Battle Through the Heavens: Clan Leader, I'm sorry, now I just want to be a good person.

Walking on the road in this other world, Xiao Fan felt a strange sense of incongruity looking at these buildings that were both unfamiliar and familiar. One day it was skyscrapers and bustling traffic, and the next day it was ancient architecture and the clash of fighting spirits.

Upon arriving at the back of the mountain, Xiao Fan immediately spotted Xiao Yan lying on the grass. Xiao Yan also heard the footsteps and turned around curiously, as this place was usually deserted.

Upon seeing Xiao Fan, Xiao Yan was also taken aback. Xiao Fan's parents had both died during a mission, but they had preserved the important medicinal herbs of the Xiao family. In addition, Xiao Fan's talent was above average in the family, so Xiao Fan's life in the Xiao family was relatively easy.

But whether it was his glorious past or his current downfall, his interactions with him were pitifully few. Thinking of this, Xiao Yan felt a surge of irritation.

When Xiao Fan saw Xiao Yan turn to look at him, he asked casually, "Did I disturb you?"

Xiao Yan was taken aback by Xiao Fan's words. Usually, everyone in the family would mock and ridicule him, but this was the first time someone had spoken to him like this. Feeling a surge of warmth in his heart, he said, "This isn't a place that belongs solely to me, so there's no question of whether I should disturb you."

Xiao Fan sat down next to Xiao Yan, looked up at the vast and deep starry sky of this other world, and said, "What do you think is outside this starry sky?"

Xiao Yan was taken aback by Xiao Fan's question. Recalling his memories of his past life, he said, "Maybe it's another continent. Maybe they also cultivate Dou Qi. Maybe it's a world without Dou Qi, where people live in peace and prosperity, without riots or magical beasts..." As he spoke, Xiao Yan began to miss the peaceful world of his past life. Unfortunately... he could never go back.

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Fan replied calmly, "Perhaps. I really want to see the world you speak of, what it's like without battle qi."

Xiao Yan found Xiao Fan's reaction quite strange. "Don't you think what I said was a bit vague? I thought you were going to mock me. In the Xiao family, your attitude towards me is quite special."

Xiao Fan glanced at Xiao Yan and smiled slightly.

"They mocked you? They said you were nothing more than a fallen genius?"

Xiao Yan laughed a few times upon hearing Xiao Fan's words.

"I'm not the genius the Xiao family used to be, so why do you still want to get closer to me?"

Xiao Fan smiled and looked at Xiao Yan. "Why do I have to get closer to you? When you were at your peak, I didn't need to flatter you because we came from the same family. Now that you're down on your luck, I don't need to look down on you either, because we still come from the same family."

Xiao Fan stretched his right hand toward the starry sky, as if trying to grasp something, and said, "If we share the same family blood, and all we know is internal strife and mutual mockery, then this family will not go far."

"Besides, are you really just going to accept your fate like this?"

"Like they say, be a good-for-nothing, afraid to take another chance, and spend the rest of your life with that title?"

At the end, Xiao Fan seemed a little agitated. He walked up to Xiao Yan, grabbed Xiao Yan's collar, and asked a question.

After hearing Xiao Fan's words, Xiao Yan suddenly realized that the person before him was the kindred spirit he had been searching for. This world only revered martial prowess and the law of the jungle, and he seemed to be constantly conforming to this world.

But upon hearing the last part, Xiao Yan's excited heart returned to stillness. Avoiding Xiao Fan's gaze, he said, "Then what can I do? I don't even know why my fighting spirit disappeared, so how can I talk about making a comeback?"

After hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Fan released Xiao Yan's hand, slowly walked to the edge of the cliff, and said with his back to Xiao Yan, "Xiao Yan, do you know? From childhood to adulthood, I have always admired you. Not only do I admire your talent that far surpasses that of your peers, and not only do I admire the respect you receive from other members of the family, but I admire you even more for your unwavering determination in the past."

"Three years ago, no matter what difficulties you encountered, you would never say no, you would only persevere and persevere again. They all said you were a fallen genius, but I don't think you were a genius."

Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback by Xiao Fan's words, and then asked after hearing Xiao Fan's evaluation of him, "Am I not a genius?" He then gave a bitter smile. Yes, I am just a piece of trash with only the third level of Dou Qi. What right do I have to call myself a genius?

Xiao Fan heard Xiao Yan's self-deprecating remark and said, "You're not a genius, it's because in my heart you're an unparalleled genius!"

Xiao Fan turned to look at Xiao Yan and said, "You shouldn't be defeated by the small difficulties before you. You should stand up, face the vast sky and the deep starry sky, and roar at them. One day, you will conquer this sky and this world."

"Even if I can't do it, so what? At least I won't have lived in vain."

After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Yan's reaction, Xiao Fan walked straight back the way he came and headed towards his room.

Xiao Yan stood there, Xiao Fan's words still echoing in his mind.

"You should stand up, face the vast sky and the deep starry sky, and roar at them. One day, you will conquer this sky and this world."

"Even if I can't do it, so what? At least I won't have lived in vain."

Xiao Fan's words struck Xiao Yan's heart. Xiao Yan slowly calmed down, his lips slowly parted, and then he laughed loudly: "That's right, I will conquer this world and prove that I was here!"

Xiao Zhan, who had been secretly planning to check on his son, smiled slightly upon hearing Xiao Yan's voice.

He was planning to counsel Yan'er, but it seems unnecessary now. Xiao Zhan's thoughts on the family echoed in his mind, and he felt the youthful passion return. Yes, we share the same blood. A bunch of old guys, not a single young person understands.

Xiao Zhan glanced at the spirited Xiao Yan and gave up the idea of ​​going to find him again.

"Alright, let's give Yan'er a surprise tomorrow. I haven't seen Yanran for a long time since she went to Yunlan Sect to study."

Inside the quaint room, Xiao Xun'er heard Ling Ying's words and said, "Uncle Ying, it seems that the Xiao family is not entirely hopeless; there are still some intelligent people among them."

Ling Ying knew that those who praised Xiao Yan were considered smart by her young mistress, so she pursed her lips and said, "Miss, this kid is indeed quite interesting."

......

So what was Xiao Fan doing at this moment?

He returned to his room early because he knew that after his stimulation, Xiao Yan would definitely be fine.

As an ambitious young man of the 21st century, who wouldn't want to conquer the stars and the sea if they traveled to another world? He didn't believe Xiao Yan could resist the temptation.

As for how to resolve the issue of his disappearing fighting spirit? Once the old master Yao appears, will that even be a problem?

The reason he rushed back to his room was, of course, because the quest notification had been completed, and he needed to hurry up and claim his reward to level up!
