Chapter 223: Time Skip (2)

Everyone thought that it was karma.

Only Mu Ting Ye was thinking about the flags that Yu Shi Lan planted before.

Was it related?

Mu Ting Ye didn’t know.

He also didn’t know who he should ask.

The matter of the Lian Family soon went unnoticed, completely forgotten by the people there. Within half a year, not a single one of them survived as they all died one by one after becoming crazy.

It was truly a mystery how they managed to become so crazy.

With so many people dead in the Lian Family Residence, no one dared to get close to that residence as they felt that it was haunted.

Even Mu Ting Ye felt the same way.

Because the temperature in that residence seemed to be colder than the temperature outside.

But his daily practice with Lin Yuan was interrupted after around three months. Because his strength was far higher than Lin Yuan and the other party couldn’t keep up with his strength improvement.

“How did your strength grow so much in such a short period of time?” Lin Yuan asked in confusion.

It was one thing for them to grow stronger, but how did Mu Ting Ye surpass him in such a short period of time? Three months ago, he was absolutely sure that his pure physical strength was still higher than Mu Ting Ye.

Now, even his advantage couldn’t catch up with Mu Ting Ye.

“Hmm… perhaps it has something to do with the medicinal bath,” Mu Ting Ye replied, not entirely sure about this.

“Huh?” Lin Yuan was confused.

Medicinal bath?

Lin Yuan had to rack his brain before remembering that Mu Ting Ye and Yu Shi Lan basically exchanged medicinal bath’s recipe with each other. While he had also tried it, the effect didn’t seem to be that good for him, so he used the one that his master arranged for him.

Did Mu Ting Ye keep using that one?

“… Mu Ting Ye, have you ever thought what Master will say if he knows you’re using other people’s medicinal bath recipe recklessly?” Lin Yuan’s lips twitched.

He seemed to have seen the future where Mu Ting Ye was being beaten up mercilessly by their master.

Mu Ting Ye was silent.

He gave a bright smile. “Don’t worry, I’ll push you forward too. After all, you also tried to use it before~.”

“Get lost!”

The two people ended up fighting once again.

And this time Lin Yuan really couldn’t fight back. Both the speed and strength of Mu Ting Ye was more than enough to knock him in the training ground.

“… Tsk, I’ll also use it now!” Lin Yuan was unconvinced. How did Mu Ting Ye become so strong without him knowing?

Mu Ting Ye only smiled and didn’t explain much.

“It has been 5 months.”

5 months have passed since Yu Shi Lan left the base.

So many things happened here and the most prominent one was naturally the Lian Family scandal. But aside from them, there were also other thing such as the cold temperature and snow piling up.

The threat of the mutated animals seemed to have been completely forgotten.

With the nature trying to defeat them first, who would have time to care about the mutated animals?

Right now, people were scrambling to cut down various furnitures out there to be used as firewood. Many trees were also cut down when it was possible just to make sure that they would not freeze to death.

Eating more food could also ensure warmth.

But in this situation, who could have enough food to eat?

While the base was still providing daily cheap porridge, lining up would feel as if they were about to freeze to death.

It was terrible.

And after five months, not many people dared to come outside.

Even Mu Ting Ye didn’t dare to come out so recklessly like before anymore. Even though he did want to find Yu Shi Lan or find some free place to practice, the snow had piled up, turning everything into a world of white.

It was very cold.

And everyone’s survival skills are being pushed to the limit, forcing them to struggle hard to come up with various ways to keep warm.

Some huddled together.

Some burned woods and even books that they found in order to keep warm.

Some others just piled up their clothing to make sure that they could stay warm at all times.

Everyone was really creative.

It could be said that being pushed on the brink of death did bring a lot of astonishing potential for humans.

Mu Ting Ye sighed when he thought about this.

The Mu Family themselves were not that concerned about the cold. In fact, Mu Ting Ye was one of the rare few who could not feel cold at all, making his family members looking in his direction strangely.

It was obvious that everyone who could remain warm in this minus 50 degree Celsius of temperature was definitely a powerful warrior.

“Have you become a cultivator, Mu Ting Ye?” Mu Ting Yu suddenly asked when he saw his younger brother still wearing the same shirt and pants for exercise. Even though he’s a martial artists, Mu Ting Yu could not do what his younger brother did.

In the military alone, more than half of them had to wear warm clothes if they didn’t want to die.

“It shouldn’t be.” Mu Ting Ye looked at his older brother in confusion. “My master said that I can’t really become a cultivator until I broke through my physical limit and I haven’t reached it yet.”

If Yu Shi Lan was here, she would have known that what Mu Ting Ye and Mu Ting Yu talked about was the information that she really wanted to get.

Unfortunately, she had no such knowledge.

She was still busy out there with her own life.

“But you don’t even feel cold in this temperature.” Mu Ting Yu’s lips twitched at his younger brother’s attire.
