Chapter 115 The Sixth Young Master is About to Collapse
The Xie family's cultivation room.
This is a quiet room carved into the artificial mountain, specifically for the Xie family disciples to use when breaking through or practicing their skills.
The meditation room is surrounded by greenery and guarded by dedicated personnel to ensure absolute quiet.
Most importantly, the plant growing outside this cultivation room is a precious plant called the Qi-Gathering Solanum, which can automatically absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and release it around, forming a special place where the concentration of spiritual energy is far higher than that of the outside world.
Breaking through here is like taking a Qi-gathering pill; it's much easier than outside.
Ye Kang valued this point, which is why he asked Xie Yuan for a cultivation room to use whenever he needed it.
Inside the quiet room, Ye Kang sat cross-legged, circulating his Huangji Tongtian Gong, his true energy completing several small cycles.
Once his body was in optimal condition, he had a thought, and a section of jade lotus root appeared before him.
It was the jade lotus root that Chongxuzi gave him.
"This is the first time I've used such a normal method to cultivate a precious plant that can enhance the physical body. I wonder how much it will improve my physique."
Ye Kang's eyes lit up with anticipation, and he immediately began to activate the Catfish Demon Suppressing Water Technique.
To consume this precious plant, one must immediately absorb it using body-refining martial arts techniques.
The jade lotus root was a small piece, filled with cool spiritual energy. It was very sweet and crisp when it tasted, and Ye Kang ate it all in just a few bites.
Then, the Demon Body Refining Technique was activated, and dark patterns appeared all over his body. Suddenly, a strong, icy sensation came from his stomach.
"The medicinal power of this precious plant is too strong! Fortunately, my Demon Body Refining Technique is several times more powerful than ordinary body refining martial arts, so I can suppress it!"
He gritted his teeth, and layers of ink patterns emerged, their colors growing ever deeper.
This means that he is exerting all his physical strength, with every bone and every blood vessel working simultaneously to suppress the surging medicinal power.
This is the proper training method for a normal martial artist. Ye Kang has always used the system to break through, so he has never experienced it.
The medicinal power of the jade lotus root also subsided under the suppression of the physical body. Then, wisps of green spiritual energy seeped out from the body and began to spread throughout the whole body.
Before long, Ye Kang had become a "little green man" covered in jade.
Absorbing the precious plant cannot be rushed, otherwise its essence will be lost. Ye Kang thus entered his first short seclusion.
……
Two days later.
Within Jinling City, a series of exciting news stories began to circulate among martial artists.
Xie Yuan, who hadn't left Jinling for over a decade, actually made a secret move a few days ago!
This news shocked the entire city of Jinling, and all the major families began to feel nervous.
On the same day, Xie Jinghong, whose psychological trauma had just begun to subside, finally stepped out of the house accompanied by her brothers and sisters.
As expected, Xie Jinghong's first destination was Yangchun Lane.
His younger brother, Xie Yuxuan, quickly stopped him, whispering, "Brother, the patriarch forbids you from going to brothels anymore..."
The henchmen behind him echoed their agreement, fearing that the sixth young master would propose on the spot again.
The Xie family really can't afford to lose face like this.
Xie Jinghong remained aloof and arrogant. He flicked his sleeve and said, "I'm just going for a stroll on the street. I won't go into any brothels. If you're afraid, you don't have to follow me."
He snorted coldly and strode into Yangchun Lane. Xie Yuxuan and the others had no choice but to follow.
At first, Xie Jinghong was a little scared and even did a lot of mental preparation.
There was nothing he could do; the memory of Ye Kang dragging him for several blocks in public was still fresh in his mind.
Who in the entire city of Jinling doesn't know about such a shameful thing?
I fear that the moment I appear, countless people will cast mocking glances my way.
But so what? I am destined to become a genius and become a strong person. A little mockery is just the self-consolation of the weak.
If one is influenced by this, then one has truly fallen into a low position.
Xie Jinghong mustered her courage, straightened her chest and raised her head, appearing completely normal.
However, the expected mocking looks did not appear.
When the martial artists in Yangchun Lane saw him, they not only did not mock him, but even showed awe and envy.
Even a few innate martial artists looked at him with eyes full of admiration.
Xie Jinghong was stunned.
Xie Yuxuan and the others behind him were also stunned.
This isn't quite what I expected.
After walking a while longer, the situation not only did not change, but worsened, with more and more admiring gazes being cast upon them.
Xie Jinghong sneered, thinking to himself: Although they are a group of weaklings, at least they have some insight.
Just then, a group of spoiled young men walked towards them. Judging from their clothes, they must be the young masters and ladies of the Shi family.
As soon as the playboys saw Xie Jinghong, they immediately came forward to greet him with clasped hands.
One of them said, "So it's the Sixth Young Master. Greetings! I didn't expect you to come here again so soon after returning from the Grand Canal. You are truly a role model for us all. This is how a playboy should be!"
"?"
Xie Jinghong and Xie Yuxuan were both stunned.
Their faces were full of question marks.
"What Grand Canal?"
"Sixth Young Master, this isn't news we spread. The whole city knows about your situation now. If you don't like it, then we won't say anything more."
The spoiled sons of the Shi family thought Xie Jinghong was angry, and they all lowered their heads and backed away in fear.
Xie Jinghong frowned, sensing that something was amiss.
He turned his head and asked, "Yu Xuan, what's going on?"
Xie Yuxuan shook his head: "I don't know..."
The group looked puzzled, and before they knew it, they found themselves standing at the entrance of the brothel, surrounded by a group of inexplicably admiring gazes.
"Brother, didn't you say you weren't coming?"
"I was just passing by and happened to be thinking of going across the street for some tea."
Xie Jinghong arrived at the teahouse across the street with an air of elegance, just as a storyteller was performing inside.
The gavel slammed shut.
The storyteller said, "In the blink of an eye, Xie Jinghong, the 'Kirin of Jinling,' leaped high into the air, wielding a blood-red broadsword, and cleaved a massive gash that seemed to pierce the Milky Way. The Golden-Robed Ancestor of the Brocade Pavilion, though renowned, was, after all, old and frail. Xie Jinghong sliced him into eight pieces with a single stroke. It was truly a case of 'a dragon emerging from the sea to play in the shallows, a single stroke slicing down a mountain of crabs!'"
"Well said!"
"One more!"
"color."
……
Below, there was a chorus of cheers and countless tips, while the few people drinking tea on the outermost edge were completely stunned.
The tea I had placed to my lips was impossible to drink for a long time.
Xie Jinghong was dumbfounded.
When did I ever go and chop down the Golden-Robed Ancestor?
I don't even need a knife!
He quickly looked at Xie Yuxuan, who suddenly realized something and his expression turned pale.
"Brother, the last time Ye Kang and the Third Ancestor went out, it seems they went to the Grand Canal..."
Then another underling clapped his hands, suddenly realizing, "I've heard about it too! It's said that the Third Ancestor killed several martial artists and destroyed the entire Grand Canal Market!"
"Speaking of which, Ye Kang does use a knife!"
"Fuck you..."
Xie Yuxuan couldn't help but swear. Now he knew what was going on. It turned out that someone had impersonated his brother!
Just then, the storyteller struck the gavel again.
"Fellow readers, the Jinxiu Pavilion has already made a stern statement, vowing to be mortal enemies with the Xie family, especially Xie Jinghong! It's a blood feud! It's truly a blessing for Jinling to have such a daring and fierce person like him!"
"puff!"
Xie Jinghong finally couldn't hold back any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Brother! What's wrong with you!"
"Sixth Young Master, don't be in such a hurry! Isn't this a compliment?"
Xie Jinghong clutched her chest, her lips trembling, on the verge of collapse.
"I...I...Ye Kang! I will definitely kill you!"
