Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 121 The Two Women Meet

The hustle and bustle of the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony has subsided, and the third day has arrived.

Xiao Bai woke up from his cultivation and shook his head as he felt the progress of the refining process within his body.

At this rate, it will take at least a few more months. Xiao Yu's appearance the day before yesterday indicates that the enrollment time for Canaan Academy is not far off. I wonder if I can completely refine it before then.

As his cultivation level improved, the energy fed back by the Thunder Seed no longer allowed him to advance by leaps and bounds as before, so a trip to Canaan Academy was necessary.

After all, the dean of Canaan Academy, Mang Tianchi, is a member of the Thunder Clan. There must be some things in the academy that are useful to Thunder Cultivators, not to mention other opportunities there that will be very helpful in the future.

However, if he were to go to Canaan Academy, there were some things he needed to plan ahead of time. Thinking of Xun'er and Xian'er, Xiao Bai felt a headache coming on.

Xiao Bai finds Xun'er a bit hard to understand. Based on her behavior these past few days, he suspects she probably knows something, but she just ignores it, giving him the feeling that a sword is hanging over his head and he doesn't know when it will fall.

The current problem is that if we go to Canaan Academy, Xun'er will definitely go too, so what should we do with Xian'er?

"Forget it, there's always a way out. We can just take them both with us when the time comes!" After a moment of contemplation, Xiao Bai rallied himself. If he couldn't handle either of them, what would happen when Cai Lin arrived?

I got up and changed my clothes; it was time to go check out the Monster Mountain Range.

Yesterday, Consort Ya delivered the medicinal herbs, which cost about 200,000 gold coins. She was quite particular, calculating everything at cost price. In return, Xiao Bai paid with a fourth-grade pill.

I hadn't gone far from the yard.

"Brother Xiao Bai!"

Xiao Bai's lips twitched, and he quickly turned around to look at the pretty Xun'er standing not far away, a warm smile appearing on his face: "Xun'er, good morning!"

"It's quite early. I wonder where Brother Xiao Bai is going so early in the morning?" Xun'er asked softly, a strange look flashing in her eyes.

"Haha. Just browsing around, just browsing around!" Xiao Bai said with a slightly guilty laugh.

"Oh? Then Xun'er will come with you!" Xun'er said, walking over and giving him a dismissive glance. "Let's go!"

"." Xiao Bai immediately understood that this girl had come to show her true colors today.

"What? Brother Xiao Bai, do you not want Xun'er to come along?" Xun'er lowered her eyelids slightly and said calmly.

"Looks like there's no escaping it today!" Xiao Bai sighed inwardly. Oh well, whether he sticks his neck out or not, he'll get stabbed anyway. This day was bound to come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so sudden.

"Can she leave Wutan City?" Xiao Bai asked softly. He didn't know how the ancient clan protected Xun'er and wanted to know if leaving the Xiao family would have any impact.

"Okay!" Xun'er said calmly, as if she knew what he was asking.

"Let's go then!" Looking at the expressionless, stern-faced girl, Xiao Bai tentatively reached out to take her hand. Seeing that Xun'er only glanced at him and did not struggle, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Half an hour later, the small valley in the Monster Mountain Range came into view in the distance. Xiao Bai's heart suddenly tightened. Xun'er, who was in his arms, seemed to sense his emotions and suddenly spoke:

"What? Afraid I'll fight her?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai froze. This little girl hadn't uttered a word since leaving the Xiao family, and upon suddenly hearing these words, his fighting spirit condensed, and he almost fell from the sky.

"Hmph. Fly more steadily. You scared me!" Xun'er wrapped her arms around his neck and huffed in dissatisfaction.

Xiao Bai hurriedly controlled the circulation of his internal energy, and smiled bitterly to himself. This girl was too strange today, making him a little unable to figure her out.

In a short while

"noob!"

The moment his feet touched the ground, a joyful cry came from the thatched hut. Xiao Bai instantly felt a chilling gaze shot towards him like a sharp arrow.

"Put me down now, Little...Bai...Brother!" Xun'er's eyes flashed with cold light as she gritted her teeth and whispered in his ear.

Xiao Bai hurriedly and gently put Xun'er down, his eyes slightly unfocused.

"Hmph!" Xun'er glanced at him, snorted coldly, and ignored him, starting to straighten her slightly disheveled clothes.

At this moment, a woman in a white dress walked out of the thatched hut. She had a gentle and ethereal temperament and a soft smile on her pretty face. When she saw Xun'er, she looked a little surprised.

"Who is this?"

"Ahem," Xiao Bai stepped forward, cleared his throat, and said to Xun'er, "This is Little Fairy Doctor!" Then, turning to Little Fairy Doctor, he introduced her, "This is Xun'er!"

Upon hearing Xiao Bai's introduction and seeing the awkward expression on his face, Little Fairy Doctor instantly understood the relationship between the woman and him.

Looking at the graceful figure in green, like a pure lotus untouched by the dust of the world, a hint of amazement flashed in her eyes. She had never seen such a beautiful girl before!

A complex feeling welled up in her heart. She had already guessed some of Xiao Bai's behavior during their time together. Although she had anticipated this, she hadn't expected him to be such an outstanding opponent.

Xun'er looked at the woman in white in front of her, a hint of surprise in her eyes. Although this woman's appearance was not as good as hers, her ethereal and gentle temperament made her look pitiful and charming.

"No wonder he can't forget it!" Thinking of someone's behavior of being fair and impartial during this period, I couldn't help but feel resentful.

That scoundrel really knows how to handle things perfectly, serving two days' worth of water on both sides without spilling a single drop!

She's not stupid. Xiao Bai went back for two days and then disappeared for two days. This is practically telling her that there's something wrong with him!

She guessed that it was related to those ten days, so she asked Ling Ying to check it out. Unexpectedly, it really gave her a big surprise!

Seeing that the air was a bit quiet, Xiao Bai wanted to say something, but suddenly realized that the two women's eyes had met at some point.

He wondered if he was hallucinating; the two pairs of eyes seemed to spark with electricity as they met, and the surrounding temperature appeared to be rising.

Just as Xiao Bai was about to interrupt them, Xun'er and Little Fairy Doctor smiled slightly in unison.

To his astonishment, both women stepped forward, and gently clasped each other's white, jade-like hands.

"You must be Little Fairy Doctor! My brother Xiao Bai was injured a while ago, and I want to thank you for taking care of him." Xun'er patted Little Fairy Doctor's hand and said with a soft smile.

"Taking care of Xiaobai is something I do willingly, so there's no need for thanks," Little Fairy Doctor said with a gentle smile and a light touch.

Upon hearing this, Xun'er's smile widened, and a glint of golden light appeared in her eyes. Little Fairy Doctor, though startled, remained calm and smiled gently, her eyes filled with a misty gray.

In an instant, both women were quite surprised.

Xun'er could sense that the gray mist contained a deadly poison. She had heard that Little Fairy Doctor was a physician, but she hadn't expected her skill with poison to be so formidable.

Little Fairy Doctor hadn't expected that this girl, whose cultivation was clearly inferior to hers, would give her a strong sense of danger with the golden light in her eyes.
