This Lin Ruoxi is not only exceptionally beautiful, but her talent is also extraordinary.
She possesses a Fifth-Grade Variant Ice Spiritual Root; if nothing unexpected happens, she is expected to reach Soul Transformation!
Furthermore, although the Ice Spiritual Root is a variation of the Water Spiritual Root, there is a significant difference between them.
Water-attribute Cultivation Techniques are generally more gentle, emphasizing overcoming hardness with softness, whereas the Ice Spiritual Root focuses on killing and boasts powerful attack capabilities.
This also leads to Lin Ruoxi being almost invincible among those at the same stage!
Of course, it's mainly because Qing Shi City is too small and lacks true Prodigies, which highlights Lin Ruoxi's strength.
Lin Ruoxi once even declared that for someone to become her husband, they must defeat her in a battle at the same cultivation stage, provided their ages are not too far apart.
This matter even alarmed the Qinglin Sect, and many of their direct disciples came down the mountain to challenge Lin Ruoxi, but unfortunately, they all returned in defeat.
Even the original owner, a seasoned shut-in, knew about this, which shows how widely it spread.
Now, several years have passed, and Lin Ruoxi, utilizing the resources the Lin Family obtained from the Yang Family, has already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage at only thirty-four years old, becoming the strongest in the Lin Family besides the Old Ancestor.
Even the Family Head, Lin Zhengjie, who is also at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, is not her match.
To cultivate Lin Ruoxi's image as Qing Shi City's number one beauty and number one Genius, the Lin Family spared no expense in showering her with resources.
It is also thanks to Lin Ruoxi's reputation that the Lin Family has been able to develop so rapidly in recent years.
After all, no matter where, the phenomenon of idol worship is unavoidable; these people frequent the Lin Family's shops daily just to catch a glimpse of Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi only needs to periodically inspect the various shops of the Lin Family; she doesn't even need to speak, and those people, just to win a smile from the beauty, will quickly buy out the shop's inventory.
One can only say that the power of an idol is immense; in any case, Yang Xiu cannot comprehend such behavior.
Lin Ruoxi noticed Yang Xiu's gaze fixed on her and frowned in disgust, glaring at Yang Xiu.
However, Yang Xiu's handsome and masculine face, tall and slender physique, and his refined and ethereal demeanor made her momentarily stunned.
She then looked at Lin Qingning in confusion, only to find that she too was frozen in place.
Lin Qingning was indeed stunned, or more accurately, astonished.
They had just met yesterday, and yesterday he was still a decadent shut-in; how did he transform into a dashing Young Master today?
Lin Ruoxi was very puzzled in her heart, "Is this the good-for-nothing Yang Xiu my niece spoke of?"
Putting aside his talent, just based on his appearance, marrying him wouldn't be a loss!
Waking up every day to a peerless face, how pleasing to the eye! Just thinking about it makes one feel delighted.
It's just that Yang Xiu is young and has poor talent; if only he could reach the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, as long as he came to challenge her, she would definitely go easy on him.
The two people at the main table were already so shocked by Yang Xiu that their mouths hung open, and their Divine Sense were furiously communicating.
"Eh? Brother Chang, what kind of Opportunity do you think Yang Xiu had? He was still at Qi Refining Fourth Level when we met not long ago, but now he's at Qi Refining Ninth Level. This is too outrageous!"
Yang Tianchang was also very puzzled: "I don't know! I've been around for hundreds of years, and I've never heard of any Opportunity or encounter that could allow someone to improve so much in half an hour.
Moreover, his Foundation is extremely solid, much more solid than mine was back then; it doesn't seem like it was forcibly raised in a short time at all!"
The two exchanged thoughts for a long time but couldn't reach a conclusion; eventually, Su Xueying even brought up the idea of Immortal Reincarnation.
Beside them, Yang Xiu took out Lin Qingning's marriage contract and directly threw it to Lin Qingning.
"I'm returning your marriage contract. The ten thousand Spirit Stones you owed me, your mother already gave them to me yesterday, and the betrothal gifts sent back yesterday have been checked and are fine.
As for the resources your Lin Family owes, I've decided to discount them for seventy thousand Spirit Stones. As for the interest, I've also waived it for you.
Return the seventy thousand Spirit Stones within one year, and then we'll all live in peace. If you can't return them within one year, your Lin Family will have to pay with a life for every Spirit Stone short!
Also, tell your father, that coward, to take some responsibility. He doesn't even dare to come to the door for such an important matter as breaking off an engagement, instead sending his wife or his sister. What a good-for-nothing!"
Yang Xiu said disdainfully, then immediately had someone see them out. Although Qing Shi City's number one beauty was opposite him, he didn't have time to admire her now.
We Cultivators must strive for self-improvement. The Dao is like sailing against the current; if you don't cultivate, you regress. Cultivation makes me happy, and cultivation seeks longevity.
As for how you cultivate, don't worry about it; as long as your cultivation can advance, that's enough!
When Yang Xiu came over earlier, he had already sent someone to the Lin Family to send a message to Li Yunshang, inviting her to come over.
Although he didn't state the purpose of her visit, both of them understood perfectly well.
Li Yunshang didn't know what she was thinking, but upon hearing Yang Xiu call her over, she felt no resistance at all, only anticipation.
After all, as a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivator, she had rested for most of the day and consumed several Medicinal Pills to restore her stamina. At this moment, apart from some lingering physical weakness, she had no other issues.
Moreover, after learning that Lin Qingning and Lin Ruoxi were also at the Li Family, to avoid meeting them, she directly flew into Yang Xiu's courtyard.
The events of yesterday naturally couldn't be hidden from Yang Tianchang and Su Xueying. They already knew about Yang Xiu and Li Yunshang's situation, and at this moment, they didn't expose it, allowing her to enter Yang Xiu's room.
After Yang Xiu left, he went straight back to his room and found Li Yunshang already waiting inside.
...............
Another exhilarating battle ensued...
