After sheathing his saber, Xiao Han's domineering aura faded away like a tide. His sunny face revealed an almost harmless smile. "Thank you for letting me win."
"Uh …" Shao Yunrong was stunned by Xiao Han's completely different temperament and immediately muttered.
"You were so fierce just now, but now you are so polite … However, sheathing your saber and restraining your sharpness. You are indeed a saber master."
After sheathing his saber, Xiao Han turned around and walked out of the hall, ready to find Ah Chou.
"Hey, wait, you … you seem to be called Xiao Han, right?" Shao Yunrong also sheathed her sword, caught up from behind and walked side by side with Xiao Han.
Wisps of refreshing fragrance came from Shao Yunrong. Xiao Han glanced at her from the corner of his eyes and saw that Shao Yunrong had a curvaceous figure. Her eyebrows and eyes gave off a kind of mature charm and style. Her golden curly hair gave her a different kind of exotic charm. She could also be considered as a stunner.
Xiao Han was young and was naturally a little restless. However, he quickly got rid of the distracting thoughts and nodded. "You can call me Xiao Han."
After saying that, Xiao Han said goodbye to Shao Yunrong and rushed out of the hall.
"Quite arrogant …" Shao Yunrong was slightly annoyed.
It should be known that in Mingjian Villa, she was peerless and as beautiful as a fairy. In addition, her sword skills were high, so she was pursued by countless young talents. It was really like a moon surrounded by stars.
She was always the one who spoke bluntly to others. It was impossible for others to give her face.
However, at this moment, Xiao Han didn't want to give her face.
This made her feel like a hot face stuck to a cold butt.
"Invincible in the Physical Body Realm … But this is only within the territory of Beacon Fire Empire.
What is there to be arrogant about?
Moreover, there is a saying in the Martial Dao … 'Under True Qi Realm, all are ants'. "Shao Yunrong said to Xiao Han's back.
"Of course I know that under True Qi Realm, all are ants." Xiao Han unexpectedly turned around and smiled. "But one day, I will strive for the True Qi Realm."
Xiao Han's eyes revealed a strong confidence, determination, and a trace of domineering aura, deeply injected into Shao Yunrong's beautiful eyes, making her suddenly speechless.
Outside the hall.
"This … this … Yun Rong has already been defeated …" The Shao Clan's Old Master Shao had a horrified expression on his face. He seemed to have lost his composure.
"Now … now … what should I do with this young man?"
The City Lord sighed and laughed involuntarily. "Old man, you should feel lucky."
"Huh?" Old Master Shao was stunned.
"Old Master, this young man is a friend of the Shao Family and a fellow disciple that Young Master Yunfan invited back to help.
If he's an enemy of the Shao Family, you'll be in big trouble. "
The City Governor sighed, and jealousy surged in his heart. He thought to himself, "The Shao Family has really made a fortune this time. They have Shao Yunrong who has comprehended the Sword Intent. Now, they have a young sabersman who is even more talented than Shao Yunrong.
Compared with Shao Yunrong and that young sabersman, martial artists like Shao Yunfeng and Shao Yuntian are just two idiots. "
"Ha!
That's right!
It was a great fortune to be a friend and not an enemy!
So what if they lost Jiang Feng?
Our Shao Family being able to make friends with this kind of peerless sabersman who has comprehended the Saber Intent is a great thing! "
After being enlightened by the City Lord, Old Master Shao was instantly enlightened. He walked towards Ah Chou with a smile.
… …
"Xiao Han, you're really getting stronger and stronger!"
Ah Chou and his family surrounded Xiao Han.
"Hey … Senior Brother Ah Chou, how am I strong?
Those who are below the True Qi Realm are all ants. "Xiao Han said modestly.
"Nephew Xiao Han, let's not talk about the True Qi Realm first. That's too far away.
Just based on the Physical Body Realm, you're already ridiculously strong.
Moreover, I've heard people say that martial artists who have comprehended the Sword Intent and Saber Intent are more confident than ordinary martial artists in breaking through to the True Qi Realm.
Of course, the profoundness is not something someone like me can pry into.
All in all, Nephew Xiao Han, I'm optimistic that you'll be able to break through to the True Qi Realm. "Ah Chou's father said joyfully.
The gazes that came from all directions were filled with jealousy and envy towards Ah Chou's family.
The people from the other families were all thinking in their hearts … 'Why is the mediocre Shao Yunfan able to make such a heaven-defying friend?
Why isn't this youngster my friend? '
… …
"Ahahahaha!
Fourth Brother!
Yunfan's grandson! "The clan leader, Old Master Shao, walked over with a flushed face.
"Yunfan, you're great!
You've improved a lot compared to last year. You're actually able to make friends with a benefactor!
Not bad, not bad!
I've always said that this child, Yunfan, has always been loyal and kind and is quite fortunate … "
Old Master Shao praised Ah Chou while looking at Xiao Han with a nervous and cautious gaze. "Hehe … Young Hero … Hello …"
Xiao Han laughed involuntarily. "Hello, Old Master."
Old Master Shao looked at Xiao Han's appearance and saw that he wasn't arrogant at all and didn't put on any airs. His heart that was hanging in the air finally relaxed. "Young Hero is amazingly talented.
Genius, truly a genius! "
"Old Master is overpraising me … In addition, I had no choice but to cripple that Jiang Feng. He's too arrogant and has the ambition of a wolf.
I hope Old Master won't be offended. "Xiao Han said with a faint smile.
"Oh … Young Hero, you don't have to take it to heart. Jiang Feng is indeed a bit too much and doesn't know what's good for him.
Fourth Brother has raised him for a long time, but he's actually rebellious.
Moreover, Jiang Feng is an outsider after all. He doesn't have the blood of our Shao Clan.
If he's crippled, then so be it. "Old Master Shao said with a smile.
Xiao Han and Ah Chou exchanged glances and laughed.
It seemed that this Old Master Shao was really a shrewd person and knew how to make a choice …
It was obvious that because of Xiao Han, Ah Chou's position in the Shao Clan had already risen.
"Young Hero, if there's nothing urgent, can you stay in my Shao Clan for a while?
My Shao Clan will definitely treat you as a distinguished guest. "Old Master Shao said tentatively.
"Yes." Xiao Han nodded thoughtfully. "I'll do as you say. If that's the case, I'll have to trouble Old Master.
This Scorching Flame City is really bustling. I also want to play for a few more days. "
In fact, Xiao Han wanted to use this period of time to completely master the next ten moves of the Indestructible Golden Body and the first move of the Seven Fragment Saber Technique, the Jade Breaking Style.
He also wanted to consolidate the movement martial skill of the Son of Heaven's Divine Fist, the Imperial Chariot.
"Good!
Good!
Young Hero, don't worry. There are many fun places in Scorching Flame City and countless delicacies among the people. This old man will let Yun Fan accompany you to play around!
I'll definitely let Young Hero have a great time! "Old Master Shao was overjoyed.
… …
On the other side.
Mingjian Villa's disciples were led by Shao Yunrong.
"Senior Sister Yunrong … just now you …" The red-clothed young girl stammered.
"I lost." Shao Yunrong said with relief.
"He's indeed stronger than me.
I'm sincerely convinced that I lost to him. "Shao Yunrong paused for a moment. A wisp of light flashed in her eyes as she said with a faint smile.
"Moreover, when I fought against a genius of this level, the collision of my sword intent and his saber intent benefited me greatly. My sword intent actually condensed a little.
It can be considered as a blessing in disguise. "
"Alright, Junior Sister Yunrong. Since the Shao Clan Meeting has ended, then let's quickly return to the sect.
The outer court's ranking competition is about to begin. We must make the best use of our time to cultivate.
Junior Sister Yunrong, in this year's outer court ranking competition, you're very likely to be the champion! "The white-clothed swordsman said hurriedly.
Shao Yunrong inadvertently looked towards Xiao Han and Ah Chou and said indifferently.
"Senior Brother Bai, Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, all of you return to Mingjian Villa first.
I intend to stay for a few days to properly digest and consolidate the experience of today's battle. "
"Junior Sister Yunrong, in the past, after you participated in the Shao Clan Meeting, you would return to Mingjian Villa on the same day. Why do you insist on staying this time?" The white-clothed swordsman said hurriedly.
"Aiya … Senior Brother Bai, it's rare for Senior Sister Yunrong to return home. Why do you urge her to go back?"
The red-clothed young girl glanced at Shao Yunrong with a faint smile and said, "Alright, alright. Let's go back first."
… …
Night.
Xiao Han followed Ah Chou and his family back to the mansion.
Xiao Han was settled in a quiet and elegant courtyard.
"Xiao Han, do you really intend to stay in our Shao Clan for a while?" Ah Chou and Xiao Han sat on a stone bench in the courtyard.
"Yes, Senior Brother Ah Chou. Anyway, there's still more than a month before the outer court ranking competition. I'm not in a hurry to return to the sect.
I'll just relax in the secular world for a few days.
Of course, I can't just focus on playing. I also need to go into seclusion to comprehend martial skills. "Xiao Han smiled and said.
"Damn, Xiao Han, you really don't forget to cultivate at all times." Ah Chou laughed involuntarily.
"Of course, in the outer court ranking competition, I also have a lot of pressure to completely crush Xue Jianfeng with an absolute advantage …" Xiao Han said truthfully.
"Moreover, my ultimate goal is to break through to the True Qi Realm. This is even more difficult."
"Xiao Han, you have lofty ambitions. I can't compare to you.
However, after this clan meeting, my spirit seems to have undergone some transformation and I also desire to become stronger.
Of course, I can't be as monstrous as you. I can only tailor my clothes and do it step by step. "Ah Chou's eyes also flashed with determination.
"Alright, Xiao Han, when you go into seclusion to cultivate, I will also continue to comprehend the Withered Tree Treasure Record!
This year's outer court ranking competition, I will also go all out!
In the sect, everyone looks down on me, Ah Chou. This time, I will amaze the world with a single brilliant feat! "
The two chatted for a while before Ah Chou left.
Xiao Han boiled water and soaked himself in a hot bath before lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.
The second day.
Xiao Han finished his lunch and sat cross-legged beside the pond in the courtyard.
Leaves rustled in the courtyard.
Pieces of withered leaves fell into the pond. When the wind blew, the entire pond was wrinkled. The leaves swayed on the surface of the water. The edges of the leaves continuously cut the water surface. It actually faintly revealed a sharpness similar to the edge of a blade. It was extremely artistic.
"Let's start cultivating!"
Xiao Han spat out a mouthful of turbid air. Suddenly, densely packed light cocoons gushed out from his heart!
… …
Five days later.
Xiao Han stood in the courtyard with his eyes slightly closed.
In the next moment …
Xiao Han opened his eyes. A ray of lightning like radiance flashed across Xiao Han's eyes. Deep within his eyes, saber aura flourished. Saber intent was born and extinguished, continuously condensing. It was as if it wanted to shoot out from Xiao Han's eyes and kill everything.
"Pu!
Pu!
Pu!
Pu! "
Pieces of leaves flew above Xiao Han's head. Before they fell, they were cut by the formless saber aura. Every leaf was cut into two, two into four, four into eight, eight into sixteen … Finally, they were cut into powder.
Xiao Han raised his right hand and formed a saber with his hand.
"Xiu ~ ~ ~ ~ ~"
A saber aura left his hand and shot towards a fake mountain twenty steps away.
Unexpectedly, just as this sharp saber aura was about to touch the fake mountain, it suddenly exploded!
"Pu ~ ~ ~ ~"
A saber aura exploded and split into a sky full of light rain. It swirled around and enveloped the fake mountain!
Traces of broken jade appeared in the air.
In a flash …
"Bang!"
The fake mountain that was ten feet tall was actually turned into powder by the saber rain. When the wind blew, it rustled and scattered.
Xiao Han sheathed his saber.
"This Broken Jade Style is indeed extraordinary. It simply can break everything with irresistible force." Xiao Han smiled with satisfaction.
At the same time …
"Boom ~ ~ ~ Boom ~ ~ ~ Boom ~ ~ ~ Boom ~ ~ ~ ~"
Inside Xiao Han's body, abundant heat flow was rushing and rolling. That heat flow seemed to be pouring out of Xiao Han's body.
Moreover, under the washing of this monstrous heat flow, Xiao Han's internal organs, bones, muscles, and tendons glowed with the violent vitality of a wild beast.
It grew and multiplied without end.
"I have also practiced the next ten moves of the Indestructible Golden Body. The heat flow in my body has almost doubled. Now, ordinary martial artists of the Physical Body Realm can't kill me at all!
Unless they directly attack my head. "Xiao Han was very confident.
"Broken Jade Style, Indestructible Golden Body, and personally leading the army." A trace of confidence flashed across the corner of Xiao Han's mouth.
"Now, if I want to defeat Shao Yunrong, I almost don't need to be in a stalemate. Once I start fighting, I will be swift and decisive. I will crush her instantly!"
"Xue Jianfeng …" Xiao Han's eyes slightly narrowed. "Outer Sect Ranking Competition, I will be waiting for you …"
At this moment, Ah Chou's voice sounded outside …
"Xiao Han."
Xiao Han withdrew his aura and smiled. "Senior Brother Ah Chou, come in."
The door opened.
Ah Chou smiled and walked in. "Xiao Han, you have been in seclusion for a few days. Do you have any interest in going out for a walk? You haven't come to Scorching Flame City yet. Have some fun."
"Hehe …" Xiao Han stretched his body. "Alright, Senior Brother Ah Chou, bring me out to play.
These few days, I have been practicing diligently and my mind is also very tired. I also need to relax. "
The two of them left the side courtyard one after another and shuttled through the maze-like Shao Family Mansion.
"Xiao Han, let's go. Cousin Yunrong is waiting for us outside." Ah Chou smiled.
"Uh?
Shao Yunrong? "Xiao Han was stunned.
"She is going too?"
"Yes, yes. Cousin Yunrong is going out to play with us." Ah Chou rubbed his hands. "Xiao Han, I am basking in your light.
You should know that Cousin Yunrong is an outstanding person in our Shao Family. She usually doesn't even talk to me, much less go out to play with me.
This time, she must have taken the initiative to invite us because of you. "
"What?
Or she took the initiative to invite us out to play? "Xiao Han was speechless.
"Why, Xiao Han, you don't want to play with Cousin Yunrong?" Ah Chou asked curiously.
"Not really … Forget it. Let's go.
Let's go out to play. "Xiao Han shrugged indifferently.
"Oh right, Senior Brother Ah Chou, bring me to eat the most famous snacks in Scorching Flame City later."
