After four days of rest, under the suggestion of many 'followers', Ye Chu Xiao had no choice but to move on to the next destination.

At this time, Ye Chu Xiao had been kidnapped by the 'general trend'. Although there was no obstruction wherever he went, he could not stop according to his own will.

On the vast ocean, Ye Chu Xiao lay on a deck chair. On his left and right sides were four beauties in swimsuits.

Judging by their looks alone, they were all peerless beauties.

A glance revealed that they were all different in height and stature, with varying degrees of plumpness and slenderness, each with its own unique charm.

Some were peeling spirit fruits for Ye Chu Xiao, some were holding iced drinks and snacks, and others were kneading his shoulders and back, massaging his legs and stomach. Judging from the strength of their techniques, they had all been specially trained, with the scale just right—a little more would not be stimulating enough, and a little less would not be ambiguous enough.

But Ye Chu Xiao was not happy.

Beauties were not what he sought. Indulging in matters between men and women was a waste of time for him.

However, faced with followers who wholeheartedly worshiped and devoted themselves to him, he had no choice but to enjoy their offerings and accept their care.

"Ye Chu Xiao! Ye Chu Xiao! How can you be so lazy?" Gazing at the distant sea line, Ye Chu Xiao perked up.

"Find a few people whose cultivation is similar to mine. I want to practice with them. It’s been too long since I fought, and my combat skills are getting rusty." In order to delay time and cultivate the Nine Deaths Demonic Art, Ye Chu Xiao decided to have a hearty battle, preferably one that would leave him seriously injured.

"If you want to exercise, why look for others? We sisters can all accompany you," the beauties said with charming smiles.

The tall beauty sitting on Ye Chu Xiao's right side, with slender and soft fingers, who had been rubbing his temples, rose gracefully.

She opened her right hand, and a precious sword still carrying frost and ice crystals appeared in her palm: "Since Young Master Wang wants to stretch his muscles, then let Jia Rou accompany you first! If Jia Rou can't defeat you, then we sisters will take turns."

With that, Jia Rou, dressed in a white floral one-piece swimsuit, gently brushed a strand of hair behind her ear.

Her snow-white skin radiated a dazzling white light under the sun.

Her exquisite body even gave the impression of being carved from crystal-clear white jade.

Her long, slender legs were straight and slender, now reflecting the light of the slender ice-blue sword.

"Oh? What is your cultivation realm?" Ye Chu Xiao asked.

Jia Rou's head of long black hair danced in the sea breeze.

With a shy smile, the girl replied, "Neng realm, third level, but I can suppress my cultivation to the Bitter realm."

Ye Chu Xiao casually took out a treasured saber he had recently acquired from his storage ring.

The silver-bright saber gleamed dazzlingly in the sun.

"No need to suppress it. I am no ordinary Bitter realm cultivator. Neng realm cultivation is just right for me," Ye Chu Xiao said confidently.

In an instant, the battle began.

The sounds of clanging weapons rang out incessantly.

Two figures moved quickly back and forth on the deck. The powerful true qi was contained within a small area. Occasionally, some force leaked out, but before it could destroy the furnishings on the deck, it was jointly intercepted by the beauties.

Two beauties with identical faces and similar figures, but very different temperaments, folded their palms together, joining hands to form an array. kuai shuge

The array diagram spread across the deck, covering more than half of it, and confined the aftermath of the battle between Ye Chu Xiao and Jia Rou within the array, without leaking a trace.

In this way, Ye Chu Xiao wielded his saber even more recklessly.

Gradually, he exerted at least eighty percent of his true abilities, leaving only twenty percent unrevealed.

After all, this was just a friendly exchange.

Ten minutes later, Ye Chu Xiao seemed to have the upper hand. The hand wielding the saber became faster and fiercer, increasing the speed and frequency of his swings, launching a series of fierce attacks.

He wanted to end the battle within a few minutes, forcing Jia Rou to disarm and surrender.

At this moment, Ye Chu Xiao was extremely confident.

His face was full of high spirits, anticipating victory.

Twenty minutes later, Ye Chu Xiao's saber swings gradually slowed down, and he began to adopt a hit-and-run tactic. His originally fierce fighting style shifted to a more refined one.

At this time, Ye Chu Xiao was much more cautious. He could see that Jia Rou's swordsmanship was better at defense.

She was like a mountain spring that seemed soft and weak but was actually continuous and endless. The connection between her sword moves was direct. Although it showed a sense of craftsmanship, it was an advantage because it was too pure and skilled.

Because such a skillful sword style, if it reached a certain level of proficiency, would be enough to almost completely simulate and reproduce the moves created by predecessors.

Sometimes, not pursuing excessive excellence and unattainable transcendence is a more practical form of excellence.

Fighting with Jia Rou gave Ye Chu Xiao many insights.

He had a knack for skills and was more likely to break away from the original constraints of moves, launching imaginative attacks.

But this also had its drawbacks, which was that sometimes his moves seemed stunning at first glance, but lacked the experience of being tempered and refined. If he encountered an opponent who was stable enough and simply defended in the usual way, he might suffer a setback.

This also reminded Ye Chu Xiao that while pursuing innovation, freedom, and self-will, he should also use the framework of routines to practice, learn, and imitate, and to feel the deeper meaning in the moves that had been tempered and refined.

At this time, Ye Chu Xiao had completely abandoned his frivolous attitude, discarded his slight prejudice against Jia Rou, and completely immersed himself in this battle.

Thirty minutes later, Ye Chu Xiao seemed a little tired, and this fatigue was not only physical but also mental.

Jia Rou's cultivation was higher after all, and she seemed to be holding back.

Forty minutes later, Jia Rou smiled and conceded defeat, but her calm expression showed that she had not exerted much physical or mental strength.

This woman was definitely not just a pretty face.

She was a true daughter of heaven.

So the question was, why was such a daughter of heaven serving by Ye Chu Xiao's side like a maid?

Ye Chu Xiao looked at those smiling faces and sensed the cunning of the cultivators in this world.

What chuunibyou... wasn't this just a good way to use confinement and surveillance?

"Sure enough, chuunibyou isn't stupidity. Of course, they also have their principles and bottom lines, otherwise my current situation might be even worse."

Looking at Jia Rou, who had conceded defeat, Ye Chu Xiao shook his head and said, "No! I lost! I'm completely convinced!"

"Although your swordsmanship doesn't have its own spirit, you are a very good learner and imitator. Before my saber technique truly becomes its own school, it's too disadvantageous to compete with you."

Although he lost, Ye Chu Xiao recognized his own shortcomings and was not discouraged.

"Rest for a while, and then we'll change opponents. I want to fight against cultivators from different systems and get used to the rhythm of fighting different cultivators," Ye Chu Xiao said.

At this time, Ye Chu Xiao realized his own serious shortcomings.

Although he had a lot of 'experience', this experience came from the memories of other cultivators and was not his personal experience.

Cultivation is not just about shutting yourself off to train.

It is also necessary to have direct exchanges with others.

Then, summarize from failures and successes.
