“Practice it yourself. Let me see what’s wrong with it.”

Leng Xianxue stroked Leng Xianyuan’s head as she spoke to Su Hao.

Su Hao nodded and picked up the spirit weapon Tang Dao. Then, he closed his eyes and began to recall Leng Xianxue’s saber techniques.

Streams of blade aura began to linger around Su Hao’s body. With a clang, the blade was unsheathed, and Su Hao began to imitate Leng Xianxue’s techniques. After a moment, Su Hao went from being stiff to becoming more experienced.

A hint of surprise flashed across Leng Xianxue’s eyes. She had thought that Su Hao’s talent for sabers was very high, but right now, his talent was somewhat ridiculous. It had only been a short period of time, but he had already mastered these techniques.

This child would definitely be able to represent her Empyrean Terminus Academy in the upcoming Academy Competition!

After another period of time, Su Hao stopped and panted heavily. It wasn’t that he wanted to stop, but he couldn’t stop. He didn’t expect that adding the blade force to practice on the blade would actually consume a large amount of his essence, energy, and spirit. He had only cultivated for around ten minutes, but his essence, energy, and spirit were almost exhausted.

Leng Xianxue laughed lightly and walked to his side. She pointed at his head, and instantly, a wave of heat rushed into Su Hao’s body. The essence, energy, and spirit that he had expended previously had mostly recovered.

“Today, you will cultivate to this point. Cultivation also emphasizes the degree of relaxation. If you blindly cultivate, there might be hidden injuries on your body.”

Leng Xianxue warned Su Hao.

Just now, when her spiritual aura was injected into Su Hao’s body, she conveniently healed some of the hidden injuries in his body. Presumably, these hidden injuries were caused by his unrestrained cultivation these few days. Although these hidden injuries would disappear once he reached Foundation Establishment, it was still a bad way to cultivate.

“I understand. I’ll be more careful in the future. Thank you, Sister Xianxue.”

Su Hao said gratefully.

After that, Leng Xianxue rubbed her chin for a while. As if she had thought of something, she continued, “Also, your saber aura is too strong. If you can avoid using it normally, then don’t. It’s too draining on you.”

Su Hao nodded. Previously, he had also sensed that with his current level of strength, even though he could use Saber Force, the consumption was too much. He would not be able to last long before he was drained dry.

“Then, Sister Xianxue, Little Yuan, it’s getting late, I’ll go back first. Bye bye.”

Hearing this, Leng Xianxue raised her head to take a look. It was only then that she realized that the clouds in the sky had already begun to dim.

“Then let me send you back.”

“Huh?”

Su Hao was stunned. He was no longer a three-year-old child. Did he need someone to send him home?

Puchi!

Leng Xianxue couldn’t help but chuckle. She then said gently, “You silly child. I’m a cultivator with a high cultivation level, after all. If you go back by yourself, you’ll have to take a car or something. I’ll only send you back for a few seconds.”

“Brother is stupid.”

There was an innocent smile on Little Yuan’s cute little face. Although she did not understand, she knew that her sister had just said that her brother was a fool. That brother must be a big fool.

“Ah, this!”

Su Hao scratched his head, hesitating in his heart. He understood that this was Leng Xianxue’s kind intentions, but the big boss had already guided him for so long today. Now that he had to be escorted back home, anyone would feel embarrassed.

Leng Xianxue could tell that Su Hao was in a predicament. She chuckled lightly and said, “Sending you back is as easy as lifting a finger for me. It won’t waste much of my time. Besides, I’m going to bring Xiaoyuan back too. Just treat it as going along the way.”

“Eh? Are you sending him home? Yay! I’m going to his house!”

Little Yuan ran to Su Hao’s side, her small hand gently tugging on the corner of his shirt, her big watery eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Su Hao turned his head away slightly and did not look at Little Yuan. He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and hug this little cutie in his arms. If not for the fact that he was drenched in sweat, he would have done so long ago.

“Thank you, Sister Xianxue.”

In the end, he still agreed. He couldn’t bear to look at Little Yuan’s big eyes that were filled with anticipation. He couldn’t reject her at all. Who else could reject her? Absolutely not! No one could reject such a cute and obedient Lolita!

“Yay! Let’s go to Big Brother’s house!”

Little Yuan clapped excitedly and jumped up and down, showing the lively and romantic side of children at this age.

“Then tell me your address.”

Leng Xianxue asked.

“10001 room in the garden!”

“Are you sure?”

Leng Xianxue looked at Su Hao in surprise. She wondered if Su Hao thought that she didn’t have a childhood.

“Um… I’m sorry about the Xue family. I’m used to joking around with my classmates, so I just blurted it out…”

Su Hao suddenly felt awkward. In his memory, when he asked where his classmates lived, his classmates would always use this sentence to tease him, and then they would often use it as a joke. In the end… when he heard others ask where they lived, he would subconsciously say it.

“Really, be serious.”

Leng Xianxue rolled her eyes flirtatiously at him. Just as Su Hao finished speaking, she actually had the urge to continue. Fortunately, her cultivation level was high, so she held it in.

Seeing Leng Xianxue’s delicate state, Su Hao’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat, but he quickly suppressed it.

“Shanghai Eastern Outer City, Su Qing Estate, Building 6, Room 407.”

Leng Xianxue nodded and snapped her fingers.

Swish!

A stream of light flew over from the horizon and stopped in front of them in an instant. Then, Su Hao also saw the true appearance of that stream of light.

It was a fiery red gourd with faint golden cloud patterns engraved on it. The cloud patterns exuded traces of divine charm that surrounded the body. In short, it was full of style and was very high class!

“Big!”

Leng Xianxue formed hand seals, then raised her hand and pointed at the calabash. Instantly, the tiny calabash became incomparably huge.

“Let’s go up and sit.”

She waved her hand at Su Hao, and Xiao Yuan took the lead to leap onto the gourd and sit in front. This cool and handsome scene was imprinted into Su Hao’s heart, causing his desire to become stronger to increase.

“Brother, hug me!”

Xiao Yuan opened his arms, the word ‘hug’ almost written on his face.

“I can’t.”

Su Hao rejected Little Yuan. Right now, his entire body was covered in sweat. He did not want to get involved with Little Yuan.

“Why? Big brother… big brother doesn’t like Little Yuan?”

However, Little Yuan did not know what he was thinking. She lowered her head in disappointment, her eyes still slightly red, as if she was about to cry at any moment.

“No, no, it’s just that big brother is covered in stinky sweat now. Little Yuan is so fragrant now, it wouldn’t be good if it got on you.”

Seeing that Little Yuan was about to cry, Su Hao hurriedly explained.

“But… but Little Yuan wants Big Brother! Woo!”

Seeing the flustered Su Hao below, Leng Xianxue covered her forehead and said helplessly, “Just hug her. In any case, I’ll have to give her a bath when I get back. Also, if you don’t satisfy this little girl, she’ll keep pestering you.”

“Yeah… well, then.”

Since Leng Xianxue had already said so, Su Hao naturally wouldn’t reject her.

“Big brother is willing to hug Little Yuan? Great!”

‘ They say it’s the sky in June, the face of a child. The ancients were right about me. This was before, and it looked like I was going to cry, but now I’m bouncing around happily.’

After Su Hao held Little Yuan in his arms and couldn’t help but massage him, he squatted down slightly with his legs, then leaped up and landed steadily on the gourd.

“Quick!”

Leng Xianxue formed a hand seal, and a ‘Haste’ word appeared in the air in front of her. Then, it rapidly merged into the gourd.

Soon after, the gourd they were sitting on shook slightly and suddenly rose into the air. In just a moment, it had already flown into the clouds.

“So fast!”

Su Hao sighed, then hugged Little Yuan tighter.

In less than two minutes, the three of them arrived at Su Hao’s address. This time, Leng Xianxue had intentionally slowed down because she wanted to take care of Su Hao and Xiao Yuan. If she wanted to, she could tear through space and arrive here in an instant.

“Thank you, Sister Qianxue.”

In front of Su Hao’s house, he once again thanked Leng Xianxue sincerely. Leng Xianxue had really helped him a lot. Although this was also because she wanted him to enter her academy, regardless of her motives, her help today was really too great for Su Hao.

“Alright, alright. I’m getting calluses from listening to your thanks.”

Leng Xianxue frowned, her beautiful face filled with impatience and disdain.

“Big brother, I like to thank you. Why?”

Little Yuan, who was lying in Su Hao’s arms and refusing to leave, was puzzled.

“Big brother, this is called being polite. You have to thank her for her kindness. You have to be grateful.”

He patted Little Yuan’s head dotingly. The smooth hair made Su Hao feel much better. In addition, Little Yuan looked especially comfortable, making it hard to control him.

Seeing the two of them being so intimate, Leng Xianxue didn’t know why, but she felt a little sour in her heart, as though Little Yuan had been snatched away. In the end, she couldn’t help but cough lightly and say, “Ahem, that’s enough. You two, let’s get down to business.”

Hearing this, Su Hao and Xiaoyuan stopped their banter and looked towards Leng Xianxue, waiting for her to continue.

“After seven days, the Empyrean Terminus Academy will start school. When the time comes, you just need to bring your luggage and come over. I’ll arrange for you to enter a new student class. At that time, you just need to enter school like ordinary students.”

Su Hao nodded, indicating that he understood.

“Alright, it’s time for us to go home.”

As she spoke, she went up and grabbed Xiao Yuan who was in Su Hao’s arms.

“No! No! Little Yuan wants to play with big brother!”

Xiao Yuan hugged Su Hao tightly and refused to let go. But how could a child like her compare to her sister who was in the Body Integration Stage?

Leng Xianxue managed to pry Little Yuan out in just two or three tries. In order to prevent her from messing around, she even clamped her under her armpit.

“Sister bullied me! Waah!”

Seeing that he couldn’t break free, Little Yuan cried out. Sparkling teardrops streaked across his tender cheeks, and that cry pierced Su Hao’s heart.

“Alright, Little Yuan, don’t cry. Little Yuan is already a big child, how can you cry? If others see you, they will laugh at you.”

Su Hao took a few steps forward and gently reached out his hand to wipe away Little Yuan’s tears. He then consoled her, “Furthermore, Big Brother will be going to school in seven days. You can come and play with Big Brother anytime.”

“Really?”

Xiao Yuan asked Su Hao with reddened eyes.

“Of course it’s true. Why would big brother lie to Little Yuan?”

“Then… then pinky swear!”

Then, Little Yuan extended her little finger. Su Hao smiled and also extended his own little finger.

“You’re not allowed to cheat me.”

After pulling the strings, Little Yuan finally revealed that innocent and adorable smile again. Leng Xianxue also heaved a sigh of relief. If Leng Xianyuan were to really cause trouble, she wouldn’t be able to do anything to her. Before her parents died in the Heavenly Tribulation, they had instructed her to take good care of her younger sister. Because of this, she doted on Leng Xianyuan too much and would give her whatever she wanted. If it wasn’t for her parents teaching her well in the past, Little Yuan would have long been spoiled by her.

“Then we’ll head back first.”

Leng Xianxue placed Xiaoyuan down and turned to look at Su Hao.

“Alright, Sister Xianxue. Goodbye, Little Yuan.”

“Goodbye, Big Brother. Remember our agreement!”

“Okay, okay. I won’t forget.”

After bidding farewell to each other, Leng Xianxue sat on the gourd with Xiaoyuan. After that, the gourd transformed into a stream of light and soared into the sky. Not long after, it disappeared from Su Hao’s sight.

“How nice…”

A hint of envy flashed across Su Hao’s eyes. Leng Xianxue’s ability to soar through the skies and burrow through the earth was something he wanted to possess as well. Unknowingly, his desire to become stronger grew stronger.
