"So if it wasn't for his own willingness, I couldn't force him either."
Hearing this, Li Chongshu's heart settled a little. He had seen Sister Qing's feelings for Lin Qing. If this was all a scam from beginning to end.
Even as an outsider, he found it hard to accept.
Then, Wutong explained why the matter had to be kept secret.
"Because of this, Qing always asked me not to leak it out. He was afraid that Xiao Qing would overthink things and think his original intention was impure."
Li Chonglou nodded in understanding.
As for what happened next, it was simple. Although Lin Qing acted out of his original intention, no matter what, Wutong also had his own intentions. Therefore, Lin Qing helped connect Yu Ke with him and informed her about Yu Ke's affairs.
Wutong even confessed that Yu Ke suddenly finding him this time was also due to his arrangements.
"What I initially thought was that Xiao Ke still couldn't let go of you, so I wanted her to face reality first. I didn't expect Yu family's affairs to become more and more serious, which gave me an opportunity."
Wutong chuckled, "Xiao Ke's brother doesn't know me. He handed Yu Ke over to me simply because I promised him a sum of money afterward and guaranteed that he would not be in any danger regarding the Yu family's affairs."
What a讽刺 fact. Li Chonglou instantly understood why Yu Ke had become so determined. For a sum of money and his own safety, he could sell her off.
Such a thing, even an ordinary beast wouldn't do it!
This Yu Tianba was worse than a beast!
Li Chonglou's gaze suddenly turned cold. Wutong said indifferently, "But don't worry, I won't talk about morality with people like him. I won't be back for a while after taking Xiao Ke away this time."
"What about Lin Qing? Wasn't he the one dealing with Yu Tianba?"
Wutong shook his head, "This was also Qing's idea. If that guy confessed, he could also use this opportunity to be honest with Xiao Qing."
So, he was also a person with careful thoughts. However, considering his intention to be honest with Sister Qing, Li Chonglou felt a bit relieved.
He had learned about Yu Ke's situation, and Li Chonglou immediately shifted the topic to the main point.
"Then tell me about your so-called cultivation technique."
No matter how much Wutong said, it was only his one-sided account. Moreover, according to him, he had discovered Yu Ke many years ago. The only thing Li Chonglou could verify now was the matter of his cultivation technique.
Wutong seemed to have anticipated this and said calmly, "I can demonstrate it for you. With your abilities, you should be able to see its characteristics."
As soon as he finished speaking, a subtle, soft energy spread out, and at the same time, a faint, indescribable fragrance entered Li Chonglou's nostrils.
One must maintain the highest vigilance towards the unknown. Li Chonglou immediately cut off his sense of smell, and in less than a second, his brain felt a slight dizziness!
Li Chonglou was startled. At this moment, Wutong had already reached out to him.
The speed was astonishing!
His strength at the fifth level erupted completely. A large fist shot straight towards his abdomen. Li Chonglou narrowed his eyes. Having been fused with his soul throughout, he immediately used the Instantaneous Step.
When the person in front of him disappeared, Wutong couldn't help but be stunned. Li Chonglou's fist came from the left, but Wutong directly retracted his energy.
The fist stopped just an inch away from his face.
Li Chonglou retracted his fist with a slight frown, while Wutong said calmly, "There's no need for more. That was the greatest characteristic."
"Then why is only Yu Ke suitable?"
This was what he truly needed to verify, and he couldn't let the other party dismiss it so easily.
"Meridians. Actually, this is the most core secret of my cultivation technique, but it's fine to tell you. However, you must promise me not to spread it further."
Wutong put his hands behind his back and suddenly exhibited the demeanor of a master. However, with his aura and confidence at this moment, he couldn't be said to be exactly like a mysterious master.
But anyone ordinary would surely be intimidated!
"Go on. From what you're saying, this is just one of the core conditions. Even if I spread it, it probably won't be useful."
"Clever. The meridians within the human body are complex. Many people spend their entire lives unable to develop even a third of them. Although unblocking all of them is one of the prerequisites for entry, how many people can actually utilize them after unblocking?"
Wutong sighed slightly as he spoke, and Li Chonglou's heart tightened.
Utilizing all the meridians in the body, wasn't this exactly the direction of Maixian!
However, Maixian was not just talk. Meridians connected acupoints. Ordinary cultivation techniques usually had fixed meridian circulation. The more profound the technique, the more meridians were utilized.
But once the number increased, there were also many problems. It was like a stream of energy circulating within the body. It suddenly encountered three or even eight directions, and choosing which direction to take was a problem.
Another problem was that after choosing a direction, the route might be longer, and the energy consumption would thus increase.
To put it bluntly, if it was originally expected to unleash ten percent of its power, it could only release eight percent in the end, or it would still be ten percent, but the time taken would double.
In short, masters in the conventional sense were distinguished by who had thicker internal energy, who could display greater power with the same technique, or who could utilize more meridians.
With the addition of acupoints, Maixian was like every surge of qi having a refueling station along the way. This was why Maixian's characteristic was to become stronger with each battle, and its endurance was several times that of ordinary people.
It could be said that Maixian was truly evolving in this direction!
Li Chonglou's ultimate goal was also to mobilize all the meridians in his body through Maixian!
His thoughts drifted, and Li Chonglou shook his head. Wutong, after sighing, continued with a hint of pride.
"My cultivation technique has developed the characteristics of a certain meridian. The qi circulated through it will have a natural deceptive effect."
"The reason for choosing Yu Ke is that she is the person with the naturally powerful meridian I have ever seen!"
Wutong finished speaking and looked at Li Chonglou, "I can also tell you the location of that meridian, and you can compare it with Yu Ke's to see if I'm lying. Another thing is."
"I dare to tell you because I know that knowing the location is useless. Without my special method of training and specific circulation routes, attempting it rashly could lead to qi deviation at best."
"At worst, it could ruin your future!"
This last sentence, while seemingly describing a characteristic, was also a warning. Li Chonglou understood perfectly. However, at this moment, he had another doubt in his mind.
"But why do you know Yu Ke's is different?"
