Chapter 349 Mission 23: General's Orphan 20
Wheat and beans looked as if they were meeting a master.
"Miss, you have kept it a secret from us. We don't even know about your childhood adventures."
"This is the agreement between my master and me. I must not tell anyone about it until I reach the Saint Realm. It's a sin to possess a treasure, so we must be on guard."
She is the only Martial Saint in the world today.
Dabao and Erbao knew that they were practicing the outer-worldly martial arts. From now on, only the Han family's descendants and those with exceptionally high physiques would be able to practice these two sets of martial arts.
The skills that Wen Wan passed on to outsiders were all earth-level skills.
This is how it should be, as people are close or distant.
The story of Wen Wan in Beiguan City was passed down to a miraculous degree.
"General Han has reached the level of a Martial Saint, a half-step immortal. If he continues to rise, he will ascend and leave."
"General Han flew into the air, raised his hands, and a strange wind swept across, blowing millions of Yan soldiers hundreds of miles away. The man in the wind was as light as a petal or a leaf in the air. General Han stood on the city wall and said: "I am a man of both civil and military skills, and in martial arts I have reached the level of Martial Saint. Whether civil or martial, once you enter the Saint realm, you will not kill mortals. Retreat! The Northern Yan commander will lead a million-strong army to retreat to Lengyue Pass..."
"Is there a martial arts technique that can lead to becoming a Martial Saint?"
"Yes, General Han has long ago sent people to teach the whole army. Both men and women can practice it. It includes internal training methods and external training techniques, including boxing and kicking."
The teahouse has been packed lately, and everyone loves to listen to this story.
Someone holding a gong and drum shouted, "The immortal general's cultivation method is now on sale! Mental skills, fists and kicks, one set for twenty taels of silver, limited quantities!"
In just a moment, everyone rushed out of the teahouse and headed towards the bookstore.
"Give me a set, I want a set!"
"I want two sets!"
"Each person can only buy one set, no more. Each battalion only has twenty sets. There are so many soldiers in a battalion, so they all share one set. The shop has a total of one hundred sets of male cultivation books and one hundred sets of female cultivation books."
Everyone is competing for the male practitioners' skills, and few people buy the female practitioners' skills.
The male cultivation techniques were sold out in just a few moments.
After hearing about it, Maizi, Douzi and Meizi went to buy the female cultivation techniques. Although they had learned it before, such books were hard to come by and they had to collect them. Maizi asked the woman next door to buy a few more sets for her.
On the city wall, Dabao and Erbao looked at their mother who had changed out of her bright red robe and into something plain and elegant.
Wen Wan said, "Some people from Beiyan sneaked into the city and bought up the martial arts books."
"Mom, are you going to arrest someone?"
"Martial arts belong to everyone in the world, regardless of Great Zhou or Northern Yan, just like knowledge knows no national boundaries. The most advanced martial arts in the Central Plains can protect the people of the Central Plains without any hindrance."
The two exchanged glances. After their mother became a Martial Saint, she seemed to have become different. She looked more and more like a hermit. And it seemed as if their mother would never grow old. Her mother had been like this since they could remember. Now that they had grown up, her mother was still like this, with a youthful and beautiful face and unparalleled grace.
"I have submitted a petition to the court requesting that Dabao be appointed the Grand General of the Nation. I am no longer suitable for holding an important military position."
Wen Wan pointed at the chessboard and said, "I'll be one against two. You each choose a chessboard."
There were two chess sets in front of her.
The two brothers sat down, and Wen Wan asked them to choose chess pieces and play against her two sons.
The general's direct subordinates climbed up the city wall, saw them playing chess, and stood by and watched for a while.
"General, do you still have the cultivation manuals? We got the news too late, and when we got there we only grabbed the female cultivation manuals, but there are no more for the male ones!"
"Dabao and Erbao still have some left. I'll ask them to share some with you later."
"Thank you, General."

Half a month later, the Emperor of the Great Zhou issued an edict, summoning Han Qingwan and her two children to return to the capital.
The Northern Yan State requested peace talks.
Wen Wan mastered the martial arts and Confucian skills taught by the immortals from the outside world. No matter whether it was the military generals or the scholars of Beiyan, they didn't want to fight anymore, and they would not be able to win if they started fighting. There was a martial saint in the Great Zhou who could create a hurricane with a wave of his hand and blow them ten miles away. The opponent had not yet used his full strength, and if he had used his full strength, there would be no need to fight.
Fortunately, after reaching the holy realm, the Martial Saint does not kill people.
If they use this magical power to kill people, they will be wiped out.
The scholars of Northern Yan also wanted to become immortals, but they could not obtain the Confucian cultivation techniques by fighting.
People in the martial arts world had long heard that General Han had learned from an immortal who had taught him a set of skills, and he practiced both civil and martial arts. Immediately, eight Martial Masters and Martial Kings hidden in the martial arts world emerged, each using their own skills to rush to the capital of the Great Zhou, all wanting to compete with the world's number one Martial Saint.
The Emperor of Northern Yan was willing to marry his legitimate princess to the son of the Great Zhou General's Mansion.
There has never been a case of a princess marrying a minister, but Northern Yan did just that.
This is not a marriage of peace, it is clearly for the immortal cultivation techniques in the hands of the Han family.
The Emperor of Northern Yan was also an ordinary man, and he worked even harder to obtain the martial arts technique.
Wen Wan and her two sons were ordered to go to the capital, and the affairs of the Zhenbei Army were temporarily managed by General Yang.
The Yang family received a set of heavenly martial arts techniques as a gift from Wen Wan. With just this set, the Yang family would forever owe the Han family a huge favor. When Wen Wan gave it to them, she said, "This heavenly martial arts technique is unique to your family."
This is something that outsiders are not allowed to practice, it is unique to the Yang family.
After Wen Wan set out from Beiguan City, she found that some people from the underworld were following the convoy, including men and women, old and young. Although there was a lot of noise behind them, no one was causing trouble.

The old princess of Prince Xian's Mansion was taking a nap in the carriage on her way back from burning incense outside the city when she heard the maidservants around her exclaiming repeatedly.
"Old Princess, look at the young man outside. He really looks like the prince, especially his eyes. They are exactly the same as our prince's."
The old princess lifted the curtain of the carriage. There was a young man sitting on the street selling stinky tofu. There were already several pieces of tofu on the plate. "Auntie, give me some more pepper powder. I like spicy food."
The maid saw this and said, "He... his taste in food is the same as the prince's. The princess hates it most when the prince eats stinky tofu, but the prince never tires of it."
The old princess's eyes stopped at the young man and said, "Send someone to find out whose child this is."
The carriage left very late, but the old princess still looked back.
Not far away, two half-grown young servants came over and said, "Third Young Master, the master sent us to look for you. The general and the eldest and second young masters are about to return, and they want you to go back and discuss things."
"Don't rush me. Wait until I finish this plate of stinky tofu. Mom said this place's stinky tofu is the most authentic, and it's true. It's really delicious. Remember to come here and buy me some tomorrow."
Han Siqi ate a plate of food and was satisfied. Then he went to call his servants back home.
When he came back, he saw that everyone in the mansion was smiling, even the master and the nanny looked ten years younger.
Nanny Lian clasped her hands together and said, "Young lady, your suffering has finally paid off. No wonder you have become more and more powerful. It was because you met an immortal in your childhood. The Han family has a young lady and three young masters. Your life will get better and better in the future. Woohoo, I have lived up to the trust of the old lady and the lady. Even if I die in the underworld, I will be able to give them an explanation..."
