Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 317: Anxious Fang Yu

Chapter 317: Anxious Fang Yu

Returning back to his pavilion, Xuan Hao checked in on Bai Ning and Zhi Ruo. Only to find out that Bai Ning had already gone to sleep for the night, while Zhi Ruo was still awake in her room.

Sensing the presence of the two of them, Xuan Hao did not go and wake up Bai Ning or disturbed Zhi Ruo and instead just walked back to the spot outside his pavilion that he had cultivated the day before.

"I really wonder if I will advance as quickly as last night…"

Feeling both curious and excited upon thinking about how far he had managed to progress in only a single night, Xuan Hao decided to with redeeming his quest reward and see if he could breakthrough to the third stage of the Domain Lord Realm on his own.

After all, he would really feel like he wasted the opportunity given by the system to breakthrough if he could do it by himself… Rather wait one day and see if he could reach the third stage of the Domain Lord Realm by himself, than use the chance given by the system!

With this in mind, Xuan Hao slowly sat down outside and began cultivating with the moon above shinning down on him from above as the night slowly passed quietly. The Flying Sword Sect having already begun to quiet down, as most of the disciples and elders returned to their own quarters to cultivate or sleep…

Though most of the elders were most likely still out and about in the Flying Sword City…

…

"Hm? Nothing…?" Standing up as he watched the sun slowly rise over the mountains surrounding the Flying Sword Sect in the distance, Xuan Hao could not help but feel a bit disappointed as he felt no real improvement to his cultivation like he had yesterday.

"Maybe it had to do with something else… Like the moon or stars…?"

Muttering this to himself as he began thinking about what might have been the cause for his sudden increase in cultivation speed, Xuan Hao could not wait to go and find out if that night was special in some way…

Standing up from his spot overlooking the main part of the Flying Sword Sect below him, Xuan Hao suddenly sensed someone moving up his mountain and towards his pavilion.

"Fang Yu?"

Immediately recognizing the person moving up his mountain so early in the morning, Xuan Hao quickly remembered that he had indeed told her to come up and meet him in front of his pavilion at dawn the next day.

Whoosh~

Deciding to not stand around, Xuan Hao directly made his way over towards the entrance of his pavilion. Arriving a little earlier than Fang Yu as he watched her run up the last part of the way up the mountain without even showing the slightest sign of exhaustion.

"I see that you made it on time!" The sun had barely risen, and Xuan Hao had honestly not expected for her to show up the moment that the sun appeared.

Looking over at the fully awake Fang Yu standing in front of him full of energy, Xuan Hao could not help but nod approvingly towards her. No matter what, she was definitely showing off her determination to enter the Formation Hall for all to see…

Even Xuan Hao could not help but feel a bit more determined to help her get through the entrance test for the Formation Hall and officially enter…

…

A few hours earlier when the sun had still yet to rise, Fang Yu was anxiously pacing back and forth inside of a small courtyard as she kept looking over towards the east where the sun would rise.

Waiting for the first rays of light to appear over the tall mountains surrounding the Flying Sword Sect before she would make her way over towards Xuan Hao's pavilion.

"Fang Yu… Are you still awake at this time? Didn't I tell you to get some sleep and be fully rested for when you meet Elder Xuan later today...? Even if you have reached the Foundation Establishment Realm and can go a few days without sleep, you still have to rest your head!"

"Grandma…"

Calling out pitifully as she dashed over towards the person who had just entered her courtyard, Fang Yu did not hold back in the slightest as she hugged her tightly. Fully displaying how nervous and anxious she was to the old lady.

"Eh? Not so against hugging me now?" Smiling upon seeing Fang Yu act all spoilt with her as she tried her best to hold back her laughter, Fang Yu's Grandma hugged her in return as she waited for a few minutes until she calmed down.

"Grandma… D-do you really think that Elder Xuan can help me…?" Turning to look up at the old lady after calming down, Fang Yu could not hold herself back. Asking the question that had been stuck in her mind ever since Xuan Hao had told her that he would help solve her problem and help her clear the entrance test for the Formation Hall.

No matter what, she had been stuck at the same formation for over two years at this point in time. Even if Xuan Hao was a Core Elder, she still felt doubtful as to whether he could really help her master the formation she had struggled with…

"Haha, you are worrying about this child? You have to remember that a Core Elder is someone in the Nascent Soul Realm! And there are even some rumours floating around among the elders that Elder Xuan reached the Domain Lord Realm above the Nascent Soul Realm! So, I don't think you have to worry so much about it…"

Chuckling a bit upon hearing what Fang Yu worried about, the old lady quickly reassured her.

"Domain Lord Realm…?"

Not knowing much about what realm came after the Nascent Soul Realm, Fang Yu felt a bit reassured after knowing how strong his cultivation was… At least he should be quite skilled when it came to formations, he had after all come to visit the Formation Hall and had even recommend a really good book to her…

Thinking about all of this, Fang Yu slowly grew more confident in Xuan Hao and felt that he might really be able to help her complete the Formation Hall's entrance test once and for all!

"Thank you, grandma! I will get some sleep before the sun rises!"

"Sure~ I will wake you up in time, so you don't have to worry about it!"

Seeing Fang Yu rush back into her room to get some much-needed sleep, the old lady smiled happily as she sat down in the Fang Yu's courtyard and began cultivating.

There were still a few hours until the sun rose, and she would have to spend that time on something…
