In Battle Through the Heavens, lying down makes you stronger.

Chapter 12: Checking in at the back mountain, Xiao Yan sets his goals.

Ling Ying pondered for a moment and said,

"Miss! Based on this old servant's guess, Young Master Xiao Ran's current soul realm has at least reached the Great Perfection of the Mortal Realm."

"Otherwise, the old servant, who was an eight-star Dou Huang, would not have felt his soul tremble, and thus was discovered by Young Master Xiao Ran without realizing it."

As she spoke, Ling Ying couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Miss has excellent taste!"

"Judging from Young Master Xiao Ran's talent, he is probably no less than the most outstanding talents in the clan."

Upon hearing Ling Ying praise Xiao Ran,

Xiao Ran and Xiao Xun'er were clearly very happy, and said with a smile,

"I've seen how hard Brother Xiao Ran has worked."

Ling Ying was slightly taken aback. Her mouth moved, but in the end she didn't say anything and kept her head down in silence.

He secretly wondered to himself, "Could it be that Young Master Xiao Ran has put in a lot of effort?"

But when I see him on ordinary days, he's either lying around somewhere or lying on Miss Xun'er's lap.

Where have I ever seen Young Master Xiao Ran seriously cultivate?

Could it be that Young Master Xiao Ran has also been diligently cultivating from time to time?

However, he dared not ask the question that was on his mind.

Ling Ying, Xiao Xun'er's guardian in Wutan City, knew that in front of Xiao Xun'er, you could say anything about anyone in the Xiao family and laugh at anyone.

But you absolutely must not show any contempt or sarcasm towards Xiao Ran, not even a hint of suspicion, otherwise the young lady will definitely be angry.

Of course, it would be best to praise Xiao Ran in front of the young lady.

Miss will be very happy!

Sure enough, Ling Ying's words clearly put Xiao Xun'er in a much better mood.

He said to Ling Ying,

"Alright, Elder Ling, you can go ahead with your work."

"Brother Xiao Ran is so powerful now, I need to cultivate diligently too."

"Otherwise, I won't be able to help Brother Xiao Ran cultivate in the future."

Ling Ying forced a smile, her face full of helplessness.

If this news gets back to the clan, countless talented and outstanding people will line up at the Broken Heart Cliff, or even line up to fight Xiao Ran to the death!

The goddess, whom all the pride of the clan could only look up to and never reach, was actually cultivating diligently in order to catch up with an unknown junior.

Ling Ying clasped her hands in a respectful bow to Xiao Xun'er.

"Yes, Miss."

Then, Ling Ying's figure slowly disappeared from the spot.

Xiao Xun'er then sat back down on the bed.

"Brother Xiao Ran, Xun'er also needs to work hard."

The back mountain of the Xiao family.

After cultivating for more than two hours, Xiao Yan

He discovered that the fighting spirit he had painstakingly cultivated had mysteriously disappeared once again.

How could Xiao Yan, who had once again set his sights on defeating Nalan Yanran, remain calm?

Deeply affected, he rushed to the back mountain of the Xiao family and faced the cliff.

He roared loudly, venting the repression and anger in his heart.

"Ah~~ Ah~~ Ah!"

"Damn it! If I can't cultivate, what's the point of being transported here?!"

"God! You damn God! I fucking hate you!"

Xiao Yan's heart-wrenching roar echoed in the valley below the cliff.

Hearing the echo, Xiao Yan grew angrier the more he thought about it.

He ripped off a black ring from his hand and threw it away forcefully.

"Giao!"

He let out an angry roar towards the valley.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh!"

Just as Xiao Yan was venting his frustration and anger,

Suddenly, an impatient voice came from beside me.

"What's all the noise about? Can't a person get some sleep?!"

Xiao Yan's shouts came to an abrupt halt.

He turned his head blankly, looking in the direction of the sound.

There, on the side of the large rock where he usually liked to lie, a small couch had appeared out of nowhere.

A figure in white robes sat on a small couch, a handsome young man basking in the sun with his eyes closed.

Who else could it be but Xiao Ran?

Xiao Yan rolled his eyes in exasperation.

Suppressing his anger, he said with a bitter face,

"No, Ran-ge!"

"I've already fallen on such a pathetic state, why are you joining in this commotion?"

"Go home and get some sleep, it's windy here!"

"I wouldn't say anything if you were lying on the edge of the bathhouse while I was taking a shower!"

"But at least give me some private space, let me vent here, okay?"

On the small couch beside the large rock, Xiao Ran, with his eyes closed, spoke softly.

"It's okay, I don't mind."

"You can keep yelling, just don't disturb my sleep."

As he spoke, he rolled over contentedly.

Xiao Yan: "..."

Xiao Yan rolled his eyes helplessly, feeling as if a crow slowly flew past his forehead.

His gaze inadvertently swept over his hands, and he was suddenly horrified.

"Oh no! The only thing my mother left me!"

Xiao Yan then suddenly remembered.

In a fit of anger, he had vented his frustration by throwing away the black ring that his mother had left him.

How can this be good?

Xiao Yan looked to Xiao Ran for help.

However, the other person was still fast asleep.

It seems I misinterpreted your feelings!

Sometimes, even Xiao Yan himself was puzzled.

Is his sworn brother Xiao Ran really that sleepy all day long?

For most of the time, Xiao Yan could see the other person sleeping soundly.

If you sleep in late during the day, what do you do at night?

Was he going to nurture his girlfriend's meridians and talk about love, or did he go out to steal a cow at night?

However, at this moment, Xiao Yan couldn't care less about anything else.

He hurriedly took a few steps to the edge of the cliff.

Looking at the cliff shrouded in thick fog,

My heart is filled with helplessness and sorrow.

He knelt directly on the ground, lowering his voice and roaring angrily.

"I will never suffer this humiliation again!"

"I, Xiao Yan, will absolutely not fail!"

"I would never marry Nalan...Nalan Yanran!"

Just as Xiao Yan was suppressing his emotions and quietly making a vow about his lofty ambitions.

An old, hoarse laugh entered my ears eerily.

"Hehe, little one!"

"How interesting! Nalan Yanran is a girl, how can you marry her? Are you going to be her sister?"

"Who?!"

"Who's speaking?"

Xiao Yan was shocked and quickly stood up in a defensive posture.

Looking around, he mainly focused on Xiao Ran on the small couch behind the large rock.

He thought Xiao Ran was just joking with him.

Just then, a strange laugh that sent chills down Xiao Yan's spine came from behind him.

Hehe~~~!

"Little one, don't look anymore, I'm right behind you!"

Xiao Yan froze, mechanically turning around and slowly looking at the direction behind him.

A black ring was seen floating slowly above the cliff.

Above the ring, a transparent, aged figure floated, watching him with amusement.

Xiao Yan was immediately dumbfounded.

He opened his mouth, but his lips trembled and he couldn't utter a single word.

The transparent old man on the ring smiled as he looked at the dumbfounded Xiao Yan and said...

"Little one, you've got good composure! You weren't scared at all?"

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Yan had already turned and run away.

He was shouting loudly as he ran.

"Help! Help!"

"Brother Ran, help! It's a ghost! I've seen a ghost!"

The old man on the ring is transparent, and several black lines are clearly visible on his transparent forehead.
