Chapter 289: Chapter 275: Review and Analysis

When Wang Wu mentioned this, General Xuelang hesitated for a moment and then inexplicably asked a question in return.

“Then tell me, do you think my dance was beautiful?”

“Ah? I didn’t notice, how about you dance again?”

Wang Wu was taken aback; he couldn’t even imagine how stunning General Xuelang’s dance would be! At that time, he hadn’t noticed at all.

But General Xuelang shook his head seriously.

“Didn’t you feel anything unusual? For example, in the operation of Qi and Blood Circulation?”

“Unusual? At that time, I just felt my blood boiling, not afraid at all, the operation of Qi and Blood Circulation was especially smooth, reaching the limit of the Five Demon Pill System—wait, does this have anything to do with your dance?”

Wang Wu finally realized late.

General Xuelang smiled gently, tapping Wang Wu’s forehead with his slender jade finger.

“You silly bear, I’m not a madman, let alone would I harm you. At that time, I knew very well that the opponent was a Second-Grade Great Demon, and even if there were no other Great Demons nearby, your strength at most equated to the Peak of Third Grade. Even if you were in the fourth great realm of life, letting you face a Second-Grade Great Demon alone—a Sea Demon second only to the Great Ape King and Mad Tiger King—in these raging seas, how would that be different from sending you to your death?”

“The reason is that I had confidence, because, in addition to the Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques, I have another innate divine technique that allows your Qi and Blood Circulation to operate faster than usual. When you were finally pinned by the Blood Qi Divine Talisman, did you really think you could break free so quickly on your own?”

“It’s because I had such confidence that I suggested this to you. Of course, I admit, I didn’t foresee the subsequent changes. That Giant Whale seemed to be possessed, preferring to blow up the three demon pills it had painstakingly cultivated to perish with you. To me, it felt like silencing a witness.”

“Luckily, you survived. I was already prepared to die with you.”

So that’s how it was, Wang Wu suddenly realized.

In fact, once the Blood Qi Divine Talisman pinned down his Heart of the Earth, it took only ten seconds for the third demon pill to smash down. The breakthrough of his Qi and Blood Circulation was indeed a bit too fast.

“What is that divine technique? I’ve never heard you mention it before.”

Wang Wu was curious, but General Xuelang seemed somewhat tongue-tied. In the end, she firmly and resolutely shook her head, refusing to say anything.

“So, does this divine technique have to do with your dancing?”

Wang Wu was even more curious, grabbing General Xuelang for a bit of fun before she finally begged for mercy:

“It does, but it also doesn’t. It’s—this is a special secret technique used within chambers, similar to the secret techniques of the Human Race’s Hehuan Sect. It can incite a man’s lust, leading to his complete exhaustion…”

“But, because of your special condition, it’s actually very suitable for you… Don’t misunderstand, I’ve never used it before, not even on Bu Er’s father… I, although I was unscrupulous in the past, I didn’t care about these—don’t look down on me, okay!”

General Xuelang was utterly embarrassed, like a quail.

So that’s how it is!

Wang Wu only found it amusing; why would he mind these things? The Demon Race never cared about such matters.

Only the Human Race has these rules.

“Hold on!”

Wang Wu was greatly shocked. Did General Xuelang think he would care about these things, implying she really thought he wasn’t a demon, but a human?

No, it’s not that serious. At most, General Xuelang might have thought he was a special demon who liked Human Race culture and customs.

Right then, he picked up General Xuelang, chuckling wickedly, “I’m at such a loss. No way, today I definitely have to see it once more. My beautiful lady, won’t you dance for this great king?”

In the next second, General Xuelang swiftly slipped away.

“Xiong Wu, we’re discussing serious matters. You need to restrain your desires in the future; even though your Blood Qi is exuberant, it’s not unlimited. The demon pills you cultivate do grant substantial Shou with each upgrade, but there’s also a limit. You only have five demon pills, not fifty! Once a year from now on!”

“I humbly accept the lesson, how about once a month?”

“Shut up, do you want to hear my perspective on this battle or not?”

“I do, senior sister, please take a seat. Your junior is all ears.”

Wang Wu solemnly saluted, and only then did General Xuelang sit down beside him, speaking seriously, “From my perspective, this battle can be divided into three stages.”

“In the first phase, when I first used my Fish Water Divine Techniques, its impact on you hadn’t manifested yet. At that time, your attack was predictable, easy to guess. It was nothing more than maxing out your physical body with a Settling Technique first, then rapidly unleashing five Bloodline Secret Techniques back-to-back, and finally stacking your primary Talent, Fury, to achieve the most explosive attack effect.”

“This strategy is very suitable for crushing battlefields, group battles, and surprise attacks. For the first two, it doesn’t matter even if it’s seen through, because you can’t evade it. As for the latter, the element of surprise can inflict maximum damage.”

“But, Xiong Wu, any Third-Grade Human Race Cultivator, or any Third-Grade Great Demon, would laugh their heads off if they saw you attack like this.”

“For example, if I saw you attacking like this, I would immediately use the Demonic Wind Escape Technique to flash at least a hundred miles away, then, depending on the situation, stack the Thunderous and Swift Divine Techniques to escape over a thousand miles away within three breaths. Can you catch up?”

“You would waste a large amount of Qi Blood for nothing and be left in a helpless fury.”

“The reason I suggested you attack the Giant Whale head-on is because it was casting a spell—the Crying Baby Curse—so it couldn’t dodge or run away.”

“That way, you could successfully unleash the first phase of your attack, and we could see its effect. In this regard, it was indeed impressive, with the power to instantly kill most at the Peak of Grade Three. After all, the Bloodline Talent of your Ancient Bear Race is quite formidable.”

“The fact that the Giant Whale withstood your series of attacks was due to its three Demon Pills. At that moment, I knew things were going south. This wasn’t an ordinary Second-Grade demon. The Great Ape King and the Mad Tiger King are the only ones having three Demon Pills; the Centipede General has only two.”

“Had it been the Centipede General, you would have annihilated it in one go, leaving it defenseless. But if you two suddenly encountered, you wouldn’t even catch a centipede’s hair—it would have a hundred ways to turn around and slaughter you.”

“Then came the second phase. The Giant Whale realized what was happening and used Water Escape to move a hundred miles away. This was both a test and a decision. If you could catch up, it would only run faster, as it wouldn’t engage in a foolish battle. Only novices engage in such battles. But since you couldn’t catch up, it quickly judged that you were just a novice.”

“Then you faced the biggest setback of the battle. That Dragon’s Tooth nearly cost you your life, for the Giant Whale had already figured you out.”

“But by that time, my Fish Water Divine Techniques finally took effect, accelerating your Blood Qi Circulation. Combined with the formidable Five Demon Pill System, you evaded the successive killing moves and even counterattacked, which stunned the Giant Whale, exceeding its expectations but aligning with mine.”

“This is because, if I didn’t have that foresight, I wouldn’t have let you go into battle.”

“At that moment, the Giant Whale finally realized I wasn’t a madman dancing but was actually using Secret Technique Divine Techniques.”

“The turning point emerged during the third phase when the Giant Whale realized conventional means weren’t working and decisively used a Bloodline Treasure—a piece of Dragon Skin, much like the Hundred-Change Ruyi Demon Leaf on you, not cultivated intrinsically but released through external assistance.”

“This demonstrated the inherent depth of the Giant Whale, surpassing the Centipede General and rivaling the Great Ape King and the Mad Tiger King.”

“At this stage, I still wasn’t overly concerned because I knew the richness of your Qi Blood and the advantages of the Five Demon Pill System. The Dragon Skin of the Bloodline Treasure couldn’t last indefinitely and had time limitations. So I only needed to keep unleashing Fish and Water Joy. Even if you suffered temporarily, you could persevere.”

“Then the pressure turned to me because I had to prevent the Giant Whale from suddenly grabbing me. In fact, it tried several times, but I anticipated and evaded each attempt. If it came after me, it would definitely be heavily injured by you; though you are a novice, a real hit would be unbearable for it.”

“I had already anticipated the outcome of this battle: as long as you held on, unless the Giant Whale had a second Bloodline Treasure, it could only fight you to a draw. The key is, this battle is highly beneficial to you—we win without loss, as activating a Bloodline Treasure consumes a lot, and the Giant Whale wouldn’t prolong the confrontation.”

“But I never expected you would use an incomprehensible method—you burned that Dragon Skin…”

“What? I burned the skin?”

Wang Wu was stunned, already listening in awe because he had overlooked so many factors on the battlefield. He hardly noticed General Xuelang dancing or positioning.

The only time he focused on it was at the last moment when it somehow ended up in the south.

Initially, it was in the north, but due to his inexperience, he didn’t dwell on it.

“Yes, I’m sure, you burned that Dragon Skin, which seemed to send the Giant Whale into a bizarre, inexplicable state where it began to plead for mercy. You two appeared to engage in a rapid conversation. Instinctively feeling something was amiss, I couldn’t bother with continuing the Fish Water Divine Techniques and wanted to rush over, but you immediately clashed again.”

“It happened so fast that I’m still not sure what transpired. The Giant Whale even spat out three Demon Pills, aiming to perish with you.”

“That moment really terrified me. I couldn’t fathom why it happened; I was utterly regretful. Then, I noticed the Giant Whale behaving strangely, deploying a Blood Qi Divine Talisman to stabilize your Heart of the Earth…that was clearly a Human Race Daoist Divine Techniques!”

“But you were indeed impressive, using a Water-Storage Spirit Pill to negate the impact of the second Demon Pill.”

“I wanted to rush to save you, thinking that I wouldn’t survive either until I saw the Companion Demon Vine growing wildly. Suddenly, I realized—I hurried to reconnect with the Fish Water Divine Techniques, unleashing it with full force.”

“Thank heavens you survived.”

At this point, General Xuelang’s body couldn’t help but slightly tremble, with reddened eyes, still deeply shaken with lingering fear.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have acted on my own, I was too conceited. I thought the situation was under control. The reason I didn’t tell you was that I hoped you’d engage with a mindset of facing death to break through the barriers in your heart. I didn’t expect things to turn out this way…”

“It’s alright! You weren’t wrong. The kindness of your teaching and guidance is something I will never be able to repay in this lifetime!”

How could Wang Wu bear any grudge? It turned out he was still just a rookie!

But now things were fine; he finally had a professional tutor—not just a tutor but a tutor-sister.
