( One Week Later )

[ Holy Orchid Apprentice Fighters Class ]

At the back of the Class , Lu Piao , Nie Li and Du Zhe were discussing a problem that had encountered after the first few nights of hunting Demon Horned Sheep they made 3 hundred Demon Spirit Coins but now for some reason they couldn't find any Demon Beasts in the Holy Orchid Training Ground . For seven consecutive days they tried to hunt Demon Horned Sheep but no luck. They along with many students were wondering why the Horned Sheep in the training grounds suddenly dropped as in the past they would casually walk around and easily find horned Sheep in groups however now it was as if all the Demon Horned Sheep suddenly disappeared many began to wonder if there are demon beasts like the fire saber tiger coming in and hunting the Horned Sheep .

Nie Li was deeply emersed in thoughts about , How he and his brothers can gain resources like pills needed for cultivation?

Suddenly a girl with blonde hair tied in a pony tail approached Nie Li's group .

( A.N : This is what the girl looks like )

" Lu Piao ."

Hearing his name being called by a cute girl , Lu Piao straightened up and saying with stars in his eyes .

" ~ Hey ~ " With a twirl of his eyebrows .

The girl didn't react to Lu Piao's antics and said ," Lu Piao , I have a favour to ask of you ."

" Ask away , Ask away ." Lu Piao answered with a bolstered voice as a blush covered his face .

A white letter was present in her hands .

" Could you give this to senior Lin Lingtian ?"

The girl turned around and left , leaving a white Lu Piao .

Nie Li looked at Lu Piao and then to Du Zhe ," What's wrong with him ?"

" Well , hisroom is right next door to Lin Lingtian's which has caused him to get many letters of courtship so that he may deliver them to Lin Lingtian ."

" Aggg, Why does that bastard who hasn't shown up to class getting so much attention ?"

" Well , he did become the youngest bronze rank in the history of the Holy Orchid even though he is an orphan ."

" Ahhh, Don't talk about that bastard infront of me ."

Ignoring Lu Piao and Du Zhe , Nie Li was deep in thought ,' Just who was this Lin Lingtian ? If he was such a genius why didn't he had any memory of him .'

" Lu Piao ...."

" Yeah ."

" Do you know anything about Lin Lingtian ?"

" Well , I don't know much but rumor has it that he was a servant of the Sacred Family and that due to his talents the Patriarch of the Sacred Family had betrothed to Shen Xiu ."

" No way ." Exclaimed Du Zhe

" Well according to the rumors anyway but ..."

" But ?"

" Last night due to us searching all night for the Demon Horned Sheep I went to bed to get some sleep and there I came face to face with him ."

" What happened ?" asked Nie Li with great interest .

" The moment he came close to me , I felt afraid , like I was not standing before a human but something else entirely , his presence was suffocating ."

Seeing the shivering Lu Piao , Nie Li's gaze hardened as he thought ,' Was this Lin Lingtian part of the Dark Guild .'

" Guys , after school we are going to the Alchemist Association ."

" Huh

" Why ?"

" Just trust me ."

Lin Lingtian didn't know it but his presence in this world had greatly effected everything and the consequences of these effects are beginning to unfold one by one .

[ Holy Orchid Training Grounds ]

The smell of iron polluted the air .

Sitting on a rock , cleaning his weapons , Lin Lingtian looked at the mess he had made .

Blood and guts spilled all over the battlefield as he could practically smell the iron of the blood in the air .

Standing up , Lin Lingtian stretched his body as his muscles relaxed as he began dismantling the carcasses of the demon beasts he had butchered .

Due to the War God Technique , soul force was partially effecting his body causing his current physique to look like that of a martial art warrior .

( A.N : This is the MC's physique )

Lin Lingtian pulled up his interface.

It took him battling 1500 demon Horned Sheep continuously without break just to advance his rank from 2 star to 3 star bronze rank .

He didn't even know how hard advancing from bronze rank to silver to gold and onwards as every day , every hour his meridians expand more and more .

Walking through the forest , Lin Lingtian began to think of a problem he had .

He needed the blood of a Wood - Yin attributed demon beast to form his second heart or core but the blood of such a beasts is going to require quite a lot of money .

Even if he didn't want to buy the blood but rather information that info about where that demon beasts is found is also going to cost quite the money .

That's why he was saving as much money as he can .

Currently his savings were 20,356 Demon Spirit Coins gained from his hunts .

( Woosh ! )

An aroma filled his nostrils as he looked to the right .

A heavenly smell was actually effecting his soul force .

Standing up he began to sped through the woods as his figure was too fast for the human eye . A round moon hung in the sky. The sounds of various insects would be heard from time to time, causing the surrounding area to be increasingly quiet.

There's no large sized demon beast around, so it was extremely safe for many .

Suddenly, Lin Lingtian heard an abnormal sound from the distant jungle.

( Aaghhhhhhhhh ! )

With his hearing he could hear a scream .

His brows frowned as he ran towards the direction of the sound . He hid in the woods while looking at the field that's covered in moonlight. Using the moonlight to see, he saw a slender and slim figure groaning in pain as screams emitted from the figure in the middle of the moonlight. She had shoulder length hair, was wearing a leather jacket, and was exuding a cyan blue glow but ice was covering many parts of her body .

Lin Lingtian felt it . That ice was actually accumulated yin soul force .

"Xiao Ning'er?" Lin Lingtian hummed in surprise .

Lin Lingtian touched the hand of Xiao Ning'er , it was covered in ice and he couldn't help but suck in a mouthful of air .

This was the Artic Cold Disease .

Females produced Yin soul force more abundantly than males. And cultivating under the moon light was a method for increasing the production of Yin soul force.

Yin Soul Force was better for snow wind demon spiritualists or cultivators with the Soul attribute of Snow wind or Yin . So was the Cultivation technique she was using had required her to absorb abundant amounts of Yin Soul Force .Too much of which, that could lead to Arctic Cold Disease .

He had personally experienced the Artic Cold Disease for a few minutes , this had caused him to search about it out of curiosity what did Glory City suggest was the cure for such a disease ?

Well he found the Daoyin Technique , never practiced it but he still remembered it .

Lin Lingtian looked at the body of Xiao Ning'er .

This girl was strong , in so much pain she was still conscious .

( An Hour Ago )

[ Xiao Ning'er's POV ]

Xaoi Ning'er focused as best she could. The chilling cold of her body, and the blazing hot pain from her feet made it incredibly hard to cultivate, but still she had persisted. She'd been here for hours already, near the entrance of the training area where demon beasts knew not to venture. Beasts they were, but the more powerful their soul force, the more intelligent they became, and they knew powerful demon spiritualists kept watch near the gates and would kill them if they came too close.

This was the only time she could cultivate. During the day her time was filled up with Shen Fei trying to get close to her, her family making demands of her, studying and now starting today classes. Night was the only time she had to cultivate.

And she had get as strong as possible, as quickly as possible. The orange haired girl refused to become Shen Fei's woman. If it weren't for her father, the elders of the Winged Dragon family would have already married her off to the arrogant redhead from the Sacred Family and had her pumping out babies.

It was common for girls her age to be married off at her age already. Especially one like her who's growth had been enhanced with elixirs. Thirteen she may be, but Xiao Ning'er knew her body and mind had matured quicker and was more like that of what it would have been like once she reached around sixteen to eighteen years old.

She was the most developed in her class.Both curve wise in regards to the girls, and height wise compared to everyone else. She was the tallest of her class, even Ye Ziyun, the closest to reaching the bronze rank one in their class with the exception of that genius Lin Lingtian .

The pain in her feet spiked and the aura of her cultivation faltered, puttering out like a flickering candle in the middle of a rain storm . "Ah!" Ning'er gasped, falling to her knees and gritting her teeth as she tried to endure the pain running up from her feet.

What was wrong with her!? The last few months, this condition had appeared out of nowhere and none of her family knew what it was.

Tears prickled in the corner of Ning'er's

eyes. ' It isn't fair!' she raged internally. All she wanted was to be free, to pursue her own choices in life. She didn't want to be the bed warmer of that arrogant fool Shen Fei.

Was that really too much to ask for?

Persisting through the pain , Xiao Ning'er at a soul assembling pill and began cultivating .

Her body was cold yet hot .

It felt like she was walking on pins and needles .

But she could feel it , she was so close to achieving 1 star bronze rank .

Just one more push .

( Crack ! )

Happiness filled her , she was finally doing it . She was breaking through to the 1 star bronze rank .

Her soul Force began to change as Yin Soul Force began to penetrate her body .

Pain engulfed her .

She felt like she was on fire as well as she was freezing to death .

A layer of Ice began to form on the right side of her face and both of her hand .

She wanted to cry .

She wanted to scream .

' Help .'

' Pl...ease....hel...help....m...mmmeee.'

A few agonizing minutes go bye as a shadowy figure enters her vision .

' Am I going to die ? '

' At least i don't have to marry that piece of trash Shen Fei .'

Darkness engulfed her .

Lin Lingtian looked at the unconscious Xiao Ning'er and began to think .

' What should I do ? '

' This is clearly the Artic Cold Disease .'

' Do I use the Daoyin Technique that I have never practiced ?'

' What should I do ?'

Looking at the form of Xiao Ning'er .

' Why do I have to help her anyway ? It's not like I know her .'

Lin Lingtian looked at his hands and then slapped himself .

He may be someone that wouldn't bat an eye when seeing and performing massacres of Demon Beasts due to the War God Technique effecting his mentally but he was still born on Earth , his morals still were there .

Remembering the pain that flashed through the girls eyes , Lin Lingtian slapped himself again for thinking like a total psychopath .

Channeling Yang Soul Force into the tips of his fingers .

An orange flame covered his fingertips according to the Daoyin Technique he remembered .

The War God Technique gave him a 340% increased enlightenment .

He still didn't know the full effects of increased enlightenment but it was certain his ability to memorize and comprehend techniques was on another level .

Just from his memories he had performed the Daoyin Technique .

Lin Lingtian tried to massage Xiao Ning'er face that was covered in ice formed from yin soul force .

An hours go bye yet the Daoyin is not showing any great results while yes the ice was melting it was not helping much .

[ Appraisal Level 3 ]

[ Name : Xiao Ning'er ]

[ Status : Artic Cold Disease ]

[ Description : Critical Danger of Death ( 75 % ) ]

The percentage had only decreased from 80 to 75 %

Lin Lingtian looked at Appraisal window and looked at Xiao Ning'er , ' What can he do ?' as he looked at the icy layer covering her face .

He couldn't help but be surprised , he had missed it but for a second he felt the War God Technique being stimulated .

Placing his hands on the face of Xiao Ning'er , he closed his eyes and began to channel his soul force to move forward .

The Soul Force of Lin Lingtian which in terms of quality was equal to that of a 1 star gold rank even though he was a 3 star bronze rank began to interact with the yin soul force inside Xiao Ning'er's body .

The layer of ice melted revealing a black charcoal burnt mark on her face .

Lin pulled his hand out, and looked at Xiao Ning'er , he could feel yin soul force on the left side of her leg and ....near her ....heart !

Placing her on the ground , Lin Lingtian in a jerking motion ripped Xiao Ning'er's clothes off .

As he looked on the center of her chest , a black ice layer was covering it .

Yin Soul Force was entering her heart .

Immediately placing his hand over her chest , he began injecting his soul force .

Closing his eyes , Lin began to concentrate . This was a delicate process .

Yin Soul Force met Yang Soul Force as Lin Lingtian tried to create a harmony between them .

( Swoosshhhh ! )

Soul Force erupted from Xiao Ning'er's body which was formed from yin and Yang soul force creating a harmony .

The Newly created soul force was begining to strengthening Xiao Ning'er .

Lin Lingtian looked at the topless unconscious Xiao Ning'er as his eyes lingered on her breasts .

' Is a 13 year supposed to have such a body ?'

Picking her up , Lin Lingtian disappeared into the Forest .
