Yun Yun Smiles, Nalan Is in Trouble

In the Tagor Desert, where yellow sand flies everywhere, there are many temporary havens made up of the bones of huge monsters.

Sandstorms are common in the desert, and the large monster skeletons buried deep underground are information that those who travel in the desert must remember. Otherwise, if they are hit by a sandstorm, unless they are extremely strong, they will be swept away and lose their way.

At this moment, in a rather secluded haven, a cyan light shield enveloped the area, protecting it. The raging sandstorm could not shake this seemingly thin but actually unbreakable sturdy shield.

There were only two people inside the protective shield, a man and a woman, one in a white dress and the other in a white robe. The combination looked rather strange, but it was obvious at a glance that they were a couple.

Looking at the endless yellow sand outside the protective barrier, and then back at Xiao Yuan sitting cross-legged to the side with fluctuating breathing, Yun Yun's eyes clearly showed some worry.

This was the first time she had ever seen someone attempt to break through directly from Seven-Star Dou Master to Da Dou Shi.

Although she could understand it if it happened to Xiao Yuan, she was still shocked and worried about Xiao Yuan.

The fact that the strength of Dou Shi wasn't overwhelmed by such terrifying energy, but instead actually turned it into his own, shows his exceptional talent.

It's a pity that the Misty Cloud Sect didn't discover such a promising talent.

Otherwise, it would be legitimate to bring him into the Misty Cloud Sect. Yun Yun's thoughts were racing, she was thinking about this and that, but she just didn't want to think about the Heavenly Flames.

Xiao Yuan, standing beside him, was completely focused, using the Heavenly Flames to continuously refine the energy and inject it into his Qi Mansion through his meridians.

Some of the energy is absorbed by various parts of the body during this process.

Seven-colored light flickered on his body, like a heartbeat.

As the brightness of the seven-colored light gradually decreased, Xiao Yuan's aura began to grow stronger.

Within the five Qi Mansion, the Dou Qi surged and surged, naturally propelling them towards the Da Dou Shi realm.

At the same time, Xiao Yuan flipped his hand, and a deep yellow pill appeared in his palm.

This is the Di Huang Pill he asked the Yao Lao herbalist to refine during his spare time while he was traveling these past few days.

This is a grade three elixir, with the main Medicinal Herbs being Seven-Leaf Di Huang and supplemented with various other earth-attribute Medicinal Herbs. It contains pure earth-attribute energy, which can help Xiao Yuan break through the limits of the Spleen Yellow Earth Qi Palace, enabling him to successfully advance to become a Da Dou Shi.

As Xiao Yuan Xiao Yuan put the Di Huang Pill into his mouth, a thick earth-attribute Dou Qi gradually appeared on his body, which surprised Yun Yun once again.

Originally, Xiao Yuan already had two Dou Qi attributes, wind and ice, which was already surprising enough, but now he has actually developed a third Dou Qi attribute.

This is truly unbelievable.

But why would someone have three different Dou Qi attributes?

A deep look of doubt flickered in Yun Yun's beautiful eyes.

Buzz! The next moment, an energy wave spread out from Xiao Yuan as the center, like ripples, and finally impacted the cyan light shield, bringing out waves of fluctuations.

Xiao Yuan's aura had finally reached the level of Da Dou Shi. Earthy yellow Dou Qi swirled around him, forming an incredibly protective Douqi Armor.

Then, he slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was Yun Yun's puzzled gaze.

"You, how come you also have earth-attribute Dou Qi?"

Yun Yun blinked and asked inquiringly.

"Hehe, actually it's not just these three types, there are other types of Dou Qi as well."

Since Xiao Yuan could entrust his life to Yun Yun, he naturally wouldn't hide the things that had already been exposed. He then dispelled his Douqi Armor, and with a flick of his wrist, five different types of Dou Qi rose slowly from his palm.

Five kinds?

Looking at the scene before her, Yun Yun's eyes widened, and she exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, it is indeed five types of Dou Qi attributes. That's why I was able to withstand such terrifying energy. My tolerance limit is several times stronger than that of people of the same level."

Xiao Yuan said with a smile.

"Then why didn't you tell me before? I wouldn't have told anyone this so easily either. But why are you telling me now?"

Yun Yun squatted down in front of Xiao Yuan and asked with a gentle expression.

"Hehe, we're practically family. You're wearing my clothes, and I'm wearing the clothes I prepared for you. I saved you once, and you saved me once. We've been through thick and thin together. Besides, Sister Yun, would you ever hurt me?"

Xiao Yuan smiled and replied upon hearing this.

"You trust me that much?"

Yun Yun's lips curled up slightly as she asked with a gentle smile.

"Yes."

Xiao Yuan nodded.

"Then, would you be willing to come back to the Misty Cloud Sect with me?"

Yun Yun then asked.

Although she never mentioned her identity, she believed that Xiao Yuan had probably figured it out long ago.

After all, within the Jia Ma Empire, there is only one female Dou Emperor with the surname Yun: Yun Yun, the current sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect.

Yun Yun hadn't yet realized that the young man she admired was the unlucky fellow who had been jilted by her disciple! "Um, I dare not go."

Xiao Yuan shook his head.

"Why?"

Yun Yun's smile froze slightly as she asked, puzzled.

"I'm afraid that under your protection, I will lose the motivation to move forward."

Xiao Yuan did not fully confess to Yun Yun this time.

There's another reason why he's not going.

He was afraid that Yun Shan would kill him.

After all, that old man was Yun Yun's teacher, and in principle, he should be respected. However, according to Xiao Yuan's calculations, Yun Shan at this point in time had probably already accepted the help of the Soul Hall. Going there would be like walking into a trap. With Yun Yun's strength as a three-star Dou Emperor, she was no match for Yun Shan and naturally couldn't save him either.

Moreover, if I really went, Nalan Yanran's position would be too awkward.

Who exactly is the Young Sect Master? It's not Xiao Yuan who believes him. He himself is already a Da Dou Shi. If a fight were to break out, even Five-Star Dou Grandmaster wouldn't be his match.

If it comes down to a fight to the death, even some Dou Ling might fall to him.

If Xiao Yuan were to encounter Hai Lao again today, he would likely be able to kill Hai Lao with a single Wind Extremes Meteorite Kill.

After all, the Serpent Sealing Technique in Hai Lao's body was personally cast by Medusa, which directly suppressed his strength to the level of Two-Star Dou Ling. Although Hai Lao's combat power was far beyond that of an ordinary Dou Ling due to his profound foundation and skillful Dou Technique, the suppression of his own fighting Dou Qi did indeed greatly limit his performance.

Encountering someone like Xiao Yuan, who is unreasonable and overpowered, is bound to lead to losses.

Nalan Yanran is quite talented, but she is clearly no match for Xiao Yuan.

"Hmm, so you're planning to go to the Jia Nan Academy next?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Yun could tell that Xiao Yuan seemed to have some other unspeakable difficulties. Moreover, his words alone made sense. Given her personality, she certainly couldn't bear to watch Xiao Yuan in danger without offering any help.

But within the Jia Ma Empire, probably no one would dare to refuse her face.

In that case, the effectiveness of Xiao Yuan's training would be far less.

"Okay, although I was prepared, it's still a bit uncomfortable to be rejected by you."

Yun Yun sighed helplessly and said softly.

"By the way, who took the Heavenly Flames?"

Then, she remembered Gu He's important business and casually asked.

"Oh, that's my teacher. His alchemy skills are much better than Gu He's. However, Sister Yun, you must keep it a secret for me. You must not reveal his identity. He came to the Northwest Continent because he was injured. Some of his former enemies are Dou Zong and Dou Zun. The Jia Ma Empire cannot afford to offend him."

Xiao Yuan spoke with a half-serious, half-joking expression.

"Even more powerful than Gu He? Could he be Seventh Grade Alchemist?"

Yun Yun's eyes lit up, and she asked in surprise.

Although she hadn't spent much time with Xiao Yuan Xiao Yuan, she trusted his words quite a bit. In her opinion, if Xiao Yuan was trained by Seventh Grade Alchemist whom she would never see in the Jia Ma Empire, then she would find him very real.

"Yes, but it seems that after the injury, the teacher has not refined Grade 7 Pill again."

Xiao Yuan nodded, looking regretful.

"That's a real shame."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yun nodded in agreement, a hint of disappointment flashing almost imperceptibly in her eyes.

She had originally wanted to ask if Xiao Yuan could make an introduction so that she could try to exchange a Break-Sect Pill for her teacher, Yun Shan, so that her teacher could successfully advance to the Dou Zong level.

Unfortunately, Yun Yun frowned and said, "I remember your teacher already had a Heavenly Flames, right? Why did he still want to steal Medusa's Heavenly Flames?"

"Because he has a disciple, my own younger brother, who has the talent to become an alchemist. And Sister Yun should know how important the Heavenly Flames is to an alchemist, right?"

Xiao Yuan smiled and explained upon hearing this.

"Sigh, well, it seems Gu He is really unlucky this time. He didn't get the Heavenly Flames, and he even gave away a lot of pills because of asking for help."

Yun Yun sighed with some sympathy.

"These things are all about fate. Maybe Gu He and the Heavenly Flames are not destined to be together. Just like me, I never thought about finding Heavenly Flames, but I ended up getting a Heavenly Flames that suits me quite well."

Xiao Yuan shrugged indifferently upon hearing this, then flipped his hand and summoned the Yin Yang Dual Flames.

Looking at the black and white flames rising continuously in Xiao Yuan's hand, Yun Yun was also complicated.

It's truly infuriating to compare oneself to others; the very thing Gu He had been dreaming of had actually appeared in the hands of this young man before him.

Perhaps Xiao Yuan is right; some things are destined to require fate.

In retrospect, it was fate that brought us together!

As she thought about it, Yun Yun's mind was filled with memories of the days she spent with the two of them in the Monster Mountain Range.

Those days were quite nice! However, she was the sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect, carrying the weight of the entire Misty Cloud Sect on her shoulders, while Xiao Yuan was burdened with the mission of reviving his family. Those days were ultimately short-lived.

Unless they can complete their respective tasks, perhaps by then they will be able to live a carefree life.

Thinking of this, Yun Yun began to have designs on Nalan Yanran.

Or, once Nalan Yanran becomes Dou Wang a powerful martial arts master), I could pass on the position of sect leader to her and then focus on my own cultivation. If possible, I could even go out and train with Xiao Yuan, sharing life and death and supporting each other. That would be a good choice! As her thoughts wandered, Yun Yun's lips curved into an inexplicable smile, and she almost burst out laughing.

Nalan Yanran was far away at the Misty Cloud Sect, was cultivating when she inexplicably sneezed.

She opened her eyes with a puzzled look. After cultivating Dou Qi for so many years, it was unlikely that she would catch a cold, given her physical condition. Why was she suddenly sneezing?

Could it be that the teacher is nagging me? That must be it. The teacher is probably nagging me again about whether I've been cultivating properly. It seems I need to work harder and not let the teacher down! "Sister Yun, what are you thinking about? Why are you suddenly smiling like that?"

Seeing Yun Yun's sudden, strange smile, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but wave his hand in front of her and ask in confusion.

"Oh, it's nothing, I just remembered something happy."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yun snapped out of her daze, quickly composed herself, and smiled elegantly.

Then, her eyes swept over Xiao Yuan's white dress, a mischievous glint in them, and she couldn't help but reach out and pinch Xiao Yuan's handsome cheek.

"I didn't expect that the clothes I prepared for me would fit you so well."

Looking at Xiao Yuan, who could be mistaken for a real person with just a little makeup, Yun Yun said with a smile.

"Uh, I almost forgot, I should have changed these clothes!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan snapped out of his daze and was about to unbutton his clothes when Yun Yun grabbed his wrist.

"Hey, wait a minute, change after I leave. This is the first time I've ever seen a man wear women's clothes so naturally. Let me admire him!"

Yun Yun forced a smile and said with a straight face.

But her eyes, which were already almost squinting, had already revealed her true thoughts.

You're clearly trying to make fun of me!

Xiao Yuan rolled his eyes at Yun Yun helplessly, grabbed Yun Yun wrist and pulled her into his arms. He himself was knocked backward by Yun Yun and fell to the ground.

Thus, a strange scene was created: a female sect leader dressed in a nobleman's robe pressing down on a nobleman dressed in a plain white dress.

Feeling the soft, heavy weight against his chest, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

At this moment, Yun Yun was lying on top of Xiao Yuan, their two perfect bodies pressed tightly together by their clothes.

Yun Yun looked down at Xiao Yuan's handsome face so close to hers, and at his dark eyes staring straight at her. She couldn't help but blush. Even though she was on top, she felt a sense of shame, as if she were being pinned down by Xiao Yuan.

But she soon realized that this was beneath her dignity as a female sect leader, so she straightened up, straddled Xiao Yuan, and looked down at Xiao Yuan with a scrutinizing gaze.

However, Xiao Yuan's perspective was different. In his view, while the pretty face that pretended to scrutinize was charming, it was far less captivating than the two Misty Cloud Mountain that undulated slightly with each breath.

Logically speaking, if a man is on top of a woman, he will naturally want to take control and become the master.

But Xiao Yuan is different.

He prefers to be passive.

So he returned Ren Qingcai's look with a straight-up glance.

Yun Yun couldn't hold back anymore.

How could she dare to actually do those strange things! Originally, she was thinking of making Xiao Yuan back down, but if this continued, Xiao Yuan would probably be stiff as a board, while she would be weak in the knees!

"Shameless scoundrel!"

Yun Yun glared at Xiao Yuan and scolded him.

"Look, you're on top of me in this position, and our clothes are on backwards. I'm in a good mood, so I'll just go along with your performance!"

Xiao Yuan immediately thickened his skin to the point that even a Dou Imperial Capital (a powerful figure in the martial arts world) couldn't penetrate it, and said with righteous indignation.

"You!"

Yun Yun was at a loss for words. If it were Gu He, who was older and of decent appearance, who was making such a gesture, she would probably have vomited on the spot.

But it was Xiao Yuan, who was younger than him and handsome, whom she not only didn't dislike, but actually quite liked his cheeky attitude.

"Alright, get up quickly. The sandstorm has passed. I have to go back. I've wasted a lot of time watching over your cultivation. I'm worried that Gu He others will come looking for us."

As Yun Yun spoke, she pulled Xiao Yuan to his feet.

"Well, I also have something to do, I need to hurry back to Shi Mo City."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan became more serious, abandoning his previous frivolousness, and nodded earnestly.

"By the way, there's Alchemist Convention in the Imperial Capital this year. Since your brother is an alchemist, he'll probably be participating, right? You should be going too? Perhaps we can meet in the Imperial Capital later."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yun nodded and then asked with a smile.

"Yes, I will go. By the way, I'll let you in on the fact that my younger brother will definitely be the champion of this tournament."

Xiao Yuan smiled, his words carrying a hint of pride.

"Oh? So confident? Is your younger brother a genius like you?"

Seeing the pride on Xiao Yuan's face, Yun Yun asked with great curiosity.

"Hehe, to put it simply, the two of us brothers Dou Emperor potential!"

Xiao Yuan smiled and said confidently.

"Dou Di."

Hearing Xiao Yuan's arrogant words, Yun Yun was somewhat lost in thought.

This continent hasn't produced Dou Di for many years.

But the young man before me did not show any arrogance on his face, but rather a confidence in himself and a firm belief in his goal.

Such a young man is truly captivating.

Even she, a Dou Huang expert, had to admit that given time, Xiao Yuan, even if he didn't become Dou Di, would definitely stand at the very top of the continent.

And she wanted to stand by his side at that time.

"Then I look forward to the day you become Dou Di!"

A moment later, Yun Yun, Nalan Yanran, her gaze towards Xiao Yuan becoming even softer.
