Chapter 201 The Reappearance of Mystic Secrets
Chapter 201 The Reappearance of Mystic Secrets
Qiu Ziyue and the others went out, and Qi Yuxuan, carrying two babies, also came to the door.
The members of the five major gangs reappeared before them.
These uninvited guests shattered the tranquility, instantly creating a tense atmosphere.
"I don't understand why you guys are so tactless, always spoiling everyone's fun when we're happy."
Qiu Ziyue frowned and said:
"You are all senior figures in the martial arts world. I have let you go many times. Why are you still so stubborn?"
Ying San Niang sneered:
"We'll leave immediately once you hand over the mystical techniques."
Qiu Ziyue's heart sank. She knew these people had long coveted the mystical arts, but she absolutely could not hand them over easily.
She shook her head firmly:
"it's out of the question."
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, a loud voice suddenly rang out:
"Purple Delight, I've come to give you a gift too!"
Everyone was taken aback and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a middle-aged man in official robes slowly walking over.
Qiu Ziyue recognized him at a glance; it was Yang Xingmi.
She exclaimed in surprise, "King Wu! What brings you here?"
Yang Xingmi nodded with a smile:
"Today is the children's 100-day celebration, how could I not come? I also brought a small gift for you."
Yang Xingmi's arrival eased the situation considerably.
The members of the five major gangs were clearly wary of Yang Xingmi and kept quiet for the time being.
"Qiu girl, today is Minglan and Jingyun's 100-day celebration, and I brought a special gift."
Yang Xingmi smiled and gave his subordinate a meaningful look.
A moment later, a servant handed Qiu Ziyue a birdcage.
Qiu Ziyue looked at Yang Xingmi in surprise, her heart filled with gratitude:
"King Wu, you are too kind!"
Yang Xingmi said softly:
“This parrot has been my beloved pet for many years, but seeing how adorable the children are, I feel it deserves a new home.”
"I hope this parrot can bring more joy to the children."
Qiu Ziyue took the birdcage and carefully examined the beautiful parrot.
The parrot seemed to sense the arrival of its new owner, gently fluttering its wings and emitting a clear chirping sound.
"Little master, from now on you will be my little master!"
The parrot suddenly spoke, its voice clear and melodious.
Upon hearing the parrot's voice, Minglan and Jingyun's eyes lit up immediately.
The two children clapped their hands happily, their faces beaming with innocent smiles.
They looked at the parrot with curiosity, as if they had already developed a strong interest in this new friend.
Qiu Ziyue smiled gently and placed the birdcage in front of the children so they could observe the parrots up close.
The parrot seemed to really like its two little owners, constantly wriggling around and occasionally uttering a few amusing remarks.
"Little masters, do you like me?"
The parrot spoke again, its voice sweet and melodious.
Minglan and Jingyun laughed happily and nodded repeatedly.
Looking at the children's happy faces, Qiu Ziyue felt a surge of joy.
Yang Xingmi stood aside, watching all of this with a smile.
He knew that this parrot would become a special companion for the children as they grew up, accompanying them through many happy times.
"Thank you, King Wu, this gift is truly precious," Qiu Ziyue said sincerely.
Yang Xingmi waved his hand:
"You're welcome. I'm very happy to see the children so happy."
At this moment, sunlight streamed into the courtyard, creating a warm and inviting scene.
Yang Xingmi looked at the people from the five major gangs and said to Qiu Ziyue:
"I won't interfere in your affairs today. You should know what to do now."
Qiu Ziyue understood Yang Xingmi's meaning; the implication was that Yang Xingmi wanted him to teach them a lesson.
Yang Xingmi adopted a "turn a blind eye" attitude.
After saying this, Yang Xingmi excused himself, saying he was busy with official business, and left the banquet.
After Yang Xingmi left, Ying Sanniang, Huo Lengxiong, and others from the five major gangs began to act recklessly again.
They surrounded Qiu Ziyue, demanding aggressively that she hand over her mystical techniques.
"Qiu Ziyue, if you don't hand over the mystical techniques today, don't expect us to let you off easily!"
"Ying San Niang said viciously, her eyes gleaming with greed.
Huo Lengxiong also chimed in:
"If you know what's good for you, hand over the stuff, or you'll face the consequences!"
Qiu Ziyue frowned, a surge of anger rising within her.
These people are really pushing their luck, always causing trouble at the worst possible time and disrupting everyone's peace.
"It seems you're going to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. How dare you be so presumptuous in front of the masters from the Valley of Passion and the Valley of Heartbreak?"
Qiu Ziyue said coldly, slowly drawing a jade flute from her hand.
"Since that's the case, then I'll show you what makes you so persistent."
Qiu Ziyue's words carried a hint of threat, and her gaze was as cold as ice, causing everyone present to shiver.
She held the jade flute horizontally in front of her chest, gently stroking its body as if communicating with it.
"I haven't used mystical techniques in a long time. Today is a good day to practice them and give you a demonstration."
Qiu Ziyue's voice was firm and powerful, and a resolute glint flashed in her eyes.
Qiu Ziyue took a deep breath, raised the jade flute to her lips, and began to play softly.
The melodious sound of the flute echoed in the air, as if an invisible force was spreading.
As the sound of the flute began, the surrounding air started to ripple slightly, creating a mysterious atmosphere.
Suddenly, a faint halo emanated from the jade flute, gradually coalescing into a luminous shadow.
The light and shadow gradually solidified, eventually forming a transparent scroll that hovered in front of everyone.
The scroll emitted a soft glow, and the text on it gradually became clearer as it appeared faintly.
The text appeared in an ancient and simple script:
"Congratulations on Minglan and Jingyun's 100th day! May these two precious babies enjoy health, happiness, and longevity in the years to come."
May Heaven and Earth protect her, may the Sun and Moon bless her, may she possess extraordinary intelligence and lofty aspirations. May her path of growth be filled with laughter and joy, free from calamity and hardship, until she reaches adulthood.
Some of the people present whispered these blessings, their hearts filled with beautiful expectations for the children.
Minglan and Jingyun seemed to feel this warmth as well, their faces beaming with innocent smiles.
Everyone applauded, cheering for this beautiful blessing.
Qi Yuxuan stepped forward, looking at Qiu Ziyue with gratitude:
"Thank you, my wife, you have given the children the best gift."
Qiu Ziyue smiled and replied, "It seems my skills have been restored."
At this moment, the parrot also chirped merrily from the side:
"Little master, may you always be happy!"
A warm atmosphere permeated the entire courtyard, as if even the clouds in the sky were sending blessings to the two lovely children.
"This is a mystical secret technique. Do you want it?"
Qiu Ziyue smiled dismissively, "But getting it won't be so easy."
Upon seeing the mystical technique manifest, Ying San Niang, Huo Leng Xiong, and the others widened their eyes, revealing greedy expressions on their faces.
However, Qiu Ziyue didn't give them time to react; she continued:
"I'm giving you one last chance. Leave now and I might spare your lives; otherwise, you'll face the consequences."
Ying San Niang and Huo Leng Xiong exchanged a glance, clearly hesitant.
But their greed made them unwilling to give up easily.
Do you think we're afraid of you?
Huo Lengxiong said through gritted teeth, taking a step forward.
Qiu Ziyue's eyes grew even colder:
"Since you don't know what's good for you, then don't blame me for being impolite."
The jade flute in her hand emitted another clear and melodious sound, accompanied by a burst of light, and the surrounding space seemed to distort.
