Chapter 548: Chapter 0550 Innate Pulse

Mu Qing sighed softly, her face unable to hide her sorrow, for it was a family heirloom, meant to be kept within the family and not passed to outsiders.

However, none of her children were suitable to learn Ancient Martial Arts techniques, until later, she felt that good martial arts should be widely disseminated.

"This is perhaps my selfishness too, I do not wish for this secret technique to be lost after coming into my hands."

In this way, she would become the eternal sinner of the Mu Family.

"Mr. Chu, you have helped me drive out the Insect Poisonous Insect from my body, and now you have also come to treat my legs. I know that no amount of wealth can repay the life-saving grace you’ve shown me, hence I pass this ancestral secret technique to Mr. Chu as a token of my gratitude."

Mu Qing said sincerely, "I implore you not to refuse."

Seeing Mu Qing so determined, Chu Ge didn’t insist on declining any longer. He nodded, "Then thank you, Madam Mu Qing."

Huo Tianqian tactfully withdrew, leaving only Chu Ge and Mu Qing in the living room.

Both sat opposite each other, knees bent, breathing into their Dantian, circulating True Qi to the head, palms facing each other; Mu Qing silently recited the mnemonics, which transformed into streams of True Qi flowing into Chu Ge’s body.

After awhile, the mnemonics were completely passed on, and Chu Ge, with his foundation in acupuncture, quickly understood the secrets within.

This method of acupuncture was somewhat different from what the old man had taught her, involving more sophisticated techniques and how to effectively use the internal True Qi with a silver needle to penetrate inwards.

Chu Ge slowly opened his eyes, having fully comprehended all the secrets, and a fine layer of sweat had appeared on his forehead.

He raised his hand to wipe it off, "Seemingly just a small acupuncture technique, yet it’s so mentally draining."

Chu Ge exclaimed, this was the true art of acupuncture.

Mu Qing smiled, she too felt a bit weak after having expended a large amount of True Qi just now.

"You’ve just comprehended the secret technique, you cannot use it right away because it needs time to adapt within your body."

Mu Qing explained.

This secret technique had transformed into True Qi and entered Chu Ge’s body. Given that Chu Ge’s body already contained other True Qi, the intrusion of a different stream of True Qi would inevitably be met with resistance.

Chu Ge understood such logic, so he once again focused his breath and began meditating.

Meanwhile, Zhao Wuji had been tasked to pick up Nangong Man Sha from the airport, which was half an hour ago.

When they returned, Huo Tianqian was in the yard tending to the plants.

Seeing this, Zhao Wuji hurriedly got out of the car and reprimanded Huo Tianqian: "Mr. Huo! Don’t meddle with those!"

Huo Tianqian was startled, turning to look at Zhao Wuji.

Zhao Wuji explained: "These are Mu Qing’s favorite plants. The two housekeepers here are also experts in gardening, they’ve been pruning them according to Mu Qing’s preferences."

Huo Tianqian understood Zhao Wuji’s concern, clearly worried he might damage the plants.

Huo Tianqian chuckled, "Sorry, I just found these plants delicate, so I couldn’t help but take a closer look."

Huo Tianqian threw away the scissors in his hand, his gaze falling on Miss Nangong Man Sha who was behind Zhao Wuji.

His eyes suddenly lit up.

Today, Nangong Man Sha was wearing a tight-fitted pencil skirt, her long and fair legs exposed to the air, deadly sexy and enticing.

"Miss Man Sha, we meet again."

Nangong Man Sha glanced at him indifferently, seemingly too young, and gave a slight nod.

Despite Nangong Man Sha’s delicate makeup, she couldn’t hide the exhaustion on her face.

"Is Mr. Chu inside treating Mu Qing?" Zhao Wuji asked.

Huo Tianqian shook his head, "Madam Mu Qing is imparting their Mu Family’s ancestral secret technique to Mr. Chu."

Zhao Wuji was astonished; his eyes widened in shock as he stared at Huo Tianqian, "Mu Qing offered to teach it on her own initiative?"

Without Mu Qing’s initiative, no one could force her to pass on this secret technique.

Huo Tianqian nodded, "I saw that Mr. Chu seemed somewhat reluctant to accept it at first."

Zhao Wuji was even more stunned. He knew a bit about Chu Ge; this person was crazy about martial arts, yet there could still be something he was unwilling to accept?

As the two were conversing, no one noticed Nangong Man Sha’s face turning paler by the second, and, in a flash, she collapsed to one side.

Fortunately, Huo Tianqian’s quick reflexes allowed him to catch Nangong Man Sha in time. His hand, quite by accident, touched the True Qi that was randomly flowing within Huo Tianqian’s body.

Huo Tianqian was momentarily distracted, but he quickly regained his composure.

Now was not the time for such thoughts.

"Chairman Zhao, please check to see if Mr. Chu and the others are done," Huo Tianqian said as he carried Nangong Man Sha to the car and placed her in the back seat.

Looking at her pale face, a surge of tenderness and compassion rose in Huo Tianqian’s heart.

He was also grateful for his own stability, enough to adhere to his principles. Had he been someone less scrupulous, he surely would have taken advantage of Nangong Man Sha.

Huo Tianqian looked down at his hand, which had accidentally brushed against Nangong Man Sha’s chest. Although he had felt a jolt of electricity, it was overshadowed by a strange sensation, as if he had done something that would make him feel guilty towards his wife.

Seeing Nangong Man Sha faint, Zhao Wuji hurried back to the living room and knocked on the door, which Mu Qing soon opened.

"Where is Mr. Chu?" Zhao Wuji asked anxiously.

Mu Qing pointed inside the living room, "Still meditating, what’s wrong?"

Zhao Wuji glanced at Chu Ge, who was meditating with his eyes closed, and couldn’t help but sigh, "It’s Miss Man Sha; she suddenly fainted."

Mu Qing did not know who Nangong Man Sha was, but with an emergency at hand and no time for questions, she let Zhao Wuji lead her to where Nangong Man Sha was.

"What happened here?" Mu Qing looked at Nangong Man Sha’s uncomfortable position inside the car and ordered, "Wuji, carry her to the living room."

Zhao Wuji exclaimed in surprise, "You want me to carry her?"

The thought of carrying another woman in front of Mu Qing was somewhat beyond him.

Mu Qing frowned, "Of course, you carry her. Do you expect me to do it?"

Seeing this, Huo Tianqian sighed helplessly. "I’ll do it."

Huo Tianqian picked up Nangong Man Sha and brought her back to the living room, laying her on the sofa. Mu Qing stepped forward to check Nangong Man Sha’s pulse.

She was completely stunned by Nangong Man Sha’s pulse condition.

Mu Qing looked at Nangong Man Sha in amazement. This girl, could she actually have an Innate Pulse condition?

But that shouldn’t be the case; someone had already opened up a bit of her meridians, yet she was still far from normal.

Seeing Mu Qing’s grave expression, Zhao Wuji was afraid that Mu Qing wouldn’t be able to treat her. After all, he knew Nangong Man Sha’s status; any mishap would be too great a responsibility for them to bear.

Thus, seeing Mu Qing’s heavy expression, Zhao Wuji quickly said, "Mu Qing, if you find this difficult, we can wait for Mr. Chu."
