"Whispers in the Moonlight: Xiao Xun'er's Unseen Sentinel"

"Pretentious!"

Xiao Xun'er's voice carried a touch of coldness.

Ling Ying was startled and quickly knelt on the ground. This was the first time Xiao Xun'er scolded him. If he said he wasn't afraid, he would be lying.

"He kindly helped me warm and nourish my bones, and you want to steal his magical method. What's the difference between you and a thief?

"But miss..."

"Don't forget, you are the Dou Emperor of the Ancient Clan, and you must consider the face of the Ancient Clan in every move you make!"

Xiao Xun'er's tone suddenly turned cold, and her eyes were like stars in the sky, deep and enchanting.

"If you dare to touch him, go to the clan yourself to receive punishment!"

"The subordinates dare not."

...

The moon is like a silver disc, and the sky is full of stars.

On the cliff's top, Xiao Yan lay on the ground, holding a blade of grass in his mouth, chewing lightly, letting the faint bitterness spread across his mouth...

He raised his somewhat pale palms and covered them in front of his eyes, looking through the spaces between his fingers at the huge silver moon in the sky.

"Why did this guy, who is usually boring, suddenly sneak into Xun'er's room to help her warm and nourish her bones?" Thinking about the scene that just happened, Xiao Yan sighed softly and lazily withdrew his palms, supporting his head with his hands, his eyes still somewhat dazed...

"Does this guy like Xun'er?" A murmur suddenly came from the young man's mouth.

The next moment, he shook his head again.

"He's just a kid. Even if he really likes Xun'er, he shouldn't think of helping her warm and nourish her bones. Besides, Xiao Bai has mediocre talents and can't gather fighting Qi.

"Moreover, I don't know why, but his massage techniques always seem very familiar to me... I just can't remember them."

Suddenly, Xiao Yan sat up and said seriously, "Is he also a time traveler?"

"It seems... I have to go to the martial arts hall tomorrow to explore his true identity!"

...

The next morning.

Xiao Clan, martial arts hall.

Xiao Yan arrived here early. Under normal circumstances, he rarely comes to the martial arts hall. After all, the teacher here has been taught by his father.

But after waiting for a long time, Xiao Bai was not seen.

The third elder in charge of today's teaching looked at Xiao Yan in the hall and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction, saying loudly, "Due to the extreme proliferation of Dou Qi, countless ways to cultivate Dou Qi have also evolved.

After summarizing the statistics, Dou Qi Continent divides skill levels into 4 from highest to lowest: Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang!

Each level is divided into three stages: beginner, intermediate, and advanced.

The level of the fighting skills you practice is also the key to determining your future achievements. For example, people who practice intermediate-level Xuan skills are naturally better than those at the same level practicing advanced-level Huang skills..."

In the face of the third elder's explanation, Xiao Yan was distracted.

Because Xiao Bai didn't come to class at all!

Although the martial arts hall doesn't require every child from the Xiao Clan to come every day, people like Xiao Bai, who have no family background or expert guidance, will definitely attend classes every day.

Moreover, as far as he knew, Xiao Bai used to come to classes every day, but after what happened yesterday, he didn't show up.

"This guy! Something is really wrong!"

Xiao Yan frowned slightly, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind. After hesitating for a moment, he left the martial arts hall and headed straight to Xiao Bai's residence.

Xiao Bai was an orphan. Shortly after his birth, his parents died in a battle to protect the family.

Although Xiao Bai received a pension from his family and had someone to take care of him, no one really cared about him, and the place where he lived was also very remote.

As for the actual pension, the clan deacons had taken it away long ago under the pretext of conserving it on his behalf.

"It should be right here."

Xiao Yan looked at the small wooden house in front of him, feeling that this place was extremely lonely.

Through the window, Xiao Bai can be seen lying on the wooden bed, soundly asleep.

Xiao Yan was dumbfounded.

Is this guy so lazy!?

Only those with great perseverance can truly become strong!

"Maybe it's just a coincidence!"

Xiao Yan shook his head, then turned around and left, not forgetting to mutter, "Worrying is useless."

The moment Xiao Yan left.

Xiao Bai slowly opened his eyes and looked in the direction Xiao Yan had just left.

"Did you really notice me?"

After merging a thousandth part of the ancient sacred body, Xiao Bai's five senses improved tremendously.

Xiao Bai noticed Xiao Yan when he came to see him.

However, he was indeed sleeping in late. After all, his main task now was to help Xiao Xun'er warm and nourish her bones a thousand times.

After lazily stretching, he went back to sleep.

I don't know if it was due to the fusion of the ancient sacred body or the excessive consumption last night, which made Xiao Bai very sleepy now.

At the same time, not far away.

Xiao Yan, who had just left, returned and looked at Xiao Bai in the cabin again.

"It seems he's really sleeping."

...

Over the dark night sky, the silver moon hangs high, casting a faint light.

The earth is covered with a layer of silver veil, appearing extremely mysterious.

After the hustle and bustle of the day, the city of Wutan fell into darkness and silence.

A figure moved skillfully through the Xiao Clan's mansion and entered the Jade Immortal Pavilion.

After confirming that Xiao Xun'er in the wooden house had fallen asleep, Xiao Bai used all his strength to awaken the fighting spirit and began to warm and nourish the bones.

Several times during this period,

Xiao Bai was almost startled by Xiao Xun'er's snorting.

But everything went well.

After dozens of minutes, it was all over.

At that moment, Xiao Bai was already sweating profusely, and his fighting spirit was exhausted.

Ring!

[Congratulations to the host! The completion progress of the mission has increased to 0.2%.]

[You receive a reward: Fusion of the Ancient Sacred Body 0.2%.]

Shortly after, the scene in front of him blurred again.

He appeared again in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!

A mysterious force descended from the celestial path, enveloped his body, and then spread to his limbs and bones, tempering his body!

A moment later.

Xiao Bai can feel it clearly!

The spiritual platform is clear and transparent, the acupuncture points all over the body are open, and the compatibility between the physical body and the surrounding spiritual energy has reached its peak!

This feeling.

How wonderful!

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

But in reality, only a second has passed.

"Today's task is complete, finish the set, and let's go!"

Xiao Bai applauded in his heart.

As he silently departed, Xiao Yan emerged from the shadow of the courtyard with mixed emotions.

"Xiao Xun'er is the person I want by my side!"

"No matter who crosses my path, they will all have to pay the price!" Xiao Yan's face darkened, but there was a chill in his eyes.

He will never allow anyone to mistreat Xiao Xun'er!

Just as he was about to catch up to Xiao Bai, give him a stern lesson, and warn him, a cold voice came from the wooden house.

"I wonder why Brother Xiao Yan barged into Xun'er's room late at night!"
