Chapter 120 - 120: Returning to the Sect
To her, Li Ming originally looked like someone who might even be unable to withstand a gust of wind. As such, she could not help but wonder if he was merely acting tough.
His internal injuries were much better than he had expected. Li Ming originally thought that he would need to rest for a few months, but he discovered himself recovering pretty quickly. However, it seemed that it would still take some time for him to fully recover.
He had to go back before his injuries recovered. These golden core cultivators all had bad tempers. If another group of miscreants came, he would really be in hot water.
Riding Silly Bird, Li Ming rushed back to his courtyard.
He finally heaved a sigh of relief when he returned to the Divine Will Sect
Although the Divine Will Sect was not big, the sect master and the others were still in the mountains. With their presence, nobody dared to go overboard and cause trouble. The scene of Martial Uncle Xin suppressing all the enemies with a single sword strike on the night when Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan had risen to the foundation establishment realm was still vivid in his mind.
Sects that had at least four golden core cultivators guarding it could be counted on one hand in the entire continent.
The only thing he felt regretful about was that Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan was not currently in the sect.
After obtaining a pile of jade slips, he began living comfortably for some time. While he was recovering from his injuries, he studied the jade slips in his hand.
He earned many types of jade slips, but the truly good ones were few and far between.
In fact, he did not need too many jade slips. All the jade slips in the sect were open to inner sect disciples, and he could enter his master’s library pavilion at will.
Putting everything else aside, just collecting these jade slips would take an unknown amount of time. However, the only thing the sect lacked was the formation jade slips that he urgently needed, so he could only use this method to gather them. He had collected quite a number of jade slips regarding formations, but they were all very fragmented and had no structured system to them.
Fortunately, Li Ming was not a very picky person. He was already quite satisfied just being able to obtain so many jade slips.
Among them, there was a [Blue Flower] that was extremely exquisite, but it was too feminine and was more suited for women.
It was useless to keep it, and the current Li Ying Feng rarely even went to practice the sword. She was busy doing business all day.
However, when he arrived at the east peak, he found that his Junior Sister Lin Xue had also completed her foundation establishment realm and became an inner disciple under Shi Fengrong.
He never thought that this little girl would actually become his junior sister.
When he found a valley and saw the apple-shaped wooden sign with the words “Lin Xue’s home” written on it, he could not help but let out a chuckle.
Lin Xue’s valley did not have any barriers.
Lin Xue, who was practicing her sword technique, was stunned when she saw Li Ming. She was overjoyed but immediately called out timidly, “Senior brother.”
“Mm, very good.” Li Ming praised flatly. In fact, from his point of view, Lin Xue’s sword technique was still full of holes. He threw the [Blue Flower] to Lin
Xue and said, “Take a look at this.”
After asking again, he understood. His master was still in seclusion and did not have the time to teach him anything.
Looking at the other party’s round face full of sweat, Li Ming felt that he should be a good senior brother.
He began to guide her bit by bit. He had been cultivating sword scriptures for a much longer time than Qin Cheng. Although he was not as brilliant as Li Zhengxuan, he also comprehended two types of sword essence. His eyesight and perspective were much better than others.
“Your foundation is not good enough.” As soon as Li Ming said this, Lin Xue felt like crying, but she forcefully held her tears back.
“Hm, you can come to my valley to cultivate every day. When I’m free, I will give you some pointers.”
In the small courtyard, Li Ming, who was bathing in the sun, leaned lazily on a rattan chair. As he swayed, he thought about the jade slips he had memorized.
Not far away, Lin Xue was practicing her sword techniques without saying a word. Her forehead was covered in sweat. Silly Bird stood proudly on the top of the tower, occasionally using her blue beak to tidy up the white feathers on her body.
Li Ming had just been distracted by a difficult question. When he opened his eyes, he saw Silly Bird’s smug face. He grew even more frustrated. He casually picked up a stone and threw it at Silly Bird.
“Show off!” This sentence came out of his mouth.
Silly Bird shrieked and flapped her wings to dodge the flying stone. Her eyes were filled with disdain as she looked at Li Ming.
Lin Xue, who was practicing her sword techniques, suddenly quivered. When she saw Li Ming shout at the blue-beaked snow goose, her big eyes narrowed. Seeing Lin Xue’s smile, Li Ming coughed and walked slowly toward Xue Lin like a senior brother.
“The greatest taboo when practicing sword techniques is to be distracted. You have to concentrate fully. Only then can you…”
Lin Xue was trying hard to hold back her laughter and had a weird look on her face. Li Ming was completely oblivious. He imitated the tone of the tablet spirit, shook his head, and ended with the lines, “What else is there that is easier than cultivating sword arts? Hm, practice a few more times and you’ll get it! ”
Then, he waved his hand. “I’m going to go for a walk.” After saying that, he slowly walked out of the small courtyard.
Ever since Lin Xue came to Li Ming’s place to cultivate every day, Li Ming’s food supply has been increasing. Li Ming’s appetite had also been increasing. She would cook delicious meat soup over a small fire, as well as food that was filled with spiritual qi. The only thing that made him depressed was that Silly Bird would always come to take some for herself. But there was simply nothing he could do when Silly Bird acted cute in front of Lin Xue.
“Tsk tsk, that girl looks really good!” After leaving the valley, the tablet spirit’s figure emerged. He licked his lips and looked back at the valley with a reluctant expression.
Li Ming was already used to the expression on the tablet spirit’s face. “Hmph, there are so many people from the Divine Will Sect who want to kill demons and spirits. If you’re not afraid of death, then go ahead!”
“They won’t be able to see me.” The tablet spirit spoke with confidence.
“If you eat her, I won’t have anything to eat. Let’s die together.” Li Ming smacked his lips. Lin Xue’s cooking was really delicious.
“Hmph, I won’t eat her, but you should not let me starve forever. Give me souls!” The tablet spirit snorted coldly.
“Didn’t you say that it would take some time for the yin fiends in the sword cave to form?” Li Ming said to the tablet spirit while shrugging his shoulders.
The tablet spirit looked like it was drooling. “One day is probably enough. Let’s get a few and satisfy my appetite!”
Without waiting for Li Ming’s reply, he threw down a few spirit stones. His vision blurred, and Li Ming’s figure disappeared from where he was.
Li Ming had come to the sword cave more than once, but every time he came, he would be amazed. No one could imagine that there was actually another world in this cave.
