Visiting the sect early
The situation Xiao Yu was in was happening to other members of the Xiao Clan in various places.
Xiao Yan, Xiao Ding, Xiao Li, and the others, who had just returned to the inn, also saw their cultivation levels soar instantly.
Xiao Yan and the other two all broke through from the Dou Master realm to the Da Dou Shi realm. Xiao Yan Six Star Great Dou Master, Xiao Ding Four Star Da Dou Shi, and Xiao Li Three Star Da Dou Shi!
Xiao Yu, Xiao Ning, and Xiao Mei from the Jia Nan Academy also broke through to new levels. The former broke through to the Da Dou Shi, while Xiao Ning and Xiao Mei broke through to the Dou Master!
In the Xiao Clan in Wu Tan City, Xiao Zhan, who was reviewing the accounts of the Xiao Clan Market in his study, suddenly felt his internal Dou Qi become smoother. He then directly broke through from Da Dou Shi to One Star Dou Ling. At the same time, the three elders also broke through to the Peak Da Dou Shi, just one step away from Dou Ling!
The rest of the Xiao Clan members also began to break through at the same time. It can be said that at this moment, the overall strength of the Xiao Clan has risen to a new level. Most importantly, they are unaware that their Dou Di Bloodline has reverted to its ancestral form by 30%, which means that their future talents have been boosted countless times!
Xiao Zhan stared in utter bewilderment at the changes in his internal Dou Qi, as if he were dreaming. Soon, the other three elders rushed over. They looked at each other in the study, their eyes filled with undisguised surprise and confusion!
"Clan leader, what's going on? I feel like my cultivation speed is even faster than when I was young!" the Great Elder asked.
The Second Elder chimed in, "Yes, I just broke through five minor realms in a row!"
When the three looked at Xiao Zhan, they were slightly taken aback. Sensing the powerful aura emanating from Xiao Zhan, they all exclaimed in astonishment, "Clan leader, you've broken through to the Dou Ling?"
Xiao Zhan laughed heartily, "Yes, it's incredible that I broke through to the Dou Ling realm in such a short time! I don't know anything about this either; perhaps it's my ancestors' blessing. We still need to cultivate diligently!"
The three elders nodded slightly in agreement. The Xiao Clan can now be said to be the number one family in Wu Tan City, and it is thriving!
Inside the hotel in the Imperial Capital, Xiao Yan, Xiao Ding, and Xiao Li looked at each other, none of them knowing what was going on. In the end, they could only accept this unexpected gift with doubt!
Xiao Yu and the others from the Jia Nan Academy were even more unable to explain this situation. There was nothing they could do but accept the outcome. Only in their subsequent cultivation would these members of the Xiao Clan family discover the changes in their talents!
Back on Xiao Yu's side, Hai Bodong Elder Jia were also stunned by Xiao Yu's sudden surge in strength. Hai Bodong thought that Xiao Yu had used that secret technique again to enhance his strength.
However, Hai Bodong soon realized something was wrong. Xiao Yu's strength this time did not leap across three major realms; he only advanced from the strength of Da Dou Shi to the Dou Ling realm!
Elder Jia asked in utter shock, "Xiao Shi Yi, what's the meaning of your strength?"
Xiao Yu opened his eyes, and a dazzling light shot out from them. He then calmed his mind and felt the surge of power within his body. He had suppressed the Heavenly Tribulation that would allow him to break through from Da Dou Shi to Dou Ling. Although he had suppressed it, he would have to overcome the Heavenly Tribulation if he wanted to advance further, so it was impossible for the Heavenly Tribulation to disappear!
Upon hearing Elder Jia's words, Xiao Yu simply replied, "I just don't know how, I broke through!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's answer, Elder Jia and Hai Bodong rolled their eyes. How could he have broken through so quickly? If you're going to make things up, at least give a better reason!
However, they had no intention of delving deeper, since everyone has their own secrets, and there was no need to ask too many questions!
Xiao Yu quickly familiarized himself with the Bloodline Power. The bloodline of Dou Di was indeed well-deserved. Thinking about how those Eight Ancient Clans could enjoy the blessings of their ancestors, now his Xiao Clan no longer had to envy them!
Xiao Yu looked in the direction of the Misty Cloud Sect, then turned to Hai Bodong and asked, "What would happen if I forced my way into the Misty Cloud Sect now?"
Hai Bodong's expression changed, and he said to Xiao Yu, "Are you crazy? That old guy Yun Shan isn't dead, and there's still Yun Yun, and all the elders of the Misty Cloud Sect. Don't even mention that you're a Dou Ling now; even if you were Dou Emperor, you'd probably be suppressed if you went to the Misty Cloud Sect!"
Elder Jia also said, "That's right, the Misty Cloud Sect's protective formation is no joke. Even I, this old man, wouldn't dare to go against the entire Misty Cloud Sect, let alone you, little fellow!"
Xiao Yu frowned and pondered for a moment, then said to Hai Bodong Elder Jia, "Understood, I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, Xiao Yu flapped his Purple Cloud Wings and quickly flew down the mountain. Since forcing his way through didn't work, he had to find another way!
Watching Xiao Yu's departing figure, Elder Jia's snow-white brows furrowed slightly. "Wouldn't he do something foolish? Forcibly breaking into the Misty Cloud Sect isn't something an ordinary person would think of!"
Hai Bodong chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I know him. He's not that stupid! Let's go. These are all internal matters of the Misty Cloud Sect. We shouldn't get involved!" With that, he spread his wings and flew down the mountain. Jia Lai also shook his head slightly and then left as well.
After descending the mountain, Xiao Yu went directly to the inn where his elder brother and the others were staying. Upon seeing Xiao Yu's return, Xiao Yan and the other two surrounded him with joy. However, they soon sensed the powerful aura emanating from Xiao Yu, an aura far stronger than their own.
Xiao Yan asked in a daze, "Brother Yu, you've broken through to the Dou Ling?"
Xiao Yu smiled faintly and nodded, which was tantamount to acknowledging that he had achieved the Dou Ling!
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li could only look at Xiao Yu with envy. Such talent was truly beyond their reach; they were so jealous.
Xiao Yu then looked at Xiao Yan and said, "Third Brother, isn't it time for you to go to the Misty Cloud Sect to pay your respects in a few days?"
Xiao Yu's words surprised the three of them slightly. Xiao Yan nodded directly and said, "Yes, three days later!"
Xiao Yan's eyes were filled with soaring fighting spirit and determination. He hadn't even used the Spirit Replenishing Qi Pill he originally planned to use for his breakthrough when he encountered this situation of sudden increase in strength. Now he was Six Star Great Dou Master, so he had nothing to worry about!
Xiao Li asked with some confusion, "Little Yu, why are you asking this?"
Xiao Yu said directly, "I want to go to the Misty Cloud Sect, but Misty Cloud Sect right now, so I'd like Third Brother to go three days earlier to pay my Misty Cloud Sect!"
"You want to come with me?" Xiao Yan immediately guessed Xiao Yu's intention.
Xiao Yu nodded and said, "That's right. With Third Brother's current strength, going to the Misty Cloud Sect shouldn't be a problem!"
Xiao Yan chuckled, "That's true. Since you've said so, I'll agree. Let's go pay our respects now!"
Xiao Yu stopped Xiao Yan, who was about to walk outside, and said, "There's no need to rush. Let's go tomorrow. We can go to the Misty Cloud Sect to pay our respects first thing tomorrow morning!"
Xiao Yan nodded slightly after hearing this and stopped walking.
Misty Cloud Sect, back mountain.
Yun Shan looked at Yun Yun and said, "Tomorrow you will go back to take charge of the Misty Cloud Sect. This child will stay by my side from now on, and I will personally teach her. What do you say?"
Yun Yun looked at Yun Shan with some surprise and asked in astonishment, "Teacher, you're not angry with me anymore?"
Yun Shan chuckled and said, "What's there to blame you for? You're my disciple. Now that it's happened, let it be. This child can stay at the Misty Cloud Sect!"
"By the way, the child's father?" Yun Shan asked, looking at Yun Yun.
Yun Yun hesitated for a moment, then decided not to say anything, and instead said, "It was just an accident in the Monster Mountain Range, and I'm afraid we won't see that person again. The child will stay with the Misty Cloud Sect from now on!"
Seeing that Yun Yun didn't want to say more, Yun Shan didn't ask any further questions, but simply nodded slightly, "The child will stay with you for now. After a while, I will send the child to my secluded place, where I will personally teach the child. You can come whenever you wish."
"Yes, teacher!" Yun Yun looked at Yun Shan with a happy expression, responded, and then hugged the child in her arms.
