Chapter 119 Xun'er: I understand you, Brother Xiao Yan

Eight-star Fighter, low-level Xuan-rank cultivation technique, Bone Spirit Cold Flame Sub-Flame —

In just one day, Xiao Yan's gains far exceeded those of the previous year. Only then did he understand why the resources and foundation of powerful forces could cause ordinary people to despair.

A single teacher, with his own knowledge and some hidden treasures, could give him such a great boost. Xiao Yan also understood why Nalan Yanran was so arrogant before. She did have the right to be arrogant. Yunlan Sect was indeed a behemoth.

However, Xiao Yan believed that his teacher was absolutely no less capable than the Yunlan Sect.

To be honest, Xiao Yan didn't feel much about Nalan Yanran's annulment of the engagement. After all, they weren't very familiar with each other. If she hadn't come, Xiao Yan himself wouldn't have known that he had such a fiancée, and he had never heard of her at all.

However, what she shouldn't have done was, in front of everyone, Nalan Yanran told her father, Xiao Zhan, to cancel the engagement, thus embarrassing her father.

To insult one's father in front of one's son is rude.

If you come over quietly and discuss it privately, then nothing will happen.

Even after Xiao Yan offended his father Xiao Zhan, Nalan Yanran proposed a strategy of delaying the battle for three years. After three years, when both parties came of age, they would fight at the Yunlan Sect, with the loser bearing all the consequences.

That's right. In fact, the so-called three-year agreement was proposed by Nalan Yanran, even though she knew that Xiao Yan had lost his talent.

Later, Xiao Yan regained the initiative, divorced Nalan Yanran, accepted the three-year agreement, and uttered the famous saying, "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river."

"Nalan Yanran, wait for me. There are only two years left. I will come to find you."

After taking care of everything, Xiao Yan slowly left the back mountain. When he approached the family and saw that there was no one around, he breathed a sigh of relief, took big strides, and walked straight back.

At this time, Xiao Yan's formal coming-of-age ceremony had already passed. Yao Chen considered that Xiao Yan's breakthrough to Dou Zhe had caused quite a stir, so he allowed him to break through after that.

Nothing major happened during that time, except that Xiao Yan's cousin Xiao Yu, who didn't get along with him, returned and also had a fight with the unwilling Xiao Ning.

There's not much to say. Xiao Yan unleashed his special effects and instantly killed Xiao Ning, just like he killed Xiao Ke, leaving him no chance to even take his medicine.

While pondering things, Xiao Yan walked towards his room. His teacher had told him to remember to go to the Garan Academy, where there was information about the Strange Flame.

Just as he was pondering how to get closer to the strange fire, a young girl dressed in green suddenly darted out from a side path and stood gracefully in front of him.

Looking at Xun'er's smiling face, Xiao Yan's heart skipped a beat. He recalled the scene not long ago when they were choosing cultivation techniques together, and Xun'er took out the Xuan-level high-grade Fire Manipulation Technique to persuade him to choose it, but he cleverly refused.

He was initially a little flustered because the Burning Technique was only at the Yellow level at first, but now that it had evolved, Xiao Yan felt calm again.

Looking at the slightly unfocused gaze before her, Xun'er hesitated for a moment, until Xiao Yan's eyes regained their clarity, at which point Xun'er shook her head in bewilderment.

Taking a step forward, Xun'er's eyes swept over Xiao Yan, a hint of surprise appearing on her delicate face. Her joy intensified, and she placed her hands behind her back, leaning slightly forward to bring their faces within a centimeter. With a half-smile, she asked, "Brother Xiao Yan, you've advanced to the Dou Zhe level?"

The girl's cheerful teasing momentarily distracted Xiao Yan, and after clarifying his feelings, he became even more infatuated with Xun'er.

Shaking his head vigorously to banish all romantic thoughts, Xiao Yan reached out and patted the head of the girl in front of him, who was almost as tall as him, and said helplessly, "You little rascal, your nose is sharper than a dog's. Can't you just let me say it out loud to satisfy my vanity?"

Hearing this, Xun'er's eyes curved slightly, her cheeks puffed out a little, and she said softly, "Xun'er is not a puppy~"

A famous person once said that the most beautiful woman in the world is nothing more than a blush on a young girl's face.

Looking at the slightly shy Xun'er, Xiao Yan blinked and felt all the romantic thoughts he had cast aside creep back into his heart.

"Brother Xiao Yan—what are you looking at?" Thinking of the important matter, Xun'er ignored Xiao Yan's teasing and was about to say something when she looked up and noticed his burning eyes. Her little face turned red, and she gently scolded him.

"Huh? Uh—" Startled awake, Xiao Yan's face also turned a little red, but fortunately, his skin was much thicker than Xun'er's. After coughing twice, he said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, I just think Xun'er is getting prettier and prettier."

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xun'er gave a noncommittal hum, but her rosy lips curved into a pleasant smile.

"Oh, right—" Xun'er smiled, then suddenly turned her gaze to Xiao Yan again, and said softly, "Now that Brother Xiao Yan has advanced to the Dou Zhe level, shouldn't you be learning Dou Qi techniques too?"

Having been given a crucial answer, Xiao Yan nodded, feeling somewhat confident.

It seems that although Xun'er could tell that he had broken through to the Dou Zhe level, she hadn't been able to determine his exact star level.

Yao Chen smiled slightly, using his soul power to cover up Xiao Yan's unconsciously radiating fighting spirit, concealing his merit and fame, and then watched the live-streamed romantic comedy.

With slender fingers resting on her snow-white chin, Xun'er smiled and said, "May I see what level of cultivation technique it is?"

"Ahem—the cultivation technique—of course there's no problem, it's just that, Xun'er, what do you say—" Xiao Yan originally wanted to give Xun'er a heads-up, after all, a low-level Xuan rank is lower than a high-level one, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he inexplicably became a clumsy mouth.

Seeing Xiao Yan's appearance, Xun'er's eyes narrowed into a dangerous arc, yet her voice remained gentle and captivating: "Brother Xiao Yan, please let Xun'er take a look—"

Seeing this, Xiao Yan could only tell himself that what was coming would come. He stretched out his hand, and after a moment, a faint blue-white light surged up.

"Brother Xiao Yan, if Xun'er's perception isn't mistaken, this seems to be a low-level Xuan-rank cultivation technique, right? And it also seems to be—"

Gazing at the color that resembled a rose in ice, Xun'er narrowed her eyes. She was initially somewhat angry, but she seemed to sense something different.

Just like her Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, it is an existence of equal value.

and many more!

Xun'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she looked at Xiao Yan with a smile. Was this also a kind of foundation? A foundation that suited Xiao Yan's unique qualities?

"Brother Xiao Yan, your Dou Qi seems a bit strange. It's clearly fire with wood attributes, but why does Xun'er sense a chilling aura of ice within it?"

Xun'er drew out her words, speaking in small slurs, her tone devoid of anger, only revealing a hint of probing and joy.

The Xiao family was once comparable to the Gu family, a perfect match. If Xiao Yan could acquire that foundation, the obstacles would be greatly reduced.

"Well, this—"

Xiao Yan chuckled twice, quickly concocting an excuse in his mind: fire, fire, then—

"Xun'er, as you may have guessed, this is my bloodline talent. As my father said, my Xiao family was not simple in the past."

Xiao Yan scratched his head and replied with a forced smile. After all, his teacher had said that after eating the Flame-Flame Fruit, it would become one with his flesh and blood, and could be considered as a bloodline power.

Upon hearing this, Xun'er's smile blossomed like a flower. Yes, that's right. She had heard that the Xiao clan's elder, who was as powerful as her father, also possessed three different kinds of strange fire.

Even though its grade is not as high as the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame inherited from the ancient clans, its power is still considerable.

For the weak, strange fire is used to amplify their own power, but for the strong, they can amplify strange fire themselves.

"Oh, I see. Brother Xiao Yan, I don't dislike that you have your own secrets. After all, I have my own secrets too. Besides, the stronger you are, the happier I am."

Xun'er winked at Xiao Yan, her eyes filled with blessings and expectations.

"Is that so? I understand." Xiao Yan smiled. Now he understood why Xun'er had so many things she couldn't say.

Secrets are really hard to talk about.
