Hearing the Grandmaster's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Tang San's eyes.
Looking up, I happened to see the Grandmaster's eyes, which were full of profound meaning.
Tang San didn't refute it again. Suddenly, something came to mind: Grandmaster's talent had improved by leaps and bounds in the past six months!
While it doesn't necessarily mean that all of this is related to Xiao Yan, Tang San does have the experience of the Tang Sect from his previous life.
They are not so easily deceived.
An unbelievable thought popped into Tang San's mind: Could it be that the other world his senior brother spoke of was real?
Tang San pondered, since he possessed memories of his past life, perhaps Xiao Yan's Martial Soul truly was the key to connecting to another world?
Thinking of this, Tang San's breathing quickened.
He knew the Grandmaster must be hiding something; if so, everything would make sense.
A storm raged within Tang San's heart. If it involved another world, wouldn't that be...?
However, no matter what thoughts were in his mind, Tang San would not reveal them at this moment.
He nodded, seemingly believing the Grandmaster's words.
However, only he himself knows what he is really planning.
Meanwhile, inside a luxurious mansion in Heaven Dou City, Qian Renxue led Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing to a courtyard and said:
"You'll need to stay here for now. Shrek Academy is currently attracting the attention of many forces, so if you don't want to be exposed, don't go out unnecessarily."
Elder She led Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing into a room. Qian Renxue's gaze fell on Xiao Yan, and she spoke:
"You should focus on recovering. I'll come back once you've healed."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qian Renxue turned and left.
Watching Qian Renxue leave, Xiao Yan's gaze fell on Zhu Zhuqing standing to the side.
Perhaps it was the miraculous effect of the medicine that Qian Renxue had them drink that made them recover, because Zhu Zhuqing's injuries were no longer a big problem, and her complexion had become much rosier.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan felt much relieved and closed his eyes to begin absorbing and healing his injuries.
Because he had consumed the Nine-Heart Soul-Cleansing Glazed Lotus, his meridians were no longer able to utilize his Soul Power.
However, when facing the Grandmaster, he forcefully used his Soul Power, almost tearing all the meridians in his body apart.
However, after taking the medicine given to him by Qian Renxue, his meridians are currently being repaired.
Zhu Zhuqing's injuries were not serious, and she recovered and woke up early the next morning.
Although my wrist is still a little sore, there have been no lasting effects.
Seeing Xiao Yan cultivating and recovering to the side, Zhu Zhuqing's gaze softened.
"Whoosh!"
Just as Zhu Zhuqing was staring at Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan suddenly opened his eyes. Zhu Zhuqing guiltily looked away and glanced to the side.
"You're awake?"
Xiao Yan looked at Zhu Zhuqing, whose cheeks had flushed, and a hint of apology appeared in his eyes. He said:
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault..."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing pressed her index finger against Xiao Yan's lips and said earnestly:
"No need to apologize, this is my own choice."
Zhu Zhuqing had never been able to distinguish the true nature of her feelings until she gained the approval of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, at which point Zhu Zhuqing began to confront her own emotions.
It turns out that Xiao Yan's image had already been etched in her heart long ago.
Therefore, when Xiao Yan asked her to take him away from the Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing Xiao Yan did not hesitate to carry him away.
Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback when he saw the rare seriousness and stubbornness in the girl's eyes, and then nodded gently.
However, Xiao Yan will not pretend that everything that happened yesterday never happened.
When Zhu Zhuqing attacked the Grandmaster yesterday, he ultimately thought of their past companionship, so he slightly shifted the Netherworld Lock.
Otherwise, the Grandmaster of today would have died long ago.
However, the friendship of the past also ended yesterday.
In the future, in Xiao Yan's heart, the ruthless Grandmaster and Dai Mubai, who attacked Zhu Zhuqing, are both on his kill list!
As for Qian Renxue, who saved them yesterday, Xiao Yan had some guesses about her identity.
After all, there are only a handful of forces on the entire continent that can produce Titled Douluo.
Moreover, the fact that a Titled Douluo showed such respect to Qian Renxue also indirectly indicates that Qian Renxue's identity is not simple.
Qian Renxue specifically assigned several servants to be in charge of arranging food for the two of them.
Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing did not go out on their own.
After all, what the other party said was true. Liu Erlong had been in Heaven Dou City for so many years, and she must have her own information channels. If they were exposed at this time...
Even with Titled Douluo, they would find it difficult to escape.
Although he harbored hatred for the hypocritical Grandmaster, Xiao Yan knew that Flender and Liu Erlong would definitely side with Grandmaster.
After all, aside from the ambiguous relationship between the Grandmaster and Liu Erlong, the three of them also shared a bond built over decades of working together in the Soul Master World.
For the next two days, Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing stayed in the courtyard to cultivate.
Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power Level has reached level 40. If she doesn't absorb Soul Ring, her cultivation will not be able to improve.
Therefore, rather than cultivating, it would be more accurate to say that Zhu Zhuqing was recuperating from her injuries and adjusting the Soul Power within her body.
For the past six months, in order to lock Xiao Yan's control over his body, Grandmaster has used many spiritual liquids containing energy.
Most of the spiritual liquid had already seeped into his body, accumulating into poison and affecting his physical capacity.
However, with the effects of the Nine-Heart Soul-Cleansing Glazed Lotus, not only were all the hidden injuries in his body healed, but even the accumulated medicinal power and toxins were transformed into the Soul Power that enabled him to advance.
Although the Nine-Heart Soul-Cleansing Glazed Lotus primarily purifies toxins and repairs the body, as Immortal Herb, it can also enhance Xiao Yan's strength.
In addition, the medicinal power accumulated in Xiao Yan's body resulted in a terrifying increase in Xiao Yan's strength.
Previously, he couldn't cultivate because his meridians couldn't mobilize his Soul Power, but now his meridians have stabilized.
All the medicinal power accumulated in Xiao Yan's body was transformed into Xiao Yan's Soul Power.
He progressed from level 32 Soul Elder all the way to level 39.
As the last trace of medicinal power was absorbed, Xiao Yan officially broke through to level 40!
Only three days had passed.
Xiao Yan's breakthrough also meant that his injuries had been completely healed.
"Roar!"
Inside the room, as the restraints within his body were broken, Xiao Yan let out a low roar.
After six months of frustration, I've finally stepped into the Soul Ancestor realm!
Like Zhu Zhuqing, he only needs to acquire his Fourth Soul Ring to officially enter the Soul Ancestor realm.
However, unlike others, Zhu Zhuqing still possesses the medicinal power of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red within her body, all of which has accumulated there. As long as she absorbs the Fourth Soul Ring, she will be able to break through once again.
On the second day after Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing recovered, Qian Renxue, whom they hadn't seen for several days, returned to the courtyard.
With Qian Renxue's arrival, Xiao Yan also became more serious.
After all, no one values you for no reason, and the other party's act of saving him and Zhu Zhuqing was not because the other party was a kind person.
Now is the time for the other party to negotiate terms.
However, regardless of anything else, Xiao Yan still felt a trace of gratitude towards Qian Renxue.
If the other party hadn't intervened, Zhu Zhuqing would have been in grave danger.
