Chapter 287 (1/2)

<hr>

Sinking Sword Peak, Fierce Gale Cliff.

Lin Xuanzhi finished training for the day. His body was full of cuts from the sharp winds and shards of broken leaves. Even his face had some new scars.

A few hours later, Lin Xuanzhi’s clothes were drenched and the spiritual Qi in his body was almost exhausted.

However, he did not complain, because Lin Xuanzhi could truly feel his endurance and strength growing.

“, you actually hurt your face again today; that hurts my heart so much. Hurry and find Senior Martial Brother to apply some medicine for you.” As soon as Lin Xuanzhi came out of the Fierce Gale Cliff, Wan Yitong walked up to him.

When he saw the bloodstains on Lin Xuanzhi’s face, Wan Yitong couldn’t help sighing with disapproval, “You really are capable. Even Bei s.h.i.+tian could no longer hold up after seven days of training in Fierce Gale Cliff. You’ve actually been training there for ten consecutive days, and you even stayed there for ten whole hours each day.”

In addition to these vigorous winds and broken leaves, the weather on Fierce Gale Cliff could change from icy-cold winter to intensely-hot summer in the span of a single day, and all the weather conditions were on the extreme ends of the spectrum to boot, which was simply beyond normal people’s tolerance.

The wintry weather here reached such low temperatures that it was able to freeze people’s hair into icicles, while the sizzling-hot heat could make people feel the pain of being baked from inside out.

It was precisely because Bei s.h.i.+tian was a person from the bitter cold Northern arctic region that he had no choice but to end his Fierce Gale Cliff training, as he couldn’t stand the fiery heat environment that felt like lava h.e.l.l.

There was a rule on Sinking Sword Peak that stated that any disciple undergoing training in Fierce Gale Cliff had only one chance to train. Whenever they voluntarily stopped was whenever they would be regarded as having used up their opportunity; they would never be able to enter Fierce Gale Cliff to train again without the Peak Master’s permission.

When the Bei s.h.i.+tian underwent his Fierce Gale Cliff training, he had just been accepted under Esteemed Lan Yue’s door. If he were given another chance right now, he would definitely rather die of heat than quit. Moreover, Bei s.h.i.+tian once expressed his desire to have the chance to re-enter Fierce Gale Cliff to Esteemed Lan Yue. However, Esteemed Lan Yue refused him on the grounds that he was not suitable, for the combination of fire and ice in Fierce Gale Cliff would further stimulate the vicious tendencies within his body.

Lin Xuanzhi inserted Lianlian into the scabbard, “It’s alright as long as one gets used to this kind of thing. Since Senior Martial Brother looked for me at this time, I’m afraid that there’s an important matter?”

Wan Yitong didn’t play dumb either. “Martial Uncle Huai Yu came to see Master just now. I think you probably miss him quite a bit, so I’m letting you know.”

Lin Xuanzhi’s expression changed slightly. “Thank you, where is Master?”

“Radiance Pavilion.” Wan Yitong waved his hand, “Go, go, I know you miss your Didi.”

Lin Xuanzhi quickened his pace and walked towards Radiance Pavilion.

Lin Xuanzhi didn’t need to think to know that this must be Esteemed Huai Yu’s tricks.

Esteemed Huai Yu didn’t intend to let them communicate under his nose. Lin Xuanzhi could also guess that if he went to Broken Sword Peak before, asking to see Yan Tianhen, there would be no doubt that the door would be shut in his face.

Then, Lin Xuanzhi might as well not expend anymore useless effort. After all, with Esteemed Lan Yue as backing, Esteemed Huai Yu would certainly not be too hard on Yan Tianhen.

Esteemed Huai Yu had always done things his own way, rebelling against the proper Dao. The things he wanted to do were beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Lin Xuanzhi also had many scruples and dared not easily disturb him.

However, no one knew exactly how miserable and tormented he felt these past few days, unable to obtain any news of Yan Tianhen.

He could only vent all his negative emotions by training on Fierce Gale Cliff and could only sleep peacefully if he was exhausted to the fullest extent every day.

He resisted going to Broken Sword Peak to ask Esteemed Huai Yu for an explanation with great difficulty, but since Esteemed Huai Yu delivered himself to Lin Xuanzhi’s doorstep, he would not let this opportunity pa.s.s easily!

Inside Radiance Pavilion.

Esteemed Huai Yu sat in a chair with no regard to his image, holding an exquisite pastry in his hand. He stuffed it into his mouth and chewed. “Ah Tong’s culinary skills are still so good. You really are blessed with fine food, raising so many disciples capable in their own fields. Why don’t you lend me Ah Tong for fun tomorrow?”

Esteemed Lan Yue looked at the cake crumbs falling to the floor and flatly said, “Clean up the floor before you leave. Don’t sit there with such a sloppy posture every day.”

Esteemed Huai Yu curled his lips and sat upright. “Senior Martial Brother, why are you so hard on me?”

“If I didn’t treat you harshly, then I don’t know what you’d be like now.”
