Chapter 23: Plotting to Seize the Ancient Emperor's Jade of Tuoshen

  Xiao Mei's mysterious boxing technique was revealed, and Xiao Xing Meng and Xiao Mei didn't seem to be hiding like Xiao Yan did. They quickly explained that this boxing technique was only occasionally obtained by Xiao Xing Meng's parents in the market, and they handed it over to the family's boxing technique. Soon, everything calmed down.

  Xiao Xing Meng did not like to draw attention to himself, he was more enthusiastic about hiding behind the scenes, cultivating one by one apprentice and grandson, pulling them into his own camp, secretly allowing himself to develop an invincible force.

  Silent and nameless, just right for doing things in secret. Perhaps like Blackbeard from "One Piece", rising from zero bounty to one of the Four Emperors in a short span of years is Xiao Xing Meng's goal.

  In the original work, a space channel will appear in the future, Di Benyuan's aura will return to the mainland, and advancing to Dou Emperor will no longer be his own trump card. Although he has confidence that by then he will also have

  Beyond everyone's strength, but as a hidden BOSS, it's still relatively easy and carefree. Putting oneself in the open doesn't have any benefits, being an open BOSS might get pushed down someday.

  Perhaps now Xun'er will investigate herself due to Xiao Mei's strength? However, this is destined to be a futile effort. What she has shown is only the Eight Trigrams of Qi, and indeed, she has the identity of Xiao Xing Meng, but it's just that her "luck" has gotten her some things.

  Not to mention that Xiao Xing Meng was just a bit suspicious, even if he showed unusual strength, Xun Er had no way to deal with him. Xiao Xing Meng's identity was clear and obvious. And Xun Er couldn't directly take action against him, after all, she wouldn't want to expose her own identity either. As fellow spies, how could Xiao Xing Meng not understand her thoughts?

  And she hasn't done anything to her brother Xiao Yan yet, although secretly she has done a lot of bad things to him.

  Today is the day to enter the "Dou Qi Ge", accompanied by Xiao Xing Meng's Xiao Mei, wearing a gorgeous red dress, with a slightly tight waistband, perfectly outlining her slender waist, and the seductive curves of her chest and hips.

  According to Xiao Mei's current strength, she naturally opened the protective light screen with ease. However, Xiao Xing Meng wouldn't let her practice even a high-level Huang-stage technique, but practicing a low-level Di-stage technique would be too conspicuous. So he took out a set of advanced Xuan-stage techniques for that little girl to practice, and had to ask her to keep it a secret. They could modify and refine other techniques later. Of course, they would wait until she became a Dou Zhe before "accidentally" giving them to her. For now, let her just have this high-level Huang-stage technique.

  With a wave of his hand, he broke through the light curtain and found that there was nothing much to do with Xiao Mei. Looking at the people around him who were still fighting against the light curtain, Xiao Xing Meng decided to leave first with Xiao Mei.

  Suddenly, a voice came from behind: "Xiao Meng brother, Xiao Mei sister, you've also broken through the light curtain so quickly?"

  Only saw Xiao Yan and Xun Er walking side by side, Xun Er smiled faintly, her appearance and temperament were indeed a few points better than Xiao Mei's. But in Xun Er's lively and clever eyes, there was a hint of vigilance towards Xiao Xing Meng.

  Xun'er had secretly investigated Xiao Xing Meng, but found nothing. However, it was strange that Xiao Xing Meng would sometimes lose his trail, citing going out to explore as the reason, which was barely believable. But his mastery of the Mystic Stage fighting technique, could it really be just a coincidence?

  Noticing Xun Er's wary expression, Xiao Xing Meng pretended not to notice and returned a courtesy with his hands clasped together. He chuckled and said: "Haha, still can't compare to Xiao Yan and Xun Er, but these light screens are really too weak. I reckon the Profound Realm's fighting skills could easily break through them."

  The people around who were fighting with their light screens stopped and looked back with a jealous expression, it's all of you four who can use the Mystic Stage combat skills now, easy for you to say!

  Xiao Yan was also speechless for a moment, then continued to say: "Actually, we are currently looking for some people to practice our battle experience, but... so I hope Brother and Sister can try with me and Xun'er."

  It seems that Xiao Yan, this good martial arts enthusiast, also wants to test his own limits. However, the gap in their combat experience is too great, and they are still in the initial stages of learning. Even if he suppresses himself to the 8th stage of Dou Zhi Qi and Xuan Ji Dou technique, it would be no problem for him to take on Xun Er and Xiao Yan when they go all out. Moreover, Xun Er can't even clearly use the Golden Emperor's Flame Heaven and some ancient clan techniques. Since he doesn't want to beat them into a pulp and expose himself, it's better to just run away first.

  "Alright, I still have something to do, let Xiao Mei accompany you for a bit, I'm in a hurry and will leave first." However, Xiao Xing Meng didn't plan on pretending to be stupid and getting beaten up. Anyway, Xiao Mei, who was similar to Xiao Yan in terms of her good martial arts skills, was also eager to fight with Xiao Yan. Last time she missed the opportunity because of Xiao Ning, but this time she wouldn't let it slip away.

  .................

  After the selection of Dou Qi Gong Fa, the entire family seemed to have suddenly become much emptier. Those young clan members with Dou Qi below seven segments were gradually being transferred out of the family and assigned to various industries within the family for cultivation and learning. Meanwhile, the outstanding clan members who obtained the Gong Fa had also begun to focus on diligent practice in order to cultivate the Dou Qi Gong Fa in their hands as quickly as possible.

  In such peaceful days, two months' time has quietly slipped away like flowing water, making it hard for people to notice.

  These two months, Xiao Mei often sparred with Xun Er and Xiao Yan. Although she was somewhat similar to them in the past, Xiao Mei's innate talent was still quite different from the other two. At first, she was only slightly inferior to Xiao Yan, but later on, she gradually couldn't keep up. On the other hand, Xiao Xing Meng didn't make a move for these two months, always making excuses that he had something to attend to, and later on, he often disappeared (went to train new disciples and practice Black Water).

  Not long after, Xiao Yan upgraded to the 9th rank and advanced to Dou Zhe. He sold Ling Ye again, learned alchemy to counter Liu Xi, abandoned Jia Lie Ao, and killed Liu Xi with Xun Er. This caused a great commotion in Wu Tan City. Xun Er also shifted her vigilance from Xiao Xing Meng to Yao Lao. On the other hand, there was no new news from Hun Tian Temple, and the new disciple Ye Kan successfully broke through to Dou Zhe Qi 7th rank.

  The economic confrontation between the two major families in Wutan City ended with the victory of the Xiao family, while the Gali family, as the loser, rapidly contracted its power and could no longer regain its former glory. After nearly a week of intense discussion in Wutan City, people who were eager for novelty began to shift their attention to another major event - the enrollment of Canaan Academy.

  The enrollment of the Canaan Academy is about to begin, and Xiao Yan and his friends are about to leave here for the Canaan Academy. Xiao Xing Meng's goal, naturally, is not to pass any exams, but the ancient emperor jade left by Xiao Zhan to Xiao Yan.

  For this, even if it's just pretending, he still has to go test it out, or else he wouldn't be able to seize the limelight with his A, B, C grades, and would rather just barely pass.

  If Xiao Yan were to hand over the Ancient Emperor's Jade now, his tribe would not be attacked by the Soul Temple, and his father would not suffer. It seems like he is doing a good deed? I wonder if the Soul Tribe will still bear a grudge against Xiao Yan in the future? After all, this kid is really easy to offend others.

  And the new apprentice, left some elixirs and lower-level fighting skills to Ye Kan, then let him go be a mercenary to train himself. The "Luohan Play Heaven Technique" type of self-torturing skill, actual combat is the best catalyst.
