Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 363: Chapter 233: True Feelings or False Intentions? Vetting for Mother

Upon receiving the Jade Carving, Ye Lingyue still harbored some doubts.

Generally, Family Martial Arts are inscribed on stone carvings or Iron Engravings, but this Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique was engraved on a Jade Carving, and it seemed to be not the original but a replicant.

According to what Ye Lingyue knew, on the mainland, only some of the larger sects would use jade to engrave replicants for their disciples to cultivate martial arts, whereas the recordings of martial arts by the Ye Family would usually be on ordinary stone carvings.

Ye Lingyue’s guess was not wrong, and Nie Fengxing’s subsequent words confirmed one point—the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique indeed stemmed from a sect’s martial arts.

”Since you have come to find me, you must also be aware of my origins. The Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique is a Sixth Tier Martial Arts of Hunyuan Sect, one of the Three Sects and Nine Schools. One of my ancestors was once a named disciple of the Hunyuan Sect. It is said that cultivating this technique can make the formation of the Primordial Elixir more efficient by half. After my ancestor left the sect, he passed down this martial art as a family tradition; sadly, to date, no one has truly succeeded in cultivating it.” Nie Fengxing explained, no wonder he had said earlier that whether one could successfully cultivate it depended on Ye Lingyue herself.

A Fifth Tier Martial Art did not mean much to one of the Nine Sects, the Hunyuan Sect, since Elixir Realm Martial Artists within the sect were as common as hair on an ox. An Elixir Realm Martial Artist would only qualify to be a named disciple. The Hunyuan Sect permitted named disciples who returned home to pass on the sect’s martial arts to their descendants.

Nie Fengxing himself had also learned this technique, but unfortunately, he had never managed to master it.

Had Ye Lingyue not asked about it today, he might have even forgotten about the existence of the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique.

”No matter whether I can smoothly form the elixir or break through to the Elixir Realm, I must thank the General,” Ye Lingyue expressed her gratitude and her esteem for Nie Fengxing grew a little more.

Just as Lan Cai’er had said, Nie Fengxing was completely different from those self-proclaimed superior nobles’ sons in Xia Capital. His broad-mindedness and character qualified him as an upright and outstanding man.

It was precisely because of fervent men like Nie Fengxing that the Daxia Military Camp was able to protect the vast Xixia Plain.

”You don’t have to thank me. I’m not exactly helping you—I’m helping the Ye Emperor. He certainly wouldn’t want anything to happen to you, and the stronger you are, the less the Emperor needs to worry when he goes into battle. Princess Ye, I only hope that you won’t let Ye Huang be disappointed in you,” Nie Fengxing said earnestly.

Make the mother disappointed? Ye Lingyue was confused. What did her learning the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique have to do with her mother?

”The Princess is talented and beautiful. Even if the Ye Emperor flatters and pursues, he may not necessarily match your status and strength, yet his feelings for you are sincere,” Nie Fengxing said with a heavy heart.

”General, could there be some misunderstanding?” Ye Lingyue suddenly had an epiphany, realizing Nie Fengxing thought her mother was nursing an unrequited love?

This was a big misunderstanding indeed.

”Isn’t it the case? Even in his dreams, he calls out your name,” Nie Fengxing coughed a few times, rather embarrassed.

”Of course not, my relationship with the Ye Emperor is not what you imagine it to be. She has no romantic feelings toward me, I can swear, if there is a half-lie in my words, then may I be cursed to only refine wasted elixirs every single day,” Ye Lingyue’s words immediately turned Nie Fengxing’s worry into joy, and the weight that had been on his mind for the past few days vanished all at once.

”If what you’re saying is true, that’s fantastic,” Nie Fengxing laughed heartily.

”General Nie, there’s something else I wish to ask you. Suppose one day, you discover the woman you like—if, hypothetically. If that woman had been married before and dismissed by her husband’s family, and also has a teenage daughter, would you mind?” This question had been buried deep in Ye Lingyue’s heart since she learned of Nie Fengxing’s true identity.

She needed to ascertain whether Nie Fengxing could be her mother’s good man.

If Nie Fengxing couldn’t accept it, Ye Lingyue would immediately advise Ye Huangyu to leave the Tiger Wolf Army.

Because she had already noticed that her mother’s attitude towards Nie Fengxing was increasingly different.

She would not allow anyone to hurt her mother again.

”Mind? Why would I mind? If I, Nie Fengxing, have fallen for a woman, I will love everything about her, including her past, present, and future,” Nie Fengxing did not understand why Princess Ye would suddenly ask such a question, but he answered straightforwardly without hesitation.

”General Nie, I hope you will still remember the words you said today in the future,” Ye Lingyue smiled faintly, her gaze inadvertently shifting outside the tent.

Outside the tent, a figure could be faintly seen, who must have also clearly heard Nie Fengxing’s answer. This time, she and her mother surely had not mistaken the person.

Outside the tent, Ye Huangyu stood staring blankly.

The words Nie Fengxing had just spoken seemed to still echo in her ears.

He didn’t mind, even if she had been married, given birth to children; he could overlook it all.

To love someone was to love their past, present, and future.

Nie Fengxing... were these truly your heartfelt words? Ye Huangyu felt her heartbeat quicken.

”A man’s word is his bond, firm as nine cauldrons. Yet, Princess Ye, what you mentioned may not happen to me, as I already have someone I cherish. This lifetime, I will not fall for anyone else.” Nie Fengxing coughed, his thoughts returning to Princess Ye. This steadfast man now had eyes brimming with gentleness.

A tough man’s tender feelings, this moment of tenderness wasn’t something just anyone could comprehend.

Ye Lingyue felt a pang of regret; it was a pity her mother Ye Huangyu couldn’t witness Nie Fengxing’s current expression herself, for even a heart forged from Xuantie would have melted.

Nie Fengxing already had someone he liked?

Outside the tent, Ye Huangyu’s fingers clenched into a fist.

Ye Huangyu suddenly felt a tightness in her chest, a wry smile creeping onto her lips.

Ye Huangyu, oh Ye Huangyu, what are you still daydreaming about? Could Nie Fengxing not have someone he likes?

He’s young and successful, with countless beautiful young women awaiting his favor.

Like you, a woman who has been abandoned and has a daughter, how could he possibly take notice of you.

Ye Huangyu’s heart grew cold, and she turned to leave.

When Ye Lingyue stepped out of the tent, Ye Huangyu’s figure was no longer there, but Ye Lingyue knew her goal had been achieved. She hoped that the shock would make her mother realize soon who she truly yearned for, to quickly overcome her psychological barriers, and accept Nie Fengxing.

She was already eager and looking forward to calling Nie Fengxing ”Dad.”

With Vice Manager Cui managing the Alchemist Mansion, operations were running smoothly.

Ye Lingyue could temporarily act as a hands-off shopkeeper and began to delve into studying the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique.

The Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique was divided into two stages, the first being the Small Yuan Elixir, absorbing the Yin Sha Qi of heaven and earth.

The second stage was the Great Primordial Dan Realm, at this stage, one would absorb the Yang Gang Qi of the universe.

After examining the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique, Ye Lingyue finally understood why so many from the Nie Family couldn’t cultivate the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique.

That was because the extreme positive (Yang) and extreme negative (Yin) Gang Qi and Evil Qi in the world were too scarce.

Across the mainland, most regions had only a mix of Yin Yang Gang Qi or Evil Qi.

This made the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique incredibly difficult to cultivate successfully.

However, Ye Lingyue was never one to give up easily. After memorizing the technique of the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique silently, she began searching for a suitable place to practice.
