Disgraceful

Danny was very clear on whether or not Emma's profound strength was truly at the 9th level of the Profound Ki Disciple Realm, but of course, Yates had no idea. Emma had gotten truly angry and used at least seventy percent of her profound strength just now. Looking at the Yates sprawled on the ground, she retracted her palm and then indifferently said: "It looks like Young Master Yates isn't that great at exchanging pointers, please go back."

Laying on the ground, Yates was stupefied… He originally believed that with his third level of the Profound Ki Practitioner Realm's profound strength, taking advantage of Emma would be as easy as reaching out with his hand. No matter what, he didn't think that upon meeting, he would end up on the ground with his entire body bruised and battered without even a chance to react. He stared with wide eyes in shock at the two bloody incisors that had fallen on the ground in front of him.

Yates immediately picked himself up, his face twitching. He knew how battered and exhausted he looked at the moment. It could be said that with his status as the Radd Clan's young master, he had never in his lifetime been in such a sorry state… and also in front of the woman that he admired and longed for the most. However, Young Master Yates was still Young Master Yates. He forcibly swallowed the blood in his mouth, his face revealing a what could be considered warm and elegant smile: "Lady Ross's tenth level of the Profound Ki Disciple Realm strength is deserving of its reputation. Just then I was casually testing and had somewhat underestimated you. Then this time, Lady Emma must pay careful attention."

With his two missing front teeth, Yates words were punctuated by the sound of whistling air. After speaking, he had already raised his hands and mobilized all of his profound strength… He naively believed that the reason he ended up at a disadvantage just now was solely because he carelessly acted, whereas Emma had reacted ruthlessly with her entire strength. With his third level of the Profound Ki Practitioner Realm's strength, how could he not handle Emma's 9th level of the Elementary Profound Realm?!

Yates walked forward. Three steps later, both hands simultaneously shot out, seeking to immediately wrap around Emma's arm. His actions caused Emma to loathe him even more. With all her patience exhausted, her right arm abruptly swung out, her red sleeve fluttering along. A gust of profound strength carrying a tinge of Sparks swept across Yates face.

This bit of profound strength didn't carry any trace of the Joyful Flower Arts, but still wasn't something that Yates could handle.

With a *peng* sound, Yates right cheek sank downwards and his entire body flew backwards. He spun in the air at least seven or eight times like a top before landing heavily outside the courtyard. Three bloody teeth also were knocked free, two of them stabbing into Yates's face.

"The exchange of pointers is over, I won't see you out." Emma didn't even glance at him, her fairy-like voice ice cold.

Yates entire right face was a patch of red, as if dyed with blood. Right now, even if he was an idiot, he would still understand that his third level of the Profound Ki Practitioner Realm's strength was, from the start, insufficient in front of Emma. He held the throbbing part of his right face and gave Emma a look dyed with a tinge of terror. Taking in a rough breath, he staggered away without another word.

Yates had reached the infirmary and was about to enter when he saw Danny just then leaving, his left hand hold a medicinal pot and his right, a package. Upon seeing Yates, Danny promptly greeted him warmly: "Brother Yates, why did you come here? Aiya! Brother Yates, your face… what, what, what… what happened?"

Seeing Danny, Yates clenched his teeth, let out a cold snort, and immediately rushed into the infirmary. Shortly, the astonished sound of the Radd Clan's chief doctor, Guy Radd, could be heard from inside. "Young master… Who, who, who, who…would be so bold to do this kind of evil thing to you?!"

"No harm done… When I was at the rear mountains training, I wasn't careful and fell down…" Yates voice was clearly riddled with pain. Of course he could not admit that his current state was because he was given a lesson while trying to take advantage of Emma.

"How is this no harm done?! Your cheekbone has been shattered to no small extent, you've lost five teeth, and another three have been snapped in half. None of these can be grown back…"

Danny had not walked too far away. The voices that floated into his ear sent a cold chill up his spine.

This woman… her actions were far too ruthless!

The Murdering Almond Powder that had killed him most likely came from Yates. Originally, Danny wanted to borrow Emma's power to give him a little lesson… but how could this be considered a lesson? It was simply beating him half to death!

Thinking about how he had used his grandfather as a shield to lead her by the hand early in the morning, Danny couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.

When he returned to his own courtyard, Emma was calmly standing in the courtyard center. Seeing him return, she indifferently spoke. "Yates came over."

"Ah, yes, I know. I just saw him at the infirmary." Danny carefully took a look at Emma's expression before prudently responding.

Emma no longer paid any attention to him. She lightly closed her eyes and a layer of ice cold air surrounded her body.

" my wife, can I ask you a question?" Danny opened his mouth to ask as he took a step forward.

"?" Emma didn't react in the least.

"What level is your profound strength really at?" To be able to force Yates into such a sorry state, she should be at least at the fifth level of the Profound Ki Practitioner Realm! To be at the fifth level of the Profound Ki Practitioner Realm at the age of sixteen… if this was revealed, Floating Stone City would truly explode.

Emma still did not react in the least. She didn't seem to have any intention of answering him.

The ignored Danny had a face full of gloom. Looking at Emma's appearance, she should be silently practicing Joyful Flower Palace's exclusive profound technique, the Joyful Flower Arts. He no longer spoke. After placing the things in his hands on the ground, he leaned his body back, crossed his hands over his chest, and leisurely watched the peaceful Emma.

He watched until a quarter of an hour had passed.

Emma generally stayed in her room in the past. While training in the Joyful Flower Arts, besides her master occasionally giving tips to her from the side, the rest of the time she was by herself, with absolutely no one else to bother her… not to mention a man who fixedly watched her with both eyes.

Even though she was calmly standing there with her eyes closed, firmly concentrating on her training with the Joyful Flower Arts circulating through her body, she could still feel Danny's standing there watching her. Moreover it was a constant stare… his gaze hardly ever left her for even a moment. That piercing gaze over and over again swept over every part of her body, giving her no way of completely calming her heart. Her entire body was uncomfortable… after all, she was still only a sixteen year old girl. To expect her heart to truly be like still water was simply asking for too much.

After an entire quarter hour, Danny was still standing there, his gaze firmly on her. Emma finally could not restrain herself and opened her beautiful eyes to glance at him, coldly saying: "What are you doing, always staring at me?"

"Waiting for you to voluntarily speak to me," Danny innocently replied.

"..." Emma had the urge to kill someone.

"*Cough cough* Actually, I had something really important to talk to you about. But I was afraid of interrupting your training just now, so I had no choice but to wait." Danny got up, his expression sincere.

"… What is it?" Emma asked, strongly suppressing her anger.

"Uhm, it's like this." Danny's expression became serious. He took a few steps forward until he was standing in front of Emma, then confidently said: "Early this morning, when I held your hand… ah, ah! D, d, don't do anything! I'm talking about serious business, serious business!" Upon seeing Emma suddenly reveal her killing intent, Danny promptly retreated several steps, a wary expression appearing on his face… The miserable state Yates had just been in provided a bloody lesson… Seeing that Emma didn't, in fact, do anything, Danny let out a small sigh of relief and continued: "When I held your hand, I felt your pulse in passing and found a big problem. An extremely big problem."

His words didn't cause Emma's gaze to waver even a bit… she didn't believe him from the start.

Though she did feel him secretly measuring her pulse when he led her by the hand this morning, how could the man from the Radd family that all of Floating Stone City knew to be weak know anything about pulses?

But Danny's following words nevertheless caused Emma to tremble slightly.

"Isn't it true that one day of every month you body goes in to extreme heat? And not only that, but for the next full, your entire body would be in heat , and mind in confusion."

Emma's gaze wavered, unwittingly asking, "How do you know?"

Danny continued to speak. "Also, after training in the Joyful Flower Secret Arts, every time your profound Ki strength makes a breakthrough, within the next two or three days, isn't it true that your entire body would be in head, your mind in confusion, and you'd be unable to eat or sleep peacefully?"

Emma's gaze once again violently shook… because what Danny said was not wrong at all!

"Also…" Danny's feet moved straight in the direction of the courtyard door. Not until half his body was outside the door did he say with a serious face: "Your last… umm.. ah… period, wasn't it early by about seven or eight days?"

Emma "!@#￥%..."

Only when he didn't feel any killing intent from Emma did Danny cautiously walk back from the courtyard door: "Do you believe me now?"

"How do you know all of this?" Emma's eyebrows drooped as she asked.

"From your pulse!"

"You can measure pulses?"

"Would you believe me if I said I am a doctor of miracles?" Danny asked with a sincere face.

"If you want to joke around, then go find your little aunt." Emma glanced at him without expression.

Of course, Danny didn't expect Emma to believe him. It would be weirder if she actually believed him: "These are all very serious symptoms. You don't want to know how to treat them?"

"No need." Emma let out a cold voice: "The Joyful Flower Arts is the Joyful Flower Palace's exclusive profound Ki technique, subtle yet inexhaustible. Once you start practicing the Joyful Flower Arts, your entire body will have a hard time adjusting to the enormous Yin Ki and will more or less show some negative side effects. In the Joyful Flower Palace, this is common sense that's known to all the disciples. Even master and master's ancestors experienced this. Once the Joyful Flower Arts have been trained to a certain extent, these negative side effects will disappear completely on their own."

"Yes, yes, what you said isn't wrong." Danny nodded with deep consideration then said with a chuckle: "But I also finally have some understanding of why Joyful Flower Palace teaches to do Dual cultivation with men as slaves for Yang Ki… because even if the women of Joyful Flower Palace had lovers, they still wouldn't be able to Faithful. If this were to be leaked, it would be very harmful to Joyful Flower Palace's prestige. It's better to just to the disciples of Joyful Flower Palace to treat men as slaves rather than marry them and at the same time, protect this pretty disgraceful secret."

Emma's eyebrows suddenly slanted and her gaze abruptly became cold. For the first time, she was truly angry at Danny: "Shut up! I can tolerate your nonsense… but I won't allow you to insult my school! If you continue with even half a sentence more of that kind of talk, then I won't forgive you!"

Now, the previously cautious and cowering Danny had not even a hint of a fearful expression. Instead, he faintly smiled and said leisurely: "Whether or not I was wrong, I know very well. I can also tell you… the more powerful the profound Ki strength, the longer the life expectancy. However, from your pulse, I am absolutely certain that the life expectancy of members of your Joyful Flower Palace is one third less than that of someone else with the same level of profound Ki strength, if not more! you guy's require continuous supply of Yang Ki to make up for the side Effect in return you get twice the normal Profound Ki Strength "

"Am I right or am I wrong?"

Danny's words were like a clap of thunder next to Emma's ears and caused her two beautiful pupils to contract for an instant.
