MTL NOVEL Chapter 307: Daughter of Filial Piety Emerges from the Stick_2
Who did she think she was, prattling on and on?
"I..."
The next moment, Xia Hailu awoke, her face not feeling much pain. After all, with the physical toughness of a Golden Core and protection by Spiritual Energy, that previous strike was more insulting than painful.
He actually dared to smack her face?
He actually hit her?
He...
Her saber was already unsheathed, swooping toward Meng Yu!
"Smack."
Meng Yu switched the saber to his left hand and dealt another blow, smacking Xia Hailu's left face hard, without the slightest mercy.
Bright eyes and white teeth, a face so delicate—it felt rather nice to strike, just that no teeth fell out.
"You might as well switch back to your Golden Core cultivation level!"
Meng Yu shook his head helplessly. What did she think she was, daring to act so arrogant before him?
Even though the two were not far apart and their moves were honed to perfection without any flaws, how could she compare with Meng Yu in aspects like aura, perception, and judgment?
Xia Hailu stood there stunned, her face burning with pain—mostly on the inside. The first blow might be considered Meng Yu yielding, but what about the second blow?
"Eighth Layer Foundation Establishment!"
Angry now, she was a Golden Core, she suppressed her cultivation to Foundation Establishment, but her Divine Sense and quality of True Qi held significant advantages. It was just a momentary lapse, just a joke; she had to pay him back!
Her swing...
"Smack!"
Meng Yu casually dealt another blow, striking her head. Sparring with a Golden Core had its benefits; he didn't have to worry about killing her, given the impressive strength of a Golden Core's body.
Of course, she seemed to feel the pain, a tear falling from the corner of her eye. Meng Yu didn't know if it was from pain or discomfort.
All he could sense was her raging fury swelling up!
"Foundation Establishment Great Perfection!"
She couldn't hold back any longer; she wanted to use all her strength. No, to overwhelm him during the Foundation Establishment Stage—Foundation Establishment Great Perfection was certain to win!
The saber light was bright as snow, her swing, named...
"Smack, smack, smack!"
Meng Yu looked expressionless at the fool before him, his strikes unforgiving.
One blow followed by another.
"Smack, smack, smack!"
Simple, clear, yet filled with beauty, the reinforcement from over three hundred years of base movement training made it seem as if he had used cold weapons all his life.
Hand and foot together, eye and body in harmony, body and blade unified; this is the Minor Unity.
Every movement flawless, each form strong yet adaptable.
Qi and intent unified, intent and mind unified, mind and spirit unified; this is the Major Unity.
My three hundred years, spent with the unwavering focus of Golden Finger on Growing Golden Lotus, along with endless seas of blood and mountains of corpses, gambling with life and death, losing once could be disastrous, further honed through countless Golden Cores and cultivators' fresh blood sharpening the sword anew, where your two hundred years... meditation, classes, playing, spells, daily activities, even participating in various activities, all the while posing before me, claiming you tried your hardest!
Is it because you're busty?
"Smack, smack, smack, smack, smack, smack, smack!"
Three strikes on the left cheek, three strikes on the right cheek, then hitting the head, smacking the face, chopping the hand, poking the chest, striking the buttocks, kicking the legs, teasing... hmm, the last pause only came then, Meng Yu shook his head helplessly.
"Big sister, please don't waste my time, okay?"
The body of a Golden Core really is extraordinarily strong; in such circumstances to still stand, even trembling all over with anger.
"I don't believe, I..."
Then, a wooden sword harshly hit Xia Hailu's face again.
"If you're not convinced, just go away, stop nagging! I need to practice the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, I have no time to play with children!"
"No!"
She switched to another saber technique.
```
"Slap!"
Meng Yu slapped her across the face again, alternating between backhand and forehand.
A Golden Core Master abandoned spells, magical artifacts, formation diagrams, spirit pets, and long-distance divine sense, and suppressed her cultivation to the Foundation Establishment level to engage in close combat with him?

Meng Yu was also quite desperate. In all the land, no one had more experience in fighting Golden Core Masters than he did. Whether it was the three hundred Golden Cores from the Moon-Watching Sect or the later six hundred from the Eternal Night Palace, Meng Yu was there with his wooden sword, fighting various Golden Core Masters every day, completing his sword training!
"Master."
From a distance, the woman named Zhi Ruo finally couldn't help but call out, her voice timid.
As a bystander, she just wanted to cover her face and tell her master, "You really can't do it. The opponent hasn't even used her ultimate skills, and you're still getting beaten down."
Being called by her disciple, Xia Hailu finally calmed down.
"Are you really not afraid that I, with my full Golden Core strength, could strike you dead with a single slash?"
Xia Hailu took a deep breath, then another, and spoke calmly. She was a Golden Core, and if she exerted her full strength, the combat power of a Golden Core could be unleashed, the power in close combat...
She couldn't get angry. The fight just now was fair and square. People from the Blood God Sect might face beheading or bleeding, but they valued reasoning. She was a Golden Core, and Cao Xiao Jun was just an insignificant Foundation Establishment cultivator. She should...
"Slap!"
Meng Yu once again struck her face with his wooden sword.
"Are you worthy?"
"One hundred fifty moves, you really believed that?"
The ruthlessly callous man left everyone around him dumbfounded.
...
It was on that night, while Meng Yu was tormenting Xia Hailu,
"Seeking news about Ouyang Zhenxue!"
"Seeking all news about Cao Xiao Jun!
As Meng Yu and Xia Hailu chatted casually, the network system on Ceres went wild.
Over the years, the Blood God Sect had thought of reassembling the Blood Knife Legion, even allocating specific funds, offering special subsidies for those cultivating the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber. Any cultivator formally practicing this technique and achieving results could claim additional resources.
However, this method's starting point was very high, and it had been muddled theoretically by the Divine Sect's Seven Great Grade Five Divine Artifacts during a campaign that lasted three years. The Divine Sect's seven Transforming Gods had used all means, including eradicating the roots fundamentally, causing cultivators to easily deviate into demonic paths or descend into madness. Therefore, few succeeded, but these few have repeatedly created miracles on the battlefield.
Yet, a genuine, fair-and-square Blood Transmutation Divine Saber was executed by a Foundation Establishment practitioner who achieved Unity with Heaven and Man. How many years had it been since such an event occurred?
Unlike the Divine Sect's disdain for the Blood God Sect, the Blood God Sect's outlook on the Divine Sect was quite favorable. These people were reasonable, cultured, liked internal competition, and were extremely dedicated—even regarding marrying or family matters, they cared deeply. Therefore, wouldn't a Divine Sect Foundation Establishment cultivator who practiced the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber be the perfect material for immigration and publicity?
Many people frantically chased after every piece of information about Cao Xiao Jun, and those who returned from the gathering, with fresh blood marks and an explosive saber intent, excited many others.
When Cao Xiao Jun released that saber strike, many deliberately let down their defenses to absorb the saber intent, considering it an honor.
Memory Stones could record scenes, but the true essence of martial arts was far from sufficient.
Countless individuals wanted to know if the Divine Sect had found a way to quickly master the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber.
...
The entire community was in an uproar, and the Golden Core Masters not only went home but began apprehending people.
Those who had felt the saber intent, whose saber intent had not yet erupted, were seized by the Golden Core Masters, who then immersed them in the essence of that strike.
Never before had such excitement surrounded Meng Yu's courtyard. Numerous visiting cards were sent in, many True Sages expressed their desire to visit, but... the courtyard's protective formation remained unopened.
However, occasionally noises from within, including fluctuations of Vital Energy, signified the furious strikes of Golden Core Experts, so that occasionally, voices leaked out.
"You bastard!"
"I will kill you!"
"It's not your place to instruct me!"
The voices from inside sounded like a mother wolf's howl. Xia Hailu's voice was familiar to everyone. If not for Xia Hailu's disciple Zhi Ruo coming out, gently and softly informing everyone that her master was inside exchanging views with someone, the True Sages would have long been curious enough to go in and see what exactly was happening.
Those who had a good relationship with Zhi Ruo quietly asked what had happened, but Xia Hailu's disciple merely shook her head, indicating she couldn't say.
Everyone understood that Xia Hailu was instructing the young man on how to use the saber, but this person was stubborn and unyielding.
Indeed, people who came from the Divine Sect always carried an air of haughty arrogance.
It wasn't until an hour later that Xia Hailu burst out from the protective formation, her garments disheveled and eyes bloodshot, looking around as if... she had been violated.
Yet, looking at Xia Hailu's unsatisfied, furious expression, everyone was greatly perplexed.
