Da Xuan Martial Saint-Chapter 391 - 260: Poisonous Scheme

Yu City.

Chen Residence’s back courtyard.

In the hall, on a red sandalwood table, dishes were arranged, and Xu Hongyu, dressed in a light cyan dress, was sitting at the table, eating the dishes while somewhat spacing out.

Suddenly, Ning He walked in with a portion of meat cut into neat little pieces and placed the meat in front of Xu Hongyu, "This is the freshly bought ’black python meat’; Miss, please try it. It’s said to be excellent for nourishing Qi-Blood."

Martial artists who hadn’t refined their Five Viscera and Six Viscera cannot do without meat, especially those in the Bone Tempering Realm, who have a great demand for meat to supplement their Qi-Blood. As for Xu Hongyu, there is no need to mention her. Having reached the pinnacle of the Bone Tempering Realm and standing at the threshold of the Five Viscera Realm, she essentially needed a substantial amount of meat daily, including all sorts of demon meats, to maintain an ample state of Qi-Blood constantly.

Xu Hongyu glanced at the meat in the bowl and then turned to Yu Ru beside her, "Yu Ru, why don’t you taste it first?"

"No, no, I’ve gotten fatter. I was thinking of eating less meat recently."

Yu Ru said with a somewhat glum face.

Ning He couldn’t help but chuckle lightly, gave Yu Ru a once-over, and said, "Where did you get fat? I didn’t notice it."

Upon hearing this, Yu Ru felt a bit abashed, yet her gaze drifted over her body. As a Martial Artist in the Body Refinement Realm, it was quite hard for her to gain weight, not to mention that she was relatively diligent in her training. But the problem was... where was she supposed to train? She was already bigger than Xu Hongyu, even comparable to the combined sizes of Ning He and Chen Yue.

Ning He noticed Yu Ru’s gaze and realized what she was thinking. She suddenly reached out to lift and weigh something, teasing, "You have gained weight... but in some places, some people would wish to gain weight, and here you are complaining about it."

"Ning Sister, you..."

Yu Ru’s face immediately turned crimson.

How could Ning He freely weigh her there, even if they were all women... Speaking of which, had Chen Mu ever weighed Xu Hongyu and little Ning like this? If she truly got married to him, would Chen Mu weigh her like this too?

The mere thought of such a scenario made her feel overwhelmingly shy, and for a moment, she dared not look at Xu Hongyu and Ning He.

Seeing Yu Ru’s reaction, Ning He deliberately leaned closer and whispered softly, "Maybe your Brother Mu will not be able to keep his hands off you someday."

This...

Were those words even appropriate to say out loud?

Yu Ru became so shocked by Ning He’s words that she froze, and even Ning He herself blushed at her statement. Thinking about how Chen Mu had left Yu County over two and half years ago, nearing three years now.

Even though she knew Chen Mu was engrossed in Martial Arts, mostly unconcerned with other things, this trip had indeed been too long.

Xu Hongyu perhaps harbored many yearnings, yet she didn’t show it, maintaining a calm expression. Regardless of whether or not Chen Mu had time to come back, ultimately if she could get past the threshold of the Five Viscera and achieve the Five Viscera Realm, she too would have the capability to head to the State Government Office.

"This black python meat isn’t bad, although the taste is average, it contains much stronger Qi-Blood than ordinary demon meats. If you, little Ning, eat it continuously for a few months, you should be able to step into the Bone Tempering Realm. And you, Yu Ru, you’ve only used two Tendon Changing Pills; if you accumulate more Qi-Blood foundation and master one more Body Refinement technique, you could also enter the Tendon Changing Realm," Xu Hongyu told Ning He and Yu Ru.

While resources can’t determine everything, having sufficient resources eliminates many barriers in Martial Arts. Even if Yu Ru had inherently lower talents, with some precious Spiritual Objects, she could still train up to Bone Tempering and even the Five Viscera Realm, though the resources needed are often tens or hundreds of times more than usual.

But for them now, acquiring some resources wasn’t difficult. Even though Chen Mu wasn’t in Yu County, his influence could still reach here. Whether it was herself, Chen Yue, or even Ning He, they all had unobstructed access in the Demon-Slaying Office now.

"Mm-hm."

Ning He acknowledged and then said, "Yue’er coming back this trip, she could almost attempt Bone Tempering; that’s really fast."

Xu Hongyu nodded slightly, "Her root bone talent is even a bit better than mine was. She trains faster than I did to reach Bone Tempering. Entering the Five Viscera Realm in the future will be much easier for her."

With Chen Yue’s pace of cultivation and talent, if it were in the past at the Yu Family, it would have been quite shocking. But now, with Chen Mu setting a preceding high standard, knowing that Chen Yue is Chen Mu’s sister, it all seems quite normal and very fitting.

"When will Brother Mu come back?"

Yu Ru blinked her eyes, displaying a hint of longing.

"I don’t know."

Ning He shook her head, sighed, and said, "I heard there’s trouble in Ice State. It’s chaotic now. Ice State and Yu State are close; perhaps he’ll also have to go there, so now it’s uncertain when he will be back."

Initially, she felt that after Chen Mu’s attempt to conquer Yunni Sky Peak, he would return to the Seven Profound Sect to consolidate his Cultivation Realm and might find time to return afterward, according to letters sent to them. However, the situation became uncertain after the incident in Ice State.

If the Seven Profound Sect dispatched Chen Mu to Ice State, they might not see him for a short while again.

Unless they all advanced to the Five Viscera Realm, having enough ability would indeed allow them to take much more initiative and could even go directly to the State Government Office instead of being confined to just Yu County. However, Tendon Changing and Bone Tempering alone was not enough.

Yet.

While they were talking,

suddenly, a commotion arose outside, followed by an excited voice reaching the back courtyard.

"The master has returned!"

Whoosh.

In the house, Xu Hongyu, Ning He, and Yu Ru simultaneously stood up, and even Xu Hongyu’s face revealed a long-unseen joy as they all went out to welcome him.
