He Looks Like a Good Kid

"Misty Cloud Sect?"

Xiao Lang casually glanced at the group of people. The silver sword emblem shaped like a cloud on their sleeves was strikingly conspicuous, and his brow furrowed.

He really didn't want any conflict with the Misty Cloud Sect right now.

After all, with his current strength, he was nothing more than an ant before the Misty Cloud Sect.

He wouldn't do anything as foolish as throwing an egg against a rock.

Judging by their formation, were they here to recruit him?

Still, Yun Yun was truly a rare beauty. It was a shame Xiao Yan didn't seize the opportunity back then.

Since that was the case, let big brother bear it all.

Xiao Lang looked at the woman walking at the front, a flicker of imperceptible heat flashing in his eyes.

Everyone appreciates beauty.

No more pretending, I'm laying my cards on the table, I just love beautiful women.

"You must be the third young master of the Xiao family, Xiao Lang, correct?"

At this moment, an elder in white robes walked over with a look of admiration and said to Xiao Lang.

"That's right, I am Xiao Lang. May I ask why the Misty Cloud Sect has come with such a grand display to find an eight-year-old child like me?" Xiao Lang nodded calmly.

Although the Xiao family couldn't afford to offend the Misty Cloud Sect, as long as Xun'er was in the Xiao family, no one would dare to touch them.

This was the foundation of his composure.

"Neither servile nor overbearing, with clear eyes and not the slightest hint of panic. He truly has the makings of greatness," Yun Yun looked at Xiao Lang, her eyes showing satisfaction.

She had come out this time specifically to find a disciple she was pleased with. Originally, she had wanted to take Nalan Yanran from the Nalan family as her disciple. Even though Xiao Yan of the Xiao family had a superior talent, she felt a closer connection to Nalan Yanran, who was also a woman.

However, yesterday she heard that the Xiao family's trash, Xiao Lang, had suddenly advanced overnight from the third stage of Dou Disciple to Dou Practitioner, becoming the youngest Dou Practitioner in the entire Jia Ma Empire. This made her decide to see if it was true.

Now that she saw him, he was indeed an exceptional individual, with a distinguished bearing. He looked like a good child.

"Not only are you beautiful, but you also have excellent judgment."

Xiao Lang looked at Yun Yun and said with admiration:

"If it's possible, Miss, how about we have a drink tonight and talk through the night?"

"……"

Yun Yun's lips twitched, and the smile of approval on her face froze.

Seeing the stark contrast between the silent Xiao Lang and the speaking Xiao Lang, she was momentarily dazed.

Was the composed young man from before the same person as this glib-tongued brat before her?

"Shut up, brat!"

Xiao Zhan saw his son acting up again. He glared at Xiao Lang, then immediately stepped in front of him.

He then said with a smile, "Sect Leader Yun, children can be foolish. I hope you can overlook his childishness."

"Patriarch Xiao is joking. I am an adult, how could I argue with a child? However, your son's personality might not be suitable to be my disciple. I bid you farewell. Sorry for the intrusion." Yun Yun said with a smile.

Compared to talent, she valued character more. Although Xiao Lang was exceptionally talented, a genius who had grown was a true genius. A genius who hadn't grown was just a pile of Kitsuchi.

If Xiao Lang had a calm personality, she might have taken him as a disciple. But with this troublemaking nature, it would be good if he didn't implicate the entire Misty Cloud Sect in the future.

It was only because she had a good temper that she didn't bother with a child. If it were someone else, they might have slapped this loose-lipped brat to death with one palm.

"It's fine. My son is still young, and I feel more at ease keeping him by my side," Xiao Zhan also smiled courteously.

The Misty Cloud Sect was indeed a vast and influential sect with deep foundations. Xiao Lang might have had better development there, but all of that had to be based on the premise that both parties were willing.

Even if the Misty Cloud Sect was willing, as long as Xiao Lang didn't agree, no one could take him away.

Not even a Dou God could do it, that's what I, Xiao Zhan, say!

He was just boasting in his heart, no one would know.

"Wait! You're just leaving like this? You called me up early in the morning, do you know what a huge loss this is for me! Do you know that!"

Xiao Lang was furious when he saw them leaving so abruptly, not playing by the usual rules and desperately trying to keep him.

More importantly, the system's choice hadn't even triggered, and they were leaving? This was a disaster!

"This is a Qi Gathering Powder. It can allow someone at the ninth stage of Dou Disciple to condense a Dou Qi vortex with a hundred percent success rate. Consider it compensation for you."

Yun Yun frowned, and without looking back, she tossed a box that flew steadily into Xiao Lang's hand.

"Sect Leader, this…"

Seeing this, the elder in white robes couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

"No need to say more, let's go." Yun Yun waved her hand, cast a meaningful glance at Xiao Lang, and then turned to leave.

"Nephew Xiao Lang, now that you have condensed your Dou Qi vortex and become a Dou Practitioner, you shouldn't need this Qi Gathering Powder anymore, right? Why not donate it to the family, so the family can have another young Dou Practitioner?"

Seeing that the Misty Cloud Sect had left, the First Elder of the Xiao family immediately walked towards Xiao Lang with a benevolent smile.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Lang, your brother Xiao Yan also has extraordinary talent and will surely be able to condense a Dou Qi vortex on his own, so he definitely won't need it. Why not donate it to someone in need?" The Second Elder also walked over, speaking enthusiastically.

"No way, no way, are the elders of our Xiao family this brainless?"

Xiao Lang looked at the First and Second Elders like they were idiots and said, "I don't think your brains are useful at all. Why don't you donate them to the two pigs in my backyard?"

"You!"

"Alright, let me say something fair."

Just as the First and Second Elders were about to fly into a rage, the Third Elder immediately stepped forward to mediate.

He looked at Xiao Lang and said, "Xiao Lang, I know you're upset, but this Qi Gathering Powder is crucial for whether the Xiao family can gain another young Dou Practitioner. It's a matter of great importance, and you can't act on impulse. As long as you donate it, everyone in the family will remember your contribution."

"Since that's the case, whoever wants it can have it for one million gold coins."

Xiao Lang tossed the box containing the Qi Gathering Powder up and down in his hand.

The gazes of everyone present followed the wooden box holding the Qi Gathering Powder as it went up and down, for fear that it would fall to the ground and the pill would be broken.

"Are you kidding me? One million gold coins?"

The Third Elder frowned.

"You were the one who started joking with me first."

Xiao Lang swept his gaze over the three elders with disdain and said, "Don't think I'm young and don't understand anything. You're just trying to string me along here."

"Before I advanced to become a Dou Practitioner, you all had sour and harsh expressions, calling me trash one after another. Now that you need me, you're trying to string me along, Grandpa?"

"I think all your years of living have been wasted on dogs!"

"This Qi Gathering Powder was given to me by the Misty Cloud Sect, so I can do whatever I want with it."

After speaking, Xiao Lang tossed the box to Xiao Yan, who was standing nearby. "Fourth Brother, although your talent is extraordinary and you're only one major realm behind your third brother, I believe you'll catch up soon. So, take this Qi Gathering Powder. Keep it safe."

"If you fail to condense it the first time, then use it directly the second time. It's just one Qi Gathering Powder. If I don't give it to my own younger brother, should I donate it to the family for some trash?"

After saying that, Xiao Lang put his hands behind his head, whistled, and turned back to his room to continue sleeping.

This was because he had just triggered a system choice.

"Third Brother..."

Xiao Yan looked at the box in his hand, then at Xiao Lang's retreating back, and couldn't help but hug the box tightly. A warm current flowed through his heart.

He naturally knew how valuable this Qi Gathering Powder was, yet his third brother had thrown it to him without even looking. How could he not be moved?

"Xiao Yan..."

"Elders, please leave. This is a gift from my third brother, and I won't give it to anyone!"

Seeing the three elders look at him again, Xiao Yan righteously refused.

The three elders wanted to say something more, but Xiao Zhan, who was standing nearby, stepped forward and said, "Aren't you three enough?"

"..."

Seeing Xiao Zhan step forward, the three elders exchanged glances and finally shut their mouths.

"Demon Brother Who Dotes on Younger Brother System, as expected of you. The frequency of choices triggered when Xiao Yan is present is indeed a bit higher."

Back in his room, Xiao Lang immediately showed an excited expression, rubbed his hands, and looked expectantly at the things the system had just rewarded him with.

Seeking recommendation votes!!! Brothers!!! Thank you!!!
