The Silver Dragon King's Reaction, Going Out to Train?

The clan's Soul Fighting Arena.

Boom!

A foreign-surnamed deacon at level sixty-three was blasted away by a ball of light the size of a basketball.

His entire body flew sideways like a kite with its string cut, crashing to the ground in a miserable heap.

Only after a moment did he push himself up with an awkward flop.

The deacon cupped his hands slightly and said sheepishly, "Young Sect Master, I concede."

Yu Mingxiao waved a hand lightly, signaling that he could leave.

After dismissing the man, Yu Mingxiao slowly stepped down from the arena.

He was ten years old this year. Thanks to numerous heavenly treasures, he had already become a level forty-seven Soul Ancestor.

With the strength and combat talent of the Radiant Sacred Dragon, he was capable of fighting even ordinary Soul Emperors.

Na'er ran over with a handkerchief in her hand, her eyes sparkling as she said brightly, "Big brother, you're amazing!"

Yu Mingxiao smiled faintly, accepted the handkerchief, and wiped the thin layer of sweat from his forehead. "You'll be even more amazing than me someday."

It had to be said, raising the little Silver Dragon King at his side provided immense emotional satisfaction.

There had never been any shortage of people flattering him, but this was different. She was the Silver Dragon King.

Yu Mingxiao looked at Na'er and felt that her gaze no longer seemed as clear and pure as before. He could not help asking, "Na'er, do you have something on your mind?"

Na'er froze slightly, her face full of surprise. "Big brother, why are you suddenly asking that?"

"I was just curious," Yu Mingxiao said.

Na'er raised her head and softly asked, "Big brother, if I left one day, would you miss me?"

What the hell? Had Na'er recovered her memories?

Yu Mingxiao's heart sank sharply. If she had recovered her memories, she truly might leave. After spending the past year together, he did not think he could make her stay.

And when she left, she might even take the Dragon-Slaying Blade with her.

"Big brother, what are you thinking about?" Na'er asked with a coquettish pout.

"I was thinking, why would you leave?" Yu Mingxiao asked.

"I said if," Na'er said.

Yu Mingxiao replied blandly, "Then I would miss you."

"Big brother, you sound so perfunctory." Na'er could not help rolling her eyes cutely.

Star Dou Great Forest.

After receiving Na'er's command, Di Tian immediately returned to the Lake of Life and reported everything to Gu Yuena in full detail.

"You're saying that my incarnation sent word that the one wielding the Dragon-Slaying Blade is a human, and that this human... is not within this world's destined trajectory?"

Gu Yuena's expression changed drastically, unable to conceal her shock.

"My Lady, your incarnation did indeed say so. She also admitted that it would benefit our soul beast race to befriend this human. For that reason, she decided to remain by his side," Di Tian added after some thought.

"She wants to stay with that human?" Gu Yuena fell silent for a moment before saying softly, "Then do as she says."

"Also, continue maintaining contact with my incarnation."

"Since she wishes to befriend that human, then give him benefits. Don't humans need to absorb Soul Rings? We will provide him with Soul Rings."

She had inherited the Dragon God's wisdom. Since her incarnation believed this person was worth investing in, she must have seen some hidden mystery. Gu Yuena chose to trust her incarnation—and, at the same time, trust her own wisdom!

Di Tian bowed slightly and said solemnly, "As you command, My Lady!"

Meanwhile.

After having Na'er return home, Yu Mingxiao went alone to the Sect Master Mansion and met Yu Yuanzhen.

"Mingxiao, did you come to ask about Xiaogang?"

Yu Yuanzhen gestured for him to sit and asked the question.

After Yu Xiaogang returned to the clan, his Soul Skill had made him the clan's laughingstock for a time, so he simply hid in his room.

Furthermore, his foundation had been damaged and he was temporarily unable to cultivate. Yu Yuanzhen had not made him come out for training either. He neither left his home nor stepped beyond its doors, as though he had vanished from the clan.

Yu Yuanzhen had thought Yu Mingxiao was concerned about Yu Xiaogang's situation.

"Father, I am already ten years old this year. I want to go out and train for a while," Yu Mingxiao said.

Yu Yuanzhen frowned slightly and pondered. "Mingxiao, you're still rather young. Are you sure you want to go out and train?"

"Father, I'm not that young anymore. Besides, this is not me boasting, but my Soul Power has already reached level forty-seven. Among those Soul Masters a few years older than me, how many have attained such strength?" Yu Mingxiao said.

"You have a point. Do you need me to send a few guards with you?" Yu Yuanzhen asked with a smile.

Yu Mingxiao shook his head. "If guards are protecting me, then it can't be called training. Besides, I won't be going anywhere too dangerous."

"Very well. Be careful on the road," Yu Yuanzhen said.

Yu Mingxiao nodded slightly, turned, and strode away.

After seeing Yu Mingxiao off, Yu Yuanzhen let out a soft sigh.

He naturally could not simply allow the clan's future Heaven-Supporting White Jade Pillar to wander outside alone.

Thus, he planned to secretly send several experts after him.

That way, they could protect Yu Mingxiao in secret without interfering with his training.

After returning to his courtyard, Yu Mingxiao quickly packed his luggage and gave Na'er a few more instructions, telling her to stay home without worry.

He estimated that this trip would not take long before he returned.

That was because he intended to go to Sunset Forest—or, more precisely, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well within Sunset Forest.

Immortal Herbs covered the place. At this point in time, it was likely still unclaimed land, and perhaps the greatest danger there was Medusa, the queen of serpents.

In truth, he had planned to visit the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well as early as two years ago.

He simply had never found a suitable excuse.

Now, he could finally make the trip under the guise of going out to train.

Actually, it would not be bad to tell his father about the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

It was just that there were too many Immortal Herbs there. Given Yu Yuanzhen's personality, he might give one to his younger brother, Yu Xiaogang.

He truly could not bring himself to like that younger brother.

If Yu Xiaogang consumed an Immortal Herb and Luo Sanpao happened to complete its evolution, then no matter what kind of freakish Martial Soul it became, Yu Xiaogang's dream of becoming strong would likely revive, and he would climb right over Yu Mingxiao's head.

That was not something he wished to see.

He could accept using Immortal Herbs to strengthen the clan, but using them to fulfill Yu Xiaogang was something he could not accept.

Rather than waste Immortal Herbs on Yu Xiaogang, he would rather use them to recruit powerful experts from outside.

Better to let him lie low for a few years. Ideally, he would become like he was during Tang San's era. Although he had taken a crooked path and still lacked all self-awareness, at least he was pathetic.

Aside from his continued obsession when facing Bibi Dong, he knew to avoid the edge of other powerhouses and keep his tail tucked between his legs.

While traveling, Yu Mingxiao also noticed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan disciples following behind him.

Even though they concealed themselves extremely well, they still could not escape his eyes.

He instantly guessed that Yu Yuanzhen had sent them to protect him in secret.

He deliberately entered a bustling market, stirred up some commotion, and caused the crowd to become packed and noisy. Then, he slipped into a narrow alley, used the effects of his External Soul Bone to conceal his aura, and quietly shook them off.
