Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go

Danfeng was granted a vacation.

Now that the last day of every week is a holiday, Danfeng can openly go out to find Chengxiao.

This was tacitly approved by the Dragon Masters, after all, Riding the Wanderer was too important to the Vidyadhara Clan.

In Chengxiao's courtyard, two figures, one tall and one short, were practicing.

"Hands straight, yes, focus your energy in your dantian! Hold the posture!"

Cheng Xiao is helping Dan Feng train.

"Alright, warm-up's over, pick up your weapons!"

Danfeng immediately relaxed his limbs, massaged his sore muscles, and then picked up a wooden spear.

Cheng Xiao is teaching Dan Fengyun the art of riding a spear.

Having served as a military doctor for so many years, he had studied all the martial arts techniques within the Yunqi Army and knew them by heart.

Danfeng has a great talent for spear techniques, and when combined with the Cloud Chant Technique, he can unleash a variety of moves.

Even though the inherited memories included spear techniques, Danfeng wanted Chengxiao to teach him from scratch.

The reason is that Cheng Xiao had previously taught Jing Liu.

When Cheng Xiao heard this, he felt somewhat helpless. He was teaching culture, not martial arts.

But having promised to help Danfeng improve his strength, Chengxiao naturally wouldn't break his word.

Danfeng was agile and swift, his wooden spear moving like a blur, each thrust as sharp as a bird's cry!

Moreover, a bead surrounds her, occasionally attacking Cheng Xiao along with the gun.

This is the Chongyuan Pearl, also known as the Dragon Pearl or Dragon Heart. It is the place where the Dragon Lord's energy gathers, and it is extremely powerful.

Using this bead in battle means that Danfeng is using all his strength.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break through Cheng Xiao's defense.

"Huff...huff..." Danfeng slumped to the ground, all his strength completely exhausted.

"Tired?"

"Nonsense! Can't you see I can't even stand up?"

Danfeng opened his arms and, taking advantage of the situation, picked him up and placed him on the stone bench.

"We still need to practice."

"Of course I know! There's plenty of time!"

Speaking of this, Danfeng was a little proud. At the young age of ten, she was already able to combine pearls with spears and control water to transform into dragons!

"How about we take a break and go shopping?"

"Okay! By the way, why hasn't Kagami-ryu returned yet?"

Danfeng enjoyed the tea that Chengxiao had brewed, but hoped that the other woman wouldn't come back and disturb them.

"She might be a little late, and besides, you're being very disrespectful to her. Jingliu is a valiant guard."

"Hmph! I don't think she's anything special! When I come of age, I'll show you the true power of the Dragon Lord!"

"Good, good, good, Lord Dragon Lord is the best."

Danfeng drank the tea in one gulp. Cheng Xiao had added his own ground herbs to the tea, making it very nourishing and calming.

As a dragon capable of sensing water, Danfeng can feel the warmth in the herbal tea, a tea brewed with heartfelt care.

The thought of Cheng Xiao brewing tea for her filled Danfeng with joy, but then she remembered that Jing Liu had been drinking tea brewed by Cheng Xiao for so many years, and Danfeng felt dissatisfied.

"I've rested enough! Let's go out!"

The sooner she goes out, the better. That way, when Jingliu comes back, the house will be empty and no one will be waiting for her. Just thinking about it makes me happy!

Danfeng was secretly pleased and couldn't wait to tug at Chengxiao's sleeve.

The two walked down the street. Since Danfeng was a minor, her dragon horns and tail could be hidden, so she did not attract any attention.

For some reason, Cheng Xiao was unusually compliant today, buying Dan Feng whatever she wanted to eat.

Xiao Danfeng didn't think much of it; on the contrary, her arrogance was greatly satisfied by Cheng Xiao's indulgence.

They played until night fell before finally returning to their house.

Danfeng was very satisfied: "I'm very happy today! Chengxiao, you can be quite likable sometimes!"

"So you're saying I'm annoying to you all the time?"

That's not what I meant!

Danfeng pouted: "That's just how you are! Always saying things that ruin the mood!"

Cheng Xiao smiled and gently patted Dan Feng's head:

"Bring me the groceries, it's time to make dinner."

"Has Kagami-ryu not returned yet?"

"She had something to do today, and Yu Zhao has already replied to me."

"Yay!"

Cheng Xiao pinched Dan Feng's cheek: "What are you so happy about?"

"No...it's nothing, you go and cook."

The vegetables I bought today are all things Danfeng loves to eat, especially the moon shrimp, which Niqing brought specifically for Chengxiao to cook.

Danfeng's mouth watered as he looked at the table full of food.

"Try it, the green pepper stuffed with shrimp paste and the three-delicacy soup are both good."

Danfeng, having lost all restraint, picked up her bowl and chopsticks and began to feast.

Especially the green pepper stuffed with shrimp paste. Ordinary sea shrimp is already very delicious, but this time they used moon shrimp. The freshness of the ancient sea explodes on the taste buds in an instant!

"Mmm! Delicious! Delicious!"

Danfeng, despite her small size, ate three large bowls of rice and almost all the dishes on the table.

Looking at her round little belly, Cheng Xiao was really curious about the capacity of her stomach.

Danfeng felt a little shy under their gaze, and her pointed ears turned red.

"What's wrong? It's delicious, can't I have a little more...?"

"No problem, eat as much as you like, I'm very happy."

Cheng Xiao chuckled and began chanting scriptures.

"I have taught you all of the Cloud Cavalry Spear Technique; you must practice diligently."

"And there's the body-refining method I taught you, which is specifically for unblocking the meridians. You should do it once a day."

"There's one more thing. The Cloud Chanting Technique is very important; it's the foundation of your power. Don't neglect it."

"There's one more thing. You need to change your gluttonous habit. Don't eat things from outside indiscriminately. The Medicine King's secret recipe might involve adding something to the food!"

"There's one more thing: make more friends. Your nobility and pride come from your blood, but you also bear responsibilities. Friends will allow you to face the future without having to do it alone."

Cheng Xiao rattled off a whole bunch of things, and Dan Feng felt like his brain was being flooded with countless pieces of information, making him dizzy and lightheaded.

"Ouch! Why did you hit me on the head?!"

Danfeng covered his forehead, tears streaming down his face from the pain.

"Listen carefully to what I have to say!"

Cheng Xiao said seriously.

"I know! You've said it so many times, my ears are practically calloused!"

Danfeng crossed his arms, looking like he knew everything.

"Then I'm relieved. It's getting late, go home and get some rest."

"Honestly, it's all because of you saying so much! We could have played the game for a while longer!"

Dissatisfied, Danfeng jumped off the sofa. Niqing was already waiting at the gate of the courtyard.

She bowed slightly:

"I apologize for disturbing you today, Mr. Chengxiao."

"It's okay, I get really bored on weekdays, but Feng brings me a lot of joy."

Danfeng was already blushing.

"What's wrong with you! Don't be so polite to him! We can come and go as we please here! Anyway, this jerk just sleeps soundly at home, he has absolutely no fighting spirit!"

After saying this, Danfeng had already run far away.

Ni Qing bowed again to express her gratitude with a slight sense of apology, and then followed Dan Feng's figure away.
