Time once again passed by my fingertips for three years.
The Xiao family's martial arts arena.
"Very good, just keep practicing like this from now on." Xiao Han, who looked like an old man, said to a ten-year-old child with a smile.
"Thank you, Grandpa." The child bowed to Xiao Han with excitement, and left jumping up and down.
"Cultivation will be restored in another year." Xiao Han said with a complicated expression.
Although he likes this kind of fishing life, there are always some things that he needs to do. The younger generations of the Xiao family are so motivated, how can he, the ancestor, be lazy.
When Xiao Han's eyes shifted to a slightly lazy and handsome young man in the corner of the martial arts arena, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
He has always seen Xiao Yan's growth in the past three years, from the confusion when he first lost his cultivation, to the anger, numbness and even resignation until he regained his confidence. All changes in Xiao Yan were clearly displayed in the eyes of Xiao Han and many senior officials of the Xiao family.
Although many people were initially worried that letting things go their own way would destroy such a genius in the holy realm, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Han persisted, so naturally they left it alone.
Xiao Han is the key figure who brought the Xiao family to take off, and his reputation and status needless to say. As the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan is conscientious in handling family affairs and has a high prestige, and Xiao Yan is his youngest son.
He didn't have any opinions, so why would anyone else say anything? He could only keep praying in his heart that such a child must not be ruined!
but…
Later, everyone felt relieved. Even during the most difficult period, Xiao Yan never gave up on practicing.
His personality has gone from being arrogant to being taciturn, knowing how to advance and retreat, and knowing how to endure. Even some elders of the Xiao family have never had that kind of tenacity.
Although Xiao Yan now feels a little inferior because of his reputation as a "waste", the moment his talent recovers, the high-spirited spirit that belongs to a genius will naturally return.
Xiao Zhan was also in a good mood. Although he looked dull in front of the juniors, when the senior management met to discuss Xiao Yan's situation,
"Hey, that kid Yan'er still needs to be polished, so don't say any more." That arrogant expression made the elders couldn't help but hit him.
I couldn't help but curse in my heart, "If that kid Xiao Yan is really useless, your face will probably be as long as a horse's face."
However, I immediately felt lucky that the Xiao family was now in a period of growth, and no one wanted to hold the Xiao family back, let alone think about internal fighting.
They all see Xiao Yan's growth, and he will almost be a perfect Dou Sheng seed in the future. The elders are naturally very happy that the Xiao family has such a promising child.
After recovering from the past, Xiao Han smiled and walked in the direction of Xiao Yan. Seeing Xiao Han's arrival, Xun'er, who had been accompanying Xiao Yan, also bowed respectfully.
For some reason, even though Ling Ying had found out very early that Xiao Han's specific cultivation level was just that of an ordinary high-level Douzong, Xun'er's intuition felt that the latter was somewhat unfathomable.
Sensing something strange about Xun'er, the lazy young man lying on the boulder opened his eyes and turned his head to look. A kind old man with white beard and hair appeared in Xiao Yan's eyes.
"Ancestor!" Xiao Yan stood up hurriedly. He respected this ancestor of the Xiao family very much. The other party has guided many Xiao family disciples to practice in the Xiao family for so many years. He treats all clan members equally and does his best.
When he was still a genius, his attitude was no different, and even if he later became a waste, nothing changed.
Such an elder deserves his respect!
It is worth mentioning that in the past three years, Xiao Yan's life has been much better than in the original work. The elders knew the inside story, so they didn't criticize the latter too much. However, due to the element of acting, their eyes looked a little strange and regretful.
Other adults also didn't have any extreme ideas because of Xiao Zhan's face.
On the contrary, because there was no warning from the elders, the younger generation of the Xiao family really acted in his true colors. Xiao Yan, who was originally surrounded by people, now only had Xun'er left.
It was also because of Xun'er's devoted relationship with Xiao Yan that the latter attracted the looks and ridicule of many young people from the Xiao family. In the final analysis...this is all caused by jealousy.
Thinking of the comparison before and after he lost his talent, Xiao Yan couldn't help laughing at himself, and then said respectfully to Xiao Han: "Ancestor, what's the matter?"
"Why, why can't I come to you little guy when I have nothing to do?" Xiao Han said with a half-smile.
"Of course not." Xiao Yan waved his hands repeatedly. Although this ancestor looked like an immortal, he was well aware of the hidden evil taste.
"Okay, stop talking." When Xiao Han saw Xiao Yan open his mouth, he knew that this kid was going to flatter him again. He couldn't stand Xiao Yan's dumb mouth.
"You haven't given up on your practice yet." Xiao Han suddenly said in a heavy tone.
After hearing Xiao Han's words, Xiao Yan and Xun'er beside him began to look unnatural, especially the former, the disappointment in his eyes was about to overflow.
"I can only say that if you persist, there is still hope. That's all." Xiao Han patted Xiao Yan's shoulder and sighed.
"This is natural." Xiao Yan lowered his head, raised his head again, and returned to his original appearance, grinning. On the other hand, Xun'er, who was staying quietly and obediently, glanced at Xiao Han thoughtfully.
"Okay, will you accompany me, an old man, to make some gestures?" Xiao Han raised his brows and said as if seeking Xiao Yan's opinion.
"Then please show mercy, Ancestor." Xiao Yan was not surprised. After all, since his Dou Qi mysteriously disappeared, Xiao Yan began to slow down his Dou Qi training.
Under Xiao Han's suggestion, he specially set aside some time to improve his physical fitness. This similar scene has been experienced countless times in the past three years.
The two stood opposite each other, and Xiao Han waved his hand casually. Xiao Yan and the three of them suddenly entered a snowy space. Even though Xiao Yan had experienced the cold air more than once, he still couldn't help but shiver. .
Xun'er frowned slightly. Although she had seen this space more than once, she still looked around curiously, "This ancestor is not a simple person!" Xun'er said to herself in her heart.
Although Xiao Han has lost the cultivation of Dou Sheng, his understanding and application of the power of space have not regressed at all.
In terms of conventional combat power and methods, even some newly promoted Dou Zun cannot compare. The space he created casually was a simplified version of the original fighting skill "Northern Country Without Borders".
In order not to freeze Xiao Yan to death directly, but also to have a training effect, Xiao Han also specially suppressed his cultivation and carefully controlled the amount of fighting energy used.
"Ancestor, please be merciful!" Xiao Yan said with a mean smile.
"It depends on your performance." Xiao Han was neither sad nor happy.
"drink!"
Xiao Yan rushed towards Xiao Han in an instant, with a sudden burst of speed that even some two- and three-star fighters could not compare to.
"Not bad." Xiao Han praised him. With Xiao Yan's current physical level, as long as he can continue to practice, he will be able to return to the Dou Master in less than a year. It will not waste much time to return to the Great Dou Master. .
…
An hour later, Xiao Han withdrew from his domain, leaving Xiao Yan lying there with a look of despair. It could be seen from the redness and swelling exposed in the air that the child was seriously injured.
Xun'er, on the other hand, helped Xiao Yan towards the alchemy hall with ease. Although Xiao Yan's body was unable to take elixirs, some common medicines for treating injuries naturally existed in the alchemy hall.
