After hearing Xiaoyao's words, the innkeeper felt relieved and wasn't too surprised, because among the people coming and going, there were quite a few such martial artists. What he found sowhat strange was that these two people didn't seem like martial artists at all—they had no martial artist aura about them.
Perhaps this was because his vision was limited and he couldn't tell.
However, martial artists generally had a kind of arrogance, especially the younger generation, yet these two young people seed to have no arrogance at all. They were even so humble and amiable, which was very rare. Moreover, ordinary martial artists wouldn't lower themselves to stay in a storage room.
In the end, the innkeeper didn't pay much attention to this, because he still had to attend to other guests. This was a busy ti.
Xiaoyao tidied up a bit and arranged things slightly to put Guxing in a relatively comfortable and safe environnt, then casually sat down outside where Guxing was. The two ditated and rested for a while—it was still quite so ti before dinner.
After Guxing entered her state, if anyone had been there, they would definitely have been surprised or even shocked, because Guxing's body was faintly emitting so kind of light, and this light gave people the feeling that she was about to transcend the mortal realm and enter sainthood.
If one knew what this light was, their expression would definitely be one of shock, even on this continent.
This light was the phenonon of transcending mortality to enter sainthood—it appeared when advancing from Emperor Level to Saint Level. After reaching Saint Level, this light would disappear, which was also a very strange phenonon.
...
...
Of course, this was only a phenonon. Having this didn't necessarily an one would advance to Saint Level. Many people cultivated this kind of light but spent all their remaining years unable to take another step forward.
Also, this light didn't appear constantly—it would occasionally manifest, making it hard to say what the situation really was. However, one thing was certain: if this light appeared, it ant there was a chance to break through the Emperor Level barrier and reach Saint Level.
At the sa ti, this at least indicated one thing: the person emitting this light should have Emperor Level peak strength!
Indeed, Guxing had Emperor Level peak strength, though she had only just entered it...
The appearance of this light had no direct relationship with how long one had been at Emperor Level peak. So people had it very early, so very late. However, having it just after entering like Guxing was very rare—almost unique.
The reason Guxing advanced to Emperor Level peak so quickly, besides her own stimulation, was largely because the cultivation environnt had improved. It could be said that after Xiaoyao and the others set foot on this land, their cultivation speed would increase by more than double.
Not only was Guxing's cultivation accelerating—the Young Miss and Nangong Suxin were the sa, much faster than before. Although their speed wasn't as fast as Guxing's, it wouldn't be inferior to any genius here, including monster-level ones.
However, Xiaoyao discovered a very strange phenonon: everyone was accelerating, but he alone was slowing down—his progress was becoming slower and slower.
Xiaoyao hadn't told anyone about this situation. Even Guxing didn't know, because he didn't want Guxing to worry. He believed this problem would be figured out sooner or later, and then it could be solved.
If it couldn't be figured out, no one could solve it anyway.
Could it be because of Chi Chi?
When would that little thing finish evolving? Perhaps it was at a critical mont and needed large amounts of energy. If that were the case, it would an that even coming here, the connection between bonded spirit beasts still existed.
If that were the case, it would be even better—Chi Chi could find him, so he wouldn't have to worry about Chi Chi not being able to find him. After all, coming here this ti was an accident with no preparation at all.
To be honest, Xiaoyao was still sowhat worried about Chi Chi's situation, but he could only worry. He didn't even know how to return now, and if sothing happened to a bonded spirit beast, he should be able to sense it. At least for now, there seed to be no problems.
Soon, the light on Guxing's body disappeared and returned to the normal state of energy circulation and cultivation.
"Ti to eat!"
At dinner ti, Xiaoyao finished his practice and said a sentence. Guxing had originally been in that cultivation state, but imdiately ended it after Xiaoyao's words, opening her eyes to look at him.
If anyone had witnessed this situation, they would definitely have found it amazing. It wasn't that they couldn't imdiately end cultivation, but that was generally only in a relatively casual state. Just now, Guxing had been emitting that kind of light, which definitely couldn't appear in a casual state—it must be a phenonon of focused cultivation.
Suddenly stopping from focused cultivation was a transition that could easily lead to qi deviation—this was the reason for secluded cultivation, to avoid being disturbed!
How did she do it?
This question was sothing many people would want to know, but it would lead to another person—naturally Xiaoyao. This was his achievent.
How exactly it was done could only be explained by Xiaoyao. Even Guxing was sowhat unclear about it. She only knew she could do it, just like many things—being able to do sothing didn't necessarily an knowing the reason!
"Should we go out to eat?" Guxing asked.
"Mm, in such situations we must go out to eat. In such settings, there's a lot of information—we can obtain much intelligence. We can't miss this opportunity," Xiaoyao nodded in response.
"I know I can't help," Guxing said. If others heard this, they would definitely find it inexplicable, but Xiaoyao understood her aning.
"It's fine, I'll handle this. Your cultivation progress is very good—you might break through within a year. Keep working hard!" Xiaoyao said with a smile.
Breaking through within a year would an reaching Saint Level. This seed like an impossible task, because Guxing had just entered Emperor Level peak. Even monster-level geniuses would need several years to break through—one year was too short.
However, Guxing had no understanding of this at all. She never knew how much ti others spent cultivating to break through, nor did she know what constituted a breakthrough. She only knew she had to cultivate, had to break through, and continue walking this path without considering anything else. Once she reached that point, she would understand.
This was also a thinking habit Xiaoyao had cultivated in Guxing—no need to worry about the future, just know what to do now.
"Hehe, I will!" Guxing smiled, just because Xiaoyao had praised her once. Once was enough.
"Let's go eat—we need to have a good al!" Xiaoyao smiled and led Guxing toward the inn's main hall. He couldn't afford a private room, nor was it necessary.
At the sa ti, even if Xiaoyao wanted a private room, it would be impossible since everything was fully booked. Even the main hall was almost out of seats, since there were many people eating at this ti—more than those staying overnight.
Those lodging with civilian families generally wouldn't eat at civilian hos either. Besides feeling embarrassed, most importantly, civilian families didn't provide this service and might not have food they liked.
"There are really enough people here. Let's look for seats..." Xiaoyao pulled Guxing through the main hall with so difficulty, heading toward an empty spot. Although they'd have to share a table, it was better than nothing.
"Excuse , is anyone sitting here?" Xiaoyao asked politely with a bow.
"No, please go ahead!"
"Thank you!"
After thanking them, just as Xiaoyao was about to sit down, he suddenly felt waves of cold stares shooting toward him!
What was wrong? Had he just bumped into them? No, he had been very careful just now. Then why were there such stares? Could it be that he had sat in a place he shouldn't have?
Xiaoyao quickly understood why this was happening—it was because the person he was sharing a table with was a troublemaker!
The law of beautiful troublemakers was equally effective everywhere, in any world, any era...
Xiaoyao hadn't noticed that at the table he had chosen, there was actually a stunningly beautiful girl of troublemaker level sitting there. She looked very refined and was wearing luxurious clothes, which ant she not only had troublemaker-level appearance but also an enviable family background.
Now Xiaoyao had only one choice—
Sit down!!
In the current situation, whether he sat down or not, Xiaoyao was already hated by people. Most importantly, if he didn't sit at this table, there were no other suitable seats left.
Well, no suitable seats didn't an no seats at all. Although it was already very crowded here, squeezing in would still provide seats!
However, the other seats were too mixed with all kinds of people, while this table only had two girls—that troublemaker and another girl who wasn't a troublemaker but was still quite beautiful.
Of course, it wasn't that Xiaoyao was looking for a table with two girls to share. He could sit anywhere, but he had Guxing with him now, and he wanted to find a relatively good seat for her—preferably without ssy people around.
If there were no choice, Guxing wouldn't mind and Xiaoyao could only accept it, but since there was a choice now, why not pick a better one?
When Xiaoyao sat down, the stares from those around beca even sharper, while both girls showed traces of surprise. However, this surprise wasn't because Xiaoyao had sat down.
Although Xiaoyao's behavior was sowhat beyond their expectations—they had been sitting here for so long without anyone daring to share their table. It wasn't that others couldn't see or that no one had tried, but because of pressure, no one dared to sit here.
This pressure ca not only from the people staring nearby—those who wanted to sit here but didn't dare make a move. They were all people not to be trifled with, and the pressure they gave was imnse.
