Chapter 19 How Did I End Up Self-Defeating?

Ye Yan is dead.

There was a hole in the center of his eyebrows, and blood was flowing out of it.

As for Ye Qiubai? He had already disappeared from the Ye Family.

Obviously, he had left.

The Patriarch of the Ye Family looked at this scene with a very gloomy expression.

After all, Ye Yan was his chosen successor, but now he was killed by Ye Qiubai.

Seeing Ye Qiubai leave smoothly, Ye Qing no longer worried, relaxing with a smile.

The Patriarch of the Ye Family looked at Ye Qing, snorted coldly, and said, "From now on, Ye Ling will take over as the head of the family!"

Hearing this, Ye Ling was stunned, but he couldn't be happy. After all, his son had been killed.

Ye Qing shrugged, not caring. For him, now that Ye Qiubai had regained his strength, it was better than anything else.

And now, the instigator Ye Qiubai was sitting in a cave outside Tianyuan City.

He was adjusting his breath.

After all, pulling out the Qingyun Sword earlier had caused a great backlash to him.

At the same time, Ye Qiubai was also secretly amazed.

Just pulling out a little bit of the sword body could forcefully kill someone under the eyes of such a strong figure as the Patriarch of the Ye Family.

Then, if the sword were completely pulled out, perhaps even the Patriarch would not be able to withstand a single strike?

But if the Qingyun Sword were completely pulled out, the overwhelmingly powerful sword intent would probably instantly destroy Ye Qiubai...

Thinking of what Jiang Tianhan had said before.

The Sunset Dynasty...

The ruler of the Northern Territory, the current national lord, is also a super strong figure who currently ranks fourth on the Martial Arts List of the Four Territories.

However, Ye Qiubai was not discouraged at all.

For him, even the Sunset Dynasty might not be impossible to surpass!

Thinking of this, a sword intent rose from Ye Qiubai's body.

Straight to the sky, with an unstoppable momentum!

The sword heart is firm, unstoppable, capable of cutting through everything!

The sword intent broke through!

Now, Ye Qiubai could be called a sword master!

Two days later, Ye Qiubai finished his comprehension and left the place, heading towards the direction of the Hidden Dao Academy.

He didn't know if his master felt lonely. After all, there was only him as a disciple.

When he left, there was no one to accompany his master or talk to him, and no one to cook for him.

...

At the same time.

Grass hut.

A woman frowned and walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of fish soup.

She put it in front of Lu Changsheng and said coldly, "Can you give me some guidance now?"

During this period.

Lu Changsheng had shocked her too much.

From the beginning, she couldn't see through him.

The sword intent that emanated from him, more substantial than ordinary sword intent, was filled with the power of rules!

Even in her previous life, Hongying had never seen such a sword intent.

And the willow tree on the cliff was obviously spiritual, although it had no breath.

But it made her feel a kind of vague fear.

The birds on the wutong tree were even more attracted to Hongying by blood.

Terrifyingly, there was even a sense of suppression looming!

Not only that.

Even Lu Changsheng's understanding of martial arts had greatly shocked Hongying.

A casual sentence, a pointer, could make Hongying have some comprehension!

You should know that she was the Great Emperor in her previous life!

Her understanding of martial arts can be said to be top-notch in this world.

It can be imagined how much Lu Changsheng's understanding of martial arts surpassed her!

This was also the reason why Hongying actively sought guidance.

But guidance wasn't given for free.

Coincidentally, after Ye Qiubai left, there was no one to cook for him, and he was too lazy to cook.

So, in exchange for cooking, as long as Hongying cooked three meals a day, Lu Changsheng would give her guidance once.

You should know that Hongying had never cooked in tens of thousands of years.

Lu Changsheng looked at the fish soup in front of him, smiled lightly, and nodded, "Not bad, much better than that black mess before."

Then he took a sip.

"Mmm, at least it's edible."

Hongying snorted angrily.

When has she, as the Empress, been treated like this?

"Can we start now? Hurry up and teach me!"

"Don't be impatient, let me finish eating first."

And so, Hongying sat across from Lu Changsheng, watching him eat bite by bite.

But Lu Changsheng ate too slowly, each bite was savored and swallowed slowly.

This made Hongying a bit impatient.

Suddenly, Hongying was startled.

Yes, when did she become so impatient?

Just waiting for such a short time, and she was already feeling annoyed?

Realizing this, Hongying immediately crossed her legs and adjusted her mentality.

Mentality.

It's very important on the path of cultivation, sometimes it might be neglected.

When a person is anxious, there may be no progress in cultivation.

In severe cases, it may even lead to demonic possession!

Cultivation regresses, damaging the foundation!

Only by maintaining a calm state can one comprehend more things.

This is a truth that every cultivator understands.

However.

Sometimes the simpler things are, the easier they are to forget.

Like Hongying now.

Eager to recover and improve her strength, but ignoring the fact that her mentality is no longer suitable for cultivation.

Now that she realized it, she immediately began to adjust.

Lu Changsheng finished eating.

Seeing that Hongying was still meditating, he shrugged and tidied up the bowls and chopsticks casually.

The next day, Hongying was still meditating.

The third day, the same.

Until the fifth day...

Hongying slowly opened her eyes, a gleam of light flashed in them!

Her aura burst out!

Breakthrough, Water Overflowing Realm!

Naturally and smoothly!

After the Golden Core stage, it is the Purple Mansion stage, followed by the Qi Sea stage, and after the Qi Sea stage, it is the Water Overflowing Realm.

Ye Qing was at the early stage of the Water Overflowing Realm.

And the Patriarch of the Ye Family had already reached the peak of the Water Overflowing Realm!

Hongying let out a long breath, a beautiful smile appearing on her lips.

Lu Changsheng came out at this time and smiled, "Did you break through?"

Hongying nodded, then bowed to Lu Changsheng, "Thank you for your guidance."

Huh?

Lu Changsheng was stunned. Did he guide her these days?

Hongying smiled and said, "You knew that I had a problem with my mentality, so you deliberately made me cook, letting me discover my own mentality problem, right?"

Lu Changsheng: "???"

I didn't, I didn't, don't make things up.

I just wanted you to cook for me, that's all.

Hongying continued, "Otherwise, with your current cultivation, you would have reached the stage of Qi Refining long ago. Why would you eat ordinary food every day? Besides, the food I made is not delicious."

When she said the last point, Hongying couldn't help but blush.

Lu Changsheng was completely dumbfounded.

Why do the people around me like to imagine things?

I clearly didn't think like that...

Then, suddenly, Hongying knelt down in front of Lu Changsheng, bowing to him, "There's no distinction between who learns first and who learns later. The one who reaches the peak should be the teacher. Please accept me as your disciple!"

Lu Changsheng: "..."

I haven't done anything yet.

How did... you conquer ownself?
