"I see you won't acknowledge until you face the consequence!" Lu Tianyue said coldly: "If you have nothing to hide, why wouldn't you reveal your identity?"
Chu Mo's smile slowly disappeared, he looked at Lu Tianyue and said: "What does my ability to diagnose your father's health concern have to do with my origin? Also, miss, don't assume that just because you're at the ninth level of the Golden Core Stage, you're invincible in the world. Did your mentor ever tell you that it's not suitable for girls to practice such domineering and masculine techniques? Keep on practicing like you're doing, and in not many years, you'll be just like your tomboy sister, only worse! She's pretending, but you'll make it a reality!"
"You..." Lu Tianyue didn't expect this little swindler to be so brazen. Both of them at the innate realm and yet he had the audacity to spew such nonsense in front of a cultivator like herself who is at the Golden Core Stage.
"What about you? Don't you realize how irritable you've become this past year? Were you like this a year ago? And would you have spoken to your father in this manner a year ago?" Chu Mo asked one question after another, watching as Lu Tianyue's face grew more and more pale, then snickered: "I have no idea what your teacher was thinking when he allowed his disciple to walk towards destruction!"
"Don't you dare insult my master!" Lu Tianyue shouted angrily, glaring at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo kept his face calm, staring back at Lu Tianyue undeterred.
After a while, Lu Tianyue let out a sigh, murmuring: "Practicing such techniques, my master didn't agree either, it was my decision. But, is it really as serious as you said?"
At this moment, Lu Tianyue almost forgot why she came to confront Chu Mo, because everything Chu Mo said was spot on!
Not a single word was wrong!
When she came to confront Chu Mo just now, although it was with her father's tacit approval, her reaction was somewhat unexpected for Lu Zheng.
"How serious it is, don't you feel it yourself? Others can lie to you, but how can you deceive yourself?" Chu Mo said with a slight sneer: "Ignorance is not wrong, but stubbornly sticking to your ignorance, that's where you're wrong."
Lu Tianyue raised her eyebrows as if she was about to lose her temper, but eventually, she took a deep breath. This lying bastard is incredibly spiteful with his words; no wonder her younger sister cried a whole night after dealing with him yesterday. By now, Lu Tianyue had fully experienced how ruthless Chu Mo's tongue could be.
"My master didn't approve of my studying these techniques either, but he never said anything about the severe consequences…" Lu Tianyue was trying to speak in her defense.
Chu Mo shook his head and said, "Your master... at most, is at the Primordial Infant Stage, right?"
"What do you mean?" Hearing the disdain in Chu Mo's tone, Lu Tianyue was once again displeased.
"Tianyue, have you not embarrassed yourself enough? When seeking advice, one should have the right attitude!" Lu Zheng, who was standing on the side, couldn't watch any longer. At this point, he fully believed that Chu Mo was a man of significant background.
How many people could tell at a glance the hidden injury in his body? Even cultivators who turned to medicine from the Golden Core Stage hardly spotted his health issue. Yet Chu Mo saw it in one glance in the dark, revealing his biggest secret!
If someone else knew this secret, he would have had his doubts. But the thing was, only he knew this secret!
Still, Lu Zheng had misgivings about Chu Mo's origins. So when his daughter, a native of Lingdong Mountain, wanted to test Chu Mo, he didn't stop her.
As things stand now, Chu Mo is certainly a person of note. His combat power was robust, and his medical skills were exceptional!
None of the major sects Lu Zheng could think of seemed to match.
The ones he couldn't think of were the most frightening! Therefore, Lu Zheng interfered and scolded his daughter accordingly.
Lu Tianyue pouted and then said to Chu Mo, "My master is at the Primordial Infant Stage."
"If your master was at the peak of the Primordial Infant Stage, about to break into the Spirit Refining Stage, then perhaps he would have discouraged you from practicing this technique." Chu Mo looked at Lu Tianyue and said lightly: "Your physique is a ninth level physique, which is considered top tier in the Spirit Realm. So your teacher mistakenly thinks that even if you practice this kind of technique, there wouldn't be any major consequences. But he doesn't realize that your ninth level physique is close to the water attribute. With such a physique, if you were to practice water attribute techniques, you would surely get twice the result with half the effort! But instead, you have chosen a fiery aggressive technique... What the outcome would be from the conflict between water and fire, you figure it out yourself."
"Young Master Chu... what… what should I do?" Lu Zheng was anxious by now.
This daughter was the future hope of the entire Lu Family! Although the Lu family had more than one cultivator at the Golden Core stage, only Lu Tianyue was this young!
He was even counting on his daughter to reach the Primordial Infant Stage or even higher in the future. But now, Chu Mo's words suggested that not only advancing further but even her life may be in danger. How could he not be anxious?
Lu Tianyue's face was also somewhat pale, but in her eyes, there was some doubt. After all, what Chu Mo said was well beyond her understanding.
Chu Mo laughed: "Miss Lu, I know you still have some doubts, then, let me ask you a question."
"What question?" Lu Tianyue looked at Chu Mo, her tone softened unconsciously.
Jin Dongnan, who was sitting on the side, was now thoroughly convinced. He was also elated by the foresight he had. The Jin family was indeed fortunate to be acquainted with a formidable figure who possessed both mysterious origins and impressive abilities.
"When you're near a big river or any body of water, do you feel your heart opens up? Do you feel very happy?" Chu Mo asked.
"Well... wouldn't anyone feel relieved and exhilarated when they see vast rivers?" Lu Tianyue replied.
"Okay. Then, I will ask you one more thing. Are you particularly good at swimming? Aren't you fearless entering any unknown water bodies, and find them extremely safe? Don't the terrifying creatures in the water usually stay away from you?" Chu Mo asked.
"This..." Lu Tianyue was stunned. She looked at Chu Mo incredulously, and after a moment nodded, saying: "Once, some of us disciples came across a large lake. Because of the hot weather, we went in for a swim..."
When it came to bathing, Lu Tianyue blushed slightly but continued to say: "They all encountered attacks from creatures in the water. Only I... was safe. That time, a senior sister of mine who was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage nearly lost her life. We thought it was just a coincidence. So according to what you're saying, it wasn't?"
"Of course not!" Chu Mo said confidently: "This is because the qi in your body, harmonizes with water!"
