Chapter 107 Heartbeat
Last Updated:
2022-07-04 20:20:36Snowfall on Mount Mei was slightly stronger than that in Luoyang, and a chilly wind was blowing. It howled across the mountain, and the secluded valley, with its shriveled grass and single flickering flame looked far from civilisation and pitiful.
There was a small pile of firewood in the cave now, and a fire was burning beside it. Not far away from it lay the still unconscious Red Bean. Her soaked long robes had already been dried by the fire, but it was obvious that the temperature in the cave was still a little cold for her.
Her eyes were shut, and she kept shivering. At the same time, her brows were tightly furrowed, and it was evident that she was suffering.
Ye Que stood serenely beside the fire. He was holding onto a wooden stick, and a snowcock was pierced through by it.
The feathers of the chicken had been plucked cleanly off, and its innards had already been dug out, leaving only the tender flesh of the bird on the sti

Why did his heart beat 52821 times? Ye Que had begun counting when both his and Red Bean's heart were beating to the same rhythm, up till the time when hers began to beat irregularly. Ye Que knew that the woman he was hugging close to his chest had already awoken when he sensed the difference in her heartbeat. Otherwise, it would not have undergone such a change. Instinctively, he lowered his head to look at Red Bean. He realized that she was still nestled in his chest and had not moved at all. There was not even any difference in the regularity of her breathing, and she looked as though she was a newborn child. Her eyes were still tightly shut, and her long eyelashes did not blink at all, as if she was deep in sleep. Ye Que knew that she was already awake, however, and wanted to wake her up when he realized that he was hugging her. What should he tell her after waking her up? How could he explain himself? In an instant, Ye Que

After eating the whole wild boar, Red Bean patted on her stomach and wiped her mouth contentedly. A small mountain of pig bones was piled up next to the fire, and there was no meat left on the bones. All the meat had been eaten. "Are you full now?" Ye Que asked, sitting next to her. He was really shocked now after watching Red Bean to eat the whole wild boar from the beginning, because the weight of this pig was about to catch up with two of her. So how could this whole wild boar be loaded with such a little belly? Ye Que's expression was now full of curiosity. "Half full, maybe." Looking at Ye Que, Red Bean said casually, "I will eat it later, now I have to consume the calories." "Half full!" After hearing the answer from Red Bean, Ye Que decided not to talk anymore. This little girl was too anomalous. How could she eat meat so fierce like a monster? If he could smell any Demonic Qi on Red Bean, Ye

Ye Que returned to the cave under the falling snow. After feeding Red Bean's bottomless belly, the story continued. Red Bean had long been waiting. She seemed to love the stories, and for the first time, she found that listening to a human telling story was such a happy thing. What she used to do every day was really boring, although there was a reason that she had to do that and would never waver. But this did not affect her to cultivate her own interests and hobbies. These two words were also learned from the stories of Ye Que. The Eldest Young Ladies in Luoyang City and the Princess of the Royal Palace also had their own interests and hobbies. Red Bean thought, since she was also a Royal Highness, she must have an interest and hobby. It was a very tangled thing to decide on hobbies and interests for other people, but Red Bean made decisions quickly. Her later interest was to listen to Ye Que to tell stories, an

It had been snowing for seven days and seven nights in Mount Mei. In the early morning of the eighth day, the snow finally stopped and the sun was rising. Ye Que and Red Bean were standing outside the cave and looking into the distance. All they could see were white. The roads up the mountain and down the mountain were all covered with heavy snow. There was no footprint on the snow. "I want to go back to Luoyang City, what about you? Go home?" Ye Que asked. "I'm wandering in the Human World, and I can go anywhere." "It's not the time to return home yet. I have told you that I am going to be the best practitioner of the world." "So, I decide to go to Luoyang with you. Since Luoyang claims to be the Divine Capital, there are certainly many opportunities to meet the masters from all over the world. After I completely refine the Dragon Bone in my body, I will start to challenge them." Red Bean said calml

The road was covered with white grasses, and they were leaving the mountain with steps on snow. Ye Que was slowly walking in the small path of Mount Mei, with a series of footprints leaving behind and a girl in white on his back. The sun shined on the body Red Bean warmly. With one side warmed by Ye Que's body, and the other side warmed by sunshine, as well as some jolt while walking, Red Bean fell asleep. Listening to the snoring sounds near his ear, Ye Que slowed down and kept his body as stable as possible. It seemed that he subconsciously did not want to wake up Red Bean. The snow was deep on the ground, and the knees had been submerged by the deepest point. But for Ye Que, it was not difficult to walk. As the temperature rose, the snow on the mountain road began to slowly melt, and the top layer had already melted into condensation like crystal. He had been walking down the mountain along the path from the mountainside. Af

The waiter of the wine shop heard the shout from Red Bean and was stunned, he thought that he had got it wrong. He had seen the girl who was expansive, and the chivalrous lady who could even drink three bowls of Tusu at once, but he had never seen such a 'rich bucket' who could eat a whole sheep. Even a strong man couldn't eat a whole sheep for a meal. Sprinting to the Red Bean's table, the waiter said with a smile on his face, "Miss, how much mutton do you want? I was a little stunned, so I was not sure, truly sorry." "First, I want a whole sheep. If it is not enough, I will ask you again. Be hurry, I'm almost starved to death." Red Bean said impatiently. The waiter subconsciously looked at Ye Que, he seemed to say, "Is your friend all right? Does she really want a whole sheep? Although our shop can afford it, the point is I'm afraid of your waste." Understanding the meaning of the waiter, Ye Que patted his shoul

There was no sound in the lobby of the wine shop. Ye Que looked at Red Bean, he licked his forehead helplessly. Every discerning person knew that the identity of these big men was definitely complex. They came to the shop not just for eating or drinking, anyone with clear mind and discernment would have known what they wanted. These people were coming to rob! Even the waiter standing at the doorway was helpless and licked his chest. He thought, "I'm afraid that someone is going to be hurt today. And maybe our small shop will not only close down, but also go to court. If a person dies in our shop, we will be responsible anyway." "Little girl, have you eaten too much meat and drunk too much wine so that your brain has been filled with water? Can't you see the problem at all? Don't be so rude to them even if you don't have money. If you want to die, don't bring others together." "It hurts not only yours

"The knight-errant who specializes in heroism?" Whether other people believe it or not, anyway, the remaining big men in the lobby would not believe that, because the knight-errant would help others when they saw the evils, but this person aimed to kill them. Mowing, mowing, what he mowed were their lives. The soldiers who fought in the battlefield and pledged allegiance to the country were actually described as wild grasses in the mouth of these people. "What do you want to do?" "Stand still!" "I will fight with you if you come over!" "It's better to fight for our lives than being caught without resistance. There was no coward in the Ye Army. Let's hack this bastard!" Knowing that they wouldn't be released anyway, the remaining six big men screamed and rushed toward the strong man in fur coat. Everyone was red-eyed, gritting their teeth and waving their swords in anger. However, it cou

Li Jianqi was a Formless Realm expert who had absorbed the Battle Soul of the Great Founder. Even though she was not well versed in formations, she did not have to be so careful. However, both Uncle Jiao and her walked extremely carefully. The higher the realm, the more a practitioner was able to understand how tough the path to cultivation was, and the more he or she was able to understand that there was always someone more powerful than them out there. Moreover, the formations gave off an obvious prehistoric aura and were evidently not from any technique of the current Cultivation World. As such, neither of them dared to take the formations lightly. They were not in the royal palace. Who knew what sort of offensive capabilities Ye Que had incorporated into these formations? What if they attacked them without differentiating between friend and foe? They were not really worried about dying in the manor, but mostly they were afr

Even Ye Que himself was not entirely sure of the phenomenon, much less Li Jianqi. However, a lack of understanding would not obstruct him from learning. The Divine Book seemed to have grown increasingly amazing. Till now, there were already more than 20000 Divine Sect Seminary disciples, and its name was already known among all of the people at the bottom of society in Luoyang. It did not collect fees nor commission and imparted cultivation methods for free. It took it upon itself to explain one's doubts in cultivation away, and it was not a front. The methods Ye Que taught his disciples really allowed them to sense Nature's Spiritual Qi. It was only natural that something as wonderful as this was passed on by mouth, and more people began joining. No one was able to withstand the temptation of progressing in the world of cultivation once he or she entered it. Naturally, they would join the wild goose chase. As its

Winning the competition held among the troops stationed in Luoyang with a set of saber skills? One had to know that the Southern Encampment did not consist of troops stationed at the border. Even though they underwent much training, their prowess in battle was still somewhat behind the border troops. During the previous competitions of such small groups of a thousand soldiers each, the four encampments were not favorites to win. Ye Que had just allowed 1000 soldiers from the Southern Encampment to win the competition after teaching them a set of saber techniques consisting of only about a dozen moves over three days! It was no wonder that Zhang Yue would find it necessary to report the matter to Li Jianqi. "Is the saber technique related to the Southern Encampment winning the competition?" Li Jianqi asked somewhat suspiciously. There were battle techniques in the army as well. Each encampment had its own recognize

Ye Que remained in the Southern Encampment for three days. Ye Que began to hypothesize on the third day the reason that caused the strange phenomenon within his Spiritual Sea. With the aid of the soldiers, Ye Que was finally able to come to a conclusion. The Divine Sect Seminary disciples and the soldiers had practiced the Mountain-Splitting, Water-ceasing and Heaven-Splitting techniques, and there was no reaction from his Spiritual Sea if there were 100 or less than them. If there were more than 100 of them, however, his Spiritual Sea would begin to froth, but only when seminary disciples who had learned the Divine Sect's cultivation technique were present. It did not react when soldiers from the Southern Encampment practiced the Mountain-Splitting stroke. Also, if the energy and spirits of the disciples were not in sync, and they were training at their own pace, there would not be any reaction from his Spiritual Sea. Four cri

"Lend me a thousand soldiers. I have to test a hypothesis." The figure in red light armor standing in front of the military monument had just stopped releasing more sword energy when Ye Que walked up to her. When she turned to face him, Li Jianqi's aura had reverted back to the youthful and beautiful young woman, completely devoid of the bloodthirsty battle intent she displayed earlier on. As Ye Que thought about it, he believed that it should be the effects of absorbing her ancestor's Battle Soul in the Imperial Mausoleum. "Ye Que?" Li Jianqi exclaimed, somewhat shocked. "You want to borrow a thousand soldiers? For a deduction?" "Stop asking me so many questions. I can't explain all of them right away. Just tell me if you would lend them to me?" Ye Que asked somewhat impatiently. Anyone would also be in a hurry to prove his or her theory correct after experiencing so many amazing things and a way of amplifying the power of one's own cultiva
Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 162 Who's Carving?
Three saber strokes were made before the gates of the seminary. Ye Que's Spiritual Sea exploded thrice. Ye Que nearly stumbled off the Bridge of Long Life and looked incredulously at the disciples not far away from him. They had still not noticed him and were still practicing their saber techniques. This was because they had also discovered something amazing. It was common for practitioners to be unable to grasp the essence of their training while practicing saber techniques on their own. Their physical selves, sabers, Spiritual Forces, Spiritual Seas and pathways of their sabers were always in disharmony. Training with thousands of other people, however, would speed things up, causing man and saber to reach a state of harmony very quickly, as if the larger the number of practitioners, the greater the benefits. Some of the practitioners had not realized this fact during the first round of training, but by the third round, even

Xichuan Town was a small ordinary town at the western border of Tang State, but it was renowned far and wide. This was because it was situated at a position that was nearly as far away from each of the six neighboring nations at the western border. During a normal day, cargo and trade flowed in and out of the town, as did merchants and travelers. A teahouse was located at the entrance to the town, and two elders sat at a table near the windows. Both of them had white hair, and a chess set was placed right in front of them. The black and white chess pieces were engaged in a titanic battle, and the moves they made were so complicated that it was hard to tell who would emerge as the victor. The elder on the left of the table pinched up a white chess piece with his fingers. "The Tang State has sent out 30 thousand light cavalries to Western Xia. Looks like they are expecting a quick victory." The other elder at the opposite end of the table laug

Gradually, the sky took on a marble-white color as dawn arrived. Frost and dew gathered on the walls of the palace. Li Chunzhi's brows were decorated with a layer of frost. The Chief Councillor of the Grand Council of Tang State trailed behind him, with the imperial bodyguards staying put a short distance away. Countless cultivators from the Judicature lay in ambush at all corners. Tang State continued to be compromised from all sides. If anything happened to Li Chunzhi, it would be the cherry on top of their misfortune. No one went up to stop him. Neither did they dare to. They could all tell that this soon-to-be Emperor was stewed in worries underneath his expressionless face. At dawn, Li Jianqi draped a white robe over her shoulders and climbed up the tower atop the walls. She stood behind Li Chunzhi and contemplated for some time before saying gently, "Father, you should mind your health. You've stood here for an entire nig
Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 159 Turbulent Night
Inside the quiet General's Manor, a black-clothed man was shouting himself hoarse. Ye Que didn't think he would be ambushed on his first official return to the manor or that the assassins would be survivors of the Ye Army. These people must have mistaken him for being a Devil Seed after he used his Sword Qi to bind them. Perhaps the battle in You Prefecture left too deep a trauma in them that they would mistake anyone with supernatural powers as a cultivator, a devil, and the culprit behind their brothers' massacre. "Did all of you run from the city of You Prefecture?" Ye Que had released the bind his Sword Qi placed on them. The group of men remained deeply wary of him even after they were freed. However, they refused to let Ye Que distort the truth out of principle. "I'll repeat this again. We didn't flee from the battle. We broke out of the siege under Chief Wu's orders. We didn't run." The person repeated hims
