C20 Identity of the man in black
"How is it? Are you alright?" Bai Ye walked into the room and asked the little beggar.
"Thank you, my lord. My sister is much better now." Xiao Yu had already changed into a new set of clothes, and her expression was not that bad either. The little beggar girl was currently carefully wiping her little sister's face with a cloth.
"By the way, what's your name?" At this moment, Bai Ye suddenly remembered that he didn't know the little beggar's name. He hadn't chatted with him all this time, so he didn't notice.
"Master, my name is Xiao Wu, my sister is Xiao Yu." Xiao Wu replied respectfully.
"Where are your parents?" As soon as Bai Ye spoke, she realized that she had asked a useless question.
"Father and mother are dead." At the same time, Bai Ye noticed that Xiao Wu's expression was very calm. Most probably because his parents died when he was young, his impression of them was not very deep.
"Xiao Wu, then what are your plans for the future?" Bai Ye asked. After all, such a young child, if she hadn't met him, she might have attacked Martial Cultivator, since most of the citizens of the Windy Pool Town were commoners and they didn't have much money. Martial Cultivator and the merchants had the richest money, but all the merchants that came in and out of the town had palanquins, making their move on Martial Cultivator was extremely difficult, and doing so would only be seeking death.
"Master, I, I want to follow you, I can help you do a lot of things, as long as you can let Xiao Yu and I eat our fill, no, one meal a day, I, I want to live in a place …" 's voice became lower and lower. Presumably, he was also clear that he, a child, couldn't do many things, and he knew that this kind and upright adult man in front of him was a core member of the Bai Family, the hegemon of the Windy Swamp Town. To Xiao Wu, this identity was equivalent to an Emperor standing in front of him.
"Sure, Xiao Wu, I will let you be my martial servant. Are you willing?" Bai Ye agreed and said at the same time.
"Yes, my lord. Ah, my lord, you want me to follow you?" At first, Xiao Wu thought that Bai Ye would reject, but after he realized what was happening, he asked in both surprise and delight.
"Of course, and I will arrange for you to stay with Xiao Yu as well. You will stay with the servants for the time being, and after you have rendered meritorious service or performed well, I will allow you to move into the garden." Bai Ye nodded in acknowledgement, but Bai Ye wouldn't give him the good stuff right from the start. Xiao Wu didn't want to hurt Xiao Wu's self-esteem, because if things went like this, it would be like Bai Ye donating to Xiao Wu.
"B-but, my lord, I do not know inner Qi. How can I become a martial servant?" Xiao Wu worriedly asked what kind of servant they were, he also knew that martial servant was actually not much different from servants, it was just that martial servant's status was a little higher than servants, and they were powerful martial servant, they could even break away from slaves and become masters generals. To be able to become martial servant, Xiao Wu was naturally excited, but he did not have any Qi, he was just an ordinary person.
"I will teach you inner qi. As long as you cultivate well, I can help you break away from your servant status and become my martial general." Bai Ye gave Xiao Wu a hope. He was very clear on how precious a hope was to a impoverished youth like Xiao Wu and he would firmly grasp onto this hope.
"Is that true? My lord, can I really become a military general?" Xiao Wu did not dare believe it, a martial general, it could be said that no one in the Bai Family possessed a martial general, that was an existence that could only be achieved by being extremely powerful and by reaching an extremely high loyalty to his master.
"This is the [Vajra Body]. Go train with it. Once you've completed the first three stages, come and get it from me." Bai Ye had thought about inheriting the martial arts from his previous life, but now that Xiao Wu had appeared, Bai Ye would not doubt his loyalty. If it was the modern era, Bai Ye might still be worried, but people of the ancient times had the most reputation and righteousness, and Bai Ye had helped Xiao Wu the most. Furthermore, it was the greatest saving grace that he had given her, so Xiao Wu could only repay it with his life.
"Thank you, my lord!" Thank you, my lord! This was a cultivation method, Xiao Wu never thought that he would be able to obtain it, he didn't even dare dream about it. The Martial Cultivator that were walking all over the streets had mostly obtained some incomplete cultivation method cultivation, and after figuring it out on his own, it would be very difficult for them to break through to a higher level in their entire lives. After all, the complete and profound cultivation method were all in the clans and sects.
Bai Ye walked out of the house and the secret guard expressed that he had already announced Bai Ye's order. No one objected to Bai Ye's arrangements, so Xiao Wu and Xiao Yu smoothly entered the walls of the Bai Family. And since they were under Bai Ye's name, the servants did not dare to bully them.
I was just thinking of taking a walk when it got dark." It was time for dinner, and Bai Ye had not even taken a bath yet. Because he had returned in a hurry, her dirty white clothes had not been changed, and they were giving off a terrible stench. Bai Ye could not imagine how Xiao Wu and Xiao Yu could have lived in that kind of environment.
After an hour, Bai Ye finished bathing. He seemed to be refreshed, and just as he walked out of the shower room, he found Bai Xin and Bai Xue'er waiting for his at the door.
"You two recovered from your injuries?" Because Mu Junxiang wasn't here, White Night, who couldn't comb his long hair, simply let it flutter along with the wind.
"En, Bai Ye, I heard that you injured that man in black. How about it? How strong is that man in black?" Bai Xin first answered Bai Ye, then asked curiously. Bai Xue'er, who was at the side, also perked up her ears, after all, she had already experienced the power of that black-clothed man, and even if she had used that move, she was still injured by him.
"His strength is probably at the seventh level of the Flesh Training Realm and his true combat power is comparable to an eighth stage Martial Cultivator. However, at that time, I was only competing with him in terms of inner Qi, so I don't know how strong his martial skill was." Bai Ye immediately understood why these two guys came to find him at night, so he explained in detail.
"The seventh level of the Flesh Training Realm?" Moreover, Bai Ye, you actually managed to injure him with your inner Qi. Don't tell me that Bai Ye's strength has already reached the seventh stage? " Bai Xue'er asked, unwilling to give up. She had cultivated for so long, and had only reached the sixth stage, yet Bai Ye, this trash, had actually walked in front of her. Bai Xue'er could not accept this.
"That's right, Bai Ye, you really reached the seventh level?" Bai Xin did not dare believe it either, seems like Bai Ye's battle with them a few days ago was on par with each other, and he broke through already in just a few days, to a great extent, how was this possible!
"Mhm, and after that battle with that man in black, my strength has stabilized. I should be at the Mid Rank of the 7th Layer." Bai Ye nodded his head, but his words made Bai Xin laugh bitterly, while Bai Xue'er looked like it was impossible.
"Bai Ye, take my palm!" Bai Xue'er did not believe that Bai Ye had reached the seventh stage and planned to probe further. Furthermore, the moment she had attacked, she had used his most powerful martial skill, the Cold Ice Palm, which was more than ten times stronger than the Frozen Beauty Palm. It was secretly taught to her by Bai Xue'er's brother.
"Fire Cloud Palm!" Even Bai Xin was forced to retreat three feet. Although Bai Ye had never really trained in Fire Cloud Palm, when he casually used it, it was comparable to when a Martial Cultivator who had cultivated for several decades. When the two types of powers clashed with each other, the ice and fire between each other would be as gentle as a lover and it would be difficult to unseal the ice quietly when you were not paying attention, and Bai Ye's Fire Cloud Palm was extremely overbearing as even the air was ignited.
However, Bai Ye's flame power was extremely tyrannical, and the ice flower that had submerged the Fire Cloud Palm didn't even last a moment before melting. Bai Xue'er cried out in pain, it was her Cold Ice Flower Palm that had been broken by Bai Ye, the tyrannical power of the Fire Cloud Palm had corroded her palm, but Bai Ye quickly retracted it.
Bai Ye, looks like it's very likely that our Bai Family will produce another Skyless Sect disciple. " Bai Xin's applause broke the awkward exchange between Bai Xue'er and Bai Ye. After all, Bai Xue'er's character was not one to accept defeat, but she had lost to Bai Ye, and Bai Ye did not know how to comfort her.
For example, that black-clothed man. If his martial skill is very strong, I do not have absolute confidence in winning. " Bai Ye shook her head. Although he was crazy, he wasn't arrogant.
"That black-clothed man, Bai Ye, what do you mean?" The intelligent Bai Xin instantly guessed the hidden meaning of Bai Ye's words and asked uncertainly.
"Exactly, that fellow is probably a core disciple of another family to test the strength of our Bai family." White Night nodded.
"But, that's not right, there are smaller and weaker families nearby. It's impossible for our Bai Clan to not know the seventh layer core disciple, the only one that can contend against us, the Bei Clan is not too far away, and I know all three of their core disciples, all of them only recently broke through to the sixth layer middle stage." Bai Xin reasoned.
"That's right, but Bai Xin, you have neglected a power." Bai Ye looked at Bai Xin with praise. He actually knew so much information, but Bai Ye was not bad either, after these few days of understanding, Bai Ye had already guessed the identity of the black-clothed man.
"What kind of power?" Bai Xin asked suspiciously.
"Situ Family." Bai Ye said indifferently.
"Impossible, the Situ Family is quite a distance away from our Bai Family. Would they come here to test the strength of our Bai Family?" Bai Xue'er interrupted Bai Xin before she could say anything, as she knew very well what kind of existence an aristocratic family was.
"No, Bai Xue'er, the Situ Family has the most possibility." Bai Xin seemed to have thought of something and rejected Bai Xue'er's words.
"Bai Xin, you are silly, at this time they did not grasp the opportunity to cultivate, did they come all the way here to test us?" Bai Xue'er said in dissatisfaction.
"I ignored an intelligence report. A mysterious caravan from the Windy Moon Town under the rule of the Situ Family came to our Windy Pool Town. I don't know what kind of goods to ship or who the employer is. They just left yesterday." Bai Xin laughed bitterly.
"Are you saying that the core disciples of the Situ Family have come with this caravan?" Bai Xue'er somewhat believed Bai Xin's words, but she who was stubborn as to what to say still asked a question.
