Chapitre 12: Next Goal and Hu Wen.
The White Lotus Sect is a super sect of continental size, distinguishing itself from other sects uniquely: it only accepts female disciples.
Led by Xu Xifeng, a renowned cultivator, the sect was founded by her after she achieved fame in a world dominated by men.
With branches spread across the continent, even in remote places like Cloud City, which is the closest city to the infamous Hell and Fang Xue's next destination.
-----------------------------
Xia Shan suspected that Fang Xue might be from the White Lotus Sect, as encountering such a formidable cultivator was a rare occurrence.
"White Lotus Sect? I remember a few things about them, but my intuition tells me I'll find something I need there," thought Fang Xue, determining her next goal.
Interpreting Fang Xue's silence as confirmation, Xia Shan decided to swiftly eliminate her. As a mere subordinate of low rank from a medium-sized family, his support wouldn't offend a powerhouse like the White Lotus Sect.
Xia Shan kicked the ground towards Fang Xue, who swiftly dodged to the side. However, Xia Shan had anticipated this and threw a powerful punch at Fang Xue.
Remaining calm, Fang Xue defended herself with the sword she had recently acquired. However, lacking balance and proficiency in swordsmanship, she was forced to retreat a few meters.
Trying to steady herself on the ground, Fang Xue found no respite as Xia Shan relentlessly continued his assault. Aware that constant pressure was essential for victory, he recognized his broken arm as a significant disadvantage.
Knowing that Fang Xue lacked combat experience despite her strength, Xia Shan maintained his assault, while Fang Xue, blocking the repeated punches, remained calm and expressionless.
"By adjusting my grip this way, it's more effective... I can block this attack with less force... If I do this..." These were Fang Xue's thoughts as she used Xia Shan as a training dummy.
Time passed, and after 15 minutes, Xia Shan began to feel tired. Despite maintaining continuous pressure on Fang Xue, he had been unable to inflict any real damage.
Observing Fang Xue's emotionless face with only a few drops of sweat on her forehead, Xia Shan started to worry.
"Should I run away?" he pondered. However, his thoughts were interrupted as Fang Xue's muscles emitted a faint light.
Without time to contemplate, Xia Shan used his only working arm to defend against the danger he sensed coming from his left. But even that wasn't enough to stop Fang Xue's powerful and swift sword slash, which severed Xia Shan's arms and head in a single strike. Fang Xue quickly jumped back, avoiding the spray of blood from Xia Shan's headless neck.
Having used the Chaotic Star Formula skill again, albeit not at full capacity, Fang Xue only felt slight soreness in her upper muscles instead of a significant backlash.
"I need to find a way to fight without getting too dirty," Fang Xue sighed, unfazed by the scene before her, despite it being the second time she had killed a human.
"Has Li'er managed to heal that girl yet?" pondered Fang Xue, ignoring the pain in her muscles as she quickly scanned the assassins' bodies for anything useful.
"Come here quickly," Li Qiang's voice sounded in Fang Xue's mind.
Swiftly tucking an old-looking book and a porcelain flask into her clothing, Fang Xue hurried back to Li Qiang.
-------- Going back in time a bit ----------
Li Qiang was collecting medicinal herbs she had spotted along the way.
"I wonder if little Xue will be okay. It's her first time fighting and killing another human, even if she's only half of one," thought Li Qiang, feeling a bit concerned as she returned to where Hu Wen lay.
Using her tiny paws to apply the herbs to Hu Wen's abdominal wound, Li Qiang took a closer look at the girl's features and wondered, somewhat irrationally, "Could it be that little Xue wants to save her just because she's beautiful?" Her thoughts turned to her own human appearance, and she felt a sense of pride. "Hmpf... Just wait until I return to my human form. This girl won't even compare to 1/1000 of my beauty," she thought, somewhat narcissistic.
Lost in thought and focused on applying the herbs, Li Qiang didn't notice that Hu Wen's eyelids were fluttering slightly.
Opening her eyes slightly and feeling an itch in her abdomen, Hu Wen realized she was lying down and looked down at the source of the sensation.
"Did I die?" she wondered, observing a rabbit applying herbs to its own abdomen and moving its mouth as if mumbling something.
Closing her eyes again, partly to recall what had happened to her and partly to dismiss the hallucination, Hu Wen began to reflect on recent events.
She, Hu Wen, was the little princess of the Hu clan, a medium-sized clan. However, despite her privileged upbringing and the love of her parents, she possessed no talent for cultivation.
This fact had always weighed heavily on her heart, as in a world where the strong ruled over the weak, she felt incapable of repaying her family's love.
The Le Family, a formidable enemy of the Hu clan, had attempted to capture her as a hostage and bargaining chip against her family. Fearing her fate, Hu Wen had managed to escape her captors through sheer luck. However, in her desperate flight, she encountered two Body Training practitioners who injured her when she resisted.
Just as she believed there was no way to escape her fate, a light had emitted from the necklace her father had given her on her 10th birthday, repelling the cultivators' attacks.
Finding a momentary gap, she had run with all her strength into the heart of the forest, eventually losing her pursuers. Weakened by her injuries and loss of blood, she couldn't endure any longer and fainted.
But before losing consciousness, she recalled seeing the back of a figure, seemingly a wet woman with beautiful black hair streaked with white, which only enhanced her allure...
