Chen Wentian found time the next day for a one-to-one training session with Bei Yingluo. She was too weak to train with the other disciples so he had to raise her up step by step. With more disciples, his time commitment increased and he could only let them train on their own.

“Good morning, master.” She greeted him in the main courtyard.

She was wearing a light set of white clothes suited for practicing martial arts. It hung loosely off her frame and her paltry womanly curves were well hidden. She almost looked like a man except for the long blonde hair and feminine facial features.

She had a bright and eager smile. She had half-expected to be taught by her senior sisters and was very happy to be receiving the full and undivided attention of her new master. He was an immortal after all, someone that was the lord of millions of mortals. It was an incredible honor in her mind.

“Mmm… Yingluo, you are twenty-two this year?”

“Yes, master!”

“With my spiritual sense, I can tell that your body is quite strong for the 8th Level of the Body Refinement Realm… I know you’ve told Elder Mo a little about your background but tell me again in full detail. I’ll see if I can find any clues about your secret ability.”

Bei Yingluo nodded obediently and started to explain.

She came from the Bei Clan, a minor cultivation family in the south. They lived in Drifting Sand City, a human stronghold on the northern edge of the Great Hui Desert in the Great Desert Province. This province was the southernmost of the nine provinces that fell under the monster invasion.

The Great Desert Province was an interesting case as it was a strong province in terms of the number of cultivators and mortal cultivation sects. The Great Hui Desert was a dangerous place but it was not empty. It was rich in rare cultivation treasures and rare resources. The city also was along the trade route to the Sapphire Mystic Empire that lay further to the south. The city was the last stop of cultivators and adventurers before going into the desert or heading to the empire.

The Bei Clan participated in the battles against the monsters like other residents of Drifting Sand City. They defended their home bravely but were surrounded and defeated during one of the never-ending battles. Their men were killed or sent to the mantis queen while the women were sent to the monkey mountain. Only a few survived.

Their fate was not unique. The same thing befell thousands of human factions during this monster invasion. Millions of people died and entire regions were wiped clean of human life.

Bei Yingluo was truly thankful to be alive and her family was equally thankful. She mentioned this many times which made Chen Wentian a bit embarassed.

“Yingluo, being able to meet you is also my fortune as well. Your ability to cross realms is nothing short of astonishing so you are amazing, too.”

“Thank you, master.”

“Now, from your history, I cannot tell anything strange. Perhaps there is some secret about Drifting Sand City that I don’t know about though I don’t want to go there until the monster invasion is over.” He said.

The monster invasion was still going on. Although the three beast kings had retreated, there were many leftover groups of beasts and demons that had taken root in the human provinces. Those needed time to be cleared out but it was not a job for immortal sects. They would be good opportunities for mortal sects in the region to test their mettle and train their disciples.

“Having said that, show me your clan’s martial art.”

Bei Yingluo nodded, “Master, ours is called Bei Family Spear. It focuses on attacking from range and flexibility. We simply focus on physical combat.”

“Okay, here.” He withdrew a spear from his spatial bag.

The Spirit Initiate Realm weapon dropped in her hand and it left her speechless. It was a peak mortal realm weapon, something not even her clan head had.

“Do you like it? It’s yours. Now, show me.”

Bei Yingluo twirled the spear around went into a leaning, wide-footed stance. She then stabbed forward in quick succession, each one firm and steady. She continued with arcing slashes, defensive sweeps, and many acrobatic movements.

This spear style was made to be practical. It focused on power and finesse. It was not intended for people to use it to reach the immortal realm but rather to simply fight enemies. There was nothing more, nothing less.

He observed while she leaped around the courtyard with the spear. Her body was trained from years of this and thus fit and limber. She was not a muscular and tall warrior like Xu Lanyi. Her body was not soft and supple like Long Yifei. She was a dancer, thin and without much curves. Her body was functional and it held a unique attractiveness and feminine charm.

He gradually understood her appeal and his little perverted monster within began to awake…

“Good, good. Take a rest.” He finally said.

Bei Yingluo stopped and wiped her brow. She had gone on for a good while and she had started to perspire. Her thin practice clothes were now stuck to her skin and outlined her nubile frame.

“Your Bei Family Spear is a good martial art with solid fundamentals. There’s nothing wrong with it in terms of combat ability. You can keep practicing it. How is your cultivation compared to others in your family?”

“It is around the same, maybe slightly faster.”

“And you have no idea how you were able to summon that power?”

“I don’t remember anything. The monkeys had chosen my mother. They surrounded her and were about to… and I don’t remember after that. I’m sorry, master.”

“Mmm, don’t worry. Step by step. I will give you a few things to rebuild your foundation. First, the Twelve Meridians Body Tempering. Practice this twice every day.”

He handed over the book and a small ordinary bag. He did not have any more spatial bags and thus could only resort to this.

“Inside the bag are pills. The yellow ones are marrow bonding pills. Take those twice a day until they run out. The white ones are bone strengthening pills, take those twice a day afterward. The red ones are body washing pills, also do twice a day until everything runs out. Understood?”

“Yes, master.”

“Now, I will guide you in the Twelve Meridians Body Tempering. It is a true cultivation art and will prepare you for future breakthroughs. It must be done in a quiet place. Let’s go to your room.”

“Okay…”
