The sky was overcast, and wisps of rain fell from the sky onto the sea, rippling in circles. Bathed in the golden light of the twilight, they resembled blooming golden flowers.
In a park by the sea, a six or seven-year-old boy was wielding a wooden sword. Though small in stature, his swordsmanship was impenetrable, blocking most of the raindrops falling from the sky.
"Whoosh!"
With a casual flourish, Lin Xuan sheathed his sword and stood upright.
[Basic Swordsmanship Level 4 (121/800)]
[Simple Meditation Method Level 3: (40/300)]
This Simple Meditation Method is a low-level meditation method taught to students by Red Mountain Academy, with absolutely no amplification effect.
Even now, at level 3, Lin Xuan can say that his mastery of this meditation method is comparable to that of a veteran who has immersed himself in it for many years, but he still doesn't feel any effect.
It's just a common, low-level skill, and it probably won't change even after dozens of levels. The proficiency required to upgrade a system skill by one level doubles. The meditation effect is mediocre, but his hard-earned swordsmanship has yielded significant results.
Lin Xuan frantically practiced Basic Swordsmanship dozens of times every day, spending a whole month, and finally managed to reach the fourth level of Basic Swordsmanship.
At the fourth level of Basic Swordsmanship, in his previous life, he would be considered a master swordsman, capable of defeating seven or eight ordinary people without a problem.
During this month, Lin Xuan also discovered some details about the system. The skills included in the system have thresholds; things like eating and drinking are not included in the system.
"Tang Sect or Shrek Academy should be good choices, and Body Sect is also an option,"
Lin Xuan pondered his future plans.
He started in Aolai City and had already made connections with Tang Wulin. Going to Tang Sect and Shrek Academy with Tang Wulin was clearly the simplest and most profitable option. All hehad to do was run away before Shrek Academy was blown up.
What? A belief in protecting Shrek Academy and Tang Sect?
Lin Xuan thought, what transmigrator has that?!
If he really wanted to go solo, going to Body Sect wasn't out of the question either; it was a good choice. Putting aside everything else, that Body Sect secret technique was practically useless under the system's protection.
"Little sister, where are your parents? Big brother has a big treasure, want to see it?"
Just as Lin Xuan was deep in thought, a lewd laugh came from not far away.
A group of thugs with dyed hair surrounded a five or six-year-old white-haired loli, laughing lewdly, clearly with ill intentions.
"Little sister, why aren't you saying anything? Why don't you come with me?"
The leader, a blond-haired youth, saw that the little loli didn't speak, and a strange glint flashed in his eyes. He reached out to grab her.
White hair, loli, those noble lords of the underground merchant guild loved this type the most.
"Let go!"
The little loli let out a cold, low shout, her expression unfriendly, her face carrying a calmness that didn't match her age.
"I... let go? You dare to scare me! You little brat! Don't you know whose territory this is!"
The blond-haired youth felt a chill run down his spine when the little loli glared at him, but then he became angry and embarrassed, reaching out to the little loli's waist, intending to forcibly take her away.
Lin Xuan watched this scene, thoughtful.
He was about to step forward and show off his skills, but the next second he stopped abruptly and quickly took two steps back to avoid getting blood on himself.
"Bang! Bang bang!!!"
The little girl's eyes suddenly changed, turning completely purple, like two dazzling stars, and her aura changed drastically.
With a casual pull of her bamboo-like arms, she dragged the blond-haired guy to the ground, then swatted him around like a mop.
The blond-haired guy screamed incessantly, his face smeared with snot and blood, looking absolutely miserable! And there were white unidentified objects flying around in the air, which he guessed were his teeth.
Ouch~ It looks painful!
Lin Xuan secretly gasped, feeling the protagonist's chill, his eyelids twitching!
The white-haired little girl's ferocious appearance frightened the remaining thugs, who trembled and dared not move an inch!
"Get lost!"
The white-haired little girl glared coldly at the group. Then, with a flick of her wrist, the blond-haired boy transformed into a human-shaped cannonball and flew out, knocking the surrounding thugs to the ground.
Instantly, cries of agony echoed through the air!
To everyone present, the small white-haired girl's body now resembled a god, radiating unparalleled power—a contempt and suppression on a higher level of existence.
The thugs, no longer daring to harbor any wicked thoughts, scrambled to their feet, carrying the unconscious blond-haired boy away in a chaotic ruckus.
Once the thugs were gone, the purple light in the white-haired girl's eyes faded, and her body went limp, collapsing to the ground.
"This…something doesn't seem right!"
Lin Xuan stroked his chin, observing the little girl from afar.
It was obvious this white-haired girl was the incarnation of the Silver Dragon King, but what happened to the amnesia?
Where was his beautiful, sweet, and easily swayed Na'er?!
The icy indifference in the little girl's eyes just now was clearly the Silver Dragon King's consciousness at work.
"Should I pick her up?"
Lin Xuan knelt down in front of the little girl, hesitant.
He hadn't stayed home practicing his swordsmanship; he'd come all this way, partly hoping for a stroke of luck. Now he'd stumbled upon her, but the plot seemed a little different.
"Could it be that this coma caused her amnesia?"
Lin Xuan wondered.
What if she woke up without amnesia and just killed him? He didn't have the Golden Dragon King's get-out-of-jail-free card.
"Why not take it? Within the Federation, she can't possibly kill me!"
Lin Xuan finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
Pick her up!
He grabbed the little girl from the ground, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and headed home.
The Silver Dragon King's visit this time was most likely aimed at Tang Wulin. Lin Xuan gambled that even if she hadn't lost her memory, she wouldn't choose to alert him and attack him.
These two dragon kings shared a special bloodline attraction. This was his only chance to capture the Silver Dragon King. This guaranteed at least one true god; the rewards far outweighed the risks!
A gamble could pay off, and more friends meant more opportunities.
If things got tough with humans, he could always use them as a backup. In this world where the Tang family held absolute power, the Silver Dragon King was one of the few potential breakthroughs.
Lin Xuan was quite confident he could survive.
As everyone knew, the villains in Dragon King Legend were the most civilized group of villains; they even had a competition before destroying the world!
This was definitely the most civilized episode ever!
Meanwhile, on the other side, Tang Wulin, who was enjoying a delicious dinner at home, suddenly froze, a sense of loss washing over him, and his appetite diminished.
"What's wrong, Wu Lin!"
Lang Yue's voice rang out with concern. The child was eating just now, why did he suddenly freeze here?
"N-nothing..."
Tang Wu Lin shook his head and continued eating silently.
"Did any classmates bully you at school? If so, you must tell your father, don't be afraid!"
Tang Zi Ran asked with a frown.
Tang Wu Lin was in the Soul Master class. It was normal for children in the class to compare their martial souls, but it was unacceptable for them to bully his son!
"No, no! With Brother Xuan around, no one dares to bully me!"
Tang Wu Lin's tone became a little cheerful when he said this, but then it became somber again.
"But Brother Xuan is different from me!"
"What's wrong? Isn't Xiao Xuan's martial soul Green Leaf Grass?"
Lang Yue added another bowl of rice to Tang Wu Lin's bowl and asked in surprise. He had heard Tang Zi Ran say that Lin Xuan was an obedient and good child.
"The teacher said that Brother Xuan's martial soul has mutated, and his soul power is already at level eight!"
Tang Wu Lin said sullenly.
He had initially thought his friends were all ugly ducklings, but suddenly they had transformed into golden phoenixes.
Although Lin Xuan protected him at school and no one dared to mess with him, the feeling of being completely inferior to his friends still made him feel terrible.
"So Xiao Xuan has this kind of talent! Why didn't he tell us back then! He even kept it from me!"
Tang Ziran clicked his tongue, his tone tinged with resentment.
He considered himself a close friend of Lin Xuan despite their age difference!
"Heh! Kept it from you? Did you even ask him what level of soul power he had?"
Lang Yue glared at Tang Ziran, saying irritably. She knew Tang Ziran well; he must have forgotten to ask.
"Uh, I really didn't!"
Tang Ziran scratched his head, giving an embarrassed chuckle.
