Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 210 The First Time After Amnesia

Another half a month later, Tong Rui and Xiao Yan arrived at a secluded place in the back mountain.

Yao Lao floated out of Xiao Yan's ring and watched as Tong Rui swallowed the Qi Gathering Powder. A steady stream of Dou Qi spread out from his body, while the Dou Qi absorbed by Tong Rui was squeezed from the outside to the inside.

As the two fighting energies competed with each other, they slowly spread into Tong Rui's body and were continuously absorbed by his body.

However, the efficiency was very low, a large amount of Dou Qi dissipated, leaving only a small amount of Dou Qi, which was integrated into Tong Rui's body.

Until the fighting spirit condensed by the Qi Gathering Powder was exhausted, Tong Rui's absorption of fighting spirit was interrupted by Yao Lao.

After Tong Rui stopped, he and Xiao Yan looked at Yao Lao together.

After thinking for a while, Yao Lao said, "The medicinal power of the Qi Gathering Powder was actually completely absorbed, but the efficiency was too low. Only one tenth of the fighting spirit gathered by the Qi Gathering Powder remained."

"I want to study your body carefully. Please use a bottle to bleed some blood so I can study it carefully."

Tong Rui nodded, but when he used the knife handed to him by Xiao Yan to scratch his fingers, there was no mark left, and the knife was broken instead.

Tong Rui looked at the half-broken knife in his hand and looked at Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan was also surprised and looked at Yao Lao.

Yao Lao looked at Tong Rui's body and couldn't think of any solution for a moment. After thinking for a while, he said to Tong Rui: "Forget it. It's hard to find enough medicinal materials in this remote area. I'll go back and think about it before experimenting."

Tong Rui nodded. Although he was a little disappointed, there was nothing he could do.

Day after day, he would practice Dou Qi in the yard when he had nothing to do. Occasionally, he would use the pills brought by Xiao Yan to try to adapt his body to Dou Qi.

It was not until eight months later that Xiao Yan and Xun'er found Tong Rui together.

"Ah Xing, we are going to attend the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony soon. Do you want to come with us?"

The coming-of-age ceremony is a big day that every family attaches great importance to. As one of the three major families in Wutan City, the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony naturally attracted the attention of various forces in the city.

Tong Rui thought about it, nodded, and followed the two to the testing bench.

After all, he has nothing to do every day. Although it is warm and comfortable to bask in the sun, Tong Rui can bask in the sun no matter what he does.

Tong Rui arrived at the venue and looked at the huge platform in the distance. The platform was made of huge wood and was specially built for holding the coming-of-age ceremony.

His eyes swept across the empty stage, and then shifted to the crowd from various forces below the wooden stage.

Although he had no fighting spirit and could not tell how strong they were, it seemed to him that none of them were as strong as Yao Lao.

Just as Tong Rui was looking around, a tall woman with a long sword on her waist walked towards him.

Seeing her coming, Xiao Yan also frowned, with some disgust and impatience in his expression.

"Heh, Xiao Yan, I didn't expect that you could still make a comeback. It's really surprising." As she got closer, the woman sneered at the impatience on Xiao Yan's face that he didn't even bother to hide.

"It's none of your business." Xiao Yan was obviously very disliked by her. His usual indifference was completely abandoned at this moment, and he opened his mouth with a swear word.

Tong Rui then stood aside and watched the two quarreling. Through Xiao Yan's introduction, he also knew that the woman's name was Xiao Yu.

Seeing that the two were arguing more and more deadlocked and were about to fight, the arrival of Xiao Zhan, Xiao Yan's father, put an end to the argument.

Tong Rui saw that there was nothing to do and didn't care about the messy interpersonal interactions. He just found a clean place and sat down to watch this complicated coming-of-age ceremony.

However, it was quite lively after Xiao Yan's test. Watching the people fighting on the stage, Tong Rui always felt very familiar with it, but he felt that his feelings were outrageous.

Because he knew very well that this was his first time here, and now even watching other people fighting seemed familiar to him, Tong Rui felt that his occasional little feelings might be really useless in helping him regain his memory.

Just like that, after the coming-of-age ceremony, Tong Rui just sat in the yard basking in the sun, absorbing fighting spirit, looking at the stars, and absorbing fighting spirit.

Occasionally I would see Xiao Yan, take a pill, which had no effect, and then continue practicing.

Until this day, Xiao Yan came to find Tong Rui, hoping that he could accompany him for a stroll on the street.

Tong Rui didn't care of course, but for several days in a row Xiao Yan asked him to go to the market every day. Tong Rui found out after talking with Xiao Yan.

Because he had recently learned the art of alchemy and helped the Xiao family to conquer a large market, Xiao Zhan suddenly assigned him to manage this market, under the pretext of training.

In addition to ensuring my own safety, I also wanted to take Tong Rui for more walks, in case he saw some special little things that would remind him of his memories. Anyway, that's what's shown on TV.

On this day, when the two were still strolling around, a thin man named Kru came over and told Xiao Yan that Xun'er and a few others were molested by Galeo of the Galie family and an unknown man on the outskirts of the market town.

Xiao Yan's indifferent expression slowly turned cold. He turned his head slightly and wanted to call more people, but when he saw Tong Rui eating candied haws beside him, he asked him to lead the way and headed to the market with a few people around him.

When several people arrived, there was a big man in front of Xiao Yu. He had raised his iron fist with a ferocious look on his face and smashed it hard on his chest.

Xiao Yan quickly appeared beside him, and a fierce gust of wind hit the big man's face hard. The huge force caused the latter to slide several meters on the ground with blood all over his face before he slowly stopped.

"Anyone who started a fight just now will be disabled..."

Xiao Yan held a steel rod in his hand and glanced at Liu Xi and Galeo opposite him with a somewhat cold look. He pursed his lips and spoke in a light voice with a hint of eeriness.

Hearing Xiao Yan's voice, more than a dozen big men holding the same iron rods in the crowd suddenly swarmed out like tigers and wolves, with hideous grins on their faces.

Tong Rui did not move. He walked to Xiao Yan and looked at the two very wretched people opposite him.

Opposite them were Galeo and an alchemist named Liu Xi. Even an "idle person" like Tong Rui had heard about the fight between the Galeo and Xiao families.

Just like that, in front of everyone in the market town, Xiao Yan disdainfully accepted Galeo's challenge.

In the field, Xiao Yan rushed forward with an iron rod in his hand. Galeo sneered, and a faint green fighting spirit quickly condensed in his palm.

Standing on the spot, his body motionless, Galeo's palms suddenly curled into claw-like shapes. At his fingertips, cyan fighting energy loomed together into ten spikes. He laughed ferociously, and his claws danced, bringing up a wave of thorns. The sound of breaking wind fiercely attacked Xiao Yan.

Feeling the sharp sound of tearing the air, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and swung his slightly curled left hand towards the ground in front of him. An invisible force hit the ground, and the reverse force suddenly stopped Xiao Yan's rushing figure.

Seeing how Xiao Yan could flexibly control the momentum generated by his own speed, the experienced mercenaries watching around him immediately exclaimed in amazement.

The moment his body stopped, the iron rod in Xiao Yan's hand flew out without hesitation, like an arrow shot from a bow, shooting towards Galeo's head.

Looking at the iron rod that was shooting towards him, Galeo sneered disdainfully. He clenched his palm with a green fighting spirit behind his back, and immediately shook. The air in front of him rippled slightly, and several small light blue winds appeared out of thin air.

After the iron rod passed through several small wind waves, the force on it was easily resolved by the latter.

Without the support of the force, the iron rod fell to the ground with a crisp sound when it was only half a meter away from Galio's head. In the subsequent battle, Xiao Yan was at a disadvantage everywhere.

Xiao Yan once again dodged Galeo's attack in a somewhat awkward manner by turning sideways. As soon as he retreated, Galeo, whose speed was increased by the wind attribute technique, came closely, clenched his hands, and hit Xiao Yan's head with a ferocious look.

There was a wall behind him without knowing when. Although there was no way to avoid it, Xiao Yan's face was still as calm as water. He exhaled slowly, and light yellow fighting spirit suddenly surged out from his fist. Then, with an indomitable and fierce momentum, he was finally about to start his first head-on collision with Galeo.

Suddenly, Xiao Yan's clenched fist suddenly opened, and a sudden strong invisible thrust suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and finally hit Galeo's chest hard through the air.

The chest was attacked by an inexplicable force, and Galeo's swift forward charge was directly reflected. His face turned pale, and panic flashed across his ferocious eyes: "What kind of fighting skill is this? Why is it so secretive?"

Seeing Galeo suddenly flying backwards in mid-air, many people present were all surprised.

"Suck palm!"

With his open palm pointed at Galeo who was flying backwards, Xiao Yan chose the best time with an extremely sharp eye. Suddenly, the fierce suction force pulled Galeo who was flying backwards towards this side.

Being pulled back and forth like a ball in the air, Galeo became extremely furious. He gritted his teeth and looked at Xiao Yan who was getting closer and closer, with a cruel look on his face.

Galeo clenched his right fist fiercely, and the green fighting spirit quickly condensed on the surface of his fist, and finally formed a small vortex: "Xuan-level low-level fighting skill: Green Wind Whirling Fist!"

The fist made a sharp sound of breaking wind in the air, and the huge wind pressure actually blew away all the debris on the ground beside Xiao Yan.

Squinting his eyes slightly, feeling the strong wind pressure coming towards him, Xiao Yan's face gradually became serious. After a moment of silence, he suddenly turned around and stomped his right foot hard on the wall. The huge force left a footprint about half an inch deep on the wall.

With the help of the wall's reverse force, Xiao Yan's body spun sharply in the air, and his right foot stretched into a strange arc of force. At this moment, his soft trouser legs seemed as hard as steel.

"Baji collapse!"

The moment the fists and feet touched, yellow Dou Qi rapidly emerged from Xiao Yan's right leg. A faint sound made Galeo's face change suddenly.

"Bang!" The fists and feet connected, and a muffled sound spread out from the junction like muffled thunder.

"Crack!" At the moment of contact, the sound of broken bones was heard, followed by a sharp sound. Xiao Yan and Galeo's bodies were thrown backwards almost at the same time.

His body hit the wall behind him heavily. Xiao Yan felt a sweet feeling in his throat and couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood, which splattered all over the ground.

At the same time, Galeo fell heavily to the ground, suddenly holding his right hand, rolling on the ground and howling miserably.

After sitting on the ground for more than ten minutes, Xiao Yan slowly got up, glanced coldly at the stunned Liu Xi not far away, dragged his numb right foot, picked up the iron rod beside him, and walked towards Galeo who was lying on the ground and howling with a fierce look on his face.

Xiao Yan paused and looked down at Galeo. Suddenly he grinned, and with the black iron rod in his hand, he smashed it down hard on Galeo's head with a sound of breaking wind.

Everyone's eyes followed the iron rod in Xiao Yan's hand. However, when the iron rod was only half a meter away from Galio's head, a loud shout suddenly rang out on the street like a thunderclap: "Xiao family kid, it's just a challenge, how dare you be so cruel?"

Hearing this furious shout, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the iron rod in his hand not only did not stop, but smashed down with even more ferocious force.

"Get out of my way!" Xiao Yan's actions obviously aroused the anger of the man who had shouted earlier. With a curse, a sharp wind-breaking energy whizzed out, like a flash of green lightning, cutting across the middle of Xiao Yan's iron rod. Suddenly, the hard iron rod broke into two pieces out of thin air, and the broken end was as smooth as a mirror.

The iron rod was easily cut in half. Xiao Yan's face changed slightly. He gritted his teeth and was about to thrust the remaining half of the iron rod into Galeo's throat when the green energy attacked him again. The strong wind pressure made Xiao Yan's breathing quicken.

His pupils shrank slightly, and he tried hard to push the iron rod down, but it seemed as if it was isolated by an invisible wind film. No matter what he did, he couldn't bring it down.

The corner of his mouth twitched, and Xiao Yan tightly grasped the iron rod in his right hand. He tilted his body slightly, and then suddenly twisted it. The iron rod in his hand flew out of his hand, turned into a black shadow, and shot fiercely at the figure leaping in the air.

"Hmph!" Seeing that Xiao Yan actually dared to attack him, the figure snorted coldly, curled his hands into claws, and waved them fiercely in front of him. The rich green fighting spirit formed several light green energy wind blades.

With a flick of his finger, a wind blade flew out of his hand and cut the iron rod into more than a dozen pieces of iron.

"You are so young, but you have such a vicious heart. Today I want to teach Xiao Zhan a lesson!"

After smashing the iron rod, the figure sneered, and green Dou Qi quickly condensed in his palms. A circle of wind formed under his feet, and then he carried it in the air. His body was like a cannonball, swooping down towards Xiao Yan. With a wave of his hand, a light green Dou Qi wind blade appeared out of thin air again and shot towards Xiao Yan.

The strong wind pressure generated by the wind blade blew away the debris on the ground, making it spotless.

"Teach me a lesson? You're nothing! Just take care of your own son." Shaking his head with a sneer, Xiao Yan had recognized from the attributes of his fighting spirit that the man was Galeo's father, Galeb.

Looking at the oncoming wind blade with a calm face, Xiao Yan was just about to use the recoil to rush into the air, but a figure appeared in front of him.

This person was none other than Tong Rui. The crowd watching could not help but exclaim and sigh when they saw a handsome young man standing in front of Xiao Yan.

But when the sharp wind blade fell on Tong Rui, it only tore the clothes on the arm that was blocking it.

Everyone looked at Tong Rui, and couldn't help but feel surprised and gasp.

"Hiss, this boy is so terrifying that he took the blow from the great fighting master without any injury."

After falling to the ground, Galeb glanced at Galeo's arm with a gloomy face, his face twitched slightly, and a cold murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

But when he looked at Tong Rui, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. Of course, he could see clearly that the young man in front of him did not use his fighting spirit, but completely used his body to meet his wind blade.

Jialebi looked at Tong Rui and asked tentatively, "Who are you?"

Tong Rui ignored him, looked at his torn cuffs, and turned to look at Xiao Yan: "Do you want to kill them?"

Seeing that Tong Rui didn't take him seriously, Galeb's face darkened.

"Axing, can you?"

Tong Rui nodded, looked at the father and son in front of him, and punched Galebi at a speed that was invisible to everyone.

Then, everyone saw Galeb explode into a bloody mist.

The people watching around saw that Galbi was smashed to pieces, and their pupils shrank. They looked at the young man in front of them again.

Even Xun'er, who was about to rescue Xiao Yan and the other man, suddenly had the fire in her eyes extinguished, and looked at Tong Rui with astonishment in her eyes.

Seeing this, Liu Xi, who was standing nearby, didn't care about the alchemist's face and ran away.

Everyone in the Xiao family, including Xiao Zhan who had just arrived, were also very surprised to see the scene in front of them. They thought that the sunny boy who had been in the Xiao family for such a long time actually had such a personality.

But everyone had a consensus in their minds at this moment: things were about to change in Wutan City.
