I am the villain in the book

Taking Ah Chun as a disciple wasn't just a spur-of-the-moment decision for Wei Changtian.

Since this little girl had such talent for cultivation, and he was planning to focus on nurturing her, the previous "master-servant relationship" between them seemed somewhat restrictive.

And Wei Changtian couldn't possibly develop a "romantic relationship" with Ah Chun.

Therefore, a "master-disciple relationship" was the best choice.

In the following two days, he truly took on the responsibility of a "master", and began to teach Ah Chun the methods of cultivation.

In reality, starting cultivation at the age of nine was already considered very late.

In this world, if one intended to walk the path of cultivation and martial arts, generally they would attempt to open their meridians around the age of five.

A sixth-rank martial artist who had achieved "internal force emission" would inject internal force into the child's meridians, essentially using external force to break through the innate shackles.

Of course, this process wasn't guaranteed to succeed for everyone.

Eight main meridians, fifty-six secondary meridians, a total of sixty-four meridians.

As long as all eight main meridians were opened, it meant that the person could embark on the path of cultivation, a proportion that accounted for about thirty to forty percent of the people in the world.

And how many of the remaining fifty-six secondary meridians could be opened concerned the upper limit of the cultivator.

Those who opened less than thirty meridians had lower-grade talent, and without a great opportunity, they would only be able to stop at the sixth-rank realm for their entire lives.

Those who opened thirty to fifty meridians had medium-grade talent, and could reach the fourth-rank at most, but in reality, few could achieve that.

Those who opened more than fifty meridians had high-grade talent, and theoretically could reach the second-rank, but ninety-nine percent of the true second-rank experts actually belonged to the last situation—

All sixty-four meridians were opened.

Apart from special physiques like Ah Chun's "Innate Dao Body", this was already the most top-notch talent for cultivation.

Thanks to the excellent genes of Wei Xianzhe and Qin Caizhen, Wei Changtian belonged to this category.

This was why the former owner hardly spent time cultivating, but was still able to enter the seventh-rank realm ahead of most people.

Of course, the pills that were eaten like candy every day, the demon spirit pills that were worn from childhood, etc., were also very important.

In fact, to put it bluntly, with this talent and resources, even a pig might have progressed faster than the former owner...

And if this treatment was given to Ah Chun, who had even better talent and was also very hardworking, then her cultivation speed...

"Huff! Huff! Huff!"

In the forest, Liang Qin was practicing the basic forms of the "Returning Dust Saber" with one slash after another, while Wei Changtian watched from the side, occasionally pointing out the areas she needed to pay attention to.

Ah Chun, on the other hand, was sitting cross-legged not far away, carefully sensing the location of her dantian.

This process was called "Seeking the Mansion", and it was the first step into the path of cultivation after opening the meridians.

Only by sensing the dantian could one guide the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into it, and then transform it into internal force for one's own use.

This matter was simple yet not simple, but it couldn't be considered too difficult either, and most people could do it in ten days at most.

However, Ah Chun only took ten minutes.

...

"Qin'er, your wrist should be relaxed when you draw your saber, but your fingers should be strong."

"You must concentrate the power on any point on the blade..."

Just as Ah Chun completed the task assigned by Wei Changtian and didn't know what to do next, the latter was now holding the Dragon's Roar and "giving a lesson" to Liang Qin.

"If you want to practice the Returning Dust Saber well, focusing power is the most basic thing."

"Only in this way, after this power erupts, will it have great power..."

"Swish!"

As Wei Changtian spoke, he quickly swung his saber.

Although this slash didn't use internal force, the surrounding short grass all fell to the ground around it, lying close to the ground for a long time before standing upright again.

"I see..."

Liang Qin nodded thoughtfully, but her gaze always drifted to the red rope tied to the Dragon's Roar.

She hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Changtian-ge, this red rope... is it a token from some girl? Is it from the girl, Liu Shi?"

"Huh?"

Wei Changtian didn't expect that he was teaching so earnestly here, but Liang Qin was paying attention to this thing, and he couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded.

"Cough, it's not hers, speaking of which you..."

Liang Qin quietly said, "You are willing to tie this rope to the saber and carry it with you day and night, I'm afraid you are sincere to that girl."

"..."

Wei Changtian was speechless for a while, and perfunctorily said a sentence and wanted to change the subject.

"Cough, of course, I'm sincere... Do you still want to practice the saber?"

"Of course, I want to practice."

Liang Qin gave Wei Changtian a resentful look: "But... Changtian-ge, I don't know why, but I feel a little confused in my heart now."

Confused my ass!

Wei Changtian thought to himself that he didn't expect that this Liang Qin was also a big vinegar vat like Lu Jingyao.

If it were Lu Jingyao, he would definitely turn around and leave now.

But he couldn't be so "unfeeling" to Liang Qin, after all, with Liang Zhen's relationship, he would have to rely on the Liang family in Shu Prefecture in the future...

"That what..."

Looking around awkwardly, Wei Changtian wanted to continue to forcibly change the subject, but his gaze happened to fall on Ah Chun, who was standing not far away dumbly.

Good! Finally, I found a reason!

He immediately put on a straight face and sternly shouted at Ah Chun:

"Ah Chun! Why aren't you cultivating? What are you standing there for?!"

"Ah!"

Ah Chun quickly ran over "da da da", and said guiltily: "Master, I, I don't know what to do."

"Didn't I ask you to sense the location of the dantian?!"

"I, I have already sensed it..."

"Hmph! You have already..."

Wei Changtian suddenly froze, and said in disbelief: "What? You have already sensed it?!"

"Yeah."

Ah Chun weakly pointed to her lower abdomen: "It's here..."

Wei Changtian exchanged a glance with Liang Qin, who was equally surprised, and then asked, "Can you guide the breath of exhalation and inhalation into it?"

"I can, but not much..."

Ah Chun seemed very ashamed, and muttered in a low voice: "I can only guide a little bit..."

"..."

Wei Changtian didn't speak now.

To be precise, he didn't know what to say.

She finished the work that people did in ten days in ten minutes?

Good fellow, is this the strength of the pride of heaven?

Is Xiao Feng enjoying this treatment every day?

Damn it!

After a long silence, Wei Changtian finally sighed and took out something from his arms.

Round and translucent, with a mist flowing within.

It was the thirty-year-old demon spirit pill that Xiao Feng had given to Yang Liushi before, and then was taken away by him.

Wei Changtian didn't lack this thing now because he had killed several demons in the capital and a spider in Zhongling County.

"Keep this thing safe, and no matter what you do in the future, even when you sleep, you must wear it day and night, it will help you cultivate."

"I know, thank you, Master."

Ah Chun took the demon spirit pill in a daze, but she didn't know the value of this thing, and she was even blaming herself for making Wei Changtian "angry" just now.

But although she didn't understand, someone next to her did.

Liang Qin looked at the demon spirit pill with her mouth wide open, and she had been shocked for the second time in a short period of time.

First, Ah Chun completed "Seeking the Mansion" in one incense stick, and then Wei Changtian so casually sent out a demon spirit pill containing thirty years of Taoism.

Thirty years!

To obtain this demon spirit pill, at least three hundred years old great demon must be beheaded!!

Liang Qin stared blankly with her eyes wide open, until another demon spirit pill of almost the same size suddenly appeared in front of her.

"Qin'er, this one is for you."
