"Such talent really shouldn't be wasted. Since your Wang Clan is a clan of ministers and general, you should leave this young lass with me. In the future, she might become an invaluable expert to your clan!" the Demonic Emperor Old Man said.

"Teacher, don't worry. Feel free to teach her as you please. I'll explain everything to my mother," Wang Chong replied.

It wasn't easy to find someone who could curb his little sister. Wang Chong was no samaritan, so his little sister was truly foolish to have thought that she could have depended on him to talk his teacher out of this.

It was already a huge kindness on his part that he didn't get his teacher to intensify her training.

"Un."

The Demonic Emperor Old Man nodded before looking at Wang Chong worriedly.

"I don't know whether it's a right decision for me to impart to you the Little Yinyang Art—your progress is too fast. I thought that since you weren't a member of the martial world, your cultivation wouldn't progress too fast. To think that being in the military would actually augment your cultivation instead. This ultimate technique might be powerful, but it has a fatal flaw.

"This also played an important reason as to why I was done in by that unfilial disciple back then. Chong-er, you must remember that you mustn't rush with the Little Yinyang Art. If possible, it would be best for you to slow things down so as to prevent any future problems."

"Teacher, rest assured. I know what I must do," Wang Chong chuckled, thinking nothing much of it.

The reason why he was interested in the 《Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art》 was because it was the quickest way to raise one's cultivation. As for the side effects he would incur due to it...

If he could change Great Tang's fate and prevent that catastrophe, what did those side effects count as?

The Demonic Emperor Old Man didn't say anything, but he clearly saw the nonchalance in Wang Chong's eyes. Knowing that there was nothing he could say that would change the young man's mind, he could only sigh.

He was the one who had imparted the Little Yinyang Art to Wang Chong, so he was the origin of this all. All he could do now was to see if he could find a solution to resolving the flaws of both the Little Yinyang Art and the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art.

Let's hope I can succeed! …, the Demonic Emperor Old Man thought, looking into the brilliant yellow sky.

Having lived in the martial world for too long, he was accustomed to schemes and vicious battles. Suddenly coming into contact with the Great Tang royal court and an ordinary worldly life with the Wang Clan, he suddenly found the tension he had accumulated over his life loosening rapidly.

There were no schemes here, no one knew that he was the Demonic Emperor Old Man, and no one feared him like the plague. All there was here was this simple and peaceful life.

Teaching a decently talented disciple; cultivating at a spirit vein in the depths of a mountain where no one knew him; facing the assaults of a young lass from time to time while bickering with her everyday, forcing her to work diligently in her cultivation.

When he was free, he could even brew a cup of fragrant tea, have some braised beef with sesame seeds scattered on it, and take a few sips of wine.

The peaceful life had brought unprecedented calm to his soul as well, and he found himself completely relaxed.

The Demonic Emperor Old Man was extremely fond of the current life he had.

And he really loved the two students he had accepted in his declining years, as well. They bore no malice or schemes toward him. Well, the lass did attack him from time to time, but that was due to her fervent wish to get off the mountain.
