Regarding Ye Wushuang’s method for overcoming the heavenly tribulation, it wasn’t just others who were curious; even Sect Master Liu Ning was very interested.
However, he knew that the Divine Dragon Empress had mastered several incredibly powerful Daoist techniques.
So, he guessed in his heart that Ye Wushuang must have learned those few incredibly powerful Daoist techniques from the Divine Dragon Empress, which was how he managed to survive this heavenly tribulation.
This made Sect Master Liu Ning feel a bit indignant and resentful.
“Didn’t we agree not to teach these to just anyone? How could you teach them so easily?”
“Sure enough, I, the master, am not as close to you as your junior disciple!”
“No way, I want to learn those Dao techniques too! How can a master lose to their own disciple!”
He had been looking forward to Ye Wushuang’s ‘Jie’ character secret and ‘Lie’ character secret for a long time.
He hadn’t practiced them before simply because the Divine Dragon Empire was too weak.
He was afraid that prematurely exposing the existence of the ‘Jie’ and ‘Lie’ secrets would bring unforeseen disaster to the Divine Dragon Empire.
But things were different now. Now, with Liu Ningxian in the Divine Dragon Empire, and he himself having reached the Supreme Realm, plus Ye Wushuang’s realm had also reached the Immortal King Realm.
From a certain perspective, their Divine Dragon Empire now had the ability to protect itself.
Now, even if the secret techniques were accidentally leaked, he had the capability to protect them.
So, upon returning to Ye Wushuang’s palace, Sect Master Liu Ning didn’t hesitate to speak up:
“Your Majesty, I would also like to practice those Dao techniques!”
“Ah?”
At that moment, the Divine Dragon Empress was a bit confused and didn’t know what Sect Master Liu Ning was talking about.
Because such matters weren’t something agreed upon between the Divine Dragon Empress and Sect Master Liu Ning; they were agreed upon by Ye Wushuang.
So, the Divine Dragon Empress knew very little about it.
Seeing the confused look in the Divine Dragon Empress’s eyes, Sect Master Liu Ning immediately became anxious.
“I meant the ones we discussed before, the Dao techniques Wu Shuang used!”
“You don’t think I don’t know that Wu Shuang used those incredibly powerful techniques to get through this heavenly tribulation, do you?”
“Or are you saying you only plan to teach Wu Shuang and have forgotten about me, your master?”
At this moment, Sect Master Liu Ning’s eyes were filled with deep resentment. He felt that the Divine Dragon Empress, his disciple, might truly not care about him, her master, anymore.
He thought her heart probably only held Ye Wushuang now, which was why she reacted this way.
Hearing Sect Master Liu Ning’s words, the Divine Dragon Empress finally realized what he meant, albeit belatedly.
Then, she spoke a bit hesitantly:
“Oh, those Dao techniques? Let me think for a moment…”
If the Divine Dragon Empress knew all the Dao techniques, she naturally wouldn’t hesitate at all and would directly teach them to Sect Master Liu Ning.
But she didn’t know all of them! The only one she knew was the ‘Lie’ character secret.
Moreover, she hadn’t fully comprehended even that ‘Lie’ character secret. If she were to teach it, the pressure on her would be immense.
Regarding this matter, it was still up to Ye Wushuang to make the decision.
The teaching itself still needed to be done by Ye Wushuang.
So, the Divine Dragon Empress felt she needed to discuss this with Ye Wushuang.
Seeing this, Sect Master Liu Ning became quite dissatisfied.
He felt that his status as the master was plummeting drastically.
Now, even for learning Dao techniques, his precious disciple had to consult his other precious disciple.
It felt very much like the two of them were a family, while he, the master, had become the outsider.
Thinking this, Sect Master Liu Ning grumbled indignantly.
“You two are thick as thieves! Completely thick as thieves!”
“If you two don’t become Dao companions, I’ll break both your legs!”
Unaware of Sect Master Liu Ning’s indignation, the Divine Dragon Empress found Ye Wushuang and secretly discussed the matter with him.
“This matter of teaching the ‘Lie’ character secret, you discussed it with Sect Master Liu beforehand, right?”
“Ah? Yeah, we did discuss it.”
“He’s come to me now wanting to learn the Dao techniques. You have to help me teach them! If I have to teach them, I’m going to mess up!”
“No problem. Since we’re going to teach, let’s gather all the Supreme Realm experts of our Divine Dragon Empire. If everyone can learn the ‘Lie’ character secret, our empire’s strength will definitely increase significantly!”
Ye Wushuang’s idea was very simple. If all the Supreme Realm experts of the Divine Dragon Empire could learn the ‘Lie’ character secret and master the power of law, then any other Supreme Realm experts thinking of attacking the Divine Dragon Empire would have to think twice.
Even if they couldn’t master the ‘Lie’ secret, learning the ‘Jie’ character secret would also be good.
These two types of law power were more like Dao techniques, so they still had a chance of learning them.
As for the power of confinement, without Ye Wushuang’s foundational understanding of the Cave Heaven realm, it would likely be very difficult to learn.
So, even if he were to teach, Ye Wushuang would only teach these two Dao techniques that had a possibility of being mastered.
Hearing Ye Wushuang’s words, the Divine Dragon Empress couldn’t help but open her mouth wide in surprise.
She had thought Ye Wushuang was only going to teach Sect Master Liu Ning. She hadn’t expected him to want all the Supreme Realm experts of the Divine Dragon Empire to learn it.
This was an immense favor for the Divine Dragon Empire.
She hadn’t expected Ye Wushuang to be so generous towards the Divine Dragon Empire.
For a moment, the Divine Dragon Empress didn’t know what words of gratitude to say.
She just looked at Ye Wushuang tenderly, her eyes conveying countless emotions.
Though some words remained unspoken, she had engraved them deeply in her heart.
Soon, the Supreme Realm experts of the Divine Dragon Empire gathered, four people in total.
Sect Master Liu Ning, Ancestor Liu Shan, Liu Ningxian, and one Supreme Realm expert Ye Wushuang had never met before.
This expert was wrapped in black clothing; even appearing before everyone, he wore a black cloak, as if staying hidden in the shadows.
This Supreme Realm expert was the one who had always followed and protected the Divine Dragon Empress when she was in seclusion before.
He seemed to walk in the darkness, unwilling to show his face, silently dedicating himself to the Divine Dragon Empire.
The Divine Dragon Empress asked him to come because she naturally wanted him to improve further and become stronger.
Ye Wushuang had no objection to this.
During the teaching, he was also exceptionally meticulous.
What Ye Wushuang intended to teach them was the ‘Lie’ character secret.
Relatively speaking, the ‘Lie’ character secret was easier to learn. Once they mastered it, their speed would increase.
And when they reached a certain level of proficiency, they would grasp the power of law.
Hearing such things, these Supreme Realm experts were deeply shaken inside.
If this news were to spread, it would inevitably cause a massive stir across the entire universe.
Because of this, they all decided in their hearts to strictly guard this secret.
At the same time, they studied even more diligently and earnestly.
