Ye Wu's expression stiffened for a moment.
Fire Nether quickly said, "It might be because my level isn't high enough."
Ye Wu raised an eyebrow, "No need to be so polite, just say it straight."
Fire Nether hesitated for a moment, "Really say it straight?"
Ye Wu was straightforward, "Of course."
Fire Nether hesitated again; he should hold back, but Ye Wu's whip technique...
Fire Nether couldn't help but say, "Firstly, your whip technique lacks strength; you can't even do the basic whip swings properly. Secondly, your lower stance is unstable, making it easy for others to grab your whip and counter you. Moreover, there are flaws everywhere in your techniques. I took one look and found 108 flaws. For instance..."
Fire Nether completely got into the zone, speaking tirelessly.
Half an hour later.
He stopped reluctantly.
Fire Nether looked up and saw Ye Wu's serious expression, and his own expression stiffened.
It's over.
His death is imminent!
"Are you done?" Ye Wu asked.
Fire Nether's body stiffened, "I-I am done. That's not what I meant, actually..."
Ye Wu sighed and took out the Sound Recording Stone on her palm, "I've recorded everything you said; I'll need to listen to it a few more times. Now, teach me the basics."
Ye Wu seriously picked up the whip, "Please teach me."
She slightly bowed towards Fire Nether.
A flash of shock appeared in Fire Nether's eyes.
Ye Wu...
What is she doing?
Is she bowing to him?
Not only isn't she angry, but she is humbly asking him to teach her?
Thud!
The sound of something dropping transmitted over.
Ye Wu turned her head and saw Hu Jiuling's pen drop to the ground.
Hu Jiuling hurriedly picked up the pen, waving it around messily.
A big glint of doubt flashed in his big eyes.
Is Ye Wu... really different from before?
"Fire Nether's affection +5!"
"Hu Jiuling's affection +5!"
The system got a bit excited, "Host, your progress is impressive."
"Keep it low profile, don't make a fuss." Ye Wu responded in her mind, then continued to look at Fire Nether, "I'm willing to start learning from the basics. If you're worried this will affect your KPI assessment, I'll give you a performance bonus."
Fire Nether's expression was complicated.
Ye Wu was speaking nonsense again.
He didn't understand what KPI performance was, but he couldn't defy Ye Wu's orders originally, and furthermore, she seemed to have a very good attitude.
"Alright, I'll teach you." Fire Nether nodded.
"Don't spare me. Be as strict as possible." Ye Wu instructed.
A flash of determination appeared in her eyes.
In the modern world, she was able to go from a penniless orphan to the founder of a billion-dollar company.
Here, she could also go from a worthless second generation cultivator to the true pinnacle.
She had said it.
Whatever Ye Wu does, she must do it the best!
"Then let's start with basic techniques. Don't use Spiritual Power, learn the basics first." Fire Nether said slowly, "The first step is to swing the whip. Swing the whip against this tree. The day you can break the tree without using Spiritual Power, you can move on to the next step."
Ye Wu nodded and earnestly began practicing.
She swung the whip again and again, the Purple Vine Whip hitting the trunk, green leaves falling.
"Lower your wrist by three inches."
"Stop for a moment. Don't blindly use wrist strength, add waist strength."
"The force application is incorrect."
Fire Nether pointed out each detail.
Several times, he worried Ye Wu would suddenly lose her temper.
But.
Ye Wu just kept swinging the whip, her spirit resolute, as if nothing could stop her pursuit of the peak.
A strange flash crossed Fire Nether's eyes.
"Fire Nether's affection +5! Host, you..." the system excitedly chimed again.
Sweat dripped from Ye Wu's forehead, she coldly said, "Can't you see I'm busy? Shut up first!"
Don't disturb her as she grows stronger!
System: "..."
Whimpering.
It had never encountered a host like this, she's too fierce!
But it could only temporarily keep quiet.
"Your palm. It's bleeding." Fire Nether suddenly said.
Ye Wu nonchalantly glanced at her palm, casually using Spiritual Power to heal the wound, then said, "Let's continue."
Fire Nether paused, "Alright."
The two of them, one teaching, one practicing, continued from dawn till dusk.
Ye Wu still wasn't satisfied; she was about to keep training.
An arrogant voice sounded.
"Where is Fellow Cultivator Ye?"
This person even used Spiritual Power, his voice reaching far.
Ye Wu's face immediately darkened.
Who!
Which bastard dares to be so arrogant in her abode!
Doesn't respect her as a second generation cultivator?
"Which damn dog is bragging!" Ye Wu swung her whip, "Come on, I'll deal with it first."
Fire Nether's expression was complicated; he couldn't help but remind her, "This is Ling Jue's junior brother: Bai You."
Several question marks appeared on Ye Wu's forehead!
What nonsense is this!
Ling Jue's junior brother? Isn't he just a regular cultivator, and he dares to act out at a second generation cultivator's dwelling?
His skin must be itching!
Ye Wu walked over with a sullen face.
"Where's Ye Wu? You lot aren't worthy of speaking to me." Bai You arrogantly looked at the men, "Good cultivators, willingly becoming furnaces for others. Simply the waste among wastes!"
At the entrance.
Several people's expressions changed.
Only Qingxuan still wore a faint smile, "So you're looking for trouble today?"
"Trouble? I'm here to deliver a message for Ling Jue Senior Brother! If you know what's good, you'd better immediately inform her, I..."
Bai You's words weren't finished.
Suddenly.
A spear fell fiercely at his feet!
Bai You jumped aside instantly, looked on in anger.
Then.
He saw Ye Wu looking displeased.
"What's wrong?" Ye Wu angrily looked at Fire Nether.
Fire Nether stiffly didn't dare speak.
Bai You chuckled, "No need for Fellow Cultivator Ye to get angry, your furnace lacks manners, a slight chastisement will suffice."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Wu said sternly, "Didn't I tell you to stab his heart! Is your spear technique that inaccurate?"
Fire Nether: "..."
Bai You was stunned, "Fellow Cultivator Ye! I'm Bai You, Ling Jue's junior brother."
Ye Wu turned to look at him, her voice cold, "And? Are you planning to settle Ling Jue's debt?"
Settle what debt?
Bai You paused, hurriedly said, "Fellow Cultivator Ye, I'm here to remind you. Senior Brother has been in a bad mood these past few days."
Ling Jue, the aloof male lead cultivating Heartless Dao, intended to string along the female sidekick, but some words he couldn't say himself.
Thus.
People like Bai You became his mouthpiece.
This kind of message relay job, Bai You and his kind were happy to take.
After all.
Ye Wu was naïve and wealthy, and even message relayers would receive favors from her.
This time, he had beaten several senior brothers to get the opportunity to relay this message!
