In a sense, I am quite similar to my brother in this life.

Indeed, genes can influence people, including their personality.

Zhang Fan's expression changed instantly.

Shock, vigilance, and suspicion were all mixed together.

"What did you say?"

Xu Yanli smiled faintly: "Elder Zhang should know better than anyone about the Poison Sect Master's physical condition these past few years. Every full moon night, he suffers from unbearable pain in his body, and his cultivation has stagnated. Am I wrong about that?"

Zhang Fan's face immediately darkened.

He didn't speak, but the soul power around him had already begun to surge faintly.

"Little one, who told you these things?"

“Nobody told me,” Xu Yanli said calmly. “I figured it out myself.”

"you?"

“If Elder Zhang doesn’t believe me, he can certainly let me try.” Xu Yanli paused. “It’s just a meeting; what loss could the Body Sect possibly suffer?”

Zhang Fan stared at him for a long time before finally stepping aside to make way for him.

"Come with me. But I'm warning you, if you dare to try anything..."

"Elder Zhang, rest assured." Xu Yanli chuckled lightly. "I'm someone who values ​​my life the most."

In the main hall of the Body Sect, only Du Bu Si remained.

Du Busi sat at the top. Xu Yanli could sense the other man's aging, but he couldn't see it in his eyes at all; they were still frighteningly bright.

Xu Yanli stood in the center of the main hall, his expression calm, staring directly at Du Busi.

"Little brat, I've heard you can heal my hidden injuries?"

Poison Undying's voice was hoarse and deep, with a hint of amusement in his scrutiny, "Tell me, what makes you think you can?"

Xu Yanli did not rush to argue with him, but slowly released his martial spirit.

After all, facts speak louder than words.

In an instant, a holy and dazzling light burst forth from behind him, and the enormous phantom of a twelve-winged angel appeared half-hidden, with the halos of the sun, moon, and stars slowly flowing around him, sacred and serene.

Two purple and three black spirit rings rose slowly and neatly beneath his feet.

Poison Immortal's eyes narrowed slightly.

Chapter 40 Negotiations with the Body Sect

Soul King?

Angelic Martial Soul, is this child 15 years old?

What a prodigy! It seems cooperation might not be a bad idea. Perhaps this child could become the first healing-type Limit Douluo, or even a god...

Although Du Busi thought this in his heart, his expression remained unchanged, still very serious: "Interesting, your martial spirit is not bad, but you are only level 50 now, can you heal my hidden injuries?"

Xu Yanli smiled and said, "Sect Leader Poison, whether you believe me or not is no longer important. What's important is that the opportunity is right in front of you. Are you willing to take it?"

Poison Immortal paused, his eyes tightly closed. After a while, he slowly opened them, revealing a burst of golden light as he laughed and said, "Oh, these alone don't count as an opportunity. Little brat, I have no more desire to break through my limits."

Xu Yanli did not back down. Instead, he stepped forward and said with a smile, "What about the sect's inheritance? Doesn't the Poison Sect Master care at all? Or do you really want to be bound to the Heavenly Soul Empire?"

"So what if we're bound together?" Poison Undying sneered. "At least the Heavenly Soul Empire gave us the main body sect land, name, and identity."

Xu Yanli looked up and stared directly into Du Busi's eyes, a smile appearing on his face: "What if I could give you all of these? And I wouldn't have any suspicions about you, because I'm confident and capable."

"Oh, isn't a weak monarch a good thing? That way, our Body Sect can reign supreme within the Heavenly Soul Empire," Poison Undying said calmly.

After Xu Yanli looked around to make sure that no one else was there, he calmly said, "What if I have the potential to become a god?"

At this moment, Poison Undying clenched his fists, a look of disbelief flashing in his eyes.

The few who became gods ten thousand years ago protected the Tang Sect for over a thousand years, even though each sect leader was not very capable.

But soon, his expression changed instantly. After all, words are not enough, and there have been countless people of extraordinary talent over the past tens of thousands of years, yet none of them have become gods.

"Becoming a god, little brat? Do you know what you're saying? So many people want to walk the path to godhood, but apart from a few from ten thousand years ago, who has ever succeeded?" Poison Immortal sneered.

The oppressive aura of the poison-invincible being instantly subsided, as if trying to ascertain the true strength of the person before him.

Unfortunately, Long Xiaoyao wouldn't indulge him.

The moment he released his oppressive aura, the air in the entire hall instantly froze.

Xu Yanli could feel an invisible pressure, as if an invisible hand was pressing down on every part of the space.

Poison Immortal's eyes narrowed instantly, his face turning deathly pale. He said, enunciating each word clearly, "Limit Douluo!"

It was a faint aura that slowly emanated from the space behind Xu Yanli.

The aura at this moment did not have any intention of attacking, but simply returned the pressure quietly, as if to say, "I am here, who dares to bully the juniors?"

However, the mere presence of that aura was enough to deter Poison Undying from suppressing his pressure any further, nor from testing the young man before him.

Huo Yuhao nervously gripped the hem of his clothes, slowly reaching out one hand to Xu Yanli's hem and tugging at it.

Xu Yanli rolled his eyes and glanced at Huo Yuhao. Seeing the expression on Huo Yuhao's face, a hint of helplessness flashed across his own.

He actually understood what this guy meant; this guy actually asked why he brought him here.

Poison Undying's gaze was fixed intently on the people in front of him, not daring to relax in the slightest. His tone naturally softened a bit as he said:

"Fine, even if what you say is true, why should I believe you? Why should I believe you can heal my hidden injuries? Why should I believe you will become a god in the future? And why should I remember today's promise after becoming a god?"

Xu Yanli smiled and said, "Then why don't you try out my martial soul's healing ability first?"

Poison Immortal slowly clenched his fists, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay."

The angel behind Xu Yanli shone brightly once more, its hands clasped together in a gesture of prayer.

The fourth soul ring suddenly lit up, revealing the fourth soul skill: Moon Tide Prayer and Tranquility Mantra.

White light emanated slowly from the angel's martial spirit and landed on the body of the Body Sect Master, Poison Undying.

Poison Undying let out a soft groan, clearly enjoying the sensation.

He could clearly feel the hidden injuries in his body healing little by little, but when they were more than half healed, the healing stopped abruptly.

Xu Yanli slowly opened his eyes and said with a smile, "Poison Sect Master, how is it?"

"Not bad, it seems you have the ability to heal my hidden injuries. But what do you want?" Poison Undying stared at Xu Yanli, a look of disbelief flashing in his eyes.

"I want an ally, and at the same time, I want a partner on the road to unification," Xu Yanli said calmly.

"Unification? You're from the Star Luo Empire's royal family? No, the Star Luo Empire isn't that arrogant. You must be from the Sun Moon Realm, right?" Poison Undying slowly stood up, a faint killing intent flashing across his face, but he quickly withdrew it when he thought of that Limit Douluo from just now.

In fact, he didn't have any major hatred with the Sun Moon Empire. If he was given enough benefits and his Body Sect could continue to develop, it might not be a bad idea to transfer it to the Sun Moon Empire.

In fact, he had already realized that if a war were to break out in the future, the Sun Moon Empire would definitely win, unless Shrek Academy could gather another batch of troops...

But he didn't trust the emperors of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Moreover, he clearly remembered the face in front of him; he had seen it before in the Star Luo Empire's royal family—that of the eldest princess.

If the person in front of him were to become the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire, his Body Sect might very well be able to...

“I can agree to your conditions, but I hope my partner is you, not the Sun Moon Empire. Also, it’s not possible for me to shift the entire sect’s focus to the Sun Moon Empire right now,” Poison Immortal said after a moment of silence.

Xu Yanli smiled and said, "Of course. What I need now is the Xiaoyao Pavilion, to have someone to protect me. The status that the Body Sect has now is exactly what I need. At the same time, when there are times when cooperation is needed, I hope to establish good partnerships."

"Okay, is that all?" Poison Undying said after a moment of silence.

"That's all. Oh, right, there's one more." Xu Yanli glanced at Huo Yuhao beside him without turning around, and slowly pushed him forward: "Yuhao, release your martial soul."

A white spirit ring rose from beneath Huo Yuhao's feet, and his eyes shone with light—his spirit spirit eye.

At this moment, Du Bu Si's expression instantly betrayed his true nature. He knew that the more important parts of a martial soul were, the stronger they were, and the eyes…

Chapter 41 A Lucky Mother Accumulates Good Deeds (Please give me some recommendation votes, thank you all, dear readers)

Xu Yanli smiled and said, "This is a child I rescued in the Star Dou Great Forest. His martial soul looks like eyes, but it is actually the brain and eyes. In a sense, it should be considered a top-tier physical martial soul, right?"

“Yes, yes, absolutely.” Poison Immortal’s eyes gleamed as he stepped down from his high position.

“This child is my disciple. I don’t recommend that he have another teacher. What do you think?” Xu Yanli said with a light laugh. “However, it’s a pity that because of his unpleasant childhood and the mutation of his martial soul, his innate soul power is only level one.”

"Hey, we don't care about our original martial soul, but as for the innate soul power, little friend, are you really willing to share half of this disciple with me?" Poison Immortal said somewhat eagerly.

“Of course I don’t mind, but this child still needs to study with me regularly, since soul guidance knowledge is also very important,” Xu Yanli said calmly.

“But at least over the course of a year, you should give me six months’ share, right?” Poisonous Death said seriously.

Xu Yanli looked at Huo Yuhao and asked, "Are you willing to stay here? Your martial spirit can be developed to its fullest extent..."

Huo Yuhao gripped the hem of his clothes, saw Xu Yanli's encouraging gaze, slowly nodded, and said, "Alright, I'll become your disciple."

Poison Immortal laughed excitedly, gently patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder with his thick palm, and said twice, "Good disciple, from today onwards, you are my personal disciple."

After saying that, he turned his gaze to Xu Yanli: "I'll accept you as an ally, but for your mother's sake, kid, don't embarrass her."

"You know my mother too?" Xu Yanli scratched his head in confusion. If his mother was so famous, why was she never mentioned in the original work?

"Alas, what a pity. She was once the most beautiful woman in the world. Many heroes of our Body Sect were infatuated with her back then," Du Busi sighed, but still did not tell him about his mother's deeds.

As dusk approached, Xu Yanli slowly left the Body Sect alone, not just by himself, but also by Long Xiaoyao, who suddenly appeared beside him.

"Do you truly possess the potential to become a god?" Long Xiaoyao asked in a low voice.

Xu Yanli smiled but didn't say anything. Instead, he rented a carriage and sat down to rest with his eyes closed.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Long Xiaoyao didn't ask any more questions, but sat silently to the side.

At that moment, Electrolux's voice echoed in his mind: "Kid, it's time to learn today's lesson."

Xu Yanli breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head helplessly, and slowly entered the sea of ​​consciousness.

Xu Yanli looked at his teacher in front of him and cupped his hands in greeting.

"Here you are. I think you did a pretty good job today, and you were very sincere," Electrolux said with a smile.

Xu Yanli said somewhat helplessly, "I have a feeling... I'm a little..."
