I Have A Martial Dao World-Chapter 509 - : Visitor from the Past
Chapter 509: Visitor from the Past
“Uncle-Master, please enjoy the tea.”
Er Ya laid out the tea, fruits, and melons on the stone table, the fragrance wafting through the air, clearly meticulously prepared.
Lu Yao stared at her with an odd expression, sizing up the girl. Petite and delicate, eliciting compassion at a glance, she hardly resembled the “Asura Fairy.”
Er Ya seemed to sense something and glanced up at the newspaper in Lu Yao’s hand, then lowered her head in bashful embarrassment and said,
“Those bad people slandered Uncle-Master… that’s why I…”
Then, she grew a bit worried, “Uncle-Master, are you blaming me?”
...
Lu Yao immediately smiled and said, “How could I? In one fell swoop, you’ve exposed over a dozen newspapers infiltrated by Izumo. You’ve done a great service.”
With that, Er Ya breathed a sigh of relief and beamed at Lu Yao, as bright as a lotus flower after morning dew.
Caught off guard by her smile, Lu Yao felt dazed, as though the ugly duckling had unknowingly transformed into a beautiful swan…
He cleared his throat and continued, “We practice martial arts so we don’t have to suffer indignities. Those you’ve killed got what they deserved. Don’t hesitate with such people in the future; just strike as needed.”

As he spoke, he instinctively reached out to pat Er Ya’s head as he used to do.
But when he stretched out his hand, he realized she was now 1.7 meters tall, a tall and slender young lady, and not so easy to reach.
Er Ya promptly and obligingly squatted down to make it easier for Lu Yao.
“The women martial artists sure are tall…”
He mused, then using the bodily contact as an opportunity, he activated his Inner Vision to check on how the girl was progressing with her cultivation.
“You’ve cleansed your spine already? That’s fast… Good! A solid foundation!”
After offering praise, Lu Yao reminded her, “While progressing swiftly on the Martial Path, you must not neglect Spirit Refinement. It’s like a person’s two legs—one short and one long just won’t do.”
Er Ya nodded repeatedly, “Disciple understands.”
Then, with a chuckle, Lu Yao shared an anecdote to reinforce the point, “In ancient times, those who practiced martial arts but not Spirit Refinement were disdainfully called ‘Strongmen’ and could only work as laborers…”
Er Ya thought Uncle-Master smiled beautifully, his lively eyebrows arching towards his temples, adding to his charm.
His English accent also carried a gentleness, making one feel at ease, devoid of the roughness common among men.
As she watched, she became entranced, and it was only after some time that she suddenly heard her Uncle-Master calling for her:
“Er Ya, you must remember well what I just said. Right, do you have any difficulties with your cultivation?”
Er Ya quickly snapped back to reality and said, “Disciple is cleansing the spine up to the Mingmen Acupoint and feels quite anxious, afraid of making any mistakes…”
The Mingmen Acupoint is located at the lower back, and by its name one can tell it’s a vital spot; one can never be too careful there.
This seemed simple; Lu Yao immediately said, “I can help you by using massage therapy…”
He caught himself mid-sentence, realizing that Er Ya was no longer a child and he should avoid impropriety.
But then… Lu Yao glanced towards the bedroom, Liao Ya probably wouldn’t wake up until tomorrow.
The girl was eagerly waiting, and Lu Yao thought—helping a disciple through difficulties in cultivation was the natural duty of a master.
So he simply said, “I can help you by using massage therapy.”
Er Ya’s eyes sparkled as she skillfully sat down in front of her Uncle-Master, expectantly taking off her outer robe.
Looking at the young girl’s delicate curves, Lu Yao shook his head and mused, “You’re a grown lady now, we’ll really have to be careful in the future.”
He then focused his energy, all distractions fading away, his index finger precisely targeting the “Mingmen Acupoint” on Er Ya’s lower back.
A vast surge of Innate True Qi billowed out, transforming into more than a dozen strands of “True Qi Threads” at his command.
Er Ya immediately felt as if she had dipped into a warm spring, all over her body relaxed and comfortable. The second and third lumbar vertebrae, near the Mingmen Acupoint, were gently and swiftly cleansed by the multiple strands of “True Qi Threads.”
A bottleneck that would normally take a year or more to overcome required only a few breaths before Lu Yao!
Having seen much in her travels, Er Ya was aware of how rare and generous her current treatment was.
She respectfully saluted Lu Yao, “Many thanks, Uncle-Master!”
“No need for formalities. When you cleanse by yourself in the future, be as gentle and patient as if you were handling your own eyeballs.”
Er Ya listened intently to her Uncle-Master’s advice, wishing time would slow down to prolong their time together.
Just then, three Spiritual Sparrowhawks swooped down from the sky, squawking oddly as they jostled for attention, instantly disrupting the mood.
They clamped Lu Yao’s hand with their beaks and placed it on their bodies, signaling their owner to massage them.
At the same time, they swept their tail feathers at Er Ya, deliberately shooing her away.
The scene was chaotic, and Lu Yao said, “Second Miss, go cultivate on your own, I’ll deal with them first.”
“Disciple retreats …”
~~~~~~~~~~~~
With a cold face and pursed lips, Second Miss went to the mountains and threw a fierce series of punches, nearly snapping a crooked-necked tree at the waist.
“Damn those flat-haired beasts!”
The rare opportunity for companionship was disrupted, and the young girl was quite angry.
After venting, she suddenly noticed a car arriving at the foot of the mountain.
After the car stopped, a man and a woman got out and waited respectfully at the gate of the mountain.
The man had a long braid trailing down his back, and the woman had a full head of little braids—a style typical of the ethnic minorities from beyond the Great Wall.
This was the first time Second Miss had seen such attire, and she approached with curiosity.
When the two saw the girl approaching, they hurriedly performed a formal greeting:
“Na Wei and Tong Jia, pay their respects to Su Immortal.”
These two were none other than the “Mountain Patrollers” who had sold the Spiritual Sparrowhawk to Lu Yao earlier!
The voice of her uncle-master reached Second Miss’s ears: [These two are my old acquaintances, bring them up.]
Therefore, the young girl lifted her hand and gestured: “The True Monarch invites you, please follow me.”
The two were pleasantly surprised and hurried to follow Second Miss up the mountain.
The mountain path was rugged, and Tong Jia, supporting Na Wei’s arm, did not move very quickly.
Second Miss looked back and realized that the man … was blind.
~~~~~~~~~~~
The group soon met.
Lu Yao gazed at the two familiar faces, feeling the irony of fate.
These two, once rivals, had had grievances against each other, with Tong Jia even purchasing firearms from Lu Yao to use against Na Wei.
But now, with their intimate behavior, it was clear they had become husband and wife, and the once fierce-looking Na Wei was now blind.
Na Wei and Tong Jia were even more astonished by the achievements Lu Yao had made, bowing respectfully, “Greetings, True Monarch!”
Lu Yao released a stream of True Qi to help them stand up: “No need for such formalities, what happened to your eyes?”
Na Wei replied with a calm demeanor, “Blinded by the Poison Gas of the Izumo people.”
Tong Jia added:
“To report to the True Monarch, the Izumo troops stationed in Goryeo have repeatedly crossed the border to plunder. We couldn’t stand by and fought them several times…
Our visit here is to report— the Izumo have reinforced their troops in Goryeo, clearly planning a large-scale invasion!”
Lu Yao said, “Thank you both for your concern. Coincidentally, the Imperial Court also plans to take military action against Goryeo soon to eliminate Izumo’s influence.”
“Such an event!”
The two were delighted, but then Na Wei said gravely:
“True Monarch, I know you are powerful, but do not underestimate the Izumo People!
They’ve set up a place within the Goryeo territory dedicated to researching Poison Gas, conducting horrendous experiments on living people. Even I, at the Marrow-Cleansing Realm, was blinded by the gas…”
Lu Yao felt somewhat relieved, as both battle armor and mechas were equipped with protective features. He then declared firmly:
“Rest assured, these beasts will be annihilated this time!”
The two sighed in relief, with Tong Jia beginning to recount the deeds the Izumo People had done in Goryeo.
Looting and raping, comfort women, killing competitions, and so on.
Finally, Na Wei interrupted: “Stop, to avoid sullying the ears of the True Monarch and Su Immortal…”
Lu Yao’s expression was inscrutable: “It’s fine, I know almost everything.”
Na Wei sighed, “It’s good that you know. Their army… is simply bestial.
But there’s something I’m not sure of, it seems someone claiming to be a descendant of the Great Khan of the Jin Empire has defected to Izumo, intending to establish a regime beyond the Great Wall.”
