Chapter 31

Over the course of more than twenty days, Li She led Wu Xingyun in their escape, evading Li Qiushui's pursuit. Along the way, Li She diligently practiced martial arts, mastering the Six Yang Palms of Tianshan, the Plum Blossom Hands of Tianshan, and the Life and Death Mark. This inevitably earned him the title of a genius from Wu Xingyun.

During this period, they encountered a group of people led by Wu Lao Da who were searching for them. Unlike Xuzhu, Li She had no soft heart. Without even listening to their opening remarks, he directly shot through their heads with the Cold Fire Finger technique.

"Ha ha ha, Li She, the Cold Fire Technique you created is indeed astonishingly powerful. It seems its achievement is no less than the great martial arts of our Xianyao Sect. However, although your power has reached the innate realm, you lack the innate realm of thought. Otherwise, your Cold Fire Technique would be even more powerful," Wu Xingyun said, looking at the bodies of Wu Lao Da and his group.

Wu Xingyun, who was never lenient with those who betrayed her, especially during her prime, would never let these traitors die so easily without torturing them to death.

"Senior, you also mentioned the innate realm of thought? My master mentioned it too. What exactly is the innate realm of thought?" Li She asked, puzzled. Wu Xingyun was a master of martial arts in the Tianlong world, and her insight was naturally excellent.

"He he he, reaching the innate realm allows one to transform and live a long life! This is achieved through the accumulation of time. Over this long period, one naturally comprehends their own realm of thought. However, you possess a profound innate power through Wuyazi's internal energy transfer, so you cannot fully utilize it," Wu Xingyun explained carefully.

"Oh? Then what is your innate realm of thought, Senior?" Li She asked.

Wu Xingyun did not hide it. A momentum that did not match her appearance immediately emerged, and the domineering and unparalleled aura made Li She feel short of breath.

"Did you feel it? My innate realm of thought is 'domineering'!" Wu Xingyun said proudly.

Although the scene was comical, Li She could not laugh. Imagining a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl acting like a queen was absurd, but Li She truly felt the pressure of the aura.

"No wonder you can make the demons of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands submit. Indeed, you are exceptionally domineering," Li She sighed.

"Yes, you are not wrong. Martial arts have no limits. With your exceptional talent, I believe you will surpass us in time," Wu Xingyun nodded. Li She, who could apply knowledge to new situations and learn by analogy, was naturally much better than the dull Xuzhu. A dedicated teacher and a focused student. Wu Xingyun also had the idea of promoting the Xianyao Sect, so she taught with particular seriousness.

At this moment, a seductive voice reached Wu Xingyun and Li She's ears. "My dear senior sister, I didn't expect you to still have a young heart, finding such a charming person." A seductive, veiled woman floated over. Although her face was covered, her soul-stirring eyes made one involuntarily fall into them.

The fiery-tempered Wu Xingyun immediately cursed, "Li Qiushui, you wench. Your promiscuity has caused my junior brother so much suffering. Now you want to harm me? This is my junior brother's disciple. Do you want to kill me in front of him?" She turned to Li She and said, "Li She, this wench is the one who ruined your master's life. Now, as the head of the Xianyao Sect, you must clean up the sect!"

Li Qiushui sized up Li She. Seeing that his power was no less than hers, she said, "Are you my senior brother's disciple? I am your master's wife, your senior aunt. Come and pay your respects!"

"What kind of aunt? You have already married the king of Xixia and betrayed the sect! How can you still have the nerve to say that? You promiscuous wench!" Wu Xingyun cursed.

"Evil woman, you spread rumors and sowed discord between us in front of my senior brother! You have a heart of a snake and a scorpion, disfiguring my face. I will settle this score with you today," Li Qiushui tore off her veil, revealing a face full of scars, disfiguring her once beautiful face that resembled Wang Yuyan.

"Wench, if you hadn't attacked me during a critical moment of my practice, causing me to suffer a mental breakdown and remain a child forever, how could my junior brother have been blinded by you? You have ruined my life, and I have only scarred your face, not taken your life. That's already lenient!" Wu Xingyun scolded, hands on her hips.

The two old rivals began to expose each other's past, and Li She felt a headache. After a half-hour of mutual cursing, they started to fight.

Although Wu Xingyun's martial arts had not fully recovered, she relied on her exquisite techniques to engage Li Qiushui. While fighting, she shouted, "Nephew Li, don't you quickly avenge your master? Clean up the sect and kill this wench!"

"Hum! Don't listen to this old evil woman's nonsense. After I kill this evil woman, I will naturally teach you the great martial arts of the Xianyao Sect, and you can choose any prince of Xixia!" Li Qiushui hurriedly offered more favorable conditions.

Li She smiled and said, "Both are flesh and blood, one is my senior, and one is my junior! Sigh, why must you make it difficult for me? However, I promised my senior to protect her until her power is fully restored. So, junior, Li She offends you."

As he spoke, Li She moved like a dragon, using the Cold Fire Technique's internal energy method. He instantly used the Seven Injuries Fist, which he had not used for a long time. In front of Li Qiushui, a great master, he dared not use the Xianyao Sect's martial arts. Instead, he used the Seven Injuries Fist, a technique not seen in the Tianlong Babu.

The Seven Injuries Fist's power was versatile, combining hardness and softness. It was ruthless and domineering, and its changes were extraordinary. For a moment, the broad and open techniques combined with the Cold Fire True Qi, making Li Qiushui struggle to keep up.

Li She seized an opportunity, grabbed Wu Xingyun, and quickly fled.

Li Qiushui, frozen by Li She's cold true qi, had to use her power to dispel the cold. She glared at the fleeing Li She and Wu Xingyun and cursed, "Old evil woman, you won't escape from my hands!"

According to Wu Xingyun's plan, they directly fled to the Xixia Imperial Palace, where Wang Yuyan was. Li She planned to leave the Tianlong Babu world after obtaining the internal energy of Wu Xingyun and Li Qiushui, so he did not provoke the Xixia princess.

Day by day, Wu Xingyun's voice began to sound older. Li She knew this was a sign of her power recovering. The Eight Extremes and Six Directions Supreme Power was indeed powerful and domineering, but it had its pros and cons. The Eight Extremes and Six Directions Supreme Power could make one's power 200% more effective and domineering, but it also changed one's personality. As her power reached its peak, Wu Xingyun's every word and action exuded that domineering aura.

However, the downside was also significant. This technique would revert to a child every thirty years, losing all power and requiring a complete restart. This technique was suitable for men to practice, and Wu Xingyun's incredible martial arts talent was truly remarkable, as she managed to bring the Eight Extremes and Six Directions Supreme Power to its peak, which was no easy feat.

Calculating, Wu Xingyun would recover to her prime in three days. However, according to the plot, Li Qiushui would come today.

"Senior sister... Senior sister... My dear senior sister... Where are you?" Li Qiushui's seductive voice penetrated the layers of obstacles and reached the ice cellar.

Wu Xingyun, who was practicing with her eyes closed, opened her eyes and said fiercely, "This lewd woman has come so quickly, but the Xixia Imperial Palace is so large. It will take some time to find us. Hum! Wait until my power is fully restored, and I will deal with you!"

Li She smiled indifferently. In this cold environment, it was the perfect setting for practicing the Cold Fire Technique's cold true qi. Continuously refining the cold true qi made it more pure. Combining the water-to-ice technique of the Life and Death Mark with the Cold Fire Finger significantly increased the Cold Fire Finger's power. Originally, the Cold Fire Finger could only shoot out cold true qi, but now it could shoot out ice crystals.

The day passed with Li Qiushui's seductive voice. Gradually, her words became more and more excessive, eventually sounding like a phone sex call. "Senior sister, my senior brother and I live a blissful life, hidden in the Wuliang Mountains of Dali, having children and grandchildren. Every day we are loving and happy. You don't know how gentle and considerate my senior brother is, making my body feel so relaxed," Li Qiushui's seductive voice described.

Wu Xingyun's fiery temper could not bear it. Originally, she was at a critical moment of practicing the Eight Extremes and Six Directions Supreme Power, and her mind was restless. With a 'pu' sound, her true qi was blocked, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

"You lewd woman, you have strayed and disgraced the sect! How could my junior brother like you? He has suffered a lonely life because of you!" Wu Xingyun could not help but curse.

"Ha ha ha, Senior sister, are you really hiding in my Xixia Imperial Palace? I will come to find you!"

Li She looked at Wu Xingyun and sighed, "Senior, why do you do this? Your power will be fully restored in one day. Why rush?"

"Hum! I have lived long enough. Today, I will settle this with Li Qiushui. Child, this is my business with Li Qiushui today, and you must not interfere. If I die today, please take my ashes back to Tianshan." Wu Xingyun then sat down to meditate. Since Li Qiushui knew Wu Xingyun was in the Xixia Imperial Palace, it would not take long for her to find them.

Li She shook his head helplessly. He had always wondered why Wu Xingyun would fail at the last moment, enduring the torture of Wu Lao Da's nonsense for so many days but unable to withstand Li Qiushui's few words. For a master with high martial arts and a strong mind, it was incomprehensible.

Today, Li She finally understood. Everything was fate, and the world's will determined the course of events. The world was like a giant computer, with programs setting the fate of everyone in the world, and any errors would be corrected promptly.

Li She was like a virus. In the world of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber," he was detected by the antivirus system, triggering a system hunt. This time, when he saw Wu Xingyun's efforts come to naught, he felt an invisible force enveloping the entire ice cellar. The pressure, combined with Li Qiushui's seductive voice, made it impossible for Wu Xingyun to withstand.
