārajīva?

Although I wouldn't call myself a gentleman, I do know what I should and shouldn't do.

When Yang arrived at the dock behind Mantuo Villa, he was surprised to see Wang Yuyan and the other two women about to board the ship.

It turned out that Wang Yuyan couldn't accept her status as an illegitimate child and only wanted to escape Mantuo Manor, but she didn't know where to go. Just then, Azhu and Abi arrived, and Azhu suggested that they stay at Tingxiang Pavilion, which was closest to Mantuo Manor, for a while.

Firstly, it's a change of environment to change her mood; secondly, she can see her cousin right away in Yanziwu. In Miss Wang's heart, her cousin is her strongest support.

Seeing that Yang Guo was also about to leave Mantuo Manor, A'Zhu decisively invited him to go with her. That big monk Kumārajīva was only chased away, not killed. It would be terrible if he encountered that fierce monk.

With Yang Guo by our side, we need not fear even if we encounter Kumārajīva.

Yang Guo readily agreed. Without A Zhu and A Bi leading the way, it would be quite difficult for Yang Guo to get out of Taihu Lake. Although his relationship with Miss Wang was now rather special, the atmosphere on the boat wasn't too awkward thanks to A Zhu and A Bi's presence.

Seeing that Miss Wang was in low spirits, A'Zhu took the initiative to talk about her young master. Upon hearing the news about Young Master Murong, Wang Yuyan's eyes suddenly lit up again.

Hearing that Young Master Murong had left, Miss Wang asked softly, "Where is my cousin going this time?"

A'Zhu said, "When the young master left, he said he was going to Luoyang to meet some of the Beggars' Sect's best fighters. Brother Deng went with him. Don't worry, young lady. The young master has been practicing the Beggars' Sect's Dog-Beating Staff Technique recently!"

Upon hearing the name "Dog-Beating Stick Technique," Yang Guo's spirits lifted. This was the Beggars' Sect's signature martial art, surpassing even the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms in importance and power. For hundreds of years, whenever the Beggars' Sect faced a crisis, the sect leader would personally take action, often relying on the Dog-Beating Stick Technique to eliminate traitors, kill enemies, and intimidate evil forces.

Wang Yuyan said leisurely, "The Beggars' Sect's Dog-Beating Staff Technique is a closely guarded secret of the Beggars' Sect. Even if you pieced together the manuals from the Water Pavilion and my family's Langhuan Cave, it would only be a few incomplete staff techniques, completely lacking the internal energy cultivation method. How can my cousin possibly learn it?"

Azhu said, "Young master said that since the mental technique of the Dog-Beating Stick Technique was created by a person, why couldn't he think of adding the mental technique to the stick technique? That wouldn't be difficult."

Yang Guo thought to himself, "The Beggars' Sect's Dog-Beating Staff Technique is passed down orally from the sect leader. Unless 'Southern Murong' has the ability to kidnap 'Northern Qiao Feng' and force him to reveal the secret formula, it will be useless even if you gather all the staff techniques together."

Wang Yuyan sighed softly again and said, "Even if he could create it, it probably wouldn't be a matter of ten or eight years. How could it be done overnight? Have you seen my cousin practicing the staff technique? Is there something he's struggling with?"

A'Zhu said, "Young master's staff technique is very fast, flowing smoothly from beginning to end."

Wang Yuyan gasped softly, "Oh no! Is he really that fast?"

Azhu said, "Yes, is there something wrong with it?"

Wang Yuyan said, "Of course not. Although I don't know the inner workings of the Dog-Beating Stick Technique, judging from the techniques, some moves are definitely better as slow as possible, while others require fluctuating speed, with fast and slow sections within each other. That's for sure. My cousin was only focused on speed and got into a fight with a master from the Beggars' Sect. I'm afraid he's in big trouble! Do you have any way to send a message to my cousin?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Guo realized that he had underestimated his adopted sister. Although she hadn't practiced martial arts much, she had a deep understanding of kung fu.

In the Dog-Beating Stick Technique, moves in the "Poke" and "Chop" techniques, such as "Beating Two Dogs" and "Beating the Dog's Head," are indeed better as fast as possible. However, moves in the "Lead" and "Turn" techniques should not be pursued solely for speed.

Miss Wang was able to grasp this level of understanding even after only seeing an incomplete set of moves, which makes her worthy of being called a "martial arts prodigy".

A'Zhu continued, "We don't know where the young master is staying, nor do we know if he has already met with the elders of the Beggars' Sect. Before he left, he said that the Beggars' Sect wrongly accused him of killing their Vice-Chief Ma. He went to Luoyang to clarify this matter, not to fight with the Beggars' Sect members. Otherwise, he and Brother Deng, being heroes, would ultimately be outnumbered. The only concern is that things might not go smoothly, and a disagreement might arise..."

Abi asked, "Miss, isn't it really inappropriate to use the Dog-Beating Stick Technique so quickly?"

Wang Yuyan said, "Of course that's inappropriate. Why didn't you come to see me before you left..."

She tapped her foot lightly as she spoke, sounding both annoyed and concerned, yet her voice remained soft and pleasant. But the thought of her current awkward situation brought a shadow of sadness to Wang Yuyan's face.
