Chapter 32: The Jade Maiden Heart Sutra
Qian Jin was overjoyed upon seeing this and quickly looked closely.
The newcomer was dressed in an apricot-yellow Taoist robe. Although she was young and beautiful, she was not the Little Dragon Girl he had been hoping for.
The man was incredibly fast, and in no time he was in front of Qian Jin. He then said to Qian Jin:
"Young Master Qian, it has been several years since we last met. I never expected to run into you here today."
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin smiled and said:
"Yes, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. The first time we met was when I treated you to chicken."
I never imagined that after so many years, we would meet again, and I could still treat you to a chicken dinner.
Fate is truly a wondrous thing.
After saying that, he casually tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Hong Lingbo.
Looking at the chicken leg Qian Jin handed over, Hong Lingbo recalled the scene from that day and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
He carefully took the chicken leg, then sat down next to Qian Jin and said:

"Yes, it was this roast chicken that led me to meet Young Master Qian."
It's just a pity that Young Master Qian left in such a hurry that I didn't have a chance to properly thank him.
"Thank me? I don't think you have anything to thank me for, do you?"
"Why not? If it weren't for Young Master Qian teaching me this secret method of roasting chicken, I wouldn't have been able to use this roasted chicken to curry favor with my master."
Then, in a moment of joy, my master taught me the Five Poisons Palm technique.
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin couldn't help but laugh:
"What you're saying makes a lot of sense, so how do you plan to thank me?"
Hong Lingbo thought for a moment after hearing this and said:
"Before I came here, I never expected to meet Young Master Qian, so I was not prepared at all."
"It's alright, Young Master Qian, I'll thank you however you wish."
Hong Lingbo looked at Qian Jin with her beautiful eyes, her heart filled with joy.
After several years apart, the other party had grown from an unkempt boy into a handsome and dashing young swordsman.
How come she hadn't noticed before that Qian Jin could look this good when he dressed up?
"Why are you staring at me like that? It's only been a few years, and you don't even recognize me anymore?"
Qian Jin's sudden words startled Hong Lingbo, who quickly replied:
"No, no, I'm just curious, what brings Young Master Qian here?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin said:
"I am a disciple of Quanzhen Sect, so of course I'll be here."
"But what about you? How did you end up in the Ancient Tomb? As far as I know, your master, Li Mochou, although a disciple of the Ancient Tomb, should have been expelled from it by now!"
Hong Lingbo smiled upon hearing this:
"Those are all just rumors from the outside world!"
Although my master made mistakes in the past, he was still a disciple of the Ancient Tomb Sect, so he would eventually have to return to the Ancient Tomb.
Now that my master and Uncle-Master Long have reconciled, I've settled down in the ancient tomb with my master.
Did Li Mochou move into an ancient tomb?
Qian Jin was taken aback upon hearing this, and asked in surprise:
"No way! With your master's reputation as the Crimson Serpent Fairy, would she willingly stay in the Ancient Tomb?"
"I don't know about that."
However, right now, Master is practicing the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with Uncle-Master Long, and Master forbids me from watching.
I was bored being alone, so I decided to go for a walk, and unexpectedly, I ran into you.
It turned out to be the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.
It seems that she changed Yang Guo's life trajectory, so the person who cultivated the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with Xiaolongnu changed from Yang Guo to Li Mochou.
"It seems that Miss Long has truly reconciled with your master. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for her to cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with your master."
Hong Lingbo nodded upon hearing this and said:
"yes!
Actually, at the beginning, Uncle Long was unwilling to forgive my master. However, later, it seems that my master used the Quanzhen Sword Technique as a condition for Uncle Long to be willing to cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with my master.
"I just can't understand it. The Jade Maiden Heart Sutra is the ultimate skill of my Ancient Tomb Sect. What does it have to do with the Quanzhen Swordplay?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin couldn't help but smile faintly.
He knew that without the incantation of the Quanzhen Swordplay, he would not be able to master the external skills of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra. If he could not even master the external skills, he would naturally not be able to continue practicing the internal skills.
Now that Yang Guo is no longer around, if Xiaolongnu wants to master the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, she will naturally need the Quanzhen Swordplay manual that Li Mochou found.
Hmm? No, that's not right.
Li Mochou is ambitious; she couldn't possibly be satisfied with just exchanging the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with Xiaolongnu!
Her goal was probably to become the owner of the ancient tomb.
The internal cultivation part of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra requires two people to practice together.
The practice is divided into odd-numbered "yin advances" and even-numbered "yang retreats," and there are significant differences between the two.
Those who cultivate "Yang Retreat" can stop at any time, but those who cultivate "Yin Advance" must complete it in one go.
Now that Li Mochou and Xiaolongnu are cultivating the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra together, if Li Mochou happens to be cultivating the "Yang Retreat" technique, and if she harbors evil intentions, wouldn't Xiaolongnu be in danger?
Thinking of this, Qian Jin quickly asked:
"Miss Hong, you just said that your master and your Uncle Long are cultivating the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra together and don't want you to watch."
Could it be that they're practicing the internal energy cultivation method of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra?
Upon hearing this, Hong Lingbo immediately showed a look of surprise and said:
"Yes, how did you know?"
Oops!
Upon hearing Hong Lingbo's answer, Qian Jin immediately realized that if Li Mochou truly harbored ambitions, she would likely make her move today.
So he quickly stood up and said:
"Something seems to have changed inside the ancient tomb. Please take me back to the tomb quickly."
Hong Lingbo had an inexplicable trust in Qian Jin, and upon hearing this, she stood up as well, then led Qian Jin toward the ancient tomb.
The ancient tomb was full of traps, but with Hong Lingbo leading the way, we were not likely to accidentally enter one.
The two had not gone far when they suddenly saw Granny Sun supporting the disheveled Little Dragon Girl as she rushed out from inside.
Upon seeing Qian Jin, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared on Granny Sun's previously despairing expression.
"Young Master Qian, the young lady trusted Li Mochou too easily and almost lost her life. Please, you must save her life."
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin quickly replied:
"Don't worry, Granny Sun. As long as I'm here today, no one can harm Miss Long."
Upon hearing this, Granny Sun was overjoyed. She quickly pushed Little Dragon Girl into Qian Jin's arms and shouted:
"Young Master Qian, this old woman has been struck by Li Mochou's Five Poison Palm and is doomed to die today."
So before I die, I dare to ask Young Master Qian for one more thing: the girl has been orphaned since childhood and knows nothing about worldly affairs.
"If you can save her life today, young hero, I beg you to take care of her for the rest of her life. If you agree, this old woman can die in peace."
As soon as Granny Sun finished speaking, Li Mochou's voice came from behind.
"Hmph, having been struck by my Five Poisons Palm, none of you will survive today."
