Could Xiao Xun'er's heart really be made of stone?
Of course Xiao Xun'er's heart was not made of stone.
She was indeed deeply moved by Xiao Long's words. She did not know why he was able to speak such devoted words.
However, she considered Xiao Long's confession to be nothing more than a joke!
Who was she? The daughter of the Ancient Clan's patriarch, one of the eight great ancient clans of the Dou Qi Continent. A peerless prodigy praised as someone with the potential to become the Dou Qi Continent's new Dou Di! She would become an emperor for the ages and stand at the pinnacle of the world!
And who was Xiao Long? A minor character from the Xiao Family.
Although the Xiao Family had indeed once been glorious, with overall strength surpassing even the Ancient Clan, so what? That was all in the past!
The present Xiao Family was merely a small clan in the Jia Ma Empire, and the Jia Ma Empire itself was only a third-rate force on the Dou Qi Continent. If the Ancient Clan casually sent over a clansman whose bloodline had awakened, they could wipe out the Jia Ma Empire.
In Xiao Xun'er's eyes, she was a phoenix in the heavens. Though Xiao Long had the word "dragon" in his name, he was nothing more than a worm to her.
How could a phoenix and a worm possibly belong to the same world?
Xiao Xun'er had ambitions higher than the heavens. She believed only a Nine Heavens True Dragon could be her other half, and that Nine Heavens True Dragon had yet to appear.
Even Xiao Yan only counted as half of one!
Xiao Long counted as nothing at all!
That was why she laughed at Xiao Long's ignorance!
"Finished? If you're done, then get ready for a beating!"
Xiao Xun'er gave a cold smile. In her view, for her to personally beat Xiao Long was already a blessing he had cultivated over several lifetimes!
"Xiao Xun'er, don't get smug. Do you dare make a bet with me?"
Seeing that Xiao Xun'er had no intention of letting the matter go, Xiao Long could only change tactics.
He would stall for time!
That was right, he planned to stall Xiao Xun'er and tell her they would fight at the coming-of-age ceremony.
After all, this sort of trick was a method often used by righteous protagonists, and it never failed.
Those villains were pitifully stupid and always agreed.
Then that period of time became the protagonist's chance to rise, while the villain became the protagonist's stepping stone.
Xiao Long planned to use the same method to spur Xiao Xun'er on.
Sure enough, this trick never failed!
"Oh? What are we betting on?"
Xiao Xun'er seemed to have developed a tiny bit of interest.
"Do you dare fight me again at the next Clan Trial? You and I will both use our own strength. If I lose, I'll apologize to Xiao Yan. If you lose, you'll have to agree to one condition of mine that you consider reasonable! How about it?"
The next Clan Trial was two months away.
The Misty Cloud Sect would also send people to that Clan Trial. Xiao Yan would annul his marriage, then begin his path of rising to greatness!
He wanted to drag things out until then, then use the system to level up!
He refused to believe that, with the system's help, he still would not be able to deal with Xiao Xun'er!
"Sure!" A brilliant smile appeared on Xiao Xun'er's face.
In her eyes, this was merely Xiao Long's final struggle.
But it did not matter. As long as it made Xiao Long wholeheartedly apologize to her Brother Xiao Yan, she was willing to do anything.
At that moment, the smiling Xiao Xun'er brought her peerless beauty to its very peak.
Every smile and frown tugged at Xiao Long's heart. Xiao Long could not help but sigh again.
Xiao Yan, Laozi hates you!
What a lovely, tender cabbage! What a pity!
Who would have thought that Xiao Xun'er noticed this again? The smile on her face immediately vanished.
It was replaced by fury!
Just now, she had been considering sparing Xiao Long. But it seemed she had been worrying for nothing. She took out a whip from her Storage Ring, flicked it, and slowly approached Xiao Long.
"Hey, Cousin Xun'er, what are you doing? Don't come any closer, or don't blame me for getting rough! Damn it, Dragon Claw Hand!"
"Ah!"
Very soon, pig-slaughtering screams rang out from the Xiao Family once more...
"Damn Xiao Xun'er! One day, I will repay today's whipping a hundredfold!"
Inside Xiao Long's room, he lay on the bed with a brush in hand, copying out these Dou Techniques.
From time to time, painful groans escaped his mouth.
Powerful System
After copying for three hours, Xiao Long finally made copies of fifteen Yellow-grade Low-level Dou Techniques and three Yellow-grade Intermediate Dou Techniques. He placed them in his shop and began selling them.
