Pluck Star Peak's north, at a creek's pebbled shoal named Cliff Waterfall, turbulent waterfall water jets forth from the hundred-meter high cliff, completely smashing against the creek's pebbled shoal, the sound of waves never ceasing.
And within that waterfall's giant wave smashes, surprisingly stood a small and petite figure, stubbornly enduring the giant wave's smashes of the waterfall.
It could be seen that even being covered by the waterfall, that figure still bit down and supported their body, constantly emitting tender beastly roars!
Li Miaoxin looked at the scene before her eyes, inevitably feeling somewhat worried in her heart.
"Master, Little Junior Brother is only eight years old this year, his body has not finished growing, the cliff waterfall is so turbulent, it could crush his body frame."
Hearing the girl's worried words, Li Mingru to the side with disheveled hair, raised his wine gourd, lightly laughed and said: "If he gets injured, Master can also heal him."
"This is not a matter of whether it can be healed or not." The girl's expression was flustered and said: "Such a heavy waterfall, even mortal world adult warriors may not necessarily be able to withstand it, Little Junior Brother is only eight years old!"
Li Miaoxin was extremely anxious, but Li Mingru's expression still did not change much upon hearing this, only lightly and casually said: "Mortal world warriors practice martial arts, eating mundane rice, consuming mundane things.
But Little Deer? This past year, the spiritual food he ate, the eggs, chickens, ducks, fish of spiritual beasts were no small amount right? Although he cannot absorb the spiritual qi within these things, expanding his body should still be possible, rest assured, Master has it measured."
"But."
"No buts." Li Mingru stood atop a stubborn rock, looking at Lin Xiaolu in the waterfall with a smile and said: "Miaoxin, let Master ask you, why does Master clearly know Little Deer is destined to be unable to cultivate, and will only be a subpar warrior in the future, yet still unhesitatingly pay out of his own pocket to be willing to feed him those priceless spiritual foods?"
"This..." Li Miaoxin hesitated for a moment, for a time somewhat unable to answer, actually she had also wondered about this question before, but at the time she only felt Li Mingru's personality was as such, after all among the Nine Sects of Emei's elders Li Mingru was famed for being unrestrained, spending his days only caring for drinking fine wine and reading erotic books, not caring about anything else.
For someone like Lin Xiaolu who was destined to be unable to cultivate, if it were any other sect, they would have long ago kicked him out, yet feed him spiritual food to assist his martial arts training? It was simply wasteful!
"Master should be quite fond of Little Deer?" She guessed.
Li Mingru laughed unrestrainedly upon hearing this: "Indeed so."
"To tell the truth, Master never thought Lin Xiaolu could persevere.
From the start, regarding Little Deer wanting to practice martial arts, Master felt this was only a child's interest, and thought he would not last long before becoming lazy, slacking off, and eventually giving up.
But what was the result?
Miaoxin, we were all wrong, this past year, Little Deer buried his head in bitter training without anyone's urging, never slacking off for a single day, what kind of willpower is this?
In fact, even if he slacked off for a single day, Master would have cut off the spiritual food provisions, but this child, truly gave Master a lesson!"
As Li Mingru spoke, the gaze looking at Lin Xiaolu revealed more and more admiration.
"For a child, this is too rarely seen, too rarely seen, you must know that even for adults, very few can have self-discipline, diligence, and effort like him, he has great willpower!
Laziness is human nature, yet at this age Little Deer can break through this kind of nature, conquer himself, this won Master's respect!
So, as long as Little Deer is willing to keep working hard, I as his Master, will naturally go all out to help him practice martial arts!"
Speaking to the end, Li Mingru's gaze flickered with praise and said: "Miaoxin, Little Deer is not trash, he is a genius, he is a——hardworking genius!"
"Ahhhh!"
A clear and tender beastly roar sounded from the waterfall, within the giant waterfall waves, the boy who was continuously bent over suddenly stood up, roaring as he swung a fist towards the sky above his head.
"Puff... whoosh!"
The child's fist collided with the waterfall producing a loud boom, the falling water suddenly formed a whirlpool, swirling upwards, water splashing everywhere, the entire giant waterfall wave faintly showed signs of flowing in reverse!
Seeing this scene, Li Mingru's gaze lit up, looking at Li Miaoxin jokingly said: "Miaoxin, how was Little Deer's punch just now?"
Li Miaoxin looked at the eight year old boy who walked out from the waterfall, her heart was slightly dazed, and in her beautiful eyes was completely filled with astonishment.
After a long time, she evaluated: "If met at close range, Condensed Qi Realm below fifth layer, the one receiving this punch——dies!"
"Hahahaha, Boss, I horse stance in the waterfall for half an hour."
Lin Xiaolu ran over bare-chested, bragging arrogantly: "Are you going to praise me now? Come on I'm ready."
Seeing Lin Xiaolu's arrogant appearance, Li Mingru raised his wine gourd laughing scolding: "You're not humble at all."
Li Miaoxin went up and wrapped clothes on him, then squatted down to help him dry his body and hair, while drying jokingly said: "Little Deer, you must learn to be modest okay, people cannot be so ostentatious."
"Senior sister, I worked so hard precisely to be ostentatious, if I worked hard in the end to be modest, then I don't want to work that hard!"
"Pfft~" Li Miaoxin couldn't help laughing out loud, flicking his little nose admonishing: "You and your fallacies."
"Hehe~" Lin Xiaolu looked at Li Miaoxin wiping his body with a silly smile.
Seeing this intimate scene between the two siblings, Li Mingru raised his head guzzling wine from the gourd, thoroughly drinking a mouthful, after a strange expression he said: "In another month, you and Little Jade will have officially been at Emei for a full year, after a month you will undergo Emei's assessment, at that time those unable to reach Condensed Qi first layer, will be stripped of inner sect disciple status, becoming outer sect disciples, you know right?"
Lin Xiaolu nodded: "I know, Senior Sister told me before."
Li Mingru hmmed and smiled asking: "Then what do you plan to do? You cannot cultivate, naturally you won't step into Condensed Qi first layer, according to the rules, you will definitely become an outer sect disciple."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaolu lowered his head without making a peep, his little fists clenched tightly, his small face full of unwillingness.
Seeing him with a bitter hatred expression, Li Mingru couldn't help laughing twice, then said: "In the next month, you don't need to go to Literacy Hall for literacy lessons, Mr. Yang said your literacy is very quick, you've basically grasped the current curriculum, just focus on practicing martial arts, every day horse stance at the waterfall bottom for half an hour, the remaining time also all used for practicing martial arts."
"Boss, I'm about to become an outer sect disciple anyway right?" Lin Xiaolu said dejectedly: "What's the point in continuing practicing martial arts?"
"It is so, but if you can defeat all the junior disciples of Emei participating in the assessment with you, Master will have reason to apply to the Sect Leader, to allow you to continue being an inner sect disciple."
Lin Xiaolu looked at Li Mingru in astonishment: "Defeat everyone?"
"Right, defeat everyone!"
Li Mingru smiled and said: "Haven't you always wanted to prove martial arts isn't inferior to cultivating? Then prove it for everyone to see, use your hard work this past year, defeat all your classmates!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiaolu was elated, hands on hips laughing loudly: "Defeating them will be easy! I feel like I'm number one under heaven now! Ohhhh roar roar roar!"
Seeing his arrogant appearance, Li Mingru suddenly felt itchy hands.
This brat really did work hard, but also really is smackable!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
