“So you wear a veil because of your father?”
Han Ye asked, looking at Chu Xianyu’s white veil.
Chu Xianyu slowly nodded, “My swordsmanship never improves. My father
said seeing my face annoys him, so I wore a veil and devoted myself to practicing the sword. This habit has persisted for more than a decade.” At this, Han Ye couldn’t help but sigh.
Who at such a young age could master the sword to such an extent? It completely goes against human growth.
But being born into the Chu Family, she had to do it.
“So, you…”
Han Ye started but stopped, apparently realizing that it’s not a good topic. However, Chu Xianyu’s eyes seemed to sharpen as she said in a low tone, “That’s right. I joined the Dragon Sparrow Sect to prove that even without my father or the Chu Family, I can still cultivate to become a Sword Immortal.” Han Ye could feel her determination.
Being shielded by her ancestors and never receiving recognition from the world, attributing all her efforts and talents to her family’s cultivation and ignoring her own feelings.
Although she seemed fragile on the surface, she possessed great strength within.
“You can’t tell anyone about this.”
Chu Xianyu suddenly trained her eyes on Han Ye, adding another sentence. “Then why are you willing to tell me?”
Han Ye teased.
“I want to make friends with you. I hope you won’t ignore that,” Chu Xianyu said responsibly.
“???”
Stumped, Han Ye then could not help but laugh.
“Hahaha! Who taught you this nonsense?”
Hearing his laughter, Chu Xianyu’s eyes dimmed, and her head drooped again. “The wandering martial artists I encounter all seem to behave this way.” At this, Han Ye stopped teasing her, looked at her face, and said earnestly, “Actually, we are already friends. As a friend, I must remind you not to pick up such crude forms of communication.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
Upon hearing Han Ye’s agreement, a joyful smile appeared on Chu Xianyu’s face.
Seeing this, Han Ye couldn’t help but feel pity. He understood that Chu Xianyu was desperately longing for a friend.
Due to her personality and her aura, nobody dared approach her or befriend her.
So, she had always been alone.
“Thank you.”
“Could you help me fetch the book on the top shelf?”
Chu Xianyu’s slender finger pointed toward a thick book on the highest shelf. Han Ye turned around, made a light leap, stretched his arm to fetch the book, and handed it to her.
“Here you go.”
“Thank you.”
Chu Xianyu’s eyes curved into a smile, radiating happiness.
The pleasant times always seemed to fly by.
As the twilight descended, Chu Xianyu stood up, smoothing her skirt, returned all the books in preparation to leave.
Seeing this, Han Ye also stood up. They were both punctual in leaving at this time. Each had their own matters to attend to – Han Ye had to return to Pure Yang Peak for cultivation, and he had an appointment with his senior sister in the evening which he couldn’t postpone.
Han Ye and Chu Xianyu exited the Book Collection Pavilion together and bid their goodbyes at the Sea of Books Peak.
“See you next time.”
“Mm.”
Watching her recede, Han Ye smiled
She isn’t as cold as she seemed.
He summoned his Immortal Crane with his jade token and galloped through the mountains and seas, traversed the cloud mist, and after some time, returned to Pure Yang Peak.
The mountain peak seemed to have more new faces compared to when Han Ye first arrived, all new disciples who have recently joined Pure Yang Peak.
Everyone was cultivating amidst the mountain forest, sitting on trees, or standing still on a rock, or under a waterfall accepting the cleansing of the water – the vast mountain peak finally had signs of human life.
“Junior brother, you’re back.”
After landing, two robust disciples dressed in green robes greeted Han Ye with a smile..
“Yes, I have learned a lot.”
Han Ye replied with a smile.
In these days, his interactions with his senior brothers were pleasant.
After he gave a few Outer Sect disciples a good beating for demanding spirit stones, the other Outer Sect disciples began to show him some respect.
Clearly, the Outer Sect disciples of Pure Yang Peak had suffered quite a lot.
“Your senior sister is waiting for you. Don’t make her wait too long, her fists are much harder than ours.”
An Inner Sect senior brother full of tendons jokingly said so.
“Yes, yes, I was supposed to go on a task with her last time and I arrived late by half an hour only to be hammered by her.”
“Then I’ll go now!”
Han Ye shuddered at the sound of this.
Although Elder Sister Shen appears to be stunningly beautiful with a gentle smile on her face, she isn’t lenient if you make a mistake or break rules.
Just a few days ago, he had watched her deal forcefully with an incident where new Outer Sect disciples from Pure Yang Peak were fighting, pushing a dozen of them into the ground with a single motion, none escaped unscathed.
Her strength was truly terrifying.
Only then did he realize that Elder Sister Shen was the real boss amongst the disciples.
It’s no wonder she could become Elder Gai’s right hand.
As it was rumored, she was not far from becoming a direct disciple and was in line to be one, all the procedures had been dealt with already.
“Elder Sister, I’m here.”
Han Ye, being honest, arrived at the entrance of elder sister’s mansion and knocked the door.
“Ha~ You’re back?”
Shen Yuxiang slowly opened the door, looking relaxed, she stretched out her languid body and rubbed her sleepy eyes.
With a touch of her ring, she took out a jade slip and handed it over to Han Ye.
“This is the ‘Supreme Limitless Skill’ of Pure Yang Peak, you have entered the Qi Cultivation Realm, you can learn it now. This cultivation technique is much more difficult than the ‘Dragon Sparrow Qi Cultivation Technique’. Study it well.”
“Understood.”
Han Ye nodded solemnly.
He held the jade slip and planned to go back to his room to study it carefully. But first, he took a quick look at it.
This Supreme Limitless Skill is a cultivation technique that combines body cultivating and immortality. It was created by the first head of Pure Yang Peak. It is the top tier cultivation technique for body cultivators and a necessary defensive technique needed for one’s own protection.
It combines the cultivation of outside and inside, merging movement and stillness, internally refining the five organs and six viscera, externally refining muscles, bones and skin, and tempering the meridians that cultivators often neglect to the extreme. It can accomplish overcoming the tough with gentleness and resisting the power of magic treasures with bare hands!
Overall, it’s pretty amazing.
“Da Niu, have you entered the Qi Cultivation Realm?”
On the gallery of the building, Han Ye met Wang Da Niu who was chatting with someone and greeted him.
Upon seeing Han Ye, Wang Da Niu wore a smile on his face and said, “Yo, Brother Han is back. I haven’t yet. I guess it will take me a while. Elder Sister said that I should use the Qi Nurturing Pill as a supplement, which will accelerate the process.”
“Who is this…”
Han Ye noticed the Outer Sect disciple standing next to Da Niu, who was quite tall, but had a rather thin face. He looked familiar.
He didn’t expect Da Niu to make friends so quickly within a few days.
It makes sense, who calls him Social Niu.
But this person really looked familiar.
Wang Da Niu patted the shoulder of the person next to him while smiling and said, “Brother Han, let me introduce you. This is Brother Lin Shihuang. We had met at the root bone test previously.”
“Pick Up Attribute: Heavenly Slaughter Lone Star +1”
Oh!
I remember now.
Han Ye finally realized that this was the guy who had stepped on the foot of another Sect’s Senior Brother, and had the “Heavenly Slaughter Lone Star” attribute.
“So Da Niu…”
“Da Niu, Da Niu, are you okay?”
Han Ye looked at Wang Da Niu, whose face had suddenly turned white, and asked with concern.
“I don’t know why but suddenly, my stomach hurts. It seems like I’ve got diarrhea. Wait for me, I’ll be right back!”
Wang Da Niu, clutching his stomach, showing an expression of constipation and shouted, before making a quick exit.
The thin man bowed to Han Ye and said with a smile, “Brother Han, we’re all disciples of Pure Yang Peak. I hope you’ll help me in the coming days.” “Likewise.”
Han Ye also returned the gesture, he was quite curious about this guy with the ‘Heavenly Slaughter Lone Star’ trait.
“You look familiar, did we meet at the root bone test?”
The thin man nodded, “Yes, I wore a veil at the time, so Brother Han may not have recognized me.”
Han Ye suddenly realized and remembered, “Oh! So you are the one with the broken dual spiritual root whom the elder had mentioned.”
“That’s right. I escaped all the way here to seek refuge at Dragon Sparrow Sect only in search of peace. That day, the elder saw right through me, but he did not mind, he still took me in.”
“Why were you on the run? Can you share?”
Han Ye asked tentatively.
The thin man chuckled self-deprecatingly, “Family misfortune, could not guard against chaos.”
Han Ye couldn’t help but be suspicious after hearing this.
Was it really a family misfortune?
The thin man sighed, “Truth be told, I am a descendant of the Great Zhou royal family. It’s just that due to a treacherous subject, who led the country astray, I fell into such a situation. I can only roam everywhere, exploring the path of immortality.”
“You are a member of the Great Zhou royal family?”
Han Ye exclaimed.
“Yes, my name is Lin Shihuang, the third son of the Emperor of the Great Zhou.”
