3: Did the nephew disturb my aunt? (100,000 drafts saved, please countChapter 3: Did This Nephew Disturb Aunt (100,000 words in reserve, seeking data)

Rippling water, verdant willows on both banks, water birds fluttering – the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan unfolded before his eyes.

A lone boat swiftly cut across the water under the cover of night.

On the wooden boat, Wang Yuyan stood obediently behind Ning Yuan, her bright eyes fixed solely on her Cousin.

It wasn’t until they arrived at Mantuo Manor that Wang Yuyan snapped out of her daze.

“The Young Miss is back.”

When the serving maid on guard saw Wang Yuyan, she immediately went back to report the news.

Ning Yuan and Wang Yuyan also entered the estate directly.

“Yu Yan, you finally decided to come back.”

Madam Wang emerged with several maidservants, dressed in a light yellow silk gown that barely contained her ample bosom, threatening to spill out.

Murong Fu also looked up and saw this beautiful middle-aged woman, not yet forty.

The light silk gauze made her fair skin shimmer, extremely alluring.

Soon, Madam Wang’s gaze passed over Wang Yuyan and landed on Ning Yuan behind her.

Or rather, on Murong Fu.

“Murong Fu, why are you here?”

Madam Wang spoke coldly to Ning Yuan.

Although Wang Yuyan was very close to this Cousin, her relationship with the Murong Family was not good, especially since she had a significant conflict with her elder sister-in-law, who was Murong Fu’s mother.

“Nephew greets Aunt!”

Ning Yuan immediately cupped his hands in a respectful bow.

But Madam Wang’s expression remained cold, and she let out a soft hmph, “The rules of my Mantuo Manor have always forbidden men from entering. Even if you are my nephew, you shouldn’t step foot here without permission.”

“Mother, Cousin sent me back, and besides, Cousin isn’t an outsider.”

Wang Yuyan quickly went to Madam Wang’s side, holding her hand and coaxing her in a low voice.

“What do you know? People from the Murong Family...”

Madam Wang glared at Wang Yuyan, intending to say something more, but seeing Murong Fu, she swallowed the rest of her words. “Alright, it’s been a tiring trip. You can rest here today.”

“Yu Yan, come with me. I have something to tell you.”

Madam Wang said, glancing at Wang Yuyan. Wang Yuyan’s words of refusal were swallowed, clearly showing fear of her mother.

She turned to Murong Fu and whispered, “Cousin, I’ll arrange for Qiuyue to take you to rest. I’ll come find you later.”

“It’s fine. Aunt must have something important for you. You should handle Aunt’s matters first; don’t worry about me.”

Ning Yuan smiled slightly.

He had come this time to obtain the exact location of Langhuan Paradise from Li Qingluo, and even to acquire the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill in Li Qingluo’s possession. He naturally wouldn’t leave before getting it.

Because to Cultivate Xiaoyao Sect martial arts, especially the Bei Ming Divine Skill, it’s best not to know martial arts. Those who do know martial arts must abandon their current martial arts and forget them.

However, the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill itself is a Xiaoyao Sect ultimate art, most adept at imitating various martial arts. Therefore, if he could master it, he might not need to abandon his martial arts to Cultivate the Bei Ming Divine Skill.

Even if it ultimately didn’t succeed and he still had to abandon his martial arts, by obtaining the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill, he could quickly Cultivate it at any time.

After all, the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill is a top-tier ultimate art, on par with the Six Meridian Divine Sword and the Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms.

Therefore, he was determined to obtain the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill!

Returning to the guest room, he settled down.

Ning Yuan continued to familiarize himself with the Star Shift and Canhe Finger martial arts.

During his three months in that world, although Ning Yuan hadn’t learned martial arts, he had gained considerable understanding of the Martial Dao.

The Great Zhou Divine Dynasty’s Realms were divided into three Qi Cultivation Realms, three Dao Foundation Realms, and three Divine Ability Realms.

The three Qi Cultivation Realms are: Inner Qi, True Qi, and Protective Aura Realms.

The three Dao Foundation Realms are: Aperture Opening, Metamorphosis, and Golden Core Realms.

It is said that reaching the Golden Core Realm, the third Realm of Dao Foundation, allows one to fly through the sky and burrow into the earth, live for five hundred years, and possess all sorts of incredible powers.

However, in the White Lotus Sect where Ning Yuan was, there were no such masters.

Even entering the first Realm of Dao Foundation, Aperture Opening, was extremely rare, existing only in legends.

The experts dispatched by the imperial court to encircle and suppress them were merely at the Protective Aura Realm.

“I wonder what Rank of Cultivation Technique the Star Shift and Xiao Wu Xiang Skill belong to in the Divine Dynasty.”

“Even if they don’t reach the Dao Foundation Rank, they should at least be High Grade ultimate arts of the Qi Cultivation Realm, right?”

Ning Yuan speculated in his heart.

The Divine Dynasty’s Cultivation Technique Ranks also correspond to the three major Realms: Qi Cultivation, Dao Foundation, and Divine Ability, each further divided into High, Middle, and Low Grades.

However, Ning Yuan’s knowledge was limited; he only knew this much.

The detailed distinctions were unclear.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

A maid’s voice came from outside, “Young Master Murong family, Madam invites you to the living room for dinner.”

...“Murong Fu, I didn’t expect you to actually send Yu Yan back. Have you had an Aperture Opening, or do you have some ulterior motive?”

At the dinner table, Madam Wang sat at the head, her apricot eyes suspiciously scrutinizing Murong Fu.

As an experienced woman who had navigated many romantic entanglements, she had long seen through Murong Fu’s character and knew that he wouldn’t be good to her daughter without reason.

Now that his personality had suddenly changed drastically, Madam Wang naturally harbored suspicions.

“Aunt is joking. Isn’t it only right for me to send my Cousin back? It seems Aunt has some misunderstanding about my past actions.”

Ning Yuan still acted extremely humble.

“Mother, Cousin is very good.”

Wang Yuyan, at his side, also immediately spoke up to persuade her.

“Hmph!”

Madam Wang gave Murong Fu a deep look, snorted, and picked up her chopsticks. “Eat. Mantuo Manor is all women; it’s inconvenient for a man like you to stay long. You should leave tomorrow.”

“Mother...”

Wang Yuyan became anxious, wanting to object, but Madam Wang merely glared at her, scaring Wang Yuyan into not daring to say more. At the same time, she looked at Murong Fu and said, “Your Cousin still has many matters to attend to. You can ask him yourself.”

“Aunt is right. I will leave immediately after I’ve finished my business.”

Ning Yuan smiled slightly.

He didn’t say he would leave tomorrow, but rather after he finished his business. Madam Wang apparently didn’t catch the nuance in his words.

The meal was rather awkward.

After Ning Yuan finished eating, he directly returned to his room to prepare.

The Xiao Wu Xiang Skill, he was determined to get it!

Madam Wang’s current attitude made him decide to make his move tonight... On the other side, Wang Yuyan was also sent back to her room by Madam Wang afterward. She wanted to go find her Cousin to explain, but Madam Wang had her confined.

“It’s late at night. For a woman like you to go to a man’s room, do you have no shame?”

“If you don’t feel ashamed, I’m still embarrassed!”

Madam Wang’s words were exceptionally stern.

Wang Yuyan’s eyes were red, full of grievances, and she could only comply with the arrangements.

“Hmph, what’s so good about this Murong Fu anyway? Isn’t it just a good appearance? He has no wit as a person, yet he has you completely infatuated, not like your mother at all!”

Watching Wang Yuyan leave, Madam Wang became furious.

She naturally doted on her daughter and couldn’t bear to use harsh words.

But seeing her daughter act so subserviently towards Murong Fu, Madam Wang naturally couldn’t accept it.

However, she was helpless in this regard.

Returning to her room, after bathing, it was already late at night.

Just as she was about to rest, Murong Fu’s voice came from outside the door.

“Aunt, your nephew has something I’d like to discuss with you.”

Ning Yuan stood outside the door, speaking expressionlessly.

Madam Wang, who had just finished drying herself, frowned and showed anger. “It’s so late. Whatever it is, let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

Madam Wang refused without hesitation.

Ning Yuan outside the door remained unmoved and spoke again, “It’s about some matters concerning Prince Zhennan of Dali.”

“What?”

Hearing that it concerned Duan Zhengchun, Madam Wang immediately became agitated. She fastened her chest binder and loose trousers, then reached for a thin gauze outer robe hanging on the clothes rack, draped it over herself, and immediately opened the door.

“What exactly is it?”

Madam Wang looked at Murong Fu outside the door, her gaze momentarily filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Ning Yuan looked at Madam Wang.

Madam Wang in front of him had wet hair, casually draped down, and was wearing a thin gauze outer coat, her skin faintly visible.

Her tightly bound chest seemed as if it could burst at any moment.

A seductive fragrance also permeated her surroundings.

“Aunt wouldn’t make me just stand here and talk, would she?”

Ning Yuan smiled slightly and said.

Madam Wang narrowed her eyes, but ultimately moved aside. “Then come in. I want to know what this matter concerning Prince Zhennan of Dali is? Why do you want to tell me these things?”

Madam Wang asked, feigning calmness.

She was confident that a junior like Murong Fu couldn’t possibly know about her romantic affair with Duan Zhengchun.

But now, in the middle of the night, Murong Fu suddenly mentioned Duan Zhengchun in front of her, which made Madam Wang feel a little uneasy inside.

“Could it be that that Bitch knows I betrayed her brother and left some clues in the Murong Family, which Murong Fu has now seen?”

Various suspicions flashed through Madam Wang’s mind.

However, she remained outwardly calm.

Ning Yuan entered the room, closed the door, and then latched it. Turning around, he saw the bathtub in the adjacent room. “Nephew didn’t disturb Aunt while she was bathing, did he?”

“What do you think?”

Madam Wang snorted, still showing no pleasant expression. She came to the table and sat down. “Just say what you have to say.”

“Since Aunt puts it that way, then your nephew won’t be polite!”

Ning Yuan also unceremoniously sat opposite Li Qingluo. “I heard that Aunt’s Langhuan Jade Grotto contains the Xiaoyao Sect’s Xiao Wu Xiang Skill.”

Ning Yuan seemed to be asking, but his tone was direct and plain, stating a fact.
