Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor Yan, please restrain yourself; your elder brother is truly hones

"You're a lecher too." Thinking of some of the contents of the letter home, Xun'er's pretty face flushed.

Some of the straightforward verses made her feel warm whenever she thought about them, and she really liked them. She would often look at the bright moon and think of her beloved.

Now that they've finally met again, she tries very hard to remain reserved and doesn't throw herself into his arms.

"When will Brother Yuan leave this time?" Xun'er asked, her hands behind her back and her head tilted.

"I still have military duties to attend to. I only came back this time because I was being transferred and was passing through Wutan City. I just happened to come back to visit, but I must return to the barracks within five days. If I want to take a long leave, it will take some more time." Zhang Yuan took the initiative to reach out and grasp Xun'er's soft hand.

The girl only struggled symbolically for a moment before letting the other person hold her.

"It's been two years since I've been back. Would Xun'er be willing to show me around?" Zhang Yuan asked.

Xun'er tossed her hair, looked at her hand, and said, "Can Xun'er refuse?"

"Of course not," Zhang Yuan said domineeringly.

He took Xun'er's hand and they strolled around the Xiao family's house.

The place he had lived in for thirteen years would not feel unfamiliar just because he had been away for two years.

The two held hands and stopped to chat with many acquaintances they encountered along the way.

The perfect couple, a match made in heaven, are just like they were back then, making them seem like a perfect pair and causing countless young men and women to feel heartbroken.

Some time later, the two arrived at the cliff behind the mountain. Watching the clouds drift by in the distance, they felt a rare sense of peace.

"Xun'er, this is for you. You can look at it when you miss me." Zhang Yuan took out a bracelet and handed it to Xun'er.

This is the magic core of a third-tier magical beast, the Flamingo, which he hunted. Wearing it can slightly increase the cultivation speed for those with fire-attribute battle qi.

For Xun'er's status, this was just a trinket, but for the Xiao family, it was a rare treasure.

Zhang Yuan's gift was absolutely sincere.

"Thank you, Brother Yuan." Xun'er happily accepted the bracelet and put it on her wrist.

"Does it look good?" Xun'er asked, raising her wrist.

"Beautiful, the bracelet is beautiful, and you are even more beautiful," Zhang Yuan exclaimed sincerely.

Xun'er smiled gently, flipped her wrist and took out a scroll, handing it to Zhang Yuan. She said with a hint of nervousness, "It would be impolite not to reciprocate. Brother Yuan, you won't refuse Xun'er's gift, will you?"

Zhang Yuan opened the scroll and glanced at it, his pupils shrinking slightly.

This is actually a low-level Earth-rank lightning-attribute cultivation technique called the Heavenly Thunder Technique. It is compatible with all lightning-attribute battle qi techniques, which means he can directly switch to cultivating it now.

If news of this technique were to spread, the entire Gama Empire, and even the surrounding empires, would be thrown into turmoil.

All I can say is that she truly deserves to be called the number one rich and beautiful woman in the Dou Qi Continent.

"Thank you, Xun'er." Zhang Yuan accepted the cultivation technique.

Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief, a look of surprise in her beautiful eyes, and chuckled, "I thought you would refuse, Brother Yuan."

“I do want to refuse,” Zhang Yuan said seriously. “As a man who values ​​his reputation and self-respect, I don’t want to accept favors from women, but I know that you, Xun’er, are no ordinary person. The fact that you can so casually take out a rank-earth cultivation technique is proof of that.”

"To be worthy of you, I used to think I had to become at least a Dou Zong, but now it seems that even becoming a Dou Zun might not be enough."

"In that case, I will naturally seize every opportunity to become stronger, even if the opportunity comes from you."

"More than what others say about me relying on women, I'm afraid of losing you one day, Xun'er."

Zhang Yuan looked at Xun'er, his tone earnest and affectionate.

"Brother Yuan."

Xun'er abandoned her reserve and threw herself into Zhang Yuan's arms.

A smile appeared on Zhang Yuan's lips.

Just kidding, I earned my living through my own abilities, why should I be ashamed?

That's awesome!

Chapter 9: Xun'er's Deadly Question

Xun'er's initiative was exactly what Zhang Yuan had expected.

Under normal circumstances, Xun'er, as the daughter of the most noble ancient imperial clan in this world, would be a favored daughter of heaven pursued by countless top talents of the continent's leading forces.

Even if her father wanted to give her a simple childhood (because she had fused with the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame from a young age, she could not grow up as strong as the strongest geniuses in the clan, so it was better for her to grow up in a small place and incidentally plot the Emperor Jade), the Dou Di bloodline would still give her some divinity, and she would look down on others.

Aloofness is her normal state; her distant attitude towards others is her true nature; gentleness is only shown to those she cares about, which is the humanity she retains; and being understanding is her nature.

This kind of woman is the white moonlight of countless men, but she is also the most difficult woman for men to pursue under normal circumstances, because you can't cater to her preferences or prescribe the right medicine for her.

However, if you can win her heart, she might even give up her pride and self-respect, and even some principles for you.

Lang rides a bamboo horse to get around the bed to get green plums.

They lived together in Changgan Lane, and the two children had no suspicions of each other.

He and the girl were childhood sweethearts, and he successfully won her heart.

"Xun'er, don't worry."

"If becoming a Dou Zong isn't enough, I'll become a Dou Zun."

"If becoming a Dou Zun is not feasible, then I will become a Dou Sheng (a flawed Supreme Being, unable to use the Supreme Dharma Body and the Supreme Sea)."

"If the Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) is not enough, then I will give it a try, even if it is the legendary Dou Di (Battle Emperor)."

Feeling the soft warmth in his arms, Zhang Yuan made a bold statement, his tone quite confident.

If some powerful people heard this, they might think he was ignorant and overconfident, like a frog in a well.

But only he knew in his heart that as long as Xiao Yan rose to power smoothly, he could become a Dou Sheng even while lying at home.

What's more, he has a cheat code and a "plot" prophet. If he can't become a Dou Di even with the two complementing each other, he might as well just slit his throat and commit suicide now.

"I believe you, Brother Yuan."

Xun'er had no doubt whatsoever; she trusted Zhang Yuan completely.

Zhang Yuan stared at Xun'er's watery eyes and pink lips, a strong impulse rising within him.

He lowered his head, wanting to kiss her.

Xun'er's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively closed her eyes.

But the next moment, a powerful aura suddenly appeared, causing Xun'er to instinctively take a step back.

"Were you serious about taking a step back?"

Zhang Yuan was not hurt by Xun'er's actions, but instantly regained his senses.

Wanting to kiss Xun'er in front of Ling Ying, who's just a tool, is wishful thinking.

As a child, he secretly won Xun'er's heart by a twist of fate, which already drove her crazy.

"Brother Yuan, Xun'er has a question for you." Xun'er's hands were clasped together behind her back, her black hair fluttering in the wind, making her look even more youthful and beautiful.

But the question she asked sent a chill down Zhang Yuan's spine.

"Between Xun'er and Little Fairy Doctor, who do you think is prettier, Brother Yuan?!"

Good heavens, how did Xun'er know about the existence of Little Fairy Doctor?

I only met Little Fairy Doctor by chance when I went to the Monster Mountain Range for training. We lived together for a few months, but we never officially defined our relationship.

That's right, it must be Ling Ying, the Dou Huang powerhouse that the ancient clan finally managed to find, who was responsible for running errands for Xun'er.

The reason he dared to go out and have fun was because he guessed that Xun'er would definitely have Ling Ying protect him in secret, and he had also done some tests to confirm this while training in the Monster Mountain Range.

He must have snitched!

But I couldn't say anything yet.

"Ahem, Xun'er, I still need to resolve the issue of Brother Yan's inability to cultivate. I'll leave for a while, and we'll talk again at dinner tonight." Zhang Yuan turned and slipped away.

Admitting defeat outright is definitely not an option; that would sow the seeds of future problems.

However, he didn't have the confidence to be domineering for the time being, so he could only use the tactic of "delaying".

Fortunately, Xun'er didn't delve into it. She smiled and watched him leave with a teasing look in her eyes.

Once Zhang Yuan's figure disappeared, a man dressed in black robes suddenly appeared beside Xun'er, kneeling on one knee and saying, "Miss, there is something I don't understand."

"You speak!" Xun'er turned to look at the rolling clouds, her demeanor becoming aloof, her eyes as calm as an ancient well.

"Why don't you investigate Little Fairy Doctor's matter further?" Ling Ying asked.

His question was already presumptuous and showed a lack of respect for hierarchy.

If he were still in the ancient clan, the clan rules and punishments alone would be enough to give him a hard time.

However, he was handpicked by Gu Yuan to "protect" Xun'er, but he was careless and let Xun'er fall in love with a "country boy," which is a capital offense.

When Zhang Yuan went out to train, Xun'er sent him to secretly protect him. Heaven knows how happy he was when he discovered that Zhang Yuan was flirting with a new woman. He immediately reported it to Xun'er, hoping that she would be disappointed in Zhang Yuan and thus sever her feelings for him.

However, Xun'er wrote to him, urging him to protect her diligently and observe whether the woman Zhang Yuan was hooking up with was reliable. If she was reliable, he should leave her alone; if not, he should kill her.

Why be so tolerant?

"Why delve into this?" Xun'er didn't care about Ling Ying's overstepping his bounds and said calmly, "I'll be returning to my family after I come of age. How likely do you think Brother Yuan will appear before me then?"

Xun'er is the patriarch of an ancient clan, the daughter of a nine-star peak Dou Sheng, and is destined to stand at the pinnacle of the Dou Qi Continent in the future.

To see her in the future, one would need at least the strength of a Dou Zun, and to marry her, one would need the strength of a Dou Sheng.

If the Xiao clan hadn't declined, and Zhang Yuan was a direct descendant of the Xiao clan, he would still have had a chance.

As for now, it's almost impossible!

"I understand." Ling Ying felt that she had figured out the key points.

Xun'er likes Zhang Yuan, that's true, but she rationally knows that the two are not a good match and can never be together in the end.

That's why she didn't care if Zhang Yuan found a new woman.

"Mm," Xun'er replied casually.

Ling Ying understood?

You don't understand a thing!
