"Why doesn't this book have any cultivation knowledge?"

"What is this book exactly?" Fen Lian asked herself.

During the past twenty minutes or so, she didn't see any theories about cultivation, only a collection of the same moves she had learned before. It made Fen Lian feel bored with the book in front of her.

The thick book with old Roman writing inside managed to irritate her because she was very curious to see what was inside. But once he had seen it, it turned out that the big book only contained the moves he had learned.

"Never mind, I'm already lazy with this book. I'd better look for another book and see if I can find one about cultivation; it'll give me more knowledge about cultivation," Fen Lian said.

After that, she got up from her seat and looked for a few more books on cultivation. Fen Lian looked for the book on the shelf that contained a bunch of books about cultivation. It was easy to find books because her father had placed them according to their titles and types. In addition, each shelf had its own name, so it was easy for anyone who searched to find what they were looking for.

Fen Lian's fingers sorted through the books she was aiming for; a row of cultivation-type books was already in front of her eyes. But until now, Fen Lian was still confused about which book to take so that she could study it later.

"There are so many books on cultivation, but I have no idea which ones are worthy of my time," she muttered as she sorted through the books.

Until right in front of Fen Lian's eyes, she saw a large, thick book with a worn blue cover. Somehow, Fen Lian's confusion disappeared instantly when she saw the book in front of her. Without hesitation, Fen Lian grabbed the book and brought it back to the reading bench beside the shelf. She juxtaposed the big book with the dictionary she had previously picked up.

The cultivation book was still the same as the previous one; the writing used on the book was ancient Roman. Perhaps all the books in this room could have contained ancient Roman writing, just like his father, who was an ancient person. It was obvious that the book he was holding must have ancient Roman characters.

Fen Lian had only been reading the cultivation book for a few minutes. Suddenly, the door opened, causing a loud noise. Fen Lian was startled and closed the book in front of her.

"Fen Lian!"

"Uncle!"

It was her uncle. Fen Lian immediately got up from her seat and looked at her uncle in fear. Moreover, this uncle now had the same fierce face as when he left her in the front yard earlier.

"What are you doing here? You're here instead of practicing seriously," the uncle said sternly.

"I'm reading a book, uncle; who knows if it can increase my knowledge so that I can cultivate it?" Fen Lian explained.

Uncle's gaze immediately fell on the book on the table. Unceremoniously, he brushed the large book on the table aside.

"You don't need a book; it's useless to read a book if you don't practice. I've prepared a teacher for you to practice with; now I need you to get dressed and practice!" He ordered.

Hearing this, Fen Lian immediately frowned. "Teacher? What did you get a teacher for? I don't need a teacher because I already have one!" Fen Lian replied firmly.

The teacher smiled sarcastically at this statement. "What did you say? No need for a teacher? How arrogant of you!"

"If you don't need a teacher, you should have passed your cultivation, so why didn't you make it? That means your teacher is incompetent at educating you!" Uncle said sternly:

Hearing her uncle belittle her teacher, Fen Lian instantly felt angry with her uncle. She did not accept that her teacher had insulted her like this.

"Watch what you say, uncle! I will never change teachers; after all, you've taught me well. It's just that fate hasn't favored me yet because my intentions might still be wrong!" Fen Lian replied.

"What wrong intentions? What intentions do you have?"

"I should be like a father, wanting to become a warrior because I intend to help others. Not using our knowledge to serve the king and earn a decent living. We should be serving God, the owner of everything, who is clearly capable of providing a decent living!"

The uncle clenched his hands into fists as he glared at his nephew with emotion. "Watch what you say! Do what you're told and don't talk too much!"

"One more thing: you must be a warrior to enter the kingdom! No exceptions!" He replied firmly.

Fen Lian smiled wryly at her uncle's words. "I don't care; I won't obey Uncle's words no matter what."

"What do you mean, Fen Lian?"

"I'd rather not become a warrior than become a warrior, but only to serve humans; I don't want to!" Fen Lian replied firmly.

"WATCH WHAT YOU SAY!"

"What? What do you want? Hit me again? Please, I'm not afraid!"

"WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE, FEN LIAN!"

PLAK.

Fen Lian smiled as she held the corner of her lip that was bleeding from her uncle's rough treatment. After that, Fen Lian stared sarcastically at her uncle without any fear at all.

"Remember, uncle, I will never serve the king because they will not be able to give me a peaceful life forever. Indeed, they dare to give us everything, but they will also treat us as they wish. Maybe life is worthy only for uncles, not for me, who struggles to continue to serve them!" Fen Lian replied.

The uncle clenched both his hands very tightly. He had to be able to make Fen Lian obey him and do what he told her to do, including serve the king. One of the family's only hopes was for Fen Lian to be the youngest and able to learn martial arts.

"Uncle doesn't want to know that right now you have to train or he won't consider you a nephew anymore!" Threatened uncle.

Fen Lian wasn't afraid of the threat; instead, she felt challenged by her uncle's words.

"I'm not afraid of anyone. I don't care if you don't consider me a nephew," she replied.

"You dare with Uncle?"

"Yes! I'm not afraid of anyone, including my uncle! As long as the path I'm taking is the right one, why would I be afraid? I'd rather leave here than be depressed mentally and physically!" Fen Lian spoke confidently.

After saying that, Fen Lian immediately looked down and grabbed the books that had fallen on the ground, then carried them outside, leaving the uncle, who was still frozen in place, staring at Fen Lian's departure.

"Fen Lian! Stop!"

She heard the shout, but Fen Lian chose to ignore her uncle's shout and continued on her way.

    Limau Lake"Fen Lian, try going to the village to take part in the cultivation selection again; who knows if you can do it with someone else?""What's the difference between being tested by an uncle and someone else?" Fen Lian asked the teacher who had been guiding her."Come on, Fen Lian, there's no harm if you try. All warriors have their own ways, including uncles. Uncle doesn't mind if you join anyone's cultivation as long as you can become the kind of cultivator your uncle wants you to be," said the teacher uncle, begging Fen Lian to keep joining the cultivation selection.Fen Lian sighed softly when she heard her teacher's uncle's persuasion. She had never once intended to turn her back on her teacher, not even once. After all, Uncle Zhang, or as she called him, Teacher Uncle, was a warrior who was in the same school as her father. So Fen Lian insisted on being loyal to the teacher; all of this she did because she wanted to learn her father's knowledge even through other people.

    The next day, Fen Lian came to a village with her teacher. There were many ordinary people and warriors gathered in the Kaojin village's meeting hall. The arrival of the greatest cultivator was something that attracted people's attention, so many locals came just to witness this event. The village of Kaojin had never been visited by cultivators at all, and this was the first time. It's not that they don't want to come to this town; it's just that there are very few talented children in this town. There were four cultivation prodigies who were already in the fourth stage of bone forging.This child is still ten years older than Fen Lian. These four children were already famous throughout the martial world because, at such a young age, they were able to cultivate well, while the twenty-year-old Fen Lian had yet to successfully cultivate. On this occasion, the four children were also present here as an example for all of them, so that they could create interest among the local people to

Fen Lian, who had been standing still while staring straight ahead, was secretly thinking of a thousand ways to pass the cultivation test after never succeeding for so long. Moreover, seeing this closed room like a sea of people made his concentration even worse. What he remembered often changed; sometimes he remembered, sometimes he didn't remember. It made him feel even more scared.One by one, the participants were called to take the cultivation test. Fen Lian couldn't stop staring at those who were doing the test intently, as a picture for herself later when doing the test. But in reality, each sect

    After being declared a cultivation failure, Fen Lian left the place feeling whipped. For the umpteenth time, she had to fail again in cultivation. Fen Lian had already promised herself that after failing, she would not want to cultivate again. Because it would be a waste of time, it would be useless to try again with the same result of failure. Fen Lian walked helplessly, her mind blank, only sadness consuming her. Until a few seconds later, she was already quite far from the place when suddenly a small child approached her. It was Xiao, the little boy she knew at that place.The little boy walked hand in hand with Fen Lian because Xiao was so small, to the point that Fen Lian was unaware of Xiao's presence beside her. Similarly, Xiao, who felt that she was being ignored, immediately raised her voice."Hey! Adults can't be sad!" Xiao said suddenlyHearing that, Fen Lian suddenly snapped out of her reverie. She turned her head and looked down to see where Xiao was standing next to her.

They were like enemies when they met, even though they had previously worked together to study together when they first entered the sect.

    In the evening, Fen Lian and Zhang were taken by A Xiu's grandfather to a place where A Xiu used to practice with his students. This place is not far from the temple; a hall is in the middle of an artificial lake, so this place is very comfortable if used for just relaxing or practicing. A Xiu told her about some places in the temple so that later Fen Lian wouldn't be surprised if she asked to go somewhere in the temple. Although the appearance from the front looks small and worn out, who would have thought that once we got inside the temple, we would be surprised by buildings with ancient royal architecture?"Fen Lian, for the next few days we will be practicing in this place. See how comfortable this place is for practicing breathing," A Xiu said.Fen Lian nodded. There was no denying that this place was indeed very comfortable. Even Fen Lian herself felt at home here."Zhang, do you remember this place?" A Xiu asked Zhang.The question made Zhang smile sweetly. "Obviously I remembe

Fen Lian was a little startled by the unfamiliarity of his presence. But a few seconds after she regained consciousness, she realized that she was indeed in the Four Seasons Village and not Jiangnan anymore. Fen Lian immediately got up from her bed and searched for her grandfather and uncle.However, Fen Lian didn't see either of them in front of her, so she chose to circle around the place to look for her uncle and grandfather. Here, it was a little difficult to find a place because it was Fen Lian's first time coming to this place, so she didn't know the places by heart.Until she reached the backyard of the temple, and it was true that her uncle and grandfather were in the backyard cleaning the area, Without further ado, Fen Lian approached the two of them."Morning uncle!

You take it easy; just focus on your activities there," he pleaded.Zhang also nodded his understanding, after which he said goodbye to Xui and asked him to return to his residence again. But before that, Zhang also said goodbye to Fen Lian. As a student and teacher, Fen Lian had always considered Zhang her parent; with this separation, she honestly felt a little sad from the bottom of her heart, but she held it in as much as possible. Because after all, this was all for her sake—to get what she should get as a warrior.Fen Lian briefly escorted Zhang to the front of the temple, bidding him farewell. After Zhang was out of sight, she went back inside the temple and met Xui, who was waiting for her in the courtyard of the martial arts training ground."Grandpa, what should I do

When her father had made this kind of cruel facial expression, she had already intended to say it again because she was afraid that the situation would get more complicated. Moreover, the father was already angry, surely when he replied it would be even more angry later. The father saw that his daughter was looking down and knew that she must be angry with him, so he d

    "What do you want to go there for?" Ling asked in surprise."Ekhem! To find my father," he replied in a low voice. However, Ling-ling could still hear him clearly because he was standing so close that even the slightest sound that Fengyin said could still be heard by her.Ling, who knew that this discussion seemed very sensitive because it was about her family, so she did not dare to dig deeper. She was only curious about Fengyin's plan to ask her to help come to the place."Is your father there? So if your parents are there why did you get lost in this village? Did you forget the way home?" Ling asked curiously.But Fengyin stepped away from Ling and stopped her steps right near the main door which was the link to reach Ling's private room. Fengyin stood by the window while crossing her arms in front of her chest, while looking straight ahead. Ling followed Fengyin and stood right next to Fengyin."Actually, I came here to accomplish a m

    "Ah yes, that's the potion I made for Noona Ling earlier," the doctor replied.Ling nodded at that. "That's right, but unfortunately Gengyin prevented me from drinking this potion. It really makes me feel very upset!" She said as she looked at Fengyin with an annoyed look.Fengyin, who heard her name mentioned, frowned. "What do you mean by saying that? Didn't I tell you that I deliberately forbade you because there was something wrong with the potion!"Ling smiled sarcastically at Fengyin while crossing her arms in front of her chest. "You're just a stranger who could have lied to me!" She replied arrogantly.The argument between the two nearly broke out, it managed to make uncle Dao Ming and uncle Zhang stare at each other. Just a few minutes ago they had stopped this fight, but now instead the two of them were arguing for the umpteenth time just because of the herb issue.

    Aul martial arts.Arriving at the martial arts field, they were greeted by students who were warming up by running around the field. Even though they hadn't been told to, they had such smart brains that without even having to be told, they warmed up first. It was all thanks to Uncle Dao Ming's teachings that they had been accustomed to practicing from an early age, and Fengyin was sure that Uncle Dao Ming had not easily taught them to be like they were today. In order to be fair, he also warmed up like all of them because later he also had to do a lot of martial arts activities so he was required to warm up first so that his limbs would not be injured. Everything he does must be for his own good, unlike the other students he only warms up on the spot, because there is no leg strength training that he does. Meanwhile, students must train their own leg muscles to avoid injury and shape their bodies to be much stronger in the future.The activity lasted for about ten minutes as the stude
