The First Beastmaster of the Nine Realms

Chapter 29

A few days ago, Xue Huai'er didn't take a good look at Jian Baisan's behavior of boiling his hands in a pot. He disliked the bad smell of the medicine, and he was either sneering or sarcastic every day.

When Jian Baisan persisted until the tenth day, Xue Huai'er got up in the morning and stood far away at the gate of the courtyard, but did not mock her.

Xue Huai'er suddenly asked: "Jian Baisan, what is your Dao heart?"

Jian Baisan was taken aback.

Xue Huai'er was uncommonly calm, rubbing the hilt of his sword with one hand, and said: "For example, I practice Taoism for the sake of my family."

"As I grew up, I borrowed a lot of power from my family. I practiced Taoism so that my family could one day move from the Chuyuan State to the Lingdan Realm, and even to the Empty Realm."

She stared closely at Jian Baisan next to the small kitchen, and said, "It doesn't matter if you insult me, but if you insult my family, I will fight to the death!"

Sitting aside, Ji Dingxiang flinched.

"So my Dao heart is everything to my family. The family's property, the family's reputation - one day, I want people to hear about Xue's family, just like hearing about Zhongxian Mountain! Be afraid, be in awe!"

Xue Huai'er said to Jian Baisan: "I have never seen such a strange person like you. You have suffered this kind of physical pain like a punishment, but it is the same as if you have not suffered it - cooking your hands in high-temperature water! Don't you know that if you can't practice well, your hands will be useless?"

Xue Huai'er repeated patiently: "I'm curious what makes you persist. Tell me, what is your Dao heart?"

Jian Baisan by the pot was stopped by the question.

She met the two eyes and thought for a long time, but couldn't think of an answer.

In the end, she could only honestly say: "It's better to say that you are used to being next to each other? In our place, when everyone is hungry, they can only starve, and if they can't survive, they will starve to death."

Xue Huai'er's originally curious eyes became colder and colder.

"After coming here, everyone felt that it was a shame to kneel down, but in our place, if you saw the magistrate and the county magistrate on the street, you would be whipped if you didn't kneel. And now the cultivation is uncomfortable, but at least I can become stronger..."

"I thought you had some powerful Dao heart," Xue Huai'er interrupted her impatiently, the rare seriousness on his face disappeared again, revealing a disgust that was heavier than the few times he saw her before, "In the end, don't mention Dao Xin, you are an animal at all! It's no different from a dog!"

The expression on Ji Dingxiang's face suddenly became tangled, she looked left at Jian Baisan, right at Xue Huai'er, at a loss, as if she didn't know how to persuade the fight.

Jian Baisan knew in her heart that she should be angry, but at this time she was strangely not angry, and felt as if she should listen to Xue Huaier's words: "Why?"

Xue Huai'er was already ready to leave. Hearing her question, she couldn't help but brushed off her sleeves, and said with a sneer: "Dogs only follow orders from outside like this. Even if you are a heavenly root and have no Dao heart, you will not be able to do so in this life. You can't even get to the golden core. In vain, I thought you were some kind of capable person... It's disgusting."

After speaking, he slammed the door and left.

Ji Dingxiang said cautiously: "You also know her temper... Baisan, don't take it too seriously."

Jian Baisan shook his head at her, indicating that she was fine.

In the days to come, Xue Huai'er didn't know where she went, and she went out early and returned late every day, at most she only nodded to Ji Dingxiang as a greeting, and ignored Jian Baisan who smelled strongly of medicine and even blood.

But now, at the last moment when the first stage of "Iron Birch Hand" is about to be successfully cultivated, Jian Baisan stared, endured the dizziness, and for some reason, this question suddenly popped up in his mind: "What is it? Her heart?"

No one can know the answer to this question.

In the pot, the last piece of her flesh was slowly attached to the palm of her hand after being tempered by the iron-gray medicinal soup, exuding a faint gray color.

The severe pain that had tortured her for 30 days disappeared in an instant.The temperature in the pot was still at that temperature, but the color of the medicinal soup was almost invisible.Jian Baisan's hands were soaked in it, and it felt as comfortable as soaking in warm water.

After blinking, I realized that the things in front of me finally stopped fading. The yellow dog, black iron pot, blue brick, and purple lilac all suddenly became colorful.

Ji Dingxiang also noticed that her state had changed, and rushed over immediately.After running halfway, he stopped again, looked at Jian Baisan's face without looking at the pot, and said, "Can you see your hands now?"

Jian Baisan said: "Okay."

Only then did Ji Dingxiang turn around.

Jian Baisan took his hand out of the pot, cooled it with the water in the jar next to it, and looked at it carefully with the curious Ji Dingxiang.

Jian Baisan could feel that the state of the bones and flesh of the hands had all changed.Now she feels that she doesn't need her own Lei Jin, just using these two hands can smash the bark like a hammer smashing a tree.

The skin of these hands is still of normal skin color, and even because of the rebirth of flesh and blood, it is a degree whiter than her overall skin color.But at the same time, when you turn your wrist, you can see a faint metallic luster on your hands.

Ji Dingxiang next to him looked at it for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Sister, can I touch it?"

Jian Baisan said generously, "Touch it."

Ji Dingxiang poked it with his fingers first, then stroked his fingers, shook Jian Baisan's hand, and exclaimed, "It's really different!"

"Your hand now feels like a piece of iron, very hard, and then feels a little cold."

Jian Baisan said abruptly, "You cut me down."

"what?"

"Slash me with the saber on my waist."

Fearing that Ji Dingxiang would cut it in the wrong place, Jian Baisan added, "It's not somewhere else."

Ji Dingxiang said speechlessly: "I'm sick, will I suddenly stab your thigh?"

Pulling out Jian Baisan's saber, Ji Dingxiang slashed lightly with the force of chopping green onions, without shaking Jian Baisan's wrist: "Try to be stronger."

Ji Dingxiang gave a "drink" and slashed with [-]% of his strength, only to hear the sound of "Zeng", Jian Baisan's hand shook, but he was unscathed.

Ji Dingxiang's eyes widened: "It's too powerful...! With this strength, if you replace it with ordinary meat, you can chop bones!"

"You have this, when the time comes to pick spirit beasts, you can pick the ones that are very aggressive, and your hands can be used as shields!"

Jian Baisan didn't reply to her second sentence, but she was quite happy in her heart, and invited, "Do you want to practice too? This martial art is a high-level Huang rank, so it costs fifty points."

"I don't want to." Ji Dingxiang quickly refused.

Ji Dingxiang was quite discouraged and said: "The martial arts I want to practice is also a high-level yellow class, and it requires [-] points. Anyway, I have no hope of being on the list. I went to the Consul Hall to do several similar I only earned three points for small tasks such as sweeping the spirit beast garden and copying classics..."

"I don't dare to sign up for those big tasks with five or ten points... Hey!"

Ji Dingxiang's eyes suddenly lit up, and she stared at Jian Baisan.This guy can easily defeat Xue Huai'er, so his strength must be much higher than her, and now he has practiced such a powerful martial skill - if he can go on missions with her, maybe he can earn points!

And Jian Baisan's personality is also very good, being friends with her doesn't feel the pressure of being friends with the kind of arrogant genius in the center of the legend.On the contrary, she could see that Jian Baisan treated her very equally.

Jian Baisan looked at the girl's eyes that suddenly became hot: "?"

Ji Dingxiang jumped over and grabbed her hand, and looked up pitifully: "Jane—bai—san—you and I go to pick up the task together!"

Jian Baisan was almost the same as seeing his own sister, except that Jian Er is a little old-fashioned, and basically doesn't do such coquettish and obedient things, and suddenly felt quite irresistible: "Okay."

After thinking about it, she added: "Okay, no problem. It's just that there is still a stage for this martial art, but it can be completed in about ten days. The main purpose is to re-train the sensitivity and softness of flesh and blood. Wait until then May I?"

Ji Dingxiang said happily: "No problem, no problem!! I can go and see the tasks over there first, and you can choose what we can do!"

Jian Baisan couldn't help jumping up in his heart.If it wasn't for Ji Dingxiang, she wouldn't know about this channel to get points.The old man asked her to practice martial arts, but he didn't say that she would not be allowed to pay back the points.
