It's just that what makes Xiao Shu puzzled now is that he crossed over to the Dou Qi Continent and forcibly opened the golden finger to cultivate Dou Qi.

Will it rewrite the original plot and cause Xiao Yan to become the emperor?

Or... Or even the fall of the middle way?

"No, this is not what I have to think about right now, the most important thing now is to do everything possible to become strong, but I don't have a strong golden finger."

"Can you only cultivate slowly step by step?"

Xiao Shu's eyes moved slightly, as if he had thought of something.

"No, this parchment is definitely not as simple as it seems, it must be that I haven't discovered the mystery on it, or the cultivation is not enough, and I need to achieve some kind of task of the parchment."

"Finally, you can get the reward from the parchment."

Xiao Shu's explanation makes sense, after all, what kind of open life doesn't need a start, obviously, Xiao Shu's open life has just begun.

He is not in a hurry, since he already has the fighting spirit, and he has advanced to the fighter one step ahead of Xiao Yan.

Although the parchment has not helped him in any practical way now, he is much better than before.

Xiao Shu calmed his mind, sat cross-legged, ran his fighting spirit, and entered a meditative state.

At this time.

Inside Xiao Yan's room.

"Yan'er, you're fifteen years old, aren't you?"

Xiao Zhan's face had a few more fine lines on his face, looking at the little son in front of him, with a smile on his face, but thinking of what happened to Xiao Yan in the past few years, he felt very heartbroken in his heart.

It's not that the heartache that the Xiao family has lost a chance to rise, but that they feel sad for Xiao Yan.

"Yes, father."

"One more year, it seems... It's time for the coming-of-age ceremony..."Xiao Zhan said with a wry smile.

"Yan'er knows that there is still one year, if Yan'er does not reach the Qi of the Seventh Rank Dou, even if your father is the patriarch, Yan'er will be assigned to the family estate."

Of course, Xiao Yan knew what this coming-of-age ceremony meant, before the coming-of-age ceremony, the children of the Xiao family who failed to reach the seventh stage of the fighting qi would be assigned to some inconsequential industries of the Xiao family.

At that time, Xiao Yan's path in cultivation could be said to have come to an end.

After all, if the children of the Xiao family did not become a fighter before the age of twenty-five, they would definitely not be recognized by the family!

"Yan'er, in the past few years, there is really not much that my father can give you, but it has also hurt you, if it weren't for those old guys in the clan who are keeping an eye on it, no matter what my father says, he will do his best to restore your talent!"

"But at this point, it's all up to you!."

Looking at the calm Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan sighed apologetically.

"Father, I will work hard, in a year, I will definitely reach the seventh stage of Dou Qi!" Xiao Yan smiled and comforted.

"One year, four paragraphs? If it was before, it was still a little possible, but now... Seems to be joking. ”

Although he comforted his father on his lips, Xiao Yan laughed bitterly at himself in his heart.

Xiao Zhan, who was also very aware of Xiao Yan's details, had to sigh and respond, how could he not know the difficulty of cultivating the Seven Stages of Dou Qi in a year?

patted Xiao Yan's head lightly, and said with a smile: "It's not early, let's rest first, there will be a distinguished guest in the family tomorrow, don't lose your courtesy." ”

"Distinguished guests? Who is it? Xiao Yan asked curiously.

"We'll find out tomorrow." Squeezed his eyes at Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan laughed and left, leaving Xiao Yan helpless.

"Don't worry, father, I'll do my best!" Stroking the quaint ring on his finger, Xiao Yan raised his head and muttered.

Xiao Yan's eyes moved slightly, as if he suddenly thought of something, and shouted, "Father, Yan'er still has something to tell his father." ”

"What's the matter?" Xiao Zhan, who had just walked to the door, stopped, turned around and looked at Xiao Yan with some doubts on his face.

"Today, the third brother also went to the Dou Qi test." Xiao Yan said quickly.

Speaking of Xiao Shu, Xiao Zhan's eyebrows and eyes instantly showed a little regret, Xiao Shu... Compared with Xiao Yan, it was even more painful for him.

After all, no matter how you say it, Xiao Yan can also cultivate the fighting spirit, and Xiao Shu is a person who can't feel the fighting spirit of the face and the world!

Although he is not his own child, for Xiao Shu, Xiao Zhan treats him as his own, and even loves Xiao Yan above him.

"How did it turn out?" Although he knew that there would be no miracle in the result, Xiao Zhan still followed Xiao Yan's words and asked.

"Third brother, he... Reached the fighter..."Xiao Yan said with a wry smile, but his eyes were staring at Xiao Zhan's reaction, to see if he had known it a long time ago and was being concealed by himself.

"Oh, it's not too early, let's rest." When Xiao Zhan heard this, his expression did not wave, and he replied calmly.

After that, he turned around and walked out, leaving Xiao Yan with a back.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan's eyes were slightly small, "Father, did you already know..."

"It seems... I'll have to do everything I can to get tougher! ”

At the moment when Xiao Yan spoke, the black ancient ring in his finger suddenly lit up with an extremely faint and strange light, and the light disappeared in the blink of an eye, without anyone noticing...

Following.

On the bed, Xiao Shu sat with his eyes closed, his hands stamped on his chest, which seemed out of place with the world, and could even be said to be weird.

The chest rises and falls slightly, and between exhaling and inhaling, it forms a perfect circulation, and between the breath circulation, there is a faint red air flow down the mouth and nose, burrowing into the body, warming the bones and flesh.

When the young man closed his eyes and cultivated, the parchment in his arms suddenly flickered a few times, and a line of small words slowly emerged:

"Cultivate to a five-star fighter and defeat Nalan Yanran!"

Xiao Shu seemed to feel the changes that the parchment had brought to him, and immediately woke up from his meditative state.

"How long has it been? It's only been a few days to get this parchment, and it just got me to the five-star fighter? I didn't do anything. ”

In the face of the rapid improvement in cultivation, Xiao Shu did not feel very happy, and even felt a little weird.

Taking out the parchment paper from his arms, looking at the small words on it, Xiao Shu's eyes froze.

Xiao Shu noticed the order of the font in this line, which literally said that it was first cultivated as a breakthrough, and then defeated Nalan Yanran, so it was a bit confusing.

"Is this mainly to let me defeat Nalan Yanran, so I can cultivate to improve, or is it to make me strong and give me a reward for cultivating for a breakthrough?"

There is one more problem.

"If I don't defeat Nalan Yanran, will the five-star fighter cultivation be taken back?"

Xiao Shu stared at the parchment paper in his hand, the font on it was still there, and it had not disappeared, which was also a strange place, it had been a quarter of an hour since the word appeared.

According to the pattern that appeared before, it is indeed a bit abnormal.

"This should be equivalent to a task or something, and the font will disappear only if the task is completed, or if the task fails."

Xiao Shu guessed.

What is the specific function, we have to wait for Xiao Shu to explore step by step, but no matter what, Xiao Shu's days are much more interesting than before......

At this moment, a noise broke out outside the door.
