Volume 1: Peaceful Childhood Chapter 44: Being a Guest

  Suddenly, Yun Qingran's eyes lit up as if she had thought of something and quickly ran into the dedicated cultivation room, leaving a message for Xing from afar: "Wait until I advance to become a high-level array master before learning with you..."

  "Ah, you're right..." Xing had a joyful expression. Seeing Yun Qingran leave so quickly, she knew it wouldn't take long for her to fully understand that formation. Soon, she could start her teaching plan. She must cultivate Yun Qingran into an all-around talented beauty, completing her super cultivation plan.

  But in just a moment, Xing's face, which had been smiling and joyful, suddenly fell. A high-level array master not only needs to understand at least one high-level array, but more importantly, they must be able to set up a high-level array independently. However, Yun Qingran's cultivation was still insufficient, and she could only be considered a quasi-high-level array master if she could only understand but not set up an array. Ah, she had just broken through not long ago, and it would be too early for her next breakthrough... Xing gritted her teeth as she looked in the direction of Yun Qingran's practice room. She had been deceived by that woman.

  Yun Qingran was drawing something on the ground, the spacious circular floor was filled with symbols and formulas drawn with black charcoal. She would frown slightly for a moment, then a faint smile would appear at the corner of her mouth.

  Time flies fastest when one is focused. Yun Qingyan had been engrossed in calculations, and it wasn't until the ninth day that she finally figured out the entire formation. Adding on the time spent previously, it had taken her a total of three months and thirteen days, which was almost three times the longest time she had spent studying an intermediate-level formation before. The most difficult intermediate-level formation she had encountered in the past had only taken her a little over a month to master.

  Formation methods are also divided into several levels, with the most basic formation methods at the bottom and decreasing in number as you move up. Since there is a connection between formation methods, once you thoroughly research one level of formation method, learning other formation methods of the same level will become much simpler. Generally, formation method practitioners don't know many, because few people know formation methods, and the passed-down formation method diagrams are all treasured by their owners, so each formation method practitioner knows very few formation methods.

  She had a vast collection of spatial arrays, with all sorts of array diagrams at her disposal. She learned each level of the array one by one, mastering and integrating them before moving on to learn the next level. The saying "a sharp knife doesn't hinder chopping firewood" applied here as well.

  With a faint smile, she lazily stretched her waist, relieving the stiffness in her body from maintaining the same posture for too long. It's great, now that she has become an almost high-level array master, before breaking through to Feng Qu, she can temporarily avoid following those damned etiquette dances of Xing Xue, and instead spend more time learning medicine and alchemy.

  She is now learning both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. Although traditional Chinese medicine is profound, Western medicine also has its strengths. However, after studying traditional Chinese medicine, I realized that the knowledge of Chinese medicine presented by those outside is just the tip of the iceberg, and they can only cure basic diseases, without even touching on the deeper content.

  While studying medicine, she also likes to study various poisons, and recently has been researching those Gu poison, those mysterious things make her very interested.

  During the time when Xing was teaching, after completing the various studies stipulated every day, Yun Qingran used all the remaining time to cultivate. Cultivation has not yet reached a bottleneck period, and now is the time of rapid improvement. As long as she had time, she would cultivate, even during meals or while riding in a car, using her mind for two purposes was as simple as eating and drinking for her.

  The next day was the date on the invitation card sent by Old Master Wang, and Yun Qingyan still wore a traditional light smoke gauze skirt. However, it was no longer pure white, but instead had a white top and a skirt with a faint ink painting at the hem. The cuffs were embroidered with silver thread lotus flowers. A lotus hairpin held up the green silk at her waist, and the rest flowed down her back.

  She carefully gathered everything, and Cloud lightly took out a plain embroidered bag with black lotus flowers, and discreetly packed some small porcelain bottles and jade bottles inside, before heading to the dining hall.

  Yun Qingran was having breakfast in the dining hall when a car arrived outside just as she had eaten half of her meal.

  "Miss, the Wang family's people have come to pick you up." Fu Bo walked into the dining hall at a steady pace, first bowing to everyone present, then walking over to Yun Qingran and speaking softly to her.

  "Oh." Yun Qingyan's movements remained elegant as he spoke, "You go tell them to wait for a moment, I'll finish my breakfast and head out."

  "Well, you're going alone, aren't you?" Cloud Old Master stopped the chopsticks in his hand and said to Cloud Light. Whenever he was discussing serious matters, Cloud Old Master's way of addressing Cloud Light would change.

  "It's okay, Grandpa. Don't you still trust me?" In fact, the invitation was for Yun Qingran and Old Master Yun, but since Old Master Yun knew that the other party mainly wanted to invite Yun Qingran, he called the Wang family after discussing with Yun Qingran and said he wouldn't go, so Yun Qingran went alone.

  This time, Wang Lao Ye Zi's meeting with Yun Qing Ran was very formal. As soon as Yun Qing Ran arrived at the entrance of the villa, he saw that Wang Lei was already waiting in front of the gate. The car stopped directly in front of the villa, and Wang Lei came forward to greet him as soon as it stopped.

  "Miss Yun, Father is already waiting for you in the study. Please come with me." Wang Lei's address to Yun Qingran also became very formal, personally opening the car door for her and then escorting her up to the study on the second floor.

  Mr. Wang's study is very simple and elegant, with all the characteristics of a man of his age, simple, refreshing, collecting a large number of books and various antique-like decorations.

  At this time in the study, apart from Old Man Wang, there was also a man and woman who had been seen last time.

  "It's indeed a hero emerges in youth. Miss Yun, at such a young age, your medical skills are already so impressive, it's truly astonishing!" Old Master Wang came forward to greet her as soon as he saw Yun Qingran.

  Yun lightly and elegantly bowed his head in a traditional courtesy, responding with a smile: "Wang Lao is also a senior figure of the previous generation, and when he was dominating the rivers and lakes, it was also something to be admired."

  "Haha……" Old Master Wang was apparently brought back to his heyday by Yun Qingran's words and burst out laughing, leading her to the small reception room next to the study: "Miss Yun is too kind, come sit here, let me introduce you."

  After Yun Qingran sat down, Old Master Wang sat down in the position next to Yun Qingran, and Wang Lei, who came in afterwards, sat on one side of Old Master Wang. After everyone was seated, a servant brought in tea, arranged it properly, and closed the door before Old Master Wang continued: "This is my eldest son, Wang Lei, whom you already know, and also the current master of the Wang family. Next to him is my second son, Wang Ming, and lastly, this young lady who attended your birthday banquet last time is my youngest daughter, Wang Jia."

  "Oh, Wang Lao's children are indeed young and handsome." Yun Qingran replied simply and politely.

  Looking at the cloud lightly, the obvious guest was distant, Old Master Wang saw that she didn't like this scene, even though her behavior on the way was more elegant and dignified than adults, but deep down she had a proud bone that disliked hypocrisy.
