"You're not human!"
The next day, Cynanchum Chinense woke up in pain from her sleep. She felt that all the food she had contributed for the past three months had been fed to the dogs, and in exchange, she had been tortured like this. However, there was nothing new in her scolding. She only used a few words over and over again.
Shen Zhenyi didn't care about her and just said lightly, "This medicinal bath will be done once every three days."
Cynanchum Chinense was speechless.
After a long time, she begged, "I won't learn it, okay? At most, I'll just let my senior sister kill me. "
This frightening medicinal bath had truly left a deep shadow in her heart. Chu Huoluo really did not want to go through this kind of pain again. If she had to continue to be tortured for three months in a three-day cycle, then she might as well just let Chu Xie 'er kill her with a single sword strike.
Shen Zhenyi didn't stop her.
He had always believed that people had to choose their own path. If you wanted to give up, then no one could force you to stand up.
So Cynanchum Chinense was scared again.
"Can't that lessen the pain a little?" She pleaded softly.
Shen Zhenyi thought for a while and nodded.
Cynanchum Chinense was relieved. She began to train hard without using Zhenqi again. At this time, she found that the medicinal bath was really effective. After just one session, her body was a lot stronger. At least after running for a long time, her internal organs were able to withstand it.
"The human body is like an exquisite machine. If it doesn't exercise, it will rust. Among them, the internal organs exercise the least, so they are the most fragile. The first medicinal bath is mainly to strengthen the internal organs, so that they can withstand the fatigue of the body. "
In response to Cynanchum Chinense's question, Shen Zhenyi answered.
Cynanchum Chinense felt that it was reasonable. This training was also quite effective, so she suddenly felt confident again. Although she didn't know what the relationship between physical training and martial arts was, this was the path that Shen Zhenyi claimed to have walked, so her future should be bright.
However, three days later, the Cynanchum Chinense once again cried out in pain when she was soaked in the medicinal bath.
"Shen Zhenyi! You are a liar! "
"I clearly said that it would reduce the pain a little, but this time it's even more painful than last time!"
Cynanchum Chinense felt as if her body was no longer hers. She waved her white arms and cursed with the last of her strength.
With his back still facing her, Shen Zhenyi calmly said, "Originally, the first medicinal bath was supposed to nourish the internal organs, so of course the medicinal effects should be relatively mild. From the second medicinal bath onwards, the main effects will be focused on the bones, flesh, and meridians, so it should be ten times more painful. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to bear it, so I've already adjusted the prescription. "
If that was the case … then the pain had indeed been alleviated.
It was just that the two of them were not on the same page in terms of degree and standard.
Cynanchum Chinense felt as if her whole body was burning, and her mind was in a daze. She didn't know whether she should thank him or continue to curse. Then she softly fainted.
When she woke up, she smelled the aroma of porridge. When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying on a soft bed outside the White Pagoda, covered with a white gown.
This was the Third Young Master Shen's clothes, and it had a familiar scent.
Cynanchum Chinense's face instantly turned red — — she wasn't wearing anything. When normal people took a bath, they would naturally take off their clothes. After all, Shen Zhenyi was a gentleman and turned his head away the last time.
But this time, she fainted in the bathtub due to the pain, which was really unexpected.
If that was the case … … was it The Third Prince who fished her out completely naked and then covered her with his clothes?
When she thought of this, Cynanchum Chinense was so ashamed that she wanted to crawl into a hole and hide. Before she fainted, she had planned to denounce Shen Zhenyi's actions as soon as she woke up, but now she had completely forgotten about it.
Shen Zhenyi's back was facing her, and he was gently fanning the fire. The pot on the stove was emitting white steam, and a pot of thick porridge was boiling.
As if he had eyes on the back of his head, Cynanchum Chinense had just moved when he opened his mouth and said, "Your clothes are beside you. When you wake up, put on your clothes and get up. You can only eat breakfast after you finish your morning practice."
Shen Zhenyi opened the lid and scooped a small bowl of porridge for himself. He also took some bamboo shoots mixed with sesame oil, dried vegetables, and fermented bean curd to accompany the meal. He ate very happily.
So it's not for me to eat … …
Cynanchum Chinense only felt her stomach rumbling with hunger. She looked at the pot of porridge, put on her clothes hastily, and began her morning practice in a daze.
This little girl is really innocent.
Shen Zhenyi sipped the hot porridge.
However, the medicinal bath was too strong, causing Cynanchum Chinense to faint. This was also beyond his expectations. It seemed that he needed to consider and reduce a few medicinal herbs.
He frowned and began to think about how to modify the prescription. However, this way, the possibility of directly breaking through to the eighth level would be smaller.
Shen Zhenyi shook his head and felt that he didn't need to have such high expectations.
After all, in this Nine Serenities, there was no existence that could threaten him. Cynanchum Chinense's advancement was enough to cultivate a female disciple to solve a small problem.
As for the future, there was still time.
Shen Zhenyi deliberated for a moment and deleted the two most potent medicinal herbs.
Cynanchum Chinense's days of practice in the back mountain were repeated. Except for going down the mountain every few days to carry food and ingredients for the Third Young Master Shen, she spent most of her time in repetitive and boring practice.
Then, there was the painful medicinal bath every three days. Cynanchum Chinense didn't know whether it was because she was gradually adapting or because her pain resistance was increasing. In short, it didn't seem to be as painful as before.
In more than a month, the new disciples of the Abandoned Sword Villa had gradually adapted to life here.
And the Xuan Ranking had also begun to change dramatically.
"Most of the new disciples are talented people, but because they lack guidance, they are stuck in a bottleneck. After arriving at the Abandoned Sword Villa, they have the most suitable martial arts and the best teachers, so they will have a breakthrough in a short period of time. "
"Originally, the top of the Xuan Ranking were all disciples of famous sects, but in the past month, many young people of humble origins have caught up."
"Of course, Zhou Wenzi is still strong. After all, he has been famous for many years, and the gap between him and the people behind him is too big. Moreover, the Nine Dragons Reflection Wall he chose is the most suitable for his temperament. If he understands something, he should be able to break through to the seventh level of martial arts within the year. "
"Among them, Junior Sister Chu Xie 'er of the Blazing Sun Prefecture is impressive …"
Shen Baihe read the new disciple's report with a smile on his face.
Every time this happened, he felt like all the heroes in the world were in his grasp.
The Abandoned Sword Villa was the imperial court of the martial arts world.
And the Villa Master of the Abandoned Sword Villa should be the emperor of the martial arts world!
Although these new disciples belonged to different factions, as long as they stayed in the Abandoned Sword Villa for a long time, they would naturally become a part of the Abandoned Sword Villa and become the power of the Abandoned Sword Villa.
— My power.
Shen Baihe muttered to himself.
This Chu Xie 'er was really not simple. The Blazing Sun Prefecture had its own inheritance. In theory, this kind of disciple of a famous sect had the least room for improvement in the Abandoned Sword Villa. In particular, she was already in the fifth level of martial arts at the age of fourteen, and it seemed that her potential was almost exhausted. At first, Shen Baihe was not optimistic about her.
But in the past month, it was as if someone was driving her with a whip. She cultivated desperately and challenged everywhere.
Now, Chu Xie 'er's ranking had risen to the top twenty of the Xuan Ranking. This was almost the strongest position in the fifth level of martial arts. If she went any higher, the top ten would all be in the sixth level of martial arts.
Was it possible for a fourteen-year-old to break through the sixth level of martial arts?
Shen Baihe sneered. He did not like the stench that belonged to geniuses.
Fortunately … Chu Xie 'er was still within the range of his understanding and acceptance. If possible, it would also be a good choice to have a good relationship with this future Villa Master of the Blazing Sun Prefecture.
Granny Chi Huo was unruly and had never obeyed the orders of the Abandoned Sword Villa. The Blazing Sun Prefecture relied on the support of this person in the Top Ten Experts Ranking and could be considered a relatively strong independent force in the martial arts world.
If they could be incorporated in the next generation, it would be a great success for the Abandoned Sword Villa.
Shen Baihe completely did not consider the other successor of the Blazing Sun Prefecture, Cynanchum Chinense. This little girl lived in seclusion after coming to the Abandoned Sword Villa and was still outside the top hundred of the Xuan Ranking. It seemed that there was no competition at all. He pondered for a while, then summoned Chu Xie 'er alone. He gave her gentle words of encouragement and also generously transferred the resources of the villa, giving her a lot of precious herbs to nourish her qi and blood.
This was a timely help for Chu Xie 'er.
After she was frightened at the back of the mountain, she came back and felt that she was useless. She was actually scared to such an extent by the fake skills of a cripple.
— — Without true qi, no matter how strong a person was, they were still trash. She firmly believed this.
— — And a person whose meridians were completely broken could never have true qi. This was also a golden rule.
What was there to be afraid of?
Chu Xie 'er kept cheering herself up, but in the end, she did not dare to go to the back of the mountain to find trouble with Shen Zhenyi.
Since Shen Zhenyi said that she and Cynanchum Chinense would compete on the Xuan Ranking of the Abandoned Sword Villa, she raised her spirits and worked tirelessly to cultivate. She was intelligent and talented. Under the circumstances of working so hard and finding the right path, she actually crossed several small bottlenecks in one fell swoop and reached the peak of the fifth realm.
Because she advanced too quickly, Chu Xie 'er was afraid that her foundation would not be stable. She also wanted to send people to the Blazing Sun Prefecture to get some herbs to nourish her body. Shen Baihe generously gave them to her, so she would be impolite to refuse.
"With this batch of herbs, I will definitely be able to climb to the eleventh place in the Xuan Ranking within three months. The top ten of the Xuan Ranking are all in the sixth realm of martial arts. The eleventh place is already the limit. Cynanchum Chinense will never surpass me. "
"Even the world's number one Third Young Master Shen has misjudged me this time!"
She was full of confidence.
In fact, in these three months, everything basically went according to her expectations.
Chu Xie 'er's martial arts advanced by leaps and bounds. She used the ancient martial art Dali Sutra, which was combined with the Godly Fire Technique, to transform the Genuine Qi in her body into more tyrannical and overbearing. Her offense was swift and fierce, and her defense was stable. This allowed her to sit firmly on the first golden seat among the disciples trapped in the fifth realm of martial arts.
The eleventh place on the Xuan Ranking!
This was the third day of May, the last day of the three-month agreement.
Cynanchum Chinense was still at the one hundred and seventeenth place, and she did not even move.
Sometimes Chu Xie 'er even suspected that they were simply bluffing. They did not want to compete with her at all, and just wanted to find a decent excuse to admit defeat.
Even so, it was impossible to leave behind any future troubles.
Chu Xie 'er had already made up her mind.
This morning, she was in a good mood to eat breakfast when she heard a shocking piece of news.
That morning, Cynanchum Chinense, who had always been at the one hundred and seventeenth place on the Xuan Ranking, challenged Zhou Wenzi, who was first on the Xuan Ranking and was at the peak of the sixth realm of martial arts!
Chu Xie 'er's first reaction was — Junior Martial Sister must have been scared out of her wits.
