Chapter 783: Chapter 783: Disciples of the Same Master
Yang Cheng was utterly shocked; in a world with countless cultivation techniques, he never expected to encounter another person practicing the same technique as himself here.
"Who exactly are you?"
He asked in a deep voice, eyes fixed on the person in black, ready to launch an attack.
"You first answer me, where did you learn this cultivation technique!"
The person in black’s tone grew urgent, even expressing excitement.
"You’re all concealed, not daring to show your true face, clearly not a good person. Why should I tell you?"
Yang Cheng snorted coldly, crossing his arms, displaying a ’what can you do to me’ attitude.
In reality, the strength of the two was evenly matched, and if they really fought, it would only end in mutual destruction. So after exchanging a few moves, neither wanted to continue fighting.
The person in black was silent for a moment, then slowly raised their hand, removing the silver mask from their face.
Under the mask was a face that stunned Yang Cheng.
Her features were exquisite, her facial structure deep and refined, with brows like distant mountains dyed with green, a tall nose, full red lips, and skin as fair and luminous as exquisite jade, making one want to reach out and touch it.
Most striking were her eyes, black as ink yet seemingly containing stars, bright and sharp, the corners slightly upturned, exuding an innate fierceness and allure.
Her long hair was tied high, exposing her slender fair neck, with a few strands falling by her ears, adding a touch of heroism.
The tight black attire clung to her body, accentuating her curves, broad shoulders, slim waist, full chest, and slender legs, exuding a cool and dangerous aura like a thorned black rose.
"I am Feng Jiuge."
The woman announced her name, her voice clear and cold like spring water hitting stone, "I have already shown enough sincerity, now can you tell me? Where exactly did you learn this Dragon and Phoenix Dance Scripture?"
Yang Cheng studied her for a moment, and after seeing that face, his hostility towards her instantly dissipated. He felt it was not just her beauty; there was something familiar about her, though he couldn’t pinpoint why.
"My grandfather taught me."
He answered truthfully.
"Your grandfather? What is his name?"
Feng Jiuge pressed on.
"Yang Tianxing."
Yang Cheng stated his grandfather’s name, his mind recalling that kind-hearted old man.
Unknowingly, his grandfather had been gone for so long, but thinking back on their time together, it still felt like just yesterday.
Feng Jiuge frowned, pondering for a moment, then slowly shook her head, "I haven’t heard of him, perhaps he used a different name in the circle."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yang Cheng asked, "I’ve told you, so where did you learn your cultivation technique?"
A hint of sadness flashed in Feng Jiuge’s eyes as she replied softly, "I’m an orphan, raised by my master since childhood, and he passed this technique to me, only it’s a pity..."
"What’s the pity?"
Yang Cheng asked.
"My master was killed by someone. His name was Gu Changfeng, a good person and the only family I had in this world."
Feng Jiuge’s voice was calm, but the sadness in her eyes betrayed her emotions.
Yang Cheng observed this girl, sensing the deep loneliness and stubbornness within her, realizing she was not a villain.
Perhaps because they shared the same master, Feng Jiuge revealed what she had kept buried in her heart, "After my master’s death, I wandered alone for ten years, enduring countless hardships to reach the current state of cultivation."
Feng Jiuge looked up at Yang Cheng, with an unmistakable fatigue in her eyes, and sighed, "But even so, with my current strength, I still can’t avenge him. I need the Moon Marrow Blood Platinum, only with its power can I break through my bottleneck, and upon reaching the Golden Core Realm, I will finally be qualified to go to Yanjing to seek revenge on those who killed my master."
Her tone was filled with repressed hatred and sorrow, and judging by her age, she appeared to be in her twenties, wandering alone, facing not only hardships but also dangers at every turn.
"I understand your feelings."
Yang Cheng sighed as well, his expression full of helplessness, "But I’m telling the truth too, someone is waiting for the Moon Marrow Blood Platinum to save their life. If they don’t get it within three days, that girl will die. Your revenge can wait, but her life cannot."
Hearing this, Feng Jiuge showed some hesitation, though she didn’t fully believe him, looking skeptically and asked, "How do I know whether what you’re saying is true?"
"How about this, I’ll gather the Moon Marrow Blood Platinum first, then take you to see the patient. If I’m lying, I’ll hand over the Moon Marrow Blood Platinum without a word."
Yang Cheng looked earnest, with not a hint of insincerity in his eyes.
Feng Jiuge stared at him for a long time, seeing no anomalies. In fact, the Moon Marrow Blood Platinum was indeed discovered by this guy first, and saving a life was indeed more important, she had no right to fight him for it.
But if this guy were to deceive her, she’d stake her life to reclaim the Moon Marrow Blood Platinum, no way could she tolerate such humiliation.
Finally, she nodded slightly, "Alright, I’ll trust you this once. If you dare to deceive me, I won’t let you off!"
"If I’m lying, let lightning strike me down."
Yang Cheng swore naturally, looking down at the churning Moon Marrow Blood Platinum in the black pit and asked, "Do you know how to extract this Moon Marrow Blood Platinum?"
"The ancient books say it can be drawn out using True Qi, but the True Qi must be abundant, and if several people work together, their cultivation techniques must be of the same attribute."
Feng Jiuge smiled slightly, "Both of us have cultivated the same technique, perfectly suited to extracting the Moon Marrow Blood Platinum together; actually, without meeting you today, I wouldn’t be able to manage it alone."
"Then I consider myself lucky to have met you here, though it would have been even better if you hadn’t attacked me at the start."
Yang Cheng grimaced; he was fortunate to react quickly, otherwise, he wouldn’t have had a chance to negotiate with this woman and would have been knocked down immediately.
Feng Jiuge’s lips curled into a shallow smile. She found this guy interesting and quite strong for his age, and was quite admirable for risking himself in the Land of Extreme Yin to save someone.
The two exchanged a knowing glance, simultaneously activating the Dragon and Phoenix Dance Scripture, consolidating True Qi in their palms, and then two streams of energy poured down, slowly infusing into the black pit below.
The two streams of True Qi naturally entwined, forming a golden pillar of light that precisely enveloped the mass of blood-red liquid.
"Boom——"
The ground trembled violently once more, as if the Moon Marrow Blood Platinum were being drawn by some force, slowly rising from underground, with silver and blood-red rays growing ever more brilliant, illuminating the entire mortuary as bright as day.
