Chapter 415: Snatching Talent In Public! (2/2)

A little puzzled look came across Li Muyang's face, what does this mean? Is he going to bribe me?

“Your Majesty is right.” Li Muyang, without much time to think it over, gave an appropriate answer.

“As far as I know, Muyang has only been cultivating for one year, right?” Chu Xianda asked, looking at Li Muyang.

Li Muyang was slightly startled, though still maintained a calm outward appearance, and responded with a smile: “My official cultivation time is very short, but my Little sister s.h.i.+nian was accepted by an old Taoist as disciple and was taught the 'Art of the Breaking body'. When my sister was practicing, I also copied her blindly——-so you could say that I have a few years of cultivation foundation.”

It was only after Li Muyang came to Starry Sky that he knew that the greasy old Taoist in fact has quite an impressive background, and that the 'Art of the Breaking body' was an extremely powerful secret cultivation technique of the world. But he deliberately did not mention the name of the Taoist, and only stated the name of the technique, which should help him avoid that difficult to explain fire pit for a while, right?

As expected, many people in the room looked slightly astonished after hearing what Li Muyang said.

“Are you saying that your little sister learnt 'The Art of the Breaking body'?” Chu Xianda naturally knew the origin of 'The Art of the Breaking Body'. “Your sister is a disciple of Taoist spiritual master Ziyang?”

Li Muyang took on an innocent and shameless expression, uttering puzzledly: “Taoist spiritual master Ziyang? I don't know who Taoist spiritual master Ziyang is. I only know a greasy Taoist, who forced me to drink some extremely horrible medicine juice time and time again——but he indeed did take my sister in as a disciple and taught her a set of cultivation technique called 'The Art of the Breaking body'.”

In this way, all the eyes were gathered on Li s.h.i.+nian.

“This girl is actually a disciple of Taoist spiritual master Ziyang? I've never heard anyone say that before——”

“How would Taoist spiritual master Ziyang take in a female disciple? However, 'The Art of the Breaking Body' really is Taoist spiritual master Ziyang's famous unique skill——

“Some people call her the fourth Bright moon of Tiandu, and some people call her a lowly servant girl——but this girl's background is unexpectedly so impressive——”

Taoist spiritual master Ziyang was one of the seven Taoist spiritual masters.

Given the influence of the Taoist school in the entire divine continent, although the ident.i.ty and status of Taoist Spiritual master Ziyang was not higher than the Emperor, it was comparable to the thousand year old Buddhist school.

Since Li s.h.i.+nian was able to become his disciple, then she'll have power to gather supporters in the Taoist school.

In this way, Li s.h.i.+nian's status among the four bright moon was no longer inferior, no longer lowly, and on the contrary, comparable to the three other women.

“Since she is a disciple of Taoist Spiritual master Ziyang, I also want to meet——” Chu Xianda was more and more unhappy. Before he had made a move, that boy's background was already exposed. If he were to send someone to behead Li Muyang, then the Taoist spiritual master Ziyang would resend him, right?

Although it was said that the Buddhist and Taoist schools do not ask about worldly affairs, but that was because they do not want to ask. If they wanted to ask it would make things incredibly difficult. He was the Emperor of the state, and at that time he would need to give them a suitable explanation.

So, following Lu Xingkong's summon, Li s.h.i.+nian also squeezed through the crowd and stood in front of the Emperor.

Li s.h.i.+nian also bowed down. Chu Xianda had to tell the siblings to get up.

Li Muyang and Li s.h.i.+nian stood side by side in front of everybody. The male was clad in a white robe, handsome and confident. The female, in a red cloak and white dress, was delicate and cute.

Standing together, the siblings were like the moon among a vast sky full of stars, like a cl.u.s.ter of winter plum blossoms in a world of ice and snow, incredibly dazzling and delighted the eye.

Luo Qi and Li Yan were delighted to see their children standing in front of the platform.

Seeing the pair of beautiful children close at hand, Lu Qingming and Gongsun Yu were also full of pride.

Chu Xianda looked at Li s.h.i.+nian, asking: “Is Taoist Spiritual Master Ziyang well?”

Li s.h.i.+nian honestly confessed: “Reporting to your Majesty, I have not seen Master for several years. The last time I parted with Master, he mentioned that he needs to avoid a calamity, and to this day, I have not received any news from him. However, I believe that Master is certainly healthy and there is nothing to worry about.”

Chu Xianda nodded, once again confirming the ident.i.ty of Li s.h.i.+nian.

If he asked how Master Ziyang was and this girl answered causally without thinking, that would make him doubt the girl's ident.i.ty.

After all, Ziyang was a well-known figure in the divine continent, and his whereabouts were widely watched.

Chu Xianda knew that he was cultivating in secret, and had not paid attention to worldly affairs for many years. It fitted perfectly with what Li s.h.i.+nian had said.

“Next time you see spiritual Master, give him my regards.” Chu Xianda said, smiling. “Many years ago I met him once and I extremely admire spiritual Master.”

“Yes, Your majesty.” Li s.h.i.+nian bowed her head.

Chu Xianda then s.h.i.+fted his gaze back onto Li Muyang. “So you have the foundation of 'The Art of the Breaking Body', that explains why you could defeat the G.o.d of sword of West wind after a short period of cultivation. When I heard that there was a youngster who battled against my G.o.d of sword of West Wind on the streets of Tiandu, was undefeated, and severely injured Mu Yubai, at that time I was thinking which youngster was it, I did not expect it to be you Li Muyang——”

Chu Xianda smiled at Li Muyang: “When your study at Starry Sky finishes, is Muyang willing to serve the Kingdom?”

Li Muyang immediately responded, “I am willing to.”

“Haha, good, as long as you return, I can give you a high official position and generous salary, rare treasures and cultivation books, precious elixirs and medicines. I guarantee on the Chu clan's honour that the Li family will become one of the top clans of my West Wind Kingdom.”

Lu Qingming's eyes grew cold. This was s.n.a.t.c.hing talent in public, undisguisedly ruining the relations.h.i.+p between Li Muyang and the Lu family.
