Chapter 10: Xiaoyi Attacks!
That night at Azurewind Peak, the wind was blowing noisily, but the arrays in Shu Yidan's residence masked the sound. Inside, the arrays covered everything, down to the floors and up to the ceiling.
The residence was something that should belong to a Nascent Soul realm Elder, and its array defenses were on that level. Inside, a Nascent Soul cultivator could defend against a Divine Transformation cultivator.
A stupid brat of a Qi Refining cultivator was gonna assault this residence in some time. So, Shu Yidan was laying the welcoming touches.
His cultivation base had fallen from Peak Golden Core to Initial Golden Core. The overall quantity of qi was reduced from 100% to 10%.
Initial Golden Core meant that 1-10% of Golden Core energy reserves were filled. Likewise, Early Golden Core meant 11%-40%, Middle Golden Core meant 41%-70%, Late Golden Core meant 71%-99% and Peak Golden Core meant 100% of his Golden Core energy reserves were filled.
Shu Yidan had been afflicted with a strange curse. At peak Golden Core, he literally couldn't control a drop of qi within his reserves. Like this, he completely lost the ability to march to enter Nascent Soul.
As the amount of qi lessened, his ability to control his cultivation base rose. At around 33%, he regained complete control.
Terrible luck. He couldn't battle with Initial Golden Core reserves, the amount of qi was too little, he could exchange 5-6 blows at the most. He couldn't use pills to accumulate 33% energy, his predecessor's accumulated resistance to drugs had fucked that up hard for him. He couldn't use his talismans either...
So, only one option remained.
Waiting for the time to arrive, Shu Yidan did some breathing techniques to stabilize his recently fallen cultivation base. Feng Shiyao too was rhythmically breathing, though it was in an unconscious sleep. The two voices resounded in a harmony of sorts.
Until a fierce strike broke through the door of the residence.

Xiaoyi walked up on the stairs that led up to Azurewind Peak with a steady pace. It was to meet her Master's other disciple… and challenge him to battle.
It hadn't been even an hour since she had returned to this sect in her master's tow. The man who had raised her since her first breath was actually the Heavenly Wind Sect's Sect Master. Naturally as his disciple, it would be her duty to inherit the sect.
But of course, she wasn't alone as the Sect Master's direct disciple. The Elders of this sect had propped up a boy named Shu Yidan as her Master's disciple when he was raising her, all to seize the ample resources that such a status would provide!
As her Master's disciple, she couldn't tolerate such treachery. Naturally, her first action after returning would be to pull down such a pretender.
As a Qi Refining realm cultivator, even thinking of battling Shu Yidan should be an impossibility. But from what she had heard, Shu Yidan was a idiot who broke through to Golden Core Realm via using a demonic technique, and his ascent to peak Golden Core was through pills, pills and pills! He used resources that he appropriated via his false status quite well, it seemed.
But she herself was an existence whose sword had executed a peak Golden Core cultivator in battle. Sword Immortal Descendent Blood Lineage – This lofty lineage held her miles above trash like Shu Yidan. Butchering a pig fattened by pills was a matter of course!
Standing before the door that barred her way, she thought of announcing her return. But she realized it wouldn't be grand enough. No, the best was to announce her return would be via activating the Warning-alarm Array, causing fear to run through the fat pig's heart!
One draw, one slash! The sword strike struck the door. It should have caused the formation guarding the door to buckle, but strangely it didn't.
Xiaoyi wondered if something had gone wrong. Could the formation have malfunctioned?
Then, when the door shattered into sawdust, she realized that the poor fat pig had somehow screwed up the arrays of the doors.
Walking boldly inside like a king entering her castle, she saw a sight she had never before seen in her life. A naked woman and a man, in a lurid embrace…

Watching the naive girl enter the carefully set scene, Shu Yidan heaved a sigh of relief. Standing up as if he had just noticed the broken door, Shu Yidan got off the bed… completely naked. He showed some panic and hastily put on some clothes before proceeding carefully towards the broken door and the small figure that had barged from there.
"Who are you? How dare you break open the doors?! Do you know whose residence you have stolen into?!" With brave words yet a fearful voice, Shu Yidan acted like a man facing a vicious intruder.
"Hahaha, does the Sect Master's disciple only have such strength?! What shameful matter were you doing without clothes?" Xiaoyi's voice threatening him seemed strangely cute in a way.
"Knowing my status, you dare to intrude? To think that a assassin would attack precisely at the time I was in dual cultivation, break open the doors precisely when the formations weren't being used and even attack exactly when I was in climax to break my cultivation… Of course, the person sent to kill me won't be a Golden Core… I'll probably die today." Shu Yidan's voice analyzing the circumstances seemed to be fear-struck at the start, but entered coldness at the end.
"Since you want to kill me, I won't mind having you accompany me to Hell! Absolute Wind Divine Formation, Start Execution!" The formation that covered everything in the cultivation residence seemed to grasp the entire strength of the wind of the world.
Array lines appeared everywhere like spells and Xiaoyi suddenly realized she faced a power she could not fathom.
"This Cultivation Residence's array formation is something exquisite! If a Nascent Soul cultivator were here, he could defend against a Divine Transformation existence! But defending means nothing… so I'll bring apart my life for the strength of Nascent Soul realm, all to kill you!!!" Shu Yidan crazily laughed.
"Nascent Soul magical strength… hahaha, I will never be able to reach that realm in life… but if I kill you, it will be worth it to live a cripple!!!" As the magical energy of a Nascent Soul cultivator shone around her and the door behind her was sealed in dark winds, Xiaoyi realized that a night assault was a very bad plan after all…
