At night Raven was busy practicing the three sword forms of Hundred Cleave Skill while running qi inside his body carefully but fast according to the Skill Manual . In fact , after comparing the data on the Skill Book with his own insights about the various accuppints inside the human body from where qi flows , he made slight changes to the Skill formula.
Others may found this act ridiculous because these skills were thousands of years old heritage of the Sect and countless disciples have practiced . Particularly this Hundred Cleave skill was invented by a previous Sect Leader of The Floating Cloud Sect . But Raven did not find his actions ridiculous at all . He was a researcher in his past life mainly researching on medicine. Therefore he was familiar the inner workings of human body. Even though he did not chose the path of a doctor but still through countless hours dedicated to research, his knowledge was extremely profound .
These accupoints and major arteries were not present in the human bodies on earth at all . But Raven after awakening his Divine Sense used it with his perfect controlled qi to probe inside his own body . Through this he discovered the fact that the human bodies of this world had more internal beins compared to earthlings along with numerous accupoints which were somehow connected to each other through the veins . This means that the body potential of humans in this world was much greater and the presence of qi highlighted this fact more and more . All the Martial Skills were required to practice according to their unique pathways of qi among thousands of accupoints . So there were numerous combinations which may make the skill stronger or weaker according to the chosen qi pathway. Raven just used the data on the skill book to compare other pathways because he was not afraid of pain even if his chosen pathway turned out to be wrong . Thus he chose one pathway among the hundreds which were possible for the said Martial Skill . The pathway for his qi to flow that Raven chose was the best one he found .
He could flow his qi faster and smoother thus shortening the time required to unleash the skill while making the power stronger . The skill was technically still Hundred Cleave but it was now his own Skill . So Raven was more familiar with the skill thus resulting it fast comprehension and mastery . Raven discovered that after blood cleansing besides the monstrous cultivation talent , he also gained excellent talent for Martial Skills . But after combing his talent with him choosing the best Skill pathways to unleash the skill , his speed to master the skill was once again boosted . So others with the same talent as him may take years to master their skills completely but he used his brain and talent along with extreme battles to shorten the time frame to mere weeks or months . All the extra effort Raven made was worth it as the results speak for themselves .
While Raven was busy with strengthening his qi through practicing his skills in the small courtyard of his mansion , a drama was happening inside the grand mansion belonging to Elder Mark .
The middle aged Elder was sitting along with a relatively short lady with huge breasts and beautiful facials . She wore a fiery red dress that exposed a part of her slender short legs making her appear more beautiful . The sexy lady was Daisy from before and she was currently arguing with her Father who turned out to be Elder Mark .
" Dad, who wont you let me meet Raven ? I told you that I'm in love with him and want to marry him but you sent Sam to stop me from meeting him . He finally returned after more than a month and you .. you .. " Daisy said the secret which would shock Raven as he had no idea that the casual encounter with the beauty Loli inside the Martial Skill Pavilion had birthed a love seed inside her and it finally sprouted after he displayed his power and temperament during the Outer Sect Tournament. And from the looks of it , Daisy had no crush but actual love for him which made Mark feel helpless.
Elder Mark had no wife but one single daughter who was the result of love between him and his wife. She was a beautiful lady who had entranced him from their youth and finally Mark managed to win her over when they encountered a dangerous beast during a mission . He saved her life at the crucial point and melted her cold heart which blossomed love . Both married after short amount of time and after more than a decade Daisy was born.
But happy times dont last long as her body came in contact with cold poison short time after Daisy's birth . She had a unique bloodline of Vermilion Clan which attributed with fire thus making her power to resist cold extremely strong. But she had just given birth for a few days when she was poisoned so her condition was weak back then to completely resist the cold poison . Still with her bloodline she managed to live for next few years albeit in a weak state and showered her small daughter with love . Elder Mark was always reminded of his incompetent self who despite being an Elder of renowned Floating Cloud Sect did not managed to find the antidote to the poison . A level 7 pill was required to cure the unique pision but even in the Western Region such high level alchemists were too rare much less the extremely rare and expensive ingredients to refine the pill . He tried to save the money but it was nowhere near enough and Mancy finally died in just a few years . Mark could only weep in sadness but he did not let his daughter feel insecure.
He was proud because he managed to raise a beautiful , intelligent and gentle daughter who was not a bit arrogant unlike her peers . But there was only one noticable flaw in Daisy's personality and that was that she was stubborn, extremely stubborn . Mark had not heard about any of her love interests until now so he was not prepared at all when she suddenly mentioned her marriage with Raven.
Mark was confused about what to feel and could only feel helpless in the end . He liked the youngster called Raven as he was smart, powerful and extremely talented . Raven was the role model of a son in law candidate but there were problems too . Raven had too much talent and Mark knew that even though Daisy was even more talented than himself but she was nowhere near the level of Raven .
Even with or without the aid of external resources, Raven managed to increase his cultivation from Peak Martial Disciple to Peak Martial Master in just over a month . This speed was too much even compared to the most extreme genius he had heard of in his life . Raven would definitely travel further and further while Daisy could never hope to keep up with him . On top of that Raven would soon depart for Western Region in a few years at most . Mark was not sure that Raven would even return here not . He could not bear of sending Daisy to the chaotic Western Region either where Martial Peak Realm Experts were not uncommon and were treated at the level of guards at most . All in All Mark was helpless and could do nothing except stop his daughter from meeting Raven in future to not escalate the situation further .
" Daisy , Dad only thinks about your well being so please forgive him . " Mark instantly dissapeared from his position and sent a chop at the back of his daughter's small neck with heavy heart . He held her in his arms and slowly traveled towards her room .
He had never raisen his hand against his daughter before but he had no choice now because she just would not stop crying . According to Sam , Daisy had not eaten anything since days now because she heard that Raven may not return in future . She was so worried that food was the last thing in her mind . Mark just came to know about his daughter's love today once he returned from Raven's Residence . Before Sam had read the situation magnificently and managed to stop Daisy from meeting Raven by using his name.
Now he was not sure that how many times Daisy can be stopped even with his name because even though she had never disobeyed any of his commands before but Mark himself knew that the maters of love were not so simple and force people to make extremely foolish or daring decisions sometimes regardless of the outcome.
In the end Mark just sighed deeply after laying the small body of his daughter down on her bed . He went back and sat on his chair inside the library but he was now too occupied to read his favourite sex novel which he reads practically all the time .
