C997 Setting up a Foundation

The fire of Xiao Family had been burning for seven days and seven nights. The huge courtyard and the house had been burnt clean. Except for the disciples who had escaped before the fire, no one else had come out.

All the higher ups of Xiao Family, from the patriarch to the six Grand Elder, had died. Not a single one of them was left alive.

As the doors of Xiao Family had been tightly shut, no one knew what had happened inside.

However, many of them saw the trash of Xiao Family, Ye Huo. When he walked into the Xiao Family, a big fire broke out in the Xiao Family.

No one believed that a piece of trash could destroy the entire Xiao Family, and no one would dig into the root of the matter to avenge the Xiao Family.

If the Xiao Family was destroyed, then so be it. No one really cared about it, and no one really cared about it.

The people of the other families in Half Heaven City immediately reacted and swallowed all the shops and properties of the Xiao Family.

Ye Xu and Ye Huo, who were responsible for this, had also returned to the Rising Sun Sect.

They had spent a little Spirit Stone to get the title of a First Grade Sect, which gave them an identity.

Ye Xu drank his tea and looked at the wooden plate in his hand with a mocking expression on his face.

If the Return Void Sect knew that they had killed over a thousand of their experts and established a First Grade Sect in the Southern Land, they would be so angry that they would cough up blood. They would immediately send their men to kill ___.

However, the Rising Sun City was now in the sky of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, and Ye Xu had turned into a natural being. Even if the Return Void Sect dug three feet into the ground of the Southern Land, they wouldn't be able to find him.

Ye Huo, who had returned with serious injuries, was naturally punished. He had been soaked in ice for eight hours.

Although soaking in the ice bucket was very uncomfortable and almost drove people crazy, the effect was immediate. The internal and external injuries on Ye Huo's body began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Alright, it's time! Come out and exercise!"

Ye Xu looked up at the sky and said lightly.

"Yes... Master... Master... Hehehehe..."

Even though he had soaked in the ice bucket many times, Ye Huo's body was still trembling and he could not even speak.

He was puzzled in his heart. He had also soaked in the ice bucket so many times. Why was it that every time he soaked in the ice bucket, he was stuck at the critical point where he was about to collapse?

Whether it was six hours or eight hours, it was always the time when he was about to break down.

How could he know that the medicinal herbs Ye Xu put in the bucket were tailor-made for him?

The time and concentration of the medicinal herbs were incomparably precise.

Therefore, no matter how long Ye Huo soaked for, he always felt like he was about to collapse.

After lying on the ground twitching for a long time, Ye Huo's body barely felt a trace of warmth.

"Huhu..."

"This is really fatal... If I soak in this ice bucket, I will really die, Master!"

Ye Huo said with a bitter face.

Ye Xu smiled and said, "You don't want to soak anymore? It's very simple, as long as you don't deduct points!"

Once the issue of deducting points was mentioned, Ye Huo's face instantly collapsed.

"Ah, Master, how can you not deduct points every time you give me a task?"

Ye Xu smiled and said, "Nothing is difficult in this world. I'm afraid there are some people who are interested. Deducting points means that you did not do well enough! The more points you deduct, the less points you deduct. It is the areas that you have overlooked. When did you really not deduct points!? En, I can barely be considered a Small Completion!"

Ye Huo cried out in a miserable voice," What? Only a Small Completion!? Master, my current strength is no longer as weak as the Profound Level Martial Artist. Why don't you let me cultivate my martial skill!? I see that the other sects have already begun cultivating their heart sutras and martial skills! "

Ye Xu said lightly," Heart techniques and martial skills! Hehe... That kind of thing is not difficult for you at all! You are too old and have been crippled for so many years. If you don't stabilize your foundation, your future achievements will probably be at the Heavenly Stage! Don't tell me that you only want to become a trash at the Heavenly Stage in your entire life? "

" A... trash of the Heavenly Stage! "

Ye Huo said in a somewhat speechless manner.

The Heavenly Stage Martial Artist flew in the air, splitting mountains and splitting rocks. Its power was limitless. Ye Huo had once dreamt of reaching this realm, but in Ye Xu's mouth, it was a trashy existence.

Ye Huo mustered his courage and said, "Master, can I ask what realm you are at now?"

It wasn't that he hadn't observed Ye Xu before, but no matter how he looked at it, he was just an ordinary person.

Yes, he did not have any Qi, nor did he fly in the sky. Wherever he went, he would rely on his own feet.

Ye Huo had once seriously doubted Ye Xu's strength.

It wasn't until he saw Ye Xu kill the six Grand Elder of Xiao Family with a single sword strike that he realized that his master's strength could only be described with four words.

It was unfathomable.

Ye Xu looked at Ye Huo's expectant eyes and smiled.

"Do you want to know my realm? When... when will you not deduct points!? I will tell you!"

" Ah... "

Ye Huo instantly let out a miserable cry.

"Alright, you have been soaking in the ice bucket for eight hours now. Go and exercise your hands and feet! Go down the mountain and bring back some wild animals! Remember, unless it is a life and death situation, you must absolutely not undo the seal! Otherwise, you will directly deduct ten points!"

Ye Xu said with a smile.

Ye Huo's body trembled. He looked at the ice bucket with lingering fear and silently swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"There is still two hours until the sky turns dark! One point deducted from an hour! Go... "

Ye Xu waved his sleeve and Ye Huo flew into the mountain path.

He didn't dare to delay and immediately turned around and ran down the mountain.

The Rising Sun Sect was located on the highest peak of the four mountain peaks. Not even demon beasts could get up there, let alone humans.

Therefore, Ye Huo had to go to the dense forest at the foot of the mountain. That was the place where demon beasts grew.

After rushing to the foot of the mountain, he immediately started searching.

Now that he had just formed his strength, he had an impulse to explode.

"Beasts, come out! Let me practice!"

Ye Huo had benefited a lot from his battle with the ten geniuses of Xiao Family, especially Xiao Kuang.

Ye Huo's talent was indeed not weak, but just like what Ye Xu had said, his foundation was too weak.

The disciples of big families had already come into contact with the Martial Dao when they were seven or eight years old. They began to temper their bodies and cultivate the spiritual energy.

Ye Huo had been crippled for twenty years. His body and meridians had all become rigid. It was completely unsuitable for him to practice martial arts. If he had not met Ye Xu, even if he trained until his death, he would at most only have one Yellow Level Martial Artist.1

Ye Huo's meridians had already been reconstructed by Ye Xu, and his body had also been slowly strengthened by the ice bucket.

As long as his foundation was polished, heart sutras and martial skills were nothing to Ye Xu.

Ye Huo's luck was pretty good. Very quickly, he found an incomparably powerful black bear that possessed the strength of a peak Yellow Level.

He licked his lips and smiled. "It's you!"

The big black bear was just about to take a nap after eating its fill when a stone suddenly flew over and smashed onto its head.

The black bear was awakened and immediately roared and stood up.

"Awoo..."
