Xiao Yibai brought Mu Xiyue back to the palace. He then said with a smile, "You are really brave. Aren't you afraid of the emperor's anger?"

He heard Mu Xiyue's words outside the door, and every word was in his favor and in defense of him.

Mu Xiyue was also surprised. The emperor was angry at one point, but she could see that the emperor's anger was not very strong, and he was obviously tolerant of her.

"I didn't intend to contradict Father, but then I thought, it's not wrong for me to pretend to be dignified occasionally, but I'll have more opportunities to enter the palace in the future, and it would be annoying to have to pretend every time, so I don't want to pretend anymore. At first, I was just testing Father's tolerance for me. On the one hand, I got a little carried away and wanted to vent my anger for you, but on the other hand, I think Father just wants to be a good father. Maybe he's been in that high position for too long and can't separate the roles of emperor and father."

As an emperor, he certainly would not allow anyone to be so disrespectful to him, but as a father, even if he was dissatisfied with Mu Xiyue's attitude, he could still tolerate it. The most important thing was that the emperor really owed Xiao Yibai among his sons.

Xiao Yibai hadn't expected it to be so lightly revealed, but even if his father wanted to punish Yueyue for disrespect, he wouldn't just sit back and do nothing.

It was already evening, and Mu Xiyue wanted to talk to Xiao Yibai about something she had been thinking about for several days. She wanted to try to activate Xiao Yibai's supernatural powers.

Xiao Yibai had said that the internal strength cultivated by people of this era was closely linked to martial arts. While martial arts techniques required only innate talent and diligent practice, internal strength required both innate talent and hard work over time. Xiao Yibai was only nineteen, and his current achievements were a testament to his exceptional talent. However, compared to some middle-aged masters who achieved fame early in life, he still lacked the necessary maturity.

Mu Xiyue had some reservations about Xiao Yibai at first, but now that they have been together for so long, she feels that she can completely trust him. If he can activate his special powers, it will be a great advantage. Even if he meets a master with stronger martial arts than him, he will have a chance of winning.

Xiao Yibai was surprised to hear Mu Xiyue say she wanted to try to stimulate his supernatural powers. "Didn't you say you were afraid it would have a counter-effect on me?"

Mu Xiyue certainly wouldn't say she didn't completely trust you before. She smiled and said, "So it's up to you to decide. There are four possible outcomes. First, no superpowers are activated, and there's no impact on your current martial arts and internal strength. In other words, there's no change. Second, no superpowers are activated, and your current internal strength may be damaged. Of course, this is the worst outcome."

Mu Xiyue had indeed imagined what might happen if this outcome occurred, which was why she had been thinking about it for several days but had not brought it up.

"Third, your superpowers are activated, but your original internal strength is gone. This isn't a bad outcome, at least you have superpowers. Fourth, and this is the best outcome, your superpowers are activated, but they don't affect your current internal strength. The superpowers and internal strength combine, doubling your strength."

After listening to Mu Xiyue's analysis, Xiao Yibai thought about it and realized that opportunities and risks coexist, but opportunities outweigh risks.

"Yueyue, I want to give it a try. I'm so lucky to have met you, maybe God is blessing me!"

Mu Xiyue nodded. "Okay, let's try it. The body will feel uncomfortable when activating it. The discomfort caused by activating different abilities is also different. My ability is activated naturally, so the physical sensation may be different from that of activating it with potions."

At that time, Xiaotao felt dizzy, but nothing else happened to her.

He took out a potion from the space and injected it into the deltoid muscle of his arm.

It was a quarter of an hour later that Xiao Yibai felt something strange, and his whole body was aching like being pricked by needles.

Even if the superpowers fail to be activated, the body will not feel any discomfort. Generally, it will take effect five minutes after the injection. Mu Xiyue almost thought that Xiao Yibai could not activate his superpowers, but she didn't expect that it took a quarter of an hour for Xiao Yibai to respond.

"Abai, how are you? How do you feel?"

Xiao Yibai forced himself to smile while suppressing the pain all over his body. "It feels like my whole body is being pricked by needles. It hurts and is numb. It's okay. I can bear it."

After listening to his description, Mu Xiyue roughly knew what kind of supernatural powers he could unleash.

"If you bear it for a while, you might be able to gain the power of thunder."

The pain continued, and Xiao Yibai suddenly felt like a fire was burning in his body. Soon his face turned red as if he had a fever, his whole body was hot, and he became a little confused.

Mu Xiyue just held his hand and stayed with him. This kind of discomfort could not be repaired by healing magic, so he could only endure it.

It was dark outside and Uncle Fu came to ask if he wanted food, but Xiao Yibai still hadn't recovered.

Mu Xiyue asked Uncle Fu to instruct the kitchen to cook some porridge and prepare some light dishes, and serve the meal in half an hour.

Calculating the time, Xiao Yibai should be almost there in half an hour. Judging from his body's reaction, he has at least two supernatural powers, thunder and fire.

There are quite a few people with dual superpowers in the apocalypse, accounting for one twentieth of all people with superpowers. It is not surprising that Xiao Yibai can stimulate two superpowers.

Just as Mu Xiyue thought, half an hour later Xiao Yibai gradually regained consciousness. The pain in his body had disappeared and he no longer had a fever. However, the burning pain from an hour and a half made him feel a little exhausted.

The weakness caused by the activation of this supernatural power can be recovered by a good sleep. Xiao Yibai took a bath before having dinner.

"How are you? Are you okay? Don't rush into testing your abilities yet. Get a good night's sleep tonight. I'll accompany you to the farm tomorrow to try again."

Xiao Yibai's face was still a little pale, and he really didn't have much strength. He drank a bowl of porridge, sat for a quarter of an hour, and then went to bed.

The next day, the two of them went to the farm outside the city without any guards.

Xiao Yibai was in a very happy mood. Not only did his supernatural powers get activated, but it also did not cause any damage to his original internal strength. He even felt that his internal strength had improved compared to before.

After arriving at the back of the manor, Mu Xiyue taught Xiao Yibai how to use his supernatural powers.

As Mu Xiyue had guessed, Xiao Yibai activated his thunder and fire abilities.

There is still space for crystal cores to upgrade the thunder power. Mu Xiyue's thunder power is already level four, and the crystal cores in the space are not enough for her to upgrade to the next level, so she kept them and did not absorb them.

There are also quite a few crystal cores of fire power, which she collected and planned to exchange for the crystal cores she needed. Now they can be used to upgrade Xiao Yibai.

"Your current ability is at the initial level one. To reach level two, you just need to use and practice more. Xiaotao's wind ability reached level three entirely through practice. You can try to practice more. The higher the level, the harder it is to upgrade. I still have crystal cores for upgrading in my space. I'll give them to you when you reach level two or three. They can at least raise you by one level. We used to use crystal cores to upgrade after reaching level two. It's difficult to upgrade from level two to level three just by practicing. Xiaotao is considered very lucky."

Xiao Yibai smiled brightly, "Okay! Yueyue, I feel like there's a small space in my head."

Mu Xiyue was delighted. "Really? Then try to put something in. Just think about it in your mind. If you want to take something out, just think about what you want to take out."

Xiao Yibai drew out the soft sword from his waist and silently chanted "retract", and the soft sword in his hand disappeared.
