I Just Want to Live Well, but I Surpassed the Protagonist – 12 Warriors Don’t Need Excess Baggage!
The main plant in the Bamboo and Lotus Forest is bamboo, and there is a pond with floating lotuses. In the center of the pond is a wide open space where the disciples of Echo Peak can compose music and paint while enjoying the bamboo garden and lotus pond.
However, at this time, there were only two figures in the open space.
The tall and curvy one was Yi Bai, and the thin and flat one was Wu Xue. It was still very easy to recognize them.
There was an easel in front of Yi Bai. Wu Xue stood a little further away. Unlike usual, she had tied up her long hair and held the fifth-grade yellow sword given to her by Ye Yong. Her skirt was covered with dust, and there was some on her fair face as well.
Ye Yong did not approach her to disturb her but watched her from afar.
After a short while, Yi Bai picked up a brush and started to operate vigorously on the drawing paper. As the ink gathered into several shadows of beasts, the shadows quickly jumped out of the drawing paper. Although they had no details and were just ink shadows, their shapes were different. They felt no different from real beasts, and there was a faint aura of spiritual power. They probably had the level of the first or second level of the Foundation Establishment stage.
Wu Xue’s expression was serious as she watched the ink shadows. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and then opened her eyes and nodded.
“Go.” Yi Bai waved her hand, and the ink shadows rushed towards Wu Xue.
Three were running on the ground, and one was flying in the sky.
The leading ink shadow had a body like a buffalo and was extremely strong. It lowered its head and charged fiercely.
Wu Xue dodged it lightly. The sword’s edge did not land on the buffalo but immediately turned and swung at the ink shadow that looked like a monkey and was sneak attacking her.
The monkey was very agile. Even when it jumped into the air, it could change its posture to avoid the sharp sword’s edge. However, Wu Xue’s speed was too fast, and she still cut off one of its arms.
The drawing shadow did not make any sound or feel pain. After it landed, it suddenly flicked its tail at Wu Xue. Wu Xue was prepared and dodged it by stepping back.
At this time, the bird ink shadow in the sky seized the opportunity and swooped down. Wu Xue used the Cloud Avoidance Sword Technique to force the bird back. The last ink shadow could fire shadow bullets. Wu Xue dodged them if she could and tried not to attack the bullets with her sword. Because when she swung her sword, her vision would be blocked, and her movements would be stiff. It was easy for her to be sneak attacked by the bird and the monkey.
Her response at the beginning was very smooth. It could be seen that Wu Xue had faced such attacks many times before, but she was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining and could only use a little bit of True Qi. She soon started to feel weak and was knocked to the ground by the ink shadows.
The bull’s attack was very terrifying. One charge could send people flying far away, but Wu Xue did not give up. She was still thinking of a way to fight back.
“Retreat.” Yi Bai waved her hand, and the ink shadows disappeared. She looked at Wu Xue, who had gotten up from the ground, her hair loose, and was wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth. She felt a little Feeling bad but could only give her an evaluation, “Little Xue, you are really very talented. Whether it’s your speed, reaction, or the way you attack them, I can see your improvement every time. It’s a pity that your cultivation level is too low, and you haven’t learned any body techniques, so you can’t fight for a long time, which makes you fall behind and suffer. However, this time, you were able to cut off the ink shadow’s hand. I believe that next time, you will be able to kill it successfully, reduce the pressure on the group, and create a chance of victory for yourself.”
“Yes.” Wu Xue listened to the evaluation, took the healing medicine, and recalled the details of the battle, reflecting on herself.
From being knocked away by the buffalo in a one-on-one battle yesterday to being able to deal with four enemies today, Wu Xue’s progress was truly visible to the naked eye. Yi Bai could not help but think that this was a girl who had never used a sword before. It was a pity that she could not absorb spiritual power. Otherwise, if she learned some spiritual sword techniques, she would definitely be a powerful sword cultivator in the future. Not to mention anything else, just based on her unyielding spirit and her ability to become more courageous as she fought, she already had the potential to become a sword cultivator.
Yesterday and today, they had fought more than ten times. If Yi Bai had not taken back the ink shadows first, Wu Xue would probably have fought until she fainted and would not have said stop even once.
The highest realm of sword cultivators was “Dying for the Sword” and “Going Forward Without Hesitation.” They were quite desperate cultivators. Sword cultivators were slightly better. Their highest realm was “Sword Follows My Heart” and “Man and Sword Unite.” ” They were crazy about the sword.
Wu Xue’s performance in the past two days had broken Yi Bai’s understanding of her, both in terms of her spirit and her combat talent.
Because her injuries were not serious, and the healing medicine was relatively high-grade, as a Qi Refining eighth-level cultivator with a physique that surpassed ordinary people, Wu Xue recovered very quickly. She tied up her loose hair again and waited for a moment to rest. Once her True Qi recovered, she would continue training.
Ye Yong watched from the sky, inexplicably touched. No matter how much the details of reality changed, she was still Wu Xue, the Valkyrie who became more courageous as she fought.
Ye Yong suddenly realized that he had neglected Wu Xue’s cultivation. Because he had almost killed her when he was forging her body, Ye Yong only wanted her to be happy as his maid. Although he had given her pills to help her cultivate, he only wanted her cultivation level to increase so that she could scare the enemy. He had never thought of letting her suffer or gain practical combat experience.
What was a Valkyrie?
How could one become a god without fighting?
From Noble mtl dot com
In the novel, every step of Wu Xue’s path to becoming a god was fought for by herself. It was not something that could be solved by just piling up cultivation.
Martial cultivators were different from immortal cultivators. Martial cultivators focused on the physical body, while immortal cultivators focused on the soul.
Even if an immortal cultivator did not have much practical combat experience, their cultivation level was there. With their spiritual power and magic, they could instantly kill enemies with lower cultivation levels. What about a martial cultivator? Practical combat experience was everything because martial cultivators fought close-range and were different from immortal cultivators who could use long-range magic.
Even if Ye Yong had not arranged it, Wu Xue had realized that it was not enough to just cultivate, so she took the initiative to risk injury and pain to increase her practical combat experience so that her body’s various reactions could keep up with her cultivation …
Perhaps she wanted to protect me more than I wanted to protect her.
Ye Yong sighed and landed on the ground.
Wu Xue immediately discovered him and happily ran towards her young master. When she came to Ye Yong, she realized that her clothes were now very dirty, and there was dust on her face. She hurriedly took two steps back and wiped it with the back of her hand. As a result, the more she wiped, the more she looked like a little cat.
Ye Yong took out a handkerchief from his storage ring, dipped it in the clear water of the pond, and wiped the dirt off her face. His eyes were very gentle. “Why didn’t you tell me that you ran out to train by yourself?”
“I didn’t think that Young Master was in seclusion and might need a few more days, so I planned to train secretly and give Young Master a surprise when you came out of seclusion.” Wu Xue’s face was red. Yi Bai was watching from not far away. Young Master actually did such an intimate action to her.
Yi Bai had known that Ye Yong had come a long time ago. After all, the cultivation of the ninth level of the Golden Core was not for show. She also knew a little about Ye Yong’s love for Wu Xue. After all, if he did not love her, why would he bring her to the immortal cultivator’s banquet? That was definitely not the treatment of an ordinary maid.
What Ye Yong was doing to Wu Xue now, Yi Bai not only did not feel that it was inappropriate but also thought that this was the gentle and considerate Junior Brother Ye in her impression.
But that doesn’t stop her from envying Wu Xue. Her eyes darting around, Yi Bai walks towards Ye Yong, suddenly tripping over her own feet and falling to the ground, getting her clothes dirty, and deliberately rubbing dirt on her face.
“Ooh~ Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, this servant accidentally fell~” It must be said that beautiful women are all natural-born actresses. Yi Bai comes to Ye Yong, looking pitiful, with a clear intention. I want to be wiped too.
Ye Yong’s gaze couldn’t help but linger on the magnificent sight before her for a moment. After all, Yi Bai has a very large conscience. When she fell, her clothes were covered in dust all over her body. The place that needed the most cleaning was probably this.
“Coming, coming.” Ye Yong takes out his handkerchief, dips it in water, and wipes the dust off Yi Bai’s face, his gaze uncontrollably glancing downwards from time to time.
Ye Yong thinks he’s hiding it well, but for a sensitive woman, especially Wu Xue, who has always been brooding about her own small conscience, every glance from her young master is seen.
“mmm…” She pouts unhappily, a voice repeating in her heart over and over again.
I’m a warrior! Warriors don’t need burdens!
