"Jia Qiu, Meng Xue, both of you should stop stepping on him,
" Yao Meixiang shouted at the two of them.
nThey were enjoying their moments in ruining Lin Cheng's face as they vent their anger.
nThus, they were a bit dissatisfied when Yao Meixiang told them to stop.
n
"What? Are you sympathizing with this hypocrite?
" Meng Xue asked. Her shoes pressed harder on Lin Cheng's face as she dislocated his jaws.
nYao Meixiang sighed as she walked toward Meng Xue.
n
"I just don't want your shoe to get dirty.
" Yao Meixiang said.
nRealizing her good intention, Meng Xue nodded her head.
nShe then released her shoe from Lin Cheng's face and smiled.
"Indeed, my shoes are too precious to be wasted by a hypocrite.
"
n
"Y-You bitches…
" Lin Cheng roared in anger.
nLin Cheng exuded his aura as it continued to increase at an alarming rate, and he was desperate into slaughtering them all for humiliating him.
nAlas, before he could even exert an ounce of his strength, Tang Lingling walked by and stomped on his stomach.
nWith a stomp of her, Tang Lingling destroyed his dantain and spiritual core.
nTang Lingling had effectively crippled Lin Cheng's cultivation forever.
nLin Cheng gasped in horror when he realized his profound qi began leaking out and that he wasn't able to muster any strength.
nA few seconds later, Lin Cheng vomited a mouthful of blood as he stared at Tang Lingling in disbelief.
nLin Cheng wiped some of his blood off with his sleeve before realizing what Tang Lingling had done to him.
n
"Y-You dare to cripple my cultivation?
" Lin Cheng roared as he tried to launch himself toward Tang Lingling in hopes of injuring her.
nTang Lingling sneered at his action and raised her legs.
nWith a swoosh, Tang Lingling kicked Lin Cheng in the face, sending him flying as he crashed into a wall.
nThe cave trembled slightly with some falling debris and blood splattering everywhere from Lin Cheng's mouth.
n
"I have warned you not to speak another word. It's your fault for not understanding basic language.
" Tang Lingling said.
nMeanwhile, Lee Tao walked toward Tang Lingling with a darkened expression.
nTang Lingling wondered what happened to Lee Tao as she tried to open her mouth to speak.
n
"Young Master-
"
nSLAP!
nTang Lingling held a gawking expression when Lee Tao raised his hand and slapped her across the face.
nYao Meixiang was in disbelief as she glanced at Lee Tao. Yao Meixiang was dead silent as she couldn't comprehend the situation.
nJia Qiu and Meng Xue were also shocked by Lee Tao's actions.
n
"W-What just happened?
" Meng Xue stuttered as she questioned the scene.
n
"I-I don't know… Lee Tao simply walked toward Tang Lingling and slapped her.
" Jia Qiu muttered as she swallowed some of her saliva nervously.
n
"D-Did I do something wrong that has offended the Young Master?
" Tang Lingling ignored the slap mark on her face as she asked Lee Tao.
n
"If I have offended the Young Master, then please forgive me.
" She then bowed and pleaded for forgiveness.
nLee Tao held a ferocious expression as his fist was clenched tightly.
n
"Didn't I tell you that I needed the trash Lin Cheng for something?
" Lee Tao said coldly.
n
"What's the use of him if he's now crippled, unable to cultivate a single ounce?
" Lee Tao shouted in anger as he walked toward the lifeless Lin Cheng.
nLee Tao glanced at Lin Cheng as he asked Xiao Chu mentally,
"Xiao Chu, are there any more profound qi left in his body?
"
n
"Yes, there is still some profound qi lingering in his body but it's being depleted at a rapid rate.
" Xiao Chu replied.
nLee Tao gnashed his teeth in anger.
n
"All my efforts are now wasted…
" Lee Tao muttered in a cold voice.
nHis current demeanor was unlike his usual self and had frightened the rest in the cave.
nEven Lin Cheng felt a cold chill running down his back when he looked at the current Lee Tao.
nIt was like Lee Tao had changed into a different person, one that emitted a high bloodlust and cold aura.
n
"W-What are you doing?
" Lin Cheng stuttered in horror when Lee Tao started extending his hand.
n
"Since you can no longer cultivate profound qi… then don't blame me for being ruthless.
" Lee Tao said as he grasped Lin Cheng's face.
nAfterward, a slight fluctuation began to erupt as Lin Cheng's face slowly became wrinkled until he showed an old man's face.
nIt was a sight of horror for the ladies as they didn't know what kind of technique Lee Tao did.
nHowever, they knew one thing for sure. Messing with Lee Tao will never come to a good end.
nThey watched as Lee Tao slowly got up and Lin Cheng now had the face of an old man.
n
"M-Monster…
" Lin Cheng managed to utter his final word before succumbing to his death.
n
"Tch, even his physique is trash.
" Lee Tao clicked his tongue as he wondered what he should do with the physique he harnessed from Lin Cheng.
n
"Hypocrite and trash all the way through. What am I supposed to do with his Earth Rank Physique?
" Lee Tao cursed.
nA physique directly affects the cultivator's physical strength and contains part of the cultivator's life force.
nIn addition, there are numerous rankings of physiques, and the higher their ranking is, the easier it is for the person to cultivate.
nLee Tao had never really cared about a person's physiques since it wouldn't benefit him directly.
nHowever, he was shocked when Xiao Chu recorded some of the data and found out the physiques ranking for Yao Meixiang, Jia Qiu, and Meng Xue.
nPhysiques ranking are divided from lowest to highest, Mortal Rank, Earth Rank, Spirit Rank, Heaven Rank, and Divine Rank.
nYao Meixiang had her physique ranked in Heaven Rank, which is extremely rare and unique in the First Heaven.
nIt was also because of this reason that Lee Tao decided to save Yao Meixiang's life.
nHe knew she would become more powerful.
