"Xun'er, don't learn how to lie!"

"Got it, got it." Xiao Xun'er smiled, looking nothing like someone who understood.

"There's nothing I can do about you!"

"What was Xiao Yan trying to do just now?"

Bai Xiaoran thought for a moment. "He probably just wanted to catch you, but I got there first."

"Hmph, I didn't want him to catch me." Xiao Xun'er said.

After leaving the Training Ground, they made their way back to the room.

Meanwhile, on the back mountain of the Xiao Family.

"I told you long ago not to meddle in the affairs of those two sisters." Old Yao stood with his hands behind his back.

"I only wanted to catch Xun'er just now. Who knew Brother Xiaoran would be even faster than me?" Xiao Yan said.

"He learned a Dou Technique and reached the Dou Zhe realm, so of course he'd be faster than you. Even this old man has never seen a man more feminine than a woman."

Over the countless years he had lived, from becoming an Eighth-Rank Alchemist to being betrayed by his own traitorous disciple, Han Feng.

Not to mention all the people he had seen, but he had truly never encountered anyone like Bai Xiaoran.

"How wonderful it would be if I could win their hearts. Brother Xiaoran's beauty is simply even more stunning than Xun'er's." Xiao Yan chuckled.

"You still want to embrace both of them? Even this old man has never enjoyed such treatment. If there's a chance, I'd like to meet her."

"Then hurry up and teach me Alchemy, so I can show off in front of Brother Xiaoran."

Old Yao paused. "He is a boy!"

"But didn't you just call them two sisters? Deep down, you already see him as a girl." Xiao Yan retorted.

"This old man doesn't know. I'd better teach you Alchemy instead."

Inside the room, Bai Xiaoran continued comprehending the Subtle Shadow Steps. He was only a step away from mastering it.

"Brother Xiaoran's comprehension is too monstrous!"

After breaking through to the Dou Zhe realm, he had started to change.

"Ling Ying, do you have any Dou Techniques related to comprehension? Let Brother Xiaoran learn more."

"Learning so many won't be of any use!"

Xiao Xun'er held out a finger and smiled faintly. "You can never have too many skills. So, do you have any more Dou Techniques?"

"Qi Manifestation Fist. Condense qi within the body and attach it to the palm, allowing you to unleash double the attack power."

After handing it to Xiao Xun'er, Ling Ying added, "Miss Bai—no, Young Master Bai—could also learn Alchemy. On the Dou Qi Continent, Alchemists are highly respected."

"I'll ask Brother Xiaoran later. As for the Alchemist invited by the Jia Lie Family, I don't need to say more for you to understand!"

"Young Master Bai isn't..."

Xiao Xun'er said, "You should listen to me, not to Brother Xiaoran's orders."

"Yes, Miss." Ling Ying turned and left.

A moment later, Bai Xiaoran opened his eyes. His body swayed, and he flashed to the doorway at incredible speed, leaving faint afterimages behind him.

"Brother Xiaoran, you've already mastered it!"

"Yes, it was like a sudden flash of insight."

Xiao Xun'er took out a Dou Technique. "This is for you. Qi Manifestation Fist—an offensive-type Dou Technique."

"Where did this come from now?"

"Oh, Brother Xiaoran, don't worry about where it came from. Just accept whatever Xun'er gives you."

Bai Xiaoran put it into his Storage Ring and smiled happily. "Then thank you, Xun'er."

Uncle Ling Ying has quite a lot of Dou Techniques.

"As long as Brother Xiaoran likes it."

Xiao Xun'er stared at Bai Xiaoran's lips. What do Brother Xiaoran's lips taste like? I really want to try them. Thinking of how shy Bai Xiaoran had looked at the Training Ground stirred her desire to conquer him.

"Brother Xiaoran, let's go out for a walk. Staying in the Xiao Family every day is getting stifling."

Without another word, Xiao Xun'er took Bai Xiaoran's soft little hand and led him out of the Xiao Family.

"Isn't that the Xiao Family's pair of beauties?"

"What are you talking about? That's the Xiao Family's Young Master Bai. He just looks like a woman."

"Looks like one? That's clearly a woman!"

Quite a few people drank and chatted in the shadows. Bai Xiaoran was very uncomfortable with so many people staring at him.

"Miss Xun'er, we meet again."

"Jia Lie Ao, what are you doing here?" Xiao Xun'er looked at the skinny Jia Lie Ao before her, who had yet to break through to the Dou Zhe realm.

Every time she went out, this guy would block her way.

Jia Lie Ao smiled and was about to continue speaking when he glanced to the side. That single glance made him frown.

"Who is this young lady? She is so beautiful!"

Bai Xiaoran said, "I'm a boy, not a girl. You've mistaken me for someone else."

"Impossible. I, Jia Lie Ao, have seen countless women. I can tell at a glance whether someone is a woman." Jia Lie Ao snapped his fan shut.

He had never expected Miss Xun'er to have such a beautiful sister.

"Get lost! Brother Xiaoran is a boy."

Xiao Xun'er had a terrible headache from Jia Lie Ao's relentless pestering.

That was why she had never brought Bai Xiaoran along whenever she went shopping.

And so, upon seeing Bai Xiaoran for the first time, Jia Lie Ao immediately showed his clingy, pestering side.

A guard following beside him said, "Young Master Jia Lie, he really is a boy. He just looks like a girl."

"There's such a good thing? The more likely I am to win his favor, the better."

The maid froze. Had Young Master not heard what he said? He was a boy.

Bai Xiaoran had no desire to get entangled with Jia Lie Ao. He grabbed Xun'er's little hand and left.

"He ran pretty fast."

Jia Lie Ao chuckled. "Go investigate him. I want all the information you can find on him."

After arriving elsewhere, Xiao Xun'er said unhappily, "If that guy dares do it again, I wouldn't mind wiping out his family."

"Just teach him a lesson. Once he knows pain, he'll know fear."

Xiao Xun'er pointed ahead. "There happens to be an auction house up ahead. Let's see if there's anything interesting."

Before Bai Xiaoran could react, Xiao Xun'er had already dragged him into the auction house.

"Two young ladies, the main entrance to the auction house is on the right. This way leads to the area for auctioning items."

"Alright," Xiao Xun'er said.

Just after the two left, a woman came over and asked, "Who was that just now?"

"Two young ladies. Their clothes and appearance suggest they're from prominent families. We can keep an eye on them later."

"I understand. You may close this door. Once today's auction is over, no one else should be coming."

"Yes!"

After the woman left, the maid shut the door to the room.

Xiao Xun'er and Bai Xiaoran arrived at the auction hall.

"Let's find somewhere hidden to sit!"

"Brother Xiaoran, are you afraid people will discover you?"

Bai Xiaoran denied it. "I'm not!"

"Yes, yes, Brother Xiaoran definitely isn't."

So cute. I wonder if there are any items Brother Xiaoran can use.

They sat in a spot at the very top, looking down at the auction that had yet to begin. Yet the place was already packed.

The Mite'er Family's auction house really had a lot of people.

Before long, as the lights dimmed, a single bright beam shone upon the center.

"Welcome, everyone, to this auction. The final item today is something you all need."

A mature and elegant woman stepped into the center.

The moment she appeared, everyone's eyes widened.

"Only Miss Ya Fei can truly feast our eyes!"
