Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 37 Gentle as Water

Xiao Jue forcibly snatched the jade bottle containing the Purple Heart Breakthrough Pill from Ruolin's hand and fed the pill to Ruolin. In order not to waste the Purple Heart Breakthrough Pill, Ruolin glared at Xiao Jue and began to refine the pill, while Xiao Jue stood guard for her.

The next morning, some students came to see Instructor Ruolin, but Xiao Jue sent them away, claiming that Instructor Ruolin was taking pills and that they should be in charge of student recruitment for the next few days.

After Instructor Ruolin refined the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill, Xiao Jue followed the same method and fed her a Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, forcibly opening her storage ring and taking out the pill.

Under Xiao Jue's coercion, Instructor Ruolin successfully broke through to the Nine-Star Great Dou Master level. However, after discovering that she still could not resist Xiao Jue, she took out the Qi Gathering Pill and swallowed it.

However, even after breaking through to the Dou Ling level, she was still helpless against Xiao Jue, so she had to take another three-patterned Qing Ling Pill and break through to the three-star Dou Ling level.

After three days of continuous breakthroughs, Instructor Ruolin stared in shock at Xiao Jue, who was gripping her wrist and rendering her immobile, and asked, "Xiao Jue, are you really only a two-star Great Dou Master?"

Xiao Jue said shyly, "Before my teacher left, he baptized me with the bloodline of a magical beast, and now my physique is comparable to that of a fourth-tier magical beast."

"Teacher Ruolin, I'm so sorry!"

Xiao Jue suddenly used force to pick up Instructor Ruolin and throw her onto the bed. Instructor Ruolin struggled violently, shouting, "Xiao Jue, you can't do this! You're making a mistake! Stop now, and I'll forgive you!"

"Mentor Ruolin, it's too late to say all this now." Xiao Jue grinned and said, "After all, you've already made your demands, and there's no chance to back out now."

"Waaaaah~"

With tears in her eyes, Instructor Ruolin watched as Xiao Jue successfully broke through to the fourth-star Great Dou Master, while Instructor Ruolin lay on the bed like a lump of mud.

It can only be said that he is indeed a Dou Ling expert with water attribute Dou Qi. His Dou Techniques are much more powerful than those of Xiao Yu and Xue Ni, but he was still easily suppressed by Xiao Jue.

"Let's do it again." Xiao Jue leaned in, startling Instructor Ruolin, who shouted, "Xiao Jue, stop right now! I promise you, I'll accompany you again after you return to Canaan Academy from your leave."

She really couldn't take it anymore, because Xiao Jue wasn't gentle at all. Perhaps it was because her temperament was too gentle that Xiao Jue had violent thoughts, but she really couldn't endure it any longer.

"Mentor, you're not going to lie to me again, are you?" Xiao Jue said quietly, "I don't care, let's talk about it after this is over."

……

Xiao Jue grinned mischievously, "Teacher, do you know how to say 'Imperial Law' in your mouth? Then I'll promise you I'll be with you again in two years, or we'll do it again."

"No!" Ruolin exclaimed, forcing herself to sit up despite the pain. But when she saw Xiao Jue take two steps back, she rolled her eyes at him, climbed off the bed, and knelt in front of him.

"Mentor Ruolin, you're amazing!"

Xiao Jue gasped and handed the low-level Earth-rank water-attribute cultivation technique he had prepared to Instructor Ruolin.

"Mentor, Xiao Yu also has high-level Xuan-rank water-attribute fighting techniques and low-level Di-rank techniques. You can learn them from her when the time comes."

Gently stroking Instructor Ruolin's hair, Xiao Jue finally decided to leave Wutan City.

"Alright." Instructor Ruolin breathed a sigh of relief. Her face was filled with sorrow, and she really didn't know how to condemn Xiao Jue. After all, she was the one who accepted Xiao Jue's pills first and said those words, which could be considered as setting conditions.

But she couldn't believe that Xiao Jue was actually just like her arm, and she even felt comfortable with it. This made Instructor Ruolin feel ashamed and unsure how to face Xiao Jue.

"Two years later..." Instructor Ruolin sighed, using her battle qi to heal the red marks on her body. Then she opened the low-level earth-rank water attribute cultivation technique that Xiao Jue had prepared for her and began to cultivate it.

……

"That was awesome!"

After leaving Instructor Ruolin's room, Xiao Jue breathed a sigh of relief. Instructor Ruolin's health was truly remarkable, making Xiao Jue linger there. It was a pity that he could not go directly to Canaan Academy.

In the dead of night, Xiao Jue arrived at Xiao Yan's courtyard and immediately kicked him.

"Clang!"

"Hiss!" Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, sat up in bed, and said angrily, "You're going to kick the door down in the middle of the night, huh?"

Xiao Jue said calmly, "Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame."

Xiao Yan let out a long breath, a fawning smile spreading across his face. "Big Brother!"

The latest novel is first published here!

"Let's go, it's time to set off now," Xiao Jue said. "I've prepared everything for the Monster Mountain Range: fresh water, dry rations, tents, insect repellent, and the low-grade medicinal herbs you use to refine pills, as well as the healing pills and recovery pills I've made."

"Walk!"

Xiao Yan immediately became excited. Heading to the Monster Mountain Range, with Yao Lao protecting him, he was unlikely to encounter any danger, but it would certainly be thrilling and exciting.

Looking at Xiao Yan's eager expression, Yao Lao raised an eyebrow and said softly, "From birth until now, you have never experienced a life-or-death battle. A person's potential only erupts like a volcano when their life is threatened. With your previous lukewarm cultivation, you will probably never become a true powerhouse!"

"You don't lack talent for cultivation; what you lack is the tempering of iron and blood!" Yao Lao glanced at Xiao Yan, whose dressing speed was slowing down, and said calmly, "Only by successfully undergoing the tempering of blood and fire will you truly undergo a transformation."

Xiao Yan slowly clenched his fist, then smiled and raised his face at Yao Lao: "I believe I can pass."

"It's good that you have confidence." Yao Lao nodded with a light laugh, he was also very satisfied with Xiao Yan's confidence.

"Hehe, teacher, when are you going to teach me that Earth-rank fighting technique you mentioned last time?" Xiao Yan chuckled, leaned closer, and asked with a longing smile. He had been yearning for that Earth-rank fighting technique for a long time.

Yao Lao glanced sideways at the smiling Xiao Yan, a mocking smile appearing on his aged face: "Don't worry, since I said I'd teach you, I won't go back on my word. Once we leave Wutan City, you can wait and learn at your own pace!"

Seeing Yao Lao's appearance, Xiao Yan had a bad feeling. He chuckled twice, said nothing more, stuffed all his things into his pocket, kicked open the door, and walked out with Xiao Jue.
