Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 7: The First Encounter of Golden Wind and Jade Dew

The moon is like a silver plate, and the sky is filled with stars.

On the top of the cliff behind the Xiao family's mountain, Xiao Yan leaned against the protrusion of the lawn, holding a piece of green grass in his mouth and chewing it slightly. The juice of the grass root mixed with a little bitterness of the soil quietly dissolved in his mouth.

He raised his white palm above his head, blocking the huge silver moon in the sky, and then made a virtual grabbing motion, as if trying to grasp the bright moon in his own hand.

"Ugh"

Realizing that his actions were a little ridiculous, Xiao Yan sighed lightly, lazily put his hands behind his head, and his eyes became a little dazed for a moment.

"Fifteen years."

The young man's murmurs came slowly, and the plainness was mixed with an lingering confusion.

"Fifteen years~"

The sudden sweet voice destroyed the boy's originally sad mood.

Xiao Yan was startled by the sudden sound. He coughed violently a few times, spit out the grass root in his mouth, and looked to his side with horror.

A girl in a black robe was lying beside Xiao Yan at some point, with her head resting on her arms, the same posture as he had just taken.

Xiao Yan's voice changed a bit, and he said anxiously: "You are you!"

"Hey, does the Third Young Master recognize me?"

"During the afternoon test, were you imitating my speech?!"

"Learn how to speak like you?" The black-robed girl remained in her pose, but her tone became lost and gloomy: "After all, this world doesn't belong to me."

"It's you!" Xiao Yan suppressed his inner fear and said angrily, "Why are you trying to imitate my speech? If it weren't for you, how could I have learned it?"

"Oh my, Third Young Master, you are really wronging me."

The black robe obscured the girl's face, but from her voice alone, one could tell she had suffered a great injustice. "I just didn't understand what you meant, so I subconsciously repeated it. 'The world doesn't belong to you.' What exactly does that mean?"

"This"

Xiao Yan froze, stammering and unable to speak, and the anger that had risen up earlier was also extinguished by the coldness.

After all, his identity as a time traveler is his biggest secret and must never be revealed.

After waiting for a long while without receiving a reply, the black-robed girl tilted her head and spoke with a hint of sympathy.

"That's right. After all, the Third Young Master has fallen from such a high position, so it's inevitable that he feels disappointed."

"Do you know about my past?"

"You are a famous person in Wutan City. People have heard of your reputation even in the imperial capital."

". Imperial Capital, so the young lady is indeed not from Wutan City. No wonder she has such strength." After saying this, Xiao Yan paused, his tone bitter: "As for those reputations, they are just stigmas. After three years, I have gradually become accustomed to them."

"After seeing you today, I think you are still as charming as ever," the girl said, standing up and stretching. Her black robe rustled in the breeze from the cliff.
"Third Young Master, do you want to become stronger?"

The mountain breeze from the bottom up became a little stronger. The brim of the girl's black robe slipped down inadvertently, and her waist-length blue hair rippled in the wind like waves, giving her beautiful and flawless face a touch of elegance and freedom. The girl raised her red lips slightly, revealing a smile that even the moonlight was intoxicated with.

The silver moon, the galaxy, and even every blade of grass and tree on the cliff seemed to serve as her backdrop.

Her deep eyes silently gazed at the lost young man opposite her, letting time slip by.
It was unknown how long it took before Xiao Yan finally came back to his senses. Realizing his own impoliteness, the young man's face showed a touch of embarrassment and apology. He took a few deep breaths and said frankly:
"miss you!"

"How about I help you?" Hearing this, Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head gently: "When the young lady asked me earlier, I already had some guesses in my mind. I really want to become stronger, but... please don't bother the young lady to worry about it. I think there is nothing I can do that is worthy of your help."

In his opinion, the mysterious girl who suddenly appeared in front of him was full of doubts. Not to mention why she came to a small place like Wutan City, the phrase "her elegance remains the same" alone made Xiao Yan feel uncomfortable.
He is a third-level fighting spirit and others praise him for his elegance. Isn't this just a lie?
Therefore, even though the other party was indeed very powerful and the conditions he offered were quite tempting, Xiao Yan still chose to refuse. After all, he did not want to fall into the hands of such a powerful person and be amused by him.

Seeing the fear in Xiao Yan's eyes, the girl put her hands behind her back, looked him up and down for a while, and then said with a smile: "Third Young Master, do you think what I said is too fake?"

"." Xiao Yan remained silent, but from his slightly cold attitude, it was obvious that he agreed.

"Your cold attitude really makes me sad." The girl's eyes were filled with resentment, and her lips were pouting, which made people feel pity.
"Third Young Master, it's fine if others can't see it, but don't you yourself realize how special you are?"

"Special. What else can be special about me?"

"Hehe. Your spiritual power seems to be different from that of ordinary people. People noticed it as soon as we entered Wutan City."

Soul power!

As a time traveler who has lived two lives as a human, Xiao Yan's soul strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, which also means that he possesses extraordinary perception and talent for cultivation.

In his understanding, there seemed to be no special technique to assist in the cultivation of soul power. Even the heavenly-grade technique did not have such an effect. Therefore, it was the blessing of soul power that created Xiao Yan's reputation as a genius.

It could be said that this extraordinary soul power was Xiao Yan's biggest secret besides his identity as a time traveler. Now that he had been exposed, he felt even more uneasy. If it weren't for the huge gap in strength between him and the other party, he would have even wanted to turn around and flee.
"I see."

He took a deep breath and said, "I didn't expect that the young lady actually possessed the ability to detect soul power. In that case, I was too petty before."

"However, I still feel that it's a bit inappropriate to help with cultivation."

The girl remained silent, her eyes as deep as the ocean tides as she stared at him quietly. Just when Xiao Yan's scalp was tingling from being stared at, she suddenly smiled and said, "Third Young Master, it's a little too early to say that. Why not give me an answer tomorrow?"

"tomorrow?"

A burst of fragrant wind blew over, and the girl suddenly came to Xiao Yan's front, and her white and tender fingertips touched his knuckles intentionally or unintentionally, gently and coolly.
"Yes, tomorrow."

Before he finished speaking, the person had disappeared.

Xiao Yan stared blankly at the finger joints that had been touched by the other party, and saw a dark and ancient storage ring emitting a faint luster under the moonlight.

"This woman really knows something."

His expression changed, Xiao Yan sighed softly, turned around and said with a forced smile: "Father, you are here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man slowly walked out from between the branches of the tree, his face full of concern and kindness.

"Yan'er, it's so late, why don't you go to bed? Are you still thinking about the afternoon test?"

"Even her father didn't notice her."

After thinking to himself, Xiao Yan did not rush to answer the other party. Instead, he suddenly asked a random question: "Father, is there anything special happening tomorrow?"

"Something special? In that case, I was just about to remind you that we have distinguished guests at home tomorrow, so please don't be rude."

"really."

"Haha, Yan'er, what are you mumbling about secretly? Tell me about it too."

“.Ah, no!”

"You kid."
