Chapter 131: Secret Mansion Part 10


    "Miss Chu, you should reconsider this. You are not suitable to y this game. Although your ice powers are unparalleled, without it, you can''t do anything."


    Standing in front of a wooden puppet that was hanged with strings, Guo Yang spoke. Next to him, Chu Xieyi was standing in front of the wooden puppet and also taking a stance to fight.


    "Are you trying to say without my cultivation I am nothing but a mere girl?" Chu Xieyi turned her head at Guo Yang and spoke with a cold expression.


    Guo Yang shook his head and said "It''s not about being a girl or a boy. It''s about training. You haven''t trained your body and it is not strong enough to break this puppet. On other hand, I have cultivated my body very well."


    "Although my physical strength is also suppressed, I have the experience to fight with my body. I am good at hand-to-handbat. And, I also have endurance even with my normal body."


    At this moment, Chu Xieyi clenched her fist and asked "Do you think I don''t have physical endurance? Who do you think you are to judge my strength? Yeah, I lost a battle with you but do you think just a single win makes you superior to me?"


    "Miss Chu, I do not want to judge anything. I do not feelcent just because of a single win. But, I do not want to miss this opportunity. Unlike you, this poor monk hase poor background. What I have right now is all given by Lord Buddha."


    "But as I walk forward in my path, I found this is not enough. I need to get stronger and have something on my own. This is a golden opportunity for me. So, please don''t make this harder for this poor monk." Guo Yang pped his hands together and slightly bowed in front of Chu Xieyi.


    "Is this how every monk behaves? Bowing to every person!" Chu Xieyi couldn''t help but ridicule him while clicking her tongue.


    Hearing her words, Guo Yang eyes brows raised with a slight trace of anger on his face. But, he closed his eyes and chanted "Amitabha! Amitabha! Amitabha!"


    As he kept chanting, Chu Xieyi narrowed her eyes and turned away. She stood in front of the puppet and punched. The puppet had two arms, two legs, a chest, and a head. Her punch strode towards its chest. But, the next moment, the puppet slightly ducked towards the right punched with its left fist.


    Bam!


    Its fist collided against her stomach, pushing her behind Guo Yang.


    "Gah!" But, as she stopped, she coughed out blood.


    Whoosh!


    The next moment, the puppet rushed towards her,pletely ignoring Guo Yang. Before even Guo Yang could react, the puppet had already rushed in front of Chu Xieyi. It raised its fist and smashed towards Chu Xieyi''s chest.


    Bang!


    Thud! Thud!


    Chu Xieyi flew out hard and collided against the wall. As she fell to the ground, the puppet appeared above her and smashed her head to the ground.


    Bang!


    The punch made her head bleed. But, it didn''t stop there. The puppet pulled its hand up and smashed down in her face.


    Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!


    Each strike was cruel than before. The blood was sttering out her head and dripping to the ground. Chu Xieyi turned to the right as she opened her eyes between the intervals of each strike and saw Guo Yang.


    But, Guo Yang was doing nothing. He was simply sitting on the ground and waiting for something. Chu Xieyi slowly moved a hand. It took her nearly five strikes till she positioned her hand towards Guo Yang.


    "He------lp me!"


    Her voice was barelying out of her mouth. Just when she thought swallowing her pride and asking for help will make Guo Yang help her, nothing happened. Instead, Guo Yang closed his eyes and did nothing.


    Bam! Bam! Bam!


    The puppet kept punching her. Her nose was broken, teeth had fallen, and the eyes were bleeding. This was the worst condition she has ever been to. Because nobody has truly destroyed her face like this. But, slowly the blood started getting reced.


    And, it was none other than tears that reced it. Tears continuously fell down her eyes. At this moment, she regretted coldly speaking to Guo Yang. She forgot Guo Yang was still a human. No matter how much of a monk he can be, he will still hold a grudge, not to mention, she pretty much tries something to destroy his future.


    Slowly, her eyes started closing as she started losing her consciousness.


    ''Am I going to fall like this? Why? Why is he so prideful? Why can''t he swallow his pride and help me? I did swallow my pride, didn''t I? I begged for help, cried for help. So, why isn''t he helping me? Am I so bad?''


    Her heartbeat increased furiously. She felt frustrated. But, suddenly few words rang on her mind.


    ''You are an idiot because you can''t even control what belongs to you.''


    When those words rang on her mind, her eyes suddenly opened.


    ''I am not an idiot. I am a goddess. I am Nine Heaven Ice Goddess. I will never fall, never again....''


    She raised both of her hands ced it at the puppet''s chest and tried to push it away. But, no matter how much strength she put in her strike, she couldn''t push it away.


    ''Pride! My pride didn''t help. I can''t even push a puppet. How can I be the Nine Heaven Ice Goddess once again? How?''


    Her eyes started closing once again but this time a new picture came to her mind.


    ''He won''t. I destroyed his chance, insulted him, and even showed my pride. He won''t help me.''


    At this moment, she didn''t know why but she wanted to cling to that feeling. She wanted Guo Yang to help her. This wasn''t her desperation.


    She truly wanted him to save her.


    Like how a hero saves a beautiful princess.


    But, was Guo Yang a hero? No! Was she a princess? Well, she was a goddess. But, she wanted to be saved. She wanted to move on. With all of her remaining willpower, she raised her fist. At this moment, the puppet was still smashing her face but it had done it slowly.


    "Ppl---ease .... Sa-----veeee... meeeee"


    But after speaking, Chu Xieyi realized that her voice was so small that even she could barely hear it. But, she was wrong. It''s just those punches that broke her ears alongside her face.


    Whoosh!


    Bang! Thud!


    Suddenly, a figure appeared beside the puppet and punched its head. This figure was none other than Guo Yang. He slightly crouched down and pulled her in his arms.


    Was she guilty of this pain? No! Although she was arrogant, she did admit it when she asked for help. But, Guo Yang didn''t help her.


    Was he angry? Saying no would be wrong. He was indeed angry but his anger had already faded away when she asked for help. Even so, he didn''t help her.


    The reason was quite simple. He wanted her to beg for help. It wasn''t his arrogance. In fact, Guo Yang had nothing to be arrogant. But, he did this to help her.


    The path of cultivation is long. If you are alone, you can''t reach the peak. You would need others to help you under certain circumstances. And, that''s what he wanted her to realize. But, he also didn''t want her to ask for help whenever she feel helpless.


    Doing this, he not only made her realize that her pride meant nothing. He also made her ask for help when she is truly desperate, not every time.


    But, a few seconds after holding her, he found something went wrong.


    "Waaaaaa! Hic! Hic! I knew. I knew. H! H!"


    "I knew you are my hero."


    At this moment, Guo Yang waspletely dumbfounded. He didn''t understand her words at all. But, the next moment, he dropped her on the ground and slightly moved their head back.


    He pushed the puppet''s hand with his left hand and punched with his right. His right fist struck its head and pushed it a few meters away. Without wasting his time, Guo Yang sprinted forward. Though it was nothingpared to his true speed.


    While he moved towards the puppet, Chu Xieyi stared at the ceiling with confusion on her, asking one question in her mind.


    ''Is he truly a monk without feelings?''
