Battle Through the Heavens: Transmigrating into Douluo Continent, Forging an Emperor with Gods!

Dou Qi Continent, Wutan City, Xiao Family.

Xiao Yan packed his things and had barely stepped out of the room when he heard a great deal of news spreading throughout the courtyard: Xiao Yan, the young master of the Xiao family and the third young master, had broken through to the fourth level of Dou Qi!

This once again broke the Xiao family's cultivation record for the past century, causing quite a stir throughout the clan.

The family held a special reward ceremony for this, with each member receiving an extra month's allowance and themselves receiving five gold coins.

Xiao Yan took the gold coins from the person in charge of distributing them, watching the other person's quick and excited departure. "The one with the fourth level of Dou Qi is Xiao Yan... so the record of the fifth level of Dou Qi should be mine, right?"

However, he had no intention of competing for such empty fame. He casually put away the gold coins and continued on his way to the pharmacy in the market.

The reason why the family members reacted this way was ultimately because the memory of being forced to leave the capital was not far away and was still vivid in their minds.

Everyone in the Xiao family understood that Xiao Yan's dazzling talent meant a bright opportunity and glory to return to the capital. Therefore, the enthusiastic response was not surprising.

Recently, due to Xiao Yan's reputation as a genius, the Xiao family's prestige in Wutan City has also risen, and even the capital city seems to have heard of it.

But the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment in the future.

……

Xiao Family Pharmacy.

"You brat, you run here as soon as you have money. You really don't cherish the peaceful days of cultivation in the Xiao family at all." The goatee shopkeeper glanced at Xiao Yan indifferently. Although he said this, his hands deftly took the snake bone, snake fangs and venom sac.

"Huh? This poison... it wouldn't be the same one you used to poison the old wolf king last time, would it? You're even willing to sell this? Are you planning to repent and cultivate properly?"

He leaned closer and sniffed; the stench was overwhelming, as if it had just been dug up, indicating it was well-preserved. He looked up at Xiao Yan and said, "Unorthodox methods are ultimately useless; cultivation is the true path. I know that in the Xiao family..."

"Yes, yes, please stop talking, old man. I'm tired of hearing it," Xiao Yan interrupted helplessly.

"Hmph!" The goatee snorted upon hearing this, but said no more, instead focusing on fairly assessing the goods.

"Materials from monsters below level one usually cost less than two hundred gold coins. The quality of the ones you brought this time is quite good, and they're even poisonous, so they're worth one hundred and fifty gold coins."

Knowing the young man's temperament well, the goatee didn't bother with further words. He simply took out a stack of gold coins from under the counter, shook them, and pushed them in front of Xiao Yan.

"Take it, but the clan's internal testing will be in six months. If you haven't made any progress by then, this price won't be available again."

"understood."

Xiao Yan agreed and put away the gold coins. Although his cultivation talent on the surface could not compare to the infinitely glorious Xiao Yan, he was still considered one of the top "geniuses" in the Third Elder's lineage.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have received occasional extra guidance from the martial arts instructors in the training ground, nor the seemingly impatient yet actually caring attitude of the person in front of him.

All monsters below Tier 1 only cost 150 gold coins.

"If you're going to thank me, you might as well..."

Seeing that the goatee was about to start rambling on again, Xiao Yan decisively took the money and turned around, saying, "I have other things to do, you go ahead and do your work!"

It vanished from the goatee's sight in a flash.

"Hmph, ungrateful brat, if it weren't for..."

Before the goatee finished speaking, a girl's head peeked out from behind the curtain at the inside of the pharmacy. She had pink hair tied in two buns, and although she was young, her eyes were clear, yet they exuded a natural charm.

"grandfather!"

"Oh!" The seriousness on the goatee's face instantly turned into joy. He reached out and pulled his granddaughter closer, his face revealing undisguised happiness and affection.

Xiao Mei asked curiously in a childlike, innocent voice:

"Grandpa, who was that just now?"

"Just a decent, honest rascal."

Goatbeard answered casually, his tone carrying a hint of an elder looking at a younger person.

"Simple? You brat?" Xiao Mei tilted her head.

It was obviously impossible to associate these two somewhat contradictory words with the calm and composed figure from behind, but she quickly put it out of her mind and snuggled into her grandfather's arms.

Looking at his carefree granddaughter, the goatee's eyes were almost overflowing with joy, but deep down, a trace of unspeakable worry quietly flashed by.

The capital city... it's not so easy to go back to.

Without the help of other families.

Even with a Fighting King in their own family, things are still difficult, and the best way to form an alliance with a family outside the main clan is...

marriage.

As someone who's been through it all, he understands all too well. Xiao Mei's grandmother was just like that. He's not as passionate and impetuous as young people; he just wants to live a peaceful and stable life, just like he is now.

Rather than worrying that such a thing might happen to one's own family, it's better to take precautions and have him check things out first.

In case something happens, there will be an excuse...

Especially since their own granddaughter is so cute, she's very easy to be targeted.

We have to consider this.

……

I strolled around the market.

Xiao Yan bought two more books on low-level Yellow Rank combat techniques from mainland China: the fist technique "Mountain-Shaking Fist" and the leg technique "Mountain-Kicking Kick".

Although the saying "don't bite off more than you can chew" is a well-worn cliché, in an environment like Douluo Continent, having more skills is always an advantage.

Whether it's unexpected or not.

Whether it's pretending to be weak to take advantage of others, it's extremely convenient.

Furthermore, practicing these basic combat techniques doesn't take too much time, making them a good way to consume battle qi and aid in cultivation.

"But why do they all have to go against the mountains?"

"First it was splitting mountains, now it's bombarding mountains, kicking mountains... How much hostility must the person who created these fighting techniques harbor towards mountains?"

Xiao Yan muttered to himself as he tucked the two scrolls of fighting techniques inside his clothes and headed toward the Xiao family.

But as soon as he arrived at the Xiao family's gate, he saw a familiar figure holding a rabbit in his arms. However, compared to its chubby appearance two months ago,

The rabbit was noticeably smaller at this moment.

"Could this rabbit's ability to grow bigger and smaller be its special talent?"

The thought flashed through Xiao Yan's mind immediately.

But then, he looked up and met Xiao Xun'er's gaze as she stood in front of the door. However, someone unfamiliar with her would never have noticed the anxiety hidden on Xiao Xun'er's face at that moment.

"Xun'er, what's wrong?"

Xiao Yan strode forward and asked directly.

Xiao Xun'er, however, didn't have time to answer. Her tone was filled with suppressed anxiety as she said, "Big Rabbit is sick. Come with me!"

The soul beast is sick? Is it unable to adapt to the rules of this world? Or...? Xiao Yan's thoughts did not continue.

He quickly caught up with Xiao Xun'er.

I stepped into the courtyard and entered her room.

Xiao Yan saw the worrying large rabbit that Xiao Xun'er had mentioned.

Its body was curled up, trembling incessantly, appearing extremely weak. And it was huge! Absolutely huge!

The originally petite rabbit had grown to almost half the size of a bed! There was even a faint sense of danger about it.

Is it just an illusion?

Could I not even beat a rabbit?

Xiao Yan shook his head, clearing these thoughts away, and met Xiao Xun'er's worried and distressed eyes.

"What did you feed it this time?"
