"The weather is really bad today, that's why I… couldn't control the sword properly."
He laughed awkwardly, trying to find an excuse for himself so it wouldn't look too embarrassing.
"Mm, Little Elder Bai, please stand steady."
Ye Shiyuan reminded him softly, then began chanting an incantation.
The speed unexpectedly became much faster than before.
Could it be that when he had come together with him earlier and moving at such a leisurely pace, Ye Shiyuan had actually been waiting for him the whole time?
Thinking about it, it was truly mortifying.
...
[ Task Two: Take Xu feng as a disciple. ]
At the current stage, Task One was completed by one percent!
If Task Two could not be completed, it would seriously affect the progress of Task One.
Bai He closed his eyes, and a string of text appeared before him.
He had gone through so much trouble, yet had only completed one percent.
Speaking of Xu feng… among the cultivators coming this time intending to join Lingguang Sect, there was Xu feng.
Unfortunately, during the initiation process, because he did not pay a so called protection fee, he was eliminated from the quota by some ridiculous disciples, who instead gave the spot to a foolish person who paid generously.
Later, Xu feng left Lingguang Sect in despair, became a disciple under someone else, and eventually becoming Ye Shiyuan's sworn brothers.
In any case, he was also among those who survived until the very end.
Xu feng was different from Ye Shiyuan.
He was a very lively person and constantly chattering away.
In the future, Baize Peak was probably going to become quite lively.
…
The next day, early morning.
He got up very early.
The sunrise at Baize Peak was truly breathtaking.
Looking into the distance, he discovered that Ye Shiyuan had actually woken up even earlier than him and was practicing swordsmanship.
Bathed in the light of the rising sun, the figure wielding the sword was upright and dazzling.
Compared to those sword dancing scenes in television dramas, this was far more beautiful to behold.
He foolishly stared for a while without realizing it.
Anyway, no one knew.
Hehe!
Ye Shiyuan suddenly stopped.
He then leapt forward and landed in front of Bai He.
Early in the morning, he performed a deep bow to him. "Greetings, Little Elder Bai."
"Get up quickly. There's no need to be so restrained at Baize Peak."
"As it should be."
"You should focus on recovering from your injuries. Only practice again after you are fully healed. The Heavenly Soul Tempering Pill must absolutely be taken only after your injuries have completely recovered."
One truly had to admire Ye Shiyuan.
Even with the Heavenly Soul Tempering Pill in his possession, he was still able to restrain himself from consuming it.
His cultivation had stagnated for five years; he should have wanted more than anyone else to improve his strength.
"Thank you for the reminder, Little Elder Bai. I will remember it."
"Do you have time today to accompany me somewhere?"
