My weak body was supported by Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue. Q-Sword’s father said that he prepared a huge feast for me but he wasn’t a true cultivator. Q-Sword understood and said, “Father, Li Xiao Yao doesn’t need to eat, what he needs the most is to sleep. He is just too tired.”
“En, okay then, let’s have a huge meal once you are awake.”
I smiled, “Thank you uncle.”
…
The room the Beichen Family prepared for me was beside Lin Wan Er and it was cleaned up. Even the washing basin had a few face wash products which were the same as the ones I used in Hangzhou. It should be done by the little girlfriend. But Wan Er actually had time to prepare these for me so how long was I inside?
I walked in and closed the door. Wan Er, Dong Cheng and the old man remained while Q-Sword and the others left.
I couldn’t help but asked, “How long was I inside?”
The old man raised three fingers and said, “Three days.”
“What?”
I was shocked and lay on the bed, “I thought that it wouldn’t be more than a day..”
The old man smiled, “When you were in meditation, time is just a concept to you. Kid, I spent so much effort to persuade him to help you, so did you breakthrough?”
“You couldn’t say that but I have obtained the Blazing Sun mid tier power.”
The old man was shocked, “You learned Flame Body Protection?”
“En.” I nodded.
The old man clapped and smiled, “As expected from my kid, come come come, show it to us!”
Lin Wan Er frowned, “Grandpa Lin, Li Xiao Yao is so tired, can we wait until he is awake?”
Dong Cheng Yue said too, “Right, stop torturing him…”
The old man laughed, “Look kid, there are two girls that care for you so much, how envious… But I don’t accept that. Don’t act dead, come and show your Flame Body Protection!”
I was speechless and stood in the empty space. I pushed Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue’s hands away as I didn’t want to burn them. I sucked in a deep breath and the short rest helped me to recover around 5% of my strength. The Blazing Sun Power rotated around my body and my body started to fly in mid air. Actually, I learned this from Beichen Guan but I just didn’t show it. Blazing Sun experts could fly for a short time but not very long. The reason why I was hanging in mid air was because I didn’t want to burn their floor.
“Scoff!”
Many arced-shaped flame armor pieces formed around my arms. I closed my eyes and formed a maintenance and control relationship with the armor. Shortly after, the armor pieces exploded and expanded. In just 3 seconds 20 pieces wrapped around me and they were around 10 millimeters away from my clothes, protecting me within.
I looked at the old man and smiled, “Is this okay?”
He smiled, “Not bad, retract it and rest. You look a little tired, be careful that the two girls stop liking you!”
Instantly, Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue’s faces flushed red. Although they often teased me with such things,
but they were obviously much weaker than this old man. After all, most girls only liked to say such things to guys they liked or they would just be sluts. Dong Cheng Yue and Lin Wan Er were obviously not interested in the old man.
After the old man walked out, Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue sat on the bed to look at me. Lin Wan Er held a new set of clothes. The old man definitely told her to buy it. He knew that my clothes would be burned and that was indeed the case. The two sleeves were ripped apart and it was riddled in holes. My shirt and pants weren’t any better as one of the sides was burnt. Half of the white shoes were melted and stuck to the socks.
When I tried to pull off my sleeves, Dong Cheng Yue bent down to help me remove my shoes. Lin Wan Er rested on my chest and helped me to remove the buttons. This felt so satisfying, two beautiful girls didn’t bother about the smell and were helping me.
When I sat there awkwardly with just my underwear, Lin Wan Er pulled Dong Cheng Yue’s hand and smiled, “Okay let’s go, we can’t see him bathe right?”
Dong Cheng Yue giggled, “I do want to see, will you let me?”
“What do you think? Let’s go back to level!”
“Okay…”
…
They smiled and walked out while I went to shower. My sweat was evaporated by the Blazing Sun Armor and formed a black layer on my body. If I didn’t wash them off I wouldn’t sleep at all as I would only hear crackling sounds.
After learning the secrets of the mid tier Blazing Sun Realm, I felt much better. Beichen Family’s back garden was naturally safe as the tower had the strongest old man in the world. No one would dare to find trouble here, so naturally, I had a good sleep.
…
I opened my eyes from the chicken sounds and I had slept from night to dawn, I had slept for a total of 12 hours. This old man actually raised chickens in his backyard. I even suspected that his life was just feeding fish, watering flowers etc. Actually, such a life was good, at least he had a peaceful time. As for me, I was worried about those enemies hidden in the darkness but that helped to push me to improve.
Morning, I brought Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue to stroll the streets and buy a new pair of shoes. Actually, Q-Sword wanted to head out with us but Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue rejected him. Q-Sword was really handsome in real life. Although I looked good, but they were worried that I would feel threatened. Their thoughts touched me once more.
Afternoon, Beichen Guan held a feast to treat us. This old master was dressed in a robe and he gave off a celestial feel. Our old man Lin Cheng didn’t have such an aura and he looked more like a city old man that played mahjong and did taichi on the streets.
Beichen Guan smiled, “Feng Er.”
Q-Sword said respectfully, “En, Old Master, I am here.”
“Look at Li Xiao Yao, he is so young but has already reached Blazing Sun Realm. Now he has understood all the secrets in the mid tier. You need to work hard. I accepted that your father didn’t want to train, he was not talented either but you are different. You trained since young so you need to cultivate well. I don’t hope that you can keep up with Li Xiao Yao but you must not lose to those juniors in Tang Sect. I heard that have a disciple called Tang Qi who is at peak Energy Controlling Realm, is there such a thing?”
Q-Sword nodded, “Yes.”
I laughed, “Old Master you don’t have to worry about that, Tang Qi is under Beichen Feng, he is no different from a subordinate.”
“Oh? What is going on?” Beichen Guan asked.
Q-Sword was awkward and explained, “Old Master do you remember the game you introduced me? Destiny, the best room to cultivate the hearts of people. I met Tang Qi, he is an Elder in my guild and is also my subordinate…”
“Oh…” Beichen Guan said, “Actually my old friend Lin Cheng introduced the game to me and told me to push you to cultivate. I don’t know your world, but… Since Li Xiao Yao could break through in game, you can too. Work hard.”
“Yes Old Master, Feng Er understands.”
No one expected the Hero Mound Guild Leader who was so proud and powerful in Tian Ling City to have such a polite moment. But it was true that having an old member in the family was like having a treasure. I wanted to laugh. Beichen Guan was indeed the most precious treasure in the whole family. As long as he was here, Beichen family would have a place right?
…
We were planning to leave after eating but Old Master Beichen Guan kept us for an hour for me to spar with Q-Sword. This was a spar between youngsters.
It had been a long time since we last fought and under the Old Master’s teachings, Q-Sword improved quickly. He was mid tier previously but he was now at Peak Energy Controlling Realm. However, the gap in strength was huge and I only used 20% of my strength to beat him.
But to return the favor, I was still a good sparring partner. An hour passed and Q-Sword’s fighting gear was covered in holes. Bruises also appeared on his arm and face. Only when one was being beaten up could one grow. That was something I learned and it was a good point to be used here.
In the end, Q-Sword was covered in bruises but he was still grateful. Old Master Beichen was violent and if he felt that Q-Sword was falling behind he might be vicious. When the time comes he might not only get bruised. When faced with such an expert that knew his place like me, Q-Sword probably was excited.
…
Afternoon, we rode a plane back to Hangzhou.
It was 4 when we reached home. Tang Qi was anxious at home and he only calmed down when he saw Dong Cheng Yue. It was late so we ate dinner before heading online.
“Shua!”
The moment I entered the game, I got a notification—
“Ding!”
