Immortal Ascension Tower - Book 1: Reborn! [CH 1 - 75]

Chapter 17 - Do What You Want With Her!

As soon as Xiao Wu got home she changed her blue robe into the sect robe. She washed the blue clothing and put it underneath the pillow just like she had done in the past few days she had kept challenging disciples as the blue robed night challenger.

"Damn!" When she picked up the mask and saw it though, she couldn't help but curse. Deep cracks covered the wooden plain mask and she did not have a spare. Fortunately, she could make another one but it would waste time.

She sighed and applied pressure with her fingers, crushing the mask into powder. She walked out of the house and stretched before running again. It was still five in the morning so she could wait a bit more before running to the tower so she checked the door to Cheng Hao's room.

It was still closed from the inside and she felt spiritual fluctuations, meaning Cheng Hao was still meditating. Although she couldn't shake off the feeling that something might have happened for someone like Him to take so long to breakthrough she could do nothing as the room was sealed by a golden fluctuating symbol.

"Good morning brother" she caressed the door and then ran to the tower to cultivate the Purple Qi from the East. She sat down in a meditative state, but instead of starting to meditate she focused her Qi to her eyes and looked east.

Suddenly, light came from the horizon and the sky started to light up. Seeing that, Xiao Wu started to breathe in as slowly as she could and purple gas started to be inhaled in together with the usual air.

She kept inhaling for a total of two minutes and, when she could not hold it any longer and felt that she was going to faint she exhaled. Instead of purple though, the gases were now a faint green. She repeated the process a total of ten times until there was no more purple gas to absorb and then circulated the Purple Qi, adding it to her own reserve of Purple Qi in her Pseudo-Dantian.

She stood up and her long blue and purple hair waved in the wind. She slowly 'walked' back home, jumping from roof to roof enjoying the beautiful dawn.

When she arrived at the hut her cheerful expression immediately turned into a frown. She touched behind her head and realized she had forgotten to tie her hair in a ponytail and she remembered that she also didn't apply make up to mask her own appearance. Right now she looked like her true self, the handsome little girl that could make goddesses grow red in envy because of her beauty.

Why did she worry about that now? Because in front of her house there were a total of 20 figures wrapped in black cloaks. One had just walked out from the house and had spoken with whom looked like the leader. He was a middle aged man. He already had white hair although he was in his early forties, his expression was that of anger and pain and he was also the only one that did not hide his face.

"Sir Zi Luo, it is no use. Even I cannot break the barrier and if we use any more power those old fools from the tower of elders will notice us... We have tried breaking in from other walls but they are all protected by that mysterious golden light and instead of damaging them it is absorbing the skill to replenish its Qi... If we keep going like this it is likely we would just help the person inside..."

The middle aged man had a hand on his chin and was ripping out hair one by one in anger. He had beautiful mustaches and a long beard but he didn't seem to care about appearances as he removed another strand of hair.

"Useless fools! That boy... That boy killed my Zi Yao! How could I possibly let him go!" He stomped on the ground and a footprint a few inches deep appeared.

Xiao Wu frowned. Each of those men had higher cultivation than any of the opponents she had fought so far!

'These guys... Are they searching for Cheng Hao!?!" Anger and sisterly love appeared on her face as she jumped from the roof she was standing and landed in between the house and the black clothed men "Who are you, and what business do you have with Cheng Hao?"
