Li Xiong Tu spoke a single sentence and quietly waited for the visitor's response.
But in the swirling snowflakes, the surroundings were silent, and there was not a single abnormality.
The girl in white hurriedly rushed out, "Young Master, what are you saying?"
Li Xiong Tu's expression became serious, "A master is coming, stand behind me."
The girl in white looked tense on her face, but instead of standing behind Li Xiong Tu, she said, "Since Young Master has a distinguished guest, I will go make tea."
Turning around, she walked back gracefully.
Although her body trembled a bit, she remained calm.
If the master was a friend, she couldn't embarrass her beloved, so making tea was necessary. If it was an enemy, standing behind Li Xiong Tu would only hinder him. It might be that because of her presence, Li Xiong Tu would be put at a disadvantage.
So she decisively left.
If the enemy plotted against her while she was gone, then Li Xiong Tu could seize the opportunity, see the enemy clearly, and deal a fatal blow!
Watching this delicate figure walk into the room, Chu Yang couldn't help but admire her in his heart and chuckled hoarsely, "What a beautiful girl with a refined disposition, Li Xiong Tu, you are quite fortunate."
Li Xiong Tu smiled faintly, knowing that the visitor was a master, and no longer pried, he said generously, "I appreciate your praise, but I ask you to come out for a chat."
"No need for a chat," Chu Yang said lightly, "I only want to know, do you realize that forcing your cultivation like this, injuring your foundation, is nearing the point of oil running out and the lamp going out?"
Li Xiong Tu fell silent for a moment and then replied, "I just want to reach supreme! To battle my sworn enemy and settle old scores, I seek nothing else. After that, it won't be too late to recover."
Chu Yang gently said, "But by that time, it will already be too late."
Li Xiong Tu's gaze flickered, "Who are you? You seem to know a lot about my matters?"
Chu Yang laughed, "I just want to tell you, the opponent you value most, their current cultivation level far exceeds yours! It's nearly at the supreme cultivation level!"
Li Xiong Tu remained unmoved and replied coolly, "So what? One day, I will catch up to him!"
Chu Yang said, "But your current physical condition does not allow it."
Li Xiong Tu chuckled, "What if it doesn't allow it? What if it does? I only acknowledge my opponent; why should I care if others acknowledge me or not!"
Chu Yang laughed heartily, "Indeed, with a good mood, I cannot speak lightly. I can help you recover."
Li Xiong Tu rolled his eyes and said, "I don't need your help. I certainly don't need anyone's pity!"
Chu Yang chuckled, "Li Xiong Tu, here it comes!"
Immediately, a black bag flew over with a rustling sound.
Li Xiong Tu's eyes flashed as he caught it in his hands. He heard the sound of water swishing inside and curiously asked, "What is this?"
Chu Yang replied indifferently, "Inside is the Spring of Spirits! A cup in the morning and another in the evening, for a month, it can replenish your body’s deficiencies. You’d best store it in an Amethyst container, otherwise, if the effect runs out, it will be gone forever."
After saying that, Chu Yang's figure flickered and disappeared without a trace in the vast snow.
"Spring of Spirits!" Li Xiong Tu's body shook as he shouted, "Who the hell are you?!" This question was different from before; it was shouted out loudly, shaking the surroundings.
Yet, the surroundings remained silent, and no one answered.
Li Xiong Tu stood up tall and quickly circled the wall, shouting, "Who are you? Why did you give me this thing?"
Still, no one replied.
But the commotion had already attracted the attention of the high-ranking members of the Li family.
As one of the "one of the nine calamities," Li Xiong Tu was of special interest to the Li family.
Figures flashed, and several supreme beings of the Li family appeared in the courtyard. Before they could speak, Li Wubo also appeared, followed by a long howl from afar as Li Tongtian's voice echoed, "What happened?"
