What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility! (BTTH)

Chapter 103: The Plan in Progress

Yun Zhi stared blankly at the cliff split open by Xiao Yans strike, her thoughts frozen.

Splitting open a cliff was not something particularly unbelievable for Yun Zhi, as she could easily achieve it with her strength before being sealed.

However, Xiao Yan was just a Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level)! Yun Zhi had never heard of a Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) being capable of such a feat!

A monster Hes an absolute monster!

Previously, Yun Zhi had been puzzled by why Nalan Yanran was training so relentlessly during this time and why she wouldnt listen to her advice.

Nalan Yanran was her direct disciple, and Yun Zhi didnt want to see her push herself to the point of exhaustion.

But Nalan Yanrans personality was just like her teachers once she decided on something, she would never turn back. Helpless, Yun Zhi had no choice but to seek out the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King to obtain the Purple Spirit Crystal and have Alchemist Gu He concoct a pill that would help improve Nalan Yanrans physique.

Since she couldnt persuade Nalan Yanran to stop, the least she could do was to help her withstand the inhuman training.

And at this moment, witnessing the strike Xiao Yan had just unleashed, Yun Zhi finally understood why Nalan Yanran had been training so relentlessly and why she wouldnt listen to her teachers advice.

She must have witnessed it when she visited the Xiao Clan saw Xiao Yans strength far surpassing opponents of the same level.

Nalan Yanran knew very well that if she continued with her previous level of training, she would undoubtedly lose when the three-year agreement came.

This was something Nalan Yanran was unwilling to accept.

She genuinely liked Xiao Yan and understood how exceptional he was, with many people admiring him around him.

Although the three-year agreement was just a momentary emotional promise made by Nalan Yanran, she deeply understood that it might be her only chance in this lifetime to fulfill her wish.

She would never give up! She would do everything in her power to fight for it!

Nalan Yanran firmly believed that if she didnt make the utmost effort due to temporary exhaustion, she would regret it in the future! Regret not pushing herself to train harder!

Nalan Yanran would never allow herself to regret!

Even if she lost to Xiao Yan in the three-year agreement, she wanted to tell herself with a clear conscience that she had done everything she could!

Yun Zhi stood quietly at the entrance of the cave, watching Xiao Yan continue his cultivation.

She watched him silently.

Although he didnt use that earth-shattering strike again, the ongoing training made Yun Zhi tremble with fear.

She had thought Nalan Yanrans training was already daring enough.

But she had never expected that Xiao Yans training had surpassed daring and reached a point of recklessness!

He seemed tireless, continuously colliding with the hard cliffs using his physical body.

Even though his body was covered in wounds and lacerations, Xiao Yan showed no signs of slowing down.

The ferocious expression on Xiao Yans tightly clenched teeth made Yun Zhi realize that he wasnt devoid of pain sensation he was enduring, restraining himself, and forcing himself to continue.

Suddenly, Yun Zhi unconsciously thought that the strike Xiao Yan had used to split the cliff and the waterfall earlier was not so unacceptable if he had been training like this all along.

Regardless of the person Heaven favors, most people must pay an equivalent effort to obtain what they desire.

In Xiao Yans heart, he adhered to this principle.

He understood that to practice his righteousness in this world, strength was indispensable.

And his current strength was far from enough!

Cultivate!

Cultivate!

Cultivate!

Cultivate until he reached a point where his strength would not restrict him while promoting righteousness!

Xiao Yan was so focused on his training that he didnt notice Yun Zhi standing at the entrance of the cave, gazing at him.

Unknowingly, the afternoon quietly passed, and as dusk faded, night fell. Xiao Yan finally stopped his training.

Feeling the intense pain coming from all over his body, Xiao Yans expression contorted, and his trembling legs finally gave out. He sat down on the ground and took out some healing medicine from his storage ring, swallowing it to alleviate the pain.

This scene left Yao Chen, inside the ring, feeling helpless.

Back when they were at the Xiao Clan, she already thought that Xiao Yan was pushing himself to the limit.

However, after they entered the Magic Beast Mountain Range and obtained the healing medicine, Xiao Yan once again surpassed Yao Chens understanding of pushing oneself.

It was just unbelievable.

To put it bluntly, it seemed like Xiao Yan would do anything that didnt involve dying. He didnt seem to care about his own body.

Before entering the mountain range, Yao Chen had designed a series of training routines, which she specifically intensified several times based on Xiao Yans physique. She had thought that Xiao Yan keeping up with those routines was already commendable.

However, now she deeply felt that compared to Xiao Yans efforts, her tailored training was nothing more than childs play.

Yao Chen had always been proud of the effort she put into her own training during her time in the Magic Beast Mountain Range. She believed that her efforts might not have ranked first in the world, but they were at least among the top.

But now, Yao Chen deeply felt that her previous efforts were nothing compared to Xiao Yans.

As she marveled at this, Xiao Yan sat on the rock for a while. Although he still felt intense pain, it was much better than before. He stood up with some difficulty, and when he turned around, he saw Yun Zhi beside the river, roasting the pre-cut meat over the fire. The beautiful face looked even more enchanting under the flickering firelight.

This sight left Xiao Yan stunned.

Umm!

Just as he was about to get lost in his thoughts, Xiao Yan shook his head forcefully, clearing his mind and lowly chuckled at himself.

He had trained too intensely, and his mind was a bit fuzzy

Xiao Yan leaped from the rock in the river to the riverbank and came to Yun Zhis side, who had just placed the meat on the fire. He said softly, Let me do the roasting, sister Yun Shi.

Are you done with your training?

Hearing Xiao Yans voice, Yun Zhi turned to look at him, gazing at Xiao Yans body covered in bloodstains and injuries. After a long silence, she softly said, You should rest first. Just leave it to me since you just finished such training.

Alright.

Recalling that Yun Zhi had been roasting meat for a week, Xiao Yan was initially taken aback, but then he lightly scratched his head and replied.

Well At least sister Yun Shi succeeded once on the last day. It should be fine, right?

Then, sister Yun Shi, Ill go rest in the cave.

Okay, Ill bring it in after I finish roasting.

Yun Zhi nodded gently, and Xiao Yan turned and headed towards the cave.

At this moment, neither of them noticed a wisp of red powder quietly drifting out of Xiao Yans storage ring. Under the cover of the night, it adhered to the uncooked meat, making it impossible to see clearly in the light of the fire.

Yun Zhi was completely unaware of this and focused her attention on roasting the meat, doing her best to ensure it wasnt overcooked.
