Yang Mengchen slowly walked over and stood quietly beside Weichi Kong, gazing at the faintly discernible mountains in the distance, allowing his thoughts to roam freely.

After a long while, Weichi Kong reined in his melancholic thoughts, "Jiujiu has come," his eyes still fixed ahead.

"Mm." After instructing the villagers and sending them home, Weichi Kong gave Yang Mengchen a bowl of water, then intentionally or unintentionally tapped the table three times. Mengchen paused for a moment to think and then instantly understood; this scene was almost identical to one from Journey to the West.

"I see you have a refined frame, and your body is light and nimble yet possesses robust Inner Strength. Have you ever considered learning lightness skills, becoming so swift that neither gods nor ghosts could trace your steps?"

Yang Mengchen didn't reply but turned to glance at Weichi Kong.

With eyes clear and bright as the stars and moon in the night sky, Weichi Kong sheepishly touched his nose, "Actually, my master once created a peerless lightness skill called 'Chasing the Moon and Treading on Clouds,' but unfortunately, my junior sister and I only mastered fifty percent of it before we could no longer make any breakthroughs.

To his dying day, it was my master's deep regret that none could inherit this Unique Study;

Once you've mastered fifty percent of 'Chasing the Moon and Treading on Clouds,' you will become as untraceable as I am. Master eighty percent or more, and unless you're facing a martial arts grandmaster, no one will be able to catch you. Master it completely, and you'll be able to utilize its finesse, going anywhere in the world freely;

Do you want to learn it?"

Yang Mengchen remained silent.

Seeing this, Weichi Kong suddenly lowered his voice and pleaded, "Jiujiu, please learn this Unique Study, if only to fulfill my master's last wish, all right?" His face bore a beseeching expression, but inside he sighed with sorrow: Others had knelt and begged him time and again to teach them martial arts, yet he had always disdainfully rejected them.

Now it was his turn to beg Jiujiu, and she remained unmoved. Was this the cycle of karma?

Yang Mengchen was already tempted. The master of traditional Chinese medicine had taught her an improved version of Tai Chi, and her good friend Lan Ling had taught her various Capturing Combat Techniques, but these were useless against ancient top-notch warriors. If she mastered 'Chasing the Moon and Treading on Clouds,' her brothers would no longer have to worry about her.

"If it's to fulfill Grandpa Kong's master's last wish, then I agree," Yang Mengchen nodded, "But..."

Fearing that Yang Mengchen would change her mind, Weichi Kong quickly made a promise, "Whatever you ask for, I will agree."

"Not only must you teach my brothers lightness skills, but you must also teach each of them a Unique Study in martial arts," said Yang Mengchen craftily. "If Grandpa Kong doesn't agree, then I refuse to learn as well."

Weichi Kong hadn't expected Yang Mengchen to propose such conditions; he hesitated.

Teaching the Yang family boys lightness skills and a Unique Study to each of them was no trouble at all, given that he himself knew many Unique Studies. The key issue was that teaching eight people at the same time would be very tiresome, right?

But seeing Jiujiu's resolute attitude, clearly leaving no room for negotiation, and considering that after years of searching, only Jiujiu was the perfect candidate to learn 'Chasing the Moon and Treading on Clouds,' he couldn't bear to give up just like that.

Well, to pass on the Unique Study painstakingly created by his master, he would just accept being a little more tired.

Thinking this, Weichi Kong looked at Yang Mengchen with a somber expression, "Fine! I agree to your terms! But you'll have to cook more delicious food for me in the future!"

Yang Mengchen nodded with a smile, "Deal!" As long as her brothers could learn lightness skills and Unique Studies to protect themselves, she was willing to do anything.

Afterward, Weichi Kong began to teach Yang Mengchen the Technique Mantras of 'Chasing the Moon and Treading on Clouds.' He then had her running and jumping on the ground, and later on the big stones by the riverbank, where a misstep would send her into the river, dampening her shoes and the hem of her skirt.

Luckily, after consuming the Exotic Fruit, Mengchen learned with double the efficiency. Gradually, she no longer stepped into the river and could leap at least three meters in a single bound.
