Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 268 Taking Advantage for a Reason
"It's not positive, it's negative?"

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly. Xiao Yan looked at Yao Lao, who was calm and composed, and asked hurriedly,
"Negative Nine Star Dou Wang, isn't that still the cultivation level of a One Star Dou Ling? This is no different from before."

Yao Lao glared at him. "First, you used the method of compressing your fighting spirit, then used that piece of black iron you obtained, and finally withstood the soul-detonating spell cast by the Wu Guardian. Do you still think you can use this opportunity to level up? You are lucky not to fall back!"

What Yao Lao said was true. If it were an ordinary Dou Ling cultivator, the mere compression of Dou Qi and the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire would have caused the body to collapse and be blown up by the Dou Qi.

Although Xiao Yan, who had a strong body, was able to barely withstand it, his body had already reached the edge of its limit. After the subsequent soul explosion, he was only hanging on to his last breath, and it was impossible for him not to be seriously injured.

Luck cannot be relied upon to become stronger.

Even if he is indeed a lucky man.

After hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan, who had been emotionally agitated, calmed down a bit and nodded, saying, "I'm sorry, Teacher. I got a little carried away earlier."

"It's alright. My revenge has been achieved, my family is safe, and my relationship is going smoothly. If I were younger, I would have been full of joy and carefree."

Yao Lao waved his hand and said, "Rather, it was your previously tense and un-teenage temperament that made me more worried."

"However, Xiao Yanzi, excessive suppression and relaxation are not good things. While relaxing, don't forget to always keep in mind the original intention of seeking the Tao. Only by letting go can you achieve great freedom."

"Disciple, please obey your master's orders."

Xiao Yan was not as serious as his teacher. He just smiled and nodded in agreement. He always liked to listen to the other party's sermons, whether it was a scolding or a joke, it was all for his own good.

"Then teacher, since my current cultivation level has not changed, why should I still be called the Negative Nine Star Dou King?"

Xiao Yan cast his gaze towards the empty Dantian in his body. After sensing for a moment, he turned and asked:
"Could it be because I've run out of Dou Jing? I've only been cultivating this thing for less than two months, and before I can fully experience its changes, it's gone. Isn't it too dramatic?"

"Don't tell me, it's really like that."

Yao Lao explained with a strange look on his face, "Typically, when a cultivator at the peak of Dou Ling reaches Dou Wang, they shatter the Dou Crystal within their body and instead store Dou Qi in the acupoints throughout their limbs and bones. However, the Dou Crystal is relatively fragile on the inside and hard on the outside, so it must be ruptured from the inside when breaking through."

"But you are an exception. You previously used two secret techniques in succession, which had already put the Dou Jing in a precarious state. After experiencing that soul explosion, the Dou Jing naturally shattered completely."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he checked his body acupoints in disbelief. Sure enough, he found the same weak Dou Qi as in his Dantian!

Although he still couldn't activate it, Xiao Yan could conclude that the feeling of condensing Dou Qi was exactly the same as the cyclone he had experienced before.

In other words, every acupuncture point in his body can now be regarded as the cyclone of the past!

"So, I am now a Dou Wang at the Douling level?"

Xiao Yan muttered something that was difficult to pronounce, took a deep breath, and rubbed his palms in disbelief. The pain caused by the injury reminded him that he was not in a dream at the moment.

"Haha, now you understand?"

Yao Lao pointed a finger at Xiao Yan's brow, laid him back on the bed, and said with a smile, "Come to think of it, this nickname was given to you by Ruoruo some time ago. In order to help you gather your fighting spirit again, she didn't have much time to rest. You should take good care of yourself and don't let this girl down."

After saying that, Yao Lao went back into the ring and whispered one last sentence,
"By the way, if you're afraid that the girl will hide from you and want to pretend to be asleep in front of her, it's best to do it as soon as possible. Her soul realm is likely to break through soon. Even this old man thinks she's a bit strong."

"Damn old man, I'm not pretending to be asleep!"

Xiao Yan covered the ring with a slap and shouted angrily with a guilty conscience.

As the ring fell silent, Xiao Yan took a breath and turned his gaze towards the direction below.

The bedding was new, and her clothes had long been changed into comfortable home clothes. The sweet aroma mixed with the medicinal fragrance in the air also came from the girl.
An indescribable strange feeling arose in Xiao Yan's heart.

"Are you going to pretend to be asleep?"

Xiao Yan was thinking in his heart, and he had completely forgotten about Dou Jing.

At the same time, in a remote courtyard of the Mittel family, Hun Ruoruo squatted beside the pond with a nonchalant expression. Upon closer inspection, she had completely lost her usual calmness.

The girl put her hand into the pool, and several small red fish swimming around seemed to have a target and hovered around her palm affectionately. The owner of pure water fighting spirit had a natural liking for them and did not show any fear at all.

The ball of water wrapped around the little fish floated into the air. Looking at the scene that was like a crystal ball, Hun Ruoruo's eyes were sparkling and she whispered softly.

"I've already got the Dou Zong soul, but unfortunately the guardian Wu was blown to pieces by the Fire Lotus and my 'Xuan Yuan', leaving only a broken soul token."

"Although Yunshan's Soul Order can be used, his soul has not been completely devoured by me. As long as the master is alive, the brand will not disappear. If I rashly use his Soul Order, I am afraid that the information contained in it will be lost. It seems that I have to kill him first."

"The collision of water and fire can actually unleash such power. It seems that it can be used as a killer move for testing in the future. Unfortunately, the beast soul has been basically consumed in the previous battle. If I want to regain the strength comparable to Dou Zong, I still need to slowly improve my cultivation."

"Xiao Yan's injury hasn't healed yet."

Subconsciously mentioning this name, Hun Ruoruo's words stopped abruptly, and she threw the water ball back into the pond.

"No, that's not right. There's no Xiao Yan! I keep subconsciously thinking about what that guy did. That pug actually hugged me in front of all those old guys. How dare he?!"

Recalling the boy's bold and reckless behavior, Hun Ruoruo felt uncomfortable and quickly protected her perky breasts. It was obvious that she was deeply traumatized by the touch that made her whole body go soft.

"Hmph, if I didn't know that he was so excited at the time, and his consciousness was blurred afterwards, and it wasn't intentional, I would have sucked his soul dry!"

Hun Ruoruo took a few deep breaths and rubbed her arms continuously. Her mind was a mess and she could only clench her fists angrily.

Why did she feel that every time Xiao Yan took advantage of her, there was a reason?

It's too much of a coincidence.
