Feeling the majestic internal energy in his body, and his body that had almost finished recovering. He Yunxiao sincerely believed that this Soul Devouring Pill was a god-grade elixir. If only it didn’t overdraw life expectancy, it would be a god grade among gods.
This kind of god-grade elixir that restores the body and greatly increases internal strength is not found in the normal world, and only appears in the high martial worldview of the novel “Girl, I just want to cultivate”.
The so-called high martial arts worldview, specifically, means that martial arts are very strong, so strong that they are a bit exaggerated. but not too outrageous. And that elixirs and other props are also very strong, but not too much so.
In this worldview, there will be no such situation as cutting a mountain range in half with a single slash. Nor will there be an immortal elixir of living flesh and bone.
Therefore, this Soul Devouring Pill, which overdraws life expectancy in exchange for current power, is almost the top elixir in this world.
As for the limit of personal martial arts, He Yunxiao remembered that the author had mentioned a mouthful about Zhang Xian, the founding god of Qi.
He was the god of swords of his generation. The undisputed number one in the world three hundred years ago.
One man with one sword broke through the 6000 armored enemies, which was his famous battle, and also his last battle. This battle also set the upper limit on individual force.
And he did not break through an ordinary soldier in armor, but the elite heavy army of the great northern kingdom of Yan.
In the novel’s setting, the vast majority of martial artists in the world are divided into nine grades of strength, with the first grade being the weakest and the ninth grade the strongest. Above the nine grades, there is the realm of Grandmaster, which requires talent and luck and is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
As for number one in the world, it was estimated that there are realms above Zong Shi.
The medicinal power of the Soul Devouring Pill did not last long, and after about half a moment, He Yunxiao’s growing internal strength became stable.
He stood up and moved his body, striking two strokes, and felt, vaguely, that he had touched the threshold of ninth rank.
A twenty-year-old martial artist at the peak of the eighth rank is considered a martial arts wizard!
One should know that He Yunxiao, as the eldest son of Wu Qinghong, had cultivated alone to the seventh rank of martial artists, and was already the best of his generation.
Now at the peak of the eighth rank, he could have competed for the Qing Yun Ranking of the Hearing Wind Tower, a symbol of martial arts combat power.
But He Yunxiao had no such thoughts at the moment. He was only thinking about one thing right now, how to survive.
According to Chu Xiaoxiao’s character, a waste that cannot get things done is of no use. If I don’t get Du Huakui to get the hell out of Chu Fan’s way today, then I’m afraid we won’t live to see tomorrow morning.
He Yunxiao recalled the plot of the novel, trying to find the point at which Du Huakui was attracted to the protagonist, Chu Fan.
In the original novel, Du Huakui, formerly known as Du Yingyun, was the daughter of Chu Fan’s father, Chu Tianzhu’s deputy general Du Lie. The year before last, Du Lie was suddenly executed for treason, and all the men of the Du family were beheaded, while the women were sent to the Department of Education.
But Du Yinyun was bought by the owner of Spring Breeze mansion because of her beauty and her mastery of music, and she was taken into the house to become its signature flower girl. The owner of Spring Breeze House has been hiding Du Yinyun for a year, but some time ago, it was announced that Du Yinyun would soon appear before the guests.
The main character, Chu Fan, is here to seek out Du Yinyun on the day of her debut to inquire about clues to the tragic murder of her family.
In the book, Chu Fan is a cynical, decisive, calm and uncommunicative character. As the title of the book suggests, “Girl, I just want to cultivate”, the protagonist Chu Fan is dedicated to the sword and is very “single-minded” in his relationships, caring almost exclusively about his sister Chu Xiao Xiao’s opinion, except for the matter of revenge.
Although he does not resist the many female characters who come on to him, he always ignores them. Not the usual kind of indifference, but the kind of indifference that would kill him on the spot if he touched the skin of a fairy a foot away.
So much so that after 200,000 words of the original novel, Chu Fan’s emotional progress was extremely slow, and he hadn’t even touched the hands of the heroines.
If not for the fact that the female leads were too cute, otherwise He Yunxiao would not have bothered to read on.
Thinking of this, He Yunxiao was suddenly startled.
Right on! There were many episodes in the book where Chu Fan interacted with his sister and gave cold eyes to Du Huakui that had been tagged over.
Crap.
She couldn’t be a “dog licker” who liked to have a hot face on a cold ass, could she?
How outrageous!
I didn’t notice it when I was reading the book, but now that I think back, none of the female characters in this book seem to be normal.
No wonder it was “Girl, I just want to cultivate”.
With this speculation, He Yunxiao was not 100% sure, but he was 80% certain. Now he only needed to observe Du Huakui’s character with the help of the favorability system, and that would basically be 80 to 90 percent.
He Yunxiao, with his lightness, stepped on the eaves and rubble and climbed to the side of the Spring Breeze Tower.
The Spring Wind Tower is one of the most famous buildings in Yinjing, the capital city of Qi, and covers a huge area, with a main building in front and two slightly shorter side buildings at the back. all three forming a zigzag shape, connected to each other by a wooden bridge.
Only the girls in the main building do some intimate business here, while the two side buildings are all on the higher end of the one-to-one boutique service route.
In principle, the girls in the side buildings sell their art but not their bodies.
The girl He Yunxiao was looking for, Jiang Wuyou, was in principle the same. However, He Yunxiao is outside the principle, and because he is so handsome, they are currently in a state of “mutual desire”.
The situation is that He Yunxiao intends to give Jiang Wuyou money, but Jiang Wuyou does not want to, but instead wants to give He Yunxiao money.
The original owner is also a man of nature, although he is lustful, but not greedy for money. And as the eldest son of Wu Qinghong, he cannot afford to be given money by a courtesan.
The original words of Miss Jiang: “I, Jiang Wuyou, sell my art but not my body, either accept my broken silver or grab and get lost.”
But the He Yunxiao of now is no longer the He Yunxiao of old.
Now he had come a long way and was not only lustful, but also greedy for money.
A pretty girl like Jiang, who was willing to pay, would have been a rich woman in a previous life.
One had to make the most of it!
Arriving skilfully at Miss Jiang’s door, He Yunxiao didn’t knock in order to maintain his former arrogant persona, and pushed the door straight in.
Then he sat down boldly at the living room table, grabbed the snacks, and stuffed them into his mouth.
A maid came out of the inner room and, seeing that it was He Yunxiao, turned back to inform her master and left with a blush on her face.
Of course, on the way out, her eyes never left He Yunxiao’s body.
So much so that she almost tripped over the threshold on her way out.
Not long after, Jiang Wuyou, who was wearing a moon white nightgown, came out.
She was draped in hair and looked as if she had just woken up. Her face was unadorned, yet there was a natural languor, and nobility to it.

Instead of choosing to sit down first, she took a detour to touch He Yunxiao’s face before settling down beside him.
Ruffling the hair in front of her behind her ears, she got herself a cup of tea and held it up to fiddle with it, before her narrow Phoenix eyes, half-smiled and half-opened as she looked at He Yunxiao with a wry smile.
“Miss my sister?”
He Yunxiao couldn’t help but groan in his heart.
This Jiang girl was the ultimate beauty!
Are all the faces in the world of high martial arts this high?
In my previous world, she must have been a first-rate star?
Sighing, He Yunxiao didn’t dare to delay his business.
He opened the door and said, “Good sister, I don’t want to work hard anymore, just give me money.”
Jiang Wuyou almost spat out her water when she drank it.
“You’ve thought about it?”
“Think it over, come on.”
Jiang Wuyou didn’t move. Instead, she looked at He Yunxiao suspiciously.
He Yunxiao smiled heatedly, ” Sure enough, you can’t hide anything from sister.”
Jiang Wuyou gave a delicate “hum”.
“I’m not stupid.”
He Yunxiao said, “I have two things I want to ask my sister for help.”
Reaching out to nudge the tip of He Yunxiao’s nose, Jiang Wuyou turned her face away and rolled her eyes.
“I knew you bad boy didn’t have good intentions. What is it, say it.”
“First thing, now take me to see Du Huakui.”
“Little pervert.”
He Yunxiao laughed, “Same as sister.”
Jiang Wuyou said helplessly, “Fine. What about the second one?”
“The second thing, you have to wait until I see Du Huakui before I tell sister.”
Although Jiang Wuyou was puzzled, she did as she was told.
She went back to the house, changed her clothes, took her umbrella, and led He Yunxiao to Du Yinyun.
Du Yinyun lived on the other side of the side building, and the two of them had to go to the wooden bridge in the air.
“Hold the umbrella, lower it.” Jiang Wuyou said before walking on the wooden bridge.
He Yunxiao nodded and did as he was told.
It was night, high up in the building, and the cold wind was blowing.
When they finally stepped onto the wooden bridge, the cold wind disappeared without a trace.
Jiang Wuyou felt thin barrier around herself and was somewhat touched in her heart.
I asked you to hold an umbrella to cover your face, not because I was afraid of the cold.
After years of martial arts training, is this how you use your internal energy?
Little fool.
[Jiang Wuyou’s favorability level reaches 80. The strategy is successful, receive the reward “Poison Resistance Enhancement”]
He Yunxiao’s face was full of questions. I didn’t do anything. How did I succeed?
But he didn’t think too much about it. He just took it as a reward as he found it on the side of the road.
What’s the point of thinking so much?
After crossing the bridge, Jiang Wuyou said, “You stand here, I’ll go and lure Du Yinyun out. Can you take a look from afar?”
He Yunxiao nodded repeatedly.
Jiang Wuyou didn’t ask any more questions and went to knock on Du Huakui’s door alone.
He Yunxiao stood not far from Du Huaqui’s room and watched as Jiang was invited into the room and, in a short while, led a soft and frail girl out to see the moon.
The system immediately gave feedback.

Looking at the system’s evaluation of Du Yinyun’s personality, He Yunxiao expressed his understanding.
This is also a good girl, just don’t mess with the main character, messing with the main character will kill you.
Jiang Wuyou accompanied Du Huaguai for a while, and after sending her back, she rejoined He Yunxiao.
“Say, what’s the other thing?”
Having confirmed Du Huakui’s “dog licking” attribute, He Yunxiao smiled.
“The process for the debut of the Flower Girl at Spring Wind is usually a banquet, a competition, and a falling flower. The courtesan makes three appearances, and one takes longer than the other. Now that the time for the banquet is almost over, I would like to ask my sister to steal the limelight from Du Yinyun when she goes to appear the next two times.”
Jiang Wuyou was surprised, “Today is her debut show, how can I compete with her?”
He Yunxiao patted his chest and said, “I’m here, I’ll make sure my sister steals the show.”
