<strong>Chapter 1086: Chapter 1078: The Mysterious Man</strong>
Knowing that the police officer across was getting angry, the man dared notugh it off anymore and quickly said, “That, that thing was bought by a mysterious person who refused to disclose their name.” After speaking, the thief nervously looked at Hua Xiangrong, only to see Hua Xiangrong’s face looking somewhat grim, as if she wanted to cut him into pieces.
But Hua Xiangrong was also feeling frustrated. She had finally found a clue, only for it to break at a critical point. Thinking of this, Hua Xiangrong couldn’t help but feel a headache, but she quickly pulled herself together, wanting to extract the features of the mysterious person from the criminal. In this way, perhaps she could identify the mysterious person from these clues.
“That mysterious person couldn’t have left no traces, right? For example, did they have any distinct features when speaking to you, and also, how much did they pay you for the silver needle?” Hua Xiangrong looked at the criminal and persistently asked.
The thief had absolutely no reservations towards Hua Xiangrong now and answered whatever was asked because he was genuinely frightened by Hua Xiangrong earlier. So the thief carefully recalled and suddenly remembered something, immediately saying, “I know, that person seemed to have a Northeast ent. Other than that, there is nothing else. That person was too good at keeping secrets.”
Hearing the criminal’s description, Hua Xiangrong was a bit helpless. She had hoped to learn a bit more, but it turned out that person only had their ent exposed. With this single clue, it was still difficult to find that person among the vast sea of people.
The criminal also seemed to notice that Hua Xiangrong was not too satisfied with this clue, so he quickly added, “That person gave me nearly ten million.”
“What!” Hua Xiangrong was immediately shocked upon hearing this astronomical figure. Xiao Yifei did mention that his silver needle was extremely precious, but Hua Xiangrong hadn’t expected anyone to pay such a huge amount for it.
“It’s unbelievable, right? Initially, I also thought the silver needle was useless.” The criminal looked at Hua Xiangrong’s surprised expression without any surprise, because he was also shocked at the time. Ten million, a Northeast ent, Hua Xiangrong’s brief shock quickly subsided. Although these two clues were vague, they were still somewhat useful.
So Hua Xiangrong continued to ask, and after learning there was no additional useful information, she turned to leave. Now, she most wanted to inform Xiao Yifei about this matter, as after all, the silver needle belonged to Xiao Yifei.
On this day, Xiao Yifei was still probing for information about the silver needle while researching the side effects of Qianxi’s cultivation technique. Through research, Xiao Yifei identified the ws in the cultivation technique, which involved opening acupoints to increase the flow rate of True Qi, enabling Qianxi to have such a cultivation level at a young age.
You see, as long as the meridians are opened, Qianxi wouldn’t need to rely on other methods daily to speed up the flow of True Qi. Among these cultivators, a single cycle of True Qi slightly increases one’s strength, but ordinary people can only speed up True Qi flow through meditation and simr methods, making theparison evident.
However, as mentioned earlier, even this wondrous technique has its ws. Since the technique involves opening acupoints for cultivation, the w is also within this aspect. The technique says one must fully release the acupoints controlling emotions to practice it.
What does this mean? It means fully opening or more urately, shattering the acupoints controlling emotions, allowing True Qi to flow unimpeded. Thus, whenever Qianxi channels her energy, she may have some emotional instability, and if influenced by external factors, it bes uncontroble.
What Xiao Yifei needed to do was repair these acupoints using the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle and the Xiao family’s One Hundred and Eight Needles, allowing Qianxi to control her emotions while channeling True Qi. This idea hinges on the assurance provided by the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle and the Xiao family’s One Hundred and Eight Needles, but it also relies on Qianxi’s solid cultivation foundation.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yifei confirmed the method of applying needles on Qianxi. The only issue now was theck of a Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle, and even if Tian Muyun gave him all six Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles, Xiao Yifei couldn’t guarantee sess with just those six. Repairing acupoints was unheard of in the world!
One can imagine how difficult the needle application would be. However, with one more Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle, Xiao Yifei could guarantee a 100% sess rate in treating Qianxi.
So in recent days, Xiao Yifei not only thought about Qianxi but also worked hard to find his missing Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle. But without any news, Xiao Yifei was quite troubled about the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle. Yet, on this day, Hua Xiangrong came to see him.
Initially, Old Hua had intended for Hua Xiangrong and her father to stay in his vi, but due to Hua Xiangrong’s work being too far away, they couldn’t live in Hua Mansion. So, Old Hua bought a very luxurious house near Hua Xiangrong’s workce. At first, Hua Xiangrong was quite surprised by her grandfather’s gesture, but being able to live near her workce, she epted it.
Hua’s father, having been with his daughter for so many years, could not bear to part from her, so he moved along too. Old Hua also arranged some servants to take care of Hua’s father, so now Hua’s father and the others were living quitefortably, much better than the shabby neighborhood where Xiao Yifei first visited.
Seeing Hua Xiangrong here, Xiao Yifei appeared a bit puzzled but mostly happy. After so many days without seeing her, Xiao Yifei did miss the kind youngdy quite a bit.
So the two sat in the garden, “Why did youe here without saying a word?” Xiao Yifei smiled and asked. Compared tost time, Hua Xiangrong seemed even more mature. “Of course, it’s because there’s something important, otherwise I missed you?” Hua Xiangrongughed and yfully teased Xiao Yifei.
In Hua Xiangrong’s heart, after so many days of getting along, Xiao Yifei’s status was almost second only to her father’s. Although Hua Xiangrong joked on her lips, there might be some truth in her heart.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei also smiled, then pretended to be angry as he looked at Hua Xiangrong and said, “What, you can’t miss me for no reason? Am I not at least moderately handsome?” As he spoke, Xiao Yifei touched his chin, as if he really was as he described.
“Yes, yes, it’s because I missed you that I came to find you.” As she spoke, Hua Xiangrong nced at Xiao Yifei’s face. That nce left Hua Xiangrong a bit stunned. Xiao Yifei was indeed handsome, but she hadn’t taken a careful look before and hadn’t realized Xiao Yifei was so good-looking, entirely different from what she remembered.
“What are you thinking about?” Xiao Yifei waved a hand in front of Hua Xiangrong’s eyes, bringing her back from her imagination. However, thinking about what she was imagining just now, Hua Xiangrong blushed, not daring to look directly at Xiao Yifei, leaving him puzzled as to why she suddenly became shy after being fine just a moment ago.
