South of Wuling, when the news of Respected Immortal Master Li taking charge reached Yanzhou, Zhao Yuqing was practicing her swordsmanship.
Since Li Chen left, she had been tirelessly practicing her swordplay day and night.
Her constitution was special, and her talent exceptional, so naturally her cultivation progressed at twice the speed. In just a few short days, she had already mastered the sword art "Icy Heavens, Snowy Earth" to the Small Success Realm.
People in the alliance saw her, a delicate woman, practicing her sword relentlessly through wind and rain, day and night, and found it baffling. Some well-intentioned people, worried about her health, advised her to rest and not to exhaust herself.
But Zhao Yuqing politely declined their kindness.
She was already far behind; if she didn't put in the effort, she feared he would leave her so far behind that she wouldn't even see his shadow.
