Chapter 540 - 341: Because He Is Still Alive - Part 2
Knowing that General Frozen was interested in this young man, Wan Qiao suddenly found herself intrigued. Previously, this youth was merely Lan Feng’s vessel, but now, she began to take notice of this man.
"Stay here for a while," she said firmly. It was evident that arguments were unwelcome. "I’ll help you train. Your physical condition is certainly weak. Any one of my guards—even those ranked lower than you—could send you sprawling in actual combat. That’s something we need to address. Secondly, you need to accelerate your cultivation. As an expert, roses don’t bloom on laziness; you must work hard!"
Hearing her words, Yan Xiaobao was utterly baffled by her sudden change of attitude. However, upon hearing her offer to assist him in training, he found it too good to refuse.
"I came here for the first time hoping for your help to leave the Divine Domain," Yan Xiaobao began, but before she could deny him, he quickly added, "Your offer is far better than what I originally wanted. But my friends are worried about whether I’m still alive. Help me send a letter to them, and I’ll gladly stay here to train under your guidance."
"Humph," the woman snorted at him, but after pondering for a moment, she nodded. If she truly wished to teach him, it would be best not to focus on nor worry about him returning to his friends in another nation.
"Write them a letter tonight. Tomorrow, I’ll send it out. You better prepare yourself to start training with me tomorrow. If you ask Lan Feng, I believe he’ll tell you exactly what it’s like." A cruel smile appeared on her face, sending a shiver down Yan Xiaobao’s spine. It was clear that this training would be hellish, but despite that, Yan Xiaobao felt thrilled. He yearned to become stronger, something achievable only through rigorous training.
As he thought he would have some respite, Wan Qiao suddenly stood up. Leaning closer to the young man, her brows furrowed.
"Boy, why do you smell like a magical beast?" Her voice was dangerously low and sharp enough to feel like it could pierce anything. "This is definitely not Lan Feng’s scent. Boy, are you trying to deceive me? Are you truly not a magical beast in disguise?"
Hearing her accusations, Yan Xiaobao froze for a moment. Lan Feng had warned him not to deceive Wan Qiao; instead, he should value his life above his secrets.
"I don’t know how to explain it," Yan Xiaobao sighed deeply, "No matter how I explain it, it’ll sound absurd."
