Chapter 2: Holy Soul Water

  Looking at Xie Ao Yu's furious face, Xie Zhe and Xie Gang burst out laughing.

  The two of them can be said to be the most stupid people in the Xie family, excluding Xie Ao Yu, because they have been cultivating for nearly five or six years and so far they are only at the lower level of the primary stage, belonging to the lowest level.

  So these two people can only bully Xie Ao Yu, this freak who can't cultivate Dou Qi no matter what.

  "Want to hit me? Come on, hit me, hit here." Xie Zhe grabbed Xie Ao Yu's fist and placed it in front of his nose, shouting loudly.

  Xie Ao Yu's fists were clenched tightly.

  He felt all his strength flowing into his fists.

  "Beat me! Beat me!" Zhe Shuo yelled.

  What can be tolerated and what cannot be tolerated!

  Xie Ao Yu finally couldn't bear it anymore.

  "Xie Zhe, Xie Gang, what are you two doing!" Just then, a clear and crisp voice rang out, and a slender figure appeared in front of the three.

  Jet-black hair cascades down, a rosy round face like a melon seed, beautiful eyes and nose, really pretty.

  When they saw the girl, the arrogant Xie Zhe and Xie Gang immediately lowered their heads. They couldn't afford to offend this girl, who was a Primary Upper Position, two realms higher than them.

  "You'll only rely on a woman's pretty face, wait for an opportunity and see how Master Zhe teaches you a lesson." Xie Zhe cursed in a low voice, turning his head to smile at the girl, "Ice Dance, I'm just messing with Ao Yu, haha, I have something to do, I'll leave first."

  "Hey, did I tell you to leave?" Bingwu shouted with her hands on her hips, like a little chili pepper.

  Xie Ao Yu is a typical male chauvinist, he doesn't want Ice Dance to stand up for him. He believes that as long as he continues to cultivate his skills, pure physical strength can defeat Xie Zhe and Xie Gang, those two inferior scum. So he waves his hand and says, "Forget it, Ice Dance, you know what kind of people they are." He looks at Ice Dance and smiles, "How did you come here?"

  When she saw Xie Ao Yu, the icy mask on her face suddenly melted like ice thawing. She smiled and said, "Can't I come to see you?" After that, she excitedly said, "I'm here to tell you some good news."

  "What news makes you so happy?" Xie Ao Yu asked.

  "There is a master who passed by this place and accepted me as his apprentice." Bingwu said excitedly.

  Xie Ao Yu said: "Which great person?"

  "You... Orchid... Ruo!"

  "Butterfly, Orchid, Bamboo!" Xiao Ao Yu exclaimed in surprise.

  Ice Dance nodded vigorously.

  Although it feels unbelievable, judging from the look of Bingwu's dance, there shouldn't be any deception. Xie Aoyu's heart is both bitter and joyful, bitter because he thought of himself, but more so happy for Bingwu.

  Who would have known, in the Qiao continent there was a strange woman, called Butterfly Queen, named You Lanruo, with a magical pet, Feng Huo Liu Xing Qi Cai Die, which is a heavenly king-level demon beast. This girl appeared more than ten years ago, and her first appearance was to participate in the Continental Youth Competition, where she swept away all her opponents with one sword.

  Afterwards, You Lanruo continued to challenge the strongest warriors from all directions. Almost every place in the Qiao Continent had her footprints. She fought against all the strong warriors under the age of 30 and reached the Saint level at the age of 30, second only to the Heavenly King level.

  "How did she end up in our small place?" Xie Ao Yu said.

  "I heard Master say that she's going out this time to find something, preparing to help her demonic pet evolve," Bingwu said excitedly. "Master saw me and said I'm wasting my time staying here, if she taught me, I might have reached the Spiritual level by now, instead of just being at the Primary Upper Level."

  Xie Ao Yu smiled and said: "It seems that Bing Wu will soon become the second Butterfly Queen."

  Excited Ice Dance's face showed a look of loss and said, "I asked Master about your situation, Master said that Uncle had entrusted someone to find her, but she couldn't do anything."

  "I knew that." Xie Ao Yu smiled and said, up to now she was certain that it was really Butterfly Fairy You Lan Ruo, because the matter of Xie Qian asking someone to find You Lan Ruo for Xie Ao Yu's sake was very secretive.

  The two of them chatted as they walked back to Xie's home.

  Enter the exclusive courtyard of the six elders.

  Xie Ao Yu's father, Xie Qian, was the sixth elder of the Xie family. In the early years, there were three families in Langya City, and the Xie family was one of them. It was Xie Qian who emerged from nowhere and led the Xie family to wipe out the other two families, making the Xie family the only one in Langya City. However, because he was obsessed with cultivating the Tao, he did not take over as the head of the family, but instead let his older half-brother, the current head of the family, Xie Lian, take the position.

  As I stepped inside, a faint scent of medicine wafted over.

  Lotte's Xie Ao Yu's mood also became heavy, seeing his father Xie Qian lying in bed, his heart was a mixture of emotions.

  Thinking of his mother's early death, his father Xie Qian raised him up, and for his strange physique, he ran around for many years. Who would have thought that three years ago, he suddenly fainted and never woke up again.

  For three years, Xie Qian's body was no different from that of an ordinary person, but he just couldn't wake up from his daze.

  "Father." Xie Ao Yu looked at Xie Qian, who was like asleep, and his heart felt indescribable. He hated himself, if he could cultivate Dou Qi, he would be able to cultivate extremely high strength, travel the continent, and search for a cure.

  Every time he thinks of these things, Xie Ao Yu's heart is in a tumult.

  He secretly vowed that even if he couldn't cultivate Qi, he would still undergo arduous training to make his body strong enough to fight against those powerful Qi cultivators.

  "Hmm...Hmm...Hmm..."

  Hasty footsteps came from outside.

  Xie Ao Yu and Bing Wu looked up to see the clan leader, Xie Lian, rushing in from outside with a somewhat excited expression, his manner completely unbecoming of a clan leader.

  "Ao Yu, you're back, great." Xie Lian said.

  "Great Uncle, what's wrong?" Xie Ao Yu looked at Xie Lian in surprise, he had never seen him like this before. After all, he was the clan leader and had to maintain a dignified image outside.

  Xie Lian's voice trembled as he said: "Do you still remember the method that Zi Yuan Dashi mentioned to save your father?"

  Xie Ao Yu nodded and said: "Remember, Master Zi Yan once said that to save Father, there is only the legendary Holy Soul Water, no other way."

  "That's right, just now I received a message that the champion prize of the Continental Youth Competition, which is held once every ten years, has been announced. One of them is the Holy Soul Water!" Xie Lian said.

  "What?!"

  Xie Ao Yu suddenly jumped up.

  He could hardly believe his ears, the champion of the mainland youth tournament was actually the Holy Soul Water, one of the most mysterious things under the starry sky.

  "It's absolutely not wrong, according to the mainland youth tournament rules, in order to let all young masters participate, the championship prize is usually announced two years in advance. This is what I got from the City Master's Mansion, haha, this time Second Brother was able to wake up." Xie Lian said excitedly.

  Before he could even feel happy, Xie Ao Yu's heart suddenly turned cold.

  Because he couldn't cultivate Qi.

  "Ao Yu, don't forget that our ice dance was taught by the Butterfly Queen herself, who was the champion back then. Now she's widely recognized as the most promising candidate to challenge for the continental first place." Xie Lian smiled and said.

  Ice dance dynamic little fist, "I will work hard!"

  Looking at Bingwu's determined expression, Xie Ao Yu's heart was moved. If even Bingwu can do it, why can't I? I'm a man!

  Men can't say no!

  "Ao Yu, if I were to obtain the Holy Soul Water, how do you plan on thanking me?" Bing Wu saw Ao Yu's hesitation and thought he was again saddened by his inability to cultivate Dou Qi, so she changed the subject.

  Xie Ao Yu who had already thought it through regained his optimism and said: "Then I'll marry you."

  "Haha, okay, I'll be your witness." Xie Lian laughed loudly and said.

  Ice Dance's face turned red with embarrassment, and she stomped her foot in annoyance. "I'm not going to bother with you guys anymore," she said, turning around and running out the door. She reached the entrance and then turned back to say, "I'm going to go find Master to cultivate."

  Xie Lian burst out laughing and said: "This is indeed a wonderful piece of news, I'm going to go have a drink, Ao Yu, come with me."

  "No, I want to stay and talk with Father for a while." Xie Ao Yu said.

  Xie Lian said: "Alright." He then left.

  Xie Ao Yu knelt in front of the bed, looking at his father's peaceful face. He vowed: "Father, I swear to get the Holy Soul Water!" After finishing speaking, he got up and left for the back mountain.

  No matter what Xie Qian's previous contributions to the Xie family were, or his relationship with the clan leader, Xie Qian had always been carefully attended to by someone. Xie Ao Yu was not worried about how the servants would treat Xie Qian when he was away.

  The mountain behind is where Xie Qian practiced before.

  The other young masters of the Xie family were practicing in the Xie family's martial arts arena or training room, but only Xie Qian was too strong, surpassing the strongest member of the Xie family, Xie Lian, by a full five realms. Therefore, once he practiced a certain fighting technique, it would easily affect others.

  Since Xie Qian fell into a coma, Hou Shan has also become deserted.

  Xie Ao Yu arrived at the back mountain, he could no longer hold back his suppressed emotions, and roared: "I, Xie Ao Yu, will absolutely not admit defeat, I must become a master, definitely!" His turbulent emotions caused him to punch a tree trunk that was over one meter in diameter.

  "Crack!"

  A cracking sound came over.

  Xie Ao Yu raised his head and took a look, he was stunned.

  A tree as thick as a meter was actually broken by his one punch.
