At two o'clock in the morning, the little golden retriever and the little white retriever fell asleep in Yanluo's arms, one on each side. Yanluo used his qi to lift the two girls and appeared in the girls' room on the second floor. He covered the girls with blankets and then returned to the room in an instant.
Bai Ningbing was fast asleep on her side. Yan Luo returned to the bed and hugged the fox demon sister. Bai Ningbing seemed to sense this and snuggled closer to Yan Luo.
Yanluo pulled the blanket up a little so that Bai Ningbing could sleep more comfortably.
At 5:30 a.m., Ye Min's biological clock woke her up. Looking at her naked younger sister beside her, Ye Min smiled slightly, covered her sister with a blanket, and placed a kiss on her smooth forehead.
Regardless of whether she goes to bed early or late, Ye Min wakes up at this time every day to practice her kung fu and start her day full of energy.
Thinking of going to the backyard, they found Tu Keke, Chi Miaomiao and Man Sui sitting in a row, their chests rising and falling rhythmically.
Ye Min was surprised that the three young ladies had gotten up so early and were even meditating and breathing exercises in the cold snow.
Sensing someone approaching, Chi Miaomiao opened her eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of white mist. Ye Min assumed it was because of the cold weather, unaware that it was actually due to her cultivation.
Good morning, Min-jie.
Ye Min and Ye Shuang are only one year apart in age. She is twenty-four and her younger sister Ye Shuang is twenty-three. Both of them are older than the rest of the family. Chi Miaomiao is a very easy-going person, so calling her "sister" is no big deal.
Ye Min stammered as she greeted Chi Miaomiao, "Good morning, Miss Miaomiao."
"Do you usually get up this early?" Chi Miaomiao stood up from next to Tu Keke and twisted her waist.
"Yes, yes, I usually get up around this time to practice. My master told me to practice every day and not to slack off," Ye Min answered honestly.
Chi Miaomiao nodded.
"That's fine, Min-jie, you go ahead and practice, I'll go in for a bit first."
Ye Min watched as Chi Miaomiao returned to the house, and then glanced at Tu Keke and Man Sui, who were still sitting cross-legged on the ground. Years of training had allowed her to see that there seemed to be faint wisps of energy around Tu Keke and Man Sui. Ye Min thought it was just a hallucination caused by her going to bed too late and getting up too early last night.
The roof of the backyard is covered by an automated system, preventing snow from falling in and allowing Ye Min and the girls to cultivate without having to do so under the snow.
After warming up, Ye Min began practicing her martial arts. Every punch and kick was full of power, and the sound of the wind breaking through the air reached the ears of Tu Keke and Man Sui. The two opened their eyes at the same time and saw Ye Min, who was full of momentum, punching. At the moment the punches and kicks were thrown, they could faintly hear the low roar of a fierce tiger.
This intrigued both Tu Keke and Man Sui. In the nearly 10,000-year history of Longxia, traditional martial arts have been an indispensable part of the long-standing Longxia civilization. There are many films and literary works with martial arts themes, which shows that the charm of martial arts is deeply rooted in the hearts of every Longxia person.
Seeing Ye Min fighting so fiercely, Tu Keke and Man Sui greeted her. Ye Min also stopped what she was doing and bowed to the two ladies in return.
"Sister Min, are you practicing martial arts?" Tu Keke asked, looking at the wisps of white vapor rising from Ye Min's body due to her rapidly increasing body temperature.
Ye Min nodded.
"Yes, Miss Coco, my family has been running a martial arts school for generations, and it has been passed down to my generation."
Tu Keke and Man Sui, turning into little fangirls, first exclaimed "Wow!" and then shouted "So awesome!"
This made Ye Min feel a little embarrassed.
Originally, it was thought that the two young ladies wanted to learn from her, but to everyone's surprise, Tu Keke suggested that she spar with Ye Min to learn some martial arts skills.
This once again brought a slight shock to Ye Min.
Tu Keke said with a smile, "It's okay, Sister Min, don't worry about hurting me."
Ye Min originally wanted to refuse, fearing that she might hurt Tu Keke if she didn't control herself. However, Yan Luo came to the backyard from inside the house at this moment. Hearing that Tu Keke wanted to spar with Ye Min, Yan Luo told Ye Min to feel free to spar with the girl without worry.
Ye Min, who had no choice but to adopt the starting stance, sharpened her eyes and exuded a serious aura. Tu Keke immediately became serious as well, and her aura suddenly rose. Ye Min couldn't help but be shocked to see that Miss Keke was still young, yet she had such an aura.
Tu Keke couldn't wait to attack Ye Min. Her clenched fists rained down on Ye Min's crossed arms in a defensive stance. Ye Min was surprised by Tu Keke's strength. This was even with Tu Keke not using her inner strength and holding back her power; otherwise, Ye Min would have reacted much more strongly.
Ye Min stepped back, dodging Tu Keke who was having a good time, and grabbed the girl's right arm with both hands. Tu Keke was suddenly pulled by Ye Min and lost her balance, falling towards Ye Min. Ye Min released one hand and simply gathered her strength to punch Tu Keke in the stomach.
Tu Keke, having been trained by Yan Luo to resemble a human, swiftly grabbed Ye Min's right fist with her left hand. Losing her balance, she leaned into Ye Min's arms, and with a powerful push of her feet, knocked Ye Min to the ground, then straddled her.
Although pressed to the ground, Ye Min still grabbed Tu Keke's hands first, then clamped her legs around Tu Keke's waist, and with amazing waist strength, she suddenly flung Tu Keke to the side. She quickly stood up and attacked the girl. Tu Keke reacted quickly, rolled backward a few times, and then stood up with a somersault.
The two exchanged blows, and Ye Min suddenly restrained Tu Keke's arms in a strange posture. Tu Keke tried to pull away but couldn't break free, so she quickly kicked Ye Min's knee with her right leg, trying to make her feel pain and let go.
Ye Min, who had practiced martial arts for many years, could not have her way. She withstood Tu Keke's kick, then flipped her palms over. Tu Keke felt her hands being released, and in the next instant, Ye Min's tiger palms attacked Tu Keke's chest.
"Black Tiger Claws Out the Heart?!" Tu Keke was shocked and tried to back away, but Ye Min's moves were too fast for her to dodge.
Ye Min stopped short of using her full strength and withdrew, and Tu Keke lost in just a few moves.
Tu Keke understood that if she were the enemy, those palms would already be slamming into her chest with tremendous force, and being hit would definitely be painful.
Ye Min respectfully clasped her hands and said, "You flatter me, Miss Coco."
Tu Keke also clasped her hands in a proper manner.
"Thank you for your guidance, Sister Min."
Yan Luo was also seeing a folk martial artist for the first time. He didn't see the faint white mist that Ye Min emitted when she punched, but he did hear the deep tiger roar from the Black Tiger Heart Strike.
Ye Min has been practicing boxing for many years and should have cultivated internal energy. However, without the guidance of a cultivation method, she cannot achieve further improvement. If she were to learn a cultivation method and become proficient in manipulating the internal energy, her strength would be extremely high.
Ye Min looked at Tu Keke and asked, "Miss Keke is very skilled and quick-witted, but she lacks practical experience. Moreover, I can tell that Miss Keke is not good at hand-to-hand combat, but rather at weapons."
