Li Chonglou was naturally very willing to agree to such a request at this moment.
Three full days were only enough to identify the special meridians. Further verification and training would be needed to achieve the same effect as Wutong.
In other words, he still needed time to hone it!
Thus, after another half an hour, just as his fusion was reaching its limit, Li Chonglou finally managed to activate the properties of the special meridians with the help of several acupoints!
"So this is how it feels!"
Li Chonglou replicated Wutong's moves from memory, and the next second, a faint, exotic fragrance filled his room. He could smell it too, but due to his meridians, he was no longer affected.
At the same time, Li Chonglou discovered its core principle.
The reason it affected those with internal energy was because this fragrance was actually a gas that stimulated the special meridians! Ordinary people, having not undergone training, would naturally be affected by the sudden reaction of their special meridians.
"However, this move is really quite insidious."
Although the principle was simple, Li Chonglou was already very satisfied with its effect. After all, who would block their sense of smell during a fight?
Furthermore, this internal energy circulation did not affect the host's original techniques. It was like adding an extra step at the end of the original process, allowing it to be used stealthily during a battle!
"Since that's the case, let's call it Wuxiang."
Li Chonglou also gave this combat method a name. However, this method was not without its limitations. Firstly, its operation required additional internal energy, and the consumption was not small.
If one wanted to use it, it would be best to catch the opponent off guard and finish the fight quickly.
If the battle dragged on, it would likely cause more harm than good, as for masters who had already reached a certain realm, closing off their sense of smell was not difficult.
Even so, Li Chonglou felt very happy, even a little excited!
He was happy and excited on the one hand because Wuxiang was still in its infancy and already had such an effect, and on the other hand, because of Wuxiang, Li Chonglou had found a new direction for improving his pulse potential!
With a little more time, he should be able to elevate his strength by another stage!
As he was excitedly thinking, the fusion suddenly broke, and a beam of white light surged from within him.
"Senior, may your journey be peaceful."
Although this was the third time, Li Chonglou couldn't help but be stunned every time he witnessed this scene of reincarnation.
This feeling was difficult to describe, yet it was deeply imprinted in his mind.
Only after the other party had completely disappeared did Li Chonglou regain his senses.
"Brother Li?"
Yue Hai's concerned voice echoed from outside. Li Chonglou was somewhat surprised and opened his mouth to say, "Come in."
A moment later, Yue Hai entered with a face full of joy.
"Brother Li, you're finally awake!"
Li Chonglou said with a hint of confusion, "Xiao Hai, why are you outside? Have you been waiting outside all along?"
Yue Hai actually nodded. Li Chonglou was perplexed and asked, "Why?"
"Brother Li, you still haven't told me about Xiao Ke's situation, and I'm worried."
"Uh, it's because of Xiao Ke. Didn't I tell you she's fine?"
"But she still hasn't returned."
Li Chonglou shook his head and walked to the sofa, sitting down. After meditating for several days, stretching his body made him feel comfortable all over.
"She probably won't be back. Xiao Ke had a great opportunity last time and left with a master."
"Ah?"
Yue Hai was stunned. He had considered many possibilities these past few days, but he never expected this answer.
This time, Li Chonglou didn't hide anything and roughly explained Yu Ke's situation. Only then did Yue Hai breathe a sigh of relief.
"So that's how it is. It's good that she's alright. If anything happened to Xiao Ke, I wouldn't be at peace."
Li Chonglou comforted him, "This is not your fault. Even with your help midway, it wouldn't have made much difference in how things turned out. I even went myself, but the outcome felt predetermined."
These words were not just for Yue Hai, but also for himself. When he went to the Yu family, Li Chonglou had thought that as long as he personally intervened, there wouldn't be a big problem.
This was not because he was arrogant, but because if events had unfolded normally, without Wutong's involvement, he would have been confident in subduing the Yu family.
Even if the Wu family had intervened, it wouldn't have mattered!
However, since Yu Ke had left, he no longer had a legitimate reason. Even if he were to subdue the Yu family regardless of the consequences, he wouldn't have anyone trustworthy to help him, so he could only give up directly.
Yue Hai also fell into contemplation after listening. Since coming out into the world, he had encountered too many things he couldn't handle. If it were someone else, they would have been crushed long ago.
"Why don't we let Brother Li go back to the old mountain first? If Brother Li truly accepts me as his disciple, perhaps I can improve much faster."
Yue Hai thought this and was about to bring it up when he heard Li Chonglou suddenly ask, "By the way, how is Xiao Yue doing? She seemed to be breaking through earlier, didn't she? Also, what's the current situation with the company?"
These two questions interrupted Yue Hai's thoughts, and he could only answer them one by one.
"Xiao Yue broke through successfully. This time, she has also reached the peak of the third level. It's probably just a thin line away from the fourth level."
When Yue Hai said this, his emotions were very complicated. He had only broken through not long ago, and he was also quite a bit older than Chen Peiyue, yet he was caught up so quickly!
It could be said that the blows he had suffered these days were not only from the old veteran enemies but also from the aspect of talent!
Comparing oneself to others is like comparing oneself to the dead! Yue Hai had understood this old saying long ago when Chen Peiyue broke through.
Li Chonglou understood his feelings but couldn't say much. After all, in terms of talent, Chen Peiyue was indeed a bit monstrous. Even he, if not for his fortunate encounters, would probably only be able to look up to her.
However, Yue Hai's resilience was not just for show; it was truly extraordinary. He quickly put these emotions aside and continued to talk about the company.
"With the senior Brother Li brought back, in just a week, according to Brother Zhou, we have already gained the upper hand. It's not them suppressing us anymore; it's us holding them back."
Upon saying this, Yue Hai couldn't help but grin. After all, he was also a part of the company and had grown with it. He had long since considered this place his home!
Li Chonglou's face lit up, and he quickly stood up, "It seems things are starting to go smoothly. Come, take me to see Xiao Yue first."
Yue Hai nodded and, after leading Li Chonglou out of the room, found Chen Peiyue, who was training in the four-person studio.
"Master!"
Upon seeing Li Chonglou's arrival, Chen Peiyue immediately stopped training and ran over. Cullinan, who was responsible for training her, was also in the studio.
