Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Taking Xun'er as a Wife, Xiao Yan is Enraged.

  "System, the timing of your mission release is really precise!"

  Xiao Bai couldn't help but complain in his heart.

  In the novel, Ya Fei is one of Xiao Yan's confidantes.

  She met Xiao Yan during her training in Wutan City and considered him the most valuable treasure she had discovered, so she befriended him.

  This person is exceptionally intelligent and incomparably charming. Taking her as a concubine won't be so simple!

  However, the mission reward is seventh-grade alchemist experience!

  You must know that in the entire Jia Ma Empire, among all the thousands of living beings, not a single seventh-grade alchemist has ever been born!

  The number one alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire, Pill King Gu He, is only a sixth-grade alchemist, yet his status is already extraordinary, let alone a seventh-grade alchemist.

  "Nothing ventured, nothing gained!"

  Xiao Bai smiled faintly to himself, not flustered at all.

  He had already begun to think about how to win over Ya Fei.

  You can't touch a tiger's backside, but he had to enter Ya Fei's tiger's den.

  While pondering...

  Xiao Bai suddenly sensed the terrifying killing intent emanating from Ling Ying in the shadows, an intent that seemed to crush everything, and his mind jolted.

  Ah,

  Xun'er's words weren't easy to answer!

  A slight misstep, and he was in grave danger.

  Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into Xiao Bai's mind.

  Play dumb!!!

  This was undoubtedly an excellent method!

  After all, he was only seven years old on the surface, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was completely oblivious.

  Of course, he wouldn't admit that he was actually almost eighteen.

  Ding!

  [If a girl nurtured by the host's Kun character technique is taken as a wife, an additional system reward will be granted!]

  "Isn't nurturing and massaging enough? Why do I have to take her as a wife?"

  "No way!? Are you trying to make me go down the multi-female lead route?"

  "I, Xiao Bai, was completely innocent in my past life, I've never even touched a girl's hand, would I do such a thing?"

  Xiao Bai's eyes shone brightly, and his handsome face exuded an aura of unparalleled strength.

  He gently stroked Xiao Xun'er's nose, saying indulgently, "This massage technique is exclusive to Xun'er. Brother Xiao Bai would never use it on anyone else."

  He meant it sincerely.

  The moment he completed the thousandth warming treatment, the second level of the Kun character technique awakened.

  The second level of the Kun character technique not only strengthened the first level but also added several new massage techniques.

  He could indeed leave this massage technique to Xun'er, but as for the other massage techniques… he hadn't agreed.

  "Brother Xiao Bai… you're so kind."

  Xiao Xun'er's eyes flickered, and a shy blush appeared on her pretty face, like a blooming lotus, pure and beautiful.

  This scene completely stunned Ling Ying, who was hiding in the shadows.

  How dare he touch the young lady! He's courting death!

  "Bastard! How dare you be so disrespectful to the young lady!"

  Ling Ying clenched his fists, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

  If Xiao Xun'er hadn't signaled him to stop at the crucial moment, he probably would have already rushed out and torn Xiao Bai to pieces.

  The intense killing intent surrounding them startled Xiao Bai, but he was a man of many experiences… no, a man of many trials and tribulations, how could he be frightened by mere killing intent?

  Xiao Bai smiled gently and said, "You rest well, your brother Xiao Bai will go back first."

  Now that he had completely merged with the Ancient Sacred Body, he couldn't wait to go back and experience the extraordinary nature of this physique.

  After all, it was known as the strongest battle body of the human race!

  Upon hearing this, Xiao Xun'er's eyes revealed a hint of reluctance.

  But thinking that Xiao Bai had exhausted himself helping her nourish her bones and qi, she still obediently nodded and sweetly said, "Mmm~"

  "Brother Xiao Bai, you should rest well too!"

  …

  In the shadows.

  "Sigh~"

  Ling Ying's face was full of bitterness and helplessness.

  Three years of nourishing her meridians, although it had indeed greatly improved her young lady's talent, had also stolen her heart.

  This deal, no matter how you looked at it, was a huge loss!

  …

  …

  …

  "Didn't you say there would be an extra reward for taking Xiao Xun'er?"   

  "Where is she!?"

  Xiao Bai asked impatiently as soon as he returned to his room.

  Anything the system provides is guaranteed to be top-notch!

  Even a random reward would greatly benefit his future cultivation.

  *Ding!*

  [The host has not yet paired with Xiao Xun'er, the task is not complete, please continue your efforts.]

  "Pair!?"

  Xiao Bai was dumbfounded.

  What pairing?

  Wait!

  Xiao Bai's mind jolted, and wicked images instantly flashed through his mind.

  Damn!

  So, taking her as a wife means doing *that* kind of thing?!

  Damn!

  Xiao Bai rolled his eyes.

  Xiao Xun'er is still just a baby, how could she possibly do *that* kind of thing?

  There's no point in thinking about it anymore, he simply ignored it.

  Xiao Bai sighed, sat upright on the bed, and closed his eyes to meditate.

  *Buzz—

  * Xiao Bai felt his physical body strengthen several times over, endless golden blood surging, and his power increased several times over.

  Moreover, the speed at which he condensed his Dou Qi had increased significantly, essentially raising his cultivation talent to a terrifying level.

  "Dou Qi, Eighth Stage!"

  Xiao Bai smiled faintly, quite satisfied.

  Steady progress was his cultivation strategy; he wasn't in a hurry.

  However, although only at the eighth stage, he felt he could already compete with some of the Xiao Clan disciples at the Dou Zhe level.

  With this thought in mind,

  Xiao Bai focused his mind and began cultivating again.

  The Dou Qi required for the breakthrough of the Ancient Sacred Body was considerably more than that of a normal cultivator, so he couldn't be too lax.   ... ... ...

  A

  soft

  ,   muffled sound quietly echoed within Xiao Yan's body.   With the sound, the feeling of desperate resistance that had exhausted Xiao Yan vanished. Letting out   a heavy sigh of relief, Xiao Yan collapsed, his chest heaving as he lay in the courtyard. Sensing the abundant energy within his body, a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.   A moment later...   His smile gradually widened, finally turning into a soft chuckle, then a loud laugh, then a maniacal roar…   "Four years!"   "A full four years!"   "I've finally advanced to Dou Zhe!!!"   Xiao Yan's eyes were bloodshot, filled with excitement.   For the past four years, he hadn't spent a single day in arduous training, all for the sake of advancing to Dou Zhe and crushing Xiao Bai!   He gazed at the distant place where Xiao Bai lived and said coldly, "The clan test this afternoon!"   "I, Xiao Yan, will crush him in front of the entire clan."   After saying this, Xiao Yan slowly walked out of the courtyard and asked the Xiao clan guard beside him, "Where is Xiao Bai now?"   "Xiao Bai is currently in the Jade Immortal Pavilion, embracing… Xiao Xun'er while admiring the lotus." The guard replied.   "What!?"   Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's face instantly darkened, his fists clenching tightly.   Over the years, he had tried to approach Xiao Xun'er many times, only to be ignored and neglected.   Even though he had used all the top-tier flirting skills from his previous life, he still couldn't attract Xiao Xun'er's attention, and was even mocked for being childish!   This was intolerable!   This afternoon, I'll show you what a true genius is!   Who is Xun'er's true love!!!   "Notify Xiao Bai that he must participate in the clan's test this afternoon!"   "If he dares to be absent, he will be expelled from the Xiao family!"   ...   (End of Chapter)
