"Now?" Lin Yun furrowed his eyebrows. He could already feel that he was close to Body Training Rank 6, but he was not totally sure whether it was possible for him to reach that rank or not right now.
"Yes."
"I'm not sure…"
Wenren Yu stood up and took a bowl of medicine. "This will help you."
"Thank you!"
Drinking the medicine, Lin Yun then focused his attention to absorb the Qi in the world. He completely focused his attention to his body as he sensed himself grew stronger. It took some time for him to be able to sense the change.
Bang!
Lin Yun officially entered Body Training Rank 6.
Watching from the side, Lin Xiao nodded with satisfied smile. While Body Training Rank 6 might be still low, it was still the best that they could do. The higher their rank, the more possibility for them to protect themselves better.
"Now, what's your plan, Brother?"
"I'll wait." Lin Xiao looked at the door. "I need to figure out what's their goal first."
Wenren Yu arched his eyebrows. "It might be dangerous."
"Better than knowing nothing."
Lin Xiao hated the thought that he was targeted even though he didn't know anything and didn't do anything. He was only sneaking around with Wenren Yu to find out what the three representatives talked about regarding Taiyi Sect, yet when he returned, Su Han had come to search for problem.
He wouldn't believe that Su Han acted on impulse.
After talking with each other a bit more, they chose to rest.
The next day.
Lin Yun and Wenren Yu had already moved the plants to the lake. They were currently thinking whether they should stay in the house or not. After all, there was possibility that there would be people looking at them.
"How about the mountain?" Wenren Yu asked. If he was not wrong, there were also a place where they could stay up there. It was not as comfortable as their home, but it was certainly better than nothing.
"Near the place where we search for plants?"
"Yes?"
"Can you climb, Yun?"
"I'm not that weak, Brother." Lin Yun rolled his eyes. Sometimes, he felt as if his brother treated him as disabled. He was perfectly fine, so climbing the steep mountain shouldn't be that much of a problem to him.
Lin Xiao looked at Lin Yun with worry but after some time, he sighed and let them go. There was no need for him to worry so much.
As Lin Xiao stayed not far from his house, he was thinking of training again. But at this time, a shadow came from the forest. From the direction it was coming from, Lin Xiao could guess that it was coming from the village.
"Elder Xu."
Elder Xu smiled when he heard Lin Xiao greeted him. Looking at Lin Xiao's appearance, there was no longer any mark of wound on Lin Xiao's body. It was only a day, yet Lin Xiao had already recovered.
In fact, Lin Xiao was not really wounded. Except for some bruises when he blocked the attack, the wound was not that serious. He only needed to drink the medicine that Wenren Yu prepared for him and then rested for a day to recover to his peak condition again.
"You look well."
"I had enough rest, yesterday. Thank you for your concern, Elder Xu."
Elder Xu looked at Lin Xiao up and down. Once they were above Body Training Rank 5, it was harder to see the changes from outside because the change occurred inside. Even now, Elder Xu was not that certain about what rank Lin Xiao was in.
To be able to withstand Su Hei's blow would make them think of him as Body Training Rank 7.
However, the power that Lin Xiao showed yesterday was still that of Body Training Rank 6.
Lin Xiao didn't really like to be watched like this by Elder Xu. He looked at Elder Xu and arched his eyebrows. "Elder Xu, is there anything wrong?"
"I'm coming here because I want to ask something."
"Ask what, Elder Xu?"
"What do you think of my daughter, Xu Qin?"
"…. What?"
"What do you think of my daughter, Xu Qin?" Elder Xu repeated the same question patiently.
On the other hand, Lin Xiao felt like his brain had blown up. While he had interacted with Xu Qin a few times in the past, he never had any favorable impression of her. Besides, Xu Qin also hated him wholeheartedly.
He was not that stupid to ask for humiliation by trying to get close to Xu Qin in the past.
After all, he still knew his place and naturally didn't wish to invoke mocking to his head.
"Elder Xu, is there any intention behind asking the question?" Lin Xiao asked back.
Elder Xu smiled. "I'm thinking that you're not that bad of a youngster. Your courage and power showed that you might achieve big in the future."
At this moment, Lin Xiao was doing whatever he could to stop his face from turning black. He never thought that his performance would attract Elder Xu's eyes much less the fact that Elder Xu would approach him like this.
Didn't Elder Xu always wanted his daughter to get close with Su Han in the past?
Lin Xiao always thought that these two annoying people were a match made in Heaven. They were perfectly good together and should just stay together forever. Now… Elder Xu wanted him to get close with his daughter?
No wonder that Su Han attacked him. Now everything was clear. A man's pride would hurt if the woman he has been coveting was now given to another man. They wouldn't be able to accept this arrangement.
But…
NO WAY IN HELL!
"I can't do that, Elder Xu."
