Master rarely speaks. Mingyan has been living on the Immortal Island for some time now, but Master never chats with him. However, he does say a few words in front of the Queen Mother of the West, and he is more lively than usual.

The Queen Mother of the West smiled without saying a word. Yue Qingying, Huang Feiyan, Ming Yan, and Ning Feixuan looked at each other and said in unison, "Please continue your conversation, elders. We'll head out now."

However, if these two start saying bad things about each other, it might not matter to them, but if these younger generation hears it... they'll likely face an undeserved disaster sooner or later. It's better to slip away quickly.

After seeing that Yue Wuxia and west Wangmu Ning Mengru had agreed, the four of them left the mansion together and went outside.

It was already late autumn, but the surrounding flowers and plants were lush and green, just like the springtime of revival, and you couldn't tell that this was autumn when life was withering away.

"I never expected that we would meet again so soon after we parted ways." Ning Feixuan sighed. She glanced at Ming Yan. Although she had intended to keep her distance from him, she never thought that the two of them would meet again for various reasons.

Ning Feixuan was somewhat wary of Ming Yan, not so much of his strength, but rather of the fact that this guy seemed to have a knack for dealing with women...

That's why she wanted to take the initiative to distance herself from this person, but unexpectedly, the two met three times in a short period of time... Even though the other party never tried to talk to her, she still did not let her guard down.

Both Huang Feiyan and Yue Qingying knew that Mingyan had a bit of a crush on Ning Feixuan. Huang Feiyan blinked her beautiful eyes but didn't say anything, while Yue Qingying smiled and said, "This shows that you two are quite destined for each other."

Ning Feixuan smiled, "Perhaps."

When Mingyan heard his senior sister speak up for him, he pursed his lips. He was rather slow-witted and lacked talent in this area. He didn't know how to start a conversation with Ning Feixuan to pursue her, and he felt a little anxious.

Oh dear... looks like I'll have to train with my senior sister again...

Yue Qingying glanced at Ming Yan and saw his strange expression. She found it amusing. This junior brother was too stupid. She had thought he was pretending before, that he was actually very good at dealing with women, but now it seemed that he was indeed a simple-minded child... who had no idea how to pursue women.

But it's okay, she can teach him.

As someone in the know and Ning Feixuan's best friend, Huang Feiyan felt a strange unease watching this scene... All three of them were her friends, and Mingyan liked Ning Feixuan, while Qingying was speaking up for Mingyan. She... she had nothing to say.

Moreover, thinking about that incident made Huang Feiyan feel even more confused. Oh dear, what kind of mess is this...?

"Feiyan, I heard Ning Zetian is here too?" Ning Feixuan asked Huang Feiyan.

Huang Feiyan nodded. "Since the Jade Balance Holy Land has been invited, Ning Zetian, as the Jade Balance Holy Son, will naturally come... What are your thoughts?"

Ning Feixuan pondered for a moment, her face showing no hatred. Her expression remained calm as she said, "Now is not the time."

"Just let me know if you need any help," Huang Feiyan said. Huang Feiyan and Ning Feixuan had an excellent relationship. When Ning Feixuan was homeless, a cultivator from the Huang family took pity on her and took her in. The two became friends from then on, and later became best friends.

Huang Feiyan wasn't worried about getting into trouble. The Huang family wasn't afraid of trouble. They had always acted in a domineering style, but because of their strong strength and background, no one dared to say anything.

Mingyan's eyes flickered slightly. He suspected Huang Feiyan hadn't elaborated, but it was likely about the murder of his parents... He vividly remembered Ning Feixuan subduing the killer and allowing him to personally exact revenge. He knew very well that only by personally killing the enemy could he quell the hatred in his heart and bring peace to the departed...

But Ning Zetian also seems to be a genius with a special physique... According to his master, he seems to have the Dao Integration Physique. Even Ning Feixuan would have difficulty defeating him now...

Fei Yan once said that Ning Feixuan was focused on cultivation, and presumably she had always kept this matter in mind, using it to urge herself to grow...

This might be the key to my entry point.

There is no such thing as repaying a debt of gratitude, and Mingyan has been looking for something he can do for Ning Feixuan. Now it seems that he has found a goal.

Well, but no matter what, if you want to repay a debt of gratitude, you must have the ability to do so.

Chapter Seventy-Two: Born to Face Calamity

Although Ning Feixuan was somewhat reluctant to get close to Ming Yan, feeling deep down that it wouldn't be a good thing and might lead to many unpleasant experiences, it now seemed highly unlikely, because her master and his master had once been quite close friends...

That means that, as the younger generation, they will likely have uncontrollable and frequent contact.

The younger generation had no idea what Yue Wuxia and Ning Mengru talked about. After a while, Yue Wuxia came out, glanced at them, and then disappeared from their sight.

Inside the mansion, Ning Mengru's gentle voice rang out, "Yan'er, come in and let me see you."

Hearing Ning Mengru call out to Ming Yan alone, everyone was quite surprised. Ming Yan himself was even more puzzled, but since she was his master's friend and considered his elder, he naturally couldn't refuse to give her face.

So Mingyan took the initiative to enter the mansion.

Unlike Yue Wuxia, Ning Mengru was not accustomed to hiding herself in the mist. She sat cross-legged in the center of the room, her body tinged with a faint divine aura, appearing sacred and inviolable. The lotus flower between her brows shone brightly. Although her face was gentle and dignified, Ming Yan always felt that she possessed a subtle charm.

"Aunt Ning..."

"Come closer, why are you standing so far away?" Ning Mengru looked at Ming Yan with a half-smile, seeing that he had already stood quite far away after entering.

Mingyan had no choice but to move closer.

"Come closer, stand in front of me." Ning Mengru sighed softly when she saw that Ming Yan had only moved a little closer, and then gave Ming Yan a standard.

Mingyan approached somewhat reluctantly.

"Are you afraid of me?" Ning Mengru asked, a hint of doubt on her pretty face as she saw Ming Yan's reaction.

He was indeed a little scared... but not of Ning Mengru herself, but of her divine face. Getting close to her felt like being bewitched. Mingyan quickly recalled his master's beautiful face, barely managing to suppress the flutter in his heart...

Could this be considered a form of fighting poison with poison?

However, the master's poison was stronger, and it was colorless and odorless. It was deeply rooted in the brain, waiting for an opportunity to erupt, while Ning Mengru's poison was triggered immediately.

Although Ning Mengru's poison seemed to be stronger, since it was triggered immediately and caused immediate illness, Mingyan gradually managed to control himself when he thought of his master.

If Ning Mengru is poison, then his master is the antidote. However, this antidote is itself a potent poison, and he... fears he won't be able to control his greed for his master in the future...

Mingyan stood before Ning Mengru, so close that the faint floral scent emanating from her wafted into his nostrils, quite addictive... This friend of his master, though appearing extremely pure and gentle, was surprisingly easy to become addicted to...

A woman like that, if she were willing to lower herself and seduce anyone... few could resist her charm...

Ning Mengru reached out and gently touched Ming Yan's brow. Ming Yan quickly felt a gentle spiritual energy flow into his body, circulating along the naturally formed spiritual meridians within him.

She was probing him... Mingyan quickly understood, but he did not resist. Since it was only after his master had spoken with her that she suddenly decided to do it, it might have been his master's intention. It was unlikely that she would harm him. In other words, even if she wanted to harm him, he had no ability to resist. What was her cultivation level, and what was his?

Not long after, Ning Mengru withdrew her hand, her beautiful eyes looking deeply at Ming Yan, "As expected, you are born with a spiritual vein... Your Qi Sea capacity also far exceeds that of other cultivators of the same level. It seems that Wuxia was right."

"Aunt Ning...?" Ming Yan was unaware that his Qi Sea capacity far exceeded that of other cultivators of the same level, because he did not know the Qi Sea capacity of others, so he could not make a comparison.

However, he did feel that each time he used the spiritual energy in his spiritual sea, he only used a little bit each time, which was basically unable to shake the spiritual sea. Only when he practiced the formation did he consume a considerable amount of spiritual energy, but compared to the entire spiritual sea, it was only a slight decrease.

“Hmm.” Ning Mengru nodded gently. “Your master told me that you have the Human King Physique. I know quite a bit about the Human King Physique, which is how I confirmed it. The Human King Physique has many wonderful aspects, but it has always been mysterious in history and has not left many records. However, there was once a Human King Physique in Yaochi that protected Yaochi for nine thousand years, so Yaochi knows quite a bit about the Human King Physique.”

Upon hearing this, Mingyan immediately became curious. "Could you please talk to Aunt Ning about it? I don't really know much about my own constitution."

“Of course.” Ning Mengru smiled gently. “The Human King Body is just as its name suggests. Once it is fully developed, one becomes a top-tier Human King. At the peak of the Human King level, one is even qualified to fight against an Extreme Dao Emperor. The Human King Body is actually quite easy to recognize, but there is very little information about it in history. First of all, the spiritual veins are naturally formed. The spiritual veins of the Human King Body do not need to be cultivated by oneself, and the spiritual veins that are naturally formed are very easy to cultivate. If I am not mistaken, you were already able to enter the Qi Sea when you were in the Taixi Realm, right?”

Upon hearing this, Mingyan blinked and nodded, "That's true..."

"This is also the peculiarity of the Human King Realm. Furthermore, according to rumors, the Yin and Yang acupoints of the Human King Body are completely different from those of ordinary people, belonging to another system... However, the Human King Body of Yaochi did not pass on any cultivation techniques, so I am powerless to help in this regard..."

The Yin and Yang torsos of the Human King's body are different from those of ordinary people?! Ming Yan suddenly remembered the power of the sun and moon recorded in the "Sun and Moon Scripture"... Could it be referring to this?

"The physique of the Human King Body far surpasses that of other cultivators of the same level. It can almost be called the best among body cultivators. It is incredibly powerful and no less than any Emperor-level Immortal Gold in the world."

"Their blood carries a strong life force and a powerful yin-yang energy, making it a precious medicine in itself. Drinking the blood of a Human King can heal injuries; their self-healing ability is incredibly powerful, comparable to the Phoenix Blood of the Huang Clan..."

"Their incredibly strong physique, vast sea of ​​spiritual energy, and unique Yin and Yang abodes allow them to create spiritual energy much faster, coupled with their terrifying self-healing abilities... This physique is practically made for battle; their appearance often signifies something significant..."

Ning Mengru looked at Ming Yan with her beautiful eyes, "If I'm not mistaken, as far as Yaochi knows, there have been three instances of the Human King Body in history. Of course, this is only what we know, not all of them, but the appearance of the Human King Body has one thing in common: they were all born to meet a calamity. The appearance of the Human King Body means that it won't be long before... a dark turmoil will arrive..."

When Ning Feixuan first arrived at the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Holy Land, Ming Yan had already made this conjecture.

Now it seems that's really the case... Mingyan was silent for a while before asking, "If it's confirmed that I have the Human King Physique, then it means... the Dark Turmoil is really coming?"

“Feixuan has been to the Fenglingyueying Holy Land and should have mentioned the arrival of Empress Qingzi at Yaochi. When the Empress arrived, she told me that a great calamity was coming and asked me to gather everyone. She would also personally come to Yaochi to announce this matter... So, it should be settled.” Ning Mengru nodded.

"But this world is quite different. Even during the Dark Ages and upheavals of the past, so many special physiques did not emerge. The Heavenly Dao has its own laws. If an emperor is on the throne, the chance of special physiques emerging is extremely low. Generally, special physiques will only emerge gradually after the emperor has fallen... This time, the situation is quite strange... But overall, it is a good thing. A large number of special physiques also means that we are more confident in facing those invaders from other realms. With Empress Qingzi on the throne, and with your existence as the Human King Physique, and so many special physiques, perhaps our losses this time will be minimized."

Mingyan nodded, "Thank you, Aunt Ning, for clearing up my doubts."

"No need to be so polite. You are Wuxia's disciple, so you are my junior." Ning Mengru smiled gently. "Since you are a Human King Physique, when you arrive at Yaochi during the Peach Banquet, I will take you to visit the former residence of that Human King Physique senior. Perhaps you will gain something from being a fellow Human King Physique."

"Thank you very much." Mingyan thought to himself, he still needed to break through to Yangling before that, otherwise, his master wouldn't even let him leave the house...

"You have feelings for Fei Xuanxin?" Ning Mengru suddenly asked.

Mingyan was taken aback by the sudden question, then blinked, "This..."

"It's nothing. This is what your master told me. She means to encourage you to communicate more with Feixuan. Although Feixuan is the Holy Maiden of Yaochi, she can still marry out. However, everything depends on her personal wishes. Do you understand what I mean?"

"What did Master say? How did Master know? Oh, Master must have overheard again..." Mingyan nodded, "I understand."

Chapter 73 Why are you surrounded by so many beautiful women?

However, on the other hand, his master even went to the Queen Mother of the West to discuss these matters on his behalf... Although his master eavesdropped, he did indeed help and support him in private...

Mingyan was deeply moved. Even without seeing his master's devilishly handsome face, he was filled with filial piety... His master was so good to him, and he would definitely repay his master in the future.

After temporarily leaving the residence of the Queen Mother of the West, Huang Feiyan invited Ning Feixuan to accompany her, but Ning Feixuan declined, and Huang Feiyan did not insist.

The three of them left the inner courtyard together.

"What did the Queen Mother of the West say to you just now?" Yue Qingying tugged at Ming Yan's hand and asked softly.

"I told you about my constitution," Mingyan said. "I'll tell Master about it when we get back."

Upon hearing this, Yue Qingying nodded and said nothing more.

After the three returned to the inner courtyard, they found it even more lively. Cultivators could be seen strolling and chatting everywhere. Upon seeing Huang Feiyan and Yue Qingying, they all greeted them. After all, one was the eldest daughter of the Huang family, and the other was the Holy Maiden of the Fengling Yueying Holy Land. Their status was not low, and their cultivation and talent were excellent, making them quite famous.

However, not many people recognize Mingyan.

"A demon clan has obtained it. I heard it came from the border of the Eastern Continent, and it seems to be the Shengyu clan."

“Shengyu?” Upon hearing this term, Mingyan looked at Huang Feiyan with some curiosity. Huang Feiyan smiled and explained, “Shengyu is a kind of bird. There were some extremely powerful figures among its ancestors. Some people have compared Shengyu to the phoenix. The phoenix is ​​associated with fire, while Shengyu is associated with water.”

Phoenix Mingyan had heard of it, but Shengyu Mingyan had never heard of it before, and was quite curious about it.

"I remember the relationship between the two races wasn't very good, was it?" Yue Qingying asked curiously.

Legend has it that in ancient times, the Huang family and the Shengyu family had some conflicts. The Shengyu family disliked fighting, loved peace, and were all quite kind-hearted. However, the Huang family was domineering and only cared about those who were close to them. Then, for some unknown reason, the two families had some conflicts. According to rumors, the two families almost came to blows.

"It's just a rumor." Huang Feiyan smiled helplessly upon hearing this. "The Phoenix Clan and the Shengyu Clan have always had a good relationship. We established a good relationship when Shengyu himself was young, and we have maintained contact for many years. The Shengyu Clan has also helped a lot in the search for the antidote for my aunt."

"I've heard that wherever the Shengyu clan goes, they bring floods. Is that just a myth?"

"It is indeed fictional. Most of the cultivation techniques practiced by the Shengyu clan are related to water. During great battles, there are often towering waves, but they do not cause floods. The Shengyu clan is kind by nature, so how could they possibly harm ordinary people?" Huang Feiyan shook her head. "Moreover, our two clans... Phoenix ascended to the highest path first. When Shengyu was young, because his true form was a crimson bird, he was mistaken for a member of the Huang family. The Huang family also took good care of him. It seems that the Huang family's style of doing things caused dissatisfaction among many people, so they made up these stories."

“What has been passed down through the ages may not necessarily be true,” Yue Qingying said with a slight sigh.

“Yes, because so many years have passed. The lives of cultivators have their limits. How many people will remember those events from hundreds of thousands or millions of years ago?” Huang Feiyan nodded. “Just like now, if we try to find the ancestor who created the current cultivation system, we can’t find a trace in history. Everyone is cultivating, but no one thinks about who created the current cultivation system.”

Upon hearing this, Mingyan's heart stirred, and he thought of the "Sun and Moon Classic".

There is a passage in the Sun and Moon Sutra that roughly means, "Because many people cannot directly use the power of the sun and moon, they have found another way to replace it."

That method is Yinling and Yangling. Mingyan blinked. In this light, could the other party be the creator of Yinling and Yangling, or even, on a larger scale, the creator of the current four major systems?

If that's true, then the *Sun and Moon Scripture* in my possession... well, the *Sun and Moon Scripture* does indeed possess many mysterious aspects, such as bestowing upon me the sun and moon within my dantian... Is this a wondrous aspect of the Human King Body itself, or a change brought about by the *Sun and Moon Scripture*? Ning Mengru doesn't seem to have mentioned that the Human King Body's dantian contains the sun and moon...
