Chapter 482 Martial Arts Recorded in Medical Classics
Paisley was adopted by Cody.
Cody had trained her in martial arts and taught her since she was young. She didn't dare disobey Cody's arrangements.
She knew this day would come.
She just didn't expect it to come so soon.
Cody leaned back in his chair in the courtyard, taking a deep breath. "Twenty years ago, when I was searching for medicinal herbs, I encountered someone from the Bennett family. His name was Gerald Rivera. We fought over a rare herb, and he used a special technique..."
Cody fell into his memories.
Thinking back to that battle from twenty years ago.
Even after twenty years had passed, he still remembered it clearly.
"Tenfold Tranquil Palms - that technique was terrifying. Fighting him, I almost died. For twenty years, I've been thinking about it, but I still haven't figured out how to counter it."
Hearing this, Paisley couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, you want me to marry into the Rivera family for two reasons - first, to win over the Rivera family so they'll side with the Bennett family at the conference in a few months, and second, to use this chance to get inside the Rivera family and steal the Tenfold Tranquil Palms?"
Cody nodded slightly.
"It's best if we can win them over. But if we can't, and the Rivera family becomes enemies with the Bennett family, they'll be a dangerous opponent. As they say, know yourself and know your enemy, and you'll win every battle. Only by getting the Tenfold Tranquil Palms can we find a way to counter it."
"Yes, I understand." Paisley nodded.
Cody waved his hand slightly and said, "You've been working hard lately. Go rest."
"Grandpa, I'll go now."
Paisley nodded, said goodbye to Cody, then turned and left.
Sunset City.
Larry went straight to sleep when he got back, sleeping until evening.
When he got up and came downstairs.
Chloe had already arrived. She was sitting with Esmeralda, chatting about cultivation insights.
Although Chloe had third-level Qi, she only had a basic understanding of cultivation, just like Esmeralda - both were beginners, or maybe not even that.
Seeing Larry come down, Chloe immediately stood up, her pretty face showing a bright smile as she sweetly called out, "Honey, you're awake."
Larry nodded and sat down.
Esmeralda looked at him and asked, "Larry, I have some questions about cultivation."
Larry asked, "What questions? Tell me."
Esmeralda shared her doubts.
And Larry patiently explained.
However, he had only recently developed Qi himself and only had a basic understanding of cultivation, so he only explained what he thought was correct.
Chloe listened carefully, nodding from time to time and praising Larry for being right.
Tonight, Chloe didn't go back to the Lewis family.
Larry had wanted her to go back, but she insisted on staying.
She even wanted to sleep in the same room as Larry.
Esmeralda knew that the two had been married before. Although they were divorced, it was their business, so she didn't interfere and went to bed early.
Second floor, Larry's room.
Larry sat at his desk, holding the lower volume of the Medical Classic, reading carefully.
The lower volume of the Medical Classic mainly recorded the use of the Against Heaven 81 Needles, but at the very end, it also recorded a martial arts technique.
Larry had only skimmed through it before and hadn't studied it carefully.
Now, he planned to study it properly.
Because Qi was the foundation, but martial arts was the key.
Chloe came out after her shower.
She was only wearing a bath towel, covering the important parts. Her fair arms and neck were exposed, and she held a towel in her hand, rubbing her hair.
Seeing Larry reading, she walked over and glanced at the book.
"Honey, have you figured out the martial arts recorded in the Medical Classic?"
Larry put down the book, looked at Chloe, and asked, "You've been with Grandpa all this time. He's read this Medical Classic, right?"
"Yes."
Chloe didn't deny it and nodded. "He has read it, but Grandpa said this book is only useful to you. It's useless for others because they don't have the Against Heaven 81 Needles."
Mentioning the Against Heaven 81 Needles, Chloe couldn't help but laugh. "I was so silly before. I actually used your Against Heaven 81 Needles to hang my underwear."
"What else did Grandpa tell you?"
Chloe thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa specifically mentioned the martial arts recorded in the Medical Classic. He said this technique is called Adamantine Invincibility Technique. Once mastered, you become invulnerable to weapons. However, it's very difficult to master and requires the upper volume of the Medical Classic as support."
"I remember at Maple Grove Mansion, when someone tried to stab you with a knife and couldn't pierce your skin, you said you were wearing clothes made of special material. But you actually used medicine to change your body's cell structure."
Thinking about this, Chloe felt she had been so silly before.
Larry looked at the lower volume, realizing this was a defensive martial arts technique.
He hadn't figured out exactly how to practice it yet.
Richard was a martial arts genius who was also skilled in medicine. Since he had read it, he must have told Chloe.
He looked at Chloe, waiting for her to continue.
Chloe smiled and continued, "Grandpa said that practicing this technique requires one key thing - first, you need to open all the meridians in your body, let Qi flow throughout your body, and form a protective shield on the body's surface, creating an iron wall. When fully mastered, you can even form a three-foot air wall, truly becoming invulnerable."
That was all Chloe knew.
She told Larry everything Richard had told her, word for word.
Larry listened carefully.
After listening, he looked at the book again.
Trying to understand it step by step.
He immersed himself in this amazing technique.
Chloe lay on the bed, waiting for a long time, but Larry still didn't come to sleep.
She was so sleepy that she yawned and called out, "Honey, stop reading. Let's sleep first. You can read more tomorrow morning."
Larry put down the book, turned to look at Chloe lying on the bed, her whole body covered by the blanket with only her little head sticking out. He shook his head slightly and said, "You sleep first. I'll read and think a bit more."
"Honey, come here." Chloe stretched out her fair arm, beckoning to Larry, her words teasing.
Larry smiled faintly.
He wasn't tempted. He ignored Chloe, picked up the Medical Classic, and continued reading.
Chloe found it boring too, stopped trying to seduce him, turned over, and went to sleep.
At the same time.
VitaGen Medical, top floor conference room.
Many people had gathered in the conference room.
There was Cormac, there was Lachlan.
Even Alfonso and Dr. C were there.
Besides them, there were more than a dozen others.
But the leader was a girl who looked only eighteen or nineteen years old.
She had changed her outfit, wearing black tight leather armor. Despite her young age, she had a great figure, showing off her sexy curves.
Her golden hair fell over her shoulders.
Her beautiful face carried a cold, superior air, giving people a feeling of being kept at a distance.
She was Megan.
Everyone in the conference room looked at Megan sitting in the head seat.
Megan's knuckles lightly tapped on the table.
The rhythmic sound echoed in the conference room.
Megan suddenly stopped tapping and looked at Dr. C, saying, "Dr. C, you go first."
Dr. C finally spoke, "Last time, to destroy evidence, Alistair activated the self-destruct program. All the research bases built over the years were destroyed. However, all the research data from these years is in my hands. The problem is, the country is now very strict with inspections. Without Legion of Flame Surge as cover, we can't continue the research."
Megan said in a commanding tone, "Then go abroad. In any case, the research must continue as soon as possible, and we need substantial breakthroughs in the shortest time possible."
"Also..."
She glanced at Cormac, Lachlan, and the others, ordering, "Within three days, take out all the clinics on Medical Street. From now on, Medical Street will only have Silvermoon Apothecary."
"At the same time, suppress and acquire all pharmaceutical companies in Sunset City. The result I want is for VitaGen Medical to be the only one in Summer Nation. The process doesn't matter. Do you understand?"
She looked coldly at everyone in the conference room.
"Understood."
Everyone spoke in unison.
