Chapter 129: Wu Jiang Yuyan, inserting people
"But, I...may not be able to..."

Jiang Yuyan hesitated and stammered.

Although her father was a famous hero, she had basically no exposure to martial arts and naturally had no confidence.

After taking a few glances at the disciples practicing martial arts in the martial arts hall, Jiang Yuyan had mixed feelings and felt that she was no longer capable of doing so.

However, as soon as she said this, Lin Pingzhi's mouth corners slightly curled up.

Although he didn't know Jiang Yuyan, Lin Pingzhi knew his master Li Ming. If he said he wanted to accept Jiang Yuyan as his disciple, there was no doubt that Jiang Yuyan's martial arts talent was absolutely outstanding and the master had never made a mistake in her.

"Don't worry, this is actually not that difficult. And you won't know whether it works or not until you try it." Li Ming comforted her.

Lin Pingzhi also spoke for the first time: "Don't worry, young lady. Since the master said you can do it, then you can definitely do it. As long as you nod, we will be a family in the future, and our martial arts school will definitely not treat you unfairly."

"but……"

Jiang Yuyan was encouraged by Lin Pingzhi and was a little moved.

After all, Jiang Yuyan is only lacking in confidence because of her current experience at the bottom of the underworld. In fact, she is proud and unwilling to admit defeat in her bones, otherwise she would not have turned evil and started a killing spree in the original plot.

She originally wanted to say as usual that she was going to look for her biological father Jiang Biehe.

But when the words came to his lips, he forced himself to hold them back.

On second thought, the other party not only saved her, but also did not make things difficult for her. His words and actions did not treat her as a purchased commodity. Jiang Yuyan was deeply moved by this trust and wanted to repay him.

What's more, whether she can find her relatives successfully is still an unknown, but she has already fallen in love with her benefactor Li Ming at first sight. Now that she wants to leave, Jiang Yuyan herself is a little reluctant.

Anyway, my father is a famous hero in the martial arts world, and nothing will change in the short term. I can go find him anytime...

Jiang Yuyan thought about it for a moment and felt that it would be a good idea to settle down here first.

He immediately took two steps forward and bowed to Li Mingying.

"Disciple Jiang Yuyan, I pay my respects to the Master."

Jiang Yuyan is indeed a smart person.

Li Ming immediately asked her to get up and asked Lin Pingzhi to take her downstairs to settle her down first. From this moment on, she was a member of the martial arts school.

"Is this enough?"

Jiang Yuyan was still a little uncomfortable because in her impression, if one wanted to become a disciple in the martial arts world, didn't one have to offer tea, worship the ancestors, and go through the whole ceremony?
How come this works?

Jiang Yuyan followed Lin Pingzhi away in a daze.

Perhaps because he sympathized with Jiang Yuyan's situation and she also became his new junior sister, Lin Pingzhi became obviously much closer to Jiang Yuyan and talked more.

"Junior sister, don't be confused. Our martial arts school has never had so many red tapes. When I first became Master's disciple, I didn't even kowtow to him, and I became Master's personal disciple. You will understand after spending more time with him. In fact, Master is not harsh on us. On the contrary, he loves us very much."

As Lin Pingzhi spoke, he took Jiang Yuyan to the Foreign Affairs Hall first, arranged accommodation for her, registered her, and distributed corresponding amounts of things.

There are more rules in martial arts schools now, and the procedures are much more standardized.

But when they learned that Jiang Yuyan had become Li Ming's fourth direct disciple, the news quickly spread from the Foreign Affairs Hall to the entire martial arts hall, and all the disciples were quite surprised.

While many people were disappointed, they were also more curious about what was so special about Jiang Yuyan that she could be favored by the museum owner.

After struggling for half a day, Jiang Yuyan finally settled down.

Standing in the room that had just been assigned to her, Jiang Yuyan looked around, her face still full of disbelief.

The accommodation conditions were much better than she had imagined.

I thought Li Ming just bought me to be a maid, and it would be good enough if I could have a bunk bed to live in.

But looking at the room in front of me, it is clean, spacious and tidy, and the decoration inside the room is also very tasteful. There is also a large yard outside, with flowers and plants planted in it, and stone tables and stone benches.

According to Lin Pingzhi, these are all her places, and this is also the standard treatment for disciples in Qianming Martial Arts School.

On the table were some daily necessities, as well as a set of silver-white martial arts uniform that had just been tailored for her, which looked very exquisite.

Jiang Yuyan never had such good conditions even when her mother was still alive.

In an instant, Jiang Yuyan's eyes turned red again and she couldn't help but well up in tears.

No one has ever been so nice to her!

She even made up her mind at this moment that she was willing to use her life to repay her master's kindness.

On the other side, Li Ming was in Di Yun's cabin.

There are two small rooms in the gatehouse. One is where Di Yun lives, and the other is used to store things that are collected on behalf of others.

After all, Li Ming's fame and status are different now, and there are still many people who come to visit him. Even if those who make unreasonable troubles are excluded, there are still many large and small forces that come to visit him.

But Li Ming couldn't receive everyone who came as he did before. That would leave him with no time at all. He could only make clear the rules. Apart from informing himself of the famous sects and major forces, the rest would be left to the Foreign Affairs Hall to deal with.

Many gifts and other things were collected by Di Yun on behalf of the deceased.

In addition, there were more disciples in the martial arts school, and they came from all over the world. Di Yun also received many letters or things sent from home, and these were also the responsibility of Di Yun.

So Di Yun's workload is usually quite heavy. The small room is filled with things. As time goes by, he becomes quite familiar with the disciples in the martial arts school.

But now, on Di Yun's table were several durians sent by Magistrate Lou, and many disciples gathered around, looking at them curiously.

Like everyone else at Tongfu Inn, few of them knew anything about durian.

Now look at Li Ming opening the durian, revealing the flesh inside, each one of them is full of novelty.

“Is this thing really edible?”

Some disciples were brave enough to try new things and came up to take a few bites.

Suddenly, they all had different reactions. Some of them spit it out immediately with bitterness on their faces, while others, like Tong Xiangyu, took a few bites and slowly tasted the flavor, and actually felt that it was quite delicious.

There was another commotion in the martial arts hall, mixed with endless arguments. Some said it was delicious, while others said it was unpalatable.

Even Di Yun was curious and couldn't help but taste a piece with a complicated expression.

Accompanied by the noisy sounds of the disciples, Jiang Yuyan, who had just settled down, came nearby.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yuyan couldn't help but feel warm in her heart.

Although she was currently an outsider and didn't know most of the people in the martial arts gym, the scene of everyone getting together to joke and make fun of each other was obviously very loving, and Jiang Yuyan, who had suffered a lot of grievances in the world, couldn't help but smile.

Soon, other disciples noticed her, turned around, and were stunned. The noisy voices also died down.

Compared to her identity as Li Ming's fourth direct disciple, what makes Jiang Yuyan more eye-catching now is her appearance.

She didn't feel anything special in her ordinary attire before, but now that she had settled down, washed up, and changed into the martial arts gym's uniform silver-white clothing, she felt completely different.

The clothes were tailor-made for her body after measurements were taken, and they fit her figure very well, making her look tall and perfect.

Perhaps because she was considering practicing martial arts, Jiang Yuyan tied her hair up high behind her head. Compared with her previous frail appearance, she now had a dashing and heroic temperament.

In addition, Jiang Yuyan was beautiful and had a first-class appearance, which attracted the attention of many disciples.

Not to mention them, even Li Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Jiang Yuyan's appearance was very attractive. Now that she had just been cleaned up, she looked like a rough jade that had been polished to reveal a stunning brilliance.

Jiang Yuyan didn't expect that she would attract so much attention as soon as she appeared. Being stared at by so many people, she couldn't help but blush and feel a little nervous.

But soon, many disciples reacted, looked at Jiang Yuyan with complicated expressions, and called her "Fourth Senior Sister".

This made Jiang Yuyan even more nervous. As a newcomer, how could she be worthy of the title of senior sister? She quickly waved her hand to deny it.

Li Ming came over in time and eased her embarrassment.

"Now that you are ready, follow me. I will see how talented you are in martial arts."

Seeing Li Ming taking Jiang Yuyan away and Lin Pingzhi following, the other disciples couldn't help but reveal envious expressions.

They knew that the training paths of Master Li's direct disciples were different from those of ordinary disciples, and the skills taught were also top-notch.

It seems that the owner of the hall thinks highly of Jiang Yuyan. I wonder what kind of martial arts she will learn?
Soon, Li Ming took Jiang Yuyan to the courtyard where his disciples practiced martial arts.

It is much quieter here. Except for a few direct disciples, no one will come in.

As soon as I got here, I saw Yang Guo’s diligent figure.

He was practicing the Kongming Fist that he had just learned from Zhou Botong. The moves of the fist were implicit but not revealing, and seemed real but actually virtual. Although he had not been practicing it for long, Yang Guo had already mastered it very skillfully.

But Li Ming could see at a glance that there was a different feeling in Yang Guo's Kongming boxing style, which was a fusion of his newly learned Dou Zhuan Xing Yi and Fei Xu Jin.

It seems that Yang Guo wants to combine these together, but no matter how he practices, there are always some inconsistencies, which makes him stop and think from time to time. Since the discussion of martial arts in the Martial Arts Hall, Yang Guo and other disciples of the Martial Arts Hall have opened up their minds and often come up with some wonderful ideas, but most of them don't work. It seems that this is the case.

Seeing Li Ming appear, Yang Guo hurriedly bowed and greeted him.

But when he heard Jiang Yuyan introduced as his new junior sister, Yang Guo was surprised at first, then he looked her up and down carefully, and then he became happy.

Finally, he didn’t have to be the eldest anymore, and he greeted Jiang Yuyan in a good mood.

Arranging Yang Guo and Lin Pingzhi to work hard on the other side, Li Ming called Jiang Yuyan to the open space on the other side.

After a brief investigation, Li Ming discovered that Jiang Yuyan was indeed a blank slate and did not have any martial arts skills at all.

But this is better, Li Ming nodded with great satisfaction.

The first thing he wanted to teach Jiang Yuyan was the technique of grafting that he had just purchased.

This is a martial art that was modified in the TV series. It is extremely special and is part of the Yihua Palace wedding dress magic.

In this setting, the Wedding Dress Magic Skill is the unique skill of Yihua Palace, and grafting flowers and trees is the ninth level of the Wedding Dress Magic Skill.

The most crucial point is that the art of grafting cannot be integrated with other internal forces. If one wants to succeed in practicing it, one must abandon one's martial arts and cultivation, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

Fortunately, Jiang Yuyan is still a blank slate now, without any foundation, so it is most appropriate for her to practice grafting directly.

Therefore, Li Ming decided to teach her this first.

Jiang Yuyan was now very serious, and soon Li Ming passed the content of the exercises to Jiang Yuyan.

Jiang Yuyan was also very smart and she remembered it all after just two or three times.

But I am still confused and don’t quite understand some of the key points.

Li Ming was not worried. She had just started learning it and it wouldn't take long for her to master it completely.

After a few more pointers, Jiang Yuyan soon began to practice the art of grafting flowers and trees with some hesitation.

Although she did not have the foundation of the first eight levels of the Wedding Dress Divine Art, this art of transplanting flowers and trees seemed to be in perfect harmony with Jiang Yuyan's nature. She found it difficult at first, but soon made rapid progress.

Li Ming had just sat down nearby when he heard system prompts coming from his mind.

[Apprentice Jiang Yuyan's comprehension of grafting is enhanced, and attribute points +100 are obtained]

[Apprentice Jiang Yuyan's proficiency in grafting has been improved, and she has gained attribute points +130]

……

Wow, I was right. Jiang Yuyan's progress in practicing the art of grafting is indeed very fast.

However, Li Ming has not yet figured out what to do after she has fully learned the art of grafting.

After all, in the original plot, Jiang Yuyan took advantage of the situation and absorbed the skills of Yao Yue and Lian Xing from Yihua Palace through the art of grafting, thereby increasing her strength overnight.

Li Ming is still considering whether or not to teach her other martial arts and whether teaching her would affect the effect of the transplantation.

While he was teaching Jiang Yuyan, Yang Guo and Lin Pingzhi were also secretly observing.

Originally, I thought that the master's training route for this junior sister would be the same as theirs in the beginning, that they would first practice some introductory skills to lay the foundation, and then gradually progress.

Unexpectedly, Li Ming seemed to teach Jiang Yuyan a very special martial art right from the start, which made the two disciples somewhat jealous.

However, after watching for a long time, they still couldn't see the power of this martial art, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

The next few days were much easier. Jiang Yuyan practiced grafting at a fixed time and quantity every day.

But before long, Jiang Yuyan herself began to wonder, this seemed to be different from the martial arts life she had imagined? Why were there only a few moves over and over again?

Jiang Yuyan mastered it quickly, but continued to practice according to Li Ming's instructions to improve her proficiency and understanding.

Li Ming did not teach her other martial arts, so Jiang Yuyan became the one with the easiest life among the four disciples.

Another day and night falls.

After finishing his work at the martial arts gym, Li Ming appeared in the villa.

Standing in front of him at this time were the colorist, Lei Bin and Fatty Chen.

Feiyou Chen was full of respect towards Li Ming. Ever since Li Ming had easily eliminated the poison in his body last time, Feiyou Chen looked at Li Ming as if he were a celestial being and did not dare to show the slightest disrespect.

"Master Li, this is the information I compiled recently. Please take a look."

Feiyou Chen stepped forward and handed over the thick stack of papers in his hand.

This was in accordance with Li Ming's request, he screened and compiled the most valuable intelligence collected in Black Stone over the years and handed it to him.

Li Ming took it, flipped through it casually, and showed an interested expression.

"The Southern King intends to rebel and secretly wins over Ye Gucheng, the Lord of Baiyun City."

"Xie Xiaofeng faked his death and his whereabouts are unknown. Shenjian Villa is closed to the public, but in fact they have been secretly trying to find out the whereabouts of Xie Xiaofeng."

"Iron-hearted Divine Marquis Zhu Wusi secretly collected the secrets of the ten generals, and seemed to have rebellious intentions."

"Prince Ning has close ties with the Five Poison Sect of Southern Xinjiang..."

Li Ming saw all the secrets of the underworld, which made him once again sigh at the power of the Blackstone intelligence system.

There was a lot of information in it but no definite evidence, so the Chakravartin did not report it to his superiors at the time.

Li Ming took a look at it and put it aside.

"Have you made any progress on the things I asked you to investigate recently?"

"Yes, the old monster Ding Chunqiu from Xingxiu has destroyed two sects in the Central Plains martial arts world recently. He heard the news that his disciple Zhaixingzi had died recently, and he has come here."

"In addition, the people from the West Factory have secretly gathered in the City God Temple outside Qixia Town. They have sent people in disguise to the town three times a day to gather information. It seems that they are planning to take some action. Please be on guard, Master Li."

Fatty Chen reported.

"People from the Western Factory..." Li Ming narrowed his eyes, emitting two cold rays of light.

It's a very unpleasant feeling to be remembered by others.

"Who is from the West Factory?"

"The one currently here is Xichang's Third Detachment Leader Ji Xueyong, but according to our secret agents' observations, there should be another expert coming."

Li Ming nodded.

Ji Xueyong is only at the Xiantian realm. If the Western Factory intends to harm the martial arts school, there is really no hope by relying on him.

"By the way, there's one thing."

Li Ming said this and clapped his hands.

A figure outside heard it and pushed the door open.

When they looked over, they found that it was a disciple from Qianming Martial Arts School, wearing the school's uniform silver-white clothing.

"Let me introduce you. This is my disciple Li Jiuhua. I will have him follow you from now on and familiarize himself with Blackrock's affairs. This will also help you share some of the pressure. He is young and immature, so I hope you three can support him."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Feiyou Chen and the other two changed slightly.

They knew in their hearts that Li Ming was trying to place people into their Black Stone.

For a moment, all three of them felt a little bitter, but the emotion flashed across their faces and was not obvious.

Fatty Chen was smart and said first, "No problem. Please give me more face in the future. If you have any questions, you can come to me. I will tell you everything I know."

The other two also nodded.

Li Ming's smile brightened.

Although the three people have been controlled by him with the tendon-breaking and bone-rotting pills, Li Ming still does not intend to be a hands-off boss.

Blackstone has such a large and mature intelligence network, he will definitely find ways to further strengthen his control.

At least there have been some results now. If it weren't for Black Stone, he would not have been able to know the movements of the Western Factory people so well. It would be much easier to take action against them later.

Placing Li Jiuhua in is just the first step.

Next, Li Ming will gradually take control of the black stone into his own hands, making it a trump card hidden under the surface of the martial arts school!
