Chapter 28 – Preferential Treatment (2)
"Ah, those are secondhand items from inner disciples or core disciples that have already mastered those techniques. They usually leave comments and tips in their manuals and sell them to other outer disciples at a high price."
Qi Hong explained the current trend of this sect. When an outer disciple managed to get promoted into an inner disciple, they often shared their knowledge to juniors or their friends how they became successful. Or, after someone mastered every technique that these manuals had to offer, they always wrote their understanding, tips, and their insight on the books and sold them here.
These secondhand manuals were popular among new disciples as the guides provided by graduated seniors were helpful. The difficult techniques that usually took a year to master only required a few months with these seniors' annotations.
However, these secondhand books were more expensive than a brand new copy from the contribution hall or the sect library. An outer disciple technique book cost about 100 to 500 contribution points, but these seniors sold them 5 to 10 times the market price. If the book was from a core disciple, the price tag would be more expensive.
On the contrary, used consumable items were a lot cheaper than a complete item provided by the sect. The refined Yang stones in the list were an example.
"I get the gist of it. So those secondhand manuals are like items from celebrities."
"Celebrities? Well, you can say that. Everyone wants to copy successful people."
"By the way, what are the skills that you want me to learn? You said that there are 10 must-learn skills or some sort."
"Oh, that? For you, some of them might be incompatible since most of them are tailored for female cultivators. There are still useful skills, though."
Qi Hong navigated the menu and picked four brand new manuals for him.
Frost Turtle Breathing Technique
Yin Qi Application Guidebook
Body Cleansing Technique
The first three books looked decent. However, Miaomiao's expression distorted, cringed, when he read the last technique's majestic and glorious name.
.
.
.
Stripper Swordsmanship
.
.
.
Miaomiao's brain reacted to the iconic name in an instant. A scene where he wore two-piece bikinis and holding a sword appeared in his mind. Then, he fought his opponents by pole-dancing and stripping his remaining clothes.
Miaomiao coughed as he almost vomited blood. His imagination was traumatized-inducing to the point that he almost screamed, "WTF, brain!?"
"Excuse me!? Stripper Swordsmanship!? Am I supposed to strip my clothes while I'm fighting?"
Seeing Miaomiao's reaction, Qi Hong burst into laughter, "AHAHAHAHA!!"
"Don't laugh! What the hell is this technique!?"
"Please, young master Xu. You've misunderstood," Qi Hong wiped her tear, "This swordsmanship technique focuses on disarming or destroying your opponent's equipment and weapons. You don't have to strip your cloth while fighting."
Miaomiao was relieved. If he had to become a stripper to use this technique, he rather died.
Looking at Miaomiao's expression, Qi Hong couldn't stop laughing.
"Is my face that funny?"
"Hahaha!! I'm sorry. You remind me when I was still an outer disciple. I had the same reaction back then, but … AHAHAHA!!"
"…"
…
After laughing enough, Qi Hong explained her reasons behind these techniques.
Frost Turtle Breathing Technique contained two major skills that Yin cultivators found them useful. One was Frost Physique, which could improve a cultivator's resistance against cold temperature. As female cultivators of this sect prioritized in Yin skills, which contained cold attributes, this skill synergized with their specialties.
The second sub-technique, the breathing, could improve the Yin Qi circulation of the practitioners. As the breathing would absorb Yin Qi in the air, cultivators who had mastered this technique could absorb Yin Qi from the surroundings without having to sit still and concentrate. Zheng Liqin inhaling energy from a refined Yin stone to increase her cultivation base was an example of this skill usefulness.
As for Yin Qi Application Guidebook was as its name. It contained step-by-step basic circulation techniques for those who had never sensed Qi flow before. Not only it was easy to understand, but the guide was also useful for intermediate disciples with 2nd stage cultivation base as well. Many outer disciples still carried a copy of this book around in their spatial ring as they still used it as a reference when they ran into a cultivation problem.
Body Cleansing Technique was also self-explanatory. It was a Qi circulation technique that could be used to force out toxic, poison, or impurity from a cultivator's body. It was a must-learn technique if one wanted to become a legit cultivator.
And lastly, the Stripper Swordsmanship…
"Now, for the stripper sword techniques, I think I should demonstrate it for you. Or else, you will have a bad impression on it."
Qi Hong borrowed a wooden sword from the contribution hall staff. Then, she displayed her sword dance.
The sword movements were not fast, but they were not slow either. Qi Hong's sword was graceful and smooth like water flow. Combining her sword skill with her red qipao and her thick thighs, Qi Hong's sword dance captivated Miaomiao and other onlookers.
The elder noticed Miaomiao's gaze. Because of the previous foreplay, she had a tingling urge to tease him, wanting to pay back for his rude molestation.
Qi Hong's feet moved faster. She intentionally made some errors, so her qipao could flutter. She ended up flashing her red G-string panties and her white butt for Miaomiao to see.
Even though Qi Hong was over 50-year-old, her appearance was that of a young maiden in her early 20s. The smooth skin and her youthful pretty face enchanted Miaomiao to the point that he began drooling.
Cuckoo!
A divine chicken in Miaomiao's pants had risen. This type of seduction dance was more stimulating than seeing a naked girl.
Qi Hong stopped her sword technique mid-way while Miaomiao's excitement was at his peak.
"How's that, young master?"
Because of her question, several onlookers and staff turned toward Miaomiao. And then, some of the girls noticed Miaomiao's pitched tent.
There were still several Virgin Yin School disciples in the contribution hall. As soon as they saw a man's erected crotch, they screamed and ran away. On the other hand, dual cultivators licked their lips and gazed at his hidden rooster with desire. These naughty girls were planning to approach him after this.
"Very… beautiful. I mean, the sword technique is quite profound."
"Of course," Qi Hong returned the wooden sword to the staff and stood next to Miaomiao. However, her hand slipped into his pant and seized the meat pole, "This sword technique is specialized in defense. With the combination of Yin arts, full-strength attacks from someone in the same cultivation base will still be ineffective against this sword skill."
The elder's action didn't escape the eyes of a dozen onlookers and the hall staff. As the remaining people were either workers or dual cultivators, they grinned and observed the show.
Qi Hong's hand didn't stop rubbing Miaomiao's mushroom as she mumbled, "Unfortunately, secondhand books of this skill are too expensive. I suggest that you should buy a brand new set, and I'll coach you in private. By the way, has you buy a phone? I'll give you my MeChat ID, so you can text me whenever you have questions about those techniques."
"Ugh, Err, s-senior, y-your hand."
"Brand new books cost only 400 CP, and a jade phone is only 1,000CP. You have a lot of points left, so you should be able to exchange for many secondhand refined stones. Still, I suggest that you should take missions from the sect and increase your contribution points normally. Or else, many disciples will gossip that you're relying on your mother and contribute nothing to the sect."
Qi Hong's soft cold hand massaged his mushroom's tip. Slippery transparent juice leaked out from it, and her hand rubbed the liquid all over the pole. The speed got faster.
"A-A-Au, s-se-nior, ai-I-I'm about to!"
"Even so, I have a few tips for you. Most of our sect's missions are prostitution and man-hunting, so you can't complete those. But there are trivial jobs that you can do, such as fixing water pipes, repairing the roofs, or room cleaning…"
*SPURT*
Miaomiao reached his limit. His divine chicken puked white liquid.
"Ugh," Miaomiao wanted to cry that Qi Hong bullied him in public. He expected that his pants would be wet and sticky because of this intense ejaculation.
Betraying his expectation, there was no wet or murky feeling coming from his crotch area. Instead, his pants and underwear were still dry.
As Qi Hong was admiring Miaomiao's astonished and confused expression, she whispered to him, "I didn't use any Qi technique, so you didn't lose a single strand of yang Qi. Also, I've stored your semen in my spatial ring, so you don't have to worry about it."
The elder pulled her hand from Miaomiao's pants and licked the pre-cum juice.
Looking at Qi Hong's seduction, Miaomiao's mushroom got energetic again. But this time, he had an inspiration.
Miaomiao turned to the bulletin board where the hall placed their requests.
.

Task: Need someone to clean bloodstain and dead bodies on the B1 floor. If you can repair the stone walls, I'll give you extra rewards.
Reward: 1,000 CP + EXTRA.
.
Requester: Core Disciple Xiong Zhenzhen

.
Requester: Elder Long Meifang
Task: Fetch me boys. Preferably, age between 12 and 15. Don't ask me what I'll do with them.
Reward: 1,000 CP each.
.
These requests were like quests from adventurer guilds in Japanese novels. Everyone could post a request and give rewards to the freelancers. Even though some of the quests seemed disturbing, Miaomiao didn't care.
"Say, senior."
"Yeah?"
"Can I post my request in this contribution hall?"
"Yes, you can."
"Then, can I sell my body to my fellow outer disciples?"
"You can offer services here, so yes, you can-Wait, what!?"
Qi Hong's eyes opened a little. She was surprised by Miaomiao's idea. Although she was sure that many girls here would pay a lump sum to bed Miaomiao, she didn't expect him to take the initiative and asked her.
"Nice! Then, senior, could you help me post a request on that bulletin board. I'll tell you the content."
