I Will Become a Dou Sheng!

Time always flies when you're on a date.

Along the forest path, Xiao Yan and Xun'er strolled along, listening to each other describe information about the Gu Clans.

During the trip, the two also enjoyed a delicious lunch together.

After that, the two continued shopping...

What seemed incredibly boring to others was something the two of them thoroughly enjoyed.

Of course, no couple on a date would be bored.

After all, if you have the right people, it doesn't matter where you are!

Before we knew it, the sun was already setting on the horizon.

At the same time, Xiao Yan had also learned some things about the Gu Clans from Xun'er.

"So, Xun'er's family is quite extraordinary."

Finally, Xiao Yan couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"Brother Xiao Yan..."

Seeing Xiao Yan's expression, Xun'er showed a hint of worry.

Although she had described the Gu Clans in a more modest way, she was still worried that her Brother Xiao Yan would be discouraged!

In fact, the difference between the Xiao Household and the Gu Clan is like heaven and earth.

Even with Xiao Lin, the sixth son, there was still no way to bridge the gap between the Xiao Household and the Gu Clans.

Sensing the worry in the girl beside him, Xiao Yan smiled and spoke confidently.

"Yes, I believe in Brother Xiao Yan!"

Seeing that Xiao Yan was not discouraged, Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a look of trust.

However, Xun'er is showing right now is probably more of a simple trust in the person she likes.

It's like when you like someone, and they say they can pluck the stars from the sky, you'd believe them!

"Xun'er, I, your Brother Xiao Yan, make you a promise today: one day I will definitely go to Central Plains, to your family, to make your family accept me, and I will also bring you back!"

Xiao Yan suddenly stopped and grabbed Xun'er's shoulder, staring directly into the girl's eyes as he spoke.

At this moment, Xun'er saw only seriousness and an indomitable spirit in Xiao Yan's eyes!

Clearly, Xiao Yan was not joking when he said that.

At the same time, from another perspective, it also subtly conveys a sense of confession...

Even though Xiao Lin didn't mean it that way when he said it, Xun'er already understood it that way.

This was already evident from the slight blush on her cheeks.

"Xun'er awaits that day, and she awaits Brother Xiao Yan..."

Xun'er, who was already a little shy because of Xiao Yan's confession-like words, spoke softer and softer as she continued.

And just like that, the day of the date passed quickly.

Xun'er also temporarily forgot the troubles of her impending departure.

However, Xiao Yan couldn't fall asleep that night.

Oh, by the way, Xiao Yan's room is still being occupied by Medusa.

In addition, after he spent the night in Nalan Yanran's room, he later chose another room in the Pavilion of the Pan Gate settlement to stay in.

Although Xiao Yan really wanted to continue sleeping in Nalan Yanran's room every day, the latter was clearly not as shameless as Xiao Yan.

That night, she was ambushed!

Nalan Yanran was not so bold afterward.

Moreover, after that, Xun'er seemed to be secretly sabotaging things to prevent such incidents from continuing.

Therefore, Xiao Yan is now sleeping alone.

But right now, Xiao Yan was tossing and turning in bed.

"Is Xun'er leaving in less than a month?"

Lying in bed, gazing at the bright moonlight outside the window, Xiao Yan couldn't help but mutter to himself.

When he was on a date with Xun'er in the morning, Xiao Yan's reaction wasn't too obvious, but by evening, his mind was completely preoccupied with it!

Therefore, let alone cultivating, he couldn't even sleep!

"Don't overthink it, there's no point in thinking so much! What that girl said was actually quite subtle; in reality, the power behind her is far more terrifying than she described!"

Just then, seeing Xiao Yan's absent-minded look, Yao Lao couldn't help but speak up.

"Teacher, do you also know about the power behind Xun'er?"

Upon hearing Yao Lao speak, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, and he immediately pressed for an answer.

"I know a little, but not much. With the power behind that girl, even Dou Venerable couldn't fulfill the promise you made!"

Only those who reach the Dou Sheng Realm have a chance to receive courtesy from the other party.

The Yao Lao's explanation also seemed somewhat vague.

Just as Xun'er had worried, Yao Lao also did not want the affairs of the Gu Clan to put too much pressure on Xiao Yan.

After all, when you haven't reached a certain level of understanding, knowing too much about many things is meaningless.

Yao Lao was born into the Yao Clan, one of the Eight Great Emperor Clans. Although he was later framed and expelled from the Yao Clan, he clearly had some knowledge of the Gu Clan, which was also one of the Eight Great Emperor Clans.

Putting everything else aside, Gu Yuan, one of the strongest figures on the Dou Qi Continent, is someone that no member of the Eight Great Emperor Clans would be unaware of.

Furthermore, before the Hun Clan had revealed its full strength, Yao Lao, like everyone else, believed that the Gu Clan was the strongest among the Eight Great Emperor Clans!

This is also why Yao Lao said those things to Xiao Yan just now.

"Becoming Dou Sheng? That seems like such a distant goal! But, teacher, I will definitely achieve it, I definitely will!"

"Crunch"

Xiao Yan stretched out his right hand and made a grasping motion towards the bright moon outside the window, while saying confidently.

Looking at Xiao Yan, it was as if he wanted to hold the whole world in his hands!

"Hehe, Xiao Yan, you seem quite confident. Back in the day, even I, your teacher, couldn't reach the Dou Sheng Realm. That's not a goal that can be achieved through hard work alone!"

The Yao Lao smiled, sensing the fearless spirit of a newborn calf emanating from Xiao Yan.

At the same time, Yao Lao said was not wrong.

The realm of Dou Sheng is indeed not something that can be reached through hard work alone; it also requires talent and opportunity!

Ah, no matter how difficult the road ahead, nothing can stop me!

Xiao Yan's determination had never been so firm as it was at this moment.

He's definitely reached the Dou Sheng Realm!

"Hmm, very well, since that's the case..."

At this point, the Yao Lao paused for a moment.

Immediately afterward, a roar rang out almost right next to Xiao Yan's ear.

"So you still have time to think about all this? Why don't you take a Calm-Mind Pill and start cultivating right away!"

Clearly, Yao Lao had been unable to tolerate Xiao Yan's condition for a long time.

"Hmm~, yes, yes, teacher, I'll begin my cultivation right away."

Grinning and rubbing his ears, Xiao Yan quickly did the same.

With a flash of light on the surface of the Storage Ring in Xiao Yan's hand, a jade bottle appeared in his hand.

And inside the jade bottle was naturally the Calm-Mind Pill Yao Lao had just mentioned.

This is a kind of Medicinal Pill that can help others eliminate all kinds of distracting thoughts. Its grade is not very high, only Tier 5.

This was something Xiao Yan figured out by chance during one of his alchemy sessions.

This can be considered the best Medicinal Pill for those whose minds are filled with distractions but who still wish to cultivate.

Clearly, Xiao Yan right now fits this description.

Therefore, after Yao Lao spoke, Xiao Yan immediately swallowed a Calm-Mind Pill and entered into cultivation.
