The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

Bai Xiang'er was originally just a minor character, someone he rarely had contact with, which is why he didn't have time to have any pure love with her. Now that she's acting this way, it suits him just fine!

"What are you laughing at? Do you feel unworthy of me, so you're having a mental breakdown?" Bai Xiang'er asked in surprise.

"No, that's not it. What I'm laughing at is that someone might be in trouble tonight," Chen Xuan said meaningfully.

"Oh? So you got angry and humiliated after your advances were rejected, and you're planning to attack me?" Bai Xiang'er sneered.

"Try out whatever moves you have, or if you lose and cry, don't say I bullied you, you silly support!"

Chen Xuan shook his head.

"No, no, no, I'm afraid that if I make a move, you won't have a chance to make a move. Otherwise, you should make the first move!"

"You're arrogant!"

Bai Xiang'er put down the book in her hand, several halos appeared behind her, and then she instantly turned into a blur and rushed towards Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan smiled indifferently and waited for her to arrive. Bai Xiang'er, seeing this, became even more furious.

You're just a support player, what gives you the right?! Because you're handsome?

Bai Xiang'er rushed towards Chen Xuan like a ghost, her short sword aimed straight for his throat. However, Chen Xuan simply sidestepped, dodging the attack.

Seeing this, Bai Xiang'er immediately changed her attack, thrusting her short sword several times like a whirlwind, but Chen Xuan easily dodged them all.

Chen Xuan's lips curled up slightly. He had figured out Bai Xiang'er's attack pattern; she always won by speed.

Of course, this also fits the original setting, since he was originally a speed-type assassin.

"Since you're fast..."

Chen Xuan muttered to himself, then flashed and instantly appeared behind Bai Xiang'er.

Bai Xiang'er sensed something was wrong and tried to turn around to defend herself, but it was too late. Chen Xuan struck out with his palm, hitting Bai Xiang'er squarely in the back and sending her flying.

Bai Xiang'er fell heavily to the ground, staring at Chen Xuan in astonishment. She never expected that this seemingly handsome support would possess such strength.

What defeated her was her greatest strength: speed!

Chen Xuan calmly walked up to Bai Xiang'er, squatted down, and said with a smile, "Do you want to continue?"

Bai Xiang'er gritted her teeth and struggled to her feet. She knew she was no match for Chen Xuan, but her pride prevented her from admitting defeat.

"Pah! I haven't lost yet!" Bai Xiang'er screamed, lunging at Chen Xuan again. This time she used all her strength, moving even faster than before.

A hint of admiration flashed in Chen Xuan's eyes, but his movements remained calm and unhurried. With a sidestep, he easily dodged Bai Xiang'er's attack, grabbed her wrist, and flung her away.

Bai Xiang'er slammed heavily against the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood. She struggled to her feet, still wanting to attack Chen Xuan again, her eyes filled with anger and stubbornness.

She was angry at herself.

Looking at the stubborn girl, Chen Xuan felt a pang of pity. He slowly stepped forward and said softly, "You've already done your best. You don't need to push yourself any further."

Bai Xiang'er looked up at Chen Xuan, tears streaming down her face. She bit her lip, remaining silent.

“You lost this match,” Chen Xuan said. “But if you’re willing, I can teach you some techniques to make you stronger.”

Bai Xiang'er was stunned. She originally thought Chen Xuan would laugh at her or humiliate her directly, but she did not expect him to say such a thing.

"Why...why are you helping me?" Bai Xiang'er asked.

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "Because I see your potential. And I don't want you to give up because of failure."

"Of course, the most important thing is... you really have potential."

"Where are you looking?!" The girl's pale face flushed red, and she was both ashamed and angry.

"Ahem!" Chen Xuan couldn't help but blush.

"Actually, I was looking at your innate talent. Your innate talent is excellent, making you a promising candidate for cultivation!"

Chen Xuan looked at Bai Xiang'er seriously: "I can help you improve your strength and become a true powerhouse. But the prerequisite is that you must unconditionally trust me, obey my orders, and listen to my words."

"You? You're just a support character, what makes you think you can help me become a strong person?"

"You!" Chen Xuan took out a pill and tried to feed it to Bai Xiang'er, but she refused. He then forced it on her.

"It seems you've been led astray by this so-called Monster Academy!"

"You, what do you mean?"

"This is the world of cultivation, not the so-called... Immortal Soul Realm!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiang'er was greatly shocked.

She finally understood why she had lost! Chen Xuan hadn't used any of the skills the Immortal Soul had given him from beginning to end!

His immortal soul is merely an auxiliary element; he himself is not!

"There's nothing wrong with immortal souls in themselves; they're a way for people to increase their strength, which is perfectly acceptable."

"However, you academics have abandoned your own cultivation abilities! You've made a grave mistake by relying too much on your immortal souls!"

"I..." Bai Xiang'er was speechless.

After a moment's hesitation, she finally nodded.

"Okay, I promise you."

Seeing this, Chen Xuan nodded in satisfaction.

"Then let's go."

"Now?"

"Are you going to wait until tomorrow, until everyone discovers where you are, before you leave?"

"I, I didn't mean that! I just... I still have a lot of clothes I didn't bring!" Bai Xiang'er quickly explained.

"This is simple."

Bai Xiang'er felt a sudden dizziness, and when she came to her senses, she was already in Chen Xuan's arms.

Just as she was about to speak, an even more shocking scene unfolded.

With a wave of his hand, Chen Xuan made her entire courtyard vanish!

"You... what kind of methods are you using?!"

Chen Xuan did not answer, but instead gradually brought the entire Bai family into the Secret Spirit Continent.

"What have you done? Where has my Bai family gone?!"

"What's the rush? I'll take you there right now!" Chen Xuan said, then carried Bai Xiang'er away and disappeared.

......

After some explanation, Bai Xiang'er finally understood just how capable the man holding her was!

"You, you have such great abilities, why would you do this to me..." Bai Xiang'er asked cautiously.

Now she's not so arrogant anymore.

"Because you are special."

"What's so special about me...?"

"Shh, it would be impolite to ask again."

"Oh."

"So, what are we going to do next?"

"So, next, I think we need to conduct a practical training exercise."

Bai Xiang'er looked at Chen Xuan with a puzzled expression and asked, "Combat training?"

“That’s right, it’s real combat training!” Chen Xuan smiled wickedly.
