Wutan City.
Xiao Family.
Inside the clan leader's study.
Xiao Zhan sat in his chair while the two brothers, Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan, stood quietly before him.
Xiao Fan had been ruthless with Gale Ao, so he naturally knew the Ga Lie Family would not let the matter rest. After returning, he had taken the initiative to find Xiao Zhan and tell him that he had crippled Gale Ao.
Xiao Yan said he would share responsibility with Xiao Fan, so he had come to see Xiao Zhan alongside him.
As for Xiao Xun'er, after returning to the Xiao Family, Xiao Fan had sent her back to cultivate.
After learning that Xiao Fan had crippled Gale Ao, Xiao Zhan frowned deeply. "Fan'er, you've always been steady and composed. Why were you so impulsive this time?"
Xiao Fan truly had been steady, because he knew the Dou Qi Continent was dangerous, and he had previously lacked any cheat or confidence.
But now that he had two cheats, Xiao Fan's strength had soared, and he had to change the way he handled certain matters.
Xiao Fan had now reached the strength of a Six-Star Dou Ling. He could easily sweep through the Ga Lie Family, so naturally, he had nothing to fear.
Xiao Fan said, "If others don't provoke me, I won't provoke them. Gale Ao specifically had people block my path and wanted to break both my legs. If I hadn't recently broken through to the Dou Master realm, he would have succeeded."
"Since Gale Ao wanted to break my legs, there was no reason for me to go easy on him! I told you about this because I hope the family will quickly prepare defenses against the Ga Lie Family, so the Xiao Family won't be caught off guard if they target us."
Xiao Zhan had only been focused on the possible conflict between the Xiao Family and the Ga Lie Family, so he had overlooked the crucial point.
Hearing Xiao Fan's words now, he abruptly rose from his chair and exclaimed in delight, "Fan'er, did you say you've already broken through to the Dou Master realm?"
Before Xiao Fan could answer, Xiao Yan said from the side, "Father, Third Brother didn't just break through to the Dou Master realm. He also easily seriously injured a Dou Master Supplicant from the Ga Lie Family."
Xiao Zhan burst into laughter. "Good! As expected of my, Xiao Zhan's, son! An Eighteen-Year-Old Dou Master—he's an exceptionally rare genius even in the entire Jia Ma Empire!"
Seeing Xiao Zhan's excited expression, Xiao Fan could not help curling his lip.
It was only the strength of a Dou Master. Was that really worth such shock? If he revealed his Six-Star Dou Ling cultivation, who knew how stunned he would be.
Of course, Xiao Fan had no intention of revealing all his cultivation directly.
After laughing for a while, Xiao Zhan calmed himself and said coldly, "Gale Ao was the one who provoked Fan'er this time. He deserved to be injured by you! If that old fool Gale Bi dares start a war between our two clans, then our Xiao Family has nothing to fear!"
Xiao Fan smiled. "That's good. I'll leave the matter of dealing with the Ga Lie Family to you, Father. I'll return to cultivate first."
Xiao Zhan waved a hand. "Go. Don't leave the house for the time being, lest the Ga Lie Family panic and secretly send experts to deal with you."
"I understand," Xiao Fan replied, then turned and left the study, heading back to his residence.
"Father, I'll go back and cultivate too," Xiao Yan said to Xiao Zhan after seeing Xiao Fan leave.
Xiao Zhan glanced at his youngest son, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself. After a long moment, he sighed. "Go."
Xiao Zhan still did not know that Xiao Yan's talent had returned and that he was about to soar completely, which was why he sighed.
Xiao Yan did not reveal anything. He gave Xiao Zhan a slight bow, then left as well.
Meanwhile, after returning to his room, Xiao Fan thought for a moment and checked the Chat Group Shop again.
What Xiao Fan wanted most now was to earn Points as quickly as possible to improve his strength.
However, the strength of a Six-Star Dou Ling was still somewhat lacking on the Dou Qi Continent. To be safe, Xiao Fan had no plans to go out and capture Magical Beasts or plunder cultivation techniques for the time being.
So, Xiao Fan turned his attention to the Chat Group Shop.
Xiao Fan planned to purchase some cultivation techniques from the Chat Group Shop, then use his Heaven-Defying Comprehension to deduce and create even stronger techniques, thereby earning the difference in Points!
"Hm? Aside from the cultivation techniques and items uploaded by group members, only five items from the shop's original stock can be randomly refreshed each day?"
However, after carefully studying the Chat Group Shop, Xiao Fan discovered that his plan would fall through!
"Ugh, what a scam! Looks like I can only wait for the chat group to gain more new members, then deduce the group members' cultivation techniques to obtain rewards."
After complaining for a while, Xiao Fan checked the five items refreshed in the shop today. Finding none of them useful, he immediately stopped paying attention to the shop.
Just then, Xiao Fan sensed that someone had @ mentioned him in the Myriad Worlds Chat Group, so he checked the group chat messages.
Myriad Worlds Chat Group, Chat Interface
Huang Rong: @Xiao Fan, @Yan Lingji, Young Master Xiao, Yan Lingji, I've already discussed it with my father. You can come over to visit whenever you want.
Yan Lingji: Sure, sure! I want to go right now. I've never been to another world before.
After glancing at the chat group messages, Xiao Fan immediately replied to Huang Rong.
Xiao Fan: @Huang Rong, if it's convenient, we can go now. It's almost lunchtime, so we can also get a taste of Miss Huang's cooking. Looking forward to it.
Huang Rong: All right. I'll invite you to the world I'm in now. Just accept it.
Very soon, Xiao Fan and Yan Lingji both received prompts from the chat group. Naturally, neither of them hesitated to accept.
Eagle Shooting World.
Peach Blossom Island.
Huang Yaoshi and Huang Rong stood in the middle of a peach grove, waiting for Xiao Fan and Yan Lingji to arrive.
When Huang Rong had first told Huang Yaoshi about the Myriad Worlds Chat Group, Huang Yaoshi had thought she had a fever and was hallucinating.
However, after learning more over a period of time, Huang Yaoshi had finally come to believe it somewhat.
Especially after Huang Rong passed the Tai Yin Manual to Huang Yaoshi, he believed it completely.
Huang Yaoshi was also very curious about Xiao Fan, who had been capable of creating such a profound cultivation technique as the Tai Yin Manual.
As the father and daughter waited, two Light Gates suddenly appeared in the sky above Peach Blossom Island.
Then, a man and a woman appeared on Peach Blossom Island almost simultaneously.
The man was handsome and dashing, with an extraordinary bearing.
The woman was enchanting and breathtakingly beautiful, her skin fair and delicate, as though it carried a trace of a flame's warmth.
"Young Master Xiao, Miss Yan Lingji, welcome to my world," Huang Rong said with a brightening gaze, stepping forward and smiling at the two of them.
Yan Lingji blinked and looked Xiao Fan and Huang Rong over for a moment before saying with a sweet smile, "Miss Huang, you're truly beautiful. Brother Xiao Fan, you're just as handsome as I imagined."
Xiao Fan smiled faintly. "I didn't expect the first two group members I met to both be peerless beauties."
Huang Rong was exquisitely beautiful, while Yan Lingji was enchanting and charming. They truly deserved to be goddesses in the hearts of countless readers.
Cough, cough!
Just then, Huang Yaoshi suddenly coughed from the side, as if to say that there was still someone else here.
Huang Rong smiled brightly and said to Xiao Fan and Yan Lingji, "Young Master Xiao, Miss Yan Lingji, this is my father. He is also the master of Peach Blossom Island."
Then, Huang Rong introduced Xiao Fan and Yan Lingji to Huang Yaoshi.
The two sides immediately exchanged greetings.
After the pleasantries were over, Huang Yaoshi and Huang Rong invited Xiao Fan and Yan Lingji to the pavilion where they lived.
As they walked along at an unhurried pace, Xiao Fan silently issued a check-in command to the system in his heart.
