“What did you say?”
Zhang Wu said in a trembling voice.
He would rather believe that something had gone wrong with his ears.
He had the guidance of the Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao, but he had just touched the threshold of the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique.
That guy, Lin Qi, had already mastered it with just understanding it for a bit?
How could he accept that?
The Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao also looked at You Yilin in a puzzle.
The Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao had always known You Yilin very well.
He never exaggerated or said anything uncertain.
Why was he so immature like that day? He even said that Lin Qi had already mastered the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique.
Master Yunxiao didn’t believe this news.
He thought that You Yilin had misunderstood or exaggerated.
After all, Master Yunxiao knew that You Yilin valued Lin Qi.
It was probably You Yilin who taught him the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique.
“I said that Lin Qi has already mastered the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique.”
You Yilin said it word by word that time.
Only then Zhang Wu and the Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao were sure that they didn’t hear wrong.
“How, how is that possible!” Zhang Wu couldn’t accept it and lost his composure.
As the sect leader, the Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao was much more mature. He frowned and asked, “Lin Qi, where did he learn the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique?”
The question hit the nail on the head.
Logically speaking, outer disciples should only be able to cultivate the Baiyun Mantra.
They would have to report it beforehand, even if they wanted to cultivate a higher-level cultivation technique. They would normally have to wait three to five days before they were qualified to cultivate it.
You Yilin did not have any intention of hiding anything and immediately told the truth.
“Master, I was the one who gave the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique to Lin Qi.
“I saw that Lin Qi was talented and thought that it would be beneficial for his cultivation if he tried to learn the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique now, so I decided on my own…
“Please punish me for my blunt act, master.”
Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao looked relieved and waved his hand upon hearing that.
“It’s just a small matter. Why will I punish you for that?”
“Besides, Lin Qi does have some talent. I also think that he can start to learn the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique.”
At this point, Master Yunxiao paused and continued.
“However, you are at a crucial moment to familiarize yourself with the affairs of the Baiyun Sect as the main disciple. How can you waste a lot of time for an outer disciple?”
You Yilin was slightly stunned when he heard that. Then he understood.
It seemed that Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao had misunderstood.
He thought that You Yilin must have taught Lin Qi all day long to master the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique in such a short time.
Zhang Wu naturally understood what Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao meant. His expression softened a little, and his emotions gradually calmed down.
Although Lin Qi’s progress had once again surpassed his, Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao would occasionally give him some advice when he guided him.
He would allow Zhang Wu to slowly feel it and slowly explore it most of the time.
According to Master Yunxiao, the results of cultivating in such a method would be better.
Zhang Wu naturally did not have any objections since Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao said so.
Therefore, he obediently cultivated in the training room for an entire day before he slightly grasped the tricks of the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique.
And if You Yilin had taught Lin Qi personally all day long, then it was not surprising that Lin Qi could achieve something so quickly.
Zhang Wu even guessed what happed maliciously.
Perhaps You Yilin was exaggerating Lin Qi’s realm to show that he, the main disciple, had taught him well!
Zhang Wu’s mood became better all of a sudden.
However, what You Yilin said next made Zhang Wu doubt his life again.
“Master, Yilin only gave Lin Qi the bamboo slip that recorded the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique and didn’t give Lin Qi any advice.”
You Yilin looked at Zhang Wu awkwardly after saying that.
You Yilin didn’t dare to hide anything and could only tell the truth in front of the Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao.
However, this might greatly affect Zhang Wu’s confidence and even affect his passion for cultivation!
As expected, Zhang Wu’s face was filled with shock as he muttered to himself in a low voice, “Impossible, impossible, I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it…”
You Yilin secretly sighed upon seeing that.
You Yilin himself probably would not have believed it if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes.
However, the matter was right in front of him. There was nothing he could do even if he didn’t believe it.
Lin Qi had indeed mastered it.
Moreover, there was one thing that You Yilin hadn’t emphasized yet.
Lin Qi had gotten the bamboo slip early in the morning, and someone said that he had gone back after just a few glances.
It had been a long time since You Yilin had gone to see Lin Qi.
An entire day had passed when he came back to report to the Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao.
After all, You Yilin was busy as the main disciple and had plenty of things to deal with.
Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao and Zhang Wu naturally thought that Lin Qi had spent an entire day learning the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique.
However, just knowing that Lin Qi had mastered it have shocked them so much.
Zhang Wu might be defeated and never recover if he told the truth.
You Yilin decided not to tell the whole story after pondering about the pros and cons.
Of course, You Yilin wouldn’t dare to hide anything if Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao asked in detail.
Fortunately, Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao didn’t ask for details.
One day was already incredible. Who would ask how long it took?
It was like a commoner who had never practiced cultivation saying that he could kill a cow with one punch.
That matter was already unbelievable enough. No one would ask, “Then can you crack the mountain with one punch?”
It was because of such habitual thought that Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao and Zhang Wu missed the truth.
You Yilin did not feel the slightest bit guilty about this.
After all, he was thinking about Zhang Wu’s state of mind. Such a white lie was also a helpless act of his.
Moreover, he did not deliberately lie.
He only said that Lin Qi had learned it, not that Lin Qi spent an entire day to learn the cultivation.
They were the ones who didn’t ask.
You Yilin excused himself upon seeing that Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao didn’t ask further, saying that he still had things to deal with.
Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao turned to look at Zhang Wu beside him and frowned slightly.
At first, Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao thought that Lin Qi was just good at using the aura in his body.
But now, it seemed that he had made a mistake.
Lin Qi was a true genius!
It was indeed amazing to master the Baiyun Mantra in one day.
But he had already mastered the Flowing Cloud Movement Technique the next day. Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao was clear what that meant.
A favored Son of Heaven!
Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao’s gaze towards Zhang Wu had gradually lost the sense of anticipation.
Although Zhang Wu was good, he was not worth mentioning compared to Lin Qi.
He must make Lin Qi his disciple!
