"When my mother was seriously ill, it was this expert who stabbed her with a few golden needles.”
"In just a few breaths, my mother's sickly appearance changed and she became full of energy.”
The woodcutter said as if it was a matter of fact.
In his description, the expert on the mountain was omniscient and omnipotent.
It has the ability to revive the dead, flesh and bones.
There was also the boundless power to summon the wind and rain, to change the world.
Xiao Huohuo's eyes lit up and his body trembled.
The image of an ethereal and independent expert immediately appeared in his mind.
Opportunity!
This was a huge opportunity!
If I can get this expert's guidance, I'm sure he can solve the problem of my inability to cultivate.
Thinking of this, Xiao Huohuo hurriedly asked,"May I ask where the expert lives and how I should find him?”
The woodcutter pointed at the mountaintop.
"That hermit was unwilling to interact with mortals and built a hut at the top of the mountain.”
"As for whether you can see him, that will depend on your luck.”
"Thank you for your guidance."
Xiao Huohuo bowed and walked towards the top of the mountain with a heart full of expectations.
What he didn't know was that there was a rhetorical device called exaggeration in this world.
As for Woodcutter, he was even more skilled in using exaggerated techniques.
Seeing Xiao Huohuo walking up the mountain, the woodcutter grinned.
He picked up the shoulder pole, hummed a tune, and walked home.
…
At the top of the mountain, the sun was already setting.
Ye QingChen was lying on a rattan chair under the shade of a tree, munching on melon seeds. His eyes were slightly open, enjoying the refreshing breeze.
Not far from him, Djangloy was holding a supreme-grade spirit sword and continuously practicing sword moves.
As spiritual energy surged, the sword emitted a bright red light. Even the surrounding air seemed to have risen a few degrees.
"Cultivation is really hard work."
Ye QingChen couldn't help but sigh.
"Yi 'er, you should rest for a while when you're almost done. Don't tire yourself out.”
"Master, I'm not tired."
Janoy wiped the sweat off his forehead, but he didn't stop.
Previously, her comprehension of the sword had reached a bottleneck. The more she practiced, the more confused she became.
Now, her master had guided her through the maze and given her a top-grade magic weapon.
Every time she practiced, she would gain new insights.
The more he practiced, the more carefree he felt. How could he be willing to stop just like that?
Seeing that Jiang Luoyi was focused on his sword training, Ye QingChen didn't say anything more and closed his eyes to rest on the rattan chair.
It was a good thing that his disciple was willing to cultivate. If he broke through, he might even be able to enjoy the system's rewards. Naturally, there was no need to stop him.
While the two of them were talking, Xiao Huohuo finally climbed to the top of the mountain.
Foundation Establishment Realm?
He looked like he was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and his magic power was extremely pure. Why had he never heard of such a person before?
Xiao Huohuo's gaze was first attracted by the figure of the woman in red dancing with the sword, and his eyes couldn't help but widen slightly.
Although his cultivation was not there now, he still had basic eyesight. When the woman's sword light slashed out, it made his heart instinctively palpitate.
Wait, this is a supreme-grade magic weapon!
Soon, Xiao Huohuo's gaze fell on the sword that was emitting a fiery red light, and his face was filled with shock.
Their Xiao family did not have such a good magic weapon.
Even when he was a genius that everyone had their eyes on, he only used middle-grade magic tools.
As for now…
Xiao Huohuo smiled bitterly.
His magic tool had long been taken back by the clan.
"Who is it?"
Sensing an unfamiliar aura, Jiang Luoyi stopped her sword practice and shouted.
In an instant, Xiao Huohuo felt that vigilant gaze lock onto him.
As long as he dared to act rashly, he would be beheaded in the next moment.
"Don't misunderstand. I didn't mean to disturb you.”
This time, he had come up the mountain just to acknowledge a master. He quickly explained.
"Master?"
Jiang Luoyi sized up the young man before him, then sheathed his sword and stood up.
"Master, someone is looking for you!" She called out in a crisp voice.
"Who is looking for me?"
As the voice rang out, Ye QingChen walked over.
Soon, his gaze landed on the youth.
His face looked a little tender, and he was about fifteen or sixteen years old. His lips were tightly pursed, and he seemed a little nervous.
While Ye QingChen was sizing up Xiao Huohuo, the latter was also carefully looking at Ye QingChen.
What he did not expect was that the reclusive expert was actually so young.
He looked like he was in his twenties, and his eyes were warm. It was as if there was a sea of stars hidden in his eyes, making him look extremely deep.
His face was incomparably handsome, and his body exuded an indescribable elegance. He was truly a god-like figure.
"It's you. You want to take me as your master?”After sizing him up for a while, Ye QingChen took the initiative to ask.
He had also heard the conversation between Jeroy and the youth.
"Yes, please give me some pointers, senior."
Xiao Huohuo replied, his eyes filled with determination.
"Why do you want to be my disciple? Judging from your attire, your family should be either rich or noble.”Ye QingChen was a little puzzled.
At this age, why didn't he stay at home to enjoy life? Why did he come out to worship a master? He was really not afraid of being cheated.
"Because I want to become stronger!"
"I want to trample all those who look down on me under my feet.”
"I want them to know."
"Every dog has its day. Don't bully the poor young.”
Xiao Huohuo clenched his fists tightly. The ring on his finger flashed with black light, and his eyes revealed a strong unwillingness.
Ye QingChen heard the familiar words and glanced at the ring on his hand. His expression couldn't help but change.
"Do you have a fiancée?"
