Chu Xiaoxi immediately looked proud.

“Brother, am I powerful?”

“Impressive… very impressive…”

Chu Nan could not help but click his tongue.

One had to know that if one seriously calculated, Chu Xiaoxi had only officially started cultivating martial techniques before he arrived at Star Cloud Academy last year. Up until now, it had only been less than half a year.

In less than half a year, she had actually crossed the Novice Realm and the first to fifth-stage Overlord Body Realm in a row and directly became an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist.

Although the reason why she grew so quickly was mainly that Chu Nan had helped her open all the meridians in her body and built an Internal Breath cultivation method that was completely suitable for her to build an extremely strong foundation, her talent was still extremely important.

When he recalled that he had cultivated to the martial technique since he was young and had used 13 years to barely cultivate to the initial-stage Overlord Body Realm, if not for the fact that he had accidentally obtained a powerful data ability and a series of fortuitous encounters, he might not even have the hope of breaking through to the Internal Breath Realm in his life, Chu Nan immediately sighed.

In the path of martial arts, talent was indeed the same as an inheritance. It was the two most important conditions for success.

“Chu Nan, I’m afraid you don’t know.” At this moment, Uncle Mu Luo interrupted, “Apart from eating and sleeping every day, Xiaoxi has been cultivating non-stop. Such hard work is much stronger than when I cultivated martial techniques back then.”

“Is that so?” Chu Nan looked at Chu Xiaoxi.

Chu Xiaoxi nodded lightly as if she was a little embarrassed and turned her head away.

“I… I want to become a Heaven Control Martial Artist as soon as possible…”

Chu Nan sighed softly and reached out to touch Chu Xiaoxi’s head, his heart filled with warmth.

There was no need to ask. The reason why Chu Xiaoxi cultivated so desperately and even wanted to become a powerful Heaven Control Martial Artist only had one goal, and that was to avenge him.

Fortunately, he had survived safely now. Otherwise, with Chu Xiaoxi’s personality, her life might be ruined by this obsession.

After all, no matter how talented Chu Xiaoxi was, it was not easy to become a Heaven Control expert.

“Alright, Xiaoxi, I’m back now. You don’t have to work so hard in the future. You have your own life. You don’t have to do this in the future.”

“No.” Unexpectedly, Chu Xiaoxi shook her head and looked at Chu Nan with shining eyes, “Brother, I didn’t think so in the past, but after cultivating recently, I discovered that cultivating martial techniques is actually quite fun. Look…”

Chu Xiaoxi rolled up the sleeve of her left arm, revealing a white arm that she handed to Chu Nan.

“Did you notice that my arm is even whiter than before?”

Chu Nan glanced at it and shook his head, “I can’t tell. Your arm was quite white in the past.”

“Tsk, touch it.” Chu Xiaoxi grabbed Chu Nan’s hand and rubbed it on her arm a few times, “Do you think it’s very smooth? Very delicate?”

Chu Nan touched it a few times and nodded. “Yes, it feels much stronger than when I grabbed you in the past. What? What do you mean by letting me see your arm?”

“What I mean is… ever since I cultivated martial techniques, especially after my Internal Breath gradually became stronger, I discovered that my body was getting better and better. Even my skin was getting better and better. It became clean, healthy, and smooth. It was simply much better than using the best skincare products. Don’t you think it’s magical?”

Chu Nan laughed, “What’s so magical about that? Have you forgotten? I told you before that the process of cultivating martial techniques is actually a process of continuously tempering the body. The stronger the Internal Breath, the deeper the tempering of the body. Your body will naturally become better and better. If you don’t believe me, watch me…”

Chu Nan also rolled up his sleeves and handed an arm to Chu Xiaoxi.

“Touch it.”

Chu Xiaoxi reached out and touched it a few times before immediately exclaiming.

“Wow, really! Brother, I didn’t pay attention to it in the past. Actually, your arm is also very smooth and delicate. It simply feels better than mine.”

After saying that, he carefully stared at Chu Nan’s face for a while and revealed a confused expression.

“Brother… why do I realize that even your appearance has changed a little? Moreover, didn’t you have a scar on your face in the past? Why is it gone now? In addition, those freckles and moles on your face are gone. Oh my god! Your skin is actually so good. It makes me so jealous! Tell me, are you someone else pretending to be my brother?”

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Chu Nan angrily slapped away Chu Xiaoxi’s hand that was touching his face, “I even know that there are three triangular moles on your right butt. You’re telling me that I’m an impostor?”

Chu Xiaoxi immediately blushed and glanced at Uncle Mu Luo. She discovered that he was trying his best to hold back his smile and her face became even redder. She punched Chu Nan’s chest.

“Brother, you’re talking nonsense!”

Chu Nan laughed.

After playing with Chu Xiaoxi for a while, she finally returned to her usual liveliness.

“Alright, continue. You just said that cultivating martial techniques made your body feel better and your skin better. What happened next?”

“My mind feels much better.” Chu Xiaoxi waved her arms happily and displayed her vitality to Chu Nan, “Moreover, I really feel that cultivating martial techniques is very interesting. Every day, I feel my Internal Breath circulating in my meridians. I feel that it’s very fun.”

“So?”

“Therefore, I’ve decided that I have to focus on martial arts in the future!” Chu Xiaoxi said firmly.

Chu Nan was slightly stunned, but when he saw the firm expression on Chu Xiaoxi’s face and her unwavering gaze, he was relieved. He smiled and asked, “Tell me the true reason.”

Chu Xiaoxi looked straight at Chu Nan and suddenly, two rows of burning eyes surged out.

“Brother, do you know? When I saw you being forced into the stargate by that damned guy, I wanted to kill him immediately, but I knew that I could not do it. During this period of time, I have always hated my powerlessness. Every time, I think about how good it would be if I became very strong. As long as you encountered any danger, I could rush over to save you immediately. At the very least… at the very least, if anything happened to you, I could personally take revenge for you. Therefore, I must cultivate my martial technique well and become very strong, even becoming the strongest Star-Grade Martial Artist. Only then can I protect you and Mom and Dad. Don’t you think so?”

Chu Nan sighed and reached out to hug Chu Xiaoxi again, letting her twitch and choke in his chest.

After a moment of silence, he touched Chu Xiaoxi’s head and said softly, “If you’re really interested in martial arts, then practice it. However, you have to remember that the path of martial arts is definitely not as easy as you think. If you’ve really made up your mind, I’ll ask you even more strictly next. If you can’t do it, don’t cry.”

Chu Xiaoxi twitched twice and left Chu Nan’s arms. She looked at him firmly and nodded.

“I definitely will! Brother, I guarantee you that this is the last time I’ll cry in my life. No matter how strict you treat me in the future, I’ll endure it.”

“Very good.” Chu Nan smiled, “Then from tomorrow onwards, I’ll stay at home for at least three months. In these three months, I’ll specially train you and myself. In three months, regardless of whether it’s you or me, we’ll shock some people.”
