Chapter 4, Xiao Mei is Greatly Shocked
"Second Brother, he caused me to become like this, why not kill him? Why make him accept me as a disciple?!"
At this moment, Xiao Yan was filled with anger.
For the past three years, he had transformed from a genius into a good-for-nothing, all thanks to this old man in front of him.
How could he not be angry?
"Little Yanzi, if you kill him directly, who will compensate you for your losses over the past three years? Don't forget, the assessment is in a few days. This person's strength is quite good, he can help you recover your strength quickly, which is better than cultivating by yourself."
Xiao Li patiently explained, and as he spoke, he looked at Yao Chen.
"Yao Chen, within five days, you should be able to help my brother escape the predicament of three segments of Dou Qi, right?"
"I wouldn't dare to say anything else, but getting him to Four-Segment Dou Qi within five days is a piece of cake."
Yao Chen couldn't help but feel a little proud.
After all, this was his strong suit.
"If not, I'll burn you to ashes!" Xiao Yan said fiercely.
"Alright, Little Yanzi, then you should follow this senior and cultivate well. Don't worry too much," Xiao Li said.
He had no intention of snatching Yao Chen.
After all, he had a system himself, which was a thousand times more useful than Yao Chen.
It was better to leave Yao Chen to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan with Yao Chen and Xiao Yan without Yao Chen were worlds apart!
Xiao Yan had the potential to become a Dou Di.
By then, both brothers would become Dou Di.
What Ancient Clan or Soul Clan wouldn't obediently bow down?
"Alright."
Although he felt a little resentful inside, Xiao Yan still put the ring back on his hand.
His Second Brother's words wouldn't harm him, right?
"Alright, I won't disturb your cultivation anymore. Little Yanzi, remember to cultivate well."
Having finished guiding Xiao Yan, Xiao Li turned and left, letting Xiao Yan cultivate well...
"Brother Li~"
As soon as Xiao Li came out from the back mountain, he heard a soft, sweet cry.
He looked back and saw a young girl walking towards him cheerfully.
The girl was very pretty and charming, with a delicate face that carried a hint of both allure and purity. These two seemingly contradictory qualities, when combined in her, created a unique charm.
"It's Mei'er, is something wrong?" Xiao Li showed a warm smile.
Xiao Mei quickly came before Xiao Li, her small face showing some nervousness and anticipation.
"Um, I wonder if Brother Li has time... to guide me in my cultivation."
"Of course!" Xiao Li dotingly patted the girl's head.
"Really? Thank you, Brother Li!"
The girl's face flushed with excitement.
"Let's go."
Soon, the two arrived at the Xiao Family's practice courtyard.
At this time, there weren't many people in the courtyard, only two or three, and they were all tidying up and preparing to leave.
"Mei'er, what do you want to cultivate?"
"I recently learned a 'Clear Wind Sword Art,' but no matter how I practice, I feel like I can't grasp the essentials, so I wanted to ask Brother Li for guidance." Xiao Mei blinked her bright eyes.
"Sure, why don't you demonstrate it first, and I'll see where you're lacking."
"Okay."
Xiao Mei nodded slightly, took an iron sword from the weapon rack nearby, and began to demonstrate.
The sword art danced like the wind, combined with the girl's graceful posture, it was quite pleasing to the eye.
After a round of practice, Xiao Mei sheathed her sword and said, "Brother Li, what do you think?"
"Hmm, I can roughly tell, your Dou Qi circulation isn't very smooth. Come, I'll teach you."
Xiao Li walked behind Xiao Mei, grasped the girl's wrist from behind, and their bodies naturally pressed close.
Thump!
Thump!!
Xiao Mei felt her heart beating so fast, so nervous.
'Brother Li and I... are so close.'
She was completely distracted from cultivating, her hand movements entirely guided by Xiao Li, without any thoughts of her own.
"Mei'er, why are you so absent-minded? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
Xiao Li's gentle voice sounded in her ear, making Xiao Mei, who had just snapped back to reality, immediately blush.
"Brother Li, I-I'm sorry. I've already remembered the essentials!"
"It's alright, as long as you remember."
"Then, then if there's nothing else, I'll leave first. Thank you, Brother Li."
The girl, filled with shyness, rushed away quickly, not caring about her image.
Watching her departing figure, Xiao Li's nose still retained the faint fragrance of the girl's body, and a faint smile played on his lips.
"Little girl, falling so quickly isn't good."
The Innate Face Nurturing Technique he cultivated came with an inherent attraction to the opposite sex.
Coupled with the years he had spent in the Xiao Family, acting as a 'gentle and caring big brother' figure.
It was no wonder Xiao Mei couldn't resist his charm.
However, Xiao Mei was still too young, and Xiao Li was afraid she couldn't handle it, so he temporarily took no action towards her.
"Still, I should go see Yu'er."
Even though he was still reluctant to act on Xiao Mei.
But the guidance in cultivation just now had still aroused a certain fire in him, which needed to be quelled...
Soon, Xiao Li arrived at Xiao Yu's courtyard.
"Brother Li!"
Upon seeing Xiao Li, Xiao Yu couldn't help but show joy on her face.
"Why are you out of bed so quickly? Are you alright?"
Xiao Yu's cheeks were slightly red, but she huffed, "I'm a One-Star Dou Zhe, what's this? I've been fine for a while."
"Really? I don't believe it unless you let me see."
Xiao Li closed the door and walked over with a mischievous smile.
Xiao Yu immediately understood his meaning, and her face instantly grew even redder.
"Brother Li, you only know how to bully me..."
She did not refuse.
Because she was also very infatuated with that feeling, which made it impossible to stop.
Therefore, Xiao Yu cooperated with Xiao Li, filling the room with spring-like warmth.
But after all, it was daytime now... Outside the courtyard.
Having just finished cultivating with Xiao Li, Xiao Mei couldn't help but feel a budding affection and wanted to confide in someone.
And the person she had the best relationship with in the Xiao Family was Xiao Yu.
So, she chose to come and find Xiao Yu.
But as soon as she arrived at the courtyard, before Xiao Mei could even knock on the door, she heard some sounds she had never heard before in her life.
Although Xiao Mei was still young, she wasn't completely ignorant.
On the Dou Qi Continent, women could generally marry and have children by the age of sixteen.
Therefore, mothers would usually educate their daughters about certain knowledge when they were fourteen or fifteen.
Xiao Mei had also been educated.
So, she quickly realized what was happening.
"Sister Xiao Yu... how could this be..."
At this moment, Xiao Mei was filled with shock.
Then, she faintly heard the name Xiao Yu called out from inside.
"Brother Li..."
Suddenly, Xiao Mei felt as if struck by lightning.
"Sister Xiao Yu and Brother Li..."
She felt her young world had been greatly impacted.
"How could they..."
Xiao Mei's heart was filled with more surprise and disbelief.
But listening to the sounds, she did not leave.
It was as if some magic was attracting her.
The more she listened, the more she felt her face flush.
Yet, her feet seemed rooted to the ground, unable to move a single step.
Slowly, she felt herself becoming somewhat aroused...
