Heaven-Defying Sovereign – Part 1 | The Cliff That Defies Gods | Xianxia Cultivation Audiobook

prologue on Divine Secret Mountain. Cloud's Endcliff was the most harmful of the four deadliest places on Azure Cloud continent. Cloud's Endcliff was often called the Grim Reaper Cemetery. During the countless years, people that fall off this cliff were far too many to count. None survived, including three god tier overlords whose power could lead them into the sky. At this moment, on the edge of this cliff, a black-haired, blackeyed youth leaned on the side of a rock that measured two people in height. There was blood everywhere on top of his black clothing with many open wounds on his person. He was on the rock for just a few breaths worth of time. Yet under his feet was already a pool of blood. His chest heaved, and it could be said that the pace at which he breathd was heavy enough to cause fear in a person. On his entire body, every one of his muscles trembled slightly, indicating his exhaust and loss of strength. If it weren't for this giant rock, he probably would not even be able to stand on his own. However, both of his eyes were cold and calm like two cold blades shining with the ferocity of wolves. The edge of his mouth sneered with extreme disdain. In front of him stood a dark crowd of people that have blocked all his escape routes. Yani, you're cornered. If you obey us and hand over the sky poison pearl, perhaps we may allow you to live. Today, we're going to enforce justice on behalf of heaven to get rid of this scourge. If you hurry up and quickly surrender the sky poison pearl, we can let you die a happy death or you will taste the pain of a thousand blades in your heart. Yanqi, stop being so stubborn. Your only way out is to hand over the sky poison pearl. You're unworthy of such holy object. Waves of roar came from the crowd with everyone there shouting words like justice and righteousness. If anyone from the Azure cloud continent passed by, they would be stunned by this scene. This dark crowd of people consisted of the strongest clans of the Azure cloud continent. The leaders of the clans were all present and even some of the forgotten old members were there as well. It is not too far-fetched to say that if you pick anyone out from this crowd, he would be someone that can shake any region. Now they were all gathered for this youth who has been pushed to the edge of this cliff. Specifically for the sky poison pearl in his hand, the number one holy object of Azure cloud continent. While slowly approaching, the crowd shouted with threatening menace. When the sky poisoned Pearl finally showed up again, they were faced with this irresistible treasure once more. After hunting for three full days, they could not wait to harvest the fruits of their labor. You guys want this sky poison pearl? Yani laughed coldly. As he slowly raised his right hand, a jade green ball with a dim radiance appeared in his hand. The moment this pearl glowed, everyone stopped in their tracks. Staring tightly at the green pearl, their eyes shone with greed. To Yani, these people who are strong enough to scare the world looked filthy and sly. He slowly raised his eyes. Although cornered, his pupils shone with arrogance and mockery. There is clear hatred deep in his eyes. My master spent his life trying to save the world. He saved countless people seeking neither benefit nor fame. But because of this sky poison pearl, you guys from the so-called justice sect killed my teacher 7 years ago. I hate hate myself for being so useless that I didn't finish all of you dog justice sex off in these seven years. Every word of his contained deep-seated hatred. Although it has been 7 years, just thinking about the death of his teacher still made bloody tears stream down the edge of his eyes. Yani did not know who his parents were for when his teacher found him. It seemed like he was only a few days old. It was deep in the springtime when his teacher picked up Yani. The clouds were scattered, the wind was light, the mountains spiritual, and the water crystal clear. He named the child Yani in hope his heart would be as pure as clouds and as clear as water. So that when he grows up, he will inherit his craft as a healer to rescue the dying and cure the injured with a heart void of corruption. No matter how serious the disease or trauma, teacher could clear them all. This was due to the sky poison pearl hidden in his body. The two words sky poison meant that this pearl was highly toxic. But medicine and poison are of the same origin. Teacher never used its poison. He only used alchemy to extract, melt, and in the end produce holy medicines to save millions of lives. He taught all his medical skills to Yani thoroughly, but 7 years ago, word of his sky poison pearl was spread. He gave it to Yani and told him to escape. Shortly afterwards, he died at the hands of the major sects. When news of his teacher's death reached Yanqi, he cried for three days and three nights. The root of hatred was firmly planted inside his heart, and he no longer practiced in the medical, but instead he absorbed poison from the pearl. Revenge became his only belief. After 7 years, he mastered the poison and bared the fangs of revenge. In less than 10 days, the poison spread not only thousands of miles, killing countless people, but also panic and horror throughout the azure cloud continent. It attracted the strong and mighty, for they were fascinated by this treasure. This started the hunt of Yani in order to obtain the sky poison pearl to the situation right now. He glared at everyone in his field of vision with hatred in his eyes and laughed coldly. As soon as his laughter reached the level of ice, he roared. You son of a beaches. You want my sky poison pearl? You are all daydreaming. After making this deep proclamation, Yani suddenly raised his hand and threw the sky poison pearl in his mouth. He then pushed the pearl down his throat and it instantly rushed straight into his stomach. What? What are you doing? He actually swallowed the sky poison pearl. Yani, do you want to die that badly? It's fine. No big deal. We will kill him and take the pearl. The sky poison pearl entered his body, but the poison didn't spread out in his body and kill him like they thought it would. A faint green light emitted from the surface of his body. Kill him now. Otherwise, the sky poison pearl may change inside his body. That would be a huge problem. Roaring, a dozen people in the front row went for Yani at the same time. Looking at the bodies of people that he wanted to destroy, Yani began to laugh. His laughter was weak and dry, but still very arrogant. I don't have the ability to kill you guys, but don't think that you can kill me. You pieces of trash are not worthy of this sky poison pearl, but even more unworthy of killing me. If I die, I would die by my own hands. Haha. After laughing, Yani used every bit of his last strength to jump backwards. Stop him. Several hands reached out to Yani after realizing his intent, but could not even grasp half his shadow. They could only watch as his body free fall down into the valley. Clouds end cliff. It is very suitable for I Yani's grave. T L Yan equals cloud. There is nothing to hold me back for I no longer have ties in this world. Unfortunately, I could not avenge my teacher nor find my biological parents. Yani gently held the silver pendant in front of his chest. It was the only thing he had on him when his teacher found him. The wind screamed past his ears as he slowly closed his eyes and let his body plunge deep into the seemingly endless dark abyss. Yani's consciousness gradually awakened. What's going on? How is it that I have not died? I vividly remember that I jumped off clouds end cliff. How can I still be alive? Somehow my body is not in pain and I do not even feel the slightest discomfort. How is this happening? Yani suddenly opened his eyes and quickly sat up. He found himself in a comfortably soft bed with a red banner hanging above him, rendering a festive atmosphere. A Xyrochi, Yu, youu woke up. A girl's gasp of surprise was heard from his ear, and the same girl appeared in his line of sight. At a glance, the girl dressed in green looked to be 15 or 16 years of age. She was as fair as snow with charming rosy lips and a delicate nose. A touching look of deep surprise was expressed by eyes as clear and transparent as a pool of translucent spring water. Her face exuded a dazzling gentleness and softness. At this young age, she already exhibited such charm. who can possibly imagine what sort of beauty she would be in the future. Staring at the nearby girl, Yani took a closer look and unconsciously let two words escape his lips. Little aunt. The fair girl lifted her jade-like hands onto Yani's forehead and relaxed soon after. With a joyful expression, she spoke. How delightful. Your temperature is almost back to normal. You nearly scared me to death. Xyrochi, are you okay? Tell me if you feel uncomfortable anywhere. In the face of the girl's eyes that filled with deep concern, Yani wouldn'tly shook his head. He stared openly into space with a vacant gaze. Rest here for a while. I'll go and tell your grandpa that you're awake. Today is your day. When you fainted, your grandfather almost went crazy and personally went to find Dr. Sidto for you. The girl was in such a rush that she did not notice the abnormality of Yani's current state. She pushed Yani's shoulders, signaling him to lie back on the bed, and hurriedly left. As the door shut, Yani sat up on the bed, hands clutching his head. This was one of the cities in the Far East, located in one of the seven empires of the profound sky continent, Floating Cloud City. And he was the only grandson of the fifth elder in the Xio clan, Xioi. He had just turned 16 this year. That was his current identity. Suddenly, his memory overlapped with Azure Cloud continents 20 or so years of memory, and he burst into confusion. If I am Xyrochi, then why do I have memories of Azure Cloud Continent? Is it because I traveled to this body after I died in Azure Cloud Continent? No, I am obviously Xiochi. This entire room is familiar to me and I clearly remember all the events of my childhood. Everything from my memory was from personal experience and there is no way I would steal another's memory. Then was everything from Azure Cloud continent all just a dream. Was it only after I jumped off Juan cliff that I truly woke up? But the memories of living in Azure cloud continent were as clear as day. How could those 24 years of love and hatred be only just a dream? What the hell is going on, Yani? The now Zyro Chi stilled for a long time as he slowly calmed down and settled his thoughts. It was still early in the morning and the sky has not fully brightened. Today was his and Zia clan's big wedding day. Two hours ago, he was woken up by his little aunt and put on his red wedding robe. He ate the porridge his little aunt personally made and lost all the strength in his body. He did not remember anything that happened after that. He did not wake up until now. A strange smell came from his lips and Xio's lips tucked slightly. His expression darkened. This is murdering heart powder. In those years that he lived on Azure cloud continent with a sky poison pearl in his body, Yani learned about all the poisons present in the entire world. And it could be said that there is no poison he was not familiar with. He could identify a poison's name and effect with just a whiff. At the same time, because the sky poisoned Pearl, he was impervious. He could not be hurt by any poison, no matter how toxic it was. Murdering heart powder was made by combining a unique soul grass and the purple stry from a cherry apple tree. If dissolved in water, the poison is colorless and tasteless. A person would lose his life 10 seconds after the poison entered the body, and nobody would know the cause of death, for it was also a traceless poison. Xyrochi's eyes clouded over and instantly understood what had happened. In fact, he did not really faint, but instead he drank the porridge containing the murdering heart powder, but was poisoned to death. He was born in Azure Cloud continent, but after he leapt off Juan Cliff. He was actually reincarnated in this world inside a dead body. If one were to hear this, it would sound like it came from one of the stories in Arabian Nights, but that was the only reasoning Xioi could imagine. Wait a minute. If it really was like that, then this body should have no antitoxin ability. How come he was safe from the murdering heart powder on his lips when the previous body's owner died not too long ago? A slightly strange feeling came from the palm of his left hand. Xioi lifted his left hand and was surprised to find that there was a circular green imprint on his palm. This shape, this color, this size, was clearly the same as the sky poison pearl. Before jumping off Juan cliff, he had desperately swallowed the sky poison pearl, but he did not actually know what would happen to him. This mark on his hand was unexpectedly the sky poison pearl, and it actually crossed over with him to this world. As if in a trance, Xioi stared at the sky poison pearl and subconsciously whispered, "Sky poison pearl." As his voice dropped off, the green mark on his palm suddenly released a green light. Immediately, a slight dizziness came over him, and he unconsciously closed his eyes. When he opened them, his entire world was flooded in green. This world of green was wide and open. There were no boundaries to be seen and there was a faint scent of the sky poison pearl throughout this space. After a long days, Xioi understood that he had entered the world inside the sky poison pearl. Who would have thought that inside the sky poison pearl, there would be such a wide and open world. What was even more unimaginable was that after he'd ate the sky poison pearl without thinking of the consequences, the sky poison pearl had actually traveled along with him. and even seemed to have become a part of his body. If there was a way in, there must be a way out. Xyrochi closed his eyes and concentrated his thoughts. Suddenly, the world of green hastily dissipated, and when he opened his eyes again in his vision was the room he was familiar with, staring at the faint green mark in his palm, Xioi slowly smiled. Even though it was not known why this ridiculous event occurred, not only had he reincarnated, but also retained memories from both lives. Maybe even the gods couldn't watch the suffering of the two lives, took pity, and gave him a chance to live again. Yanqi was the victim of persecution from Azar Cloud continent's countless strongest individuals. Although he died in the end, he shook the world by himself. How all inspiring and astonishing was that? However, his body right now was only average. No, speaking without restraints, it could be considered the epitome of weakness. In profound sky continent, profound strength was most important. Although Xio Chi was born in the Xio clan and was even the grandchild of the strongest fifth elder Xio, his profound power was still at level one in the elementary profound realm. Even though he is already 16, he started training his spirit power when he was 7 and a half, entered elementary profound level one at the age of 8, and then didn't improve for an entire 8 years. He was mocked by all of the Xio clan. Afterwards, Xoli invited floating Cloud City's top class doctor, Dr. Cedo, to examine his body and shockingly found that Xioi was born with damaged profound veins. The damage was so severe that it was almost impossible to recover from. In this state, Xio Chi would stagnate at first level of the elementary profound realm and could never improve further no matter how hard he worked. Even if he trained with his life on the line, he would stay at first level of the elementary profound realm his entire life. This kind of person was unquestionably the lowest existence in the profound sky continent and was a total laughingstock within the Xio clan. If not for for his grandfather Xio lie being the strongest in the Xio clan, who also could even be said to be the strongest in the floating cloud city, no one would bat an eye against him. Xio clan was one of the three major families that trained in the ways of the profound in the floating cloud city and has limitless strong entities. In the large number of youths coming forth from the same generation, Xioqi can be said to be an unnecessary existence. Even if he died someday, not many except a few would care. But there were some today that actually tried to murder him using the extremely hard to get and expensive murdering heart powder. Xioi clearly knew the reason why now because today was the wedding day between him and Zia Kingu. Ziaingu being the same age as him was also 16. However, at such a young age, her profound strength was stated to have reached the 10th level of the elementary profound realm. Almost breaking out of the elementary level and stepping into the nent profound realm. She was the only one in a 100red years that has reached this level of profound strength at the age of 16 in the Zeia clan. There are even rumors that if she continued to develop this way, a few decades later, she would be the first person in the history of the Zeia clan to ever step into the earth profound realm or may even be able to reach the sky profound realm that no one in floating cloud city had even thought of reaching in the past few centuries. More importantly, she was not only shockingly astute, but also extremely beautiful and was considered to be the most beautiful girl by the entire Floating Cloud City. All a floating cloud city's youths with some level of competency drooled over her. If the Zeia clan started to look for grooms, the line waiting would probably be long enough to stretch between the south and north gates of floating cloud city. This pinnacle of a girl with both intelligence and beauty in the floating cloud city, was actually marrying the generation's most worthless youth with no future at all. Who knew how many people were stomping their feets in anger and jealousy? This was wholly a case of a dazzling lotus flower planted on a pile of manure that no one would even bother to look at. The ones that had unrequited love for Zeia Kingu, of course, held both extreme jealousy and hatred towards Xioi. Even more, were unwilling to give up and would try to assassinate him by poison. As the current Xioi thought about it, this situation didn't seem to be bizarre at all. Women are really the root of troubles. Xiochi got off the bed, stood up, and siloquized. But as he thought of the beauty and charm of Zia Kingu that could tip over a whole city, he opened his mouth and laughed heartily. Still, I get to marry such a bride. This really was a good beginning. At this time, he was wearing a red wedding robe in a room plastered everywhere with double happiness, red cloth. Last night, his grandfather Xio Lie and his aunt Xio Lynxy personally arranged this handiwork. His bedroom had been transformed into a wedding room. Suddenly, the door opened and an ethereal figure hastily came in. Xioi immediately stood up and smiled. Aunt is grandfather back. Xio Linksy was Xoli's daughter from when he was middle-aged. Although she was Xioi's aunt, she had only turned 15 this year and was one year younger than Xioi. She was still quite young, but her beauty was already charmingly touching. Her profound strength level was at the early sixth level of the elementary profound realm. But even though she is not on par with Zia Kingu if compared, her spirit level wasn't that bad since she was an important asset to the XO clan and was held in high regard. Oh, Chair, you have finally woken up. A gentle voice spread across the room as Xoli entered. Seeing Xioi already out of bed with a normal complexion, Xoli relaxed a bit. Behind him followed his housekeeper, Xyro Hong, and the number one doctor in floating Cloud City, Dr. Cedo. It's good that you have woken up and you do not look ill anymore. But let Dr. Sito examine you. Today is your wedding day and we cannot have the slightest error. Dr. Cedto, please go ahead. Xoli stepped aside during his speech. Dr. Cedo put his medicine chest onto the table and sat in front of Xioi, lifting his hands to finger the pulse on Xioi's wrist. After a while, he took his hands off Xioi. Dr. Cedo, how is Xyochi's condition? Is it serious? Xolini asked worriedly with fearful nervousness etched on her face. Although he did not speak, Xyroi appeared solemn and had a fierce look on his face. How could he not be aware that Xyrochi's sudden collapse was strange? Dr. Cedo<unk>'s face slowly lit up and eased into a smile. Elder Xio, you do not need to worry. Your grandson's physical condition is excellent. He has no major ailments or even the slightest cold. Perhaps your grandson fainted because he was so nervous and excited that his blood rushed to his head. After all, your grandson is marrying Zia Clan's daughter, the number one beauty in floating Cloud City. Haha. Although Dr. Cedo tried to conceal his contempt, his words revealed his regret. A talented woman marrying a useless good for nothing with no future was truly hard for someone to accept. That's great news. Xoli sighed in relief and nodded in thought. It must be hard on Dr. Sito to be pulled over so early in the morning. Hong, escort Dr. Sidto to the living room to rest. It's<unk> fine, Dr. Sito replied with a wave of his hand and lifted his medicine chest. Since your grandson is all right, I will take my leave. Congratulations to Elder X on meeting Floating Cloud City's most outstanding granddaughter-in-law. I do not know how many people must envy you right now. Haha. Farewell. You must remember to come to the wedding for a drink. Hong, escort Dr. Sidto out. Chair, are you really all right? Do you feel unwell anywhere? Xoli was still not assured after Dr. Sidto left and scowlled in thought. When Xyrochi suddenly collapsed, his temperature dropped and his vitality faded away. This cannot only be a result of being too excited. Looking at Xyrochi's present healthy condition, he indeed looks fine right now, but Xyroi still could not shake off that small doubt deep in his heart. I really am all right, grandfather. You can rest assured, Xioi said with an easy expression. His nose could not help but suddenly sour as he looked at Xio Li and he see a worried face with a head full of white hair. The Xio clan consists of five elders and although Xoli was the fifth elder, he was the strongest in the clan. 5 years ago, he entered the border of the spirit profound realm's 10th level. He was now at the peak of the spirit profound realm's 10th level and has an opportunity to break past the profound realm. A level that countless people dream of. Xoli was only 55 years old this year with the strength of the 10th level in profound spirit realm. But all his hair had already turned white. Every time Zyroi saw this head full of white hair, his heart became bitter at the sight. The reason why Zyro Li had white hair since his middle-aged years was known to all the people living in Floating Cloud City. His only son, the father of Xyroqi, Xyro Ying was called the number one genius of floating cloud city. At the age of 17, he broke into the nent profound realm. At 20, he reached the fifth level of the nent profound realm. At 23, he broke through the nent profound realm and entered the true profound realm, shocking all people of floating cloud city. He became the Xyro clan's pride as well as Xyro Liy's pride and joy. Almost everybody believed that when Xyro Ying became middle-aged, he would be the best candidate qualified to inherit the leadership of the Xyro clan. Unfortunately, perhaps God was jealous of the elite, for there was an assassination attempt on Xyro Ying<unk>s life, only a month after Xyrochi was born. A few days before that, Xyroying also saved the life of Zia Clan's daughter. After this rescue, Xio Ying only could fend off the assassins with half his usual strength and drew his final breath. His wife's heartbroken grief for the loss of her love and went to meet him soon after. Xoli's hair became white overnight due to the heavy blow of losing his son. 9 months later, Xio Lynxy was born. Her mother also suffered from the tortured pain of losing her only son and died of depression a month later. Nobody knew how Xyro Li lived his life the years after both his son and wife passed away. His pale white hair contained immeasurable grief, hatred, and a deep unspeakable sorrow. To this day, Zyro lie still has not found his son's murderer. Later on, he put all his hopes and wishes onto Xyroqi. But the brutal truth of him being born with a damaged, profound vein entered and left his life out of the blue like a bolt of lightning. However, facing his hopeless grandson, Zyoli never showed any signs of disappointment nor fury. In his point of view, being born with a broken, profound vein meant that fate had been unfair, and that he should not be condemned because such injustice. He should not be indifferent or ridicule Xioqi, but instead should love him more for to compensate for it. Over the years, he has always been seeking any possible ways to repair a damaged profound vein. However, the profound vein is the lifeline of one's profound strength, how can it be easily repaired? Although Xyrochi was ignored by others and was faced by the mocking eyes of others growing up, he still felt lucky to have such a grandfather. Looking at Xio's piercing white hair, Xioi's eyes gradually sharpened. Since the gods gave me this second chance and let me have both my memories, even if it is to only comfort my grandfather, I have to live vigorously. So what if my profound vein is broken? I am a medical saint successor. As long as I find the right medicine in a short span of 3 weeks, I could fully restore my profound vein back to normal. You're all right. That's wonderful to hear. Watching him, Xoli was finally rest assured. Glancing at the brightening sky, he spoke. Chi, the hour is nigh. Go make your preparations while I go arrange the wedding team. Oh, right. Do you want to ride horseback or sit in the carriage? If he was yesterday's Xiochi, he would definitely have answered the carriage. Although he was the only grandson of an elder, without that status, he could be called a good for nothing with a world's difference between him and Zia Kingu. On his bridal path to the Zeia clan, there would be no doubt that he would suffer countless fingerpointing, but also bear numerous glances of envy and regret. One can imagine what feelings would surface if one met face to face in front of such negative emotion. Xioi laughed with a slight smile. Of course, I'm riding on the horse. You do not have to worry about me, grandfather. Zia Kink may be nobility, but she is already faded to be our XO family's daughter-in-law. I will openly wet her home with dignity and honor to not let you lose face. There was a delay in Xio Li's expression, for he would never have thought that his grandson would say such a thing. His face then broke into a gentle smile, and he slowly nodded. Good. With just one word, his deep satisfaction came through. Xoli stepped out of the room and gently closed the door. As soon as Xoli left, Xio Linky stood in front of Xioi and curled her lips. Her face warped in unhappiness. She spoke. So, you actually are excited for this marriage and made me worry for you in vain. You obviously have not met Ziaingu that many times, but you are already fond of her. Oh, right. She is our floating cloud city's number one beauty, huh? Xioi quickly waved his hands back and forth. How's that possible? Zia Kingu is quite beautiful, but I think little aunt is prettier. If I really fainted because of her, then I would not know how many times I would have fainted in this lifetime because little aunt always accompanies me everyday. He he links face immediately broke into a sweet smile and giggled. You know just the thing to say to make me happy. It is fine if Zyrochi fainted in his rush to marry her because Zia Kingu is beautiful as she is talented. The Zia clan is also the wealthiest clan in floating cloud city. So there is quite a lot of people who dream of marrying her. However, she eventually is about to marry my family's Xioi. At this point, Xio Linksy wore a proud look on her face. Then her eyes became wistful as her voice gentled. I feel like this day came so quickly. Xiochi is already about to be married. Pound pound. A knock on the door was followed by the voice of old housekeeper Xio Hongang. Young master, it is almost time to go and meet your bride. Ah, already. Xio Linkxy glanced at Xioi's clothes and suddenly looked anxious. Uncle Hong, wait a little while longer and we will come out right away. She walked in front of Xioi and a pair of soft hands began to quickly tidy his wedding clothes. This outfit is quite hard to put on. Your clothes are in a mess because of the events earlier. Stand still. I will finish this right away. A pair of snow white delicate hands began to work hurriedly. She flipped his collar back to the proper face and refassened his loose belt. Her actions were jerky, but she took it seriously and paid careful attention to what she did. Xiochi silently looked at her and his eyes gradually became misty. Today he was going to marry Ziaingu, but he knew for sure that Ziau was not marrying him because she sincerely loved him. If it wasn't for their fathers, Xio Zing and Zia Hungi<unk>s agreement that March, Zia Kingu would not even have bothered to take a glance in his direction. The only people in this world who were kind to Xio Chi are only his grandfather Xi and his little aunt Xoliny. During his earliest childhood, Xio Linkxy stuck to Xioi like a piece of candy. She followed him wherever he went. It was hard for him to shake her off. If she did not see him for a while, she would cry loudly. However, when Xioi turned 10 years of age and it was confirmed that his profound vein was damaged, Linkxy seemed to grow up overnight. She knew the consequences of having a broken profound vein and then understood the concept of her identity as his little aunt. This started her regime of training in the ways of the profound to protect the life of the weaker Xioi. After Azure Cloud continent's 24 years of dreams, Xiochi felt that his time here with Xio Lynxy's kindness was as luxurious as it was precious. Although Ziaingu was about to become his wife, she would only be like the sky coldest moon, something to only be seen but not touched. If I marry a girl like little aunt, it would be perfect. These kinds of thoughts uncontrollably popped up in Xyrochi's state of mind. After completing the complex motions of dressing Xioi, Xolo Linkxy let out a sigh of relief. Tippy toeing, she lifted her hand and tousled his hair. With an expression of tender affection clearly printed on her face, her pink lips slightly parted like petals of a flower. With a supernatural speed, Xyrochi instinctively tilted his head and pressed his mouth against Xyro Lynxy's lusciously pink lips. "Ah!" Xoliny cried out and sprang backwards like a frightened rabbit. Her fingers touched her numb lips as her beautiful eyes widened in surprise, and a touch of red quickly spread from her fair face to the nape of her neck. "You, you kissed me again. You have the same reaction as usual." The innocent Xyro Chi had a heartbroken expression on his face. "When we were younger, we always played your favorite kiss kiss game. These days, you go into shock every time I try to kiss you. Yu Yuyu, you knew that was when we were kids." Xio Lynxy's face flushed into the color of a red rose. We're now adults and cannot afford to mess around. You You are soon to have a wife. In the future, you can only kiss your wife. Why? Because I'm your aunt. Xoly stomped her foot as she lost her breath. Then what do I do if I want to kiss you? Smiling mischievously, Xioi put his hand under his chin. Then you should marry me. Xoliny turned her nose up in anger. Hey, you're my aunt. How could I possibly marry you? Xiochi said with his voice lowered as his eyes widened. Even you know that if you dare steal another kiss, I'll let your wife know and let her handle you. Hmp phmpoly looked at him triumphantly with her nose in the air. Xio Hongs voice came from outside once again. Young master, are you ready? It's about time to go get the bride. Yes, I'm coming out now. Xioi looked at his current outfit and got ready to leave. After two steps, Xio Linksy grabbed his hand and said with a serious face, "Zioi, before leaving, repeat the promise we made yesterday, word for word, or I won't let you go." Yesterday's promise. Xiochi thought for a while and could not help but say, "All right, after entering the marriage with Zia Kingu, I won't forget about little aunt just because I have a wife. I'll spend the same amount of time with little aunt like before. I will listen to little aunts calls and would arrive as soon as I'm called, just like before." I don't think I forgot a word. Huh Hugh? What a good boy. Xoliny smiled sweetly but did not release Xioi's hand. However, we will be adding another one today. The one I forgot yesterday. Although Zia Kingu is about to become your wife, in your heart she cannot outweigh me. Repeat that right now. Hurry, hurry, hurry. Xioi gazed at her beautiful eyes and said, "If you kiss me, I will make that promise. Then marry me." Xioi was defeated. Young master, are you still not ready? It's forbidden to be past the auspicious time. Xio Hong<unk>s urgent voice came from outside again. Xiochi put his hand on the door but did not push it open yet. He whispered, "I can't make that promise because in my heart, you are already my number one. Even if there are a hundred Zeia King, she cannot catch up to you. You are irreplaceable." As his voice faded, he pushed the door open and left. Xio Lynxy stood still, frozen in place for a while. An arc formed at the edge of her lips, and she joyfully skipped out afterwards like a girl who was given her favorite candy. As Zyro Chi walked out of the room, his gorgeous wedding team awaited him. Xyro Hong kindly smiled at him. Young master, please get on the horse. On the way, I will be protecting you with everything I have. But of course, today is young master's big day. I should not worry that much since there would only be good things that are waiting to happen. Thanks, Grandpa Hong. Xiochi smiled at Xyro Hong and got on the horse. A gentle voice suddenly came from his left. Looks like I came at the just right time. Is brother Xioi going to retrieve his bride now? Felicitations. Xioi's eyebrows furrowed slightly at that sound and saw two young men slowly walk to his side. The person who spoke was a 20-year-old young man of medium build. He was as handsome as he was elegant. His eyes were crystal clear on top of a refreshing face, and he wore a bright smile. At his rear was a thinner, younger man. His footsteps followed quickly behind the speaker. Watching them, Xioi smiled. "Oh, it's brother Yulong and brother Xio Yang. Did you guys especially make this trip here to see me off?" Xio Yulong was the son of the leader of the Xio clan. At the age of 20, regardless of his appearance, his talent, use of speech, and wisdom was at the top of the younger generation in the Xio clan. His profound strength had reached the third level of the naent profound realm at the moment. He is his father, Xio Yunhis, pride and joy, and is also the future hope of the Xio clan. The clan had high expectations for him because he would become the next leader if no accidents should occur. He possessed many good qualities, but he had never been arrogant. He is one who was kind and polite to everyone, even towards Xioi, who was considered to be disabled in everyone's eyes. He has never mocked Xioi, but instead was as gentle as he was polite. Not only that, he frequently expressed signs of concern when faced with Xioi's damaged, profound, vain problem. Xyrochi had always liked Yulong. He admired and appreciated Yulong<unk>s kindness. Of course, those feelings came from the previous Xyrochi. The identity of the person behind Xio Yulong was also not that simple. He was not just an ordinary Xio clan disciple. He was the second elers's youngest grandson, Xio Yang. At the age of 19, he was at the ninth level of the elementary profound realm. Ever since he was a child, he always followed Xio Yulong around and listened to his every word. However, he wasn't as kind to Xioi as he was to X Yulong. Even though they were both grandsons of the elders, he never cared for Xio Chi. Whenever Xioi tried to strike up a conversation, he would either ignore or respond with an upturned nose. As the grandson of a Zo clan elder, not only did Xioi have his own housing, but he also owned a separate little courtyard. Aside from his grandfather Xi, his aunt Zo Lynxy, and his one best friend, very few people actually came to visit. At this time, Xio Yulong came with Xio Yang with the purpose of watching him go on his wedding journey. Haha, of course. Xio Yulong approached with a hearty laugh and said, "The person you are marrying today is our floating cloud city's number one brightest jewel. This is not only our Zia, O clan's big event, but is our floating cloud city's big event. Since you have the chance to marry this treasure, your brother here is very happy for you. Of course, I am also envious and ashamed as well." Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Xioi also laughed. Brother Yulong tells such a funny joke. With brother Yulong<unk>s talent, the entire women population of Floating Cloud City is yours to pick from. Young master, we must get going. Xio Hong warned. Brother Xioi, hurry up. We eagerly await for you to spectacularly bring in floating Cloud City's brightest jewel into the Xyro clan. Xyro Yulong said with a smile. Xyrochi nodded and immediately sat tight. The wedding escort team rode through the courtyard to the sound of the beating drums and gongs straight towards the Zia clan's home. The moment Zyro Chi disappeared from sight, Xyro Yulong<unk>s smile froze and darkened. He suddenly turned around and fiercely slapped Zyro Yang hard in the face. In a low voice, he hissed. Pathetic. Xyro Yulong<unk>s slap was a direct hit, and Xyro Yang<unk>s left cheek began to swell. He hurriedly scrambled at the foot of Xyro Yulong and fearfully spoke. I I clearly threw in the murdering heart powder and the message I received confirmed that he did collapse. I I also do not know what is going on here. Hmp Xio Yulong<unk>'s eyebrows tightened and distorted his face. I spent so much money to get the poison that not even Dr. Cedo has the cure to, but you screwed it all up. Don't tell me you want me to personally see Zia King you marry that wastel. Boss, that kid has only just left. We will have an opportunity on the wedding road. Although we cannot personally take care of this for fear of being seen, we can instigate a resistance army from the Yuan clan and others. There are other men of nobility who covet Ziaingu. Just listening to people speak about Zia King<unk>s marriage to Xio Chi would make their teeth itch. If we encourage them a little and go out together, we would be able to. If it was really that simple, why did I spend so much time getting the murdering heart powder? Xio Yulong coldly interrupted Xio Yang and continued. Xio Chi is a good for nothing, but his grandfather is at the 10th level of the profound spirit. Who would dare to offend him? Also, Zia King<unk>s father did not object to this marriage at all. Who would dare to openly offend the Zia clan and Xyro Chi? Even if the Yuan clan's boys grouped up with the governor<unk>'s boys, their family would obviously prevent them from doing anything. And didn't you see that old bastard Xio Hong personally escort him? With him around, how could any trouble start? While speaking, Xio Yulong clenched his hands. The sounds of bone being dislocated popped in the air. The first time he saw Zia Kingu, he thought that he encountered an angel and was already lost. From then on, he swore to make Zia Kingu his woman in this lifetime. But Ziaingu was actually going to marry Xlan's most despised Xiochi. How can he ever willingly accept that? boss. In fact, in fact, you do not need to worry that much. Xio Yang glanced at Xio Yulong<unk>s facial expression and carefully spoke. Think about it. With Zia King<unk>s temperament that never even bothered to glance at any of the talents in Floating Cloud City, would she even like that kid, Xio Chi? The only reason why she is marrying Xio Chi was because of an agreement made 16 years ago. If she marries into the family, it is absolutely impossible for Xio Chi to even touch her finger. After she has entered our XO clan, the chances of boss meeting her would be greatly increased. The good for-no Xioi is not comparable to the boss's natural handsomeness and talent. After a while, how could not impress that Zia Kingu? By that time, listening to Xio Yang<unk>s words, Xio Yulong<unk>s gloomy scowl began to stretch while his narrow eyes squinted. He touched the tip of his nose with his finger and whispered, "You made a pretty reasonable point. Looks like not being able to poison that waistrol to death can also be a good thing. Floating Cloud City was the smallest city of the Blue Wind Empire. It was so small that it wasn't even suitable to be called a city. Perhaps calling it a town would be far more appropriate. Floating Cloud City was not only the smallest city, but was also the most geographically remote in terms of location. The population, economy, and even the average profound strength was the lowest of the low. These days, Floating Cloud City's residents often mock themselves for being a forgotten corner in the Blue Wind Empire. Floating Cloud City was particularly lively today, for it was Xio Chi and Zia King's big wedding day. Nobody would care if it was only Xioi's wedding, but Zeia Kingu's marriage was floating Cloud City's biggest sensational event. The Zeia clan was not a clan that solely trained in the arts of the profound. It was a clan that specialized in business for generations. Although they could not be said to be wealthy amongst others of the Blue Wind Empire on Floating Cloud City's list of the most prosperous clans, the Zeia clan was at the top. However, this did not mean that the Zeia clan was weak. With their abundant wealth, they could naturally afford to hire experts to protect their vast fortune. The leader of the Zeia clan had two children, Zeia Yuanba and Zia Kingu. Both his son and daughter had no interest in the family business. They solely focused on training in the ways of the profound. Zia Hungi had never opposed to their decision and instead allowed them to continue their path. After Ziaingu surprised Floating Cloud City with her talent, it was even more unlikely that he would prevent her growth. Due to Ziaingu's amazing god-given gift, Floating Cloud City's major families were on their best behavior in their presence. After all, it was widely acknowledged that Zia Kingu may reach the Earth profound realm or even the sky profound realm someday in the future. At that point, the Zeia clan would not only have the most wealth, but would also be the most dominating force in Floating Cloud City. However, that Zeia clan had let the city's most brilliant girl marry Xio Chi, a good for nothing with no possible future. Who knows how many people regret that decision. Of course, there were more people with feelings of envy and jealous hate. Since it was the Zeia clan marrying off a daughter, the spectacle was indeed not too shabby. As soon as Xioi went out, he saw a long line of red carpet that began from his doors entrance. This red carpet was the Xio Clan starting point, and it extends in twists and turns towards the direction of the Zeia clan. As soon as the Zo clan's wedding team appeared, floating Cloud City street started to bustle with noise. The street was full with spectators on both sides of the street. As Xiochi kept pace with the team, various whispers from the crowd entered his ears. Look, that is the grandson of Xio Clan's fifth elder. I heard rumors that his profound vein is damaged, and he would never in his life be able to break through into even the first level of the elementary profound realm. Oh, this is the first time I've seen him in person. It's normal if you haven't seen him before. With such a stubborn bull for a grandfather and the fact that he is a good for nothing himself, would you even have the face to go out? Oh, for Ziaingu to actually be married to such a person, God must really be blind. It is said that his father Xio Ying and Xia Hongi became sworn brothers when Xio Ying saved Ziaingu<unk>s life after using most of his profound strength. Zia Hungi then promised that on his daughter Ziaingu's 16th birthday, she would become Xio Ying<unk>s daughter-in-law. Not long after, Xio Ying fell to an assassin. Due to his previous exertion, he was unable to fight back. The news hit Zia Hongi like a meteorite, and he felt extremely guilty. Now that Kingu had finally turned 16 today, and although Xio Ying<unk>s son is a Zia Hungi was not willing to break his promise because of his heavy feelings of remorse and gratitude. If not for that, how could that guy even marry Ziaingu? What? Zia Kingu is our floating cloud city's greatest treasure. If he did not have his status of being the fifth elder's grandson, he could not even measure up to the mud on the floor. I am probably 100 times stronger than him. This world is so unfair. The goddess of my dreams is about to marry such a wastil. I rather die than accept this fact. Ah. The Xioi on horseback had bright, serene eyes that conveyed a deep character. He had on an elegant expression and exhibited a light grace. His long hair fluttered behind his dazzling red wedding robe, and his entire body emitted an air of elegance. The sounds of murmuring from the crowd contained all kinds of malicious undertones. However, the envy, resentment, prejudice, ridicule, scorn, and disdain from the crowd seemed to not faze him at all. He seemed to be unconscious of the crowd, a beautiful smile still on his face. It was not known how many girls lost their hearts as their eyes misted over in adoration. Although Xiochi's profound strength was the lowest of the low, his looks were actually not that bad. He could even be said to be beyond Xio Yulong. Coupled with the fact that he rarely went out due to his low profound strength, he looked very white and delicate, just like a living doll. So even if the countless youths hate Xyrochi enough to make their teeth itch in the depths of their heart, they also had to admit that he looked as if he was truly worthy of Zia Kingu. I thought that Xioqi would ride in the carriage today, but unexpectedly he is riding horseback. With that temperament, it seems as if the rumors were not true. The waistl that people typically look down on is about to marry our floating cloud city's greatest treasure. Of course, he should be proud. How could he be afraid of losing face, rang a bitter voice? I heard that Yuan clan's young master as well as other young masters from other families are taken with Zia Kingu. Do you think they will come to stop this procession? Yeah, right. Xioi is nothing, but his grandfather is Xoli. The experts of our floating cloud city all have to respect him in his presence. His son is already dead, and he only has one grandson left. He tended to his grandson from the very beginning of his life. If anyone were to cause trouble, they will meet Xoli's wrath. Whoever dares to do that will lose his head. Moreover, this is not a forced marriage. Who would dare to cause trouble to incur the wrath of the Zia clan? I estimate that right now all the lovesick youths who would actually disrupt the procession are firmly locked in their own house. The wedding procession went on in a casual manner, not too fast, but not too slow. The journey of 10 mi took nearly 1 and 1/2 hours. Brother-in-law. As soon as he saw the Zeclan's main entrance, he heard a wild cry. A tall, sturdy figure ran over to Xioi. This person was not that old, but he was at least 2 m tall. His body was as strong as a bull, and the ground trembled when he came over. As Xiroi watched him approach, he gulped bitterly and spoke with wide eyes. "You, I have not seen you for only a month. How could you already have grown that much taller?" Yet again, this man, it was more accurate to call him a boy, for he is Zia Kingu<unk>s little brother, Zia Yuan. He became 15 this year. Yes, he was really only 15 years old. However, if you take a look at his body, nobody would even imagine that he had just turned 15, 2 m tall. Zyrochi on his horse is the same height as Zia Yuan standing up. Yuana weighed over 175 kg. This number was definitely not that high because Yuan was fat, but instead was because of his big, strong muscles. His muscles were of a dark tan metallic luster and broadcasted his astonishing strength. His profound strength was only average at fourth level of the elementary profound realm, but his physical strength was a force to be reckoned with. He could fight on par with those at the sixth level of the elementary profound realm. Zia Yuanbo was Xiochi's best friend, his only friend. From a young age, he had always called Xiochi his brother-in-law, and they often played together when they were children. The days before he turned 8, Zia Yuan was actually a dark and skinny child. He was often bullied, but ever since he turned 8, it was like he ate something wrong and had an enormous growth spurt. His height, weight, and appetite all soared, and the increase in his strength was absolutely stunning. Now, at the age of 15, his face has not fully matured, for it was still quite childish, but his size, it was of a monstrous proportion. After hearing Xioi's exclamation, Zia Yuan rubbed his head in embarrassment. This even I cannot help it. My father tells me to go on a diet every day. However, letting myself starve and go hungry would be far worse than the feeling of being killed by another. Xioi became speechless. At that moment, he was only 15 years old. Once he becomes an adult, he didn't dare to imagine that. Xioi knew that Zia Yuan had a huge appetite. Fortunately, he was born in the Zeia clan, for if he was born in an ordinary family, his consumption would dissipate their entire fortune. He he brother-in-law, today you can finally become my brother-in-law. Zia Yuan's smile was honest because he had been happily looking forward to this day. In his opinion, with such a strong sister for a wife, nobody would dare look down on Xioi. Hurry up and come in. My sister is already ready. He slapped his head. Oh, I'll go open the door. After that, Zia Yuan turned in the direction of the Zia clan door and ran like a mobile mountain of meat. The procession came in the Zia clan's entrance. At the door, Xiochi saw a smiling Zia Hongi. He quickly dismounted and stood before Zeia Hongi. He respectfully greeted. Uncle Zia. Haha. After all this time, you still call me Uncle. Zia Hungi laughed. His stature was not tall, for he looked like normal, slightly overweight, middle-aged man. Although if one were to look at him, and the words simple and honest came to mind, nobody in the entire city of floating cloud would dare look down upon him. Xyrochi<unk>s eyes brightened and politely replied, "Father-in-law." He had always been respectful towards Zia Hungi, for Hungi was the sworn brother of his father. From a young age, he suffered through the scornful glances of many people, but Zia Hungi had always tenderly cared about him. Even though he was born with a disabled, profound vein, Zia Hungi had never violated the agreement he made with his father. The agreement that Ziaingu would marry Xio Chi once she became 16. Haha, good. Zia Hungi nodded. He reached out his hand and patted Xiochi's shoulder. Chair, starting today, I will give Zia Kingu to you. Although you are not a big hero, you are Xio Ying<unk>s son so I can have a piece of mind when I give you my daughter. Your father, Xio Ying, was an amazing man. Becoming his sworn brother is something I would never regret in this lifetime, for he was a passionate and righteous man. You are Xio Ying<unk>s son. Even though your profound vein is damaged, I do not believe that you will stay an ordinary person in the future. Treat my daughter well. For those who talk nonsense and can only flap their mouths in malice, screw them all. Xioi's eyes smoldered in anger. He firmly nodded his head slowly. Father-in-law have no worries. Although people hold me in contempt now once my profound vein is fixed, a sleeping dragon will be awakened from the abyss. I will make those people who look down on me and those who think that the Zeia clan took in a wastel for their son-in-law obediently shut their traps. Zia Hungi was surprised at his outburst. He had always known Xiochi to be weak-minded with a mild temper and an unconscious inferiority complex. Xiochi's fearless utterance, sharp eyes, and calmness made him see Xiochi in a brand new light, one that was completely different from his previous attitude. Good. Zia Hungi nodded and patted Xioi on the shoulder again. I knew that Xio Ying<unk>s son would not be an ordinary child. I will wait for the day this dragon surfaces. All right. Now Kingu is waiting for you. Go on. Zia Kingu appeared between the arms of two bridesmaids. She wore a red phoenix coronet on top of her head. A fine curtain of beads hung down from the phoenix coronet to completely cover her entire face while also hiding her current expression. Her soft and shiny black hair fell gently behind her shoulders. Her straight scarlet robe was decorated in the four happiness cloud pattern cloud pattern and the belt displayed her slender narrow waist nicely. On her belt hung a charm made of exquisite jade while pearls dangled at its tassels matching her golden shoes. These significant details made her magnificent outfit even more dazzling than ever. Ziaingu slowly came to Xioi's side in the arms of the bridesmaids and every step she made was light and elegant as if she were walking across the clouds. An ordinary person would look like they were walking but if they were in her body they would look like a fairy riding on top of a cloud. Her usual posture was already that beautiful and Xio Chi saw such a feast for the eyes. Zia Kingu finally came to the front of the carriage and the two bridesmaid walked away bowing backwards. In accordance to the Blue Wind Empire<unk>s wedding tradition, the groom will bring the bride onto the bridal chair. Xioi stepped forward and stretched out a helping hand at Ziaingu. Ziaingu elegantly lifted her hand. However, as Xyrochi took Ziaingu's hands in his palm, a piercing cold energy unraveled onto Xyrochi's hand, and his entire right arm stiffened in pain, half immobilized. The biting cold sensation slowly disappeared as Xyrochi put his arm down with a silent, indifferent expression. Aside from a frown between his eyebrows when the icy cold hit him, he did not make any other expression, nor the slightest sound. If one opened Zia Kingyu<unk>s curtain of fine beads, one would see her beautiful eyes flash in surprise and then hastily become cold once more. Xioi sat on the horse and the wedding procession went on with great strength and vigor. The Zia clan's wedding team followed in the direction of the XO clan shortly after. After another hour and a half, the procession returned to the Xio clan's main entrance. This long journey was smooth and calm to the disappointment of those who looked forward to the development of any drama. Xyro Li was already at the doorway and stood to welcome their guests. Sadly, the number of people who came for Xyroqi can be counted with one hand. Most of the guests came for Xyro Li and the Zia clan. With Xyro's fame and Zia clan's connection, many guests were seen. Outside the entrance of Xyro clan house, people who came to see the event was next to Infinite. The streets were so filled up that not even a water droplet could get through. All these people came for the marriage of the number one beauty in floating cloud city. Zeia Kingu<unk>s bridal carriage slowly stopped in the middle of the noise. A corner of the curtain was opened as her maid Zia Dongling gently spoke. "Miss, we have arrived." Afterwards, a hand reached out and Zia Dongling gently lowered her arms. As soon as she got out of the carriage, the deafening atmosphere suddenly quieted to replaced by deep breathes that followed one after another. It was almost noon. The soft sunshine reflected against her Phoenix coronet, while her robe charmingly glittered against the breeze, making one's eyes blur if they looked too long. Her hair was wrapped up high into a bun on top of her head. And the phoenix coronet that framed her head was that of four layers. The top layer was adorned with fine golden hair pins, while the bottom had several golden phoenix engravings. The satin red golden phoenix coronet extended into a fringe of swaying pearl tassels. Although her face was not laid bare, with her eyes and lips partly hidden, yet partly exposed, her beauty was exquisitly flawless. The sound of irreressible breathing overlapped against one another as many people stared straight ahead, unable to snap back into reality. That is the power of Zeia King<unk>s charisma. For this all happened without the revealment of her face. Based on her aura and posture alone, she still seemed like a fairy that had walked out straight from a painting. Her beauty was so immense that none could take their eyes off her. Zia Dongling wrapped a red silk sash around Ziaingu<unk>s hand. Naturally, the other end of the sash was tied to Xiochi's hand. As he got off the saddle, Xyrochi smiled as he walked over to lead Zeia Kingu across the braier. They cruised over the doorstep of the Xyro clan and stepped directly into the hall. Tl more info about why they walking over it. As they entered through the main entrance of the Xyo clan, the noise did not abate. Xioi's expression did not change as he kept pace, but he naturally wanted the wedding to end as soon as possible. This was Xio Clan's center hall for important meetings. The only people who were allowed to use this place for a wedding are the leader of the Xiao clan and its elders. For this wedding, the room underwent a large scale transformation. It was truly a vision that should be seen. As far as one could see, the pillars were all embedded with yellow topaz, and the walls had been painted with dragons that were inlaid with rare precious pearls. A red carpet spread across the center of the hall in a straight line and stopped at a short golden staircase. A subtle golden light filled the atmosphere, making the already beautifully decorated hall more dazzlingly eye-catching. The Xyro clan was not willing to invest such a large amount of money for Xyroqi and mostly came from the Zeia clan. Zahungi was willing to spend as much as needed for his darling daughter's wedding. Xyro Li and Zia Hungi sat on the highest seat of the hall, smiles plastered all over their face as they watched Xyrochi and Zeia Kingu enter. On both sides of the red carpet were three rows of rose sandalwood chairs, all already filled with people. Xio Clan's leader, Lord Xio Yunhai, was there as well, along with the other four elders of the XO clan. As Xiochi walked in with a happy smile, their expressions stillilled on the surface, but in the depths of their heart, they sneered in disdain. The Xyo clan was a clan that practiced in the ways of the profound for many generations. To have Xiochi with a crippled profound vein born in the clan was a shame for the Xio clan. If he were not the grandson of the fifth elder Xio, he would have already been expelled instead of remaining inside like he was now. And if it weren't for the fact that he was about to wed the high-profile daughter of the Zia clan. They would not even have bothered to show up in person, let alone be present at the scene. Regarding Xyochi, if they hear his name, they could only think of the word trash and not pay attention, for they do not even remember how he looked like. In the profound sky continent, one did not deserve dignity if one does not have the skill to back it up. It was a harsh reality and a universal truth followed by many, even towards members of the same clan. The expressions on the faces of the younger Zoho generation were unsurprisingly consistent as well. They all had their sights on Xyro Kingu and their eyes belied their insuppressible infatuation. As their eyes transferred towards Xyrochi, their eyes almost erupted with naked envy. The Xio clan's outer disciples had always looked down on this permanently disabled person and never in their dreams thought that he would actually marry Floating Cloud City's unattainable number one treasure. The uncomfortable feeling that those two people in the marriage hall evoked was similar to eating dead flies raw. The person in charge of the wedding was logistics manager Zoda. The wedding ceremony began at the cry of his voice. The master of ceremonies first introduced the bride and groom and then read names from a list of distinguished guests that have came to visit. As he went on, Xioi's expression remained neutral, but in his heart were clashing waves of water. Whatever else the master of ceremony said after that was something Xio Chi could not bother to listen to for he was repeatedly ruminating over a problem that he actually cared about. What was that sudden weird feeling he felt at Zia clan when his hands met with Ziaingu's? Was it some kind of profound power? But he had never heard of such a mysterious power in floating cloud city. For Zia Kingu to reach the 10th level of the elementary profound realm at the age of 16 was truly an amazing feat. But she was still at the lowest point of the 10th elementary profound realm. How was it possible that she could soundlessly release such an ice cold aura that actually completely immobilized his entire arm? What was that astonishing mystifying power which was displayed at such a level? Or was this the hidden strength of the Zia Kingu who had reached the pinnacle 10th level of the elementary profound realm? The voice of the master of ceremonies stopped. After a brief pause, his voice became eight octaves higher. First bow to heaven and earth. Xiochi's mind rapidly rotated as he glanced at Zia Kingu through the corner of his eye while bowing in the direction of the doorway to the heavens and earth. Second bow to the elders. The two people made an 180° turn towards the seated Zia Hungi and Xyro Li and bowed. Zyro Li firmly nodded and smiled lovingly at Xyro Chi and his new granddaughter-in-law. Zahungi also smiled and beamed in content. Husband and wife, exchange bows. Zyrochi's body turned towards Ziaingu, and at the same time, Ziaingu also turned to face him. This swift action that did not withhold any hesitation nor delay made all members of the younger generation of the Xyro clan clench their teeth. In their thoughts, they believed that Ziaingu did not willingly enter this marriage with that crippled bastard, but was instead forced to come by the Zia clan. To their disappointment, even up to this moment, there was no resistance at all from Zia Kingu. There weren't even rope lines of her supposedly failed escape that they imagined to have happened. The two people bowed, and as they both bent towards one another, Zyroi saw cold eyes peeking through the gaps of the bead curtain. Cool, icy eyes that revealed no traces of emotion. Usually, at moments like this, the crowd would burst into enthusiastic applause, loud laughter, and cheers. But only a few people authentically clapped for the married couple. It was quite awkward indeed. The fifth elder should be congratulated. The first elder, Xio Lee, who was sitting next to Xio Yunhai, said with a cynical strangeness in his words, "I congratulate you in representation of all the five elders well-wishes." Even the first elder Xio Lee, who was sitting next to Xio Yunhai, heard the strange, cynical scorn in his words. Second Elder Xio laughed with the same stranges that came from the leader of the Xio clan earlier and slowly continued. Fifth Elder, getting such a talented granddaughter-in-law has added glory to the Xio clan. As for the Zia clan, getting such a son-in-law, haha, is also quite acceptable. Congratulations. The atmosphere in the hall immediately cooled. If one were not an idiot, they would clearly hear the apparent irony in the words congratulations that came out of their mouths. When Xio Ying was alive, Xoli's position in the Xio clan was second to none. For even the leader of the Xio clan at that time was respectful towards him. There was a clear reason. Xio Ying<unk>s talent at that time gave him the potential to be one of Xlan's strongest experts in the future. In this world that respected those with power, as Xioing<unk>s father, Xoli was held in high regard. However, after Xio Ying<unk>s death, Xoli's only grandson was born with a damaged, profound vein. Although he was the strongest in Floating Cloud City, who would fear him? His son was dead, his grandson disabled, and he had no other successors. His position in the Xyro clan was now suffering a disastrous decline. Xoli did not get angry, for he had already become accustomed to these cynical jabs of word play. With an indifferent smile, he spoke. Thank you all for personally coming today. Be sure to drink more than a few cups of wine to celebrate this event. I have already given you face by personally coming here today, so I do not need any wine. My grandson Xio Chengai has now reached the seventh level of the elementary profound realm. I have been here for quite a while now. I must personally go stabilize him. Third elder said as he stood up. T L give face equals give somebody respect, especially when in public. Changai has already reached the seventh level of the elementary profound ream. To be only 17 and have such success, his future is truly limitless. No wonder you were positively glowing today. That is surely gratifying. The other four elders rose to congratulate him with a surprised look on their face. Although well disciplined, Xio's face had a look of condensed anger. His four brothers had always showered him with respect. But ever since Xio Ying<unk>s death and the confirmation of Xioi's damaged profound vein, their attitude changed for the worse. Basically, they do not bother to show respect for him anymore. They typically bragged about their own grandsons in front of him, but now in his own grandson's wedding hall, they still fearlessly flaunted their own grandson's achievements. His brothers used their own grandsons success to rip out the deepest scars in his heart. All of a sudden, the atmosphere that could make one's sweat bullets shifted. The master of ceremonies, Xoda, hurriedly tried to speed up the wedding process and exclaimed in a squeaky high voice. The bride and groom, go into the bridal chamber. Distinguished guests, please go to the banquet. In the midst of the sound of gongs and joyful drum beats, the couple who many were watching finished their rituals of worship and started to walk towards Xioi's small courtyard. The bridal chamber was the room where Xioqi usually lived in. It had been decorated entirely in red. The carpet on the floor was finally embroidered with a dragon and phoenix that flew upon clouds, an auspicious symbol for a blissful marriage. The room full of red silk also contained a large double happiness sign, and two red candles were shining brightly between a golden lamp. The dragon and phoenix engraved on the candle seemed to sway in the twinkling light. The flickering candle touched upon golden glaze curtain and seemed to fill the room with a dreamy hazy color. It was isolated from the outside world and gleamed in such a way that would make one's eyes soften. Ziaingu<unk>s maid Zia Dongling escorted Ziaingu to sit in her bed and then soundlessly stepped out of the room while closing the door. The room became silent and they could only vaguely hear the soft sound of their breathing. Ziaingu sat there quietly, soundless and motionless. Xiochi did not approach her, but instead stood near the doorway and stared past it with a shadowy look in his eyes. Your grandfather was disrespected during your own wedding. You must be really upset, right? A soft, clear voice entered Xiochi's ear, and his expression changed. Although Zia Kingu<unk>s words stung his ears, she left him in awe for she took the initiative to talk to him. Xiochi glanced to his side and hesitantly spoke. "You can take down that Phoenix coronet now. That thing is too heavy and if you wear it for too long it would become uncomfortable. According to the wedding traditions of the profound sky continent, the groom must take off the coronet for the bride. A while back, as he was trying help her off the carriage, she stung his hand with her mysterious cold aura. Xioi was too prideful to touch her again because he was fearful of that happening again. Besides, he did not think the cold Zia Kingu would even be willing to accept his offer if he were to actually try to help her with her coronet. After a slight pause, Zia Kingu raised her hands and silently took off the Phoenix Coronet. At that moment, a beautiful, breathtaking face appeared in Xyrochi's line of sight. As she raised her charming eyes and meet Zyro Cheese in contact, he immediately became stunned. A pair of indescribable, magnificent eyes met his. It was as if the world's essence lay deep within her eyes. Not even the world's most brilliant painter, nor the most precious of words could accurately portray her beauty. Her jade-like skin and creamy face was as white as snow under the dim lights in the room. Her lips were like the world's most delicate petals, and her nose was of the most beautiful of sculpted white jade, high and proud with an innate nobility. "Your reputation precedes you," Xiochi murmured, measuring her with his unblinking eyes. A pair of beautiful eyes peered back at him. An endless gravitational abyss drew his every attention and thought, making it difficult for him to move his eyes elsewhere. Although this was an arranged marriage decided since they were born, aside from the occasional glimpses he took when he was young. This was actually the first time he truly saw Zeia Kingu since the age of 10. This was because Zia Kingu rarely left her home and the disabled Xioi had low self-esteem that evolved into an inferiority complex. He only heard about Zia Kingu from the hearsay of others and after hearing that Ziaingu had grown up to become a peerless beauty. He pictured her in his heart. The shadowy figure in his illusions faded as he looked at Ziaingu realizing that he was in the face of true beauty. Zia King Yu<unk>s allure was beyond his imagination, for he could not describe this peerless beauty. The Xyrochi with clear memories of two worlds could not help but forget his thoughts when faced with such a sight. Zia Kingu was called the number one beauty in Floating Cloud City. But if anyone were to say that she was the one number beauty in Blue Wind Empire, Xioi would not dispute that claim. He could not think of anything that would surpass this beautiful spectacle before his eyes. The girl in front of his eyes was yet only 16. Girls at that age have not fully blossomed. But it is impossible to imagine what would happen to Zia Kingu after a few years. Perhaps she would reach a transcendent level by that time. A girl whose every movement and smile that could move the world was born in little floating cloud city. And this girl has become his wife today. Xioi could not help but question the authenticity of his reality. And you are not what the rumors say, nor what I had imagined as well. Zia Kingu rose, and her touching curve of her body was exposed as she approached Xioi. Her eyes shown like water as she slightly parted her lips. Rumors say that your vein was disabled, so you can only stay at the first level of the elementary profound realm. Because of that, you have a weak physique and low self-esteem since you only stay at home. Your only friends are your little aunt Zyro Lynxy and my younger brother Euan. The only thing on your body that can be regarded as an advantage would be your appearance. Your profound aura is not only weak and murky, but your profound vein is indeed disabled. However, your personality is completely different from what the rumors claimed you to be. Zia Kingu stopped at a distance of three steps before Xioi as she stared straight at Xioi with her beautiful eyes. Although you deliberately hide and pretend your true character, I sensed your arrogance ever since I laid my eyes upon you. You are completely the opposite of those rumors. Earlier at my place, I froze your hand with my profound power, but your calm reaction surprised me. If your hand wasn't so still, I would have doubted that I failed to use my power. In the wedding hall, you and your grandfather X lie, were mocked during such an important occasion. But it only looked like you were angry for a quick second, and then your anger disappeared. Your expression and heart rate showed no signs of abnormal fluctuations at all. It is difficult to achieve that mental state of mind, even for a middle-aged profound spirit practitioner. When you look at me, there is an obsessed glint in your eye that has not diminished even now. Your disabled, profound vein is fact, but your true personality and state of mind has fooled everyone. Zia Kingu whispered as her boundlessly deep eyes stared at Xioi. Xiochi startled in surprise. With Zia Kingu that close to him, one would usually be in ecstasy when in the presence of the perfume of her floral scent. But Xyrochi could not be bothered to be moved by that. His heart had completely went in shock as he stared back at her in awe. It was true. He was indeed a proud person regardless of who he was in the presence of because back when he was in the Azure Cloud continent, he was one of the proud warlords there. Anyone living in floating Cloud City at the moment was not on par with those legendary warlords of his time. Although his strength went through an extreme decline, his state of mind stayed the same. He did not deliberately set out to appear that way, but it was the natural attitude of his previous life. However, he had to keep his prideful self hidden because of his current lack of strength and situation. What Zia Kingu said had perfectly described his personality in one go. On the road from Zialan back to Xio Clan, he always thought that she held him in contemptuous disregard, for she was a heavenly treasure, and he was the mud on the floor that people despised. It was a typical common thought, but he had never been aware that she had been watching him during their journey back. Xio Chi suddenly saw Zia Kingu in a new light as he looked into her extremely beautiful eyes. Those clear eyes that saw through his mind and heart in meticulously fine detail left him in shock. You know, this Xyrochi with two memories of experience was a person that could not be moved in the face of all the world's heroes and even in the face of death. Yet, she already saw him through. Was she really only a girl who had just turned 16? How can this 16-year-old girl possess such a monstrously keen eye and mind? Xioi had a suspicion that maybe Zia Kingu was like him, a person reincarnated into this world. Are you enduring it? Zia Kingu asked after a pause. Enduring it? Xiochi let out a seemingly self-deprecating laugh. Perhaps the truth of my damaged profound vein won't change. In the profound sky continent, living a life with a disabled profound vein has made people look down on me like I am the scum on the bottom of their shoe. Is there a difference between a cowardly self-lame and a silent endurance? Enduring it more like he was tolerating it. Yesterday's Xioi was exactly as what the rumors had said he was. No matter how clever Zia Kingu was, she could not have thought that today's Xioi would have another lifetime's worth of memory. His temperament and mental state had also changed along with it. Ziaingu<unk>s beautiful eyes narrowed as she suddenly lifted the jade-like palm of her hand and stretched out two fingers to touch his chest. Suddenly, a cool but not entirely cold aura hit Xio Chi in the chest and spread throughout his body. As Xyrochi was about to ask her what she was doing, the cold feeling instantly disappeared, and Zia Kingu opened her lips that were like the soft petals of a flower. Your profound vein is indeed disabled, but it is not a congenital deformity. You were probably attacked when you were very young and someone directly destroyed your profound vein. Was destroyed? Xiochi frowned. Ever since he was a child, his grandfather and everybody else all said that he was born with a damaged profound vein. He even believed that himself when he got his memories of rebirth back since his memories included the mastering of all the medical books in during his lifetime. But Zia Kingingu said he wasn't born with a damaged profound vein, but instead it was damaged by an external force. In truth, no one in the Xyro clan had been able to see through disguise. Zia Kingu had only looked at him within a few breaths of time, and to her, that fact was as clear as Crystal, this woman. Yes. Xio Kingu creased her eyebrows and gently spoke. It was heavily damaged during your childhood, and your family did not notice. Because of that, it was never repaired. And now that you have already grown up, the damaged profound vein has fully formed into its disabled state and lost all hopes of repair. Zia Kingu said that last statement with absolute confidence. If an adults profound vein became damaged, their power would leak, but there were a variety of methods to repair that. However, if the profound vein broke in the early stages of infancy, the growth of the vein would start from a bad foundation and will only become worse. At Xyrochi's age, the vein had already become badly shaped, so it was impossible for it to be repaired back to normal. Xyrochi's expression did not change and simply said, "That may not necessarily be true." Zia Kingu gently inclined her head to glance at him. "Looks like you always had the notion of repairing your profound vein. I'll definitely fix it, Xioi said blankly. Zia Kingu looked at him deeply. She saw not only confidence and arrogance, but a deep layer of coldness in his eyes. She sighed in her heart and softly spoke. The profound sky continent is a big place with numerous amounts of talented people. Perhaps there really may exist a person who can repair your damaged vein. I should not have said what I had said earlier with such assertion. You can just take it as my ignorance. In those few words, Xioi's impression of her improved dramatically. He hesitated, then asked, "The icy cold power you used earlier, what was that? I have never heard of anyone in floating Cloud City with that skill. Your master is not a person from floating Cloud City, am I right?" Of course, it's up to you whether or not you want to tell me. Zia Kingu was silent for a while, and right when Xioi thought she would not answer, she calmly replied, "Frozen Cloud Arts. Frozen cloud arts. Xioi slightly shivered at the name as he felt a vague sense of familiarity. When he suddenly remembered the name of the concept, his palad and words uncontrollably escaped from his mouth. Frozen Cloud Asgard, Ziaingu tilted her beautiful head and looked at Xioi with a surprised expression. When he shouted out, Frozen Cloud Asgard, Xiochi had already lost his cool, but in her eyes, he was still too calm. Even if the lord of floating cloud city heard that name, his body will weaken and his legs would tremble in fright. She lightly said, "My master is indeed from frozen cloud asgard, so I can be regarded as a disciple of frozen cloud asgard. This fact, the only person in floating cloud city who knows of that is my father. You are the now the second. I tell you this because you are my husband now, and this is the most basic of my respect for you." Xyrochi's racing heartbeat could not calm down. The words frozen cloud Asgard burst into his heart like a huge bomb because it was the most powerful out of Blue Wind Empires four major sects and also the holy land of that many yearn and long to be in. Even the Blue Wind Empires royalty must worship their transcendent existence annually. Heavenly Sword Villa, Frozen Cloud, Asgard, Zyro sect, burning heaven clan. Out of the seven countries in profound sky continent, the blue wind empire was currently the smallest. Although they had the lowest overall strength, they have never been annexed by the other countries. A large part of the reason why was because of those four major sects. Those powers that be are not afraid of the Blue Wind Empire's strength, but instead fear the four major sects. There is no doubt about the strength of those four major sects. The process in which they recruit disciples was very strict and they did not care about background in their selections. The most important thing they want in the end was talent. Everyone living in the Blue Wind Empire dream and aspire for that kind of great fortune. If you get into one of these major sects, even the lowest of disciples will bring honor and prosperity to their family. They would even be the guests of honor at court and be presented with the rank of a marquee. No one of this little floating cloud city had ever heard of anyone being admitted into one of those major sects, and no one would even dare dream about it. If the previous Xioi heard the names of the four major sects, it would be like hearing the existence of the heavenly sky kingdom. He would never have expected to be touched by those words, but he did not expect that the wife he had just married was one of the disciples of the top ranked sect behind heavenly sword villa, frozen cloud, Asgard. Xioi quickly calmed himself down and asked since you are one of frozen cloud asgards disciple. Why don't your family reveal it to the public? With your identity, Zia clan can freely walk through anywhere in floating cloud city and nobody would dare offend them. All the rich people, including the city's main clan, will seek to curry favor from you. The growth of your Zeia clan will also develop at a rapid pace. Because of you, Zeia King, you answered, because of me, Xioi stilled in silence. Those three words had reminded him why. I married you with the identity of a girl from Zia clan and the entire city of floating cloud is in an uproar. If I married you within frozen cloud, Asgard's disciples status, not only our small city of floating clouds would be in an uproar. No matter what, there would be a lot of unpredictable consequences between you and my Zia clan. After all, the difference between you and I is far too vast. Xio Kingu said in a light voice with clear eyes. Although she only stood there silently, she was already brilliantly dazzling. Xiochi slowly let out a sigh. Then why did you marry me? You know precisely why. My life was saved by Uncle Xio Ying. I am the reason why he died during an assassination attempt soon after. Since I was born, my father arranged a marriage between us in order to repay Uncle Xio Ying<unk>s kindness. Although it was my father's promise, I have no reason to disobey him and thus I have no reason to not marry you. Zia Kingu raised her glittering cold eyes. The reason why I told you that I belong to frozen cloud Asgard was to let you know that in order for me to continue to practice the frozen cloud arts, my heart must be like a frozen cloud. Frozen cloud Asgard only accept women and they must be pure and uncontaminated for life. Although I did marry you, I cannot love anyone in this lifetime. You must understand my commitment. Even if you aren't a disciple of the frozen cloud Asgard, I don't think you would fall in love with me anyway. Xioi said with a self-deprecating smile. Zia Kingu slowly shook her head. Maybe you have misunderstood me. I have never despised you nor have looked down on you. My master had told me many times that people of a higher level should never overlook someone else nor underestimate them. Besides, I have just reached the starting point of my journey up. The profound sky continent respects the strong, so there are countless doctors around. Just because your profound vein was broken does not mean that your life is completely ruined. Xioi was moved. Floating Cloud City bragged about Zia King's beauty and talent. But perhaps nobody knew about the elegance in her state of mind that not even the countless number of middle-aged people in this world can achieve. And she was really only 16. After a few years, one could not imagine how she would be. No wonder she caught the fancy those from Frozen Cloud Asgard. This woman with such beauty, talent, and mind of a fairy had really just became his wife not too long ago. It felt like that was only just a dream. If he did not have two lives worth of experience and memory, he would feel a sense of inferiority and could probably not even muster up the courage to look her in the eye. "Thank you for telling me this," Xiochi said with a passionate sigh. His eyes then became focused as his voice changed. Then can you tell me the level of your current profound strength? Entering the 10th level of the elementary profound realm at the age of 16 was talent amazingly enough to stir the entire city a floating cloud. However, Xio Chi did not believe that Zia Kingu was only at the 10th level of the elementary profound realm anymore because this unrivaled level of talent in floating cloud city should not catch the eyes of those of frozen cloud Asgard. Ziaingu became silent and did not answer Xyroqi's sudden question. However, her silence had indicated that her strength was higher than that of the 10th level of the elementary profound realm. You should go to the toast. Zia Kingu slowly replied with a glint in her eye. As her voice fell, the sound of slow footsteps came from outside the door. Xio Hongs old gentle voice came from the door. Young master, it is time for you to propose the toast. Grandpa Hong, I'll be right there. Xiochi promised. With one last look at Ziaingu and after patting his clothes of any dust, he walked out of the room. As soon as Xiochi left, a bright ice aura surrounded the room and a white figure dreily appeared in front of Zia Kingu. Zia Kingu lightly stepped forward and spoke with a gentle and respectful voice. Master Kingu, do you wish to return to frozen cloud Asgard with me? The beautiful gentle voice was as misty as a cloud and as gentle as a breeze. It was enough to make even the world's coldest heart completely melt. Zia Kingu gently shook her head. Master Kingu intends to stay a while. If I leave as soon as I got married, he will suffer even harsher of endless ridicules. I asked Master to give me a month's time so I won't hurt him nor allow others to make fun of him by the time I leave. The woman dressed in white looked at her. After a while, she nodded slowly and smiled faintly. All right. It is the first time in hundreds of years that a frozen cloud Asgard disciple was allowed to be married since it had been an exception. Another months worth of weight is nothing. Thank you for fulfilling my wish, Master. Zeia King<unk>s body lowered again as she hesitantly whispered softly. Master, is it really impossible to repair his profound vein? The woman in white shook her head without delay. There are no such things as absolutes in this world, but at least to me it seems to not be possible. Kingu, it is good that you are a kind and compassionate person with a giving heart. However, I really cannot help you with this issue. Zia Kingu did not ask again since even this white-roed woman with such high pedigree and exalted status was sure that it was not possible. Then there should not be even the smallest chance of it being possible. Kingu, I know you are eager in repaying your debt of gratitude since your life was saved at a young age to even go as far as delaying your return to frozen cloud. Asgard, but you marrying him should already be enough to repay that obligation. When you return to Frozen Cloud Asgard, your identity will be revealed. Although he may suffer more ridicule after your departure, his status of being the husband of a frozen cloud Asgard disciple would still be intact. At least in this little floating cloud city, with that kind of prestigious status, no one would dare to cause him physical harm. The lady in white said with a comforting tone of voice. Zia Kingu softly nodded. I hope so. His profound vein is disabled and he also has no other strengths. He will never be able to achieve any accomplishments perhaps in his entire life. But you are beautiful and smart. Talents of your nature are born once every hundreds of years. Otherwise, our mistress would not have let you break the rules like that and get married. Marrying you was his greatest fortune and luck in his entire life. You taking this step is justice enough. If his father was still alive and smart enough, he would have cancelled this wedding. I have to go. I will pick you up a month later. During this period, I will not go anywhere far. If you encounter any unresolvable problems, write me a letter to keep me informed. I bid teacher farewell. The white robed woman's chin turned around. Suddenly, a beautiful face with a hint of coldness on it was seen. She wore no makeup, for her skin was as smooth as a snow white piece of jade. People cannot help but think of the terms a beauty with flesh of ice and bones of jade and a face of snow with lips of pearls to describe her as they laid their eyes upon her. Her facial features were as exquisite as they were perfect. She was charming in a way that made people unable to even dare look at her. One would think that she was as holy as she was lofty when gazing into her eyes. She was like a fairy who had ascended above Nirvana, untainted by anyone of the human realm. She opened the window and her body slightly trembled. As if accompanied by an invisible cold ice spirit, she looked as if she had dissolved right at the place she once stood. Zyroclan main hall, a full guest house. Seventh Uncle Leu, please have a drink. Xyro Chi respectfully presented a cup in front of a gentlel looking middle-aged man. The person who was called Seventh Uncle Leu stood up as he started to laugh. He raised his cup and drained it of its contents. He spoke with laughter. My nephew, I was best friends with your father. Now that I see you have formed your own family and have married to such a good wife, my heart is happy for you. Thank you. Seventh Uncle Leu, First Elder, please have a drink. Xio Clan's first elder, Xio Lee, took the cup and gulped the entire mouthful. He then heavily slammed the cup of wine onto the table. During this entire process, aside from saying hmp through his nose, he did not say a single word nor look Zrochi in the eye. Even with that attitude, drinking Xyrochi's cup of wine had already expressed the large amount of face he gave Xyrochi. Xyro Chi did not speak as well and moved to the next table. Just as he walked two steps, Xyro Lee spit on the floor and opened his mouth as he spoke in a cold, harsh tone of voice within Xio's hearing range. Such a delicate flower has now been inserted into poop. Ba Xioi's expression remained unchanged. His consistent footsteps had not paused and it was as if he had not heard him. That was only if one did not look closely, for his eyes hardened and a deep cold condensation hid behind them. He came over to the second elder Xyro<unk>'s side. Zyrochi bowed slightly. Second elder Xyrochi offers you a cup. Xyro did not bother to look Zyrochi in the eye, but he opened his mouth to lightly say. Yang dear, help me drink it. Yes, Grandpa. Xio Yang said without hesitation. He took Xiochi's offer of wine and drank it all only making a guru sound. A cup of wine presented to an elder but drank by his children did not show only contempt anymore. It was a sort of public humiliation. After drinking the wine, Xio Yang put the cup down and sat back on his seat. His eyes filled with undisguised scorn and ridicule. Xioi did not say anything again. He only nodded slightly and moved on to the next table. Just like before, as soon as he took two steps, a cold grunt was heard. HMPH trash is trash. Even if trash climbed into Zia clan, it is still trash. Zyro lie. That old bastard is actually going to depend on his granddaughter-in-law. Ba. The voice contained deep disdain, sarcasm, and of course, jealousy. Even if one did not mention the wealth of the Zeia clan, if one can still brag about Zeia Kingu<unk>s amazing talent. If she had not been married to Xyrochi, but instead to his grandson, Xio Yang, his laughter that came from his dreams may actually become audible. Xiochi pretended to not have heard and walked away smiling. Xio Chi finished his toast and sent out the guests. The long night of banquet was over. During this entire process, the people who displayed genuine heartfelt congratulations and best wishes were so few that Xio Chi could count them on his 10 little fingers. Countless people were very polite towards him. After all, today was his wedding day. But he clearly saw contempt in almost all of their eyes. Some people sighed. Some people were jealous with anger. The rest had unconcealed scorn and other negative thoughts like trash and worthless written all over their faces. His profound vein was disabled. So it was a fact that he would not achieve any greatness during his entire lifetime because of that. So they don't have to be friends or be polite with Xyroqi. They did not care if they offend him because even if he got offended, he could not do anything against them with his disabled profound vein. Before this wastel, they could be unscrupulous and not care, readily dripping in the show of their superiority. They felt strong as they looked down on this person who would never become anything but one who was weaker than them. That is the ugly reality of human nature. Take an early rest. Xoli patted Xiochi on the shoulder with a gentle smile on his face. Xioi did not know what was hidden under his grandpa's smile at this time. As Xyroi became older and older, his temper had become more and more gentle. But when he was young, he was like a candle that could easily be ignited. If someone made him upset, he would make that person 10 times angrier, and no one dared to provoke him. Zyrochi knew all too well that his grandfather's temper did not become soft due to old age, but was instead because of him. In order to protect his useless grandson, he had to become kind and soft. Even if they were looked down upon, as long as the bottom line had not been crossed, he would endure it as best as he could. This way, there wouldn't be any enemies that would come back to get revenge on his grandson after he had passed away. as the most powerful person in the floating cloud city. The fifth elder that everyone used to be afraid of was now not respected nor feared by the other elders anymore. This was true in the case of the younger generation as well. Watching Zyro lies back, images of disrespectful and laughing faces appeared in Zyrochi's mind. Zyrochi clenched his fists slowly as they gradually became pale. His eyes sharpened and radiated an image of an ice cold blade. Subsequently, the corner of his mouth slowly opened and revealed a smile that would make one's hair stand on its end. Xio Chi was definitely a vengeful person. As someone who held long grudges in the last 6 years in Azure Cloud continent, his heart that was filled with hatred remembered everything. He remembered everyone who had been nice to him, but also all the people who had not been nice as well. He kept it in deep in his heart until it was time to seek revenge for even the smallest of grievances. You guys will be sorry. A deep guttural noise slowly overflowed from Xio's mouth like a vicious curse. Since God gave me this chance to be another person, how could I let my grandfather and I suffer through this bullying? Back in his little courtyard, the moon was still hanging high against the sky. Xioi walked to the corner of his yard and stretched out his left hand. Suddenly, water arrows shot out from his palm. During today's wedding, he could not avoid drinking a lot of wine. In the end, he drank so much that it looked as if he could barely stand on his own. In reality, he was actually clearly awake. This was not him having a high capacity to hold his liquor, but was instead because of the sky poison pearl. All the wine he had drunk transferred into the sky poison pearl. Since the pearl had become one with his body, he manipulated it as if it was like his own body. The sound of Hua Lala was heard for a long time until all the wine had been removed from the sky poison pearl. Xioi lifted his wine-covered left hand and smirked. He rubbed the wine directly onto his face and held his breath until his face turned red. Stumbling, he pushed his bedroom door wide open as he wobbled to his left and right as if he was drunk. The door was pushed open and the smell of wine followed Xi as he staggered into the room as if he were about to trip any second. He awkwardly lifted his head and looked at Zia Kingu. Ziaingu sat on the bed with her beautiful eyes closed. It was extremely quiet. The dim candle light flickered across her beautiful soft face, adding a bewitching mystical feel that one could not possibly resist. Xioi's eyes brightened and his feet shook as he walked towards Ziaingu. Hey, my wife, I have let you wait for a long time. Let's go. We can now use the bridal chamber. Ziaingu suddenly opened her eyes and casually waved her right hand. An irresistible cold force suddenly swept up Xyrochi and pushed him out of the door. Xyrochi fell on his bottom and had almost knocked over the stone table in the courtyard. Zyro Chi was in pain and rubbed his butt. It took him a lot of effort to get up and then he angrily roared. Damn, I was only joking. You don't have to be so ruthless. I am so feeble yet you hit me as hard as you could anyone would think that you are planning to murder your husband. The door slammed. Xioi pushed forward but discovered that the bedroom door was firmly shut. Xioi suddenly became depressed. This woman don't even speak of flirting. Even jokes are taken so seriously. Can I really live happily this way? I was really only joking. Besides, I am only at the lowest first level of the elementary profound realm. Even if I wanted to do something to you, that would be impossible. Zia Kingu did not respond. Xiochi stood at the door for a long time, but the door showed not the slightest sign of opening. Xioi's small courtyard only had one housing. There was no point in mentioning if he had other rooms, for he did not even own a workhouse nor a stable. If it was a normal day, he could sneakily slip into his little aunt's place to sleep. But tonight was his wedding night, so it was not appropriate for him to sleep anywhere else. As a cold night wind passed by, Xioi shivered and it looked as if he had become smaller. He knocked the door again and weak spoke. Hey, you're not really letting me sleep outside, are you? You should know that there are many people in the Xyro clan who would want to lay their hands on you. They are very upset that tonight is our wedding night. They have realized that someone as talented as you are would not let me touch you even if we are married. So they must be waiting for something to happen for an excuse to laugh at me. If they come over and see that I was locked outside, I would forever become a laughing stock. No matter what, I am still your husband. Do you really have the heart to helplessly watch me get laughed at? The room was still completely silent. Right when Xio Chi had the notion of kicking the door, the closed door finally slowly opened. Xio Chi rushed in as quick as lightning and shut the door with a bang. Zia Kingu remained in bed with the previous attitude from before. Although she was just sitting on the bed, she emitted a hazy noble elegance. Her beautiful eyes slightly turned, looked at the flustered Xyrochi, and spoke in a faint voice, "You are not allowed to be within 5 steps from me. Then where would you let me sleep? Xioi rubbed his chin. The room was small. It only had a bed, a reading table, an eating table, and two cabinets. If one walked from east to west across the room, at most there would only be the size of seven of eight paces of distance in between. You sleep on the bed. Ziaingu stood up from the bed. No need. Xioi flatly refused and sat in the corner furthest away from Ziaingu and closed his eyes. Although Zia Kingu was perhaps a hundred times stronger than him, his dignity as a man refused to let a girl sleep on anywhere but a bed if he had a choice. He had married such a beautiful wife yet on his wedding night. He could not touch, caress any part of her body or even sleep on his own bed. He could only silently hug his knees as he leaned against a wall in the corner of his room. Xio Chi now had really felt the maliciousness of this world. The red candle light reflected against this newly transformed room, making it seem lovely. The two people in red dress entered a long silence. One sat at the edge of the bed, and the other huddled pitifully in the corner. The only sound heard during this dragging silence was the vague sound of their breathing. After a while, Xio Chief finally could not help but say, "You will not really make me stay here all night." Zia Kingyu<unk>s long eyelashes fluttered and the graceful curve of her body turned slightly to lie down on the bed. She released the scarlet curtain and it fell hanging down. Xio Chi could only make out her vague blurry shadow under the dim candle light. Suddenly, Ziaingu waved her hands and a cold, windy breeze extinguished the two red candles simultaneously, making Xyrochi sit in the dark shadows of the room. If it wasn't impossible for him to beat this woman, even though she was as cold as her appearance, he still would have jumped her. I was just joking earlier. Not only am I not drunk, I did not even drink one sip this entire afternoon. You can't even take a little joke. You have no sense of humor. Xioi resentfully muttered. I knew you weren't drunk. Zia Kingu replied coldly. But I really hate men who could defecate and urinate anywhere. Defecate and urinate anywhere. Could it be when he was trying to get the wine out of the sky poison pearl? FCK. Xioi's eyes widened as he jumped up from his corner. You said that I indiscriminately urinate anywhere, which I did. You see that with? You only heard the sound of me pouring wine. Pouring wine. Pouring the wine. As a dignified man of the XO clan, I would never do something as uncultured and filthy as that. You are allowed to look down on my profound power, but not insult my noble character and personality. a little white after Xioi roared at her. He heard the leisurely sound of Zia Kingyu<unk>s voice. I was only joking, too. Number dollar, Xioi had almost vomited out his blood. Depressed, Xioi went back to his corner and became silent again. This woman really knew how to joke around. Usually, he would sleep comfortably in his bed, but on his wedding night, he had to sleep in a corner. There was no way he could fall asleep. After holding in for a long time, Xioi let out his voice again. So when are you going back to frozen cloud asgard? Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? Ziaingu Xioi laughed with a light expression and calmly explained. Although I know very little about the ways of frozen cloud Asgard, I do know that they only accept women. Emotions of love are forbidden and they all have to be chased. There are countless beautiful women in Frozen Cloud Asgard and I have never heard of anyone there getting married. But you married me. Looks like even among the people of Frozen Cloud Asgard, your talent and gifts are a rarity. You are perhaps a talent that they have only seen once in hundreds of years. Otherwise, why else would they break such a precedent in your favor? Zia Kingu. Xioi raised his head and looked up at the darkness of his ceiling and continued. For someone like you, they would do all they can to recruit you into their frozen cloud asgard in the shortest time possible. There must be countless strong practitioners that study the way of the profound that an ordinary person would never see in their entire lifetime and countless treasures as well. Under these circumstances, your profound power and status would skyrocket. You are probably going to leave soon. Am I right? Zia Kingu remained silent for a long time. After a while, she answered in a vague voice. In a month, a month. Xiochi's surprised expression became a smile as he lowered his head and whispered, "Thank you, Zia Kingu. You must have asked them for this month. I doubt that frozen cloud Asgard would willingly let you delay your recruitment and let you stay with a useless person like me against your wishes. One month is quite a long time, and you are their treasured talent. In the future, you may even reach the same level and even be on par with the mistress of frozen cloud, Asgard. Others may laugh at me, mock me, and never put me in their eyes. But someone like you, who would improve to unimaginable lengths in the future, was willing to marry me. You tried to protect and maintain the pride of a laughable man like me. Although I know you are doing this to repay my late father's kindness. I thank you just the same. No need, Zia. Kingu answered unemotionally. But her heart slightly shifted inside her as she became slightly moved by what he had said. He was not wrong at all, for even her master told her that talents like her were as rare as can be even in frozen cloud Asgard. Her master even said that once Zia Kingu entered frozen cloud Asgard, she was confident that she could break through the profound spirit realm and even reach the profound Earth realm, a level that not even the number one practitioner in Floating Cloud City, Xioi, could reach. Reaching the profound Earth realm before the age of 20 to the people of floating cloud city. That was an unimaginable feat. Before I married you, I thought you would be like all those people who hold me in contempt and ignore me. But you are better than I thought you would be. Not only are you beautiful, you are also talented and kind. As a woman, you can be considered to be flawlessly perfect. Zia Kingu. Well, since you are so kind, you certainly won't let your husband sleep in the corner on your wedding night, right? My bed is quite large and it definitely would not be crowded if two people slept on it. Before Xioi even finished his sentence, a cold and murderous aura blew across the room and he shivered. If you keep talking rubbish, I'll throw you out. Xioi cked his mouth and obediently shut up as his stiff bottom bitterly went back to where he sat before. Somebody's here. Zia Kingu suddenly exclaimed. After a while, Xioi heard the soft, faint sound of footsteps. If he did not deliberately try to hear it, he would never have noticed those footsteps. The owner of those footsteps seemed to have suddenly stopped in front of his courtyard. The careful footsteps stopped right in the middle of the courtyard and went no further because in the room was the untouchable Zeia Kingu. After sneaking around the courtyard for what seemed like half a day, the owner of those footsteps left as quietly as they could, the same way they quietly snuck in. It was night and Xyro Yulong could not sleep. He looked out his window with a frantic expression on his face from time to time. The door opened and Xyro Yang<unk>s hurried footsteps had come in. Xyro Yulong narrowed his eyes and asked, "How is it this?" Xio Yang carefully looked at Xyro Yulong<unk>s expression and spoke with great care. "I just came from Xyrochi's place. Zyro Chi seems to not have been locked out." Xyro Yulong<unk>s hopeful expression dropped off his face. Xyro Yang<unk>s heart thumped and he hastily said, "But you don't have to worry, boss." Zia Kingu even views the guys from the governor<unk>'s mansion and the Yuan family with a contemptuous disregard. How could she even like that Xio Chi of a wastistrol? Although he had not been driven out, it's probably because because she pied him. She probably does not want him to get laughed at. Although he is in the same room as Zia Kingu, I doubt they are lying on the same bed. He's probably laying on the ground right this minute. That must be it. Xio Yulong<unk>s dark, uncertain face cast his eyes in the direction of Xio's courtyard. He clenched his fists. Xiaingu is the woman I want, and no one can meddle in my affairs. I will personally check out what had happened. Absolutely do not let him touch Ziaingu. Yes, Xio Yang quickly answered. The small dwarl-like Xioi, who was rolled up in a ball, was still awake in the corner of his room in the middle of the night. He opened his eyes and raised his left hand to look at the center of his palm. In the darkness, there was a striking faint green light that came from the sky poison pearl. In Azure cloud continent, with only the power of the sky poison pearl, he alone stirred the world's wind and storms, but also incurred the wrath of the entire Azarcloud continent. However, this had almost used up all its poisonous power. The sky poison pearl had fused with his body to become a part of him, and he could hardly feel the presence of its usual toxicity. Before his death on his killing field, he had used the sky poison pearls power to slaughter many strong practitioners. He had overdrawn the sky poison pearls power, and its poisonous powers ran dry. Overdrawing and exhausting are two different concepts. If exhausted, it could slowly recover. However, overdrawing directly depleted the source of the power, making it perhaps virtually impossible to restore it to its original strength. Today's Sky Poison Pearl only had the most basic of detoxification, refinement, and fusion capability. Of course, its storage remained as well. With his profound vein disabled, and the sky poison Pearl's strength depleted, he would never be a viewed as an important person in this small little city. The most intolerable fact was that he did not even have the ability to consummate his marriage with his own wife. If he wanted to have strength, the most basic step he should take would be first to repair his destroyed profound vein. Repair his profound vein. Ziaingu was certain that his profound vein could not be restored in ways an ordinary practitioner would use. But for him, this was not an impossible feat because he was the successor of a medical saint. His teacher had told him many times of the healer's theory in medicine. When in the face of a problem, one must remember that there is cause and effect. If there is a problem, there must be a solution. If there are people suffering, there must be healers. In this world, there is no incurable disease. And if people say they're one, it was only the healer's own lack of ability. Regarding how to repair his profound vein, Xioi had been thinking about that to this very day. His profound vein had not been an inborn disability, but was damaged by another at birth. After growing up, his profound vein has now been thoroughly crippled, making him unable to even use the most conventional of methods to restore it. In order to destroy his old disabled profound vein and recultivate another, he needed at least three things. Wife, are you asleep yet? Xioi asked. After a long period of silence, he still did not receive a response. Cough, cough, wife. You aren't really asleep, right? Ziochi asked again. My name is Zia Kingu. Zia Kingu replied in a cold, soft voice. I know your name is Zia Kingu. Xiochi scratched his eyebrows and strangely asked. Wife, I have something to ask you. Call me Zia Kingu, she said in anger. Oh, okay. Xioi nodded with a poker face on. He asked. wife, after you go to frozen cloud Asgard, are you able to obtain the seven profound gem grass, a purple veined heaven crystal, and a beast core of the earth profound realm? Are you able to get a hold of those three things? The three things Xrochi asked for made Ziau Fionics like eyes instantly open. What are you trying to do? Does this mean you actually have a way to get your hands on them? Xioi asked hopefully after seeing that Ziaingu had not immediately outright rejected him. Zia Kingyu slightly furrowed her eyebrows and started to slowly speak. I have never heard of a seven profound gem grass, but a earth profound realm beasts core can only be obtained after killing the beast. And how many people in the blue wind empire could actually successfully hunt a beast training in the ways of the profound? Even in frozen cloud asgard, one who could do that would certainly be quite rare. And a purple veined heaven crystal is a priceless immortal treasure that even the four major sex would go crazy for. Even one would be worth more than 10 years of a person's lifetime cultivation. Those three things don't even mention me. Even if it was the mistress seeking those things, it would still be almost impossible to obtain. Xyrochi's chest heaved up and down as he closed his eyes, silent for a long time. What are you planning to do with those three things? Ziaingu asked spontaneously. repair my profound vein," replied Xiochi. "I am unable to help you." At the same time, Zia Kingu said that she did not believe that those three items could repair a profound vein. Otherwise, there was no way her master would not know this method. Xiochi shook his head as if it did not matter. Those three items are not things that an ordinary person could obtain. I was only casually asking about them. After a small pause, he spoke again in a little small voice. wife. After you return to frozen cloud Asgard, will we ever meet again? Do not call me wife again. My name is Zia Kingu. Zia Kingu said as her voice pitched higher and her voice got colder. Indifferent, Xioi spoke in a carefree tone. I married you and you married me. We have already bowed in the face of heaven and earth with thousands of people as our witness. We have also went through the entire wedding process. I am now your husband and you are my wife. If I don't call you wife, what else would I call you? Zia Kingu became speechless. After a while, she indifferently spoke. Whatever suit yourself. Xioi suddenly grinned broadly. This wife was untouchable but had no conversational skills. You still haven't answered my previous question. When you return to frozen cloud asgard, will we meet again? Xioi asked again. No. Zakingu replied. Good. Xioi nodded his head and leaned his head against the wall as he closed his eyes. In fact, you should return to frozen cloud Asgard as early as possible and not have to worry about me. For someone as talented as you are, you should not stay in this little floating cloud city and also not be tied down by me. When you leave, your status of being a disciple of frozen cloud Asgard would become public. At least in this floating cloud city, no one would dare to hurt me and I would live more comfortably. Oh, right. You should not have any objections about my opinion. As you wish, Zia Kingu said expressionless. This is more like it since you would never see me again. If you do not let me get a concubine, I might really divorce you. The forgiving Zia King<unk>s heart was as calm as water, but she had a spontaneous urge to kick him out of the room. At the same time, she suddenly saw Xioi stand up and walk to the door. She hurriedly asked, "Where are you going? Can't sleep. I'm going out to watch the stars." As Xiochi answered her question, his heart groaned. this woman. How about you squat down here in the middle of the night? Let's see if you can sleep that way. Zia Kingu did not speak anymore, and Zyro Chi opened the door as he proceeded to walk outside. It was in the middle of the night, and all was still. Standing in the middle of the courtyard, Zyroi looked at the sky full of stars with a determined expression in his eyes. However, deep inside, he was at a loss with an unsettling and perplexing unease. Today was the first day he had been reborn. Although his mind had changed greatly if compared to the past, with a change that could even be said to have turned the world upside down, even his strong mind could not find a way to get out of his current damaged profound vain situation. If he could obtain the seven profound gem grass, purple veined heaven crystal, and the core of an earth profound realm's beast, he would have more than a 50% success rate when repairing his profound vein. However, with his current ability to even get one of the three items he needed as prohibitively difficult. After all, only the strong were respected in this world. Without enough power, achieving what one once was, but only just an illusion. What was he supposed to do? Suddenly, a slight throbbing sensation came from Xioi's left hand. He subconsciously raised his left hand and saw impressive glimmers of rapid flashing faint light come from the sky poison pearls pattern in his palm. Xyrochi's eyes contracted as he turned around facing north. This is in addition to being poisonous and having a strong refining capability, the sky poison pearl had an additional ability. It had the special kind of ability that could sense nearby toxic medicinal herb ingredients. If within a certain distance from a highly toxic ingredient or drug, it would perceive where it would be, emit flashing light, and point in its targets location. But its prerequisite was that the material must be one of the highest of qualities. The level of sensing that the sky poison pearl had was unrivaled. If compared, the highest level that a person could reach achieve would not even reach that of the sky poison pearls. On the Azure cloud continent, the sky poison pearl had only flashed six times. Each time letting him find the rarest of the most exotic treasures. Although this was its first day on the profound sky continent, the sky poison pearl actually had such an induction. Even this place hid a secret hidden treasure. The sky poison pearls targeted direction was to the north, which was the direction of Xlan's mountain. Xioi had his own little courtyard. Its location could be said to be the most dangerous out of all the Xio clans's property. This is because over his courtyard walls laid the mountains. This mountain was still actually the private property of the Xiao clan. The occasional wandering low-level profound beast would break into the courtyard by climbing over its walls. And if one wanted to come from the back of the mountain and sneak in to make this area its own, that would be a very good choice. However, in the face of the Xyro clan's power in floating Cloud City, no one has ever dared to have done that to this very day. Xioi did not hesitate and directly climbed over the wall. Although his profound strength was low, climbing over a wall of 3 m was no problem. The mountain area was quiet and somber, and if it was the previous Xioi, he absolutely would not come here in the middle of the night. The moon in the sky was still hanging up high, and the countless stars there were also not that dim. Xioi glanced all around him, and when he was sure there was no one in sight, he tread softly in the direction the sky poison pearl was pointing toward. The mountain under the light of the moon seemed to be shrouded in a thin layer of mist, making it seem both mysterious and dangerous. Not long after, Xioi arrived at the foot of the mountain. In this place, the sky poison pearls flickering light was at its highest frequency. Xioi stopped and wondered, "Was it around here?" But this was clearly only the foot of the mountain area. Xioclan pharmacists must pass through here everyday, so how could it even grow here? Whether it be a heavenly treasure or a somewhat decent type of medicine, it would have been found already. Why would it wait for him to find it for harvest? However, the sky poison pearl had indeed reached this rapid frequency, which meant that the target would be at least 10 footsteps away. In the moonlight, Xio's brow tightened as his eyes slowly and carefully searched every inch of the land around him. Under normal circumstances, the more precious the medicinal herb was, the more dangerous and extreme the place it grew would be. At first glance, this area at the foot of the mountain was covered entirely in weeds, and Xio Chi could not help but be tempted to suspect that there was a problem with the sky poison pearls natural scents. As his eyes carefully scanned the ground in a circle, aside from only weeds, Xyrochi could not find even the most common of medicinal herbs. Right when he was about to give up, his eyes suddenly landed on a place with some kind of indistinct variety. The Xioi of today had a sharp intuition. He raised his head and looked in the direction of the uncomfortable feeling that he suddenly felt for the first time in this world. There was a mass amount of weeds there as well, but a certain weed at the edge of a rock that had not been trampled had caught his attention. Xio Chi walked to the rock side and squatted down next to it and stared at the mass of weeds for a long time. Firmly locked in the middle of all those weeds were smaller weeds with a tenacious amount of vitality. Without interference, one can say that they are clinging on to dear life by rooting at every opening available. In the middle of those untrampled weeds was an even smaller chasm. The hole was very small, for only two blades of grass grew there. However, if one looked closely, it was apparent that the grass there was significantly different than that of the other weeds around them. A gust of the gentle night breeze blew by, swaying the small weeds in the area. At this time, Zyroi's eyes had been firmly locked onto the small hole, and suddenly saw the bizarre form of those two blades of grass. They appeared in a blink of an eye and then disappeared without a trace. Xioi's eyes widened, and he was suddenly filled with ecstasy. He quickly stretched out his left palm that contained the sky poison pearl towards the little hole. Under the faint green light, the two blades of grass slowly appeared again. Star concealing grass. It really is star concealing grass, and there were even two of them. Xioi, excited, growled in a low voice as he lowered his left hand with the intention of uprooting them. The sky poison pearl flashed, and the two blades of star concealing grass were recovered in the palm of Xio's hand. The high quality the medicinal herb was, the harder it was to harvest for even the slightest mistake during harvesting may cause damage to the materials and lower its efficiency or even completely destroy its effectiveness. But with the sky poison pearl, no matter how complicated the herb, one had no need to worry. The sky poison pearl could harvest a herb without bringing any possible harmful side effects by using its aura, completely wrapping around a herb without any sort of spiritual power leakage. Instead of saying that it was a surprise, it's better to say that this was a miracle. Looking at the two blades of star concealing grass that were partly hidden in the palm of his hand, Xio's arm quivered in excitement. In his entire 24-year life, he had traveled almost everywhere on the Azure cloud continent and only found one star concealing grass. However, on only the first day that he came to the profound sky continent, he had actually found two, and it was in his own family's back mountains. One could say that there was no difference when comparing the differences between a star concealing grass and the common weed, for it was almost impossible to differentiate between the two, even if one tried. At the same time, it had a very unusual ability. It could become invisible. In a way, it meant that if one wanted to find one, it would be even more difficult to do. His teacher had once told him that the star concealing grass was in treasure of the heavens and earth, but there were few who knew of its existence. The amount of people who had the ability to identify it were no more than five in the Azure cloud continent. In addition, the only thing in the world can could completely refine this heavenly treasure was the one and only sky poison pearl. This is truly the heaven's grace assisting me. Owning these two blades of star concealing grass is equivalent to having a Shfare trump card. After refining them into star concealing pills, my life would be insured. Even if I wanted to kill or rob people, I could do whatever I wanted to. Xioi laughed as he clenched the star concealing grass in the palm of his hand and sent it into the interpatial storage within the sky poison pearl. The flashing light that came from the sky poison pearl stopped completely after he did that. The happy Xioi no longer had a reason to linger any longer and turned to go back home. As he was turning around, a cold light suddenly flashed in the corner of his eye. Xio Cheese stopped in his tracks to turn in the direction of the cold light. In the not too dim moonlight, he saw a vague blurry mass less than 50 m north of him. It was an obscure white shadow. What was it? If it was a normal person, even with a decent amount of profound strength, one would still not dare venture forward in this scenario. But Xio Chi did not hesitate one bit as he walked directly toward that abnormal mass of white shadow. As he gradually approached, he suddenly discovered that it was actually a person. A very quiet person was lying there. Who are you? When he saw that the blurry image was that of a human, Xioi stopped walking and asked. The silhouette did not respond, and there was not even a single tiny bit of breathing movement coming from it. Had this person fainted or had died, who was this guy, why did this person collapse here? Wait, if this person had fallen in the daytime, someone would have already come upon this individual. Yet, it seemed as if Xyrochi was the first to discover this guy, which meant that this person had only appeared here just now. The earliest time would be after night completely fell. Zyro Chi did not hesitate and quickly walked closer. As he came before the body in front of him, he stared at the figure while in a days under the moonlight. This was actually a girl. The girl looked to be either 12 or 13 years old and wore a messy dress. Her daintily cute and petite body was curled up like a frightened kitten. Below her skirts hem revealed two slender snow white legs, but upon closer scrutiny, there was actually a distribution of little fine scars. She wore one black shoe on her foot, with the other shoe nowhere in sight. Her naked foot was like a delicate ice lotus, and her exquisite toes were as clear and translucent as a jade carving. The most striking detail on her body was her hair. It was unexpectedly like that of an evil demon's uncanny bright red color. The cold flash of light saw in the corner of his eye was actually the reflection of her head. A girl? How could a girl be here? And how could it be possible that she had that many scars on her body? What was the reasoning behind her hair color? Did the profound sky continent have people who were born with such red hair? Xioi bent over and stretched out his hand to gently shake the girl's shoulder. Little girl, little Xioi's voice suddenly stopped after he cried out in surprise. As quick as lightning, he retrieved his hands back from the girl's shoulders. This was because through her thin clothes, her body was completely cold without the heat that a living person should have. The most shocking feeling of all was when he came in contact with the girl's body. It emitted an extremely poisonous aura. Yes, it was highly noxious to a point that it scared him, for it was a kind poison that had the highest level of toxicity he had ever met, far exceeding that of all the poison knowledge he acquired from his past world. It was so terrible that once his hands came in contact, all the hairs on his body stood erect. At the same time he backed away, Xioi startled in surprise yet again. The weed and vegetation around the girl under the presence of the moonlight was not dark because of the lack of light. It was not dark green, but rather a horrible black burnt color. Even the land around her had become a pitch black. Xioi's heart thumped in piercing terror. If it weren't for the sky poison pearls allpurpose poison detoxification in his body, the instant he touched the girl's body, he would have had already been poisoned to death. In this world, how could there be such a terrible poison? The most malicious of all poisons wasn't that the sky poison pearl. Even back in the days when I used the sky poison pearl, it did not release such a horrible toxin. In fact, it was by far lower. Could it be that in this world there is something even more poisonous than the sky poison pearl? How did this little girl have such a terrible poison within her? And why was she lying in this area? Numerous doubts surfaced in Xioi's mind, but it was undoubtable that this little girl was dead. With this kind of severe poison, not even mentioning this little girl, even a strong sky profound realm practitioner would die instantly. Xiochi took a deep breath, and after a slight hesitation, he again put his hand on the girl's shoulder and slowly turned her lifeless body over. Under the moonlight, the girl's face appeared in his light of sight. He froze in shock as he looked at her as if he had lost his soul, unable to return back to reality. How can there be such a beautiful girl? Xioi's soul let out an uncontrollable tremorous cry. This girl was so beautiful, a monstrous beauty. So beautiful that she could probably steal souls. If he was not seeing her with his own eyes, he would never have believed that such a young girl could unexpectedly release such thrilling charm. As red as a demon, a face of white jade, each of her facial features were all beautiful to the extreme, and all of them combined together made her unbelievably perfect. Xioqi could not find any words to describe this girl's exquisite appearance. He was obviously looking at her from a close distance, but in his heart, he felt as if she was an illusion come to life because in his subconscious mind, he did not dare to imagine that there existed someone in this world who had such a perfect face. Ziaingu was the number one beauty in Floating Cloud City, and even in the Blue Wind Empire, there probably wasn't anyone that could compare to her. However, when Xioi saw this girl's face, he was stunned as if his soul had been punched heavily. He never would have thought that he would be so strong affected to the depths of his soul by only a person's face. She only looked like 12 to 13 at the moment. If she grew up to the age that Zia Kingu was at, that would be simply unimaginable. Maybe then she could cause chaos with only just a smile. But such a beautiful girl was killed by a toxin that a poison expert like Zyro Chi had never seen before. And she had died on the land of the Xyro clan. Xioi could not figure out what poison it was and why it was here. He only felt that it was such a misfortune. It was unfortunate that this beautiful girl had been so brutally destroyed. What kind of people would actually be cruel enough to have the heart to kill such a beautiful girl? Xio Chi looked at the contaminated black vegetation and land around him. He hesitated for a moment, but still ended up stretching out his left hand to press his palm against the girl's cold chest. The sky poison Pearl then quickly started to detoxify the poison in her body. This was the Xio clan's back mountain. Judging from the power of the poison in her body, if it continued to spread, the entire mountain could end up a dead mountain. Although the sky poison pearls power had almost disappeared, it still had the ability to detoxify poisons. The sky poison pearl in his palm continued to shine, purifying the poison in the girl's body. Soon after, Xioi felt a slight fluctuation in the girl's chest and saw the girl slowly open her eyes one by one. She had a pair of exceptionally very black demonic looking eyes that flashed mysteriously as she blinked. As Xiochi met her eyes, he felt a horror equal to that of falling down a deep abyss that gave his heart a fright. This girl, who was extremely poisonous without any breath, and had a deathly cold body, had now opened her eyes. The girl reached out her right hand slowly and firmly seized Xio's left wrist when he was still in shock. She moved her lips and let out a voice. The voice clearly said, "Sky, poison, pearl." Xio quivered as if hit by an earthquake. He could not believe his ears. Sky Poison Pearl was an object brought here by him from the Azure cloud continent. It did not exist in the profound sky continent. But this girl had just said the name Sky Poison Pearl. Did he hear that wrong or was it just a coincidence? Little girl, you ah followed by the sound of Xiochi's sharp moaning pain. The girl opened her lips and firmly bit on his left finger. Blood then started to stream down Zio's middle and index finger, all flowing into the girl's mouth without a drop on the ground. Alarmed, Xiochi tried to pull his hand back. Although the girl's little snow white hand looked delicate, her grip was as strong as iron as she bit him while holding his hand tight. Xioi had used his full strength, but he was unable to withdraw his hand. His eyes gradually widened as he felt as if all the blood in his body flowed to his left hand by an irresistible force to then end up being sucked into the girl's mouth. "She's sucking my blood?" The girl closed her sinister dark eyes and sucked on his finger greedily like an infant drinking milk. Who was this girl? This girl had obviously been poisoned to a deadly degree. Yet, she left him unable to break free of her grasp. After desperately trying to pry himself free many times, he finally gave up as he helplessly watched her suck his blood. Xyrochi was already born with a weak body, but after losing such a huge amount of blood, his head started to feel dizzy as he wondered if his blood would be sucked dry by this unknown girl. The pain from his left hand finger suddenly disappeared, and the hand that tightly gripped his wrist had slowly loosened. Xiochi stepped back, looking at the perfect girl with a dark expression who was just sucking his blood. But after a while, the girl didn't do anything. Just like when Xioi first saw her, she was just laying there with her eyes closed and no breathes. Xiochi took a few steps back and looked at the perfect girl with a dark expression on his face. Just now, the girl had been clearly sucking his blood. But after a while, the girl did not move at all, looking just like the time Zio Chi first met her. She was just quietly lying there with her eyes closed soundlessly and breathlessly. Who? A cold gust of night wind went by, brushing against Zyro Cheese's back and the girl's body. In the cold wind, the girl's body scattered with the windlike mist, completely vanishing from sight, leaving only a broken white skirt, a pair of black princess shoes, and a red butterfly clip. Xyrochi disappeared. A weird sensation came from his left palm. His heart immediately shivered with an astonished expression. He then closed his eyes and spiritually moved his conscious into the space within the sky poison pearl. The green interspatial storage within the sky poison pearl was supposed completely empty. When he entered inside this time, he saw a quiet floating snow white jade body in front of him. Xioi widened his eyes as he used his hand to cover his nose for the first time in his life. This girl was that little girl who had sucked his blood. The only difference was that she had not a strand of thread on her body, and her entirely naked body appeared in front of his eyes. Her eyes were closed tight, and her snow-like face was tranquil. Her long, bloody hair fell down, dancing by itself without the slightest breeze. Her skin were as tenderly smooth, moist, and as white as an infants, with delicate baby fat. The girl's eyebrows were like emerald feathers. Her waist was thin, and her legs were daintily straight, as if made of jade. Although she was young, her upper body had considerably matured. Her snow white breasts were like two jade pearls on her perfect body, as soft as the springtime shoots of bamboo. A beautiful, breathtaking sight. This was a body that was still not matured yet, but there was still the release of a stunning charm that would steal souls in her immaturity. It was as if all the beauty in the world had been mustered inside this body of ultimate perfection. Xyro Chi used his will to concentrate as hard as he could to move his eyes away from her body. He turned around while still clutching his nose. The instant he saw the girl's body, he felt as if his blood would flow upwards. He believed that if he continued to watch her, his blood would definitely spurt out. Why was she not wearing clothes? No, that wasn't the main point. She had clearly disappeared before. So, how did she suddenly appear inside his sky poison pearl? The sky poison pearl had fused with his body, so I should be the only one who could control it. How could she appear in here without my command? Was it because she sucked my blood? What the hell was going on? Xioi's brain became a total mess. Even with his two lifetimes worth of academic experience, he was unable to understand what had happened. Xioi withdrew his consciousness from the sky poison pearl and picked up the girl's clothes from the ground. He purified the poison on them before sending the clothes back into the sky poison pearl, then quickly covered the girl's body with them before letting out a small sigh of relief. What kind of person was this girl really? Why did she appear here? Why did she suck his blood? How did she know about the sky poison pearl? And how did she enter the sky poison pearl? Xioi could not think up of an answer for any of these questions. He silently watched this girl for a long time and then stretched out a hand to lightly touch her upper lip. His fingertips immediately felt a tiny bit of warmth, a contrast to the earlier icy coldness. A weak breath could also be felt, evenly brushing against his fingertips. These were all signs of life. Little sister, Xioi called, shaking her body. No matter what the time, a woman's appearance was her strongest bargaining chip and most powerful weapon. If this girl wasn't as beautiful as a fairy, but instead horrendously ugly to a point that one would throw up for 3 days with just a glance, Xioi would absolutely without hesitation kick her out from the sky poison pearl. But this girl was not only thoroughly shrouded in mystery, but it also just then bit his finger and forcefully sucked his blood, causing his body to break out in a cold sweat. She even strangely appeared within the sky poison pearl. However, when Xio Chi looked at her rather than the previous sense of danger, he instead felt an undeniable sense of pity. This was because this girl was such a beauty so beautiful that it was impossible for anyone to associate her with the word danger. Rather than a man's natural instinct, it was more appropriate to say that this would be countless men's most base of nature. Xioi shouted for a long time, but the girl did not respond at all. He stepped back a few paces and then silently gazed at her. This girl was definitely not normal, Xioi thought to himself. From the scars that were on her body and her ripped up clothing, it was easy to see that the poison on her body wasn't accidentally spilled, but rather forcefully applied by someone else. For this young girl, the most ordinary poison would have been enough to kill her. But her enemy instead used a poison so strong that it alarmed even him. The person able to use this kind of poison was definitely a very frightening person. What was even more frightening was that even with her entire body covered in this poison, she still had not died yet. Then what should he do with her? Should he just let her quietly sleep inside the sky poison pearl? Xioi pondered for a long time before silently leaving the sky poison pearl, leaving the girl inside. Although this girl had just then sucked his blood, it seemed to be an unconscious behavior. A girl this beautiful, how could she possibly be evil? If he took a step back to think about it at such a young age, how could she become a threat? He also had no idea when she'll wake up. After purifying the poison on the ground to the best of his ability, Xioi started to leave. In the dead of night, he could only hear his own footsteps. When he was only about a hundred steps from the Xio clan's back wall, he suddenly saw a shadow walk directly towards him. His footsteps suddenly stopped as he looked ahead, who was sneaking out here this late. The shadow in front of him also discovered him and stopped vigilantly asking, "Who is it?" This voice caused Xioi to immediately stare, involuntarily, saying, "Little ant." Ah. The shadow let out a quiet gasp, then quickly ran over. Coming closer, the moonlight revealed a dainty but charmingly elegant cheek. It was precisely Xyro Linky. Upon clearly seeing Xyrochi, she opened her eyes wide. Xyrochi, why are you here? I, Xyrochi, scratched his head. I couldn't sleep, so I came out to stargaze. Stargaze, tonight is your wedding night. You aren't with your Zia king you consummating. Consummating your marriage, but instead came out here to stargaze. Xio Linkxy grabbed Xioi's arm, an angry pout on her face. Don't you know that it's dangerous here? From time to time, profound beasts will come out, and when it's this dark, sometimes bandits will come here. What would happen if you carelessly ran into them? I have told you many times now, if I or your grandfather aren't by your side, you absolutely can't come out here, even if it's during the day. You actually did not listen to my words. As she talked, Xio Linksy also angrily pinched Xioi's arm as punishment. Ah, it hurts. It hurts. Xioi hurriedly yelled and then apologetically said, "Little aunt, I know I'm in the wrong. Next time, I definitely won't dare. You want there to be a next time?" Xoliny glared at him with her beautiful eyes. There definitely won't be a next time. If I want to come to the rear mountains in the future, I definitely will call for little aunt to come with me. Xioi solemnly vowed. With that said, if it weren't for his extra life's worth of memories, he definitely wouldn't dare to come out to this place alone at night. That's more like it. There's not allowed to be a next time. Then, little aunt, why did you come here? It's<unk> this late already? Xioi asked, confused. I Xoliny's voice lowered, her eyes appearing a bit hollow. I don't know why, but I couldn't sleep tonight. Then I saw that the stars were really bright tonight, so I wanted to come to the rear mountains to take a look. Xioi looked up at the sky, then said with a smile, "In the past, little Aunt and I would frequently sneak out here at night to enjoy the evening wind and look at the stars, and would frequently get caught and scolded by grandfather." Xolini responded, then quietly said, "I also thought about that, so I thought I'd see how it felt to come out by myself to stargaze because in the future, I might not be able to stargaze with Little Chi." Ah, why stupid? Because Little Chi is married. In the future, you should be accompanying your wife, Kingu, to bed at night rather than coming out to enjoy the evening wind and stargaze. Xoliny coldly glanced at him and then pouted for some reason. That's not true. As long as little aunt is willing, no matter when, I would willingly come here with little aunt to stargaze. See, aren't I doing that with you right now? Xioi said with a smile. You're still saying that, sneaking to the rear mountains during your wedding night. Ah, you weren't forced out here by Zia Kingu, were you? Upon thinking of that, Xio Links face filled with rage and she stamped her feet. Hmp, that's too excessive. I'm going to go find her. You don't need to worry about her. Xioi grabbed Xolin's hand. I wasn't forced out here by her. I came out by myself. Maybe I just carelessly predicted that I'd meet little aunt here. Come on, let's go to that place. Ah. Leading Zyro Lynxy by the hand, Zyroi jogged through the cool evening wind towards that familiar place. This was a small hilltop covered by soft and tender grass. Zyro Chi and Xyro Linkxy leaned against each other shoulderto-shoulder, bathing in the occasional evening wind, their hearts at peace. I thought that after little Chi got married, I would lose a large part of you. Zia Kingu is so beautiful, better than me in every aspect. I was afraid that once you had her, you would always stay at her side, leaving me with less and less time with you. Looking at the night sky, Xio Lynxy's eyes overflowed with a wavering light that was even brighter than the stars. Little aunt really didn't believe my words at all. Xioi bitterly replied, "I clearly said this morning that in my heart 100 Zakinyus won't compare to Little Ant. Little aunt forced me. Wait, no. Promised with me. I firmly remember and will definitely willingly comply. After I marry Zia Kingu, I won't forget about little aunt just because I have a wife. I'll spend the same amount of time with little aunt like before, I will listen to little aunts calls and would arrive as soon as I'm called, just like before. And lastly, although Ziaingu is now my wife in my heart, she definitely won't outweigh Little Aunt. I guarantee that I remembered every word right. Xoliny had a dumbfounded expression on her face and the look in her eyes blurred. I know that was a bit excessive. I was just just playing around. You really kept it in your heart all along. Of course. Xioi nodded without hesitation. Because little aunt and grandfather are the most important people in my life. Other people can't compare. Little aunt, I promise you, even though I'm now married, you won't ever lose me, just like I hope to never lose you. He he. Xio Linkxy happily smiled, her hands hugging Xiochi's arm. She rested her head on his shoulder. As expected, my little Chi is the most well- behaved, most obedient. A dark cloud floated through the sky, temporarily blocking the full moon, immediately dimming the surrounding lighting. Now that I think about it, it's been a long time. No, it seems like it's been quite a few months since we came out here to stargaze together. When we were little, whether it was winter or summer, we would frequently sneak out here. I remember one winter night at this very spot. Of course, the sky was filled with many stars. We watched for a long time, then accidentally fell asleep against each other. Turns out that it unexpected snowed that night, and we were frozen while sleeping. When father found us, we had already become two little snowmen. Afterwards, we only recovered after staying next to the stove for 2 days and drinking a lot of bitter medicine. Father was really angry but was reluctant to spank me not to mention you. So after we got better, he made us shovel a large patch of snow as punishment. Xioi continued with a smile. And then we only shoveled for a bit before we started playing in the snow. We even made a big snowman that really looked like grandfather. He didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. Once he started laughing, he completely forgot about our punishment. Uh-huh. Father was always like that. He usually looks really fierce, but he could never bring himself to spank us even once and would only put on a show to scare us. No matter what, as long as we threw even a small tantrum, he would obediently listen to us. Xio Lynxy's face was full of warm laughter. One time wasn't like that. Xio's smile became vague. On my 12th birthday, when you were 11, grandfather got you a small courtyard and forbid you from sleeping together with me in the future. I remember you would beg grandfather every day, crying and shouting and even angrily stopped eating. But grandfather was extremely unyielding. No matter what, he wouldn't let you sleep in the same bed with me. As time passed by, you could only obediently follow his order. That That's because I was really young and had a lot of things that I didn't understand. Xoliny lightly pinched Xioi's shoulder. Some girl things I only learned after growing up. HMPH. What things? Xioi widely opened his eyes, his face full of suspicion. That that boys and girls can't sleep together after they grow up. I can't believe you didn't know. Thinking about what had happened before, Xoliny added another sentence. Also, they can't randomly kiss like when they were little. Ah, so it's like that. Xioi glanced at Xio Linkxy lovely cheek dyed jade under the bright and beautiful starlight. He quietly leaned closer. But I always want to kiss you. What should I do then? Marry me," Xio Linkxy replied with a proud face, her pink cheeks raising slightly. "If you weren't my little aunt, I would definitely marry you," Xiochi said without thinking. After saying that, Xyrochi immediately stared blankly ahead. Zyro Lynxy's expression also froze as she vacantly stared at him as if they had both been struck dumb. "Um, little ant, why are you looking at me with such a strange expression?" Suddenly realizing that the atmosphere had become a bit awkward, Xioi held his breath for a while before cautiously asking. Only then did Xio Lynxy's beautiful eyes, which had a dazed look for a long time, tremble slightly. She hastily rested her gaze away and lowered her head, softly spitting out, "Aren't you afraid that your wife Kingu will hear those words that you said just now?" Xio Chi put on a show of looking around and then innocently said, "It doesn't seem like there's anyone around us, so what are you afraid of? But even if she did hear me, I still don't have anything to fear. You did not know that she actually doesn't sincerely want to marry me. And I also do not really want to be married to her. If it was little aunt, though, I don't talk. Don't keep talking." Xio Linkxy reached out her hand and forcefully pressed them against his lips, firmly sealing his next words. Only after a long time did she release him. Once again, resting her body against Xio's shoulder, peacefully saying, "Little Chi, even though I'm younger than you by a year, I am truly without a doubt your little aunt. There are some words that you can say to other girls that you cannot say to me in this lifetime. You cannot say them. I know in your heart you really think like this, but that's enough." At the last two sentences, Xio Lynxy's voice had become very, very quiet. Within her muttering contained a sense of bitterness and sadness that would break the heart of anyone listening. Xio's heart also heavily shook. He didn't say anything else, closed his eyes, and peacefully listened to the breathing and heartbeat of the girl beside him. When I was young, I was thin, dark, and short. Everyone called me an ugly duckling and always made fun of me. Bullied me. Xio Lynxy snuggled against him, a dreamy voice escaping from her mouth. Only you would play with me. When someone bullied me, little Chi would always rush up to fight with them and chase them away. You were always covered in cuts and bruises. The injuries you received at that time were all because of me. I got used to and also enjoyed the feeling of little Chi's protection. I believed that you would always be able to protect me this way. Xyro Links words reminded Xyrochi of the younger Zyro Linksy. At that time she truly was thin, dark, and short as she had just described in every sense an ugly duckling. But because she was his little aunt as a man, and also because he was older than her by a year, he would always, as if it was his mission, protect her with all his might. Who could have thought that this young woman would become very different from the little girl she once was? The once ugly duckling had transformed into today's beauty. Who knows how many young men of the Xyro clan would watered at the mouth while longing for her. T L idiom. This girl changed 18 times between childhood and her coming of age. Afterwards, little Chi found out that his profound veins were deformed. I started to bitterly cultivate my profound strength right away because it was my turn to protect Little Chi. At that time, I thought whether it was Little Chi protecting me or me protecting Little Chi, it was all one and the same. Either way, we could be together. It wasn't until I slowly grew up that I understood that Little Chi would find a wife and that I would also have to get married. By that time, we absolutely could not be as we were before. In addition, out of all the girls in the world, the only one little Chi could not marry was me. Out of all the boys in the world, the only one that I could not marry was Little Chi, Xioi. After such a long time, I thought I had already completely accepted it. Today, little Chi got married. I should be really happy. But from morning to evening, it was like something had been stuffed in my heart. It was an indescribable pain. When I wanted to sleep, I couldn't fall asleep no matter what I did. And little Chi, when you said those kinds of words to me, I was somewhat happy, yet also really sad what has happened to me. Xio's stomach heavily lurched. While he still had not spoken at this time, he also had no idea what he should say. The dangerously hazy feeling between him and Xyro Lynxy was born a long time ago. When they became conscious of these kinds of dangerous forbidden feelings, they still stayed together night and day, but never had even a bit of honest conversation about it. Rather, in their hearts, they blamed it on familial affection. The hymn without the lifetime of memories from Azure Cloud continent had a cowardly and self-abased personality. Even until death, he would only try to escape the words that were impossible for him to say it out loud, until those kinds of feelings were completely buried. Xolini had not revealed her feelings before today, even once. But the Xiochi of today was not the Xioi from yesterday, and he said those earthshattering words. In response, the indecisive Xoliny at this isolated rear mountain hilltop in the depth of night, had let out her insuppressible feelings that she was forbidden to say. Xiochi's heart began to beat at an erratic pace. As he inhaled this enrapturing girl's fragrance, he extended his right arm, lightly embracing Xio Lynxy's body. Xio Lynxy's body quivered slightly, but did not resist. She closed her eyes, quietly nestling on top of him with her entire body weight. The girl's lovely body was soft, as if without bones, was like warm, fragrant, and soft jade. Her tender and satiny skin, though separated by a few layers of clothing, could still cause a person's soul shake. Xioqi did not dare to embrace her too strongly, afraid that he would carelessly frighten or hurt her. However, immediately he felt a pair of jade-like arms stealthily wrap around his back, taking the initiative to hold him closer and closer. A gust of faint aromatic scent from an unknown place also entered his nose and then continued deep into his heart. Xolin's willingness dissolved the hesitation in Xioi's heart. He extended his left arm to embrace her slender waist, but his mind suddenly froze. His arm's destination had accidentally changed. Upon landing, the feeling of a soft and warm lump was transmitted to his hand. "Ah!" Xio Lynxy's mouth let out a moan. Xioi's mind was a mess. He immediately wanted to remove his hand, but Xio Links soft jade arm rested on top of the hand that had grabbed her first. At first, Ziochi thought she wanted to swat away the hand that had accidentally violated her. But her jade-like hand only grasped his palm and rested there, not moving away, but not allowing him to flail about. Between these proudly towering breasts, Xioi still could clearly feel her wild heartbeat. The sound of Xio Lynxy's breath was rough and heavy. A blush had long ago extended from her face to her snowcolored jade neck. She tightly closed her eyes and burrowed her head against his chest, completely motionless, as if trying hard to prove that she had already fallen asleep. Xioi also closed his eyes, completely still and completely silent. The two of them peacefully cuddling against each other. At this point, neither of them were willing to talk, for that would break this completely undisturbed dream. The night had grown deeper. When Zia Kingu found them, they were still the same position, but had fallen into a deep sleep. Zia Kingu had come out to look for Xio Chi. She originally thought he had just left to take a breath of fresh air. While he was out taking a breath of fresh air, she had also left the bed and laid out the blanket in that corner so that he could safely sleep there upon his return. But after waiting a long time, he still had not come back. Instead, from the direction of the earlier sounds, he seemed to have climbed over the wall toward the Xio clan's rear mountains. With his weak profound strength at only the first level of the elementary profound realm, he had gone to the rear mountains for such a long time without coming back. In the middle of the night, Zeia Kingu finally was unable to hold back and came out to look for him, thus letting her witness this scene before her. That caused her to stare dumbfoundedly. Today was her and Xioi's first day as a married couple. When he picked her up on the road to the XO clan, his tranquil attitude contained proudness. In the assembly hall, he held back his anger and hatred. In the bridal chamber, though he said all kinds of things and had a vulgar mouth, his expression and the look in his eyes unceasingly swayed fascinatingly between confusion, unwillingness, and despondence. There was even a desolate loneliness that even she could not understand. But now the hymn nestled together with Xio Lynxy was sleeping with incomparable steadiness. The corner of his mouth was raised very slightly, clearly revealing a warm smile. His five cents were completely relaxed, his expression loose, tranquil, and peaceful like a baby sleeping in his mother's bosom. Suddenly, an uncomfortable feeling floated up in Ziaingu<unk>s heart. Of course, this didn't mean that she had any feelings towards Xioi, but she and Xioi had become a married couple. She had always believed that this marriage was just a formality for her, that the status as husband or wife were also mere titles, and that nothing could cause even the slightest ripple in her heart. However, in some things, the heart does not always follow a person's expectation. This was especially true for women who, unless they had no heart, were more prone to sentimentality. After all, she and Xioi were already husband and wife. Although in her thoughts she didn't care at all about this kind of union, but the fact that Xio Chi was now her husband would still be distinctly imprinted in her subconscious. Since he was her husband, he should rightfully belong only to her. Instead, on his wedding night, he had cuddled with another woman until they had both fallen asleep with such a warm and content expression on his face. Her subconscious naturally would raise that kind of unfamiliar reaction, even if the girl was his little aunt. This kind of uncomfortable feeling caused her usually tranquil and frozen fairylike heart to twinge slightly. This sense of irritation allowed her to immediately wake up from her revery and quickly focus all her attention to still her heart. After a long while, the prickly feeling gradually disappeared, and her heart had already completely cleared. She did not disturb Xioi and Xio Lynxy and with light footsteps left without a sound. After a short while, Zia Kingu unhurriedly returned with a crimson blanket in her arms. She carefully laid the blanket on top of Xioi and Xio Lynxy's bodies and once again left without a sound. When Xioi woke up, it was already dawn. Nestled against his chest, Xoliny was still sleeping soundly, her sleeping posture charmingly sweet. if one ignored the large glob of saliva on his chest. His sleepfoged mind gradually cleared up and bit by bit last night's scene replayed in Xio's head. Though his shoulder was numb and sore after an entire night, he didn't dare move even a little as to not disturb Xio Lynxy's peaceful sleep. It was also at this time that he suddenly discovered the crimson blanket covering his body. Well, Fck. As he raised his hand to grab the blanket, a low, uncontrollable roar spewed out of Xioi's mouth. This clearly was the blanket that was just prepared yesterday and had been laid out on the bridal chamber bed. Xiochi looked up in the direction of his own courtyard, his heart letting loose a groan on the wedding night. Not only was he not in the bridal chamber, but had also went out and slept with another woman all night. His newly wed wife had also personally run over to deliver a blanket. This scenario was truly thrilling. It was early morning. The sky had barely begun to brighten when the master of the Xio clan, Xio Yunhai, was woken from his deep sleep by the sound of urgent knocking on his door. Clan master, clan master, are you awake? Xio Yunhai opened his eyes, took a glance at the light outside, and then asked with a frown, "This early in the morning, what happened?" "It's the Xyro Xyro sect." A letter from the Xyro sect. From outside the door came this excited, trembling voice. What? The Xyro sect? This master of the XYO clan, one of the most powerful people in floating Cloud City, sprung up from his bed as if stabbed by a dagger on the butt. He half-hazardly threw on his clothes and not even bothering to straighten his hair, threw open the door hastily, grabbing the Xyroclan disciple that was outside. He bellowed with wide eyes. You said the Xyro sect. The Xyro sect? Yes, it's definitely the Xyro sect. That Xyro clan disciple swallowed with great difficulty, nodded with all his strength, and then presented the letter in his hand to Xyro Yunhai. This letter has the eagle seal of the Xyro sect. In this Blue Wind Empire, no one would dare to forge the Xyro sects insignia. As soon as he saw the Skyhawk seal on the letter, Xyro Yunhai's entire body shook. He fiercely grabbed the letter, then with violently shaking hands, quickly but carefully tore it open to reveal the paper within. Although the Xyroex name had only one word of difference if compared to his Xyro clan, that one word was like the difference between the clouds and mud, the Xyro clan barely counted as the leading presence in Floating Cloud City. But on the profound sky continent as a whole, it was simply a nameless existence. However, the Xyro sect is one of the four strongest sects in the Blue Wind Empire. They have the same level of prestige as the Heavenly Sword Villa, Frozen Cloud Asgard, and the Burning Heaven Clan. They were in existence that the Xyro clan could not even hope to look up to. To put it bluntly, a useless servant in the Xyo sect would not even find it necessary to respect the XO clan's master. However, there was a connection between the Zio Clan and the Xio sect. That is because the person that founded Floating Cloud City's Xyro clan 160 years ago, Xio was at the time a person from the Xyro sect. To be more precise, he was an abandoned disciple and as rumor had it, the son of one of the elders at the time. However, Xioi was the result of that elder raping one of the Xioex serving girls while drunk. Since childhood, his appearance was ordinary and his talent was lacking. Furthermore, he attracted a large amount of gossip, causing that elder a great amount of displeasure. Upon reaching adulthood, his profound strength was the lowest among all of his peers. To let him remain at the Xyro sect would only cause that elder more humiliation. So, he found an opportunity to send him to that piece of place, the rural floating cloud city, and helped him establish the Xyro clan. From then on, he paid no more attention to Xyroy and cut off all contact between them and the Xyro sect. But Zyroy nevertheless was born in the proud Zyro sect. He spent his entire life painstakingly cultivating his profound strength, hoping to gain recognition and thus one day earned their approval and one day returned to Xio sect. After he died, this desire was passed down through the XYO clan from one generation to the next and became ultimate goal of every generation of the Xio clan, especially among each generation's clan master. All without exception hoped that they could rely on the tiny bit of Xio sect blood in them to establish a relationship, no matter how fragile, with the Xio sect. But after all these years, the Xyro clan never produced a person that could fulfill this wish. Talk of the Xyro sect to them was like that of the celestial palace, something that they couldn't even hope to reach. However, today the Xyro sect had taken the initiative to send a letter. This couldn't fail to send Xyro Yunhai into joyful hysteria. The excitement making him feel as if he was in a dream. After reading the letters contents word by word, Xio Yunhai's face was completely red, his breathing erratic. He pointed a trembling finger outside, horarssely, saying, "Quickly, quickly inform the elders to immediately gather at the main hall. Tell them we need to discuss big news concerning the future of our Xyro clan. Go quick." "Ah, yes." The Xyroclan disciple immediately answered and ran off in a panic. Xioi carefully opened the door, crimson blanket in hand, only to find that Zia Kingu was already sitting beside the bed, awake and dressed. Her beautiful eyes that were as calm as water, watched him without even a tiny ripple. Xioi immediately tossed the blanket on the table with a face not red and a heart not racing, he calmly asked, "Wife, you're up so early. Did you sleep well last night? You're not going to first tell me where you went last night?" Zia Kingu faintly asked, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly. No need. Xioi stretched his body and then started to straighten his hair using the mirror. Because I know you definitely aren't interested, Zia Kingu. Although he fell asleep at the rear mountains with Xio Lynxy last night when he woke up, his mood was unusually good. After he straightened out his clothes and hair slightly, returning to his pretty boy image, Xio Chi stood up to leave and said, "Let's go. It's the morning of the first day. We have to go pay our respects to grandfather. This you won't refuse, right? Zia Kingu stood without a word and stepped out of the door ahead of him. Xiochi loosened his shoulders and quickly followed her out. Xoli woke up early every day and today was no exception. Upon entering Xoli<unk>'s courtyard, the first thing they saw was him watering his flowers and plants. As he saw Zyroi and Zia Kingu enter, he gently smiled. You came. Under Zyro lies attentive gaze. Zyrochi quickly reached out and held Zia Kingu<unk>s small hand in his own. Zyro Kingu<unk>s hand was soft and smooth, yet also cool to the touch, perhaps because she was trained in the frozen cloud arts. Zia Kingu<unk>s entire body stiffened. Right before she was about to yank her hand free from Xioi, she noticed Xio<unk>'s gaze and had no choice but to quietly tolerate it. She let Xiochi walk to Xio lie with her, hand in hand. Her father was always very respectful towards Xyoli, and she was no different. In front of just Xioi, she could show him not a single bit of affection. But if she were to shake off Xio's hand in front of Zai, then she can only imagine how ugly his face would become. This despicable scoundrel, "Grandfather, you're up so early today again." Xiochi led Zio Kingu over and naturally greeted Xio Lee with the courtesy of a junior. Kingu pays her respects to grandfather. Kingu lightly curtsied, her posture gentle and dignified. The fact that it was her first time being led by the hand and used by such underhanded methods left her both angry and helpless if it weren't for the fact that her profound strength would be detected by this elderly man at the apex of the spirit profound realm. She would have definitely used the frozen cloud arts to freeze Xiochi until he grimaced. Haha, you two also woke up very early. Seeing Xyrochi and Xyro King<unk>s intimate appearance, Xyrochi's face revealed a cheerful expression. Chi Kingu, even though the age of 16 is a bit early to get married, it also set a part of my heart at ease. King Yu, you should already know about Chi's condition. Frankly speaking, this wedding honestly was not fair to you. But our family will spare no expense to make it up to you. Right now, my greatest wish is to see the two of you peacefully live your lives. Zia Kingu had not managed to reply before Xiochi hurriedly said, "Grandfather, don't say that. I, Xioi, am your grandson. There isn't a woman under heaven that I'm not fit for. Where did we wrong her?" After joining the family, of course, she'd come pay her respects to grandfather and then carefully take care of me as the days pass. If she doesn't do it right, then I'll divorce her and find a better wife. Don't you agree, King? You my wife? If it weren't for the fact that Xoli was standing right in front of them, Zia Kingu would definitely have forever frozen Xioi's mouth shut with a gust of the frozen cloud fair's secret arts. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Xio li burst into laughter, helplessly shaking his head. He looked at Xioi with a pampering look. Oh, you king had only just joined the family and you're already bullying her like this. King Yu, don't listen to his nonsense. Chi, this brat hasn't had an honest mouth since he was young. You two should not have eaten this early, right? Knowing that the two of you would come, old Hong already had the kitchen send over breakfast. Come, let's<unk> eat together. Yes, grandfather, that's right. Should we call for little aunt to come as well? She had always loved to sleep since she was young. Since it's still early, let's not bother her. The dining table inside the house was indeed already ladened with three justcooked portions of breakfast. Xioi never let go of her hand and dragged Zia Kingu who was with great efforts trying to look natural to sit shoulder by shoulder on one side of the table. Xoli began to take his seat opposite them. He had only touched his seat when the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside accompanied by a coarse voice. Fifth elder is the fifth elder here. What is it? Xoli stood up and slightly wrinkled his brow. Clan clan masters order. All elders are to immediately go to the main hall to discuss news concerning the future of the Xyro clan. You must immediately go. Zyro Li stood up, grabbed the jacket offered to him by Zyro Hong, and then spoke to Xyrochi and Zia Kingu. Looks like it's an emergency. You two eat first. There's no need to wait for me. There wasn't a single time in Xi's memory where in such urgent summon came so early in the morning. He draped his jacket over his body, then quickly left. Zyro Li had only just left, but Zyrochi's hand left Zia King as fast as lightning. His body also jumped backwards with a whoosh as his eyebrows slanted slightly. He said with a grim face, Kingu, my wife, you are very clever, so you should definitely understand that the reason I held your hand was to give grandfather some peace of mind. I definitely don't have any other intentions. Even though I didn't get your approval beforehand, you definitely wouldn't lash out in anger, right? Zia Kingy<unk>s expression had indeed become a bit icy. She coldly spoke. If you dare to randomly touch my body again, then I won't be this polite anymore. Hey, you wouldn't go that far, right? Xioi watched her with wide eyes and a depressed look on his face. I only held your hand and you're already so angry. We are still a genuine couple. Even if you're only married me to repay a debt of gratitude, we're still husband and wife. Since we're a married couple, it's normal for me to touch everywhere, not to mention the hand. No, rather, that's how it's supposed to be. You've been married to me less than a day, and yet I've always been cold and indifferent. You wouldn't even let me sleep on the same bed on the wedding night. Now, even holding your hand causes you to get so angry, sobs, "What kind of wife did I marry? It's practically even worse than taking an empress for a wife." Zia's temperament was more and more giving Zia Kingu a feeling of helplessness. The first time she saw him, she felt that he was cold and proud. Gradually, she also felt that his disposition was not ordinary and even held a touch of mystery. Many times, he gave her the feeling that this wasn't in fact a 16-year-old, but rather an adult man with many years of experience, save for his uncouthed nature that would be revealed whenever he wasn't careful. And now, even though he clearly had shamelessly violated her, he still acted as if he had done no wrong. Instead, like a little brat, he brazenly complained, firmly turning her from the victim to the villain. For a moment, she was dumbfounded and didn't know whether she should laugh or cry. Even the anger in her chest had unwittingly dissipated by a large amount. "Forget it. Let's<unk> sit and eat," Zia Kingu said powerlessly. "In other words, my wife Kingu isn't angry anymore. He he that's more like an obedient wife. Come, let's<unk> eat a lot." Xioi immediately climbed across the table and then sat back down next to Ziaingu, passing the green bean cake on his plate to hers. Ziaingu began to suspect that the request she had made to her teacher to stay by his side for one month was both an erroneous and dangerous decision. Only after Xioi and Ziaingu finished eating breakfast did Xio lie return, an unprecedentedly heavy look written on his face along with a bit of shock that had yet to completely disperse. Grandfather, what happened? Xiochi promptly stood up and asked. A major event for the XO clan. This is an enormous matter. Xoli said, yet his furrowed brow loosened. But it shouldn't have much to do with us. An enormous matter? What kind of matter is it? Xioi was even more astonished. It's the Xyro sect. The Xyro sect? This time, not only Xyrochi, but even Zia Kingu raised an eyebrow. About half an hour ago, the clan master received a letter from the Xyro sect. The letter said that the Xio sect will immediately send a group of people here. Not only that, but the leader of that group is the XYO sects current sect master Xio Jewish youngest son. Xoli said slowly. This news caused Xyrochi to fall quiet for a long while before saying, "If that's true, then something doesn't make sense. While our Xyro clan did come from the Xyro sect 160 years ago, the Xyro sect has always treated us with contemptuous disgust. With more than 100 years of separation, there couldn't be anyone in the Xio sect that would care about our tiny XO clan. Why would they suddenly send people here? But to say that they're plotting something, the Xyro sects influence covers the sky. Why would they need to plot against us? To say that they're granting us a favor is even more impossible. Xoli shook his head and said, "Of course, there's a reason. Our Xyro clan's founding ancestor, Xyobily, was secretly expelled from the Xyro sect because his talent was just too poor. But his father was at the time the Xyro sex enforcement hall's elder, Xioenang. Not long ago, Xioang died. In the year before he died, his thoughts no longer were of chasing power and fame, but rather that he still had Xio as a son. After 100 years without contact, his heart was ashamed. He left behind a dying wish, hoping that the Xyro sect could after his death find Zyroy's descendants and from their youth select the most talented candidate to take back to the Xyro sect to cultivate. This also serves as an apology for the disregard that he had shown Xio and the subsequent expulsion. An ordinary person can't live to be over 100. But when one's profound strength reaches a certain point, living for a few hundred years wasn't out of the question. It said that once one breaks through to the emperor profound realm, their life expectancy would span thousands of years. After listening to Xio's words, Xio Chi first pondered and then felt relieved. No wonder the Xyro sect would suddenly voluntarily send people to visit. Turns out it was this kind of thing. It seemed that the deceased Xyroen still had some status among the Xyro sect. So, the Xyro sect honored his final wish. He also realized why Zyro lie said that this had nothing to do with them. Select the most talented candidate to take back to the Xyro sect to cultivate. There was no way this most talented candidate any relation with Xyrochi. However, it was obvious that the inner thoughts of the other elders after hearing this news should be surging greatly to be taken back to the Xyro sect to cultivate. What kind of idea was that? If any of their sons or grandsons were picked and taken back to the Xyro sect, then it would be like an earthworm rising from the mud to become a golden dragon floating between the clouds overnight. All of their relatives would take take flight behind them. They would be able to arrogantly walk without fear of consequence, not only among the Xyro clan, but among all of Floating Cloud City. Anyone who dares to disagree, if told Zyro sect those two words, even the city governor wouldn't dare to talk back. TL literally means wouldn't dare to fart half a fart. This obviously doesn't translate well. Xoli's expression looked to be truly peaceful, but the disappointment that was hidden with great effort still couldn't escape Xioi's eyes. Within the Xyro clan, there wasn't anyone who didn't have the desire to go to the Xyro sect. Even the hymn of today was like this. And with the Xyro sect coming there, this was no doubt the best opportunity to get close to them because now was when they can directly interact with the Xyroex people. The other Zyro clan members all possess that sliver of hope. Only Zyro lie did not even dare to hope because there's no way that Xyrochi would be the person that the Xyro sect would pick. Zyrochi opened his mouth to say something to comfort his grandfather, but after mulling for a long time, he couldn't think of a single word to say. His profound veins condition was clearly wellknown. Even if he said something pleasing to the ears, what was the use? Even though this does not have anything to do with us, that can also be a good thing. The Xyro sect is as large as the sky. Even if we did go there, we'd be among the lowest rank people. How can it compare to freely and peacefully being on top in Floating Cloud City? Xoli easily laughed, sitting at the dining table. Come help your grandfather finish breakfast. After coming out of Xoli's courtyard, Xioi immediately realized that the entire XO clan's atmosphere had distinctively changed. Normally, at this time, there would be quite a few people doing their morning training. However, now, as far as the eye can see, there were only scattered shadows, most of them moving with hurried footsteps and faces full of excitement. It looks like everyone thinks they can climb onto the high branch that is the Xyro sect. But is leaping to the heavens in one step really a good thing? No one is thinking about what would happen if they truly did enter the Xyro sect. I'd guess that they'd just be the lowliest of messengers. Xioi said cynically. Jealous? Ziaingu expressionlessly asked. Definitely not. As soon as he said that, Xioi realized that the Xiaingu by his side was a disciple of the frozen cloud Asgard and in no way inferior to the XO sect. He only curled his lips and said, "You aren't the same as them. Forget it. Pretend like I didn't say anything. Zia Kingu no longer minded him and stepped forward. Although it was a really slow step, her body still moved seven or eight body widths away. Another step, and she was even further from Xioi, leaving him behind. Xiochi's footsteps stopped, entirely focusing on this gracefully stepping phantom like Zia Kingu. He muttered, "Don't tell me this is the legendary frozen cloud asgards frozen snow dance steps. This woman's profound strength was not that simple. It should not merely be at the elementary profound realm's 10th level. Yo, if it isn't brother X-Qi, a voice called from the right. Xyrochi turned his head and saw Xyro Yang walking towards him. This Xyro Yang normally had his nose pointing at the sky in front of him and treated him with complete disdain. For him to voluntarily greet him was definitely an unusual first time. Brother Xio Yang, you're up early. Xioi turned towards him and greeted good-naturedly. What a coincidence. I was just about to go look for you, but who knew that I'd run into you here. Xioang walked over while laughing. Brother Xio Yang needed to find me for something. Xioi asked, his face full of astonishment. Mm. Xio Yang nodded. It's actually big brother Yulong who had me come call you. He said that you're the youngest among us, but the first to get married. As your fellow clan mate, he wanted to hold a little celebration for you no matter what. Plus, there were too many people at the wedding yesterday, so it was hard to enjoy the wine. It's best to drink a little and eat a little this morning. How about it? Do you have time? Inviting him to drink this early in the morning. It turns out that Xio Yulong<unk>'s patience was really only just average. Xio sneered in his heart. He was perfectly aware of the reason why Xio Yulong came to find him. At that moment, his face revealed an overwhelmed expression, and he emotionally replied, "Is it really Brother Yulong calling for me? Of course. Of course, there's time. Since it's Brother Yulong calling for me, how could I not have time? Then do we go now?" Xio-chi expression caused Xio Yang to secretly sneer in disdain. He nodded, "Of course, let's go." Xio Yulong<unk>s courtyard was bigger than Xio by about four or five times. Not only was it overwhelmingly luxurious, but it also had a dedicated serving girl. Slightly north of the courtyard center sat a square pavilion. The table inside was ladened with food and wine. Xio Yulong raised a wine cup with a warm smile on his face. Little brother Xioi, you married our floating cloud city's number one jewel. Once again, I congratulate you. As your big brother, I'll have to try harder from now on. Thank you, brother Yulong. Xioi also hurried raised his wine cup, his face red from excitement. Actually, regarding that, my marriage is not a big deal at all. Really, if should be me congratulating brother Yulong. Oh, Xio Yulong<unk>s face revealed his suspicion. He asked with a smile, congratulating me. I don't understand, Xioi replied with a serious face. It can't be that brother Yulong doesn't know about the group coming from the Xyro sect whom will select one of the most talented youth to take back with them in this generation of our XO clan as far as talent, position, looks, and character who could compare with Brother Yulong. So this time, Brother Yulong will definitely be the one taken back to the XO sect. It's an enormously happy event, right? That's right. Brother Yulong will definitely be selected to go to the Xyro sect this time. With big brother here, other people shouldn't even think about it. Xio Yang also promptly said his aptitude within the Xyro clan was only middling high on this matter. Knowing his chances, he didn't dare to have any ideas. The person with the best chance in the Xyro clan was none other than Zyro Yulong. Since he had spent the last few years following Xyro Yulong around, if Zyro Yulong enters the Xyro sect, it could only benefit him. He began to feel that these few years spent fawning on Xio Yulong was indeed the right decision. Wearing a modest expression, Xio Yulong shook his head. You guys praise me too much. Our XO clan has many outstanding brothers and sisters. While I can be considered the best as far as profound strength goes when it comes down to my qualification, I can't say for certain, but I will try my best for this. Come, brother Xioi, a toast to yesterday's happiness. While his words were very carefree, hidden in the depths of Xio Yulong<unk>s eyes was a glowing fanaticism greater than anyone else's. After downing a cup of wine, Xiochi's face flushed. At this time, Xio Yang drew his face close and asked with a face full of smiles. Brother Xyro Chi, the woman you married yesterday, is truly the most beautiful woman in our floating cloud city. Your luck with women is the envy of all of us brothers. The taste from the bridal chamber last night. He must be equally pleasurable, right? Xio Yulong raised his wine cup, a smiling expression on his face, but his gaze was dead set on Xio's face and eyes, prepared to see what expression he would reveal. However, as soon as Xyroyang finished his question, Xyrochi's eyes glowed brightly, his face revealing a want and smile understandable by all men. He leaned his head closer to Xyro Yang and lowered his voice, smiling. Absolutely. He he brother Xyro Yang, I'll let you know all women are the same. Zia Kingu normally looks like a proud peacock, but in bed she's an absolute Ah, her moaning her flavor definitely was pleasurable. He he narrowed his eyes as he talked. His entire face red with intoxication. Ping. The wine cup in Xyro Yulong<unk>s hand was crushed into pieces, scattering all over the table. Hey, brother Yulong. What's wrong? Xiochi quickly stood up with an alarmed look. Xyro Yulong revealed a completely stiff and ugly smile as he shook off the pieces of the broken wine cup from his hand. It's nothing. I wasn't careful and lost control of my strength. Xio Yang<unk>s expression wasn't better than Xio Yulong<unk>'s by much. He looked like someone who had just eaten a dead insect. After hearing Xio Yulong<unk>s words, he quickly interrupted. I know it's definitely because Big Brother had another breakthrough in his profound strength. Right after you make a breakthrough, the growth of the profound strength will cause it to occasionally go out of control. Then it's like that, Xioi seemed to have suddenly realized, then quickly said, Big Brother Yulong unexpected had another breakthrough. Congratulations. I heard that brother Yulong advanced to the third level of the nent profound realm 3 months ago. It's only been 3 months and you actually had another breakthrough. It's not for nothing that you're the ace of our generation. It seems like besides brother Yulong, there's no one else that the Xio sect could pick. Xou Yulong<unk>'s face twitched. He stood up strongly, suppressing his heart's turmoil, and spoke with a forced smile. Brother Xio Chi is flattering me, but it's true that I just had a breakthrough and that my profound strength is a bit unstable. I must immediately stabilize it and can no longer continue to entertain you. No problem. No problem, Zia. Ochi quickly waved his hand, nodding with understanding. Of course, brother Yulong, stabilizing his profound strength is more important. Then I won't continue to bother Brother Yulong. Thanks you for today's invitation and hospitality. After a few days, when brother Yulong is selected by the Xio sect, I'll definitely be the first to congratulate you. After saying that, Xioi very politely left. Xio Yang also pretended to leave with him, but after Xioi was far away, he quickly turned around and rushed back. As soon as he entered the door, he could see Xio Yulong<unk>s gloomy and frightening expression. Big brother about this thing. Seeing Xio Yulong<unk>s expression, Xio Yang fiercely swallowed a mouth full of saliva and approached with trepidation. Xio Yulong let out a bellow of rage as if he was insane. He swept all of the wine and tea cups off of the table. After everything broke into pieces, he gave a ferocious kick, knocking over the stone table. His hands were clenched tight, his breath heavy with panting, and his eyes burned with flames of jealousy and hatred. A incomparably low voice escaped from his mouth. "Didn't you tell me, Zia Kingu, would never let Xyrochi, that waste of a person, touch her?" Xio Yulong very rarely went out of control. His current state caused Xyro Yang<unk>s scalp to go numb and his back cold. He said in a panic, "It must be, it must be Xyrochi, that fellow making things up. Making things up. Zia Kingu couldn't possibly have fallen for that fellow. Xio Yulong said with a low roar. Is there anything about that piece of waste, Xyrochi, that I don't know? You think he can lie to my face? What kind of person do you think I am? Xyro Yulong had a considerable amount of shrewdness and vision. He has known Xyrochi for 16 years and believed that he knew him like the back of his own hand. He firmly believed that when it comes to this lacking profound strength, cowardly and self-abased person, no change of his mood could escape from his eyes. When Xio Yang had asked him that question just now, whether it was the look in his eyes, his expression, or his subconscious behavior, none of them had any signs of guile, Ziaingu was the woman that he has vowed to definitely obtain. One reason why he allowed them to marry was because he was helpless to stop it. The other was that he was convinced that even if Zia Kingu married Ziai, she would never give herself to him wholly. Instead, it would make things more convenient for himself. But he had never thought that on the second day of getting married, the result would be that Zia Kingu had already been sampled by Xio Chi. The anger in his heart right now, along with his jealousy and resentment, was almost enough to cause his chest to burst. Xio Yang stood there with his neck shrunk back, not daring to even breath loudly. In the past, Xyro Yulong was slated to become the next clan master. He was always very loyal in front of him. Now that Xyro Yulong was most likely going to be a member of the Xyro sect, he even more so didn't dare to oppose him. After a long while, Xyro Yulong was still panting heavily. It was obvious how large of a blow this was to him. He suddenly said in a deep voice, "Where did Xyrochi go after leaving this place?" He went went to the east courtyard. "He might might be going to the kitchen area." Xio Yan replied with great care. Xio Yulong angled his eyebrows, a dark cloud hanging over his features. He muttered under his breath. I always thought that Zia Kingu had an exceptionally gorgeous complexion and talent, and also a dignity and aloofness that other women couldn't compare to. I didn't expect that even the most despised of the XO clan members could catch her interest. Xio Yulong let out a cold snort and with a fierce shake of his arms walked towards the courtyard's exterior. Just as Xio Yang was about to catch up, he suddenly realized where he wanted to go and immediately stopped obediently. Afterwards, he slowly wiped the cold sweat off of his forehead. Xioi left Xio Yulong<unk>s courtyard and walked towards the kitchen at a normal gate to pick up some breakfast. Afterwards, he leisurely walked towards Xio Lynxy's courtyard. If anyone got close, they would be able to hear him talking to himself. Xyro Yulong should be hurrying over to my place, right? Oh, I wonder if my wife Kingu will break his leg or both legs. H or three legs. T L third leg is his D. He reached Xio Lynxy's courtyard, but the door was securely closed. Xioi knocked on the door. Little aunt, I brought a light breakfast. The door opened and Xioi walked in, shutting the door shut with a bang. XLY was sprawled on the table, her hands resting below her chin and her eyelids drooping, a thoroughly weak and dispirited appearance. Xioi placed the light breakfast on the table, then waved his hand in front of her face a few times. Didn't sleep well last night. Un. Upon hearing Xioi mentioned last night, Xio Lynxy let out a low whimpering noise and buried her entire face in her palms. You can still talk about last night. Zia Kingu came to deliver a blanket. She must have seen everything. What to do? What to do? I'm too ashamed to see anyone sobb. It's not that bad, is it? Xioi rubbed his forehead, then sat at her side. He said with a smile, "Rest easy. You're my little aunt. What's wrong with us sleeping while snuggling together? It's exactly because I'm your little aunt." Xio Linkxy shook her head as if she was being driven mad. Also, all of last night, your hand was on my my sob. She must have seen everything. What should I do if she tells someone what should I do? Relax. She definitely won't tell anyone else. Besides, you're my little aunt. What's the big deal if when going to sleep I accidentally touched your breast? Xioi very calmly stated. You You You aren't allowed to talk anymore. Xio Linkxy shook her head even harder, her entire cheek blushing. The reason why she acted that way last night must have been because they were alone in the dark, and her heart was in a state of confusion. Thinking back now, she even more so believed that she must have been insane at that time. I'm 100% sure. Even if she did see, she absolutely won't tell anyone. To begin with, she wouldn't think in that h in the direction that you're thinking of. All right, come quickly eat breakfast or it'll get cold. Xioi comforted her with a light laugh. When thinking about the same thing, a woman's heart was, after all, different from a man's. Oh, Xolini at long last lifted her face from her palms and began to tearily eat the breakfast that Xiochi brought. As Xiochi expected, Xio Yulong headed straight towards his courtyard as soon as he left. As soon as he entered, he spotted Ziaingu currently standing in the center of the courtyard. Ziaingu calmly stood under the pomegranate tree in the center of the courtyard with her arms raised high. Her expression was calm and serious. Clearly, she was quietly cultivating her profound strength. Her long hair naturally spilled over her shoulders, soft and glossy under the morning light. On her lovely face were two black, thin, and curvy eyebrows similar to a pair of crescent moons. Her two tranquil pupils, clear-like crystals, were like the radiance of a flowing dream. Her entire body was covered by a red dress, her faintly discernable curves slim and beautiful, a contrast to the creamy white jade-like skin. This was Xio Yulong<unk>s first time seeing Zia Kingyu<unk>s full peerless magnificence up close and personal like this. In that instant, he was thoroughly stupified on the spot. All of his attention drawn to this exceedingly beautiful scene in front of his eyes. The rest of the world, in a blink of an eye, lost its color. Upon noticing Xyro Yulong<unk>s arrival, Zia Kingyu<unk>s posture didn't change at all. Her eyes continued to gaze ahead while a calm voice left her mouth. Xyrochi is not here. Her voice was cold and indifferent, yet was as sweet and comforting as that of a fairy. Xyro Yulong only then returned to his senses, but there was no way to suppress the stunned and infatuated look in his eyes. He immediately adjusted himself to his best mode and bowed slightly towards Ziaingu, saying with a smile, "Hello, Lady Zia. I am Xyro Yulong, Xyroi's elder brother." Ziaingu was not an excessively cold and hotty person. The other person's mild language and respectful posture and voice caused her to glance at him. Also, it's not as if she hadn't heard of the name Xio Yulong. After all, he is the son of this generation's Xio Clan's clan master. Just as she was glancing at him, preparing to politely respond, she saw the overwhelming infatuation in Xio Yulong<unk>'s eyes and his obscene desires. Immediately, her fine eyebrows twitched. Her trace of goodwill to the previous polite behavior and refined appearance of this man turned into disgust in a flash. Even though Xioi would frequently cause her heart to erupt into anger with his vulgar mouth and uncouthed hands, but at the very least, she never saw any trace of obscene desires in his eyes. But this Xyro Yulong, on the other hand, Ziaingu<unk>s dull voice suddenly contained a hint of coldness. Her words became even more to the point. Xyrochi is not here. In the face of Zia King<unk>s clear coldness, Xyro Yulong seemed to be in disbelief. He nodded his head, saying, "That's really too bad. However, I've heard many good things about Lady Zeia. To be able to see Lady Zia makes this trip worth it." As he spoke, Xio Yulong<unk>s movements, facial expression, look, and voice all changed to the most perfect state, showing off his own charm. He was confident that he was thousands of times stronger than Xioi. If Zia Kingu can fall for even Xio Chi, how could she resist him once he puts forward the effort? I'm currently cultivating. Forgive me for not being able to receive visitors. Zia King<unk>s eyes were tranquil, but her voice already carrying a tinge of annoyance. A truly beautiful woman would warm the heart and delight the eyes regardless of their posture or expression. Seeing the seemingly fairy turned to human Zia Kingu, Xio Yulong<unk>s eyes grew more and more passionate. The jealousy in his heart also burned hotter and hotter. This kind of fairy among humans actually became that waste Xyrochi's wife, but had also been seized by a pig. It was simply a complete waste, something he could not accept nor forgive. Upon hearing that Lady Zia had just turned 16 this year, but had already cultivated to the 10th level of the elementary profound realm, Yulong has always admired you and been fascinated without end. I believe that when Lady Zia reaches my age, you'll definitely be considerably stronger than me. Xyro Yulong moderated his mood, his face gentle as he spoke. However, even though there's only one level between the 10th level of the elementary profound realm and the first level of the nent profound realm, but without a path, it is still quite hard to cross that gap. Though I dare not compare my talent with that of Lady Zia, with my experience, I still have quite a bit of insight towards breaking past the elementary profound realm. How about I exchange pointers with Lady Zia for a bit? As he finished speaking, Xio Yulong walked forward with a smiling expression, his hands gathering his profound strength before reaching for Ziaingu<unk>s snowy hand. Ziaingu may be astonishingly talented, but she was still only in the elementary profound realm. Xyro Yulong was already at the third level of the nent profound realm and so definitely had the qualifications to teach Zia Kingu. At least that's what he believed. Seeing that Xyro Yulong not only had obscene desires in his eyes, but had also moved his hands, Ziaingu<unk>s beautiful eyes suddenly flashed with a blue light. She abruptly held out a hand, empty-handedly pushing in Xio Yulong<unk>s direction. Seeing that Zia Kingyu<unk>s hand had unexpectedly extended her jade-like hand out of her own will, Xyro Yulong<unk>s eyes revealed a happy expression. He was just about to grab her when he suddenly felt an irresistible force ruthlessly slam into his stomach. With no chance to make a sound, his body flew straight out, flipping in the air once before falling head first onto the ground. At the same time, his two front teeth were knocked free. Xou Yulong standing amongst the Xyo clan was extremely high. If a woman that had married into the XO clan were to receive his sexual harassment, even if she could overpower him, she wouldn't dare harm him. However, what kind of backing did Zia Kingu have? Behind her was Frozen Cloud Asgard. Even if she beat him until he fell flat on his face, even if she asked for his life once her status as a disciple of frozen cloud Asgard came to light, Xio Yunhai wouldn't dare complain, but would rather be forced to apologize with a smiling face. Xiochi was very clear on whether or not Ziaingu<unk>s profound strength was truly at the 10th level of the elementary profound realm. But of course, Xouong had no idea. Ziaingu had gotten truly angry and used at least 70% of her profound strength just now. Looking at the Xio Yulong sprawled on the ground, she retracted her palm and then indifferently said, "It looks like young master Xio isn't that great at exchanging pointers. Please go back." Laying on the ground, Xio Yulong was stupified. He originally believed that with his third level of the naent profound realm's profound strength, taking advantage of Zia Kingu would be as easy as reaching out with his hand. No matter what, he didn't think that upon meeting he would end up on the ground with his entire body bruised and battered without even a chance to react. He stared with wide eyes in shock at the two bloody incizers that had fallen on the ground in front of him. Zyro Yulong immediately picked himself up, his face twitching. He knew how battered and exhausted he looked at the moment. It could be said that with his status as the Xyro clan's young master, he had never in his lifetime been in such a sorry state and also in front of the woman that he admired and longed for the most. However, young master Zo was still young Master Zo. He forcibly swallowed the blood in his mouth, his face revealing a what could be considered warm and elegant smile. Lady Zia's 10th level of the elementary profound realm strength is deserving of its reputation. Just then, I was casually testing and had somewhat underestimated you. Then this time, Lady Zia must pay careful attention. With his two missing front teeth, Xyro Yulong<unk>s words were punctuated by the sound of whistling air. After speaking, he had already raised his hands and mobilized all of his profound strength. He naively believed that the reason he ended up at a disadvantage just now was solely because he carelessly acted. Whereas Zia Kingu had reacted ruthlessly with her entire strength. With his third level of the nent profound realm strength, how could he not handle Zia Kingu<unk>s 10th level of the elementary profound realm? Xio Yulong walked forward. Three steps later, both hands simultaneously shot out, seeking to immediately wrap around Ziaingu<unk>s arm. His actions caused Zia Kingu to loathe him even more. With all her patience exhausted, her right arm abruptly swung out, her red sleeve fluttering along. A gust of profound strength carrying a tinge of icy coldness swept across Xio Yulong<unk>s face. This bit of profound strength didn't carry any trace of the frozen cloud arts, but still wasn't something that Xio Yulong could handle. With a pang sound, Xio Yulong<unk>s right cheek sank downwards and his entire body flew backwards. He spun in the air at least seven or eight times like a top before landing heavily outside the courtyard. Three bloody teeth also were knocked free, two of them stabbing into Xyro Yulong<unk>s face. The exchange of pointers is over. I won't see you out. Zia Kingu didn't even glance at him, her fairylike voice ice cold. Xyro Yulong<unk>s entire right face was a patch of red as if dyed with blood. right now. Even if he was an idiot, he would still understand that his third level of the naent profound realm strength was from the start insufficient in front of Zia Kingu. He held the throbbing part of his right face and gave Zia Kingu a look died with a tinge of terror. Taking in a rough breath, he staggered away without another word. Xio Yulong had reached the infirmary and was about to enter when he saw Xio Chi just then leaving, his left hand hold a medicinal pot and his right a package. Upon seeing Xio Yulong, Xiochi promptly greeted him warmly. Brother Yulong, why did you come here? Aya, Brother Yulong, your face. What? What? What? What happened? Seeing Xioi, Xio Yulong clenched his teeth, let out a cold snort, and immediately rushed into the infirmary. Shortly, the astonished sound of the Xyro clan's chief doctor, Xyogu, could be heard from inside. Young master, who who would be so bold to do this kind of evil thing to you? No harm done. When I was at the rear mountains training, I wasn't careful and fell down. Xio Yulong<unk>s voice was clearly riddled with pain. Of course, he could not admit that his current state was because he was given a lesson while trying to take advantage of Zia Kingu. How is this no harm done? Your cheekbone has been shattered to no small extent. You've lost five teeth and another three have been snapped in half. None of these can be grown back. Xioi had not walked too far away. The voices that floated into his ear sent a cold chill up his spine. This woman, her actions were far too ruthless. The murdering heart powder that had killed him most likely came from Xio Yulong. Originally, Xioi wanted to borrow Ziaingu<unk>s power to give him a little lesson. But how could this be considered a lesson? It was simply beating him half to death. Thinking about how he had used his grandfather as a shield to lead her by the hand early in the morning, Xio Chi couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. When he returned to his own courtyard, Zia Kingu was calmly standing in the courtyard center. Seeing him return, she indifferently spoke. Xio Yulong came over. Ah, yes, I know. I just saw him at the infirmary. Xio Chi carefully took a look at Ziaingu<unk>s expression before prudently responding. Ziaingu no longer paid any attention to him. She lightly closed her eyes and a layer of ice cold air surrounded her body. King, my wife, can I ask you a question? Xioi opened his mouth to ask as he took a step forward. Zia Kingu didn't react in the least. What level is your profound strength really at? To be able to force Xio Yulong into such a sorry state, she should be at least at the fifth level of the nent profound realm. To be at the fifth level of the nent profound realm at the age of 16. If this was revealed, floating Cloud City would truly explode. Zia Kingu still did not react in the least. She didn't seem to have any intention of answering him. The ignored Xioi had a face full of gloom. Looking at Ziaingu<unk>s appearance, she should be silently practicing frozen cloud asgards exclusive profound technique, the frozen cloud arts. He no longer spoke. After placing the things in his hands on the ground, he leaned his body back, crossed his hands over his chest, and leisurely watched the peaceful Zeia Kingu. He watched until a quarter of an hour had passed. Zia Kingu generally stayed in her room in the past while training in the frozen cloud arts. Besides her master, occasionally giving tips to her from the side, the rest of the time she was by herself with absolutely no one else to bother her. Not to mention a man who fixedly watched her with both eyes. Even though she was calmly standing there with her eyes closed, firmly concentrating on her training with the frozen cloud arts circulating through her body, she could still feel Xio standing there watching her. Moreover, it was a constant stare. His gaze hardly ever left her for even a moment. That piercing gaze over and over again swept over every part of her body, giving her no way of completely calming her heart. Her entire body was uncomfortable. After all, she was still only a 16-year-old girl. To expect her heart to truly be like still water was simply asking for too much. After an entire quarter hour, Xiochi was still standing there, his gaze firmly on her. Xio Kingu finally could not restrain herself and opened her beautiful eyes to glance at him coldly saying, "What are you doing always staring at me, waiting for you to voluntarily speak to me?" Xiochi innocently replied. Zia King, you had the urge to kill someone. Cough cough. Actually, I had something really important to talk to you about, but I was afraid of interrupting your training just now, so I had no choice but to wait. Xioi got up, his expression sincere. What is it? Zia Kingyu asked strongly suppressing her anger. Om, it's like this. Xioi's expression became serious. He took a few steps forward until he was standing in front of Zia Kingu, then confidently said, "Early this morning, when I held your hand, uh, DD, don't do anything. I'm talking about serious business. Serious business." Upon seeing Zia Kingu suddenly reveal her killing intent, Xiochi promptly retreated several steps. A wary expression appearing on his face, the miserable state Xio Yulong had just been in provided a bloody lesson. Seeing that Zia Kingu didn't in fact do anything, Xio Chi let out a small sigh of relief and continued. When I held your hand, I felt your pulse in passing and found a big problem. An extremely big problem. His words didn't cause Zia Kingu<unk>s gaze to waver even a bit. She didn't believe him from the start, though she did feel him secretly measuring her pulse when he led her by the hand this morning. How could the man from the Xiao family that all a floating Cloud City knew to be weak know anything about pulses? But Xioi's following words nevertheless caused Zia Kingu to tremble slightly. Isn't it true that you wake up every day at 3:00 in the morning and not only that, but for the next half hour, your entire body would be ice cold and your four limbs sore? Zia King<unk>s gaze wavered unwittingly asking, "How do you know?" Xioi continued to speak. "Also, after training in the floating cloud secret arts, every time your profound strength makes a breakthrough within the next 2 or 3 days, isn't it true that your entire body would be ice cold, your four limbs sore, and you'd be unable to eat or sleep peacefully?" Ziaingu's gaze once again violently shook because what Xioi said was not wrong at all. Also, Xioi's feet moved straight in the direction of the courtyard door. Not until half his body was outside the door did he say with a serious face, "Your last um a period wasn't it late by about 7 or 8 days." Zia Kingu at number percent. Only when he didn't feel any killing intent from Ziaingu did Xioi cautiously walk back from the courtyard door. Do you believe me now? How do you know all of this? Ziaingu<unk>s eyebrows drooped as she asked. From your pulse, you can measure pulses. Would you believe me if I said I am a doctor of miracles? Xioi asked with a sincere face. If you want to joke around, then go find your little aunt. Ziaingu glanced at him without expression. Of course, Xioi didn't expect Ziaingu to believe him. It would be weirder if she actually believed him. These are all very serious symptoms. You don't want to know how to treat them. No need. Ziaingu let out a cold voice. The frozen cloud arts is the frozen cloud asgard's exclusive profound technique, subtle yet inexhaustible. Once you start practicing the frozen cloud arts, your entire body will have a hard time adjusting to the cold and will more or less show some negative side effects. In the frozen cloud asgard, this is common sense that's known to all the disciples. Even master and master's ancestors experienced this. Once the frozen cloud arts have been trained to a certain extent, these negative side effects will disappear completely on their own. Yes, yes, what you said isn't wrong. Xioi nodded with deep consideration, then said with a chuckle. But I also finally have some understanding of why frozen cloud asgard teaches to prohibits emotion and suppresses desires. Because even if the women of Frozen Cloud Asgard had lovers, they still wouldn't be able to have children. If this were to be leaked, it would be very harmful to Frozen Cloud Asgard's prestige. It's better to just to prohibit the disciples of Frozen Cloud Asgard from seeing men and at the same time protect this pretty disgraceful secret. Zeia King's eyebrows suddenly slanted, and her gaze abruptly became cold. For the first time, she was truly angry at Xioi. Shut up. I can tolerate your nonsense, but I won't allow you to insult my school. If you continue with even half a sentence more of that kind of talk, then I won't forgive you. Now, the previously cautious and cowering Xioi had not even a hint of a fearful expression. Instead, he faintly smiled and said leisurely, "Whether or not I was wrong, I know very well. I can also tell you the more powerful the profound strength, the longer the life expectancy. However, from your pulse, I am absolutely certain that the life expectancy of members of your frozen cloud Asgard is one-third less than that of someone else with the same level of profound strength, if not more. Am I right or am I wrong? Xioi's words were like a clap of thunder next to Ziaingu<unk>s ears and caused her two beautiful pupils to contract for an instant. Who did you hear that from? Ziaingu coldly asked, her thoughts startled. At the same level of profound strength, the life expectancy of members of Frozen Cloud Asgard was shorter than other peoples by a large amount. This was the cruel truth. Even within Frozen Cloud Asgard, this was a secret that had always been suppressed by the frozen cloud Asgard's leadership. The reason why Zia Kingu knew about it was because her master had absent-mindedly mentioned it to her after one of her breakthroughs. Furthermore, she told her that this was Frozen Cloud Asgard's biggest flaw and strictly ordered her not to tell anyone, including her fellow disciples. Yet here, Xio Chi had readily said it out loud. If I were the master of the frozen cloud Asgard, I would use all my might to hide this flaw and prevent outsiders from finding out. Do you think I could have possibly heard this from anyone? Xioi said, curling his lips. I really came to this conclusion from measuring your pulse, that's all. From your reaction, it seems that everything I said was right. I don't believe you. Zia Kingu resolutely shook her head. To be able to infer Frozen Cloud Asgard's biggest secret just from a pulse, that's ridiculous. If it was that easy, with the countless number of spirit doctors in Blue Wind Empire, Frozen Cloud Asgard's secret would have been exposed who knows how many years ago. However, everything Xioi had just said went straight to the crux of the matter without any flaws at all. There was no way Ziaingu would not be bewildered. I knew that you won't believe me. Xio Chi picked up the medicinal pot and package from the ground and walked into the house. Follow me. Zia Kingyu<unk>s gaze swept over the items held in his hands. After a bit of hesitation, she followed him into the room and closed the door behind her. After setting down the medicinal pot and package, Xiochi ordered Ziaingu, "Sit down. What do you want to do?" Ziaingu looked at him with suspicion. Obviously, I want to treat you. There's no need. Zia Kingu immediately shook her head. Whether it's necessary or not, it's<unk> best if you wait until afterwards to decide. Hey, you shouldn't be unwilling to even try it, right? Xioi opened the package and took out a silver box. He let out a sigh. A look of frustration and disappointment appeared on his face. I know you basically don't believe anything I say, but at the very least, I don't have the ability nor any reason to hurt you. The reason I retrieved these things from the infirmary early in the morning is only because I wanted to give you treatment. That's all. If it works, then that's good. If not, you still won't lose anything. Since you don't want to believe me and don't want to give it a try, then forget it. Just pretend it's unrequited affection. Xioi's words startled Zia Kingu, and a bit of guilt grew in her heart. It was true that what he said before and what he was saying now were all to help treat her. He didn't request anything from her or raise any conditions. He also, as he said so himself, had no reason or ability to harm her. No matter what the result, to outright reject him was really a bit excessive. Zia Kingu let out a sigh in her heart and then sat down next to Xioi. How are you going to treat me? You're willing to receive treatment. Xioi gave her a look and then turned his face away with a snort. His attitude of a wronged child left Zia Kingu unable to decide whether she should laugh or cry, and her voice relaxed. I want to see how you'll treat me. And now that's more obedient. When Xioi turned his face back, his expression was all smiles. This caused Zia Kingu to stare distractedly at him. This guy's mood swings were really too quick. Extend your hand. Xioi sat in front of Ziaingu. Ziaingu also accordingly extended both arms, resting them horizontally on the table. Her red sleeves pushed up to her elbows, exposing a pair of creamy snow white arms. Xio Chi opened the silver box. Surprisingly, arranged inside were several tens of thread thin silver needles. Silver needles? Don't tell me you are going to use acupuncture. Ziaingu's moonlike brows raised. Hey, you actually know acupuncture. Xioi gave her a somewhat surprised look. Back on Blue Cloud continent, there weren't even 10 people that could perform acupuncture, even if he and his medical saint master were included. However, on profound sky continent, this apparently was among one of the more popular medical treatments. It was even possible to find a set of acupuncture tools in the Xyro clan's infirmary. Of course, I know. I also know that to be skilled in acupuncture techniques requires a lot of time. You need tens of years to have even a little bit of success. I've never heard that you were studying medical techniques, not to mention acupuncture. Also, your room doesn't have the smell or mark of traditional medicine. What exactly are you going to do? Ziaingu<unk>s eyes all along were wary and suspicious. Xyrochi took out a silver needle, gripping its base with two fingers. When Xyrochi picked up the silver needle, Xyro Kingu's gaze became slightly distracted. That was because in Xioi's hands, that silver needle had a kind of indescribably feeling of harmony, as if it had been naturally grown from Xioi's hands. This feeling was very subtle and indescribable, yet it clearly and truly existed. Xio Chi opened a small bottle and carefully dipped the silver needle inside. Whether or not I know how to perform acupuncture, you'll immediately find out. Of course, if you feel that there's something wrong or feel that I'm playing around, you can have me stop whenever you want. What's inside that bottle? Ziaingu<unk>s gaze fell upon that small bottle. Ordinary juice from the scarlet sunflower. Xioi responded without thinking, his gaze falling upon Zia Kingu<unk>s snowy arms. The left hand holding the silver needle flickered slightly. Xioi's movement was exceedingly fast. So fast that Zia Kingu couldn't react. When Xyroi's left hand withdrew, the silver needle between his fingers could no longer be seen. Instead, on her right wrist, a silver needle was inserted vertically, accurately landing on the Yang Kai acupuncture point. There was no pain. It could be better described as no feeling at all. If it weren't for the fact that she was staring blankly at this silver needle, she wouldn't have known that there was a silver needle piercing her wrist at all. Ziaingu was moved so quick. No, this was quick, but rather skillful. A kind of skill that had reached an astonishing level to the point where it could be said to be at its peak. The second silver needle was picked up by Xio Chi and dipped in the scarlet sunflower juice. As he leaned towards Ziaing Yu<unk>s right wrist, his wrist shook slightly and the second silver needle accurately pierced the Yang Guu acupuncture point. The third and fourth needle were pierced into the Jang Zhu and Higu points respectively. After the right hand, another four silver needles pierced the left hands Yang Kai, Yang Guu, Zang Zhu, and Higu four points. Each time, his movements were so quick that Zia Kingu could only see a faint shadow pass by. The astonishment in her heart also accordingly rose with each silver needles pierce. T L Ross said her astonishment overlapped with the needles or something. She didn't know if Xio's treatment would have any effect. But Zia Kingu fundamentally couldn't believe that this technique skillful to the point of bewitchment was performed by a 16-year-old boy. Relax your hands and breathe steadily. Under no circumstances are you to use profound strength. Xioi's voice echoed next to her ear. She cooperated with him. Her hands loosened and her breath calmed. At this moment, she suddenly felt ice cold air condense within both hands. Then, as if finding a drain, it quickly rushing towards the four Yang Kai, Yang Guu, Jeang Zhu, and Higu points that had been pierced by silver needles. Suddenly, wisps of white mist slowly rose above the eight silver needles. The cold air stored within quickly lowering the surrounding temperature. Upon feeling the cold air fleeing from her meridians and the quickly rising white fog, Ziaingu's snowy face violently twitched. It took a few minutes for the white fog to completely stop rising. At this time, Xyrochi suddenly reached out and flicked both his hands, his fingers moving like a mirage. In a split second, all eight of the silver needles that had been pierced into Zia King<unk>s hands had been returned into his and then placed in a different case. This cold air was even heavier than I thought. It's<unk> good that you met me. Xrochi muttered in a small voice, then closed the silver needle case and said, "King, you my wife, how do your hands feel now?" Zia Kingu raised both of her hands, her eyes wavering. Light, cozy, warm. That was how her hands felt right now, as if she was suddenly freed from some kind of heavy restraint. It was the first time since she started cultivating the frozen cloud sacred arts that she had felt this kind of warmth in her palm and arms. She lifted her eyes to look at Xio Chi, asking in astonishment, "What exactly is this?" "It's actually really simple. I just released the cold air inside your hands and the meridians in your hands. At the same time, I unblock the clogged meridians. That's all." Xiochi humbly said, "Your frozen cloud Asgard's profound technique can allow profoundqi to become ice cold and thus greatly increase your power. The reason the ice cold profoundq chi is more powerful is because cold air is very harmful to people. Your enemies are people. But you are also a person. Before harming someone else, you inevitably harm yourself first. This is a very obvious principle. This morning when I touched your palm, I found that your palm's temperature was much colder than that of a normal person. Perhaps the members of your frozen cloud asgard really believe that this is the expected result of cultivating the frozen cloud arts. But from a medical standpoint, it would be weird if this kind of body temperature was considered normal. Normally, when you don't use your profound strength, the profound strength collects in your profound veins and won't influence your body. However, as soon as it's used, the frozen cloud profound chi links with your entire body, injuring it when it's released. When it's circulating, it will also harm you. You should not have been cultivating the frozen cloud arts for more than a few years, but a large amount of cold air has already permeated your five viscera, six bowels, blood, bone marrow, and dansin, and it is still accumulating. Over time, it will continually cause severe harm to your internal organs. It would be strange if it didn't shorten your life. These negative effects really are things you would never come across normally. TL Pl. Google these medical things yourself. Zia Kingu. In addition, under the cold air, the body's many meridians will frequently spasm and then close up, greatly affecting your ability to use profoundqi. You can try to transfer profound strength to your hands and see how it compares to before. Xioi spoke with a stern face. Xioi's confident opinion was stated reasonably from start to finish and was presented with cause and effect. Not only that, but the reasoning was so easy to understand that even an idiot listening could understand. Once Xioi's earnest reactions were added, it was basically impossible to question or refute him. As Xiochi was speaking with that stern face, his heart was actually grimacing. Because while everything that he had just said was actually true, but it was both true and yet also nonsense. That cold air amassing within would harm the body was true. The fact that it would close the meridians was also true. But if the frozen cloud arts were as unbearable as he stated, how would frozen cloud Asgard be worth anything? Not to mention being at the peak of the Blue Wind Empire, it wouldn't even be able to last another 800 years. After cultivating the frozen cloud arts for a while, the body will have completely gotten used to it. Then the cold air in the body, while it used to be harmful, would not only stop harming them, but also provide assistance. The congested meridians would also naturally clear. However, Ziaingu has only been cultivating the frozen cloud arts for 3 or 4 years. She naturally couldn't be at the completely adapted phase. With his words combining with her own experiences up to now, in addition to the feeling after the treatment, Xioi's argument sounded fundamentally flawless to her. Treatment was only an excuse. The frozen cloud arts flaw was also only an excuse. What he wanted to accomplish only he knew. After hearing Xioi's words, Ziaingu tried to concentrate her profound strength into her hands. Immediately, her heart once again skipped a beat. That was because compared to before, the profound strength flowing into her hands was unobstructed by a large margin. Its speed was also faster by 20 or 30%. Seeing Ziaingu's reaction, Xiochi nodded in satisfaction. Don't you feel that it's much less congested and faster than before? If we release the rest of the cold air in your body and clear your meridians, you'll have the same body temperature as a normal person's when not practicing the frozen cloud arts. None of the negative side effects will manifest and the speed at which you can use your profound strength will increase by at least half. Not only that, from now on, the speed at which you cultivate the frozen cloud arts will increase by at least 30%. Oh, I'm only just casually speaking. If you just listened casually too, then that would be fine because you would never allow me to do these things. As Zrochi spoke, he already started cleaning up the things that he had brought from the infirmary. Did you just say that the speed at which I cultivate the frozen cloud arts will increase by 30%. Ziaingu suddenly turned her head. Xioi's statement absolutely shocked her. So much so that she wanted to believe him, yet couldn't bring herself to do so. A pill that would allow a person to for one or two years advance 10 or 20% faster would be without contest classified as a rare treasure. So much that it would cause a huge scramble that would give rise to a battlefield drenched in bloody rain. Yet the meaning of Xio's words was actually a permanent increase of 30%. This sentence was far more than astonishing. If there was something or some condition that allowed a person's cultivation speed to permanently increase as much as 30%. Zia Kingu believed without a doubt that all of the world's heroes would flock out to obtain it with all their power. Yes, Xiochi nodded. It's up to you whether you believe me or not. On the contrary, Xyrochi's believe it or not attitude caused Ziaingu to believe in him some more. That coupled with the effects of his treatment that she had personally experienced meant that she was unable to question much when faced with the astonishing things that he humbly said afterwards. This feeling surprised even herself. The huge frozen cloud Ascgard had been in existence on Blue Wind Empire for thousands of years, but had never heard of the existence of a method with this kind of shocking result. In this small floating cloud city, a youth of only 16 years age with a deformed profound vein could unexpectedly could say this confidently and also had her unable to stop herself from faintly believing in him. If it really has the effect that you claim, then why would you say that I wouldn't agree to have you do it? Zia Kingu asked. Well, Xioi lifted the corner of his mouth and dead panned. It's really simple. If you think about it, you'll understand. to extract the cold air from your entire body and clear the meridians. Then you definitely need to have needles all over your body. Since you need to have needles on your body, then of course you'd have to undress. At the very least, you would have to show me your entire back. You won't even let me touch your hand. Are you willing to undress in front of me? Zia Kingu. All right, the silver needles have been used. I should take these back to the infirmary. Xioi gave Zia Kingu a faint smile. No need to thank me. After all, you are my wife. Yesterday in the dead of night, you ran out to bring me a blanket, so whatever I do for you is only to be expected." Watching Xioi's back as he packed everything, Zia Kingyu<unk>s expression continuously changed. Finally, she once again voluntarily spoke. I've always known about the accumulation of cold air in my body. I also know that the early stages of the frozen cloud arts will congest my meridians. If scattering the cold air and clearing the meridians really can relieve the body's discomfort and will also definitely improve the use of profound strength, what does it have to do with increasing the speed at which I cultivate profound strength? This touches on very complex medical knowledge and very complex so I don't really want to talk about it. Also, I bet that even if I did explain, you wouldn't be able to understand. Xioi vaguely replied, his forehead almost breaking out into cold sweat. He originally believed that the earlier words coupled with the acupuncture treatment had already succeeded in convincing Zia Kingu. He didn't expect that she would suspiciously ask about it and straight about the crux of the matter to boot. That was because there wasn't the slightest bit of relationship between the speed of cultivation and the cold air and meridians. Fortunately, Ziaingu didn't continue her line of questioning. Right when Xio Chi finished wrapping everything up, she spoke again. These things, where did you learn them from? From your acupuncture technique just now, you definitely have the qualifications to join those huge medical schools. If you really have the ability to do what you just said, then not to mention this small floating cloud city, all of Blue Wind Empire would know your name. How could you remain unknown and instead have this reputation as a Join those medical schools. Xioi curled his lips in disdain. He then turned around and serenely stated, "These things were all taught to me by my master." "Your master?" Xio-King<unk>s moonlike brows twitched. She had never heard of Xiochi having any kind of master. My master was a great medical saint. His entire life was spent using his knowledge to help people, and he saved countless dying and injured people. I met him when I was very young. He taught me the four ways of medical diagnosis, how to use the needle, and the principles of pharmarmacology and toxicology. He taught me that under heaven there was a countless number of medicines and poisons, pests and herbs. I am his only successor. His kindness to me was as heavy as a mountain, impossible to repay in this lifetime. That is why I know some medical techniques. As for the rest, you shouldn't ask too much. Also, don't tell any outsiders that I practice medicine. Even my grandfather and little aunt are unaware. Aside from myself, you're the only other person who knows. T L Four ways of medical diagnosis equals look, smell, ask, and cut. As he thought about his dead master, Zyroi could not stop his face from showing a sad and nostalgic expression. This was his most sincere emotion without a shred of falsehood or artifice. This sincere emotion also affected Ziaingu who with complete conviction in Xiochi's words gently said, "For you to be this young and yet have such shocking skill in acupuncture, it seems that your master definitely is a great doctor. He was the world's greatest doctor without peer." Xiochi firmly said. Xiochi's appearance caused Zia King<unk>s inner doubt to unconsciously lessen by a bit. After hesitating for a bit, she finally made her up mind. Then you are sure that what you said about letting me permanently cultivate 30% faster is true. Since I said it, then I wouldn't disgrace my master's name as a doctor, and you wouldn't be thinking about trying it. Xioi turned around and looked at her with a face full of astonishment. Zia Kingu let out a small sigh of relief, glancing over. You're sure you only need to see the back. Xioi's eyes lit up and his face moved closer. He smilingly said, "If you really want to show everything, then that's okay, too." Zia Kingyu<unk>s eyebrows drooped and her red sleeves unfurled. A sudden gust of cold wind assaulted Xiochi's entire body, causing him to shiver. She walked towards the bed, faintly, saying, "Let's start. Let me see if your medical techniques are as miraculous as you say. However, if you get any ideas, I definitely won't forgive you." Xiochi gave a wy smile. You could kill me with a slap. Even if I had ideas, I wouldn't dare try. The box of silver needles and jar of crimson sunflower juice that had just been put away were once again brought out. Afterwards, he walked to the bedside and said with a solemn face to the zeia kingu already sitting on top the bed, "Undress!" It was a pure word, but when shouted by Xioi, it gave an impression of an evil tyrant forcing himself upon an innocent woman. When thinking about this, the inner heart of even the incorruptible and worldde defiant pure lotus that was Zia Kingu upon hearing this word had some kind of reaction. However, the temptation of a permanent 30% increase to her cultivation speed was too much to bear. So much that it's safe to say that no profound practitioners would be able to resist. This was because if it really succeeded, it's the same as saying that with the same talent and comprehension, the same profound arts and profound skills and the same environment and resources, the advancement from cultivating 3 years would be equivalent to the opposition's cultivation of 4 years. After a century, you would exceed the opposition's advancement by 30 years. Xioi also was certain that even though Zia Kingu had to undress, she still wouldn't refuse. That was because Zia Kingu clearly was girl seeking to climb to higher heights of profound strength. If not, she wouldn't have joined frozen cloud asgard without care about the consequences of abstaining from both emotion and passion. If everything were to happen as he said, then this kind of price would be absolutely worth it to say nothing of the fact that it was only the back. Zeia Kingu thought of it like this and turned her back to Xioi. She gently laid down on her stomach, her heart as still as a mirror. She closed her eyes and unbuttoned her dress. Her crimson dress slowly slid along the lines of her fragrant shoulders and jade-like arms. The dazzling white back of a beautiful girl without a stitch to cover it appeared in front of Xio's eyes. She pulled over the quilt, holding it at her bosom. The red dress continued to slide down, revealing an ample and alluring bottom, exposing the liquid curve of her jade-like back. Her back was slender, yet not scrawny, clear, and lustrous without peer. The skin of her neck and shoulder were flawlessly soft and seemingly pink, as if it had been lubricated. Xio Cheese wrapped gaze widened as if he was in a trance. "Start immediately. You're not allowed to have any other ideas," Ziaingu closed her eyes, her voice cold. "Isn't a woman<unk>'s body supposed to be seen by her husband?" Xioi carefully muttered, then closed his mouth and picked up a silver needle. The moment the needle was in his hand, his expression became heavy with concentration. As Zia Kingu felt the steadying of Xioi's breath behind her, she swallowed her retort and no longer spoke, lightly closing her eyes. Although even now, she still couldn't quite believe that what Xioi said was the truth. But she couldn't resist the temptation of a 30% increase to her cultivation speed, no matter how small of a chance it was. The sound of wind could be heard accompanying the sway of Xyrochi's wrists. a silver needle lightly and accurately pierced the Tanzhong acupuncture point on Ziaingu<unk>s jade-like back. His finger didn't touch her skin at all. Xioi began to move his fingers as if they were flying. The silver needles were picked up by him one by one, rapidly and accurately piercing Zia King's back. It was almost to the point where all that could be seen was a swaying shadow. Zia Kingu closed her eyes, all of her attention on her back. She began to notice that every time a silver needle pierced into her back, there was always a trace of profound strength accompanying it. This discovery immediately caused Zia Kingyu<unk>s heart to skip a beat. She was perfectly clear about the condition of Xioi's body. With his deformed profound veins, he could only stop at the first level of the elementary profound realm. The only profound chi that he could use was the most basic and smallest kind. However, as each needle was inserted into her back, even though the accompanying profound chi was minute, it was still at the upper limit for the first level of the elementary profound realm. She did not know why Xioi needed to add profound strength to the needles. However, this clearly meant that with every needle, he was using all of his strength. She didn't notice for the first eight needles because they were placed so quickly and her concentration was all on Xio's technique. This awareness made it momentarily impossible to calm the waves in her heart. At this point, her back had been had been pierced by 23 needles. Xioi's speed also noticeably decreased. If Zia Kingu had looked back at this moment, she would have seen that his entire face was faintly red and his brow was beated with sweat. For the first 20 or so needles, Xio's handling was very effortless. However, when sweat started to appear on his forehead, the left hand holding the needle also started to tremble. In addition, his movements clearly slowed by quite a bit. Before he could pierce one needle in the space of a breath, but then it gradually turned into several breaths after 30 needles. It took longer and longer each time. If Ziaingu looked back, she would notice that while Xyroi was giving acupuncture treatment, he always used his left hand. He wasn't left-handed at all. And it's even less true that his left hand was more skilled. Rather, it was because the sky poison pearl was contained in his left hand. Whenever a silver needle pierced down, the sky poison pearl in his palm would lightly flicker once. Following the silver needles, the sky poison pearls power silently entered Ziaingu<unk>s body. Of course, this power wasn't some kind of poison, but rather was a purifying force. The sky poison pearl had the ability to purify the world's tens of thousands of poisons. In addition, this poison didn't necessarily have to be a life-ending kind of poison, but also included poisons that damaged the body's interior, as well as superfluous impurities. However, this wasn't necessarily as simple as washing the marrow and cutting the artery. to use the power of the sky poison pearl was the main reason that he racked his brains today figuring out how to give Zeia Kingu acupuncture treatment to disperse the cold air and clear the meridians were only side effects and pretenses. What he was really doing was opening the profound for Zeia Kingu. 1 minute passed, 10 minutes passed, a quarter of an hour passed, wisps of cold air slowly rose from each and every silver needle. After a full half an hour had passed, Zia Kingu<unk>s back had been pierced by a full 54 needles. Xioi's hands finally stopped moving at this point. But after stopping for not even half a minute, he once again reached out, both hands dancing. He removed each and every needle from Ziaingu<unk>s back with incomparable swiftness. In the blink of an eye, all of the 54 needles had vanished from Ziaingu<unk>s back. Ziaingu<unk>s jade back was still luminously snow white, like the purest of white jade. Under Xiochi's extremely skilled technique, not a single mark was left. It's done. Xioi, having recovered all the needles, breath a long sigh of relief. The moment all the silver needles were removed, Zia Kingu felt as if she were floating through heaven, her entire body indescribably warm and cozy. It made it hard for her to believe through her stuper that this was indeed her own body. She threw her clothes back on and immediately used her profound strength. As the frozen cloud arts rushed forth, she almost jumped in fright because her profound strength transferred practically the moment the thought crossed her mind. The speed at which it circulated within her body was a cause for joy as it was many times faster than it was before. Even after practicing the frozen cloud arts for 4 years, she still frequently had moments when she couldn't completely control it. However, now feeling the frozen cloud arts circulating through her body, she was completely certain that with her body in its current state, she could completely control it. The speed at which the frozen cloud arts circulated also as a natural result improved by a tear. She did not have many hopes to begin with, so she was pleasantly surprised from the bottom of her heart at this kind of result. At the same time, she was also overwhelmingly shocked. shocked that everything that Xioqi had spoken of had in fact been achieved. Furthermore, the results were even better than he said they would be. She believed that her current body state would even startle her own master if she were to see it. "Now, do you believe me?" Xiochi's voice echoed next to her ear, but seemed to be especially horsearo and weak. Ziaingu returned to her senses and looked towards Xioi. He was powerlessly leaning against the headboard. His forehead and all of his clothing had already been soaked in sweat, and his complexion was pale enough to frighten, like he had just survived a severe illness. Thinking about how every needle had been accompanied by profound strength, an aching feeling suddenly appeared in her heart. A feeling similar to being pricricked. This feeling threw her mind into disorder because she shouldn't have any feelings of heartache for this person that she could only share the status of being married and nothing else with. I believe you. I believe that you really are a spirit doctor. Zia King, you gave him a complex look. It turns out that you, who had been looked down upon by everybody in floating Cloud City, actually had such an shocking ability, but you clearly know that I don't have any kind of affection for you. After one month, I will still forever leave you. Why expose all of this to me? Why grant me such a large favor and try so hard for me? Favor. This was really an incomparably immense favor. Three reasons. The powerless Xiochi panted and was gasping for breath, but still smiled with his entire face. Almost everyone looked down on me, and you had even more reason to look down on me. But you didn't, and instead have always protected my pathetic dignity to the best of your ability last night. You went out to look for me because you were worried and also silently delivered a blanket for me. Everyone who treats me well, I will forever treat them even better. Zia Kingu, the second reason, you are all in all my wife. Zia Kingu opened her mouth a few times but couldn't find the words. The third reason is also the most important reason. The smile on Xio's face turned vague. I thought that your appearance after undressing would be a lovely sight to see. Whenever Xioi took liberties with her using his vulgar mouth, she would always treat him with a cold indifference. However, this time, watching the vulgar smile on his pale face, she couldn't bring herself to be angry. The explanation is over. Xioi extended a hand towards the medicinal pot that he had brought. King you, my wife, go pour out the medicine in that medicinal pot and drink it. Zia Kingu gave him a very deep look, then walked over without asking what kind of medicine it was. She poured the concoction from the pot out and swallowed it in one gulp. This is the first treatment. If you want to keep this current state forever, you need a total of seven treatments. The best time is at 3:00 in the morning because this the one time in the day when the yingchi is the heaviest and result of the treatment the best. Of course, whether we proceed or not, the decision lies with you. After saying all of that, Xyrochi closed his eyes in exhaustion. It definitely wasn't an act. His physical strength had truly been gravely overtaxed. Have a good rest. Ziaingu<unk>s gaze became even more complex. After she quietly spoke, she walked outside and soundlessly closed the door. Standing in the center of the courtyard, Zia Kingu raised her hands and looked at her palms, the expression in her eyes hazy. What kind of person is he really? At the very least, I've always judged him wrongly. All of Floating Cloud City have also judged him wrongly. After Zia Kingu left, Xyrochi's body had also fallen completely and crookedly onto the bed. He rested there, not wanting to move at all, his mouth occasionally uttering a vague mumble. Hoohoo, my current stamina is too poor. I almost collapsed from fatigue just opening the profound. If master knew that I actually had the other person take off her clothes, he might be angry enough to come down from heaven to teach me a lesson. After all, I could practice acupuncture through clothing at the age of 13 and could practice acupuncture through clothing with my eyes closed at 15. Hoohoo to sleep. The entire XYO clan had been immersed in an extremely different atmosphere ever since they received the letter from the XO sect. Clan master elders performed their duties each day with great diligence. From morning to evening, they prepared to greet them for fear of showing the least bit of neglect. The younger generation, as if on steroids, trained even harder. They all dreamed of having a breakthrough in these next few days, thereby increasing the chance of being brought back to the Xyro sect. However, all of this clearly had nothing to do with Xioi. He could be counted as the most leisurely person in the entire Xyro clan. today at the Xio clan's rear mountain. This was the cemetery opened up in the rear mountains by the XO clan. After a member of the Xio clan died, it was more than likely that they would be buried here. Xoli quietly stood in front of a gravestone, his white hair, the result of having been through many changes and sorrow, fluttering freely in the wind. The wind whistled. Everything else was desolate. On this gravestone, the two words Xio Ying were engraved. Yinger, I know that ever since childhood, you dreamed of fulfilling your ancestors hopes and returning to the Xio sect to shake off this abandoned blood of ours. Now this opportunity has finally arrived. It's just an entire 16 years too late. The expression in Xio's eyes was misty. He stiffly stood there, his mouth uttering an involuntary sort of mutter. I know even though so many years have passed that you still have many concerns. Chi's profound veins have been deformed since his childhood. This is also fine. Even though he's destined to be mediocre all his life, but without action there won't be struggle and hatred. Now Chi is already married. I hope from now on he can always live on peacefully. Even though he's not your real child, he is still the one that you two spent your lives and the life of your child to protect. I will also protect his peace to the best of my ability. Snap. A quiet snapping sound entered Xi's ear, startling him. He returned to his senses in a flash and turned his head, shouting in a low voice, who following his shout, Xio Yulong<unk>s figure walked over from behind a thick and solid tree at the center of the courtyard. He looked at Xio lie distractedly, walked forward a few steps and assumed the proper etiquette of a junior. Yulong greets fifth elder. I did not think that fifth elder would even be here. Did Yulong disturb fifth elder? Xoli's eyes revealed his turmoil. His heart was just then filled with sorrow and he was despondent for a time. It was unexpected that he didn't discover someone approached this place. He also didn't know if this Xio Yulong had heard his monologue just now. He furrowed his brows and asked, "Yulong, what are you doing here?" Xio Yulong promptly responded, "Zo sex emissaries will arrive tomorrow. Father believes that this is a large event that will change the Xio clan's fate and believed that he should inform his grandfather. So he had me come to accidentally disturb the fifth elder Yulong made a mistake. Then did you hear what I just said? Xoli's voice became cold and stiff all at once. An imposing aura abruptly pushed against Xouong. The strength of a someone at the peak of the spirit profound realm was more than what Xouong could withstand with his current ability. As his complexion pad, he immediately shook his head. Yulong also just arrived. If fifth elder hadn't just then spoke, I wouldn't have discovered Fifth Elder. I definitely didn't hear Fifth Elder say anything. If Fifth Elder does not wish to be disturbed, Yulong will immediately leave. Xoli couldn't spot any gaps in Xio Yulong<unk>s expression. His thoughts relaxed a bit and his aura retracted. His expression also eased. Forget it, it's<unk> nothing. The Xio sect emissary will arrive tomorrow. You are the most likely to be selected. When that time comes, you will be reviving our blood's greatest wish. Fifth Elers's words are heavy. Yulong doesn't deserve them," Xio Yulong humbly said. Xoli nodded towards him and turned around to leave this place. After he left, Xio Yulong<unk>s expression gradually changed subtle. He rubbed his chin with his right hand and muttered with a frown, "Don't tell me if this is true. This would be really interesting." Habit was a frightening thing. It could inconspicuously and quietly tamper with a person's heart. During the marriage ceremony, Xio Chi wanted to lend an arm to Zia Kingu and had his arm mercilessly frozen by her. The first time he called her wife, it almost sent her into a rage. The first time he led her by the hand, Xioi could feel the ice cold killing intent coming from her. However, during these few days, the King, my wife call coming from Xioi's mouth became more and more smooth. No matter what she thought in her heart, she appeared on the surface to have wholly come to accept this form of a dress. Even undressing in front of him wasn't that awkward anymore, not to mention him leading her by the palm. These few days, Xyrochi, without a doubt, slept in the corner, but it wasn't that uncomfortable with the thick blanket spread on the floor. Whenever 3:00 in the morning came about, he would wake up by himself and use the silver needles to give her treatment. These few days, she also became more and more aware of how much her physique had astonishingly changed. The lighting was dim, but Zia Kingu<unk>s back was like jade, her skin brighter than snow. Xiochi held the silver needles in his hand as his fingers fluttered. Before long, he was covered in sweat. Half an hour later, another session of opening the profound had finished. Zyrochi removed all of the silver needles. A long sigh of relief escaping from his mouth. Exhausted, his mind suddenly felt dizzy and his body swayed before collapsing on top of Zia King<unk>s bare back. An indescribable feeling of warmth and softness spread across his chest. Ziaingu abruptly opened her eyes, a look of anger passing through them. She was just about to use strength pushed Xioi far away when she felt that his current breathing was unexpectedly incomparably weak, weaker by several factors than any time before. Ziaingu withdrew her profound strength and used only a small bit of power to push aside Xio Chi. She then dressed in a flash before extending a hand to support Xioi's body. Looking at him, she asked, "What's wrong?" Xyrochi's complexion was so pale that not even a trace of blood could be seen. His eyes were half open, as if he had lost the strength to open them completely. He nodded slightly, then weakly said, "It's nothing. I had just overused my strength and energy a bit. Let me rest a little and I'll be fine. Zia Kingyu<unk>s eyes wavered, a feeling of an ache that she shouldn't have once again appearing in her heart. After the first acupuncture treatment, his entire body had lost strength. Every time it happened, he was able to recover relatively easily. However, these last few days, he had to perform acupuncture on her everyday. Every needle required the limit of his profound chi. His body was originally weak. to be continuously weakened like this. How could he afford that? It was possible for this to cause his body irreparable harm. "You don't need to put in so much effort for me," Ziaingu said with a complex look in her eyes. Xiochi grinned as he laughed. "No, you're worth it because you are my official wife," Ziaingu. Xiochi closed his eyes and slowly gathered his strength. Using a very quiet voice, he said, "Even though you married me to repay a debt of gratitude, you never considered me your husband. But there's no way for me to act like you're not my wife aside from divorcing you. Treating his woman well is also the most basic responsibility and most important honor for a man. After saying this, Xio's chest started to feel warm. I say even I was touched by those words. I don't believe that you with your womanly heart felt nothing. For a long time, he didn't hear any Zia Kingu say anything. He opened his eyes, lightly, took a few breaths, and then said with a pitiful expression, "King, you my wife, I might not be able to walk very well. Can you help me over there?" His eyes looked towards that corner, the place where he slept. Zia Kingu gave the blanket covering the ground a look, the aching feeling in her heart that she shouldn't have, intensifying a sliver. She shook her head, her body turning to the bedside. "You sleep on the bed, I'll sleep there." Upon hearing this talk, Xio Chi was suddenly alarmed. Borrowing strength from who knows where, he quickly reached out and grabbed Zia King<unk>s arm. Out of the question? That's definitely out of the question. Even though you are stronger than me in every respect, I'm a man. You're a woman. As a man, how could I sleep on the bed and let a woman sleep on the floor? If you want to sleep there, then I'd rather sleep in the courtyard. His voice was urgent and contained an irrefutable kind of resolution. As he finished speaking, he also struggled to get up as if he wanted to get off the bed. A complex expression appeared on Zia Kingyu<unk>s face. She lightly bit her lip and after a brief struggle, finally made a decision. She reached out and gave Xio's weak body a light push back, grabbed the crimson blanket, and covered both his and her own body with it. You're not allowed to touch me. Ziaingu laid down on the outside half of the bed, her back facing Xioi, hiding her current expression from him. Xio Chi silently smiled. He quickly adopted a snug sleeping posture and happily closed his eyes. Rest easy. With your profound strength, even if I wanted to, I still won't be able to do anything to you. Who sharing the same bed? Only like this can we be considered husband and wife. Zia Kingu. All right, King. You my wife. I'll sleep first. Woo. Tomorrow I'll have little aunt make me some jinseng and chicken soup to recuperate. Woo. Xioi's voice became more and more quiet. As his voice completely faded, his breathing also became exceptionally steady. He peacefully fell asleep in the midst of his immense exhaustion. Ziaingu quietly turned towards him. Seeing Xiochi's face close at hand, her gaze trembled with a complex expression. Ever since she joined frozen cloud Asgard, she had decided to suppress her feelings and desires for a lifetime. Never did she think that there would be a day where she would be sleeping in the same bed as a man. Before marrying Xyrochi, she wouldn't allow even his slightest touch. But now she was sleeping in the same bed as him. Not only that, there wasn't much unacceptance in her heart. What's wrong with me? Don't tell me it's because I feel guilty towards him. Maybe her thoughts agitated. She unwittingly also sank into her dreams. She didn't realize that being able to fall asleep so quickly with a man clearly laying right next to her meant that unconsciously her heart already did not hold any feelings of weariness or rejection towards Xioi. This nap had Xioi sleeping until 3 hours after sunrise. When he opened his eyes, Zia Kingu was already gone from his side. Her figure was also nowhere to be found inside the room. Even though he rested for an entire night, his body was still stressed and it felt as if he had a grave injury. Xioi got up, letting out a heavy sigh and thought out loud. If this continues, there's a chance my body really will break down. I seem to have excessively showed off a bit too much. However, this is the only way to have her willingly look for those three things for me. Xioi got off the bed and changed his clothing. After taking off his outer garments, he held the pendant hanging around his neck, momentarily dazed on the first day of his rebirth. The overlapping memories gave rise to an immense suspicion concerning this pendant. That's because in his life on Azure Cloud continent, he also had a pendant around his neck that was exactly the same as this one. The pendant appeared to be made of silver and could be opened to reveal a bright and clean mirror on each side. However, that was it. There was nothing else special about it. On Azure Cloud continent, his master told him that this pendant was around his neck when he picked him up. In addition, the one on his neck now has also been around his neck for as long as he could remember. Grandfather told him that this was something that his father, Xio Ying, got from who knows where. Ever since he was born, it has been around his neck and has also served as a memory of his father. Two lives, the exact same pendant. What exactly is going on here? After changing his clothes, Xio Chi immediately entered the sky poison pearl. Inside the emerald green world, the scarlet-haired girl was still peacefully floating in a protective posture, showing no signs of waking up. These two days, he tried to roundaboutly ask grandfather and Zia Kingu if there was any place that had red-haired people. The response he always got was, "This is the first time hearing of it." This caused Xio Chi to have an even greater interest and suspicion towards this girl's identify. However, he didn't tell anyone of this girl's existence. Having changed into a set of casual clothing, he gave his body a stretch. Suddenly, an alluring and delicious smell passed in front of Xyrochi's nose, causing him to momentarily salivate. He followed the smell, and upon seeing a pot of soup on the table, rushed over with all speed. As he opened the lid, a gust of steam accompanied by a seductively delicious smell slowly rose up. Jinsenang and chicken soup. Ah, little ant is the best after all. Xio's stomach immediately rumbled. He picked up the chopsticks and started gulping down the food. After he ate for a while, the front door was pushed open and Xyro Lynxy, dressed in all light yellow, charmingly walked in. Upon seeing Xyro Cheese table manners, she opened her mouth to say, "Yay, chicken soup. It smells delicious and it seems to have the smell of jinseng. Little Chi, who made this chicken soup for you? He he and you didn't tell me, sneakily eating here by yourself. Xolin's words gave Xioi a moment of pause. Little aunt, don't tell me that you didn't bring this over. Of course not. As Zo Linksy finished speaking, the expression in her eyes suddenly became strange. Who else in this Xyro clan would make chicken soup for you besides me? Hm. It can only be your wife, Kingu. It seems that the relationship between you two as husband and wife is fairly good. Xio Lynxy's words obviously carried a sense of sourness. Xyrochi set down his chopsticks and muttered, "She, how could she make chicken soup for me? This definitely wasn't possible. HMPH, it doesn't matter who made it for you. To begin with, you liked chicken soup. Just drink it all. I came here to tell you that the Xio sect people will arrive in the afternoon. Right now, the entire Xio clan is preparing for it. When the time comes, you have to be a bit careful. You must not carelessly offend the Xyio sect people. Xio Linkxy solemnly said, "I know. If worst comes to worst, I just won't go outside. They couldn't possibly select me anyway." Xiochi answered indifferently. "You can't<unk>t stay inside." Xolo Linkxy shook her jade-like finger at him, sternly, saying, "From what the clan master said, the young master from the XO sect wants to review everyone in the XO clan. Not one can be missing. At that time, you must not forget your manners. Then there's even less to worry about. It's not like little aunt doesn't know that I always have been the most well- behaved." Xioi answered with a smile. He then started to gulp down the food again. "All right, then I'll go to Daddy first to help. It'd be good if you joined us after you finish eating the chicken soup." Xio Linksy turned and left as soon as she finished speaking. Not long after Xoliny left, Ziaingu returned. Today she had traded her red clothes for a waterblue dress embroidered with a phoenix design. In her hair was a sapphire pin. From her ears dangled a pair of pearl earrings, and around her neck hung a sapphire blue pearl necklace. The visible neck skin was lustrously snow white, transparent to the point where it seemed that even the bones underneath could be seen. It radiated light and was an extremely beautiful sight to behold. Xioi stared at her with an overwhelmed expression, his eyes intensely lighting up. This kind of uniquely beautiful scene, wasn't it just like a picture of a fairy descending to the mortal realm. Zia Kingu walked through the door, every step light and graceful as if she were stepping on clouds. Her snow white face and pale neck were not only beautiful to the extreme, but also exuded a kind of nobility and cold proudness that would bring people to shame. No one who saw her would believe that she was merely the daughter of a small town merchant, but would rather think that she was an aloof and untouchable empress. Zyrochi stared at her in a daysaze as his heart sighed a thousand times. This room was the only place that she could have changed. He must have been sleeping soundly and actually missed the beautiful scene of her changing. Ah, it was simply unforgivable. Blue clothing suits you even better than red. Xioi heartfeltly praised as he watched her, delighted beyond compare. Zia Kingu was not moved in the least by his admiration. Seeing the empty soup pot on the table, she walked over and picked it up, preparing to go outside. "Did you make that chicken soup?" Xiochi asked out loud. "Did it taste bad?" Zia Kingu asked in an ice cold manner, her back facing him. However, within the depth of her eyes was a subtle emotion that even she herself did not understand. "It was really good. That was when I knew that you're exceptional even when it comes to making soup," Xiochi said with a smile. He stood up and stretched, then said earnestly, "In order to repay my wife Kingu<unk>s chicken soup tonight on the bed, I'll put in even more energy." Zia Kingu had already become accustomed to his occasional flirting, she said expressionlessly. "The Xyio people will arrive this afternoon. The leader is the youngest son of the Xyioex master called Xioangjian. I heard master say that this Xioangjian<unk>s profound strength cultivation can only be considered average among the younger generation of the Xio sect and his reputation abroad is extremely poor. However, he is excessively spoiled because he's the youngest son. There's no one in floating cloud city that dares to provoke him. It's best to try to avoid meeting him face to face. Xioangjian. All right, I understand. Thank you for warning me, King. You my wife. Xioi said beaming. Today was the day of arrival for the people from the Xyro sect. News of the Xyro sects arrival not only affected the Xyro clan, but it also immensely affected all of Floating Cloud City. Floating Cloud City was situated at the bottom of Blue Wind Empire in every respect. On the other hand, the Xio sect was situated at the very summit of the Blue Wind Empire. The number of levels between the two were innumerable. people from the Xio sect and also the youngest son of the Xiocts master coming here in person was no different than the emperor visiting the lowest rural family. All a floating cloud city had been enveloped in a kind of nervous atmosphere. Some people faintly looked forward to it, hoping use any kind of method to establish even the tiniest bit of connection with the Xiao sect. Even more people were alarmed in their hearts. Upon finding out that this afternoon is when they would arrive, they all locked themselves inside for fear of accidentally offending the other party. If the Xyro sex people wanted to kill them, it wouldn't be much different from stepping on an ant. For them, laws were just a joke. The Xyro clan's main courtyard had been put in neat and tidy order with not a speck of dust to be found anywhere. As early as two days ago, the Xyro clan's largest and most luxurious courtyard that Xyro Yunhai had always lived in had again been swept and decorated. Even the bed sheets, blankets, and furniture had all been replaced. In addition, Xio Yunhai had moved himself to the smaller courtyard next door. Even the next few days worth of food had been personally arranged by him. Although he was weary to death, his heart stayed incomparably exuberant. That's because he was 100% confident that his son Xyro Yulong would be the one selected by the Xyro sect this time. At that time, his son would soar into the sky, and he himself would become someone that no one would dare provoke in Floating Cloud City. No, rather within a radius of 100 Lee. TL Lee equals 5 km. Starting from 10:00 in the morning, Xio Yunhai had personally led all of the elders to wait at the clan entrance, ready to greet the guests. They waited all the way until noon. Then until the afternoon, it wasn't until 5:00 in the afternoon when a Zyro clan disciple ran back shouting from a distance, "Clan master, they they've arrived." Zyroex people have arrived that loftiness. It's definitely the Xyro sect. Everyone's body shook. Zyro Yunhai took a quick step out, bellowing in a low voice. Quick, immediately notify everyone to make ready. I definitely won't forgive anyone who messes up and offends the noble guests. Fellow elders, follow me out to meet them at once." Xio Yunhai madly rushed out, only after forging straight ahead for more than a Lee did, he finally see four people unhurriedly walking in their direction. Of the four of them, in the lead was a young man that looked to be about 20 years old with luxurious clothing, a normal build, and mediocre features. His white face contained a trace of saloness, his appearance that of an excessive hedenist. As far as looks went, he wouldn't stand out in the midst of a crowd. However, even such an ordinary face was full of wild arrogance and haughtiness. His hands were behind his back as he walked, his eyes looking upwards, not even glancing at the occasional passerby, as if even a look would dirty his eyes. Following behind him was an elder in black clothing, his features calm like water. Even further back were two similarly black clothed youths and silver eagle pattern was embroidered onto each of their shoulders. Xyro Yunhai took a deep breath and then quickly walked up to welcome them. He cupuffed his fist in greeting. His body lent forward and carefully and respectfully asked, "Excuse me, are you for the noble guests from the Xyro sect?" The young man in front stopped, glanced at them lazily, then said with half-cloed eyes, "That's right. This noble one is the Xyro sexy. Xio Yunhai<unk>s attitude immediately became even more respectful. He reverently said, "It turned out to be four noble guests. That's great. We have been looking forward to your arrival for a long time. Your humble servant is floating Cloud City's XO clan's current clan master. The five behind me are the Xio Clan's five esteemed elders. For four noble guests to come out all this way for our Xio clan, we are extremely grateful and humbled. There's no need to continue with the nonsense. Xioangian<unk>s gaze flickered across all five elders. He then lazily shook his arms out. Lead the way. Yes, yes, please follow me. Xyro Yunhai promptly nodded and then turned his body to personally lead the way back to Xyro clan. I'm afraid I don't recognize this senior Xio Mashan. The blacklothed elder replied indifferently. His face was without emotion, much like that of a corpse. Xio Yunhai didn't dare to speak any further. his heart full of apprehension. He could make out Zio Quangjian's level of profound strength cultivation, but couldn't sense even a sliver of profound strength from this Xioshan's body. This could be because this Xyro Mashian hadn't cultivated, which was clearly not possible. Either that or his profound strength cultivation surpassed his ability to detect it by far. By the time they returned to the XO clan, a large group of people were already standing at the entrance. upon seeing the respectful attitude of Xio Yunhai in the front. Their hearts thumped. Their eyes all fell upon that hotty young man. And then they all tripped over one another to welcome them. "May I ask if this is the young master from the Xyro sect?" A heavy set, middle-aged man at the very front asked respectfully. "Who are you?" Xyro Quangji unslanted his halfopen eyes to look at him. "I I am the governor of Floating Cloud City. My lowly name is Sidunan." When I heard that the noble guests from the Xyro sect were arrival, I came came to greet you. Sidu Nan's voice started to tremble and cold sweat ran across his forehead. As floating Cloud City's governor, he had seen many important figures, but none of the important figures that he had seen amounted to anything in front of this young master of the Xio sect. The arrogant young man in front of him was only mediocre in terms of appearance, but just a word from him would spell his death. This humble servant is Yuan Ba. I've been good friends with the Xyroclan clan master for many years. I came came to admire the gracefulness of the Xyro sect young master. I also brought a few meager gifts. I hoping the young master will accept them. The Euan family head equally famous among the Xyro clan and floating cloud city also rushed forward his face full of respect. His hands offered a small and delicate jade box. Zyro Quangjian passed his gaze over that jade box and then swept his hand towards the two people behind him. Receive it. One of the people behind him immediately stepped forward and expressionlessly took the jade box into his hands. Seeing that the Xyro sect young master had actually accepted his gift, Yuan Ba's face filled with happiness. Other people looking to establish some small bit of relationship with the Xio sect scrambled forward to present their own gifts. Xouroang didn't refuse anyone and accepted all the gifts without question. Then with slanted eyes, he carelessly spoke. All of you withdraw. It's<unk> already a bit late today. If there's anything else, we<unk>ll talk about it tomorrow. Right. Right. Young Master Xio traveled over land and water to come here. He must be exhausted. We<unk>ll come back tomorrow once young master Xio has rested. Governor Sidu said as he nodded his head. Only then did the crowd disperse. Xio Yunhai and the five elders respectfully introduced Xioangjian to the Xio clan. Xio Yunhai said to them, "The four noble guests from the XO sect have traveled it this way and must be exhausted. Would you like to have short rest first? An elegant residence has already been prepared. There's no need. My body isn't that weak." Xioangjian swept his gaze across the XO clan as the corners of his mouth stretched, exposing a hard to hide disdain. He then unenthusiastically said, "If it weren't for Elder Xio Xiang<unk>s death, I wouldn't even have known there was this kind of place. I heard that the ancestor of this place was a piece of trash that our Xyro sect had expelled. However, no matter how trashy, it's still someone from the Xyro sect. Even if he's a piece of trash that the Zyro sect didn't want, he was still able to become a lord in this kind of place. To be able to grow like this over these many years, it's still not bad." Yes. Yes. Thank you for the compliment, young master Xyro. Faced with Xyro Quangian<unk>s naked contempt and disdain, Xyro Yunhai still nodded his head to express his thanks. How could he dare retort even a bit? The dead are important. The reason I personally came here is also to fulfill Elder Xioangs final wish. We clearly stated our purpose to you in our letter. Tomorrow morning, have everyone in your clan assemble in this courtyard. Not one of them must be missing. I will personally select one to take with us back to the Xio sect. After saying this last sentence, Xio Quangian held his head high as if he were announcing heaven's fortunate edict. Yes, tomorrow morning everyone in the XO clan will gather here. I promise not one will be missing. Xio Yunhai promptly pledged. Great. Our time is really precious. We only have tomorrow. I don't want there to be any unexpected issues. Xioangjian indifferently said, then tilted his head. You are all the esteemed elder Xiohiang<unk>s descendants. It's<unk>s only right to bring this gift. Xioba, deliver the gift. The one called Xioba stepped forward and expressionlessly placed a wooden box in front of Xio Yunhai. Xio Yunhai's hands trembled as he received it with a terrified expression on his face. I thank thank the Xio sect for its gift. I'm very grateful. The thing inside is called profound opening powder. It can clear a profound vein, letting a person cultivate much faster for a certain period of time. It also has a very good restorative effect on profound veins that have been damaged for any reason. Even among our Xioct, this is considered a very effective medicine. The implication was that since it was an effective medicine to the Xioct, then to them it would be considered a first rate magical elixir. It also has a very good restorative effect on profound veins that were damaged for any reason. This sentence caused the expression of the updo tacetern and silent Xio lie to suddenly spasm. His eyes leaked a strange light, but then he immediately sighed inwardly as his expression dimmed. Xyro Yunhai carefully put the wooden box aside and then said with a face full of gratitude, "Since it is the Xyo sex medicine, then its effects must be beyond my imagination. I don't know how our XO clan will be able to repay Young Master Xio<unk>'s great favor. Since young master Xio doesn't need to rest, how about I have a few people take you gentlemen for a tour around our XO clan or floating cloud city. Even though this is a small town, we have a few places that may brighten your eyes. Seeing that Xyroangjian didn't shake his head, Xyro Yunhai immediately reached out and dragged Xio Yulong over. This is my son, Xio Yulong. His age is similar to young Master Xio. Why not have him take everyone out for a stroll? Xyro Yunhai's intention was very clear. He wanted to, as much as possible, have Xyro Yulong be the first to mingle and get familiar with Xyro Quangian. That way, the chances of him being taken back to the Xyro sect would further increase. If he could make a good impression on Xyroang, then it was possible that he may earn Xyroangjians protection once in the Xyro sect, thereby rapidly rising in position. This lowly servant is Xyro Yulong. To be able to witness the elegance of the noble guests from the Xio sect surely is the fortune of a lifetime. Xio Yulong stepped forward, his face humble and modest. Xioangian gave Xio Yulong a look over and indifferently said, "Fine, then take us for a stroll. I've stayed at the popular places for a long time. It's not bad to get a look at the remote areas. The rest of you can disperse. I don't like being followed by too many people. I will find you when I need you." Yes, yes," Xio Yunhai replied as he promptly nodded. If you gentlemen need anything, then please immediately tell anyone here. Yulong, please take good care of these honored guests. Yes, father. Xyro Yunhai and the five elders left respectfully. The people from the Xyro sect arrived later than expected, so naturally, the official business will be delayed to tomorrow. Xyro Yulong stood to the side of Xyro Quangian and Bode, showing a relatively humble attitude. His face revealed a smile. Young Master Xio, even though this floating cloud city is small, but it has everything you'd expect it to have. I don't know if young Master Xio wants to first experience the beautiful scenery, fine delicacies, or the beautiful women. Seeing the vague smile on X Yulong<unk>s face, Xyro Quangians eyes brightened, his face also revealing a trace of a lwd smile. As men, what do you say we should first experience? How could Xio Yulong not know what kind of person he was from his salow face? He immediately gave a he he kind of laugh and said, "You can tell young Master X is a true man from a glance. As a true man, obviously we should first experience the things that a true man enjoys. Even though our floating cloud city is a small town, our city's heavenly fragrant house is known far and wide. More than a few people travel hundreds of Lee because of its reputation. Let us first take a turn there. You boy are pretty sensible. Xio Quanjian, his lips curling, looked into Xio Yulong<unk>s eyes for a moment. Let's go. Xyro Yulong<unk>s footsteps were swift as he walked ahead to lead the way. When they were just about to leave, the silhouette of a beautiful girl appeared in Xyro Quangjian<unk>s line of sight. The girl's figure was wonderfully moving and delicate to the extreme. Looking from afar, her physique was so graceful that it was simply too hard to describe. Under the azure long skirt, one could faintly make out a pair of exquisite and slender legs. Her dress floated in the wake of her slow walk, and her jewelry occasionally twinkled on her delicate womanly figure. The perfect arcs of her waist, breasts, and buttocks were indescribably lovely. She radiated an incomparable, soul-shaking charm, and had a kind of proud appearance and attitude that transcended this world. Xioangians mouth gaped widely, and his entire body froze on the spot. His eyes unwaveringly stared at that exquisite silhouette in the distance. Inwardly panicking, he almost believed that he was seeing a river nymph from the legends. As if noticing his stare, the girl angled her face towards him gave him a cold look, then turned her head and walked into the courtyard. Even her complexion, from the glimpse that Xyro Quangian got when she turned her head to glance at him, caused his body to shake as if all the bones in his body had turned soft and melted. He still hadn't returned to his senses even long after Zia Kingu had left his sight. Upon Zia King<unk>s sudden and inopportune appearance, Xyro Yulong<unk>s heart gave off a thump sound as he prayed that she wouldn't be spotted by Xioangian. But unfortunately, Xioang saw her and had also shown the same reaction that the majority of men had the first time they saw Ziaingu<unk>s true face. No, the reaction was even more exaggerated. Zyro Yulong<unk>s heart began to immediately twitch in this small floating cloud city, how could any woman that Xyro Quangjian had set his eyes on escape. And once Xyroang had set his eyes on her, it also meant that he wouldn't be able to obtain Zia Kingu in this lifetime. However, he immediately clenched his teeth lightly and standing next to Xyroangjian waved his hand in front of his face. He quietly whispered, "Young Master Xyro, that girl? Who is that girl? Who is she?" Xioangjian<unk>s expression was in turmoil, and even his voice was trembling in excitement. This world actually had a woman this beautiful. All of my wives and concubines, all of the women I've played around with, added together wouldn't be a match for her. A fairy, she's simply a fairy. Xio Quan had been moved to such a state of excitement that he had become incoherent. The light in his eyes was hot, almost to the point of combustion. Xyro Yulong changed to well-intentioned attitude and said with a face of smiles, "She's called Zia Kingu and is our floating Cloud City's most beautiful woman." "She truly is a fairylike person." "Zia Kingu, Zeia? Then she isn't a member of the XO clan, right?" Xio Yulong nodded his head as his eyes narrowed. He clearly stated, "She isn't a member of our Xio clan, but is rather the daughter of the richest merchant in our floating cloud city. She only married into our Xio clan 3 days ago, marrying the grandson of the fifth elder, Xio Chi. What? She's married? Xio Quanjian<unk>s expression belied his disappointment. In a flash, it then turned into a burning jealousy and an extremely intense desire. She's actually married and married into your XO clan. That's absolutely ridiculous. How could the grandson of a puny XClan elder be worthy of this kind of fairy? Right, young Master Xio<unk>'s words are too true. Xou Yulong promptly agreed. Only a person with a dragon's amount of talent like Young Master Xio can be worthy of this kind of fairy. Young Master Xio doesn't know that even though the person she married is the grandson of an elder, he is actually our Xio clan's most useless person. His profound veins have been deformed since his childhood. Even now, he's still only at the first level of the elementary profound realm. He's an absolute disgrace to our Zo clan. Wh what? Xioangjian<unk>s expression turned ashen and his hands began to tremble. This beauty is unexpectedly married to that kind of trash. This is absolutely unforgivable. Unforgivable. That kind of woman should belong to me. Xyroouang. How could a piece of trash from the Xyro clan be worthy of her? Xioangjian growled in a low voice, the flames of his jealousy igniting. He immediately walked towards the courtyard that Zia Kingu had just entered. He had walked only two steps when a forceful and dignified voice sounded from behind him. Young master, the sect master appointing you to come out here is also a kind of learning experience. The sect master specifically warned you that you mustn't do anything that will lower the reputation of the sect, especially snatching away someone else's wife. Xioang stopped moving, his entire face full of lust and disagreement. However, he still obediently stopped moving. Zyro Yulong glanced at that elder called Xyro Mashan in bewilderment. It seems that he came here not only to accompany and protect Xyro Quangian, but was also his overseer. Just one sentence was enough to scare Xioang into an action. Furthermore, from his words, it was evident that this Xyroang had already snatched other people's wives quite a few times before. Xyro Yulong<unk>'s gaze wavered. He quickly walked next to Xyro Quangjian and said in a low voice, "Young Master X, if you have set your eyes on that Zia Kingu, you may not have to use force to take her. There are many methods to do this." "Mods? What methods?" Xioangjian turned his head and stared at him with his burning gaze. Xio Yulong immediately leaned towards his ear and quickly whispered into it. After he finished talking, Xyroian<unk>s eyes immediately lit up. The corner of his mouth also revealed the trace of an impatient, lewd smile. This is something that I just learned. I haven't told anyone else. I didn't think that it would happen to be able to help young Master Xyro. It truly can't get any better. Seeing Xyroangs LWD smile, Xyro Yulong<unk>s heart was filled with loathing, but his face still obediently held a smile. Very good. Extremely good. Xyrojian slowly nodded his head. It seems like young master Xio has a similar taste in beautiful women. Actually, within our XO clan, there are more beauties than just Zia Kingu. Xio Yulong said in a low voice. Fifth Elder Xi has a daughter who just turned 15 this year, but is already an outstanding beauty. She isn't worse than Zia Kingu by much. I don't know if young master Xio has any interest. 15year-old and is almost as beautiful as that fairy from just then. Xioangjian<unk>s eyes fiercely widened, revealing a wolf-like glint. Upon seeing the look in his eyes, Zyro Yulong knew what he should do next. He once again leaned towards Xyroang and said in a low voice, "If young master Xyro is interested, then this is even easier. The method is really simple. We just have to." Xyro Yulong leaned close to Xyrojian<unk>s ear and again whispered into it. "Ha h a ha ha h a ha." Xyroangjian started to laugh wildly as the obscene look in his eyes intensified. When I return, I should really thank my father for letting me meet two stunning beauties. I really didn't come here to this far away place in vain. His gaze turned towards Xio Yulong. He then slowly nodded his head. You're called Xouong, right? Yes. Yes, this lowly one is X Yulong. Xouong showed excitement on his face. For Xioangjian to remember his name was his greatest honor. You are pretty good, not bad at all. If these two things are taken care of successfully, then after we return to the XO sect, you should just stick to my side. Xio Quanjian said with narrowed eyes, "Ah," Xio Yulong<unk>s entire body shook. He was moved to where his eyes were opened widely. After he recovered, he knelt in front of Xyro Quang with a puong sound and heavily cowtowed. Yulong thanks young master Zo for his large kindness. If it's<unk> possible to stay by young master Xyro<unk>'s side, then Yulong will definitely loyally with all my heart take care of young master Xyro. This result caused Xyro Yulong<unk>s heart to wildly throbb in pleasant surprise. To be able to enter the Xyro sect is already a delight equivalent to reaching heaven in one step. Yet to be able to follow the son of the sect master is an entirely different thing. It's something that Xio Yulong would have never dared to imagine before. Xoli originally had great expectations for the people from the Xio sect. The son of the Xiocts master presumably should be like a celestial dragon god. However, at first sight, he was instead greatly disappointed. He didn't see the aura, grace, self-restraint, and appropriate loftiness that the direct disciples of a great sect should have. Rather, he only saw condescending arrogance and a tyrannical look in his eyes that left an uneasy feeling. It was just like that of a pampered and spoiled playboy that had grown up among sycophants. But upon thinking carefully, he was also relieved. After all, the Xio sect couldn't possibly care about this small Xio clan. How could they send some great person over? The status of the son of the sect master was also merely to express a superficial respect to the dead Xioang. Daddy, I just heard them say that you and the clan master headed off to welcome the Xio sex people. How come you're back so soon? Xolo Linkxy had just happened to stop by to deliver food to Xoli with a face full of curiosity. She asked, "Have the people from the XO sect already arrived? What kind of people are they? Do they have a really frightening aura?" Xoliny's questions reminded him of the elder standing behind Xio Quangian. He nodded. Of course, the people from the Xyro sect are unfathomable. However, Zur, you should avoid the Xyroex people as much as possible in the few days that they're here. The young man leading them isn't some kind of benevolent person. If you can avoid them, then you should do so. Ah, Xolo Linkxy blinked her eyes in disbelief and then nodded lightly. I know, Daddy. In fact, I was already a little bit afraid of them. After all, they are from the XO sect. They must be super super powerful. Even if you're curious, you should try to stay away from them. Xoli once again warned. He lightly breathd in and with a heavy load on his mind walked into the courtyard. Daddy, why do you look like you have something on your mind? Did something especially big happen? Xoliny asked nervously. As a daughter who knew her father well with just a glance, Xio Linksy could see through Xoli's facial expression. Xoli froze for a second and then shook his head. It's nothing. He paused for a moment as he realized that if he didn't say it out loud, then this clever daughter of his may not feel at ease for the rest of the day. He could only slowly respond. The Xyro sect brought a gift called the profound opening powder. From what that Xioang said, this profound opening powder has a great restorative effect on damaged profound veins. So, ah, it can fix damaged profound veins. Is that true? Xoli hadn't even finished talking, but Xio Lynxy was already crying out in excitement. All of the sudden, her small hands tightly clenched the edges of her clothing, fixing Xyrochi's profound veins had always been her greatest wish. These past few years, she had non-stop diligently searched for every possible method with Xio Li. Xoli<unk>'s words were no different to her than the celestial sound of heaven granting her wish. The effects of the Xyocex medicine can't be compared to that of ordinary medicine. It may really be able to provide surprising results. Saying this, Xioi's expression slowly dimmed. However, the profound opening powder's most important use is to accelerate the speed of cultivation for a certain amount of time. Right now, the clan master and the rest of them all consider this profound opening powder as a treasure to convince them to use the profound opening powder on the body of Chi, who's considered a good for nothing in their eyes. It truly was a slim hope. Xio Lynxy's expression became sluggish. Xoli's words were like a pale of cold water that extinguished all of her excitement. She bit her lips and resolutely said, "No matter how, we must obtain the profound opening powder. Little Chi definitely isn't a good for nothing. He's the one that needs the profound opening powder the most. I'll try with all my power to fight for it. Seeing her daughter's expression, Xoli let out a long sigh. However, in his heart, he was perfectly clear how little hope there was of getting the profound opening powder. In other words, it was absolutely impossible. Nightfall. I saw the Xyroex Zyro Quangian today. Candle light faintly swayed inside the room. Zia Kingu sat at the side of the bed and lightly said, "Oh, what kind of person is he?" Xioi yawned before casually asking with an indifferent look. He is like his name. Zia King<unk>s eyebrows drooped as she remembered the look in Xioangjian<unk>s eyes as he looked at her. A look of disgust passed through her eyes. Her master had told her that of the Xio sect master's four sons. The other three all could be considered as having dragon-like talent. Only the fourth son was an 100% idiot. However, he nevertheless was doted on the most by the sect master, possibly because he was the youngest and was the legal wife's only son. TL Quangian translates to wild/violent cloud. That's pretty normal. If you think about it, it's pretty obvious what kind of people the Xyro sect would send to this place. But either way, it still has nothing to do with me. At the most, I just have to go tomorrow as a formality. Zyrochi shrugged as he spoke. His eyebrows suddenly twitched and his expression sharpened slightly. He raised his head and asked, "King, you my wife? You said you saw him. Then did he also see you?" "That's right. Why?" Zia Kingu raised her eyebrows. Xioi raised his hand to rub his chin, then suddenly said, "You said before that he was a piece of trash with an exceedingly bad reputation." "This kind of trash, Sai, King, you my wife. If I haven't guessed wrong, your master should be near Floating Cloud City, right? How did you know?" A trace of astonishment flashed across Zia King<unk>s face. Xio Chi didn't explain, he said with a serious expression. "Since it's<unk> like that, think of a way to communicate with your master. It'd be best to have her come to this place tomorrow." After thinking for a moment, his expression once again relaxed. Since your master is nearby, then I guess there won't be any big problems. Let's sleep. Ziaingu<unk>s delicate brows raised slightly, and she then quietly pondered for a moment. She once again thought back to the expression in Xio Conjian's eyes as he looked at her this afternoon and finally understood the meaning behind Xioi's words. Her expression suddenly spasomemed and she unconsciously reached out to pinch the icicle-shaped sound transmitting device at her waist. Seeing Xiochi preparing to spread the blanket at the corner, her gaze faintly swayed. Her lips continuously moved quite a few times before she finally let out a voice. Come sleep on the bed. Ah. Xioi turned his body towards her and said with wide eyes, Kingu, my wife, what did you say? Zia Kingu immediately turned her face away to hide her current expression. She coldly replied, "If you didn't hear it, then forget it." "I heard it. How could I not have heard it?" Xioi immediately nodded like a chick pecking rice. He threw the blanket in his hand away and quickly threw himself onto the bed, then looked at Zia Kingu with a happy smile. King, my wife, will you sleep on the inside or outside tonight? Zia Kingyu didn't reply. With a wave of her snowy hand, she extinguished all of the red candle in the space of a second. The room was immediately pitch black, and her heart also secretly let out a sigh. She reached out and pushed Xyrochi to the inside, pulled the blanket over, and covered both of their bodies with it. Laying down sideways with her back to Xyrochi, she said in a quiet and cold voice, "You don't need to think about it too much. I'm only doing this to make it more convenient for you to treat my body at 3:00 in the morning. You're not allowed to do forbidden things. Otherwise, I won't ever let you sleep on the bed again. As you wish, my beloved lady wife. Xioi elatedly spoke as he gave the blankets a tug and sniffed the remainder of the young lady's fragrance that was still held in it. Now she was being called wife by Xioi several dozen times a day. From the initial sulking up to now, not only did hearing it feel incomparably natural, but also at the same time gave her a kind of indescribable feeling of I am his wife. This subtle change caused her to be flustered and more so left her at a loss. She closed her eyes and strove to avoid thinking about these things that set her heart into disorder. Not long after, she peacefully fell asleep. It had unwittingly become 3:00 in the morning. This was the darkest time before dawn, and the entire Xyro clan was peaceful. The only sounds that could be heard were the occasional buzzing of insects. In the darkness, from Xolyny's courtyard came a light creek sound, and following that sound, the securely closed house door slowly opened. A petite shadow slowly snuck out, and after peering at the surroundings for a while, quickly ran fled outside. The shadow hadn't been able to step outside the courtyard gate when a tall gray figure suddenly dropped from the sky, landing in front of her. The sound of a girl's cry of alarm rose up. Then soon after came a solemn voice lowered with great effort. Zur, where are you going this late at night? Ah, duh, daddy. The greatly frightened shadow pulled down the shroud covering her face, revealing a lovely and touching girl's face. It really was Xio Lynxy. looking at the Xyro lii that had suddenly appeared in front of her. Her soul shook momentarily. I I I ah Zyoli let out a long sigh, then said in a low voice. Zur, you want to go steal the profound opening powder, right? I I Zo Linksy lowered her head as she faltered. You are my daughter. How could I not know what you're thinking in your heart? Xoli once again let out a long sigh and then patted his daughter on her shoulder. After you left me this afternoon, I thought you had a strange look in your eyes. I felt uneasy, so I came here to stand guard. Sure enough, you had the thought to go steal the profound opening powder. Zer, you really are too willful. Do you know how dangerous this is? That profound opening powder isn't something ordinary. It is a gift from the Xyo sect. If your tracks were discovered, then it would be in the Xiocts jurisdiction. At that time, if the those four from the Xyro sect decide you're guilty not to mention me, there's no one in this floating cloud city that could save you. XLY lowered her head and bit her lips. I I know all of that, but but little Chi is too pitiful. He's clearly a good person, yet is always laughed at by people, looked down by people, and treated as trash by everyone. If he could fix his profound veins, then he won't be ridiculed anymore. He wouldn't fall short of anyone. Xio lie opened and closed his mouth, a look of remorse flashing across his face. I always wondered why Xio Chi was the one with the deformed profound veins and not me. This world is really too unfair to him. Daddy, did you know? Whenever I see little Chi being laughed at and that he still tries to adopt a uncaring look and instead come comfort me, my heart is filled with so much unease. If I could fix his profound veins, even if I have to become a thief, even if I receive the penalty of death, I would still be willing to do it a hundred times. As she talked, Xio Lynxy's eyes were already filled with tears. She covered her face with her hands and finally couldn't help but start sobbing. A violent spasm passed across Xio Li's face. As he looked at his sobbing daughter, his heart was also grieving. He quietly consoled. Zur, I know you are wholeheartedly doing this for Chi. But you doing this, leaving aside the consequences, Xro Yunhai didn't give that box of profound opening powder to anyone after receiving it. He should be carrying it on his body. With your strength, how could you steal anything from Xio Yunhai? Listen to me. Go back and sleep. Concerning the profound opening powder, I will spare no effort to think of something. Even though I haven't argued about anything these few years among the this Xyro clan, I on the whole still have a voice. Obtaining the profound opening powder isn't necessarily a completely hopeless cause. You aren't allowed to do this kind of silly thing in the future. If something really happened to you, who will take care of and protect Chi afterwards? Xoli's last sentence gently struck Xio Lynxy's soft heart, leaving her heart with a sudden lingering fear. That's right. If I didn't succeed, was caught and received a large punishment. What would happen to Little Chi? I I understand. Xio Linksy removed her black clothing and dropped them to the side. She wiped the tears from her face and said in with a guilty face, "Daddy, I'm sorry. I did a stupid thing and had you worry again. I'll obediently go sleep now and won't do something like this again. Daddy, you should quickly go back and rest. I promise I won't go steal the profound opening powder. Chuckle. It's good as long as you listen. Xoli nodded his head and smiled warmly. But before leaving, he still worriedly picked up black clothing on the ground and took it with him. Today could be said to be the Xio Clan's busiest day. Early in the morning, the Xio Clan entrance was already densely crowded. All of the influential families of floating Cloud City could be seen here, and furthermore, they were represented by their heads. Although there were many present, none dared to be loud. They all whispered to one another in the smallest voices possible for fear that they would disturb the important guests amongst the Xyo clan. I heard a long time ago that the Xyro clan's founder came from the Xyro sect. It looks to be unexpectedly true. The Xyro clan will be soaring to new heights. We have to maintain a good relationship with them from now on. Good thing I've never offended the Xyro clan. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to eat or sleep in peace. Old Mew, why did you come, too? Oh, everyone was rushing to be the first here, so I could not come. They're here to establish a relationship, but I'm here just in case. What if that brat from the Xio sect checked how many influential families were in floating Cloud City and then saw that no one from my MU family came here? If they find some fault with that, then my entire family would have to bear the consequences. Zyro clan's entrance remained closed, and everyone outside all waited with great care. Not one of them dared to leave. They waited until 9:00 in the morning. Before dawn, a platform had been set up in the empty ground in the middle of Xyro Clan with chairs, tables, and all kinds of equipment set up around it. At 8:00 in the morning, XYO clan sounded an urgent order for all of its inhabitants to assemble. At once, the Xyro clan's inhabitants gathered together as they immediately rushed to the rendevous spot. In less than a quarter of an hour, everyone in the Xyro clan, be they young or old, were in their designated positions with not one missing. Today would be the Xyro clan's most significant day. They all clearly knew what was going to happen today, and the vast majority had looks of excitement and anticipation. There were even some with mediocre talent who still wished in their hearts for the chance to be chosen by those from the XO sect. Xiochi was basically the last to arrive. When he walked in, leading Zia Kingu by the hand at a pace that was neither fast nor slow, he instantly became the focus of everyone present. Of course, it was just him alone. Chances were that no one would even want to look at him twice. What was important was the Zeia Kingu at his side. She had an exquisitly graceful posture and a complexion that was alluring enough to conquer not only a city but the world as well. The people there acted as if they were seeing an incomparably beautiful river ferry slowly walking towards them. This was especially true for the young men who stood there with glazed eyes and wildly beating hearts. some even a drool unconsciously streaming down the corners of their mouths. In contrast, Xiochi at her side, his face was pale, his eyelids drooped, his eyes seemed soulless, and his footsteps lacked strength. He had not even walked a dozen steps and had already yawned three times with the appearance of someone who had had excessive sexual intercourse and now yearned for sleep. Huh? Excessive sexual intercourse. As they thought of this and also saw the two of them hand in hand, quite a few people clenched their teeth as they trembled all over. Their eyes radiated a deep disastaction and a flaming jealousy upon thinking about this heavenly beauty, a goddess who they yearned for in their dreams being pressed down every day by the piece of waste that they looked down on the most. Their stomachs almost split open with anger and jealousy. Xio's half asleep and extremely fatigued appearance was not an act, but it obviously couldn't be because of any excessive intercourse. It would be strange if he had energy when he woke up at 3:00 in the morning for her regular acupuncture treatment, worked himself half to death, and then was again woken this early in the morning. As for their clasped hands, it definitely couldn't have been Ziaingu's doing. Rather, when they were walking over, Xio Chi suddenly grabbed her under the watchful eyes of the crowd. Since Zia Kingu couldn't impolitely free herself, in addition to the fact that she had gotten used to him holding her by the hand these past few days, she could only let it be. Everything within the XO clan is excellent, except the fact that we have an unnecessary and unsightly piece of trash. As Xiochi walked past a youth, a mocking voice that was loud enough for him to hear came from his side. Xiochi raised his eyebrows slightly and saw third Elder Xio Z's grandson, Xio Chengai, intently squinting ahead. An undisguisable sneer hung from the corners of his mouth, and on his face was a look of envy that he vigorously tried to hide. He said those words to the person in front of him, but even an idiot knew that he was mocking Xio Chi. At once, the sound of laughter rose from the surroundings. Each and every young disciple looked at Xyrochi with a ridiculing expression in their eyes. Brother Cheng Xi, were you talking to me just now? Xiochi's footsteps paused as he asked Zyro Chengai with a harmless smile on his face. Oh, Brother Xyrochi, you misunderstood. I was clearly talking to a piece of trash just now. For brother Xioi to ask this, does that mean you consider yourself to be a piece of trash? Xio Cheng Xi turned around and said with a smile as his gaze touched Ziaingu<unk>s beautiful snowy face. A difficult to disguise look of zeal flashed through his eyes. Oh, so that's how it was. Xyrochi nodded with sudden understanding. He then pulled Ziaingu<unk>s hand along with him. Looks like he wasn't talking about me. Kingu, my wife. Let's<unk> hurry up and return to our position. Tutt as I look at a pathetic toad dreaming about eating swan meat. I'd rather be a piece of trash that sleeps holding the swan every night. King, you my wife, what do you think? What did you say? Xio Chengai suddenly turned around, a dark expression on his face. Huh? Xioi paused and looked at him in surprise. Brother Cheng Xi, what's wrong? I was just talking about a toad, so why do you have such a strange reaction? Don't tell me that Changi has some special relationship with the toad I was talking about. You Xyro Cheng Xhi<unk>s trembling lips revealed his immense fury. Yet he couldn't think of anything else to say. King, you my wife, we had better go quickly. A toad will bite when it gets anxious. If we were bitten by this thing, wouldn't we be disgusted to death? As Zyroi talked, he pulled Zia Kingu far away. Zyro Cheng Xi<unk>s face muscles spasomed as he almost puked out blood. Chi Kingu, come over here. In the midst of the crowd, Zyrochi quickly saw Zyro lie beckoning to him with Xyro Linky by his side. He and Zia Kingu swiftly walked over. After Zia Kingu underwent Xioi's acupuncture treatment, not to mention her physique, even her face showed a great change. Ignoring her physique, her complexion had become more delicate, rosy, and luminous. However, this change of complexion held a different meaning under Xyro Li's eyes. Seeing Xyrochi clearly exude and spiritless attitude, Xyroi lowered his voice and said with a chuckle, "Chi, you're still too young. You're only half grown and your body is still developing." Concerning these matters between men and women, you should control yourself as much as possible or else it may harm your body. Ah. Xioi stared at him. After recovering, he could only nod his head in embarrassment. This I understand. In the future, I'll definitely control control. Ah, he uttered a sound of pain. The small hand held in his suddenly pricricked him mercilessly with its nail. Ziaingu turned her face away, but one could faintly see a patch of pink slowly spread across her cheeks. A a she actually blushed. Zyroi was about to quietly explain himself when he once again grimaced in pain. It was Zyol Linkxy's small hand that had fiercely pinched his left arm. Little aunt, why did you pinch me? Xiochi said as he looked at Zo Linksy, a wronged expression on his face. "Hmp," Xio Linksy pouted and also faced the other way, ignoring him in a fit of anger. "Young Master Xio has arrived." At this time, a loud and clear shout erupted from the front of the crowd. The crowd immediately quieted as everyone's eyes turned towards the source of the sound, wanting to catch a glimpse of the elegance of the Xio sex members. Not long after, a luxuriously dressed young man with a proud demeanor walked over through the crowd. Xio Mashan was not more than half a step behind him, and Xio Yunhai was in front, personally leading the way. Both his expression and posture were differential with not even a hint of disrespect. Under Xio Yunhai's guidance, Xioangjian walked up the erected platform and sat on the seat of honor in the middle. He swept his gaze over the Xyro clan members beneath him with a hotty look like an emperor overlooking his subjects. A moment later, he nodded to Zyro Yunhai to indicate that they may begin. Is this the big shot from Xyro sect? If we don't talk about anything else, his appearance is still a bit too unsightly. Aren't the genes of the great Xyro sect supposed to be formidable? A. He shouldn't be adopted, right? Xiochi muttered quietly. 100 of him can't compare with Little Chi, Xio Linkxy echoed in reply. As soon as she said that, she remembered that she was supposed to be mad at him. She once again quickly let out a hmp sound and turned her face to ignore him. Chair Zir, don't spout nonsense, Zoli said in a low voice. Oh, Xyrochi answered as he stopped talking. Is everyone from Xyro clan here? Xioangjian slowly said with halfopen eyes and a bored tone of voice. However, both his eyes were rapidly spinning about searching the crowd for the figure of the fairy he saw yesterday, as well as the girl whom Xio Yulong claimed to on par with that fairy. It has already been confirmed. Everyone is present. There won't even be one missing. Xio Yunhai said with a serious look in his face. Very good, Xio Quanji unnoded. His gaze then slanted towards the main entrance. Who are those people standing outside the door? Reporting to young master XO, they are all powerful families within floating cloud city. They've been gathered here since early this morning, hoping catch a glance of young master Xio<unk>'s elegance. Xio Yunhai replied as he half rose out of his chair. Ah, it's<unk> like that. Xyro Quangji nodded and then said with a wave of his hand, "Since they are guests, we can't let them wait outside like that. Let them come in. Having the people outside of Xyro clan witness today's matter is also a good thing. Otherwise, others may later say that I was being biased." Zyro Yunhai promptly sucked up to him. "Young Master XO is truly worthy of being the son of the sect master of the XO sect. You're this young and are already this open-minded. It's enough to make me blush with shame." Xoda quickly invite our guests in. The main entrance opened and all the powerful inhabitants of floating cloud city orderly walked in. Each and everyone with a reserved demeanor. All of them brought a heavy gift. Amongst the crowd, Xioi also saw Ziaing<unk>s father, Zia Hangi. Very good. Now we can start. Xioangjian straightened in his chair and finally assumed what could be considered a normal sitting posture as he looked down and lightly spoke. My name is Xio Quangian and I am from the Xyio sect. Regarding the great name of the XYO sect, you all should be very clear in the Blue Wind Empire. There's nothing that my Zio sect can't resolve. All of you ought to feel honored and proud because even though you are a bit weak, you can still be said to be related to the Xyro sect. The founder of the Xyro clan was the son of one of our Xyroex elders. However, although your founder was the son of an elder, he was actually born from a female servant. His status was so low it wasn't worth mentioning and his profound strength was really too lacking. As a piece of trash, he wasn't fit to remain in the XO sect. Your founder was thus banished by that elder to this place. And that's how your XO clan came into existence. Xioangjians extremely harsh words did not hide his disdain for both the entire XO clan and their founder. A few Xyroclan members scowlled upon hearing this, but no one dared to make a fuss. Zyro Quangjian was really wild. But within the Xyro clan, he truly had the right to be wild. Not to mention his earpiercing speech. Even if he had called the entire Xyro clan dogs, everyone in the Xyro clan would have to obediently listen. There definitely wouldn't be anyone who would dare to retort. It may even be possible that some would wag their tails accordingly. Before Elder Xioang died, he remembered his affection for his son and left behind a dying wish. He hoped we would find the one with the best aptitude amongst the younger generation here to bring back to the Xio sect. Xio Quanjian picked up the roster that Xio Yunhai had prepared overnight, looked all around him, and then arrogantly said, "Today I will personally check that. In a while, anyone whose name I call will come in front of me and show your profound strength. However, aptitude isn't decided by the level of your profound strength, but by your foundation and potential." Before I came here, my honorable father had me bring a batch of profound opening powder. The person selected not only will be brought back to the Xyro sect, but will also receive this profound opening powder as a reward. Good medicine can only be enjoyed by those with enough aptitude. It would only be wasted if used on the body of trash. Saying this, Xyro Quangians gaze slanted towards Xyro Yunhai. Clan Master, bring out the profound opening powder. Even though this is a gift to the Xio clan, you shouldn't have any complaints about giving this to the one with the best aptitude as a reward, right? No matter how ridiculous Xioangjians words were, Xio Yunhai still wouldn't dare to have any reservations. However, upon hearing his words, Xio Yunhai's expression all of a sudden became pale, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He didn't move to retrieve the profound opening powder, but rather stood there in a fluster. What's the matter? Xio Quangian<unk>s expression darkened. Clan Master Xio, you wouldn't be unwilling to part with the profound opening powder, right? No, no, of course not. Xio Yunhai promptly shook his head with a terrified expression. It's only only what? With a pudong sound, Xyro Yunhai immediately knelt on on one knee with both hands trembling. He said with a face full of terror, I I deserve to die. The profound opening powder that young master XO gifted us yesterday. I left it in our XYO clan's infirmary and made it clear to the person there that they must guard it well. But but this morning, the person from the infirmary suddenly ran over to tell me that the profound opening powder in the infirmary had unexpectedly unexpectedly disappeared. Hua. The crowd below immediately broke into chaos to steal the treasure brought by the Xioct who could have the nerve. Huh? Xioi frowned slightly as a burst of suspicion appeared in his heart. Based on his 10ome years understanding of Xio Yunhai, he would consider him a cautious person. Knowing his character, for him to put the treasure that the Xio sect brought in the infirmary after receiving it from them instead of keeping it on himself was a bit unreasonable. Knowing that the infirmary only had Xio goo, who had wholly devoted himself to medicine and had practically no profound strength, the infirmary could be considered the most weakly defended area within the Xio clan. Not only that, the profound opening powder was brought by the Xio sect. Even if someone craved it, at the very least, they should have waited until the people from the Xio sect left to act. Why would they unexpectedly pick such a dangerous time? Even if they stole it, would they even have a life to use it afterwards? Xyroi's entire body shook. He immediately glanced towards Xyro Linksy, only to find that Xyro Linksy also had a face full of astonishment. Noticing Xyroi's pointed look, Xyrolinky promptly shook her head forcefully to indicate that she had nothing to do with this. Xoli withdrew his gaze and inwardly took a deep sigh of relief. Wh what? Xioangji violently stood up from his seat as his expression turned incomparably dark, his body radiating a billful aura. He looked at Xio Yunhai and said fiercely, "You're saying that there's actually someone who would steal the profound opening powder. Your humble servant couldn't protect it. I request young master Xio administer punishment." Xio Yunhai lowered his head, a look of shame and fear across his entire face. "This is ridiculous." Xioangji violently took a breath as his chest heaved. His complexion became more and more dark. He had evidently been extremely angered. Someone actually dared to steal our gift to the Xio clan. Good. Very good. I've really underestimated this floating cloud city. You all are actually quite bold. Xioangians anger and killing intent had extended to almost the entire Xio clan. This caused everyone's spines to shiver and their hearts to convulse. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly and unable to cope with their panic, hung their heads low for fear that Xyroang would look at them. Xiochi half closed his eyes, his gaze directly on Xyroangjian<unk>s eyes. A short while later, he poked Xyro Li and asked in a small voice. Grandfather, the clan master didn't offend this Xyroang yesterday, right? Xoli was startled, then shook his head. Zyro Yunhai was always prudent. He shouldn't have gone that far. Then that's strange. Xiochi rubbed his chin and then said quietly, "This Xyouang's anger is clearly fake. If the clan master had offended him and he had planned to steal it himself and then blame the clan master, then that would make sense. If that's not the case, don't tell me this Xyroangjian is acting out a monkeykey's show by himself. Watch your mouth." Xy didn't understand the meaning of his words and so quietly warned him. Xioangjian<unk>s eyes became sinister and his expression darkened to the color of a storm cloud. Yesterday, when I took out the profound opening powder, there were only members of the Xio clan around. I don't think that you Zyro clan people would be stupid enough to let the fact that you've obtained a high-grade medicine spread to the ears of outsiders. In addition, your Zyro clan's defensive abilities can't be considered weak in Floating Cloud City. If someone wanted to break it, it wouldn't be easy. Then the thief should be from your XO clan. Xioangjian<unk>s words caused the expression of all of the Xio clan members to change. The sound of whispers grew even louder. Xio Yunhai also quickly nodded. Right. Young Master Xio sees clearly. After I knew the profound opening powder had been stolen, I also thought that it was stolen by someone from our Xio clan. The infirmary's XO is almost 60 years old and is unconcerned with worldly affairs. He simply wouldn't have any kind of desire for the profound opening powder. So, it shouldn't be him that stole it. Everyone else should probably be viewed with suspicion. HMPH. The insignificant Zyro clan simply isn't worth mentioning in the eyes of our Zyro sect. Any lowly person from our Zyro sect could single-handedly wipe out your entire clan. This time, we graced you with our presence and treked thousands of Lee to your Zo clan. that gave you an immense amount prestige and was a great show of kindness. Yet, you instead gave me such a large surprise. This is practically a slap to the face of our Xyro sect. A slap to the face of the Xyro sect. This incomparably strange and large accusation caused Xyro Yunhai's face to immediately turn ashen. Zyro Quangians eyes were like that of a viper, sweeping from one face to another. Everyone touched by his gaze lowered their head as if trying to avoid being struck by lightning. No one dared to look him in the face. However, this absolutely didn't mean that Xyro Quangians eyes had were incredibly penetrating or that his aura was that fierce. It was only because he was backed by the enormous Xyro sect. Xyrochi's gaze turned to Zyro Yunhai's face, and his expression became even more downcast. He said in low voice that only he could hear. This Xyro Yunhai's demeanor is also unexpectedly fake. What exactly do they want to do? In Xyrochi's two lifetimes worth of memories, particularly those from the life on Azure Cloud continent, he had experienced countless designs of good and evil and skirted past the boundary between life and death multiple times. The amount of people he had encountered was even more innumerable, from the most ordinary of people to the overlords of the world. Not even a profound practitioner that was hundreds of years old would necessarily be able to compare to the viciousness seen by his eyes. Xyro Quangian once again swept his gaze around. His tone suddenly became mild. Forget it. Even though it's truly regrettable, I can't be bothered to get upset with you people from this small place. The person who stole the profound opening powder. I'll give you 15 seconds to obediently come out and hand over the profound opening powder. I may show you mercy for the first offense. If you continue to be obstinate, then don't blame for me for being impolite. Zyro, start counting. After Zyro Quangji unfinished speaking, he let out a cold snort and sat back down on his seat. The black-d dressed young man on his left stepped forward and started the countdown in a low voice. Xio Yunhai immediately turned around and said in a loud voice, "The vermin that stole the profound opening powder, "Did you hear that?" Young Master X is magnanimously tolerant to give you a way out, "quickly mend your ways and come apologize. If not, not to mention Young Master X, the entire Xyro clan will never forgive you." 12 11 10 9 The black clothed man called Xioba continued to count down. Everyone in the XO clan turned to look at their neighbors, one after another, guessing at who was reckless enough to dare steal something the Xio sect had brought. Although Xioangjians mouth had uttered, "Mercy!" from his expression, no one believed that they would earn his mercy after voluntarily admitting guilt. "41 times up!" Xioba's voice dropped off and he then stepped back. Xyro Quangjian once again stood up, his gaze dark and cruel as he sneered. I already gave you a chance. Since you don't know a good thing when you see it, don't blame me for being ruthless after I catch you. Xio Ju? Yes. In the wake of Xroan's shout, another black clothed young man stepped forward and then immediately raised his palm. A whirlpool of profound strength began to condense in his palm. XOC clan master. The profound opening powder was stolen with the black box, right? Yes, they were stolen together. Xio Yunhai nodded. His face revealed a suspicious look, as if he didn't understand why he was asking this question. Very good. On the black box containing the profound opening powder is a mark of our Xioex unique profound strength, the eagle mark. As long as we use our Xio sex unique profound strength, we can very quickly determine the whereabouts of every eagle mark in the vicinity. As soon as Xio Kungji unfinished speaking, Xioju<unk>s hand suddenly lowered as a growl of its there escaped from his lips. His body then turned into a gale as he rushed towards his right like lightning. His speed was exceedingly fast. In a blink of an eye, he had disappeared from everyone's sight. Chuckle, "It seems we've already found it." Xioangji sneered, a deep sense of self-satisfaction flashing through the depth of his eyes, as if he was very pleased with his own performance. Wonderful, as expected of the Xyro sect, not one drop of water can leak out. Xio Yunhai's face also revealed a happy expression which then darkened once again. He solemnly said, "Young Master XO, the nature of this matter is too vile. Not only did it provoke young master Zyro<unk>'s wrath, but also caused our Xyro clan to lose quite a bit of face. So no matter who the thief is, even if it's my son, young master Zyro need not have any apprehension. You must severely punish them. Hmp? Of course, no one who has offended my Xyro sect has met a good end. At this time, a gust of strong wind blew over. Xioju had already hurried back, his hands holding a wooden box. The eagle mark on the wooden box was still faintly radiating light. This wooden box really was the box holding the profound opening powder that Xyroang had given Xyro Yunhai yesterday. Young master, I found it. Xioju delivered the wooden box into Xioangjian<unk>s grasp and then stepped back without a sound. All the whispers stopped. The surroundings became so quiet that even the drop of a needle could be heard. The atmosphere turned completely cold. Everyone widened their eyes and held their breath, waiting to see who was the one that had enough courage to dare steal the profound opening powder. They could all guess how tragic the fate of that person would be. "Z, Xioju, where did you find this box?" Xioangjian asked with a sneer. "The 66th Courtyard under the owner's pillow." Xioju clearly replied with an expressionless face. "The 66th Courtyard?" Everyone's gaze all at once converged in one direction, unbelievingly staring at the girl who looked as if she had been petrified. Upon hearing the words, "The 66th Courtyard," Xio Lynxy was stunned on the spot. Seeing pair after pair of eyes turned towards her, she stepped back and hysterically shook her head, crying out involuntarily, "It's not me. It's not me.
