<h4>Chapter 898 - Understanding the Nameless Technique</h4>


    Sometimeter, Yuan returned to his room while the others returned to their own training.


    Li Jinxi woke up the following morning with an incredible headache and feeling like she''d been hit by a truck recently.


    ''Am I… still alive…?" She mumbled in a dazed voice.


    It wasn''t clear to her at first, but her memories of yesterday''s training eventually resurfaced.


    ''Ahh… He was really ruthless yesterday… I have never been beaten like that… ever…''Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    A slight smile appeared on her face without her awareness.


    *Knock* *Knock*


    "It''s me. Are you awake?" Yuan''s voice suddenly resounded.


    "Yes,e inside."


    Yuan entered the room the next moment.


    "How are you feeling?" He asked her.


    Li Jinxi turned to look at Yuan and said with a bittersweet smile, "My body hurts like hell…"


    "I might have gone too far for your first session. Sorry."


    "No, I needed that. I have never suffered such a defeat before. It really opened my eyes."


    "Do you wish to continue?" Yuan suddenly asked.


    "Of course." Li Jinxi immediately responded without any hesitation in her voice.


    "You''ll wake up everyday like this, you know?"


    "As long as I can be stronger."


    "..."


    After a moment of silence, Yuan asked, "Why are you so desperate to acquire strength?"


    "You might not believe me, but I really don''t have any motivation— at least I didn''t until very recently. I enjoy fighting and improving myself. It''s as simple as that." She calmly responded.


    "I see… Then what is your motivation now? You have one now, right?"


    Li Jinxi did not immediately answer.


    She slowly got off the bed and stood on her feet despite the pain coursing through her body.


    She then walked to stand in front of Yuan.


    "You''re my motivation now. I want to defeat you."


    Yuan smiled and said, "It''s not going to be easy."


    "I know, but I won''t stop training until I defeat you… no matter how long it''ll take."


    And she continued, "Go wait for me in the training area. I will be there in a bit."


    "You want to train with your body like that? That''s reckless."


    "I can handle it," she said.


    However, Yuan shook his head and said, "Go soak in some medicine first. I''ll meet you in the training area in a few hours."


    "Okay…"


    While Li Jinxi went to soak in medicine, Yuan returned to his own room.


    He then took a seat on the floor in the lotus position and took a deep breath.


    ''Even though they are different techniques, they function almost the same. I wonder if I will be able to control that golden aura if I deepen my understanding with Li Jinxi''s nameless technique?''


    In just a few moments, a red aura began appearing around Yuan''s body.


    Although he''d learned Li Jinxi''s nameless technique, he doesn''t have any intentions to use it. After all, he was only doing this to gain a better understanding for the technique.


    Furthermore, his golden aura was vastly superior to the nameless technique.


    ''I have only absorbed two thousand years worth of Tian Chenyu''s memories right now, but there is nothing about the golden aura in these memories. Just how long did Tian Chenyu live? When does he learn to use the golden aura?''


    ''However, there''s no need to be impatient. I have already managed to activate it once. I will eventually be able to control it.''


    Yuan would continue to study the nameless technique for the next few hours until he met up with Li Jinxi in the training area, where he would proceed to beat her until she was at the verge of death.


    "How long are you two going to train like this?" Meixiu asked him as she washed Li Jinxi''s bloody figure.


    "I''m not sure, but it''ll probably be for a while. You don''t have to clean her if you don''t want to. I can do it by myself. You''re probably better off using this time to train yourself, after all." Yuan responded from outside the bathroom.


    "No, I can do this. It doesn''t take that much time, and it''s not like I can let you wash the body of another woman…" Meixiu said with a slightly rosy face.


    Yuan smiled and said, "Don''t worry, I won''t do anything I am not supposed to do to her. I already have you and Lulu, after all."


    The redness on Meixiu''s face immediately deepened, and she spoke, "T-That''s not what I am worried about!"


    Sometimeter, Meixiu left the bathroom with Li Jinxi still unconscious in her arms.


    "Thank you, Meixiu." Yuan said to her as she ced Li Jinxi''s body on the bed.


    "You should go easier on her, Yuan. It feels weird seeing you beating on a youngdy, even if she''s someone like Li Jinxi."


    Yuan chuckled, "I can''t help it. Ordinary training methods won''t work on her. And after realizing how much talent she has, it makes me want to see her full potential."


    Meixiu sighed, "You''ve really changed, Yuan."


    "Huh? What do you mean?"


    "Not long ago, you didn''t even know the difference between a man and a woman. Now look at you. You''re apetent teacher who has trained even an entire family of demon sealers."


    "Your demeanor has also changed. It pained me to even look at you before because you were always depressed, but you''re now brimming with confidence."


    "If Yu Rou could see you now, I doubt she would even recognize you."


    "Yu Rou, huh… Meixiu, this might be a weird question, but who do you prefer? The old me or the new me?" Yuan faced her with a serious look on his face.


    "That''s not a fair question, Yuan. It puts me in an awkward position. It''s not a question that I can answer. However, if I have to be honest, I like how we can talk with each other while being on the same page, something that was not really possible back then. For example, the words ''I love you'' would have a different meaning if I said it to the old you and the current you. Do you understand?"


    Yuan chuckled, "Yes, I understand. I am well aware of how naive I was back then, and I''m sorry for all of the inconveniences it caused you."


    Meixiu shook her head while blushing.


    "Anyways, are you free now?" Yuan suddenly asked her.


    "Besides training, I don''t have anything else—"


    Before she could even finish her sentence, Yuan picked her up and carried her like a princess.


    "Y-Yuan?!"


    "I want to thank you properly for helping me today. Let''s go to your room." Yuan smiled.


    "O-Okay…" Meixiu immediately understood the meaning behind his words and nodded in a bashful manner.
