Chapter 47 The Correct Use of the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Finger Technique
No sooner had Liu Jing finished speaking than Wu Shuangxue's clear, cold voice came from the side: "In that case, how about Young Master Yue teach me? My martial arts skills aren't that great anyway, so teaching one is the same as teaching two."
When Wu Shuangxue mentioned "Young Master Yue," she seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally mimicking Liu Jing's tone. Liu Jing blushed slightly and greeted Wu Shuangxue with a bow, "Sister Wu, you're not asleep?"
Wu Shuangxue said, "I was just going to bed when I heard some noise, so I came to check. Young Master Yue, is there anything you wouldn't want me to see?"
Wu Shuangxue's reason was exactly the same as Liu Jing's, making Liu Jing's face turn even redder. Yue Feng glared at Wu Shuangxue with annoyance, then said, "You teach her, I'm going to sleep, I'll stay home a little longer," and closed the door.
Wu Shuangxue and Liu Jing looked at each other. Liu Jing smiled, while Wu Shuangxue snorted. Suddenly, with a creak, Yue Feng opened the door again.
"It's not impossible for me to teach you. But you have to follow my instructions."
Yue Feng told Liu Jing and Wu Shuangxue about his arrangements, and they both agreed.
Yue Feng dismissed them, telling them to go and prepare. He returned to his room, changed into an inconspicuous hemp robe, and took out the long-unused Asura mask, putting it on. He carefully checked himself in the mirror, making sure there were no flaws, before going out the window and around to the backyard.
In the small backyard garden, Liu Zhengfeng's most beloved youngest son, Liu Qin, looked at his older sister with a puzzled expression: "Sis, it's so late, why did you call me out?"
Liu Jing replied with a smile, "Of course I'll teach you martial arts. During the day, I have to help Mother with housework, so I don't have time to teach you. I can only do it during the evening."
The simple-minded Liu Qin nodded without much thought. The two drew their longswords and sparred for a while using the Hengshan School's direct lineage swordsmanship. Liu Jing praised Liu Qin's swordsmanship highly, making Liu Qin beam with joy: "Sister, let's practice again!"
A gentle breeze suddenly blew by, and a figure dressed in hemp clothing and wearing a mask appeared before the two. The mask was blood red, depicting a ferocious Asura. Combined with the person's overwhelmingly powerful aura, it was a sight to behold, sending chills down one's spine.
Liu Qin cried out in surprise and hid behind Liu Jing. Liu Jing frowned secretly, both dissatisfied with Liu Qin's reaction and unsure whether the person in front of her was actually Yue Feng. After all, Yue Feng had only told her what to do, not what he himself was supposed to do.
After the man appeared, he didn't even glance at Liu Jing and Liu Qin, but calmly asked, "Where is Qu Yang? Tell me, and I'll spare your lives."
Liu Jing heard that the man's voice was completely different from Yue Feng's, and she couldn't help but feel afraid. Her voice trembled as she answered, "Who are you? What do you want with Uncle Qu?"
The man said, "You don't need to know that. You just need to know that my patience is limited, and if you don't tell me, I'm going to kill you."
Liu Jing noticed that Liu Qin, who was hiding behind her, was trembling more and more violently, filled with fear and disappointment. She gritted her teeth and said, "Kill me if you want! But you'll never get me to reveal Uncle Qu's whereabouts."
The man slowly raised his hand, and Liu Jing and Liu Qin felt as if the air in front of them had been sucked out, making it hard to breathe.
"Sister..." Liu Qin called out to Liu Jing, when suddenly her eyes lit up. A crescent-shaped blade flashed out from behind the artificial hill next to them, striking the man's waist.
The man snorted coldly and pointed twice in the air. Wu Shuangxue's single-edged sword shattered, and with a muffled groan, she fell heavily to the ground, unable to move.
"If you don't speak up, this woman will become your role model."
Liu Qin stared at Wu Shuangxue's corpse and swallowed hard. Liu Jing still said, "I won't talk! Just kill me!" The man nodded, "Fine, I'll grant your wish!" With a palm strike, Liu Jing's vision went black, and her body went limp, revealing Liu Qin behind her.
Liu Qin yelled and turned to run. The man darted after her and grabbed her back.
"You're not going to say anything either? Then let your sister have her way!"
The man raised his hand as if to strike. Liu Qin cried out, "I'll talk! I'll talk! Uncle Qu... he's in the study in the front yard. Go straight along the veranda from here, turn two corners, and he's there. You... you have to spare me!"
The man slowly lowered his hand, a cruel and excited glint in his eyes: "Hmph, you little brat, you have no backbone. Giving you a quick death would be too lenient." With that, he pointed a finger at Liu Qin and vanished.

Liu Qin felt a lightness wash over him, as if floating on clouds. But this pleasurable feeling quickly faded, leaving only the desire to do it again. This desire grew stronger with time, until he couldn't help but groan.
Around midnight, Liu Jing and Wu Shuangxue both woke up unharmed. Liu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, finally confirming that the person was indeed Yue Feng in disguise. At that moment, Wu Shuangxue tugged at Liu Jing's sleeve, gesturing for her to look at the ground.
When Liu Jing looked down at the ground, she was shocked to see Liu Qin with her eyes rolled back, foaming at the mouth, and convulsing uncontrollably. She was already unconscious.
"Go find Yue..." Liu Jing hadn't finished her sentence when she suddenly saw Wu Shuangxue's eyes and couldn't help but shiver.
"Do you remember how you agreed to his request?" Wu Shuangxue stared at Liu Jing.
Liu Jing hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Whatever the consequences, I will take full responsibility."
"So what should you do next?"
Liu Jing gritted her teeth: "Take Qin'er and go find my father. Tell him everything that happened here."
Wu Shuangxue hummed in agreement, and Liu Jing carried Liu Qin on her back. The three of them hurriedly went to the study in the front yard. Liu Zhengfeng was discussing music with Qu Yang. Master Mo was also there. When he saw the three of them, he was surprised and hurriedly asked what had happened.
Liu Jing told the truth. Liu Zhengfeng checked on Liu Qin's condition while listening to Liu Jing's story. The more he listened, the angrier he became. Suddenly, he stretched out his palm and smashed a low table with a crack.
"Why bother saving such a worthless son! Let him fend for himself!"
Liu Zhengfeng apologized to Qu Yang, his face full of shame, and was about to leave. Qu Yang quickly stopped him.
"Young people are not strong-willed and have not experienced any setbacks. It's inevitable that they would make a fool of themselves when suddenly faced with such a situation. Fortunately, that person seemed to think highly of himself and did not kill his nephew and niece. But why didn't he come to the study?"
Liu Zhengfeng angrily said, "Nephew, what a load of rubbish! This kid almost dragged you down, Brother Liu. I really wish I could kill him with one blow!" But despite saying that, he couldn't bring himself to do it and could only sit there sulking.
Master Mo said coldly, "Junior brother, after this matter is over, hand over your precious son to me. In less than three years, I will be able to change his weak nature."
