Just Wanting to Live a Good Life, but Surpassing the Protagonist – 31 Provocation Incident

Wu Xue was in seclusion in her room. Although she said she was in seclusion, she still ate three meals a day. When she had time, she would help Ye Yong dry his quilt and wash the clothes that had been at the bottom of his trunk for a long time. Despite all this, she had already stepped into the Qi Condensation Stage.

The Qi Condensation Stage did not mean cultivating immortality. Martial artists also had the Qi Condensation Stage. There was no difference between the two, except that the vast majority of martial artists were unable to break through the Qi Condensation Stage because the requirements for martial cultivation were even more stringent than for immortal cultivation. As long as a martial artist could break through the Qi Condensation Stage and continue on the path of martial cultivation, they would be able to enter the Flesh Forging Stage.

The Flesh Forging Stage was a bit like the Foundation Establishment Stage. It was a stage to lay the foundation and strengthen the body.

When Wu Xue entered the Flesh Forging Stage in the future, she would not become as strong as a man. Instead, her figure would become more slender and well-proportioned, without a trace of excess flesh. However, her breasts would also grow slightly less. But one thing was for sure: her physical strength would increase greatly, and she would be able to withstand the attacks of ordinary martial artists without being injured.

After the Flesh Forging Stage was the Bone Forging Stage. It was not enough for just the flesh to be strong. The bones had to be strong as well. Only a sufficiently strong body and bones could withstand the recoil of releasing sharp qi. Otherwise, any martial technique would cause a fracture, and there would be no point in fighting.

After the Bone Forging Stage was the Viscera Forging Stage. As the name suggests, the internal organs also needed to be tempered. After completion, one’s lifespan would be greatly extended, and one would be able to fast for a short period of time.

After that was the Meridian Forging Stage. There were many meridians in the human body. The more meridians that could be used, the stronger the qi that could be used.

Wu Xue possessed the Five Veins Divine Body, so martial cultivation was not difficult for her. What she needed was time to grow.

“Phew~” After taking the super spirit gathering pill that Ye Yong had given her earlier, Wu Xue reached Qi Condensation Level 2.

It took her seven days to reach Qi Condensation Level 2. Although it was not as fast as Ye Yong’s five days to Level 2, it was still an astonishing speed, proving her talent and the strength of her divine body.

“I wonder when Young Master Ye will come out of seclusion.”

These past few days, Wu Xue had been standing in front of the seclusion room whenever she wasn’t cultivating. Although she couldn’t see Ye Yong, it didn’t stop her from fantasizing. In the novel, Wu Xue was very strong and independent, but after arriving here, she had not experienced many hardships. Instead, she had been spoiled by Ye Yong and had fallen in love for the first time. Naturally, she had less of the independent and self-reliant personality of the novel and more of the gentleness of a young girl.

Just as Wuxue was about to visit Ye Yong in the meditation room, she suddenly heard a voice outside.

“Young Master!” Wuxue was so excited that she rushed out and saw Ye Mao and a few of his lackeys in the living room.

“Where’s Ye Yong?” Ye Mao had refined the spirit grass and obtained ten perfect Spirit Gathering Pills from his father, along with the blood of the Crystal Man Serpent, and had made successive breakthroughs. Now, he was already a man at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm! The first thing he did after reaching the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm was to come and show off to Ye Yong.

At first, he had planned to make Qin Shimeng change her opinion of him, but now that Qin Shimeng was already at the tenth level of the Foundation Establishment realm, unless he had a fortuitous encounter, there was no way he could catch up to her . Even so, Ye Mao was a genius who had reached the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm at the age of 20, and his foundation was solid.

“Young Master is currently in seclusion.” Wuxue was still quite timid in front of outsiders and immediately shrank his neck.

“You’re quite fair-skinned and tender. It seems that after changing Ye Yong’s maid, he’s no longer willing to hit her. Or is it because he’s become a cripple and doesn’t have the strength to hit her anymore?” Ye Mao was similar to ‘Ye Yong’ and was very arrogant deep down. He looked down on Wuxue, who had no status or identity, even though she was very cute. In his eyes, she was just a useless mortal.

The lackeys were of a lower status and didn’t dare to do anything to Wuxue, after all, she was Ye Yong’s maid.

As for why Ye Mao held such a grudge against Ye Yong, it was mainly because the day he brought the body of the Man Serpent, he wanted to show off, but Ye Yong had scared his subordinates into telling the truth, causing his attempt to fail.

Not to mention that Ye Yong’s mother, Lin Wei, was currently in seclusion, and Ye Mao himself had already broken through to the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm, earning the appreciation of many elders. Tomorrow was the day of the Heavenly Luo Sect’s assessment, and he would definitely become a first-rate disciple. The era of Ye Mao was about to arrive!

Ye Yong had humiliated him in public, so how could he not seek revenge?

“Young Master is not a waste!” Hearing Ye Mao badmouthing her young master, Wuxue’s attitude became unusually tough.

“Without cultivation, how can he not be a useless person?”

Wuxue still wanted to say something when a handsome man wearing a white robe and holding a folding fan walked out of the house. He frowned when he saw Ye Mao. “I thought what was causing such a commotion, and it’s you, the extra?” “

“Extra? What do you mean?” Although Ye Mao didn’t understand, he felt that it was a derogatory term.

“That’s what you are. What are you doing at my place?” No matter how Ye Yong looked at it, he felt that the other party was the kind of extra who made things difficult for the protagonist. The problem was that Ye Yong wasn’t ‘t the protagonist, so what was he doing here?

“There’s nothing else. I just broke through to the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm.” As he spoke, Ye Mao puffed out his chest.

“Oh, congratulations.”

Ye Mao was furious. I’ve improved, shouldn’t you be envious? Aren’t you a useless person?

“Don’t you want to say anything else?”

“Would you like a cup of tea?” Ye Yong found Ye Mao very strange and didn’t understand what he meant.

“Who wants you to offer me tea! Weren’t you at the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment realm before? I came here today to ask you about the difference between the sixth and seventh levels of the Foundation Establishment realm.” When he said “ask for advice,” Ye Mao emphasized his tone.

“Hmm?” Ye Yong was stunned. Was this a provocation? He wasn’t sure.

“How do you want to ask for advice?”

“Just stand there and let me throw a punch so you can feel the difference in my fist wind.” Ye Mao didn’t dare to be too ruthless to Ye Yong. At most, he would punch him twice and give that handsome face of his a pair of panda eyes.

“Alright!” Ye Yong immediately became excited. Although it was a small provocation, it was still something exclusive to the protagonist! As the villain, if he missed this opportunity, there might not be another one. He couldn’t let it slip away. “Just feeling the fist wind might not allow you to distinguish between the sixth and seventh levels. I suggest we exchange blows directly.”

Hearing this, Ye Mao was stunned for a moment before revealing a smile.

Is there such a good thing?

I don’t dare to hit you too hard, but you’re asking to be beaten up. Don’t blame me for this.

“Fists and feet have no eyes. Are you sure?” However, Ye Mao quickly put away his smile and put on an inappropriate expression.

“Of course I’m sure. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely let you understand the difference.” Ye Yong had long wanted to experience what it was like to show off and humiliate someone. Although he still didn’t know Ye Mao’s name or that he was his cousin, even if he did, he wouldn’t care because Ye Mao was just an extra who would give the protagonist a free gift. “Let’s go outside. If we fight here, we might damage the tables and chairs.”

“Alright. Since you’re so eager, I, as your cousin, will definitely satisfy you.”

A group of people came outside. Wuxue stood under the eaves. She wasn’t worried about Ye Yong. When Ye Yong revealed his cultivation to Lin Wei, she was by his side. Although she wasn’t cultivating at the time and couldn’ t see his cultivation level, she had heard Lin Wei mention that Ye Yong was at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm.

So many days had passed, so Young Master must have reached the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment realm, right?

“I’ll only use one-tenth of my strength.” Standing face to face with Ye Yong, Ye Mao thought that one-tenth of his strength should be enough to break Ye Yong’s hand, teaching this arrogant cousin a lesson and preventing him from being beaten to death outside because he was so arrogant.

“Don’t. Don’t use one-tenth of your strength.”

“Too much? How about half of one-tenth?”

“No, I mean, I want you to use all your strength.” Ye Yong had a very serious expression.
