Chapter 60

When Zheng Xuan saw the content of the letter, his expression was the same as the others; the more they read, the worse their faces became. By the end, everyone fell into a state of madness, cursing out loud: "This Zheng Shiyi has really gone too far! Too far!"

"How long has he been in the sect, and he has already caused such a big mess for the Zheng family!"

"He dared to snatch Xu Sa's belongings. Song'er sent someone to make him apologize to Xu Sa, but he not only refused to listen, he even killed the people Song'er sent on the life-and-death platform!"

"Later, he was caught by the Law Enforcement Hall and thrown into the dungeon. He refused to be disciplined and killed people in the dungeon. After being punished, he was still不服气 and dared to challenge the three trials, disregarding the advice of the elders of the Three Trials Hall."

"He tore his face with the other party, killing the person who put him in the Law Enforcement Hall and Xu Sa!"

"The Law Enforcement Hall has a very high status in the sect. Disciples who offend them can't live peacefully in the sect. The Xu family behind Xu Sa has a strong background."

"Let's not even talk about this. Xu Sa's older brother is the examiner for the outer disciples to enter the inner sect. He killed Xu Sa, so can our Zheng family's disciples still enter the inner sect no matter how excellent they are?"

"This kid has ruined our Zheng family's future! Song'er went to make him apologize, but he not only refused to listen, he even challenged Song'er and others to the life-and-death platform."

"Song'er, being family, was reluctant to hurt him, but he went to the life-and-death platform and, disregarding brotherly affection, killed four of Song'er's people!"

"Those were four people! Each one of them was an elite of our Zheng family! Especially Song'er, he is the hope of the Zheng family, the key to our rise!"

"Who would have thought that this beast would be so heartless! If we don't kill this beast, our Zheng family will be destroyed by him!"

Each of them gritted their teeth, making a grinding sound, wishing they could kill Zheng Shiyi at the Xuanming Sect right now.

Zheng Ping finally understood what had happened from their curses, clenching his fists in anger and roaring: "Zheng Shiyi, I will definitely kill you!"

His eyes were filled with intense killing intent. Zheng Shiyi had beaten him to the point of being covered in bruises not long ago, and this anger had been pent up in his heart, waiting to be released. He never thought that after such a short time, his brother would be killed by that kid.

He stomped his feet in anger and urged Zheng Xuan and the others: "Grandfather, that kid killed my brother. Let's go and kill him now!"

The others shook their heads repeatedly: "Young Master Ping, that must not be done. The Xuanming Sect has strict rules, and we outsiders cannot step into it."

"Even if we could get in, what could we do to that kid? He is now a disciple of the Xuanming Sect. If we kill him there, it would be a provocation to the Xuanming Sect."

"Would the Xuanming Sect let us off? If they intervene, the matter will not be so simple!"

Zheng Xuan's face instantly turned dark. He glared at the speaker and said coldly: "So your meaning is, since he is a disciple of the Xuanming Sect, I can't touch him?"

The man hurriedly waved his hands to explain: "That's not what I mean. It's true that the kid is a disciple of the Xuanming Sect and can receive protection from them. But if he leaves the Xuanming Sect, no one can protect him."

"As long as he returns to the family, we can kill him, and who can prove that we did it?"

A gray-robed elder spoke up: "Fifth Elder, you are right! As long as the kid is not in the Xuanming Sect, we can do whatever we want to him."

"But the problem is, the kid is now in the sect. If he doesn't come out, we can't do anything to him."

"We can't just wait for him to come back on his own, can we? You've seen his progress over the past year. If we let him continue, what will happen?"

"So, what we need to do now is find a way to bring this kid back."

An elder who had not given much advice nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we should quickly find a way to bring that kid back."

Zheng Xuan agreed, realizing that if they didn't bring Zheng Shiyi back to the family, he couldn't deal with him. Moreover, Zheng Shiyi had gained the strength to kill Zheng Song and others in such a short time after entering the sect, which meant he must have received some great fortune.

If this fortune were used on Zheng Ping, Zheng Ping could quickly become another key disciple of the family.

Thinking of this, Zheng Xuan nodded: "Let's do it your way. Quickly find a way to bring that kid back!"

While the Zheng family was secretly discussing how to act, Zheng Shiyi, after resting briefly after the arena, hurried to practice.

Zheng Qi's words before he left reminded him that after killing Zheng Song, given Zheng Xuan's character, this matter would not be over. He would definitely come to cause trouble.

Moreover, Tian Kun's gaze when he left was not friendly. Therefore, Zheng Shiyi decided to improve his cultivation as quickly as possible.

"Rumble!"

Zheng Shiyi stood under the waterfall, which, pouring down from a thousand-foot cliff, seemed like a water monster trying to swallow the world, fiercely smashing into Zheng Shiyi's body.

As the sound of the waterfall grew louder, Zheng Shiyi drew the Shadowless Blade and slashed it out the moment the waterfall hit him.

A streak of light plunged into the cascading water, and the splashing water droplets reflected seven colors in the sunlight.

On the nearest part of the waterfall, the marks of the Shadowless Blade's slash were faintly visible. He knew that when he could slash through the waterfall with one strike, the power of the Shadowless Blade would increase significantly.

He tightly gripped the Shadowless Blade and hacked at the waterfall with wild strikes, the bright blade marks continuously lighting up in the water.

His body, battered by the water, became increasingly weak. He finally threw away the Shadowless Blade and used his fists, infused with martial intent, to strike the waterfall.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The waterfall emitted continuous cracking sounds, and the water droplets, thrown into the air, hit the distant stone walls and splashed back onto his face, blurring his vision.

Zheng Shiyi paid no attention and continued practicing.

His body, battered by the waterfall, was covered in wounds and extremely tired.

The recovery speed of his soul seed could not keep up, so Zheng Shiyi had to leave the waterfall to rest for a moment. When his body was almost recovered, he returned to the waterfall to practice again.

He continued practicing without stopping.

"Let's stop here for today!"

With his last punch, Zheng Shiyi, exhausted, walked out of the waterfall.

"The body's endurance limit can be expanded bit by bit. I need to make my body remember this limit to improve my endurance."

Zheng Shiyi did not rest as he usually did but walked straight down the mountain.

"Thump, thump!"

As he approached a cave entrance, his soul seed suddenly started to beat abnormally! And... he could feel that another martial soul was beating in his soul seed.

Especially when he reached the cave entrance, his soul seed beat even more violently!

"Could the soul seed be sensing something?" With this doubt, Zheng Shiyi entered the cave.

As he moved forward, his soul seed beat more and more violently. After entering the cave for about ten meters, Zheng Shiyi saw a stone bed, and the soul seed's beating seemed to be because of this bed.

This bed? Zheng Shiyi took a step forward, and his soul seed beat even more intensely. When he reached the stone bed, the soul seed's beating reached its peak.

So tired! Zheng Shiyi suddenly felt his body's fatigue reach its limit, his eyelids drooping. Finally... his legs gave out, and he fell onto the bed.

Zheng Shiyi quickly fell asleep, and in his dream, he vaguely felt his soul seed slowly growing.

After an unknown amount of time, a tall, slender woman in a pink robe, with a face like a melon seed and long hair, her face cold and frosty, staggered into the cave with a long sword.

She didn't take a few steps before suddenly stopping and turning her head to say, "Come out! Even if I'm injured, you won't have a chance."

As she spoke, a woman in a white robe, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise and a sweet smile, jumped out from behind and said, "Oh, beautiful Ding Yue, you can still be so alert even when injured?"

"Hand over the Soul Nurturing Pearl, and I'll leave."

Ding Yue gave her a cold look, "Bai Lian, I'm injured, but you're injured too! Get lost..."

Zheng Shiyi was awakened by their voices and sat up.

Bai Lian looked at Zheng Shiyi in surprise, her beautiful eyes wide with shock, her charming red lips slowly opening: "Man, there's a man on your bed!"

She turned her gaze to Ding Yue, covering her lips with her hand and laughing, "I never thought you, Ding Yue, who usually looks so cold and holy, would have a man on your bed!"

"Interesting! Hiding a man..."

Hearing this, Zheng Shiyi realized he had climbed into someone else's bed, his face showing an awkward smile as he hurriedly called out to Bai Lian, "Beautiful lady... it's not what you think."

Then, he turned to Ding Yue and apologized, "Is this your bed? I'm sorry, I climbed into the wrong bed. I didn't mean to..."

Ding Yue's gaze grew colder. This man daring to climb into her bed was a disgrace to her reputation. Before Zheng Shiyi could finish speaking, she thrust her sword at him.

The cold long sword, accompanied by a buzzing sound, was instantly upon him.

Zheng Shiyi quickly rolled off the bed, narrowly avoiding her strike.

"This woman's cultivation is too strong! If she weren't injured, I would have been killed by her sword!"

Zheng Shiyi sighed at her unreasonable behavior, "I just climbed into the wrong bed, and I've already apologized. Why do you want to kill me?"

"Whoosh!"

She thrust her sword again, even faster and more powerful than before.

Zheng Shiyi saw her raise her hand, and her sword was already upon him.
