Chen Lu was slightly dazed. She immediately walked up and said, "Master …"
However, before Chen Lu could say anything, Grandma Xuan Mei pushed Chen Lu away and walked in the direction of Shi Ling. When Shi Ling saw this, he cursed in his heart. He was actually caught cheating with a disciple, this was too much.
Thinking this way, Shi Ling hurriedly got up from the ground. Just as he wanted to explain something to Grandma Xuan Mei, Grandma Xuan Mei used the cane in her hand to throw at Shi Ling's face. Shi Ling instinctively reacted and used one of his hands to block in front of him.
Shi Ling had smashed a large tree not far away, and his entire body rolled on the ground for a few rounds before stopping. Shi Ling felt that all the bones in his body were about to break, and when he saw Grandma Xuan Mei walking over, he hurriedly got up from the ground and roared at Grandma Xuan Mei: "Grandma Xuan Mei, recklessly beat up disciples of the sect within the Spirit Sword Sect, aren't you afraid of the scolding of the Spirit Sword Sect?"
Shi Ling wanted to bring out the Spirit Sword Sect and let the other party have some scruples, but Grandma Xuan Mei did not care at all. She waved the walking stick in her hand once, and then knocked it on Shi Ling's head. Shi Ling did not care anymore and immediately took out the Black Wood Sword and collided it with the other party's walking stick.
Dong. Shi Ling felt his hands tremble. A huge force was exerted on his body, causing him to retreat backward. Grandma Xuan Mei still had no intention of letting Shi Ling go.
Shi Ling raised the Black Wood Sword in his hand and blocked it. A "dong" sound was heard, and Shi Ling felt as if his body was pressed down by a huge mountain. Immediately, he knelt down on one knee as he spat out large mouthfuls of blood.
There were no mana fluctuations from Grandma Xuan Mei's body. Obviously, she only used physical strength, but physical strength alone was enough to completely suppress Shi Ling. One could imagine the gap between Shi Ling and her.
The current Grandma Xuan Mei's eyes were unquestionably full of anger. She increased the force of the walking stick in her hand as if she wanted to crush Shi Ling to death. Shi Ling could only desperately resist.
Then, at this time, a whistling sound could be heard. Grandma Xuan Mei narrowed her eyes and looked over, only to see a cyan colored longsword flying towards her with the Second Level and sword aura.
At this moment, Grandma Xuan Mei stretched out her hand. When the long sword approached, her two fingers clamped onto it. A surge of mana roared out from Grandma Xuan Mei's body, sending Shi Ling flying backward.
The difference between him and Grandma Xuan Mei was too huge. Shi Ling was completely suppressed. The impact of the collision actually made him less stressed. However, he was looking at Grandma Xuan Mei's direction.
The sword in Chen Lu's hand was thrust towards Grandma Xuan Mei at an unknown time. In the end, Grandma Xuan Mei's fingers clamped onto the tip of the sword, and the two of them instantly faced off against each other. At this moment, she heard Grandma Xuan Mei's stern voice, "Xiao Lu, you've really grown in ability. For a man, you actually dare to make a move against your master, haven't you?"
Tears welled up in Chen Lu's eyes. Her hands were still shaking as she said with a teary voice, "I wouldn't dare, but I hope you won't hurt Shi Ling anymore."
Grandma Xuan Mei quickly turned her head and looked in Shi Ling's direction. At this moment, Shi Ling's bones were about to break, and he couldn't move at all. If the other party were to attack her again, she would really be finished.
At this moment, Chen Lu stood in front of Shi Ling. Grandma Xuan Mei looked at Chen Lu with a gaze as sharp as knives and said, "Do you want to block my way?"
At this moment, Chen Lu kneeled to the ground with a thump and began to sob. She said, "Teacher, I beg of you. Disciple really doesn't want him to get hurt anymore."
Even though Grandma Xuan Mei's bearing was calm, she was still quite angered by this. Her hand that was holding onto her walking stick was also trembling slightly. She arrived in front of Chen Lu and slapped her face, causing her to vomit blood.
At this moment, Grandma Xuan Mei yelled out, "Don't forget who brought you to the Spirit Sword Sect back then, and who raised you to your current achievements. Are you going to repay me in this way?"
Chen Lu lowered her head in silence. Grandma Xuan Mei shook her head and looked up at the clear night sky. Then, she looked at Shi Ling who slowly got up and said, "I should have killed you back then."
Shi Ling frowned when he heard this. Did the other party want to kill him long ago? But he didn't have much contact with her? Why did she want to kill him? Shi Ling's gaze turned towards the sobbing Chen Lu as his thoughts echoed in his head. Not long later, his eyes widened as he looked at Grandma Xuan Mei and growled, "The reason why Chen Lu broke up with me was because of you!"
Grandma Xuan Mei immediately felt unhappy. Ignoring Chen Lu who was crying, she walked in front of Shi Ling and looked down at him condescendingly. She said, "What qualifications does a little servant have to call out to me?"
Shi Ling stood up from the ground with much difficulty. Then, he looked at Grandma Xuan Mei and said, "Even if I die, I want to die to understand."
Hearing this, Grandma Xuan Mei couldn't help but chuckle. She pointed her walking stick at the ground and said, "Alright. Then I'll let you die for sure."
As she said that, she tapped Shi Ling's forehead. Suddenly, an image appeared in Shi Ling's mind. It was the scene of Grandma Xuan Mei and Chen Lu staying in a secret room.
On the other hand, Grandma Xuan Mei was sitting cross-legged with a calm and composed look on her face. She said to Chen Lu, "Xiao Lu, I hope you understand that Shi Ling is now a janitor and has lost his strength. Your life is over, there will be no results if you stay with him."
Chen Lu kowtowed to Grandma Xuan Mei and said, "When he saved me before, when I was in greatest need of help, he was the one who accompanied me and protected me. Now that he's in trouble, I can't just ignore him."
However, Grandma Xuan Mei sternly said, "You're muddle-headed!"
Chen Lu was so angry that she lowered her head. Grandma Xuan Mei then said: "In the future, you will have to walk out of this small place called Spirit Sword Sect. You will have to compete against the stronger powerhouses of the Nine Prefectures.
Chen Lu looked at Grandma Xuan Mei with eyes full of determination and said, "I have no regrets!"
Grandma Xuan Mei was so angry that she stood up and pointed at Chen Lu. Her body was shaking, but she finally put it down and said, "If that's the case, I can't keep him here anymore!"
As soon as she said that, Chen Lu's eyes suddenly opened wide. "No!"
Grandma Xuan Mei turned her back on Chen Lu and did not speak.
At this point, the video stopped abruptly. Shi Ling immediately came to his senses, while Shi Ling's face was full of shock.
With one hand behind her back, Grandma Xuan Mei said, "Do you understand now? [Do you really think you could have survived until today if this girl had not begged me to let you go? At the time, she promised I would never meet you again. "
As he said that, he couldn't help but snort and look back at Chen Lu. "You think I'm old, so I'm easy to fool, right? You think that just because I was in seclusion, I wouldn't know anything? "
Chen Lu sobbed while Shi Ling lowered his head in silence. Although Shi Ling had already guessed the reason, he would still be unable to accept it when he confirmed it.
Grandma Xuan Mei said: "Shi Ling, I hope you understand the situation you are in now. You are no longer the young genius that you were before, you are now just a servant, a cripple, even if you recover your strength you will still be the same, nothing will change, but Xiao Lu is different. She will stand at the top of this sect in the future, and I do not want her to be tied down by anything because of your matter.
Chen Lu, who was beside her, also obediently stood up at this moment. After which, she stepped on the longsword, and in the next moment, the longsword soared into the sky as it brought Chen Lu and Grandma Xuan Mei away from this place. At this moment, Chen Lu could not help but turn her head to take a look at Shi Ling, who was standing on the spot.
At this moment, Shi Ling raised his head and looked at the distant Chen Lu and Grandma Xuan Mei. His heart was full of bitterness, he had always thought that Chen Lu had broken up with him because of his status as a servant, but he didn't know that she had left him to protect him. It was laughable, all these years he had been mad at her, causing her to bear so much pressure.
Shi Ling immediately sat on the ground and dropped the Black Wood Sword on the side. At this moment, the sky started to rumble with thunder, and not long after, it started to drizzle.
Shi Ling didn't care about the rain pouring on his body. He felt the bone-chilling cold from his body. However, he didn't have any reaction when he saw the blood from his wounds dye the ground red.
Shi Ling just sat there on the ground with no expression on his face. After an unknown amount of time, when the rain stopped and the dark clouds dispersed, revealing a holy moonlight shining on the ground, Shi Ling raised his head again.
At this time, the Heart Ring in Shi Ling's hands flashed and Bai Xiaosheng flew out. He said to Shi Ling, "First heal your injuries and then you can go cultivate with me."
Shi Ling nodded his head at this time. He immediately took out a few Stellar Source Fruit s and threw them into his mouth, then sat down cross-legged where he was and formed a seal. He sensed the natural energy in his surroundings and returned it to his body.
Very soon, the effects of the Stellar Source Fruit on Shi Ling's body came into effect. His injuries were also healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, at this time, Shi Ling's eyes were wide open. Bai Xiaosheng also turned his head to look at Shi Ling. Shi Ling lowered his head to look at his hands and then looked at Bai Xiaosheng. He heard Bai Xiaosheng say, "You're about to break through?"
Bai Xiaosheng looked around and said, "I'm afraid it's too late to find another place now. Since there aren't many people here, why don't we start breaking through here? I'll guard you."
Shi Ling nodded his head in acknowledgement. He immediately took out two Wishing Spirit Bead and clenched them into fists as he began to refine them. In an instant, the violent surge of Spiritual Aura within the world was drawn over and the sun rank Spiritual Vein within Shi Ling's body absorbed all the Spiritual Aura that rushed over.
The Magic Source in Shi Ling's body exploded as the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was being channeled in. At this time, Bai Xiaosheng controlled the Black Wood Sword to the side and inserted it into the ground. Following that, the suppressing force emerged from the Black Wood Sword.
Suddenly, the Magic Source inside Shi Ling's body started to be compressed. However, as the Spirit Qi was being channeled in, the Magic Source began to expand and be compressed again.
Shi Ling repeated this over and over again. After around twenty rounds, the Magic Source light in Shi Ling's body became purer and his mana became more powerful. However, he heard Shi Ling's angry roar towards the sky and an incomparable momentum burst out from his body.
"Perfection of the Spirit Accumulation Realm!"
At this moment, Shi Ling stood up from the ground. He felt that his mana was twice as abundant as before, and a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. The previous dispiritedness and regret had completely disappeared at this moment.
Bai Xiaosheng said, "He's still one step away from the Body Tempering Realm."
Shi Ling nodded his head and said: "But my physical body only has the strength of five raging bulls. Honestly speaking, I don't even know if I can reach the strength of seven raging bulls when I reach the Body Tempering Realm."
Bai Xiaosheng smiled and said, "You are not in a hurry. With your current situation, it will take at least another two months before you can break through again. Within two months, it's more than enough to push the strength of your body to seven raging bulls."
When Shi Ling heard this, he clenched his fist and looked at the sky where Grandma Xuan Mei and Chen Lu had left and muttered, "Old granny, you don't want me with Chen Lu right now because I can't beat you right now. When I beat you, I'll see if you still dare to compete blindly in front of me!"
At this time, Bai Xiaosheng smiled without saying a word. He said to Shi Ling, "Let's go and cultivate. When the sun rises, you will have to participate in the test to become a disciple. Before that, I will teach you a more complete set of cultivation methods."
When Shi Ling heard this, his eyes immediately lit up. He hurriedly followed behind Bai Xiaosheng and said, "Really?"
Bai Xiaosheng nodded his head and said: "I call it 'Cultivation Method of Yin and Yang'. Although its effects are not the best, it is at least much better than your current cultivation method."
