Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

18: I don’t believe your eyes are empty.”Forget it, we’ll talk about this later.”

Cao Bu was not in a hurry. Within the Gu Clan, with Su Li and Ye Linglong present, he did not need to take action personally for the time being.

Moreover, the highest Cultivation Technique and Martial Skill inside the Scripture Pavilion only reached the Universe Rank.

As for Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills above the Universe Rank, they belonged to the core secrets of the Gu Clan, and only experts at the Realm King level or above were qualified to access them.

Of course, Core Disciples of the Gu Clan could also access them.

Such as the few people like Gu Chuyan and the others.

To enter, one must also obtain authorization from the Three Matriarchs.

Suddenly.

Cao Bu slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing: ”Right, I should go find Su Li and have her take me!”

Dozens of breaths later, Cao Bu arrived outside Su Li’s sleeping quarters.

Scholarly Fragrance Courtyard was divided into an Inner Courtyard and an Outer Courtyard.

The Inner Courtyard was the residence of Su Li and Gu Yingying, where idlers were forbidden to enter; the Outer Courtyard was the living quarters for the guards and Maidservants.

Normally, without Su Li’s permission, no one dared to step half a step into the Inner Courtyard.

This was also one of the reasons why Cao Bu was not very worried about being discovered.

The only one he needed to be wary of was that girl, Gu Yingying.

She would return from time to time, and if she caught him bullying Su Li, she would likely draw her sword on the spot and hack him into pieces.

Although this possibility was not high, he had to be on guard.

After all, when passion ran high, both of them would let down all their defenses.

Even Su Li, this quasi-Emperor expert, was no exception.

”It’s broad daylight, what are you doing here?”

Su Li opened the door, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Cao Bu always visited in the dead of night; coming in broad daylight, he wasn’t afraid of being discovered.

She quickly reached out and pulled Cao Bu into the room.

”Take me to the Scripture Pavilion.”

Cao Bu stated his purpose directly.

If he was going to Cultivate, he should find the highest Rank, saving the trouble of switching later!

”With your identity...” Halfway through her sentence, Su Li suddenly understood: ”You want to go to the other Scripture Pavilion.”

Cao Bu nodded: ”Correct.”

”Fine, I’ll take you there myself.” Su Li raised her slender hand, and a lustrous white jade pendant appeared out of thin air.

As spiritual power was injected into it, the jade pendant bloomed with a blinding white light, instantly transforming into a rotating teleportation channel.

”Let’s go.”

She took Cao Bu’s hand, turned around, and stepped into it.

With a flash of light, the two were already standing in a secret hall a thousand miles beneath the main Peak of the Gu Clan.

The surrounding walls were embedded with thirty-six night-luminescent pearls the size of human heads, illuminating the entire space like daylight.

”There are seventy-two quasi-Saint Arts, thirty-six Saint Arts, nine quasi-Emperor Arts, and three Emperor Arts here.”

Su Li raised her hand and pointed to the displayed sandalwood shelves.

”Take as many as you want, but you must return them within a month.”

She tapped the Void Realm lightly with her fingertip, and a screen of light appeared, reflecting the scene outside the hall.

Two old men sat cross-legged, one in black and one in white, their auras as deep as an abyss and as vast as the sea.

Cao Bu glanced at the two of them; these were The Black and White Elders, second only to the Three Matriarchs, with the cultivation of a Peak World Venerable.

”The Black and White Elders are guarding outside, and they will come in to check once a month.” Su Li cautioned in a low voice: ”If even one book is missing, they will immediately report it to me and Leng Yue.”

Cao Bu’s gaze swept over, and he saw Jade Slips neatly arranged on the shelves, each one emitting an ancient and profound aura.

He did not hesitate at all and walked straight toward the three Emperor Arts displayed at the very front.

Back then, Gu Qingtian destroyed an Immortal Emperor Clan, and most of the Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills here were obtained from that Immortal Emperor Clan, now becoming the treasures of the Gu Clan.

”By the way, was the incomplete Immortal Scripture that Gu Qingtian Cultivated left behind?” This was what Cao Bu cared about most.

That incomplete Immortal Scripture was one of Gu Qingtian’s greatest Opportunities.

If he could get his hands on it, perhaps his Inheritance rate would soar.

Su Li shook her head: ”I reckon only Luo Qingcheng and his two sons know.”

”I guess he definitely sealed the scripture directly in their Sea of Consciousness so that it wouldn’t be leaked.”

Cao Bu nodded and walked straight to the bookshelf, picking up one of them.

”One Sword Separates Worlds.”

This was one of the Gu Clan’s top Emperor Arts and belonged to the High Grade Emperor Art; the entire sword technique only had one move, relying entirely on personal comprehension.

He began to flip through it carefully.

Su Li did not urge him, standing quietly to the side to wait.

Two hours later.

Cao Bu put down ”One Sword Separates Worlds.”

He turned and came to the quasi-Emperor Art area, finding a movement Secret Manual called ”Traceless Sword Evasion.”

This movement technique, when practiced to the extreme, could ignore spatial distance, allowing one to instantly reach wherever one thought of.

Of course, this was related to the coverage range of one’s Divine Sense.

It belonged to the top-tier quasi-Emperor Art.

”Aren’t these the two specialties Gu Yun is best at?”

Only then did Su Li discover that Cao Bu seemed to have chosen these two books intentionally.

Cao Bu looked up and smiled at her: ”Since I’m going to impersonate him, of course I have to learn all his signature skills.”

Su Li nodded in sudden realization.

Indeed, if he even knew Gu Yun’s signature Martial Skills, then even if the two stood face to face, who would be able to tell who was who?

Thinking of this, Su Li suddenly realized a terrifying problem.

If Cao Bu learned all the martial arts in the world, coupled with the Thousand Illusions Formless Art, wouldn’t he be able to perfectly disguise himself as anyone?

As soon as this thought appeared, it became uncontrollable.

She gasped, staring at Cao Bu in shock.

Only now did she truly understand how Heaven-Defying the Thousand Illusions Formless Art was.

This wasn’t just some Cultivation Technique; it was simply a bug-like existence!

Half an hour passed.

Cao Bu closed ”Traceless Sword Evasion.”

”Let’s go, it’s time to head back.”

Su Li looked puzzled: ”Aren’t you going to take these two Secret Manuals back to Cultivate?”

Cao Bu pointed to his own head: ”I’ve already remembered them all here.”

Su Li’s eyes widened instantly.

One had to know that even for Gu Qingtian, it would take at least several months to completely memorize one quasi-Emperor Art and one Emperor Art.

Remembering them here was not just simply memorizing the text.

One had to understand the Profound Truth within and form a complete memory circuit.

This was where Cultivation Techniques were difficult to remember.

If one just rote memorized them, they would soon be forgotten.

It was just like reciting ancient texts; knowing the characters was useless, one had to understand the meaning to truly remember them.

Cao Bu had only used two and a half hours to memorize two top-tier Cultivation Techniques; this was simply too exaggerated.

After the shock, only joy remained in Su Li’s heart.

This time, she had really found a treasure.

With this talent, Cao Bu surpassing Gu Qingtian was only a matter of time.

However, she couldn’t quite figure something out.

Cao Bu clearly had a supreme treasure that could enhance talent, which was the yin-yang demonic source she had seen before; why didn’t he use it sooner?

If he had used it sooner, Cao Bu might have already achieved Immortal Ascension.

Seeing Su Li dazed, Cao Bu gently patted her arm: ”Let’s go.”

Su Li finally came back to her senses and hurriedly opened the teleportation channel.

In the blink of an eye, the two had returned to the sleeping quarters where she resided.

”I’m going back to try Cultivating for a bit.”

Cao Bu said this and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, Su Li grabbed his sleeve.

As her eyes darted around, she exuded charm.

”Bu’er, take a good look at me; I don’t believe your eyes are empty.”

Cao Bu raised an eyebrow.

A dangerous light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

It was currently in progress.

A crisp shout suddenly came from outside the door: ”Mother! Are you in the room?”

This voice was like a basin of cold water poured down, instantly extinguishing the interest of the two.

Cao Bu said urgently: ”Didn’t you set up a Barrier?”

Su Li hurriedly gathered her disheveled clothes and said irritably: ”I set up a soundproofing Barrier, it doesn’t block people!”

Cao Bu gritted his teeth in hatred: ”This damn girl, she doesn’t come early, she doesn’t come late, but she has to come at this exact moment! Just wait and see how I deal with her later!”

He now only felt his whole body burning with heat, an arrow on the string that had to be pulled back.

Guys, who understands this feeling!

It’s all that woman Su Li’s fault, insisting on being intimate with him in broad daylight. Now look, they are about to be caught, it’s simply fatal!

Su Li rolled her eyes at him: ”Can you beat her?”

Cao Bu was speechless upon hearing this.

It seemed he really couldn’t beat her.

This girl was young, yet she was already a Cultivator in the Divine Power Realm.

Her talent was even more terrifying than Su Li’s, and achieving Immortal Ascension in the future should not be a problem.

”Quick, hide under the bed!” Su Li thought of a plan in her urgency.

Cao Bu didn’t even have time to put on his shoes; he just grabbed them and dove under the bed.

He hurriedly circulated the Thousand Illusions Formless Art to the extreme, holding his breath and letting his heartbeat temporarily stop.

In all his years in the Gu Clan, this was the first time he had been so anxious.

Su Li had just straightened her skirt when her peripheral vision unconsciously glanced toward the bottom of the bed.

Just at this moment, the door was pushed open with a creak.

She was so startled that she immediately withdrew her gaze, turning to look at the door while forcing herself to remain calm.

Only to see a bright and moving young girl bouncing and jumping into the room, her skirt dancing along with her light steps.

”Mother! Why are you ignoring me?” the young girl pouted coquettishly, her voice crisp and pleasant.

The person who came was none other than Su Li and Gu Qingtian’s only daughter: Gu Yingying.

She walked straight to the round table and unceremoniously poured herself a cup of tea, drinking it ”gulp, gulp.”

”Oh my god, I’m exhausted.”
