Battle Through the Heavens: There Are Always Rebellious Disciples Who Want to Deceive Their Master — Part 42

Old Yao had already pricked up his ears at the side, eavesdropping as well.

Seeing the guarded expression on her Third Brother's face, Xiao Yue no longer wanted to tease him and spoke directly.

"The method was rather strange, and I don't really understand the exact principle behind it. If it doesn't satisfy you, Third Brother, please don't be disappointed."

The growth in her strength was impossible to replicate.

She might be somewhat guarded around others, but when it came to her Third Brother, she felt there was no need.

She believed in her Third Brother's character!

"Go ahead. No matter what you say, I can accept the final result."

How could Xiao Yan possibly have any objections?

It was already improper to pry into someone else's secrets. Since she was willing to tell him the truth, what more could he ask for?

"Speaking of the increase in my strength, I have to mention what happened when I visited the Market yesterday..."

Xiao Yue then recounted the general course of events that had taken place at the Market yesterday.

She knew that such a huge change in her would definitely prompt many people who cared about her to ask questions, so she could share the general circumstances.

Of course, she still concealed certain things, such as Uncle.

Although she trusted her Third Brother greatly, that did not mean she would tell him everything.

Xiao Yan's Questions (2)

Xiao Yan grew more and more shocked as he listened from the side.

Could someone's luck really be that good?

A woman's sixth sense was truly something else!

His younger sister was incredible.

He had gone to the Market today as well. With Old Yao's help, he had obtained a Mysterious Tier Dou Technique, and he had originally thought his luck was already excellent.

But compared to his younger sister, what did that amount to?

According to her, not only had her strength increased, but even her talent seemed to have changed—and for the better.

Could an ordinary person really obtain such an opportunity?

Xiao Yan desperately wanted to shout, "My younger sister has the potential to become a Dou Emperor!"

"Third Brother, don't you think my experience was amazing?

Isn't it a little hard to believe?

Honestly, even I feel that it doesn't seem real."

The more Xiao Yue said, the wider Xiao Yan's mouth opened. Seeing her Third Brother staring blankly in astonishment, Xiao Yue found it especially amusing.

His expression clearly showed how shocked he was.

She wondered whether Xiao Yan believed what she was saying.

After all, the whole process was indeed a little unbelievable, practically like something from the storybooks she had read.

Although Xiao Yan was stunned at the moment, he actually believed what his younger sister had said.

After all, she had no reason to lie to him.

Some things might sound extraordinarily unexpected, yet they could still be the truth!

For a Dou Zhe at the Dou Qi stage, rapid advancement was not something that could happen under ordinary circumstances!

The bodies and meridians of Dou Zhe at the Dou Qi stage were simply too fragile. Aside from special circumstances, they had no way to advance quickly.

Not only had his younger sister's strength increased without causing the slightest damage to her foundation, it had even further solidified it. This was practically a miracle.

"Ah...

Your experience really was bizarre, younger sister!

I originally thought I might be able to learn from you and improve my own strength, but now it seems I was overthinking things."

Xiao Yan was happy for his younger sister, but he also felt somewhat dejected for himself.

In the end, he would still have to cultivate step by step through his own efforts!

Still, it did not matter. With Old Yao around, he should be able to achieve his goals.

"Don't overthink it, Third Brother. I believe you'll definitely soar to great heights in the future!

You don't need to worry about anything else, either. If anything really happens, I'll protect you from now on!"

Xiao Yue was not trying to comfort her Third Brother. She was simply speaking the truth.

Her Third Brother's talent had already returned, so what was there to worry about?

Besides, Uncle had once said that her Third Brother's future was immeasurable.

Therefore, in the near future, her Third Brother would definitely soar to great heights!

As for that last sentence, she had purely said it to show off in front of her Third Brother!

But if anything really did happen, she would absolutely protect her Third Brother. No one could bully him!

If, three years from now, her Third Brother could not defeat Nalan Yanran, then she would compete in his place!

No one could bully her family!

Absolutely no one!

"Really? Then I'll borrow your good wishes!

Still, I believe in myself too. By then, I should be able to protect myself!"

Although he did not know why his younger sister had so much confidence in him, hearing her words still made him very happy.

He also felt that he could soar to great heights in the future. With Old Yao around, he had confidence in his heart.

As for having his younger sister protect him, he simply could not bear that humiliation!

If he had truly wanted someone to protect him, he would not have refused when Xun'er had offered to protect him back then.

He had not agreed when he was dejected before, and now that he was confident, he would not agree either.

He wondered whether he would ever be able to surpass his younger sister.

Although Xiao Yan believed he could protect himself, he was still far from certain whether he could surpass his younger sister.

"Third Brother, we've discussed just about everything. If there's nothing else you want to ask, I'll be leaving first!"

It was getting dark. It was time to return and get some proper rest.

Tomorrow's training was still waiting for her!

If she did not rest well, tomorrow's training would probably be ruined!

She had to recover her energy and await tomorrow's training!

After seeing Xiao Yan nod, Xiao Yue did not think much of it and left directly.

The next moment, a transparent, elderly figure floated into the air.

"Teacher, why did you come out?"

Upon seeing the figure, Xiao Yan casually called out.

He was still slightly surprised.

Under normal circumstances, unless he called for Old Yao, the latter rarely came out on his own. Yet he had actually come out today? And he seemed rather anxious?

"What? Can't I come out and have a look?"

What kind of nonsense was this brat saying?

Did he need to report to this brat whenever he wanted to leave the ring?

"Hehe, Teacher, what do you think of my younger sister's talent? And do you think the experiences she described were all true?"

Although he believed it all to be true, he still wanted to hear Old Yao's opinion.

Old Yao had lived a long time and was widely experienced, so he should be better able to judge whether what his younger sister said was true.

Whether it was true or false did not matter, as long as it did not affect his younger sister!

"What your younger sister encountered truly was rather extraordinary!"

Even Old Yao could not help secretly marveling at Xiao Yue's experience.

Could someone's luck really be that good?

"What happened to your younger sister is something I have never experienced, nor even heard of. Still, there have been similar circumstances before. It truly is quite remarkable!"

The sudden surge in strength reminded Old Yao of something. When the bloodlines of the various Imperial Clans awakened, their strength seemed to undergo a sharp increase as well.

However, there were some differences!

When their bloodlines awakened, their strength was already considerable.

Yet Xiao Yan's younger sister had experienced such a surge while still at the Dou Qi stage. That was simply absurd!

Although there were similarities, the gap between them was still rather large!

"Teacher, what exactly is going on?"

Xiao Yan was itching with curiosity.

He wanted to know what similar matter Old Yao was referring to.

But he was clearly going to be disappointed!

Old Yao shook his head without offering any further explanation.

"You brat, stop thinking about all sorts of nonsense. It's better to keep your feet on the ground and cultivate properly!

You've bought the medicinal ingredients too. In a while, I'll refine a batch for you.

Under my training, along with your own efforts, it won't actually be too difficult for your strength to rise quickly!

I hope you'll work harder when the time comes!"
