Chapter 51 Harvest and a Lion's Big Mouth

"Whoosh!"

Chu Xiao was unaware of the conversation between Yun Yun and Ya Fei.

On his way back to the Xiao Family, using a movement Fighting Skill, he was opening the boxes.

Ya Fei was an ordinary woman, but he was still curious about what benefits she could bring him.

It wouldn't be a Trash Cultivation Talent, would it?

"My goodness, there's actually this thing! It's exactly what I need right now!"

"It's a perfect match for me, who writes a diary in a notebook!"

[You have synchronized and obtained a Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart (Weakened Version) from Ya Fei.]

[Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart (Weakened Version)]:

The Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart can communicate with all things in the world and allows one's eyes to break through all illusions. The weakened version can enhance intuition for discerning people and objects, easily seeing through the essence of some things. It increases Comprehension Ability in Cultivation but greatly weakens Cultivation Talent. When thinking intently, one's mind will be exceptionally agile!

"This is simply Ya Fei."

Chu Xiao hadn't expected Ya Fei to also possess a special talent.

He had thought that Ya Fei's 'Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart' was just a way to describe her intelligence.

However, it was true that aside from her poor Cultivation, Ya Fei had a special knack for discerning people and objects. She could identify valuable items with a glance, and often easily saw through the essence of things. Her mind was so good it was almost cheating, but its expressive power was limited in a Xuanhuan world where martial prowess was paramount.

Just imagine, Little Fairy Doctor has the Cursed Poison Body, Qing Lin has the Bi Snake Three Flower Pupils, Medusa progresses from a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python to Nine-Colored, Zi Yan is an Ancient Void Dragon, Cao Ying was born with a powerful Soul and became an Eighth-Grade Alchemist before the age of twenty-five, Xun Er has a Divine Grade Dou Di Bloodline, and Han Yue and Han Xue are sisters.

If Ya Fei didn't have something special, she would be too out of place.

"With this Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart, my thinking ability will become stronger, and when creating stories, I'll have a better grasp of details and logic, so I won't fear being seen through one day."

"As for the drawback of reduced Life Qi affecting Cultivation speed, I have the Lei Gang Emperor Flame, so I don't need to worry at all."

"It would be best if I could find a Body Refining Cultivation Technique to fundamentally solve this problem."

"Then Ya Fei could also become a Genius with normal Cultivation Talent and extraordinary Comprehension Ability."

Chu Xiao knew the Cultivation system of the Major Thousand Worlds. A Dou Di was merely a castrated version of a Supreme, comparable to a Supreme.

This point was actually easy to understand. The lower planes had limited resources, and the Heavenly Laws suppression was not as strong as in the Major Thousand Worlds.

To give an inappropriate example, in the Gama Empire, a Dou Huang expert was already at the Peak, and there wasn't even a Dou Zong; even looking at the entire western Northwest Continent, there were only a few Dou Zongs, and seemingly no Dou Zuns.

In the central part of the Northwest Continent, forces like the Sky Serpent Mansion had Dou Zun experts; but in the Central Plains, there were many Dou Zuns openly, and even Half-Saint experts.

The One Hall and One Tower even had Dou Saint experts on the surface, not to mention the eight ancient Emperor Clans hidden in the background.

Even a small Dou Qi Continent had such a hierarchy. So, looking at the entire Major Thousand Worlds, the Dou Qi Continent, even at its Peak, was only comparable to a medium-sized continent. How many resources could it have?

In the Gama Empire, an eighteen-year-old Dou Master was a Genius, but in the Central Plains, a Dou King was just the passing line, and the first echelon were all Dou Huangs or even Dou Zongs.

If the true Geniuses of the Dou Qi Continent went to Cultivate in the Major Thousand Worlds, they might not be weak. All four aspects—wealth, companion, Law, and land—would have a huge impact.

And in the Major Thousand Worlds, to become a Supreme required undergoing the Supreme's three minor tribulations: Spirit Power Tribulation, Physical Body Tribulation, and Divine Soul Tribulation.

Soul Power, Spirit Power Cultivation, and Physical Body Cultivation progressed in parallel.

Since he knew this, he naturally focused on foundational Cultivation from the very beginning.

With these thoughts, Chu Xiao quickly returned to the Xiao Family and went directly to Xiao Zhan and Fang Yi's private courtyard.

The guards were all standing outside the door. Upon seeing Chu Xiao, their eyes glowed with fervor, and they all called out "Young Master Chu Xiao," without any obstruction.

He arrived outside the study and heard Fang Yi lecturing Xiao Zhan inside.

"Oh, you, Xiao Zhan, now you even dare to make up stories to trick me."

"To avoid sleeping in the study earlier, you can even say such outrageous things."

"And you told me to prepare delicious food for Xiao Er. I think you look like delicious food."

Chu Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly and, in a blink, arrived at the courtyard entrance, placing a hand on Xiao Yan's shoulder as he watched the commotion.

"Who!?"

Xiao Yan was startled and instinctively turned around.

Upon seeing that it was Chu Xiao, he let out a sigh of relief, thinking that no wonder his teacher hadn't reminded him.

What he didn't know was that Yao Lao, sensing Chu Xiao's current strength Realm and the Profound Rank Fighting Skill he had displayed, was questioning life.

Even he, the former number one Alchemist on the continent, couldn't raise a one-star Dou Master to a one-star Great Dou Shi in just a few days.

What was going on!?

Could it be that this kid had previously Cultivated some secret method to hide his strength, and only now revealed it?

"Cousin!" Xiao Yan plastered a smile on his face and whispered, "My dad is using you as an excuse to try and get Mom's forgiveness earlier. He's going to suffer now, haha."

Chu Xiao: "..."

You really are 'laughing' yourself strong.

"Dad actually said you've reached Great Dou Shi and told Mom to cook some good dishes to celebrate," Xiao Yan shook his head. "Such an outrageous reason, that he could even think of it and use it to fool Mom, I truly admire him."

Chu Xiao's lips curved slightly, and he retorted, "Is there a possibility that Uncle wasn't fooling Auntie?"

"Huh?"

Xiao Yan's expression froze.

"Your cousin is indeed a one-star Great Dou Shi. It's just unknown whether he Cultivated from a one-star Dou Master or used a special secret method to hide his Cultivation before," Yao Lao's voice timely sounded in Xiao Yan's ear, and the latter's eyes immediately widened.

"Teacher, is there such a secret method that can even hide from your perception?" Xiao Yan felt very surprised.

"If I were to diligently probe, with your cousin's current Cultivation and Soul Power, unless he Cultivates a Heaven Rank secret method, he wouldn't be able to hide it," Yao Lao explained calmly. "But his Soul Power is outstanding, and his little girlfriend is even more extraordinary. If I were to probe, he would discover me."

"Before, he only revealed a Dou Qi veil and the aura of a one-star Dou Master, so I didn't think much of it."

"Now that he isn't hiding his aura and is using a Profound Rank movement technique, he can't hide from my perception."

Xiao Yan: "..."

A one-star Dou Master, and a very valuable Profound Rank movement Fighting Skill.

His cousin was impossibly strong.

"What a pity, your cousin has wind-lightning attributes, not fire-wood attributes," Yao Lao sighed.

Xiao Yan: ?

He's complaining about me, he definitely is!

"Cousin, then quickly go save my dad," Xiao Yan said with fiery eyes.

"Do I need you to tell me?" Chu Xiao said with a smile as he walked into the study, calling out, "Auntie, how could Uncle dare to use such an obviously deceitful lie to trick you?"

Fang Yi, who was currently upset, froze, then said in disbelief, "Xiao Er, you really…?"

"I fortunately encountered a small fortuitous encounter, plus my Comprehension Ability is good," Chu Xiao slightly leaked a trace of his aura.

With Fang Yi's Dou Ling strength, she could naturally confirm Chu Xiao's true Cultivation.

"Good, good, good!" Fang Yi was overjoyed. "It is time to celebrate, to celebrate properly! I'll go prepare the dishes."

Xiao Zhan looked wronged. "Madam, you've wronged your husband."

"Wronged is wronged. It's your own fault for not explaining clearly," Fang Yi snorted lightly. "All your previous mistakes are forgiven. You don't have to sleep in the study anymore."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan also knew when to stop, speaking all sorts of soft words.

Fang Yi ignored him and excitedly walked out of the study and ran to the kitchen.

Only Xiao Zhan, Chu Xiao, and Xiao Yan remained in the room.

"Xiao Er, it's all thanks to you," Xiao Zhan said with a face full of relief.

Chu Xiao's eyes flashed, and he spoke, "Then, Uncle, why don't you give me the treasured jade passed down by the Clan Chief?"

Xiao Zhan: ???
