Chapter 99: Skull

  Remember in one second, wonderful internet for free!

  Deep in the night, the lamp in Chen Jianchen's room was still shining brightly. Under the lamp, he held a book and read, his face showing no signs of fatigue. As he read, he murmured to himself, clearly fully immersed in the text.

  Shhh...

  Suddenly, wind blew outside the window and it started raining.

  The winter rain is not heavy, but it's very dense and falls gently on the window frame.

  At this moment, it was unclear whether it was blown by the wind or for some other reason, but with a creak, the originally closed window was opened, and a cold wind and rain suddenly poured in.

  Hmph!

  In just an instant, the oil lamp on the desk was blown out.

  Chen Jianchen furrowed his brow, put down the book, and gazed at the open window in the dim light. He suddenly recited: "What news does the wind bring from afar? The midnight rain knocks on the window like an old friend."

  Get up and close the window again.

  The room was very dark, almost unable to see his fingers when he stretched out his hand. Chen Jianchen also lost interest in continuing to read books, and felt his way to the bedside, took off his shoes and outerwear, ready to sleep. But as soon as he lay down on the bed, someone suddenly hugged him tightly in the darkness.

  She is a woman!

  And was stark naked...

  As soon as he came into contact with a delicate and smooth body, his mind naturally generated infinite beautiful scenery, but Chen Jianchen's whole body tensed up like a conditioned reflex.

  What's going on here?

  "My lord, I find it hard to sleep alone, and wish to share a bed with you..."

  A gentle whisper in my ear, like the fragrance of orchids, with sweet and sticky murmurs that make one's bones melt, heart racing, and uncontrollably sink into a boundless sea of tenderness.

  Chen Jianchen was shocked and shouted in a low voice: "Who is it?!" He struggled to turn over, but couldn't shake off those two jade-like arms that were as slippery as lotus roots.

  "Hehe, why must you ask my name, young master? I only seek a night's pleasure, and that's all. What freedom and joy it brings! Chen Jianchen quickly calmed down and said with a smile: "You may be able to deceive heaven and earth, but you can't deceive our hearts."

  "Haha, since we both agree, why say such deceitful things......"

  With a flip of her body, she took the initiative and rode on top of Chen Jianchen.

  At the same time, a body as white as sheep's fat jade suddenly appeared in Chen Jianchen's mind.

  Her body, so close at hand, every detail visible. That figure still made all sorts of seductive movements, sorrowful and twisting, soft as if boneless, with a hundred different charms, enough to make one's blood vessels burst!

  Like a dry and crisp sound of a metal rod, with a hint of spirituality, a thin white light suddenly flashed, like a matchstick.

  The light was only about five inches long, and although it was weak, the shape and spirit inside were complete, with a clear distinction between the blade and handle. The small sword seemed transparent, like an ethereal substance, as if a slight movement of the finger could send it flying and shattering. But at this moment, when she saw the small sword appear, the beautiful woman's body suddenly shrunk back, letting out a sharp cry as if she had seen something extremely terrifying.

  Hiss!

  The small sword didn't move, but a ray of light shot out and shone directly on the jade body. With a rustling sound, at a speed visible to the naked eye, the jade body underwent a terrifying transformation, its skin, flesh, hair, and fur falling off and dissolving one by one. In just an instant, it transformed into a dark and frightening skull.

  A previously perfect body was instantly transformed into a hideous and terrifying skull by the sword light of Haoran's nourished sword!

  The red powder skull, in an instant, separates itself, and its true face is revealed.

  What a mess!

  The skull was in a state of panic, its huge mouth open wide, as if about to pounce.

  Hiss!

  The mighty sword finally flew out, dragging a long streak of light, and the small sword burst forth with an astonishing aura, chopping down on the head.

  This slash, without any fanfare or skill, went straight as if measured with a ruler, and landed squarely in the middle of the skull.

  Splash!

  With one slash, the entire skull was reduced to powder and disappeared without a trace.

  Buzz!

  The majestic energy of my sword is like a proud and resonant sound, the overall brilliance gradually converging, in this space, the outside of the body suddenly has a tangible form condensing, looking at it, it seems to be generating a scabbard, wrapping around the blade.

  Whoosh!

  The "Three-Character Classic" hanging inside the Temple of Mud Balls shines again with brilliant light, ten originally dull large characters, each character like a pearl, radiating dazzling splendor.

  Pfft!

  In a serene courtyard to the west of Hu Village, in a wing room, Juan had been sitting upright on her bed with her eyes closed, meditating. Suddenly she opened her bright eyes, as if she had been struck by a heavy hammer, and spat out a small mouthful of blood.

  "What's that?"

  Her face was pale with shock, and she didn't even bother to wipe away the bloodstains at the corners of her mouth.

  "How is this possible? My 'Crimson Bone Great Law' was broken so easily, and it even triggered a backlash of my heart's spirit. How can this be? There is actually a sword guarding within his soul, with unmatched power and sharpness beyond compare. Could it be that he is a deeply hidden cultivator? A Mt. Shu Sword Cultivator?"

  No, no way

  ……”。

  Jianna's heart was racing wildly, and she suddenly lost her composure. Although her cultivation was extremely high, having reached the Golden Elixir realm, allowing her to transform into a human form, all of these were basically due to her father's painstaking efforts.

  Huang Pu personally enlightened his daughter and led her into the Taoist sect. At the time of enlightenment, he directly lost a part of his own cultivation to perform the Hu Xing Guan Ding ritual, which allowed Jiao Na's realm to suddenly soar. However, she herself was not well-read and had shallow knowledge, resulting in a narrow range of understanding, and she didn't know much about the existence of Zheng Qi. As a result, doubts arose, but none of them could be solved.

  What to do? What to do? Does Father know or not? Should I tell him or not?

  Joanna had never experienced such frustration in her life, her mind was a mess, chaotic and confused, she couldn't think of a reason for this moment. It wasn't until now that she realized she wasn't as strong or wise as she thought. Her heart was higher than the sky, but it was an ignorant heart.

  Gradually soothing the trauma of her heart, but just before that, Chen Jianchen's small sword in his divine soul had made a beheading blow, which was simply like a blow to her heart, leaving behind an unhealable scar.

  Every time I think about it, I have a sense of horror, and even my hands and feet can't help but tremble slightly.

  Jiona took a few deep breaths, mobilizing her heart method to gradually calm down: "Still don't tell Father about it for now, if Father finds out that I used the 'Red Powdered Skull Great Method' to play tricks, he will definitely scold me to death..."

  At this time, her mind was still on how to avoid being blamed by her father, just like a child who had done something wrong and only wanted to cover it up without confessing.

  One night of wind and rain, how many leaves have fallen.

  The next morning, the rain had not stopped and the wind had not dissipated, but people were already awake.

  Chen Jianchen opened the window and looked out at the windy and rainy scene outside, then stretched his waist comfortably.

  Dong dong dong.

  The knock on the door sounded, and when I opened it to take a look, it was Ruxiao Yue, standing outside the door of the western wing across from me. She was wearing a flower-patterned jacket, with a light dusting of powder on her face, looking just like a person in a painting.

  "Sir, is it convenient for you to talk?" Chen Jianchen made a welcoming gesture and invited her into the house.

  After sitting down, Chen Jianchen asked: "Xi Yue, what's going on?"

  Lu Xi sighed slightly and asked: "Has the young master decided to go to the Huangfu government as a small official?"

  Sister is busy?

  Chen Jianchen replied: "Yes, since I promised, I won't give up halfway."

  Lu Xi nodded slightly: "So be it, Imperial Censor Huangfu will certainly not treat the young master unfairly."

  Chen Jianchen raised an eyebrow: "Is it that you have something on your mind?"

  Ruxi bit her lip and said, "Young master, do you think Ruxi is useless? She was born into a wealthy family, but after their downfall, she entered the brothel and learned to play the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. However, in many people's eyes, especially men's, these skills are merely ornamental, only used to please others. But she had long since made a vow to herself not to live a life of forced smiles and swallowed tears. As a result, she naturally felt that her life was aimless, without direction, and didn't know what to do next.

  Chen Jianchen smiled: "How could it be?..."

  Lu Xi Yue said: "But I feel like I'm useless, can't do anything."

  Chen Jianchen's mind suddenly moved, and he said: "I heard that Lu Niang learned a good acupuncture?

  "Ah, this acupuncture technique was actually learned by me in a dream."

  Chen Jianchen was taken aback: "Learned in a dream? Even he, who had seen and known much, thought it somewhat absurd.

  "Yes, I don't know what's going on either. It was just that when I was a child, I had a strange dream where I met an old man with a white beard who said he would teach me the art of acupuncture because I had a kind heart. And so, in a daze, I learned this art of acupuncture and can't forget it..."

  At this time, Chen Jianchen also felt a bit confused.

  Dreams, white-bearded grandfathers, and the art of distinguishing yellow from yellow - these three things sound so mysterious, as if they're possessed by a dark spirit.

  His interest was piqued, and he hastily inquired about the specific details, but it had been a long time, and Lu Xi's memory was hazy, speaking very vaguely, with little valuable content.

  However, Chen Jianchen's thoughts were sharp and he understood that it was impossible for such a good thing to fall from the sky, so Lu Xiyue must have done something in the past to help a certain monk, resulting in such a good outcome. However, at that time, Lu Xiyue did not know about it, so he didn't leave any impression.

  It's hard to investigate past events. Chen Jianchen said, "Since Xi Yue has mastered the technique of acupuncture, he can do something beneficial for all living things."

  "Oh, what great thing can I do?"

  Lu Xi hastily asked in pursuit.

  Chen Jianchen smiled and remained silent, suddenly speaking in a mysterious tone: "Now it's time for breakfast. After breakfast, I have to give lessons to Princess Huangfu. Hmm, I'll come find you at noon."

  "Uh, I'm really scared."

  Lu Xi cleverly agreed, but still couldn't understand Chen Jianchen's meaning. However, no matter what, as long as she could do it, she would definitely follow Chen Jianchen's advice and do it.

  Breakfast was as usual, and after eating, Huangfu Yanwai had some business to discuss and hastily left.

  Chen Jianchen went directly to Jiona's study, where she was already sitting obediently inside. The maid Xiaohua stood by her side, looking at Miss Jiona with a puzzled expression one moment and then glancing at Chen Jianchen the next.
