Chapter 18 Late Night Conversation
"That's not right, teacher. Even you can't see through Brother Yu's strength?"

Suddenly thinking of this question, Xiao Yan asked with some confusion.

"Uh……"

Yao Lao was stumped by the question. Logically speaking, with his soul power, it was impossible for him to not see through Xiao Yu's disguise. After all, he was the number one alchemist in the continent back then, with the strength of a peak Nine-Transformation Dou Zun.

He couldn't explain it, so he could only say, "This kid is very strange. In my perception before, he was indeed just like an ordinary person, but now, I can feel his strength as a three-star fighter, and his aura is much stronger than that of an ordinary three-star fighter."

"There are only two possibilities for being able to hide from my perception. One is that the soul power is stronger than mine, and the other is that there is a rare treasure that can conceal the cultivation level."

"It is obviously impossible for his soul power to surpass mine at his age. The only explanation is that he possesses a rare treasure. This is why I guess his strength is more than that."

"I'm afraid the strength he is showing now is just the strength he wants to show you."

Xiao Yan heard this, pondered, and suddenly asked: "Then teacher, do you have this type of rare treasure?"

"Me? Yes, but it's a little different. My treasure can only suppress the circulation of your fighting spirit and weaken your fighting power. Your strength is still the same as before."

After Xiao Yan finished listening, he rolled his eyes and said, "You consider this a rare treasure? Teacher, you really accept all kinds of garbage!"

"Hey, you ignorant brat, when you become a fighter, you will know the benefits of my rare treasure!"

At this time, Xiao Yu had already walked off the stage and came to Xiao Yan's side.

"That's not right, Brother Yan, shouldn't you look extremely shocked? Shouldn't you look heartbroken and deceived? What's with that eye roll?"

Seeing Xiao Yan rolling his eyes, Xiao Yu was a little confused. This shouldn’t be the case. Could it be that the three-star fighter strength I displayed was too weak to shock Xiao Yan?

He looked unconfidently at the complex, shocked and unbelievable looks cast at him from the audience. Shouldn't Xiao Yan have the same expression?
Xiao Yan rolled his eyes again: "Brother Yu, why do you have such a bad taste? If you keep being so mean, you will lose me."

"Cough cough."

Xiao Yu was indeed a little proud. After all, he was still a young man and not that stable.

It's also because of the bad habits I developed in the past. Whenever I have good things, I like to show off to my brothers.

"Congratulations, cousin Xiao Yu. Xun'er never thought that cousin Xiao Yu is actually a fighter."

Xun'er, who was standing by, perhaps because she loved the man and his family, said a rare compliment.

"Well, keep a low profile. I'm not the kind of person who likes to show off, and cousin Xun'er is not bad either."

Xiao Yu waved his hand, with a low-key expression, and said modestly.

"puff"

Looking at Xiao Yu's somewhat funny expression, Xiao Xun'er also laughed out loud for a rare moment.

She now understood why Brother Xiao Yan had such a good relationship with cousin Xiao Yu.

Time passed slowly as the three of them chatted, and the prediction came to an end with Xiao Zhan's announcement.

"I'm happy today, Brother Yan, Cousin Xun'er, would you like to go out for a walk and relax?"

"It's rare that Brother Yu is in this mood. Normally, you would just want to hide in your room and sleep."

"Look at what you said, can't your cousin go out for a walk?"

"sure"

"Then are you going or not?"

"Go, why not? I haven't rested for a long time. You don't know how exhausted I was this year in order to cultivate to the seventh level of fighting spirit."

"Where's cousin Xun'er?"

"If Brother Xiao Yan goes, Xun'er must go too."

"Oh! The way you two are following each other's lead makes me jealous."

"Screw you."

After Xiao Yan defeated the challenger, the three left.

As for Xiao Yu, he must have been caught in the door before challenging him. How could a three-star fighter challenge him? He was just looking for trouble.

…………

The three of them ignored the boys and girls who were about to surround them, and walked straight out of the training ground and headed towards the Xiao family's gate.

After strolling around the market for a long time and buying some small things, Xiao Yu watched Xiao Yan buying all kinds of things for Xun'er, which made her very jealous.

It was not until the evening that the three of them returned to the Xiao family with satisfaction.

Xiao Xun'er was very happy that day. After all, she hadn't gone shopping with her brother Xiao Yan like this for a long time. The smile on her face never disappeared throughout the whole day.

But Xiao Yu had a hard time, having to eat dog food like crazy.

He regretted it now. Why did he talk so much and invite Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er to go shopping alone? It was not nice. …………

After separating from Xiao Yan, Xiao Yu returned to the courtyard, but as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Xiao Zhan sitting at the stone table in the courtyard.

"Second uncle?"

Seeing Xiao Yu coming back, Xiao Zhan's smiling face immediately fell and he looked at him seriously.

"Uh……"

"Second Uncle, what are you doing?"

Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Yu with sharp eyes, but still said nothing.

Xiao Yu felt his scalp tingling when being stared at, and whispered: "Second Uncle, don't look at me like that, I'm scared~"

"Humph! You little brat, you still know how to be afraid?!"

Xiao Zhan slapped the stone table and said in an unhappy tone: "You have kept this secret from me for so many years, and now you say you are afraid of me?! That's incredible."

Seeing that Xiao Zhan still had a serious face, Xiao Yu felt a little guilty. He had only kept it a secret for four years. He was also thankful. If Xiao Zhan knew that he was a six-star master, stronger than him, he would be furious.

"Look at what you're saying. I'm not a seeker. I'm giving you a surprise for your coming-of-age ceremony."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan said meaningfully, "Surprised? More like shocked, right? I was in the audience and almost fainted."

"How could that be possible? It's not possible."

Xiao Yu could only wave his hands.

"Hahaha, are you scared, brat?"

Suddenly, Xiao Zhan's expression changed, he smiled happily.

"what?"

Looking at Xiao Zhan who was stroking his beard and smiling, Xiao Yu knew that his second uncle was teasing him, and said helplessly:
"Second Uncle, why are you the same as Brother Yan? You are so good at playing tricks on people."

"Can't Second Uncle play tricks on you? You've been playing tricks on Second Uncle for more than ten years."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu could only agree: "Yes, of course, Second Uncle can do whatever makes him happy."

Xiao Zhan smiled and shook his head, shouting, "Come and sit down."

Xiao Yu obediently sat down next to Xiao Zhan.

Looking at Xiao Yu, Xiao Zhan smiled with satisfaction from time to time.

He stopped only when Xiao Yu felt uncomfortable, and said with a happy smile: "Good, very good! You are worthy of being my eldest brother's son. You can be so patient and deceive everyone."

"Uncle, I'm not..."

Xiao Zhan waved his hand, interrupting Xiao Yu and said, "No need to explain, you are very good this way. Second uncle is speaking from the heart, not teasing you."

"Seeing you now, Second Uncle is truly relieved and no longer worries about your future."

"You are now able to practice, and you have a tolerant character that ordinary people don't have. You will live a happier life on the mainland in the future. Second Uncle is very pleased."

"Second uncle won't ask you why you can practice and why you have such a high talent. This is your secret, and Second uncle doesn't want to ask you to the end."

"You must remember that from now on, no matter who it is, even your second uncle, you must not reveal your biggest secrets. This will bring you a lot of trouble, or even death."

"..."

Xiao Yu did not interrupt, but just listened silently to his second uncle's teachings.

…………

That night, the uncle and nephew talked a lot. Xiao Yu also told Xiao Zhan about his idea of ​​going out to gain experience after his coming-of-age ceremony, and Xiao Zhan readily agreed.

If it were in the past, he would never agree even if he was beaten to death. After all, he didn't know that Xiao Yu was a fighter.

It’s different now. Xiao Yu is much stronger than his peers, he is gifted with extraordinary talents, he is strong-willed and patient, he is thoughtful and calm in the face of emergencies. It is no longer suitable for him to stay in the greenhouse.

Such people should go through hardships and only after being baptized can they become truly strong.

In this world, no one wants their children to live an ordinary life, because mediocrity is a sin here!

There is no elder who doesn't want his descendants to become stronger.

They chatted until late at night before Xiao Zhan left the courtyard.
