Inside the quiet chamber, Xu Yang sank into thought.
Judging by his current cultivation speed, even with ample resources, he could only reach seventh heavenly origin within a year or two.
At seventh heavenly origin, his combat strength would be ninth heavenly origin at best. Even if Martial Master Han Qianlin did not act personally, the Han Family probably had plenty of people capable of killing him. Just three to five ninth heavenly origin experts attacking together could beat him to death. As for the Heavenly Strategy Academy, he had never expected it to resolve his troubles with the Han Family, nor did he have a habit of placing his life in someone else's hands.
Besides, as the millennium family whose influence blazed brightest in Cloud Province, the Han Family could not possibly lack a few experts beyond heavenly origin. Even the Fu Family, which had defected to the Demon Cult, possessed two fighters with strength beyond heavenly origin.
Most importantly, would the Han Family give him a year or two to grow at leisure? He could not spend that entire time in seclusion. Even revealing his spirit bone talent would be of little use. The Heavenly Strategy Academy would still protect him openly, but the Han Family would continue trying to kill him in secret. As long as nothing could be traced back to them, the academy could do nothing to the Han Family.
Everyone knew the Han Family had been behind the Blackwater Spirit Loach King incident, yet Chu Nangui and the others had still been helpless.
Revealing his spirit bone talent would only make the Han Family more desperate to kill him.
If he could not reveal his talent, there was only one option.
"Looks like I'll have to boost my talent and speed up my cultivation."
