Chapter 5 - Zuo Xiaonian's Tribulation

 

Zuo Xiaoduo was momentarily stunned.

Zuo Xiaonian, is dying?

From young till now, Xiaonian sis, who has been taking care of him in every possible way… will die in two and a half months? Seeing the beautiful face in front of him that was weeping and heartbroken for him, Zuo Xiaoduo only felt suffocated in that instant.

Why was such a line of words appearing in front of me?

What is this?

Zuo Xiaoduo hurriedly asked: “Xiaonian sis, are you going to break through the Yin yang realm in two and half months? Breakthrough Danyuan stage?”

Zuo Xiaonian was already choking back tears, Zuo Xiaoduo’s tears had made her already aching heart twitch. She only felt that her heart shattered and she was devastated. As soon as she heard, in a heartbeat’s moment, she lifted her head and looked at Zuo Xiaoduo with red eyes, sobbing: “How did you know?”

She came back to her senses after asking, wiping her tears, she cautiously asked again: “How do you know it’s two and a half months later?”. Suddenly, she had completely recollected herself and her beautiful eyes widened in an instant.

The surprise Zuo Xiaonian felt deep down was extraordinary

There were a lot of people who knew about her attempt to break through the Yin yang realm; this was an indisputable fact because her level of cultivation was evident.

However, everyone only knows that it should be in the upcoming recent periods or a month later at the very most. But another month later, they still planned to spread fake news and false information, continuing to confuse the enemy.

The specific time and location mustn’t be disclosed as this was a matter of life and death.

A martial artist breaking through the Danyuan stage is a major barrier; in other words, the road to becoming the strongest would be completely open past then.

The Danyuan realm is the realm of the martial arts grandmaster in the eyes of ordinary civilians.

And the younger you break through this realm, the brighter your future for development; Zuo Xiaonian was only nineteen years old this year, and she could already breakthrough the Danyuan stage at the moment. This was considered to be an unprecedented development within the Central Plains in the millennium!

If the breakthrough is a success, it will inevitably leave a new chapter in history.

The nineteen-year-old Danyuan realm! A nineteen-year-old, teenage girl grandmaster!

It would be a revolutionary miracle that will shock the world.

Therefore, this news will attract people’s attention and it will not be good-natured.

Naturally, some people will harbor ill intentions, who doesn’t wish that Xiaonian could successfully breakthrough!

Most normal assassinations will be very difficult to succeed, especially in the city that Zuo Xiaonian is familiar with, it would be too easy for her to escape and avoid; there is even a possibility of a counter retaliation.

But in the process of breaking through, especially at the critical moment of breaking through the Pingjing stage, even a scream from an ordinary person is sufficient to cause the martial artist’s internal breath to be disordered, causing obsessive derangement!

If you wish to assassinate a genius like her, undoubtedly, that would be the prime moment to do so!

Yet Zuo Xiaonian’s breakthrough date, till this very moment, remained as biggest top secret with Phoenix city!

As far as Zuo Xiaonian knew, there were only two people aware of this!

One was Zuo Xiaonian herself, and the other was Zuo Xiaonian’s master.

Even the usage of the Star Source room was now arranged with great detail and had no loopholes, there was no proof and signs that Zuo Xiaonian was going to use it.

Zuo Xiaonian felt shocked and paranoid.

How did Zuo Xiaoduo find out?

Was this just a wild guess?

But that guess was a little too accurate though…

  ……

Seeing Zuo Xiaonian’s reaction, Zuo Xiaoduo’s heart was cold!

The content of that line turned out to be true?!

With a trace of hope, Zuo Xiaoduo tested: “In… Gold crystal chambers in Star Martial Academy?”

“!!!”

Zuo Xiaonian straightened her body suddenly, her cute eyes widened, and her beautiful eyes were filled with shock!

He does know!

The Star Martial Academy Star Crystal Chamber was the final decision after long consideration by herself and her Master. To avoid being disturbed, they didn't even use the best three chambers: Jade Crystal Chamber, Sky Crystal Chamber, and Soul Crystal Chamber!

Instead, they settled on the relatively ordinary Star crystal room!

This was top secret information!

She has never told anymore, her master herself values this process as important as her own life, and would only be more careful than her.

But, how does Xiaoduo know?

Zuo Xiaonian’s complexion began to ashen.

Turning around, she hoarsely replied: “Not necessarily, everything is still undecided for now.”

Perhaps she could lie to others with this sentence but Zuo Xiaoduo grew up with her and he could read her like a book. Zuo Xiaonian was lying!

Otherwise, she would not turn around.

He was right.

Zuo Xiaoduo only felt that his whole heart was sinking gradually.

Using the physiognomy skill from his consciousness, he carefully studied Zuo Xiaonian’s face and saw that there was a faint black line, slowly gathering between her eyebrows.

The black energy in the Yintang (The middle acupuncture point in the middle of the eyebrows) gradually fills up, rising vigorously and stretching downwards endlessly. Is this… the face of death?!

Zuo Xiaoduo’s heart was chaotic, what should I say for her to believe me?

I am just a martial apprentice now… what should I do to prevent Xiaonian from dying?

"Well, actually does it matter if you breakthrough in advance or postpone it?" Zuo Xiaoduo said dryly, "… or it might be advisable to prepare more."

Zuo Xiaonian let go of the doubts in her heart, smiled sweetly and said, "Don't worry about me. But you… little doggo… why were you crying so sadly earlier?"

Zuo Xiaonian had already made up her mind.

She decided to go back to the Star Martial Academy tomorrow, to discuss this matter with her master, and what on earth went wrong?

"I wasn’t crying, I just lost functions of my eyes… " Zuo Xiaoduo also suppressed the matter to the bottom of his heart. Now that he knew, he couldn’t do anything about it. In any case, they must resolve this matter!

But now it was useless to keep talking about it.

The sky began to darken.

Zuo Xiaonian frowned and lied on Zuo Xiaoduo's bedside, thinking about what was going on, feeling her head aching; Xiaoduo couldn't cultivate, how was he able to change his aptitude level? Those elixirs that can change aptitude levels were no longer available on the market. It hasn't made an appearance for a long time, and occasionally some have been secretly traded between the big household tribes, and any news would be discreet…

What to do?

There is also… how did Xiaoduo know what he had breakthrough inexplicably? Where was the problem?

  ……

Zuo Xiaoduo was also feeling melancholy.

How do I explain this? How do I know about this? And what idea can I think of? Besides… from now on it seems that he was able to cultivate, so what should I do?

Zuo Xiaoduo never thought that he was truly a useless imbecile.

When his Star soul awakened, Zuo Xiaoduo knew that although his aptitude was not good, it was not rubbish. However, his dream began to appear sporadically, and then the Star Soul suddenly became half-dead, and the martial apprentice stage could not be broken through, pacing back and forth repeatedly.

Especially after the strange and incomplete jade pendant appeared, no matter how hard he tried, it became harder to make progress with his cultivation, and even regressed.

Zuo Xiaoduo understood very well that he was not diligent, but he was a martial apprentice four years ago. How could it be possible to regress after four years of hard work? It just didn't make sense.

Now that all the restrictions have been lifted, Zuo Xiaoduo can already feel that the star power between heaven and earth, began to rush fanatically into his body, with the movement of his spiritual power!

It was like a desert that has dried up for a long time, drawing water relentlessly, and it seemed to be speeding up over time.

The barrier for a martial apprentice crossed over to the level of a martial artist was already brimming violently, and it could break open at any time…

  …………

Wu Yuting and Zuo Changlu both walked together while talking. They both had their eyebrows scrunched.

  ……

Both sister and brother lowered their heads pondering about problems, finally, they heard a voice at the door followed by the slamming close of the door.

Immediately hearing Wu Yuting’s voice: “Doggo! Has your sister came back?”

Zuo Xiaoduo lifelessly walked to the entrance: “Your highness… can you not call me a dog… my sister is in my room!”

Wu Yuting suddenly heightened her senses on alert: “What are you two doing? Doggo, I warn you, you… ”

Zuo Xiaonian rushed out flushed in her cheeks: “Mom! What are you thinking?”

When the two came out, they were met directly with Zuo Changlu and Wu Yuting’s suspicious gaze on the both of them.

“Don’t create problems!”

Zuo Changlu warned.

“Be honest!”

Wu Yuting warned.

“I hate you guys!” Zuo Xiaonian rushed into her room flushed.

Behind Zuo Xiaonian, there was a speechless Zuo Xiaoduo, looking at his parents with lifeless eyes.

“Dinner’s ready!”

Wu Yuting didn’t notice anything abnormal, so she exhaled a sigh of relief. Then she rolled her eyes and twisted Zuo Changlu in the arm: "You dad doesn’t even believe in his son and daughter. It’s too much. I have never seen a father like you!" as she turned vivaciously away.

Zuo Changlu was a little daunted and confused.

Was I the one who said it?

Weren’t you the one who shouted the loudest earlier?

  ……

During dinner, Zuo Changlu said: "Xiaonian, during this period, you don't have to come home every day. It’s better if you stayed in Star Martial Academy during your critical period, and ask your master more for advice."

Zuo Xiaonian smiled light-heartedly: “It’s okay, everything has been taken care of.”

She looked at her parents and Zuo Xiaoduo with a deep longing in her beautiful eyes. Breaking through the Yin yang realm, you will die if you fail. Although you are confident and competent, there is always murphy’s law.

If that somehow happens, then this period would be the last few moments of bliss that she could spend with the family.

  ……

Zuo Xiaoduo was scooping rice, at the same time he was channel energy into his eyes, feeling the gush of coolness rushing into his eyes, which was already much weaker than before. Then he looked over at his parent’s faces.

Let’s take a look at Dad and Mom’s fates so that he was mentally prepared.

At first glance, Zuo Xiaoduo suddenly looked confused.

Zuo Changlu’s face… had nothing?

Let’s look at mother instead.

Wu Yuting’s face… also nothing?

Zuo Xiaoduo was instantly confuzzled.

What’s happening?

Where were the words?

He had exhausted the coolness but he still wasn’t able to see anything.

Could he have lost this ability which he had just painstakingly acquired?

He glanced around, Zuo Changlu finally couldn’t resist anymore. He put down his chopsticks, faced Zuo Xiaoduo directly. He sat upright, raised his head, and stared quietly.

“Dad, why are you staring at me like this?”

Zuo Changlu smiled superficially: “I think you keep staring as though you have never seen your old man before, so I am just letting you study in greater detail.”

“Look closely, this is your father!”
