Intuition

Inside the room, Hai Bodong sat in a chair, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and said, "I guess that guy will investigate our background after he goes back."

Xiao Yu chuckled and shrugged, saying, "Perhaps, but who cares? He's destined not to find anything."

Hai Bodong nodded and got up to go back to his room, but just as he was leaving, Xiao Yu suddenly said, "I just met someone at the door!"

Xiao Yu's words made Hai Bodong raise an eyebrow slightly and ask, "Who is it?"

Xiao Yu didn't keep them in suspense and said softly, "The young sect master of the Misty Cloud Sect Nalan Yanran!"

When Xiao Yu uttered the name, Hai Bodong frowned immediately. Clearly, he hadn't expected Nalan Yanran to come. He said in a deep voice, "Has the relationship between the Mo Family and the Misty Cloud Sect become this good? Even someone as insignificant as Mo Cheng in the Misty Cloud Sect has attracted the personal attention of the Misty Cloud Sect's young sect leader?"

"What, Elder Hai, are you really going to be intimidated by the title of the young sect master of the Misty Cloud Sect?" Xiao Yu said with a relaxed expression.

Hai Bodong rolled his eyes upon hearing Xiao Yu's words and said, "Who does she think she is? I was just wondering why the Misty Cloud Sect sent Nalan Yanran here. Don't underestimate the Misty Cloud Sect. As the number one power in the empire, the Misty Cloud Sect is not just about Yun Yun, who is a Dou Emperor. I still doubt whether that old bastard Yun Shan is dead or not!"

Upon hearing the mention of Yun Shan, Xiao Yu immediately became interested and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Hai Bodong glanced at Xiao Yu and chuckled, "Little Fox, is there anything else that interests you? You knew that old man Yun Shan had already reached the Peak Nine-Star Dou Emperor more than a decade ago, right?"

Xiao Yu nodded slightly; he was aware of this matter. Seeing Xiao Yu nod, Hai Bodong continued, "But just over a decade ago, news suddenly spread that when that old man broke through to the Nine Star Dou Huang Dou Zong realm, he failed and perished. This news was subsequently accepted by everyone after Yun Yun became the Misty Cloud Sect Master. However, in my opinion, this was merely a scheme by Yun Shan. Perhaps he truly failed, but it wouldn't amount to his demise!"

"It's definitely not that bad!" Xiao Yu said at this moment.

Hai Bodong looked at Xiao Yu with great interest and said, "How do you know it's not that bad? I came to this conclusion after fighting Yun Shan!"

"It's just an intuition. Perhaps you'll see your old friend soon!" Xiao Yu naturally wouldn't tell Hai Bodong that he had read the original novel. He not only knew that Yun Shan was not dead, but also that he had broken through to the Dou Zong realm with the help of the Soul Hall.

Hai Bodong shook his head slightly and smiled, saying, "Perhaps. Alright, these past two days have been quite tiring for my old bones, I'll go back and rest now."

Xiao Yu nodded and said, "Alright, tomorrow is the day we go to the Mo Family!"

After Hai Bodong left, Xiao Yu took out the Green Lotus Platform and began cultivating. Although everyone considered an eighteen-year-old Five-Star Da Dou Shi a prodigy, Xiao Yu still felt it wasn't enough. After all, he still wanted to go to the Central Plains to make his mark, and he needed to be at least Dou Zong. Even with his current level, he would have to keep a low profile in the Central Plains. No, the more Xiao Yu thought about it, the more he felt his strength was too low. Time was of the essence!

As the night passed quietly, the light of dawn refracted from the horizon, and Xiao Yu ended his night of cultivation.

After a quick wash, Xiao Yu put on a large black robe, opened the door, and went out.

Hai Bodong was already standing outside the door. Xiao Yu went down the stairs first. Just as Xiao Yu and Hai Bodong were going down the stairs, the doors of the two rooms opposite them opened, revealing Nalan Yanran and Ge Ye.

Xiao Yu, who was walking down the stairs, was naturally unaware of what was happening. He and Hai Bodong walked to a corner of the Mo Family. Hai Bodong had already scanned the area from the outside and looked at Xiao Yu, saying, "The security here is very tight. It might be difficult to get in quietly."

Xiao Yu chuckled, "Who said I was going to sneak in? I'm here to cause trouble. Anyone who dares to lay a hand on my people, no matter who they are, I'll chop off their hand!" The murderous intent in his words made Hai Bodong frown.

"I can fight my way in head-on, but what about your strength?" Hai Bodong wasn't joking. If a fight broke out, Xiao Yu's strength as a Da Dou Shi wouldn't be able to gain any advantage against the siege of so many Mo Family members, let alone save anyone!

Xiao Yu remained silent, instead summoning the Cultivation Boost Card Item awarded by the system. "How much strength I gain from this boost is up to fate!"

A smile curved Xiao Yu's lips. With a thought, the card in his hand beneath his black Xiao Yu vanished into specks of light and entered his body.

Immediately, Hai Bodong's body tensed up, and he looked at Xiao Yu, who was shrouded in a black robe, in horror. An incomparably vast and terrifying power was erupting from Xiao Yu's body, and the violent power made Hai Bodong's scalp tingle.

Xiao Yu carefully sensed the rapidly increasing cultivation level within his body: six stars, Seven-star, eight stars. As his power grew, his cultivation level directly broke through to the Dou Ling. However, this was not the end. It continued to surge towards the Nine-Star Dou Ling, and unsurprisingly, he broke through to the Dou Wang.

Seeing this, Hai Bodong immediately shouted in a deep voice, "If you continue like this, you'll burst your meridians! Stop right now!"

Xiao Yu's tone remained calm and composed, showing no sign of panic. He said lightly, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. It's just a secret technique, and it only has one side effect: your cultivation will disappear for three days!"

Xiao Yu's words immediately shattered Hai Bodong's initial intention to suppress Xiao Yu's surging cultivation. Hai Bodong asked with some surprise, "Is it really that simple?"

Xiao Yu gave a soft "hmm." Seeing Xiao Yu's confident demeanor, Hai Bodong had no choice but to believe him. In that moment of hesitation, Xiao Yu's cultivation level surged into the Dou Emperor like a floodgate being opened, before slowing down at the Nine Star Dou Huang level.

However, he did not stop. Xiao Yu knew that this Cultivation Boost Card could directly send him to the Dou Zong realm, but he still suppressed this power. Before encountering the two from the Heavenly Snake Mansion, he did not need to use all his trump cards. It would be troublesome if he scared off the two from the Heavenly Snake Mansion!

Suppressing his cultivation at the Peak Nine-Star Dou Emperor, Xiao Yu said to Hai Bodong, "Now we can directly break in!"

Seeing that Xiao Yu's cultivation had surpassed his own, Hai Bodong suddenly felt his mouth go dry. What kind of terrifying secret technique could allow a nobody at the Da Dou Shi level to directly leap into the Dou Emperor, a power that was impossible to look at directly?

"What is your cultivation level now?" Hai Bodong asked Xiao Yu with some awe.

If Hai Bodong previously valued Xiao Yu because of the Sixth Grade Alchemist behind him, now he values Xiao Yu himself. He had never witnessed such a secret technique that could drastically increase cultivation, and the side effect was merely the loss of cultivation for three days—a side effect that could be considered negligible.

Moreover, who knows how many times he can use such a secret technique? From this point of view, Hai Bodong can no longer treat Xiao Yu as a junior!
