"This is the real Martial Arts Dao," Ye Liuyun said as he reassured her with a shoulder pat. "Killing is an inevitable part of martial arts training. If you don't kill them, you will be killed. For now, you're just not accustod to it yet. Probably because you have been living too comfortably before."
Instead of finding solace in Ye Liuyun's words, her tears welled up, and she threw herself into Ye Liuyun's embrace, sobbing uncontrollably.
Ye Liuyun didn't have the heart to push her away and let her vent for a while.
He also thought it was quite an accomplishnt for He Lianxiu to transform herself into a strong, independent woman after years of being a spoiled princess.
Though she was arrogant in the past, her fundantal character was good with a high potential.
He Lianxiu cried for a while, venting all the bitterness and grievances she suffered these days, and gradually quietened down.
Lying in Ye Liuyun's arms, she felt a profound sense of security and was reluctant to leave.
Seeing that she had quieted down, Ye Liuyun joked, "Are you planning to just sleep like this tonight? Or are you brewing up so more emotions, preparing to cry again?"
"Pfft!"
His joke made He Lianxiu giggle and she blushed as she tucked herself deeper into his arms without having the courage to look him in the eye.
At that mont, she realised she had soaked Ye Liuyun's garnts with her tears.
"Ah!"
She exclaid in surprise and pulled away.
Ye Liuyun didn't mind, he exerted so of his powers to instantly dry his clothes.
"Now go practise! I don't want you to be the one killed off in the future!" Ye Liuyun urged her.
"Mmhm!" He Lianxiu blushed as Ye Liuyun led her back into the Xuankong Stone.
Every night, He Lianxiu would go to Ye Liuyun to cultivate. She would always start her visitations by chatting with Ye Liuyun, sharing her thoughts on training during the day and occasionally acting flirtatiously towards him.
She enjoyed the days she could et and chat with Ye Liuyun every day.
In that period, He Lianxiu's strength was also rapidly improving.
Her second Divine soul had already condensed into a human form. Moreover, during combat, she has begun challenging those with weaker Divine Souls to practice the art of devouring their Divine Souls.
At first, Ye Liuyun used his Divine Soul to assist her, then let her practice by herself.
Inside the Xuankong Stone, she also filled up her second Virtuoso. From now on, when she is in combat, she will have more genuine energy than the others, making her more enduring in battle.
Moreover, after days of practising, her genuine energy has beco more solid. Ye Liuyun estimated that after a period of combat, she could elevate her realm to another level.
He Lianxiu listened to Ye Liuyun's advice obediently. She was not in a hurry to elevate her realm, even though many others around her had already elevated theirs.
However, she found that after her genuine energy had solidified, her real strength was not much inferior to those people who advanced earlier than her.
And once she breaks through, she will probably advance a big leap ahead of them.
In the following ti, she began to practice her sword intention and practised her Xenocide-hidden Skill.
Ye Liuyun also taught her how to take care of her blade, instructing her to inject her Divine Sense into it to comprehend her sword's intention.
He Lianxiu playfully nad the fifth-rank divine knife 'Xiuyun', by combining their nas, implying that they would never part.
Not only was He Lianxiu talented, but she was also extrely diligent when practising her sword skills.
Upon seeing how intensely Ye Tiandao practised his swordsmanship every day, she too set a daily quota of sword-wielding exercises for herself, vowing not to rest until she reached her target.
Half a month later, He Lianxiu had formally beco a mber of the Dark Legion, even promoted as the captain of a hundred-man squad.
She eventually developed her Sword intention core through continuous training and began to tackle the advanced stages of the second level.
Her remaining training did not require much of Ye Liuyun's attention.
She even took the initiative to ask Ye Liuyun if there was anything new she could learn. Ye Liuyun suggested that she study Spatial Force.
He Lianxiu greatly admired Ye Liuyun's Spatial World and began to practice it.
However, mastering the Spatial Force was not as easy as other abilities, but with Ye Liuyun guiding her, she progressed quickly.
Ye Liuyun's mastery over spatial force had advanced to the point of being able to breach the barriers of the third layer of the void. After guiding He Lianxiu and experiencing a few tis, he allowed her to explore on her own.
Ye Liuyun couldn't always go with her because he had a lot of other things to take care of.
They had recently engaged in multiple big battles, all of which had ended well.
Tong Xin had crafted a colossal rhinoceros. It was primarily used for ramming city gates and its strength was practically invincible.
When unleashed, its size would tower as tall as the city walls, leaving the enemies' hearts thumping with fear. It can charge even the strongest of city gates.
In addition, Tong Xin had completed the soldiers' third-level armour and weaponry. The soldiers all instantly changed into their new gear.
Previously, so of Ye Liuyun's soldiers had to fight without third-rank weapons and armour because of insufficient equipnt.
Currently, Ye LIuyun's Dark Legion has expanded into a large troop of sixteen thousand soldiers with the rest of them being eliminated or perished in battle.
Ye Liuyun's soldiers arrived at the designated location at their planned ti to conduct a trade with Mystique Mart.
In addition to military supplies, Ye Liuyun exchanged his excess elixirs for dicinal herbs.
Then, Ye Liuyun and his clone started to take turns refining pills, while Tong Xin devoted half of each day to refining third-level armour for sale.
Having honed their skills enough, the army ceased their battles and boarded the vessels, heading for the border battleground in the southwest.
During this ti, He Lianxiu had been cultivating within Ye Liuyun's Xuankong stone. In there, she achieved the advanced stage of the second realm, absorbing Devil Crystal to cultivate the power of the Buddhist-Devil, and grasping the concept of State Crystal to practise sword intention and Spatial Force.
Ye Liuyun, along with others such as Lei Ming, raised the Spatial realm to the advanced fourth level, ready for the upcoming wars.
A month later, they arrived at Mystique Mart to trade for Elixirs and equipnt for a fair amount of dicinal herbs and Weapon-refining supplies.
In particular, Ye Liuyun bought so highly toxic dicine for He Lianxiu to enhance her poison source.
Another month later, Ye Liuyun disembarked from the vessel with his army.
After two months of training, the soldiers were ready to stretch their skills on the battlefield.
Ye Liuyun commanded his troops to split up into groups of one hundred and set off for a mountain inhabitant by feral beasts to hunt and capture them.
He too, along with Lei Ming and the rest, delved deeper into the mountains to hunt for suitable feral beasts for practice.
His clones cloaked in Concealcape were tasked to protect He Lianxiu with the help of a tal Puppet and a Demonic Wolf.
As this was the first ti He Lianxiu officially led her team on a mission, Ye Liuyun was rather concerned.
It was fortunate for her that Ye Liuyun's clone had accompanied her, or else she might not have made it back.
At first, He Lianxiu's squad had a lot of success, killing many feral beasts of the second and third levels.
He Lianxiu pondered if she should explore deeper into the mountain to capture third-level beasts. While she was at it, she and her troops were suddenly surrounded by a troop of foreign soldiers.
Those soldiers were also in a formation of one hundred, like how their troops were. However, the foreign soldiers were dressed in the Liang army's uniform and adorned in gilded armour.
