Chapter 266: Chapter 110: Purple Mist’s Humiliation, The Beginning of Cultivation
The elderly man sighed softly, "Junior Sister, I know you value love and loyalty and can’t let him go... but everything is in the past."
The Purple Mist Peak Master replied, "Then do you know the one at Feiguang Peak is ambitious?"
The elder said no more, only added, "Today’s matter is settled, Junior Sister, send a message telling Xiao’e not to go again.
I have already arranged for someone to find that sapling and teach him the Cultivation Technique.
Besides, Junior Sister, you have actions to take.
Starting tomorrow, this old man plans to teach you and the other three Peak Masters a Sword Array to help our sect expand.
In the past, our sect did not have many disciples, but with expansions, more and more disciples will join our sect. At that time, they will be too weak in strength, and in battles of techniques, they won’t be able to contribute much. But the Sword Array can gather their strength, solving that problem."
The Purple Mist Peak Master’s chest heaved, for a while... and then for a while more, before she clasped her hands, said "Follow the Sect Leader’s arrangements," and then... flew away with Sword Control.
The elder watched her silhouette disappear in the distance, sighed lightly, then suddenly started coughing violently.
...
...
Divine Martial Monarch’s residence.
Li Xuan had been waiting for Luo E’s return.
But he did not wait for that. Instead, a woman in a purple robe descended from the sky.
Compared to Luo E’s cold and aloof demeanor in public, this female cultivator clearly gave off a sense of "desire," her fiery figure wrapped in a floating sword robe, her gaze cold but not with the kind of icy demeanor that kept people at a thousand miles away like Luo E, but a coldness that made one unconsciously want to offend.
Upon seeing this purple-robed female cultivator, Li Xuan immediately knew... the "assessor" had arrived.
He suitably expressed a trace of "being mesmerized by beauty" in his normal expression.
Because the female cultivator was very beautiful.
Beauty always cares about the gaze of others.
Thinking about a book he read in a previous life, where one beggar clan leader was harmed by a woman simply because he looked at her one glance less, and that woman bore a grudge. So sometimes, the feeling of "being moved by beauty" one gives is "mediocre," but it is also a form of respect.
Li Xuan did not need to prove his uniqueness through such displays.
He had a golden finger, after all.
When the female cultivator landed, Li Xuan saluted, "Immortal."
The female cultivator looked at the ordinary Prince in front of her, at his lecherous eyes, only felt like he was no different from other men, only felt her charm was proven again, so she smiled cheerfully, "Just call me Senior Sister Feng."
Li Xuan replied, "Senior Sister Feng."
The female cultivator laughed, "Good boy, Senior Sister will give you some candy."
As she spoke, she indeed rummaged inside her bosom and took out a piece of candy.
The candy emitted a refreshing fragrance, and upon smelling it, it was clear it wasn’t ordinary.
Senior Sister Feng handed out the candy.
Li Xuan went to take it, and after taking it, he directly unwrapped the candy and put it in his mouth.
As soon as the candy entered his stomach, he felt a surge of coolness rising, and surprisingly, his boiling blood qi dropped a little.
Clearly, this was similar to the effect of the "Purple Ice Copper."
Li Xuan smiled, "Senior Sister’s candy is delicious."
Senior Sister Feng chuckled and then said, "My name is Feng Mengrou, a disciple of Lingyi Sect’s Feiguang Peak. Upon knowing about Junior Brother, I became very interested in you, so I told Master that I want to guide your cultivation."
Li Xuan said, "Much appreciated by Senior Sister’s favor, but about the previous Luo E, Senior Sister Luo?"
Feng Mengrou replied, "That little girl Luo E, did she promise to come to you, Junior Brother? Yet she didn’t come, that is really outrageous."
Li Xuan pretended to be astounded.
What didn’t he understand?
At that moment, he suddenly realized...
What sect, it’s merely a more powerful ruler.
"Retreat from the mundane, live carefree" maybe only exists in the imagination of common folks? Much like those unaware of royal affairs, who assume the emperor is the supreme ruler, whose words define the realm, no one can defy him. Yet this isn’t the case.
Li Xuan said, "My concubine from the Wei family went with Senior Sister Luo to the sect too, and now I don’t know what’s become of her."
Feng Mengrou clearly understood, straightforwardly replied, "She has already been accepted into the Purple Mist Peak.
The sect rules, upon joining, you cannot switch schools.
But Junior Brother needn’t worry, after all, the five peaks of Lingyi Sect are one family.
Purple Mist Peak is the weakest of the five, while Feiguang Peak is the strongest.
If Junior Brother truly has talent, it shouldn’t be wasted; once powerful, you can also protect your concubine."
Li Xuan nodded, no longer entangled by this, but said, "Taking Senior Sister’s cultivation time to teach me, Xuan is endlessly grateful."
Feng Mengrou no longer wasted words, rummaged from her bosom, took out a small box, handed it to Li Xuan, "Let’s first test your aptitude."
As for wasting cultivation time, that didn’t exist.
Because her aptitude wasn’t up to par.
Li Xuan asked, "How to test?"
Feng Mengrou replied, "Inside the box is a small stone, hold it."
Li Xuan nodded, opened the box, saw a hard stone emitting a spirit-like aura, and couldn’t help but feel surprised.
This item... was quite familiar to him.
As his Spirit Attribute grew, he went from "focus" to "eidetic memory," to "unity of knowledge and action," to "authored works," "hand-drawn Secret Martial Root Map."
And when his Spirit Attribute reached 190, he could plant a "Spirit Seed" in an item, sharing its sight and sound.
Later, when his Spirit Attribute reached 280, a qualitative change occurred again.
The change was "Spirit Root."
"Spirit Root" is like a "Spirit Seed" sprouting, and the item becomes completely dominant, as if turning into a part of your body, enabling you to drive it at will.
