Chapter 1495: Flower Pinching Finger

“Teaching martial arts, and only one type?” Master Ciyun looked at Lin Feng with some skepticism. She was somewhat doubtful of him keeping his promise. Yet, her longing for freedom compelled her to ask, “What kind of martial arts do you want me to teach?”

Lin Feng did not immediately answer Master Ciyun but looked at Tang Rou beside him with gentle eyes.

Tang Rou felt something and also smiled at Lin Feng… Throughout the journey, Tang Rou never asked Lin Feng what martial arts he wanted her to learn from Master Ciyun. It’s not that she wasn’t curious; she just knew that Lin Feng would choose the most suitable cultivation technique for her, without her worrying about it!

Lin Feng had indeed thought it through for Tang Rou. Tang Rou was a gentle-natured girl. Even though she was now an expert in the Innate Realm, she rarely fought with others, let alone engaged in life-and-death battles. Spending too much effort to learn those cruel combat martial arts was entirely useless for Tang Rou, and Lin Feng didn’t want to disturb Tang Rou’s thoughts…

Therefore, Lin Feng’s idea was to let Tang Rou learn two types of martial arts adequate for self-defense. One was the Tai Chi Fist he taught her, and as for the second, Lin Feng originally wanted to teach Tang Rou the Innate Unity Finger Technique. This technique was powerful in long-range attacks and had strong close-defense concealment. It indeed suited Tang Rou.

However, after probing the innate vitality in Tang Rou’s body, Lin Feng found that the innate vitality she cultivated through Buddhist martial arts differed slightly from his Taoism martial arts’ innate vitality. Although, with Lin Feng’s knowledge, he couldn’t find the specific difference between the two innate vitalities, he still decided not to let Tang Rou learn the Innate Unity Finger Technique and instead study another more suitable finger technique, which was the Buddhist Picking Flower Finger!

It was the same finger technique Master Ciyun used to injure Zhou Yang and almost instantaneously defeat Lu Zhanpeng outside the Longfeng Martial Hall!

“Picking Flower Finger!” Lin Feng shifted his gaze from Tang Rou to Master Ciyun and said calmly.

“Picking Flower Finger?! You’re dreaming!” Master Ciyun’s face, originally as placid as an ancient well, changed instantly upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. She glared at Lin Feng with a particularly unpleasant expression, and said, “The Picking Flower Finger is the most profound martial arts preserved by our Wunian Nunnery. How could it be casually taught?!”

“I’m dreaming?” Lin Feng’s lips curled slightly as he said calmly, “Master Ciyun, are you sure you are thinking clearly right now?”

“What do you mean?” Master Ciyun’s voice cooled as she stared at Lin Feng and said, “If I am unwilling to do something, could you possibly force me to do it?!”

“Heh heh… Master, Master, you seem to have forgotten that you’re still a captive!” Lin Feng glared at Master Ciyun, a mocking expression on his face, “In your heart, you certainly think I’m just a small leader of a mediocre force like the Hong Sect. You assume there’s no need to fear me given your esteemed status as the Master of Wunian Nunnery, thinking that you just need to wait for your Sect Leader to send people to rescue you… Isn’t that right?”

Master Ciyun was taken aback, “Is that not so?”

“Of course, it’s not like that…” Lin Feng chuckled and said to Master Ciyun, “Don’t forget, I studied martial arts from the Tianji Sect!”

Being someone who learned martial arts from the Tianji Sect, Lin Feng was naturally a person of the Tianji Sect. In the eyes of Wunian Nunnery, the Tianji Sect isn’t a small entity that can be easily trifled with, not even a force that Wunian Nunnery can contend openly against…

This is a fact Ciyun is well aware of. She even knows that if the Sect Leader knew Lin Feng was backed by the Tianji Sect, they wouldn’t lightly send people to rescue her… This is what Ciyun has been worried about all along. If the Sect Leader doesn’t plan to rescue her, how long will she have to stay in Lin Feng’s Dark Prison, six months? A year? Three years…

Although Master Ciyun understood this point, she did not show any expression of fear at this moment. Instead, she gazed coldly at Lin Feng, asking solemnly, “So what?!”

Lin Feng had sharp eyes. Despite Master Ciyun’s effort to hide her guilty feelings, Lin Feng still saw the insecurity deep in her soul through her somewhat evasive eyes.

“Master Ciyun, don’t you forget, in front of your several sisters, I gambled that you would stay in Jiangzhou if you lost, without specifying how long you would stay in Jiangzhou!” Lin Feng said smilingly, “If people from Wunian Nunnery don’t come to pick you up, and I happen to not mind your small food expenses, then keeping you for ten years is no problem at all… After all, it’s all within the scope of our wager!”

“Are you threatening me?!” Master Ciyun shrieked.

“Humph, what if I am threatening you?!” Lin Feng couldn’t help but snort at Master Ciyun, saying sternly, “Let me tell you, wicked nun, stop putting on an act in front of me. Just for what you’ve done to Tang Rou, I won’t spare you. Do you still have the face to bargain with me? What right do you have to bargain with me?!”

At this moment, Lin Feng was extremely furious, unable to hold back releasing the special pressure of an Innate mid-stage expert upon Master Ciyun, as an overwhelming, shapeless momentum continued to press towards Master Ciyun…

Caught off guard, Master Ciyun was rattled by Lin Feng’s momentum of the same realm, her face turning as white as sheet instantly!

“Mid-stage, it’s only been a few days, and you’ve already entered the Innate mid-stage?!” Master Ciyun looked at Lin Feng in astonishment, finding it hard to believe… She wasn’t able to beat Lin Feng even at the early stage, so if Lin Feng entered the mid-stage, would she still have the necessity to make a move before Lin Feng?!

“Hmm, I carelessly let you find out… I’m actually quite low-profile… If you can’t accept it, you could pretend you didn’t notice!” Lin Feng withdrew his momentum and said with a mischievous smile while looking at Master Ciyun.

Finally, Master Ciyun put away her superiority over Lin Feng and began to seriously scrutinize Lin Feng, falling into deep thought.

After a full minute, Master Ciyun asked in a solemn tone, “If I taught Tang Rou the Picking Flower Finger, would you really release me as promised?!”

Lin Feng glanced at Tang Rou, then said calmly, “I keep my word… However, I advise you not to try any tricks. If I find out you did something to Tang Rou, I’ll make your death very unpleasant… extremely unpleasant!”

Saying this, Lin Feng intentionally or unintentionally glanced over Master Ciyun a couple of times before smirking coldly and said, “Master Ciyun has such profound cultivation, surely this body of yours remains quite young… heh heh…”

Master Ciyun’s face changed completely, although Lin Feng didn’t finish his sentence, she could hear the extreme malice in Lin Feng’s words, a threat she didn’t even want to imagine.

“Lin Feng, do you resent people of the Buddhist sects that much?!” Master Ciyun unwillingly stared at Lin Feng and questioned him.
