Enlightened Dao Body

“Mu Man’er, you’ve only been off the mountain for a little over a month, and look at what you’ve learned!” Qin Gou was nearly fuming. After being a recluse on Arc Moon Mountain for over a thousand years, he was unexpectedly teased by his youngest disciple.

Even her second senior sister, Ye Qishuang, now the esteemed mistress of the Xuan Nu Rakshasa Palace, wouldn’t dare act so boldly in front of him!

Mu Man’er clutched her sore bottom and quickly stepped back, flashing a sweet smile. “Master, I was just joking with you. I saw you were angry and thought a little joke might cheer you up.”

Qin Gou glared at her. “I think you’ve been led astray by some unsavory characters since you left the mountain.”

Mu Man’er bit her lip, speaking timidly, “Actually, I didn’t learn that joke after leaving the mountain.”

“Did I teach you that?” Qin Gou’s eyes widened.

“No… I snuck into Fourth Senior Sister Qiu Qianyue’s cave dwelling on Arc Moon Mountain and found it in a book under her bed,” Mu Man’er admitted, scratching her head sheepishly.

“That girl who’s obsessed with romance! I’ll catch her one day!” Qin Gou grumbled, grinding his teeth. “Now, give me your hand so I can take a drop of blood.”

Mu Man’er obediently approached her master, extending her hand. She trusted Qin Gou unconditionally; after all, he was the most important man in her life, second only to her biological father, and would never harm her.

Qin Gou took her hand and, using his spiritual energy, extracted a drop of blood without causing her any pain, letting it fall into the Dreamwalker lantern.

“Done.” Qin Gou nodded in satisfaction, eager to test the true power of this unique life-bound spiritual tool.

“Congratulations, Host. Direct contact with Mu Man’er’s body has triggered the ‘Enlightened Dao Body’ ability. Familiarity with the female body structure and ‘Evil Sword Fairy’ Mu Man’er’s body structure increased by one.”

Qin Gou: ???

He was dumbfounded.

Enlightened Dao Body? That was the special physique he’d been rewarded with for disciplining Mu Man’er. But what did it mean to suddenly increase familiarity with his cute little disciple’s body structure?

Qin Gou quickly had the system provide information about the Enlightened Dao Body.

Enlightened Dao Body:

– Effect 1: Fragrant Skin and Jade Complexion – Enhances charm, keeping the Host’s skin immaculate and free from worldly pollution, naturally emitting a subtle fragrance similar to tulips, radiant as spring blossoms, and pure as the autumn moon.

– Effect 2: Insightful Touch – Direct contact with living beings or objects grants a chance to understand their structure. As familiarity increases, the Host can discern weaknesses, vital points, pleasure points, etc. It also aids in comprehending the essence of cultivation techniques.

“Interesting,” Qin Gou murmured to himself.

Ignoring the first effect, which made him smell nice—a feature he found useless as a man—the second effect was quite satisfactory. It promised greater efficiency in cultivation and more options in combat. As for the “pleasure points,” he wasn’t sure when that would be useful…

“Hmm? Master, are you saying my hand is interesting?” Mu Man’er blinked her innocent eyes, curious.

Only then did Qin Gou realize he was still holding Mu Man’er’s pale arm. He released it, cleared his throat, and was about to speak when he heard the door open.

Qin Gou stood up and, along with Mu Man’er, walked out into the courtyard.

There, they saw a middle-aged man and woman who bore a striking resemblance to Mu Man’er, who seemed to have inherited all their best features.

“Father, Mother!” Mu Man’er exclaimed.

At that moment, Mu Man’er’s parents looked rather disheveled, their hair unkempt and clothes dusty. Her father’s robe was torn, with blood seeping from his right hand, while her mother’s lips were stained with dried blood.

Though they appeared injured, their faces lit up with warm smiles upon seeing Mu Man’er.

“Man’er.”

“And who might this young man be?” Mu Man’er’s mother asked, looking at Qin Gou with curiosity.

“Honey, be careful!” her father warned, frowning. “This senior is…”

Mu Man’er quickly took out healing pills from her spatial ring and explained, “Father, Mother, this is my master, the owner of Arc Moon Mountain.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Man’er’s mother immediately displayed an indescribable awe, and her father, recalling his distant memories, no longer doubted. They quickly bowed deeply.

“Master Qin!”

“Heavenly Master!”

Since leaving Arc Moon Mountain, even the damned system had betrayed him. Yet here, these two had addressed him by his true title—Heavenly Master of Arc Moon Mountain! Qin Gou was so moved he nearly shouted to the heavens.

He gently supported them with a touch of spiritual energy, speaking kindly, “No need for such formalities! Man’er has always been my most obedient and outstanding disciple, never causing trouble. Seeing her today, it’s clear she was well-raised by you two. You deserve all the credit!”

Qin Gou praised them lavishly, making Mu Man’er blush with embarrassment. Hadn’t she just been spanked a hundred times by her master? Wow, Master is so kind to me, even considering my dignity in front of my parents. (tln : HAHAHAHA damn you MC)

“Thank you, Heavenly Master.”

“You honor us, Heavenly Master.”

Learning that their daughter was so highly regarded by the famous Master Qin, they were overjoyed.

Qin Gou asked, puzzled, “What happened during your outing to leave you in such a state?”

Mu Man’er’s father looked ashamed, while her mother hesitated to speak.

Mu Man’er sighed and said, “Master, let me explain. Do you know about ‘Dueling’?”

“Chess?”

The little girl shook her head, resigned. “I guess such low-level disputes don’t interest Master.”

Qin Gou’s face reddened. As a recluse who had spent a thousand years learning about the world only through newspapers, he hadn’t experienced even the most mundane aspects of life. This trip down the mountain was a chance to broaden his horizons.
