âWho would have thought that in just 2 months, lil sisâ Chilling Qi would have become so powerful.â Xiao Yun slightly frowned. Luckily, he had returned in time â if he were 10 days to half a month late, things would have been much worse. Now, Xiao LingâErâs Chilling Qi couldnât be suppressed by merely fire-type medicines anymore.
The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow marvelled, âYour little sisterâs bodyâs constitution is quite special, although youâre not too shabby either since you can absorb this Chilling Qi. Who would have thought that in such a crappy place, your brother and sister would both have such special constitutions? How strange!â
âHow is my sisterâs constitution special?â Xiao Yun asked as he raised an eyebrow.
âHer constitutionâs very strange â itâs a constitution of extreme darkness and extreme coldness, and such a constitution is one in a million,â the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow replied.
Xiao Yun frowned as he asked, âOne in a million constitution? Is that good or bad?â
The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow said in a serious tone, âIf it can be controlled, it would naturally be good. With some guidance, she could become a sovereign who could look down on the Nine Heavens. If it cannot be controlled and she canât use this Chilling Qi, itâll corrode her from the insides, and no one will be able to save her. Even if itâs you, it would be incredibly difficult for you to extract the Chilling Qi for her in future.â
âItâs that serious?â A look of worry appeared in Xiao Yunâs eyes. The Chilling Qi within his little sisterâs body was indeed becoming stronger and stronger at almost an exponential rate. Unless his Martial Spirit grew at the same rate, it would be difficult for him to keep the Chilling Qi under control. Moreover, in future, it would be difficult for him to go away for extended periods of time â who knew when Xiao LingâErâs Chilling Qi would explode out, freeze her meridians, and end her life. Xiao Yun felt quite solemn.
âDo you have any problems to solve this?â Xiao Yun asked the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow.
The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow seemed incredibly profound and knowledgeable as it replied, âItâs actually quite simple. If you can find a suitable technique for your little sister to train in, it can change the situation. Heheh, her achievements might be no less than yours in future.â
Xiao Yunâs expression eased as he asked, âA suitable technique? What sort of technique?â
When he heard there was hope for his little sister, he became incredibly excited.
âIt needs to be a top-tier, cold-type technique,â the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow said. âNormal techniques wonât be able to control this Chilling Qi, and wonât be able to change anything.â
âThen do you have any techniques like that?â Xiao Yun hurriedly asked.
âNo,â the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow replied.
âWhatâs the point of saying all that if you donât have one?â Xiao Yun felt quite speechless. He had thought the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow would have something.
The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow retorted, âI, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow, am a fire-type divine beast, so naturally, I wouldnât train in any cold-type techniques. Notwithstanding that, you can still go and find some! There are super sects in the Heavenly Capital Domain that specialise in Chilling Qi techniques; Iâm sure youâll be able to find suitable techniques for your little sister there.â
âI donât even know when Iâll be able to go to the Heavenly Capital Domain, and I donât know if sheâll be able to survive until then,â Xiao Yun sighed. The Heavenly Capital Domain was too far from the Moonwind Kingdom as it was millions of miles away, and it contained countless dangerous regions between.
âThen find a technique in this crappy little place,â the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow calmly replied.
âLooks like thatâs my only option,â Xiao Yun sighed as he continued to extract the Chilling Qi for his little sister.
This Chilling Qi was extremely cold, and seemed as if it could freeze the heavens and the earth. If Fang Hao was present, even he would be greatly shocked.
This was because the Chilling Qi that Fang Haoâs Martial Spirit gave off couldnât even be compared to the Chilling Qi coming from Xiao LingâErâs body. As Xiao Yunâs Martial Spirit continued to extract the Chilling Qi, a new jade-green sub-branch appeared on the Martial Spirit. Chilling Qi and fog surrounded it. Evidently, it had been created through the absorption of the Chilling Qi.
Now, the Martial Spirit had 3 sub-branches.
When Xiao Yun arrived, Xiao LingâEr had lost consciousness, and now that the Chilling Qi was greatly reduced, the young girl gradually awoke.
âBig bro, youâre back.â The girl blinked, her eyes hazy as tears rolled out of her eyes.
âMm.â Xiao Yun nodded. He felt an ache in his heart when he saw how weak and frail his litter sister looked.
âBig bro, LingâEr thought that you left her behind.â Xiao LingâEr tried to get up as she blinked and sprang towards the youth. She wrapped her arms around him tightly and refused to let go as she sobbed. Xiao Yun felt a sadness within his heart at how pitiful she looked.
âSilly little sis, how could I leave you behind?â Xiao Yunâs heart twinged with pain and he felt incredibly sorrowful. He could only imagine just how lonely she had been in the 2 months that he had been gone.
âWuu, big brother, please donât leave LingâEr behind anymore.â Xiao LingâEr tightly held on to Xiao Yun, her eyes glimmering as tears rolled out of them, as if the youth would leave her, leaving her with no support.
âDonât worry, LingâEr, big bro wonât leave you in future.â Xiao Yun slowly wiped the girlâs tears as he deeply breathed in and said, âDonât worry, big brother will find a way to get rid of this evil Chilling Qi so you can grow up happily.â
âMm.â Xiao LingâEr nodded, seeming extremely lovable and cute.
During these 3 months, her Chilling Qi had acted up 3 times. The first 2 times, she had suppressed the Chilling Qi using the fire-type medicines, but she still suffered greatly. This time, she directly fainted.
The feelings of loneliness and helplessness firmly imprinted themselves on the soul of this 15-year-old girl; it made her never want to separate from Xiao Yun again.
âHere, have a look at the present big bro brought back for you.â Xiao Yun let go of the girl as he smiled.
âWhat present?â Xiao LingâEr blinked, an expression of curiosity on her face.
At this moment, the door opened and HuanâEr walked in with a pair of Violet Foxes in her arms. The Violet Foxes were extremely cute, and their eyes sparkled like precious stones. Their eyes were resplendent and they seemed incredibly intelligent.
âThose are Violet Spirit Foxes.â When she saw the Violet Spirit Foxes, a look of happiness appeared on Xiao LingâErâs face. She got off the Violet Wood Bed and hugged a Violet Fox with one arm as she said, âBig bro, are you really giving me this Violet Fox?â
Xiao Yun smiled as he said, âOf course. Would big bro lie to you?â Xiao Yun also felt quite joyful when he saw how happy his little sister looked.
âBig bro, youâre the best.â Xiao LingâEr hugged the Violet Spirit Fox as she turned and stood on the tip of her toes and kissed the youthâs face, a look of bliss on her cute and beautiful face.
âThis girl.â Xiao Yun couldnât help but laugh when he felt the wetness on his face.
As Xiao LingâEr hugged the little fox, she suddenly realised there was another one. As such, she turned and looked at Xiao Yun in curiosity as she said, âBig bro, thereâs still another Violet Fox.â
âThat oneâs for little sister Shi Yan,â Xiao Yun smiled as he replied.
âOh.â Xiao LingâEr seemed a bit dispirited, as well as a bit jealous.
âWhatâs wrong?â When he saw his little sister didnât look too happy, Xiao Yun smiled as he spoke, âLittle sister Shi Yanâs a good person, and has helped us much over the past few years. Big brother thought heâd bring her back a present after going out, but if you like it, you can have both.â
To Xiao Yun, his little sisterâs happiness was of paramount importance.
Xiao LingâEr blinked as she smiled and replied, âLingâErâs happy with just one.â
âLingâErâs such a good girl.â Xiao Yun also smiled as he stroked her hair, marvelling inwardly. Since she was young, this girl had been well behaved and cute, which made anyone want to protect her forever.
âMiss LingâEr, this Violet Fox isnât shy at all; it actually ran onto my head,â HuanâEr said as she giggled.
âSame with my one.â Xiao LingâEr laughed, her eyes looking pure and innocent. The 2 girls continuously laughed as they played with the foxes, looking incredibly happy.
â With that Violet Fox, lil sis wonât be so lonely anymore. â Xiao Yun smiled as he walked towards his bedroom and began to neutralise the Chilling Qi in his body. Even a bit of the remnant of the Chilling Qi was enough to make him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Luckily, Xiao Yun had fused with a Fire Martial Spirit, and with a slight thought, a burst of warmth flowed through his body and dispelled the Chilling Qi.
However, Xiao Yun did not get rid of all of the Chilling Qi, because he found that with enough Chilling Qi, his Martial Spirit would develop. Just like what had happened with Fire Essence Qi, perhaps if he had enough Chilling Qi, he would be able to create some cold-type spirit dew.
Although he didnât know what he could use the dew for, he had seen the jade-green dew recover quite a bit of Essence Qi for Ling Xi. The dew should be extremely precious, and might be even more valuable than medicinal pills.
The remnants of the Chilling Qi were quickly absorbed by Xiao Yunâs Martial Spirit, but the sub-branch did not grow leaves. Evidently, this amount of Chilling Qi was not enough to allow it to create leaves. If he wanted to develop this sub-branch, he would have to continuously absorb Chilling Qi.
Just as Xiao Yun finished completely absorbing the Chilling Qi, he heard Xiao LingâErâs voice call out, âGrandpa.â
âGrandpaâs here? â Xiao Yun was quite surprised.
âLingâEr, is your big brother back?â The Xiao familyâs old patriarchâs voice could be heard from the courtyard.
Xiao LingâEr replied, âMm. Big brotherâs in his room. Do you want LingâEr to go and call him?â
âItâs fine, you keep playing. Grandpa will go himself.â The Xiao familyâs old patriarch looked at his well-behaved and cute granddaughter with a twinge of sadness. After all, he knew about her constitution, but could do nothing about it.
â Luckily we have YunâEr. Otherwise, the girl wouldnât have been able to survive until now .â After sighing, the old patriarch walked towards Xiao Yunâs room.
As the Xiao familyâs old patriarch walked over, Xiao Yun opened the door and went to greet him.
âGrandpa.â Xiao Yun grinned.
Although his grandpa had been in closed-door training for the past 2 years, Xiao Yun knew that his grandpa deeply cared about him. Otherwise, he wouldnât have come out when the Fang family came to look for trouble to protect him.
âYouâve stepped into the Innate realm?â Looking at the youth, the old patriarchâs eyes lit up in excitement. Although he had his guesses, after sending out his senses and confirming it, he felt a strange sense of joy.
âMm.â Xiao Yun nodded, his eyes resolute as he replied, âGrandpa, your grandson will definitely become stronger than that Fang Hao.â
He knew that his grandpa had been quite worried about this. That was why Xiao Yun had entered the depths of the Violet Cloud Mountain by himself.
âBut of course; how could the Fang familyâs little bastard compare to my grandson?â The Xiao familyâs old patriarch smiled as he gave a hearty laugh and said, âHaha, my grandsonâs finally regained his talent from back then. Iâll see who dares to say that our Xiao family has no hope!â
