Moment of Weakness and Evolution of the Asura Bloodline.

When Fang Xue and the bouncing rabbit disappeared from the view of the cultivators, the crowd began to disperse, but the fight would be a topic discussed for many days within the Hu family.

---------------------------------------------------------

Fang Xue finally arrived at a hidden corner and checked if anyone was nearby. When she was sure she was alone, she couldn't hold back the pain anymore and spat out blood.

Despite her internal organs being stronger than any 8th level Body Tempering cultivator, Fang Xue still suffered some internal damage from that fight.

'I was too arrogant,' Fang Xue sighed mentally, aware that she had underestimated her opponent and paid the price for it.

Fang Xue had thought she could easily win against any 8th level Body Tempering cultivator, but reality had hit her in the face.

Fang Xue knew she could have won easily if she had used her Asura lineage and Star Power, but since it was just a sparring match, there was no need to take things so far.

Fang Xue also realized her lack of fighting experience and the need to improve her skills for future battles. She knew that even with her brute strength, she could not defeat a 9th level Body Tempering opponent, and that she needed to learn to use her powers with wisdom and strategy.

''How arrogant of me! Even if I used my Asura lineage and Star Power, my chances of winning against a 9th level Body Tempering cultivator would be at most 50%, and only for a few seconds,'' Fang Xue thought aloud, feeling a little ashamed of herself, remembering the way she had said those arrogant words of challenge.

"Arrogance and self-confidence, only a thin line separates the two. You have to be careful that self-confidence does not turn into arrogance and blind your mind," suddenly, Li Qiang's voice sounded behind Fang Xue.

Fang Xue didn't turn around because she didn't want to face Li Qiang now. She felt a deep sense of shame, especially after remembering the words she had said.

'All this time, I was just a clown,' Fang Xue thought, mocking herself. Before she could continue her thoughts, Li Qiang spoke.

"I don't know what your life was like before, both on Earth and in your past in this world. I only know the Fang Xue of now, determined and full of spirit, ready to endure any pain and challenge to complete her revenge.

"The Fang Xue who doesn't even blink in the face of the possibility of true death, without the right to reincarnation. The Fang Xue who confidently said that she would overcome everything and everyone, even an existence outside this universe.

"But now... I don't see any of that, and there's nothing wrong with it. Many cultivators become arrogant after a small increase in power, and even when they see that they are weaker than expected, instead of accepting that fact and facing reality, they prefer to live in their own little world of arrogance.

"In the past, you couldn't cultivate, but now you have the opportunity to rise to a level never seen before. It's normal to be carried away by feelings and emotions, but you can't lose control of those feelings and emotions.

"Soon, you will be better than many cultivators. You can see your own mistakes, try to seek improvements, and face reality as it is. I don't know how long you lived in your past life, but you couldn't have been older than 30.

"Thirty years! In front of me, you are nothing but a fetus in your mother's womb, and you're already thinking that a small, silly mistake is a reason to be ashamed? I have lived for millions of years and have made more mistakes than I can remember, but I have learned from each small and big mistake to ultimately get to where I am now.

"Although we don't have a destiny, I can't help but think that destiny brought us together. I never doubted your previous words and promises. In fact, I trusted you more than you trusted yourself!

"Now, lift your head and learn from your mistakes! You don't have to be strong all the time. Whenever you feel weak, I'll be by your side. But if you get lost in your weakness, I will kill both of us! I would rather die forever than see you sink without fighting," Li Qiang said those words from the bottom of her heart.

Li Qiang knew that pretty words would sound false and wouldn't help at all. She had to make Fang Xue stand up on her own. And the best way would be to say everything she, Li Qiang, thought in her heart.

After hearing Li Qiang's words, two tears ran down Fang Xue's face.

Only Fang Xue knew how frightened she was in this new world. Despite trusting Li Qiang, Fang Xue didn't want to show any weakness in front of her. This attitude was due to her past traumas.

On Earth, Fang Xue had always been practically alone, having to rely only on herself. When she entered the business world, she knew that if she showed any weakness, she would be devoured to the bone.

During her life in this world, her parents were persecuted for 10 years because of her. Even after all the fighting, they ended up dying, and Fang Xue always felt that everything was her fault, having no right to complain about anything.

Even though she knew she wasn't alone and could count on Li Qiang, her subconscious wouldn't allow her to show any fragility. After all, Li Qiang was an ancient and powerful goddess, and Fang Xue didn't want to lose her by being seen as weak and insecure.

After hearing Li Qiang's words, all past traumas and nightmares were swept away from her heart, leaving her feeling lighter.

'I can finally trust someone,' Fang Xue thought, moved and happy to have someone who would be by her side in every moment, even when she was weak.

When Fang Xue came to this conclusion, a dark crimson light began to shine around her, but she didn't notice it. Only Li Qiang noticed the light.

The Asura lineage was evolving completely!
