Nanhai Zhenjing? It sounds impressive.
Huxin felt her energy sink into her dantian, calming her mind to sense it. After a moment, she faintly felt a stream of true energy circulating around her dantian, slowly moving. However, this true energy could not be freely controlled by her for the time being; it merely wandered around her dantian. It seemed to follow a certain pattern, but anyone who practiced martial arts knew that if true energy could not be controlled freely, it was like a ticking time bomb, potentially leading to uncontrollable and complex outcomes.
If this true energy was indeed what Butler Gu referred to as Nanhai Zhenjing, then she really needed to study it carefully. If mastered well, it would be a lifelong benefit.
"Stupid Girl, daydreaming even while eating! What are you thinking about? Haven't you daydreamed enough?" Xia Yingba said, striking Huxin's head again with her chopsticks. This was probably what they meant by deep love leading to harsh criticism.
Huxin gasped in pain, stars appearing before her eyes, and she couldn't help but glare at Xia Yingba in displeasure.
"I'm not daydreaming! I'm clearly recalling Nanhai Zhenjing! I feel that Father cares for me so much; I shouldn't waste his efforts. I just want to remember more about the breathing techniques of Nanhai Zhenjing... And you just come in and hit me without any reason. Really."
After Huxin retorted, Xia Yingba paused for a moment and then angrily slammed her chopsticks on the table, her expression even more severe than before.
"You, you, you ungrateful stupid Girl! Where did all the delicacies of these eighteen years go? Nanhai Zhenjing is a profound scripture; there are no special techniques or breathing methods! I told you ten years ago that integrating Nanhai Zhenjing into your body requires you to explore and master it yourself, adapting to changes with consistency. The ultimate goal is to simplify the complex! And look at you; ten years have passed, and you haven't even grasped the basics! You... you... you are driving me crazy!"
Xia Yingba's words enlightened Huxin.
She had previously thought that there were some internal techniques related to Nanhai Zhenjing, but it turned out that it had already entered her body and required personal insight to comprehend. No wonder Butler Gu said that Xia Yingba truly cared for her! Reflecting on ten years ago, Xia Huxin must have been foolish and reckless. Xia Yingba chose not to pass down Nanhai Zhenjing to any of his sons but instead entrusted it to his unskilled daughter; this showed how deeply he cherished Xia Huxin.
Thinking of this, when Huxin looked at Xia Yingba's overly rugged and sharp features, she felt he was incredibly handsome. He was certainly a hundred times better than someone hiding behind the pearl curtain right now.
Still wanting to be her teacher? Hmph! Once she wakes up tomorrow feeling refreshed, the first thing she'll do is give Liu Yuren a lesson!
“Xiahou, tomorrow the National Master returns. This general wants to take Miss Xia to Luoming Mountain to study and discuss with the National Master. It will also help Miss Xia broaden her horizons.”
Previously, Liu Yuren, who had been watching Huxin and Xia Yingba with a smile, spoke in a gentle and steady voice from behind the pearl curtain. Upon hearing this, Huxin frowned and muttered softly,
“What National Master, what Luoming Mountain? I don’t want to go. Staying at home to eat and drink is much better. Going out in a bumpy carriage under the sun is such a hardship! I—oh!”
Before Huxin could finish her complaints, Xia Yingba struck her on the back of the head with a chopstick. Although Huxin dodged slightly, she couldn’t escape as Xia Yingba used her other hand to hit Huxin's head again with another chopstick.
“Father! I’m not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed. If you keep hitting me like this, aren’t you afraid of really making me stupid? I was just thinking about how to comprehend the Nanhai Zhenjing! Haven’t you been complaining for ten years that I haven’t even grasped a single concept? I just want to stay home and study the Nanhai Zhenjing! Maybe tomorrow I’ll come up with something impressive for you! And you, as a dignified Xiahou, shouldn’t resort to violence! You should persuade people with virtue and reason! Violence doesn’t solve problems!”
Just as Huxin was saying this, a low voice came from the doorway.
“Master, Prince Ping has sent a gift for the young lady.”
“What nonsense gift from Prince Ping! Throw it far away from me! If there’s any more disturbance during my dinner, just close the door and let the dogs out!”
Huxin was already irritated about going out with Liu Yuren tomorrow when Jing Tian'ao sent someone over with a gift. How could Huxin show any good grace?
Behind the pearl curtain, Liu Yuren chuckled softly, “What Miss Xia said about persuading people with virtue and reason turns out to mean closing the door and letting the dogs out. Heh heh…”
