C40 Jade Water Cold Pool

Behind Lotus Peak, there was a huge valley that was like spring all season.

According to Ye Daoxuan's calculations, this valley was several miles wide. There were towering trees, wild flowers, weeds, several bamboo houses, a stream waterfall, and even some small common birds and animals that were scuttling between the trees and grass. He was just like a little peach blossom.

That majestic waterfall poured down from the summit that was a thousand feet high to the north of the valley. It poured down into a pool of water below, and the deafening rumbling sounds could be heard from afar. When the waterfall entered the water, it created a strong impact force that caused half of the pool to boil. The water vapor that was created almost covered the entire valley, and one could feel the dense water vapor every breath they took.

"Master, are we going to cultivate here from now on? "Hmm, this place is not bad. It's much more peaceful here!" Ye Daoxuan followed behind Gu Xueyao, entering into the valley. He looked around the valley, repeatedly nodding his head.

"All of the disciples I've taken in the past have cultivated in this valley …."

After arriving at the valley, Gu Xueyao seemed to have talked a lot, but her tone was still cold. She gently raised her jade arm, pointed forward with her delicate hand, and said, "Do you see those potholes on the ground? "This was something that all the disciples I've taken in before stepped on while training in secret arts …"

"This..." Ye Daoxuan scratched his head, then asked in a probing manner, "Master, how many disciples did you accept in total?"

Gu Xueyao coldly replied, "You've always wanted to ask this question, haven't you?"

Ye Daoxuan gave a dry laugh, then sincerely nodded and said, "After I took you in as my master, I heard some bad rumors about you from some people, but …. I won't believe it! "

"That's right, the rumors you heard were all true. I have taken in many disciples before, but those disciples were unable to endure my method of apprenticeship and all of them left my tutelage. Some of these people had secretly fled from the Great Sect, violating the rules of the sect by being severely punished before being expelled from the sect. Some of them were injured during cultivation and were unable to continue cultivating, so they had to become service disciples … "My reputation as a masochist has spread far and wide. From then on, no one dares to take me as their master …"

The impression Gu Xueyao gave Ye Daoxuan was the same as a beautiful woman sculpted from snow and ice. Other than the coldness on her face, it was very difficult to see any other expression. However, at this moment, the corners of her mouth revealed a faint self-deprecating smile.

She swept her eyes across Ye Daoxuan, and said, "In these two years, you are the first disciple that was willing to take me as a master. I was very surprised, but at the same time, I was also very unfortunate for you, because from today onwards, you will train cruelly according to my method!"

Cruel? How cruel? I can endure the dripping of the whip's wax. Forget about Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild, that thing will probably kill someone …

Hearing Gu Xueyao's emotionless and ice-cold words, Ye Daoxuan's heart skipped a beat, before patting his chest, "What misfortune? I think it's an honor to be your disciple! I share the same thoughts as you, Master. Teach disciples, the stricter, the better. Hmph, all of the previous disciples were blind, and could not understand the painstaking effort you have put in, Master! There will be a day when they see me improving at a rapid pace under Master's command. Then they will know what regret is! "

But it seemed to have no effect on Gu Xueyao. Gu Xueyao coldly said: "In front of me, there is no meaning in saying these kind words, I will not do anything to you just because of these things!" I was thinking. "How long can you last? Just like the other disciples I took in previously, you will regret acknowledging me as your master and slip away secretly …"

Ye Daoxuan was very unhappy to be looked down upon by such a beautiful young girl. Naturally, he didn't want to show weakness. I, Ye Daoxuan am a dignified seven feet tall man, I will never be a coward that flees before a battle! If I run, once you catch me, you can kill me however you want, and you won't even bat an eye! "

Gu Xueyao nodded and said, "Okay, that's what you said! I'll remember it! "

Holy sh * t, that's too full of words! If Master Beautiful Beauty really has a sadistic hobby, what should I do? Although my strength is now at the seventh step, Beautiful Master is at the ninth step, I definitely can't beat her … Hugging her long and straight legs, trying to act cute and beg for mercy, alright? Can I just wash myself and come over and offer myself to her?

"What are you looking at?" Seeing Ye Daoxuan's pair of eyes darting around her legs, Gu Xueyao's gaze turned even colder, emitting a thick killing intent.

"No …." Nothing. Well, I was thinking. I will definitely follow Master and diligently cultivate, and I will not disappoint the great expectations Master has for me … "

Facing the cold gaze of the ancient Xue Yao, Ye Daoxuan felt a chill go down his spine, and couldn't help but shiver. At this time, he really wanted to take back what he had just said about "killing as you please", but he knew that he had already said it, so he could only put on a righteous face and pretend to be a true man.

"Follow me!"

Gu Xueyao withdrew her gaze from Ye Daoxuan and walked towards the waterfall at the north of the valley.

Ye Daoxuan followed behind her. His gaze wandered as he pondered on how he would be able to smoothly escape from the hands of this ice beauty if he were to be abused and could not tolerate it any longer.

The two of them walked to the waterfall and stood by the side of the pond below. Ye Daoxuan felt a wave of cool and comfortable water vapor rush toward them, and his spirit was immediately lifted. Looking at the clear, jade-green water pool in front of him, he thought to himself, "If it's hot, then this place is truly a great place to take a bath."

It was a pity that there was no swimsuit that showed off its size in this world. Otherwise, what kind of beautiful scenery would it be like for her master to wear it?

Thinking of this, Ye Daoxuan couldn't help but once again look at Gu Xueyao's slender waist and long legs, silently smiling.

Fortunately, Ye Daoxuan was currently standing behind Gu Xueyao. Otherwise, if Gu Xueyao saw his malicious smile, she might have given him a big slap.

"Let's go!"

Ye Daoxuan was staring at Gu Xueyao's graceful figure, lost in thought. Suddenly, he heard Gu Xueyao's soft shout, and following that, his collar tightened. Gu Xueyao actually grabbed him by the collar, and just like that, they flew forward in the air.

The two of them moved as fast as lightning and instantly passed through the pouring waterfall. After reaching the curtain of water, they descended into a huge cave.

The waterfall poured down from the thousand foot high mountain, and the impact was enormous. Gu Xueyao had brought Ye Daoxuan along with her, and with the protection of her true essence, she easily broke through the water curtain. Moreover, her clothes didn't have the slightest drop of water on them.

A warrior of the ninth step was indeed tyrannical!

Ye Su pondered for a moment. If he were to fight with Gu Xueyao, he would lose to her in ten or eight matches. It seemed like he still had a long way to go before he could gain a place among the warriors of this world, protect himself and his family.

At this moment, Ye Daoxuan had abandoned all of the random thoughts in his mind, and was firmly determined to cultivate his heart.

"Follow me in!"

Gu Xueyao loosened her grip on Ye Daoxuan's collar and slowly walked into the cave.

Ye Daoxuan didn't expect that after the waterfall, there would be another cave. Moreover, from the looks of it, Gu Xueyao seemed to have already known about the existence of this cave. It was just that he didn't know why she brought him here.

The cave was not deep, but the space inside was not small. After walking a dozen meters inside, the cave suddenly opened up in front of them. There was nothing there except a water surface emitting a cold air, its circumference was no more than ten feet.

"This pool is called the Jade Water Cold Pool..." Gu Xueyao walked to the side of the pond and stood still. Her gaze focused on the surface of the pond as she said to Ye Daoxuan, who had just caught up, "Place your hand in the pond and try to see if the water in the pond is any different from the other places."

He wanted to scoop up a handful of water and wash his face while raising his spirits, but he didn't expect that the moment his hands touched the water, he would feel a bone chilling cold spread from his hands to his entire body. It was as if he was standing naked in a world of ice and snow.

"Oh my god, this water is so cold!" Ye Daoxuan's entire body suddenly shivered, he immediately retracted his hands, stood up, and yelled out with bared teeth.

Gu Xueyao said, "This Frost Jade Water Pool had been discovered by an elder of the Sect since the founding of the Supreme One Sect. After many years of research, that elder finally came up with a conclusion: If a martial artist were to immerse their entire body in this pool and use a mystical technique to cultivate it, the results would be twice the result with half the effort …"

Seeing that Gu Xueyao's gaze was fixated on him while she was speaking, Ye Daoxuan suddenly understood something. His expression changed as he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva with difficulty and laughed dryly, "Master … Master, you can't be wanting me to … In the future, how about we just soak in this pond and cultivate? "

Gu Xueyao nodded and said, "You're a smart person, you understand everything with just a little!"

Hiss!

Ye Daoxuan's eyes widened and he sucked in a cold breath of air. He hugged his own body and said pitifully, "No Master, I've been lacking in nutrition since I was young, and my body is weak. If I were to soak in such a cold water for a short while, I might just die …" "Master, I have an eighty year old mother who needs to be supported, and a son whom I haven't even reached the full moon to take care of. If I die, they won't be able to survive …" Master... "

"Although this pool of water is extremely cold and sinister, it won't kill anyone. At most, it'll only cause them to suffer a little. Just endure for a bit and then it'll be over."

Gu Xueyao was not the least bit moved by Ye Daoxuan's tragic performance, as she slowly said: "Since I was eight years old, I have been immersed in this Jade Water Cold Pool for at least four hours every day. Ten years like every other day, without end, wouldn't I still be alive and well? You are a man. Can it be that you are not as persevering as a woman like me? "

Eight years old and soaking in this frigid pool? One bubble for four hours? Is this for real?!

Ye Daoxuan blankly stared at Gu Xueyao. From her pair of beautiful eyes that were as clear as water, he couldn't find any traces of lying.

This beautiful woman's master had a cold and aloof temperament. Perhaps this had something to do with her being immersed in the Frost Jade Pool for many years?

However, this beautiful master of mine is not young, but she has a lot of schemes in her heart. She actually used a method to goad me into going down the pool … Hehe, I won't fall for your trick!

I will definitely not enter this pool!

Ye Daoxuan slowly moved towards the cave entrance, prepared to slip away at any moment. He made a decision in his heart — cherish life, and stay far away from the pond!
