Douluo: God-level cheat, invincible as soon as you get out of the mountain
Chapter 656 Xiao Yan: My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens!
A month later.
"Have you all seen Xiao Yan, the number one genius of our Xiao family, lately? It seems he's locked himself in his room for a month and hasn't come out."
"I don't know. Maybe he wants to impress us again at the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony a year from now."
Three months later.
"Damn, it's been three months already, has he started to stink in the house?"
"I don't know, but I saw the Third Young Master a few days ago. It seemed like he went out to buy some ingredients."
Six months later, Xiao Yan's pupils were bloodshot.
During this period, his cultivation level dropped from the original one-star Dou Zhe to the eighth level of Dou Qi.
Furthermore, the battle qi he cultivated kept disappearing.
Even if I do nothing all day but sit in my room and meditate, it will only slow down the rate at which my cultivation level decreases.
Back mountain.
Fu Ye was leisurely lying in the bamboo forest he had planted, enjoying the cool breeze.
Xun'er, Zi Yan, and the other two followed suit, enjoying every moment of life to the fullest.
However, at that moment, Zi Yan and the others sensed Xiao Yan, who was staggering and had two big dark circles under his eyes, stepping into the back mountain.
"Brother Fu Ye, Xiao Yan is here."
Seeing Xiao Yan in this state, Zi Yan and the others couldn't bring themselves to play a prank on him.
"Hmm, I thought he would come to me three months ago, but I didn't expect him to stop for half a year."
Hearing Fu Ye's words, Zi Yan and the others were a little curious, but they wouldn't ask unless Fu Ye said something.
Before long, Xiao Yan arrived at the depths of the back mountain.
He hadn't been to the back mountain for several years, and the back mountain of the Xiao family had become a forbidden area for the Xiao family because of Fu Ye's move in.
Looking at the lush bamboo forest and the fresh air in front of him, he felt as if his body had become lighter.
Soon, Xiao Yan saw Fu Ye, the Three Demoness, and Xun'er comfortably reclining on a bamboo chair, enjoying the cool air.
"Hey, isn't this Xiao Yan, the great genius of the Xiao family? You don't seem to be in very good shape right now."
Fu Ye's voice carried a hint of teasing, and upon hearing Fu Ye's tone, Xiao Yan knew very well that Fu Ye must know the reason for his current situation!
"Lord Fu Ye, you should know the reason for my situation, and you would never help me, right?"
When Xiao Yan said those words, he felt utterly hopeless.
His cultivation was getting weaker and weaker. He knew in his heart that he would definitely be exposed at the coming-of-age ceremony in six months, and at that time he would become a laughing stock for everyone.
"Since you already know the outcome, why bother coming here in the first place?"
Fu Ye revealed a faint smile.
Teasing fellow villagers is the most fun.
"I want to know how long this situation will last."
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Fu Ye revealed a wicked smile and then extended a finger.
Upon seeing the finger, a glimmer of hope appeared in Xiao Yan's eyes.
A year? That's acceptable.
"ten years."
As soon as Fu Ye finished speaking, Xiao Yan collapsed and fainted.
ten years.
How many decades does one have in a lifetime? Xiao Yan felt like he was going crazy. Ten years from now, he would be twenty-two, and more than half of his golden time for cultivation would have passed.
Seeing Xiao Yan faint, Fu Ye could barely contain his laughter.
Meanwhile, Zi Yan, Xun'er, and the others could all sense that there was an extremely weak soul in the storage ring on Xiao Yan's finger, which was continuously absorbing the Dou Qi in Xiao Yan's body.
Seeing this, they finally understood what Xiao Yan's illness was.
However, if their brother Fu Ye doesn't say anything, they absolutely won't say anything out of the blue.
Late at night, when Xiao Yan woke up, he found that he had already returned to his room.
Recalling what Fu Ye had said in the back mountain, his heart was filled with despair.
His condition will continue for ten years!
"Damn it, my fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens! You say ten years? I'll work hard to keep it at nine, eight, or even seven or six years!"
Xiao Yan was also stubborn. In his opinion, as long as he devoted all his time to cultivation except for eating and sleeping, he could restore his cultivation level to normal ahead of time.
Six months later, the annual coming-of-age ceremony was held again.
"Xiao Yan, Dou Qi level seven, high grade!"
The news shocked the entire Xiao family.
They couldn't believe that the former genius's cultivation level had actually decreased instead of increased!
Xiao Yan had already mentally prepared for this situation.
His pride was shattered at this moment by the very people who had once supported him.
This was the first time Xiao Yan had experienced the feeling of being pushed around when someone is down on their luck.
And at this moment, he finally heard the true voices of his people of the same age.
He was once highly talented and the third young master of the Xiao family. His style was extremely flamboyant and arrogant, which made many people angry but dare not speak out.
Now that he has lost all his talent, everyone has expressed their truest feelings about him.
Xiao Zhan felt extremely distressed after seeing this scene.
He knew his youngest son had rarely left the house that year, but he had no idea that something like this could happen to him.
After the coming-of-age ceremony ended hastily, Xiao Zhan went to Xiao Yan's courtyard.
"Yan'er, there's a problem with your cultivation. Why didn't you tell your father about it?"
Xiao Zhan's voice carried a hint of heartache, but more than that, it was filled with resentment.
"Father, you can't cure my illness, but please rest assured, I will definitely become a stronger person than everyone else in the future!"
Xiao Yan could feel that as he doubled his cultivation, the rate at which his fighting spirit was being lost slowed down.
He believed that as long as he worked hard enough, he would definitely be able to end this period of being unable to cultivate ahead of schedule.
"How about I ask Lord Fu Ye to take a look at your health? With his abilities, he can definitely help you."
In Xiao Zhan's mind, Fu Ye, who had reached the Dou Huang level, was the strongest person he had ever met.
He believed that the other party could definitely help his son.
“Father, no need. I spoke with Lord Fu Ye half a year ago, and he said my condition would last a long time.”
Hearing that his son had already spoken to Fu Ye, he finally understood why the other party hadn't told him about it.
"Is it that even Lord Fu Ye is powerless to help?"
Xiao Zhan muttered to himself.
"I don't know, but he told me a year ago that with my talent, even without encountering any special opportunities, I could become a Dou Huang."
Xiao Yan's eyes shone as he said those words.
It's clear that in his mind, a Dou Huang is already an unattainable powerhouse. (End of Chapter)
