After Ling Ying left, Xiao Xun'er stretched lazily and walked out of her room.
She had originally been a young lady of the Gu Clan, one of the Eight Ancient Clans!
For the sake of her family's mission, she had come to this remote Northwest Continent.
Ever since she had accidentally picked up a diary yesterday, she had constantly received information automatically.
Moreover, its contents had greatly shocked even her, the eldest daughter of the Gu Clan, leaving her with the feeling that she had been a frog at the bottom of a well.
Especially the diary's mention of the Heavenly Flames in Xiao Yan of the Xiao Family's ring, the soul of an Eight-star Alchemist, and now this Great Luo Sword Body!
Xiao Xun'er knew very well that there was no one named Chen Changxin in the Xiao Family.
Yet he knew the Xiao Family like the back of his hand. Such uncanny ability sent chills down even Xiao Xun'er's spine.
She now intended to meet Xiao Yan and confirm whether, just as the diary said, there truly was something extraordinary inside his ring.
"Miss Xiao!" Just then, a seductive voice interrupted Xiao Xun'er's thoughts.
Xiao Xun'er stopped and looked up to see Ya Fei, dressed in a tight red brocade robe, emerging from the Xiao Family's front courtyard.
"Miss Ya Fei!" Xiao Xun'er smiled. "Your visit to the Xiao Family truly honors our humble home!"
"You are too polite, Miss Xiao. I came to the Xiao Family to discuss some business with you." Ya Fei smiled faintly and asked, "What are you going to do, Miss Xiao?"
Discuss business?!
With the Xiao Family's standing, what business could possibly bring the Mietel Auction House to their door personally?
"In that case, we will have to rely on Miss Ya Fei's continued support in the future." Xiao Xun'er smiled slightly, though she was somewhat puzzled by Ya Fei taking the initiative to discuss business with the Xiao Family.
However, such matters were trivial to Xiao Xun'er and not worth dwelling on at all.
With that, Xiao Xun'er passed by Ya Fei and headed toward the residences of the Xiao Family members.
"Oh, Miss Xiao!" Ya Fei called out to stop Xiao Xun'er. "Have you ever heard of the Great Luo Sword Body?"
At those words!
Xiao Xun'er's steps faltered as she looked at Ya Fei in disbelief.
"Could it be that Miss Ya Fei also..."
Before Xiao Xun'er could finish, a pressure of the five elements instantly enveloped her, preventing her from uttering those two words.
It was as though, if she spoke of this matter, she would not be tolerated by the Heavenly Dao and would be slain by heavenly tribulation!
"What?!" Noticing the strange look on Xiao Xun'er's face, Ya Fei gazed at her uneasily. Her lips parted, only to close again.
"It's nothing. There is always a higher heaven beyond heaven, and always someone greater than oneself. Just because we have not heard of something does not mean it does not exist."
Noticing Ya Fei's expression, Xiao Xun'er became even more certain of her suspicions and spoke in Elder Ling's manner.
"I have learned much, Miss Xiao. Farewell!" After pondering for a moment, a satisfied expression appeared on Ya Fei's face as she headed toward the Xiao Family's entrance.
Could she have picked up a diary too?
Otherwise, why would she suddenly ask about the Great Luo Sword Body?
And why had she suddenly visited the Xiao Family?!
Watching Ya Fei's departing figure, Xiao Xun'er was deeply shocked and became even more convinced of her guess.
Looking at the residences of the Xiao Family members before her, Xiao Xun'er hesitated for a moment before turning around and heading back to her own courtyard.
Still, Queen Medusa's surprised expression just now was really adorable. She looked completely captivated by my peerless talent and stunning natural gifts!
If she had not seen it with her own eyes, Medusa would probably have thought I was that salted fish who spent every day slacking off!
Unfortunately, from now on, I will overturn the world's understanding and let them witness what a Great Luo Sword Emperor truly is!
I could clearly make a living off my looks, yet I insist on relying on my talent. That is probably the perfect description of me.
Let's first set a small goal: become a Dou Zong expert within a year!
Upon seeing this, quite a few female leads revealed astonished expressions.
"How is that possible?! He directly broke through from the Dou Shi Realm to Dou Ling in one go? Writing a diary can actually bring such benefits?!"
"And becoming a Dou Zong expert within a year—isn't that far too outrageous?!"
"Although Dou Zong experts are nothing compared to Dou Di, reaching the Dou Zong Realm already makes one a peak existence on the Northwest Continent. Countless prodigies and great figures struggle their entire lives without ever setting foot in that realm..."
In the current Dou Po World, there were countless Forbidden Zones and boundless territories!
The Northwest Continent alone was home to hundreds of trillions of living beings.
Yet those capable of breaking through to become Dou Zong experts were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns, few enough to count on one's fingers.
For a top sect, having even one Dou Zong expert was already remarkable.
Naturally, there were also Forbidden Zones and dynasties where experts gathered, but even in such places, Dou Zong experts were figures of considerable weight and never numerous.
"That boy named Chen Changxin is far too arrogant, isn't he? He actually wants to break through to the Dou Zong Realm within a year?"
Quite a few female leads showed doubtful expressions.
Obviously, most of them did not believe Chen Changxin had that ability.
"Chen Changxin wants to break through to become a Dou Zong expert within a year?" Die looked at the house before her in surprise.
Even her sister, Queen Medusa—
With the resources of the entire Snake People Clan supporting her, cultivating the Snake People Clan's supreme inheritance, and possessing a Companion Snake Spirit that was a Sixth-order Magical Beast, she was still only at the Peak Dou Huang.
Though the Peak Dou Huang and a Dou Zong expert were separated by only half a step—
Die knew that without some other opportunity, even given a hundred years, her sister would be unable to break through to the Dou Zong level.
One had to know!
This was the Northwest Continent.
A barren region of the Dou Qi Continent!
A Dou Huang expert was already the ceiling of combat power.
Aside from those reclusive Dou Zong masters, they could practically swagger across the Northwest Continent.
Queen Medusa alone, as a Peak Dou Huang, was enough to protect the Snake People Clan from humiliation and harm. That alone was sufficient proof of the worth of a Dou Huang expert.
Yet Chen Changxin actually wanted to break through to the Dou Zong level within a year. How was that possible?
No, no, Chen Changxin, Chen Changxin. You had just said you wanted to keep a low profile—how could you be so arrogant?
Reaching the Dou Zong level within a year was still too much.
Seeing this, quite a few of the women finally let out sighs of relief.
Sure enough, how could there be so many freakish geniuses in this world?
The leap from the Dou Ling Realm to a Dou Zong expert in one year was simply too great. Even with a fortuitous encounter, it was hardly realistic.
"What a pity. I was rather looking forward to seeing whether Sister would be stunned on the spot when Chen Changxin became a Dou Zong-level master a year from now."
Die could not help letting out a faint sigh. The excitement in her eyes dimmed slightly as well.
It was as though she would not get to see anything entertaining after all!
As a transmigrator, I should become a Dou Zong expert within half a year no matter what. If I have a Golden Finger like this diary and still can't break through to the Dou Zong level within half a year, Chen Changxin, I might as well smash my head into a block of tofu and die. That would be a disgrace to transmigrators everywhere!
I will become a Dou Zong expert within half a year! By then, even if I ask Queen Medusa to marry me, she won't refuse!
After all, my goal is to marry every beautiful woman in the world. Without formidable strength, how could I possibly achieve that?!
