The Price Was Worth Paying for This Young Man

Lin Xiaotian was startled. The man before him looked utterly serious.

He glanced at the four young ladies beside them. Aside from the faint blushes on their faces, not one showed any distaste or objection.

He realized he had underestimated the value of Gale Step.

"Uncle Ming, I didn't create or improve this technique."

"Oh?" Uncle Ming was deeply surprised.

Lin Xiaotian continued:

"My master taught me a technique called Blood-Qi Resonance. It can drive Gale Step, but even so, Gale Step seems to require a certain Root Bone."

What a quick change of face!

Lin Xiaotian betrayed neither pleasure nor anger. He said quietly:

"And the four young ladies you mentioned just now..."

He gave the four of them a pointed look.

"You're all young. We won't force anything like this. It's entirely up to you."

Lin Xiaotian turned his gaze to Xiao Jingxin and stared straight at her. He said nothing, but his meaning was clear.

Lin Xiaotian raised an eyebrow and gave a mild "Oh," then said no more.

Xiao Jingxin had not expected that response. The reasons she had prepared fell flat, and she could not help taking another look
