Chapter 829: Dance Nuo and Unforeseen Changes
Chapter 829: Dance Nuo and Unforeseen Changes
Astrology secrets, nature communication, mind acceleration, and world insight... Although they may not offer direct combat power, they all sound like great skills!
After listening to the Feline Witch's explanation, Lyon's eyebrows couldn't help but raise slightly, showing increased interest in these eighteen Great Courtyard Secrets.
"Can these secrets of the Sorceress Kingdom be passed down outside? Can I learn them?"
You want to learn the Great Courtyard Secrets?
Upon hearing this, the Feline Witch blinked and then hesitantly nodded, "There's nothing that can't be shared, but these secrets seem to have restrictions. It's not that people from other countries can't learn them; it's just that it's difficult for those without the bloodline of the Great Witch Court to master them."
Hmm... It seems it's not that people from other countries can't learn them, but rather those without the Great Witch Court's bloodline. These secrets are probably from two different systems, one for the Great Witch Court and another for humans, but I should be fine, right?
After glancing at the equipped effect of the Half-Witch Blood badge, Lyon switched to it, gaining half of the Last Witch King Ranran's natural talents. He then suggested, "Why don't you teach me and see if I'm one of those who can learn it?"
"Well... I don't think you're the type who can learn the Great Courtyard Secrets, but since you insist, and I owe you a favor, I won't refuse. Let me think for a moment." The Feline Witch, who owed Lyon a favor, didn't reject his request. After a moment of contemplation, she asked, "For Astrology Secrets and Spirit Number Calculation, you'll need to memorize a lot of star maps and spirit number formulas. For Totem cultivation and nature communication, it will also take a very long time to cultivate a medium. The only secret I can teach you right now is the Dance Nuo Secrets. Are you interested in learning it?"
Dance Nuo Secrets... You want me to learn dancing?
Lyon slightly hesitated after recalling the "taming" of the Dance Nuo Society. He remembered the Feline Witch's unique dance, full of wild beauty, illuminated by the bonfire. He then nodded.
"I'd like to learn. Can you teach me after you've rested?"
"Now is fine. I've rested enough."
The Feline Witch stood up from the sofa, folding the hem of her long black cloak and tucking it into the waistband at her waist, revealing two short, tender legs like lotus roots. She then rolled up her sleeves, exposing her arms, and took out a few small clips from her pocket, folding the cuffs into a flower-like pattern and securing them above her elbows, transforming her long cloak into a more convenient style.
"Watch carefully."
The past two days had gone very smoothly, and the shadow of death that had been looming over them had lifted. Feeling quite cheerful, the Feline Witch lifted the hem of her cloak-turned-skirt and gracefully spun around, smiling as she spoke, "Next, I'll demonstrate a few simple beginner dance steps. Watch carefully and then tell me what you feel."
"What do you mean by 'feel'?"
"I mean the purest sensation."
Seemingly anticipating Lyon's question, the Feline Witch gently moved her slender waist and smiled, "Don't focus on memorizing my dance steps. Dance isn't something rigid; the feeling in your heart is the only standard. Without the heart's involvement, no matter how standard your steps and posture are, you'll only be able to perform ordinary dances and won't learn the true Dance Nuo Secrets."
Wow, so abstract!
After hearing the Feline Witch's "idealism" teaching method, Lyon, who had originally intended to memorize the steps and movements, had to shift his gaze from her arms and legs to observe her overall movements instead.
Noticing Lyon's change in focus, the Feline Witch nodded in satisfaction. She then leaned her upper body back slightly, making a few simple stretching movements with her elegant figure, and in an instant, her entire person seemed to "bloom."
That's right, it was a bloom! With the talent boost from the Half-Witch Blood badge, Lyon witnessed an incredible sight as the Feline Witch leaned back, her two pale, slender arms silently coming together and then opening lightly towards the upper-left. In that moment, Lyon felt his vision blur slightly, and the elegant, black-cloaked woman before him completely disappeared from sight.
In place of the previous scene, a tender sprout emerged from the damp, black soil after the rain, its leaves adorned with several raindrops. Whether it was the dark, moist earth, the white bud breaking through the soil, or the glistening raindrops, they all exuded a vibrant and captivating life force.
"How is it?"
The curvy and graceful figure of the Feline Witch trembled slightly, completely freeing herself from the "soil" and shaking off the "raindrops." With a smile, she asked:
"Did you see it clearly? What do you feel?"
Did I see it clearly... I wasn't sure before, but now I truly understand.
Upon hearing the Feline Witch's question, Leon finally snapped out of the vibrant life force and refocused his gaze on her.
To his amazement, he realized that the raindrops on the sprout were actually sweat on the Feline Witch's cheek, and the dark, moist soil was her black robe dampened by sweat. The two white buds breaking through the soil were her slender arms, pale enough to be dazzling.
"That's incredible."
Leon couldn't help but exclaim in awe:
"The moment you started moving, you disappeared from my eyes, as if you transformed into a sprout emerging after the rain.
And when you finished your arching and bending motion, straightening your body, it was like the water droplets sliding off the bud tip, causing the bent leaf to spring back. Your movements are incredibly lifelike."
"..."
Oh, come on... Although I performed the most basic dance step, 'Sprout,' you're too fast! It took me several observations of my mother's dance to grasp 'Sprout,' how can you understand it faster than I, the Witch King's daughter?!
"Let's try another one!"
After witnessing just a few moves, Leon immediately grasped the entire 'Sprout' dance. The Feline Witch fell silent for a moment, then bit her lower lip, determined not to give up. She gracefully executed another set of dance steps, breathing slightly as she asked:
"What about this time? What did you see?"
"Sunset, evening glow, and the bonfire burning in the wilderness."
Noticing the faint blush on the Feline Witch's face, her arms and legs slightly pink from exertion, Leon couldn't help but marvel:
"So the changes in the dancer's body are also part of the Dance Nuo Secrets? Amazing! Hmm... It seems slightly disjointed, like the previous move was more harmonious."
"..."
No... You even noticed that?
Unaware that she had intentionally chosen a challenging dance step and secretly omitted two moves, the Feline Witch was determined to prove herself. She took a deep breath, preparing to perform an even more difficult dance.
However, as she spun, arms outstretched, and her skirt flared like flames, the Sleep Potion, already significantly weakened, suddenly tightened its grip in an instant. It not only restrained the Feline Witch's movements but also instantly drained her remaining energy!
"Be careful!"
Although Leon also felt the surge of suppression, his impact was much less due to his Materialism. He quickly stepped forward, embracing the Feline Witch's waist and following the spinning momentum to prevent her from collapsing to the ground.
Meanwhile, as the Feline Witch leaned against Leon, drenched in sweat and breathing like a kitten, Miss Bump, who had been held captive by the Shaman Society for several days, arrived at the door along with the freckled prince, escorted by the High Witch Court's Captain of the Guards...
