Chapter Fifty-Seven: A Late Night Visit

Shangguan Xinlan was still busy repairing Gu Tianming's outfit, and Jian Wendao had to go home alone.

The originally spacious courtyard was densely filled with various wooden stakes of different lengths and heights, and the figure of Jian Wendao moved rapidly between the wooden stakes, and his steps were no longer as random as before but moved according to a certain law, which was the martial art he had just obtained today - Ethereal Step.

Since it is a martial art, there must be traces to follow, and it is best not to use the martial arts that you have just started to practice in actual combat, and the unfamiliar martial arts will only allow the enemy to quickly see through its flaws and defeat you directly.

The ethereal step given by Jin Bing at the same time is really a very easy to use martial art, and the specific operation method is very similar to the ability to step on the void, which can play a complementary role, and he is a little skeptical that Jin Bing specially found it for him after watching his battle. The attack of the ethereal step is mainly to use a large amount of wind aura gathered under the feet when dodging to perform a strong kicking technique, so the key is to practice this dodge body technique well!

A wooden stake was knocked to the ground, and the sword stopped. He picked up the stake again and continued his cultivation. Using martial arts to move quickly without knocking down any of the stakes, and after successfully holding them for ten minutes, he will re-shuffle the stakes into another shape before continuing to cultivate, which is his cultivation method

Just as Jian Wendao began to move again, the gate of the small courtyard was suddenly opened, and several black "Ding" characters condensed by spiritual energy shot directly at Jian Wendao, but instead of directly aiming at his people, they landed in a few places where he might have fallen, blocking his way.

Jian Wendao was startled at first, and then quickly calmed down, although these big character attacks were fast, as long as he used his ethereal steps with all his might, there was still a chance to dodge them. The other party's attack was not to attack him, but to increase the difficulty of his cultivation and help him squeeze out his full strength.

"Drink!!" the sword shouted loudly when he heard this, and his speed skyrocketed by three points, grazing the edge of the big word and barely passing.

Before he could catch his breath, a few big black characters came to him, and it seemed that the other party didn't intend to give him a chance to breathe at all!

"It's really strict. Jian Wendao complained slightly, and once again used his body to dodge.

Under the bombardment of the black characters, Jian Wendao was so reluctant to dodge every time, and even hit a few times, although the black words did not hurt, but every time he was hit, he felt that his body was heavier, if he was hit continuously, I am afraid that he would not be able to run if he wanted to.

All the wooden stakes on the ground were hit, and when the entire body of Jian Wendao was dyed black with black letters, he lay helplessly on the ground, even if he wanted to move his fingers, he felt as if there were a hundred elephants pressed on his fingers, and he couldn't even shake it.

"Well, you're a little bit better than last time. A childish child's voice came out of the darkness, and a little Lori wearing a black cloak walked into the courtyard.

"Compared to Little Miss, I'm naturally far behind. Jian Wendao said with a wry smile, the way this hand used the aura to condense big characters to attack was so special, he naturally couldn't be mistaken, and he hadn't seen it for a few days, An Xiaoxiao's cultivation had actually improved by two levels! You must know that every step after the twenty-fold martial arts requires a hundredfold effort, and many people take longer to ascend from the twenty-fold to the twenty-first level than it takes him to ascend from the tenth to the twenty-first level of the martial arts.

"I won't talk nonsense, you will count me in this mission!" An Xiaoxiao's tone was tough, not like she was here to ask for his opinion, but she had the feeling that she would come to inform him after making a decision.

"Of course I'm glad that the little lady is willing to help, but it's just ...... Why are you suddenly so interested in our mission?" Jian Wendao was quite curious, what was the reason for her late night visit in such a hurry.

"You don't have to worry about that. I naturally have some personal reasons, anyway, you just need to know that I will help you complete this mission!" An Xiaoxiao waved his hand, and when he heard the sword, the large number of overlapping black characters on his body turned into aura and dissipated, allowing him to return to normal.

Jian Wendao then breathed a sigh of relief and stood up again, judging from the last meeting, An Xiaoxiao not only did not develop her body and even her heart and other aspects were similar to ordinary children, the only problem was that her martial arts cultivation was too strong, so that a six or seven-year-old child could not get a powerful power that most adults could not get, which was not a good thing in all aspects.

"But doesn't Miss Xiao still have to manage the big library? We are estimated to have to leave for seventeen or eighteen days on this mission, is there really no problem?" The more Jian Wendao thought about it, the more he felt that he couldn't just leave with An Xiaoxiao.

"Oh, why are you so annoying? Always asking questions! Isn't it bad to have a master like me join in?" An Xiaoxiao asked angrily.

Jian Wendao was a little speechless, and he just asked two questions. You must know that with An Xiaoxiao's identity and strength, he suddenly said that he wanted to join their mission, no matter how he said it, it made people feel that there was something else hidden, and he naturally had to understand it clearly.

"I'm sorry, but I have to be clear. Jian Wendao said in a tough tone. He's already decided! Even if it will provoke Mao Anxiao, he has to figure out her purpose.

"You ......"

Sure enough, Jian Wendao's tough attitude made An Xiaoxiao's anger soar rapidly. The large brush in her hand re-lit up, as if she was about to strike at any moment. Jian Wendao took a deep breath and watched An Xiaoxiao's every move with all his attention, ready to do it again.

"You ......" An Xiaoxiao was angry and aggrieved, "I, I've helped you cultivate for so long!

"Eh?" Jian couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, what kind of logic is this, he didn't ask her to help cultivate!

"I'm not going to refuse you!" Jian Wendao sighed, "But with your identity, how can I casually let you join?

"How could she!" shouted Ann. I don't know what kind of contradiction there is between the two sisters, but I'm so excited when I mention each other's names.

"Little Miss!" Jian Wendao persuaded earnestly, "After all, you are sisters, and she will never feel good if something happens to you!"

"What do you know?" An Xiaoxiao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes aggrievedly.

She's really a crybaby, Jian Wendao thought.

"Did you let me join if I told you why?" asked Ann Xiaoxiao weakly. The tough attitude is just a shell for her to protect herself, and once she is punctured through this shell, she can find that there is a fragile and timid little girl hidden inside.

"Then it depends on your reasoning. Jian Wendao didn't directly agree to her.
