The trouble I worried about didn't arise.
Instead, Tian Chao really did send some people over to help replace the door of the stone house.
The materials used for the new door were clearly of high quality, much stronger than the old wooden board that was there before.
With this door, an ordinary Martial Pulse Ninth Level Martial Master wouldn't be able to blast it open with one punch.
Since Tian Chao was so obedient, Ling Xiao didn't bother to trouble him any further and went back to cultivating.
He had thought that the fight with Tian Chao would stimulate the power in his body and naturally lead to a breakthrough to the Martial Pulse Ninth Level, but the effect wasn't as good as expected.
Tian Chao was too weak to make Ling Xiao use much True Essence, so the pressure wasn't great, and the breakthrough did not occur.
Since he couldn't break through for the time being, Ling Xiao stopped worrying about it and focused on improving his combat skills instead.
