I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 672

Chapter 672: Xiaoli and Xiaobai, the Crisis of Their Home World

In the blink of an eye, over a decade had passed.

In the deep pool of the valley where Lu Qing had been in seclusion, a head suddenly emerged, gazing toward the cave.

It was the white dragon.

Over a decade later, the wound on the white dragon’s head had long since healed.

Even the aura emanating from it had grown considerably stronger.

Clearly, during these years, being at the center of the heavenly formation transformed by Lu Qing had reaped numerous benefits, its cultivation significantly enhanced.

Gazing toward the cave, the white dragon’s eyes held a hint of anticipation.

According to the schedule, today was Xiao Li’s day out, and it had ended its training early to wait for him.

Sure enough, not long after, the stone door of the cave suddenly opened, and a dark figure suddenly flew out.

“Xiao Li!”

The white dragon’s eyes lit up with surprise, and it immediately called out through telepathy.

“Xiao Bai, have you missed me these past six months?”

Xiao Li rolled in the air, landing steadily on a large rock in front of the deep pool.

“Yes, I’ve been waiting for you here since early morning!”

The white dragon nodded its head, causing the water to ripple gently.

Then it glanced behind Xiao Li, but seeing no other figure, it couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s Brother Wuxing?”

“You mean that stinky snake? It keeps pestering you. I’m tired of it, so I told Ah Qing it’s under house arrest and can’t come out.”

Xiao Li waved his paw, dismissive.

“Is that so? That’s good.”

The white dragon heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

It was still somewhat intimidated by Wuxing; his gaze was truly intense and overwhelming.

Although its cultivation level was higher than Wuxing’s, Wuxing was the master’s pet, so it didn’t dare act rashly.

Hearing that Wuxing was under house arrest, it felt relieved.

Relaxed, the white dragon flicked its tail, and the next moment, more than a dozen palm-sized, colorful spirit fish suddenly flew out of the pond and hovered in front of Xiao Li.

“Xiao Li, this is the spirit fish I caught for you. Do you think it’s tasty?”

“Thank you, Xiao Bai!”

Xiao Li’s eyes lit up at the sight of the dozen or so spirit fish. With a flick of his claws, he snatched one up and began devouring it.

This was Xiao Bai’s favorite thing about him. Whenever he came, he’d catch some spirit fish from the bottom of the pool for him.

“Xiao Li, how does it taste? These spirit fish live very deep underwater, so they’re usually hard to catch,”

the white dragon said, looking at Xiao Li with a hint of praise .

“Mm-hmm, delicious. I used to eat spirit fish often, but then Ah Qing got busy with his cultivation, so we rarely had the chance to catch them.” Xiao Li

ate and sighed, “I still miss the days when Ah Qing took Xiao Yan and me fishing by the river.”

While the Tianyuan World was wonderful, Xiao Li felt that the happiest days were back in his home world.

“So you can’t go back now?”

the white dragon asked curiously.

“It’s not that we can’t go back, but we have to wait until Ah Qing breaks through before we can go home. Otherwise, the journey back could be quite dangerous.”

“Dangerous?”

Bai Jiao was stunned. With that master’s unfathomable strength, returning home was actually dangerous. Just what kind of terrifying place was Xiao Li and his family’s hometown?

“Okay, let’s not talk about that anymore. Ah Qing said that after his retreat is over, we’ll be able to go home soon, and then I’ll be able to see Xiao Yan again!”

Xiao Li couldn’t help but look at this, anticipation in his eyes.

He hadn’t seen Xiao Yan in ages, and he missed her terribly.

“You’re leaving after that master’s retreat is over?”

Hearing Xiao Li’s words, Bai Jiao’s heart darkened.

It had been so rare for him to make such a good friend over the years, and he hadn’t expected to leave so soon.

Seeing Xiao Li’s anticipation, Bai Jiao said nothing.

Over the years, he had chatted with Xiao Li here almost every six months.

So he knew how much that human girl named Xiao Yan meant to him.

He had only known Xiao Li for a short time, and they could only chat once every six months. His status was simply incomparable to his.

For the rest of the day, Xiao Li ate spirit fish while chatting with Bai Jiao.

It was mostly Xiao Li talking, and Bai Jiao listening.

After all, Bai Jiao had never left the Myriad Demons Mountains since birth, and even after his father’s death, he had been cultivating in this deep pool.

His entire life was, if not a blank slate, pretty much the same.

Xiao Li, on the other hand, was different. Shortly after waking up, he followed Lu Qing.

His experiences in his home world over the years had been remarkable enough.

Later, he crossed the endless starry sky and arrived in the Tianyuan World. He had experienced so much.

Just two of these were enough to make Bai Jiao gasp in amazement, and he looked at Xiao Li with admiration.

An outsider witnessing this scene would undoubtedly be stunned.

A white dragon, its head as huge as a hill, gazed with adoration at a small civet cat with fur as black as flame, eating fish on a large rock while engaging in a lively conversation.

The scene was bizarre no matter how one looked at it.

As they chatted, Xiao Li finished off the dozen or so spirit fish.

After a full burp, he clapped his paws and stood up from the boulder. “Alright, I’m going back to practice, Xiaobai. See you in six months.”

“Ah, Xiaoli, are you going back?”

Bai Jiao, absorbed in listening, suddenly woke up and looked at Xiaoli with reluctance.

“Yes, I’ve been out for a long time. I need to go back and continue my practice. Ah Qing is getting stronger and stronger. If I don’t work harder, I’ll be even further behind him,” Xiaoli said seriously.

Bai Jiao, despite his reluctance, could only say, “Then Xiaoli, you should hurry back. Practice is more important.”

“Then I’ll go first. It’s a pity you don’t know how to transform, Xiaobai. Otherwise, if you could shrink your body, you could come into the cave with me to practice.”

Xiaoli waved his paw and flew up. In a flash, he was inside the cave and closed the stone door.

Bai Jiao was left alone, staring blankly at the cave.

After a while, remembering what Xiao Li had just said, he muttered to himself, “Transformation technique?”

Then, his body slowly sank, disappearing into the deep pool, returning to the underwater cave where he had been training.

“Big Sister Xiao Li, what did you and Xiao Bai talk about just now? Why did you talk for so long?”

Elsewhere, as Xiao Li had just returned to the cave, Wu Xing approached with a smirk, inquiring.

“What we were talking about is none of your business. Stay away from me!” Xiao Li glared at him.

“I told you, stinking snake, Xiao Bai doesn’t like you. If you keep pestering him, I’ll tell A Qing and have him stuff you into the Qiankun Qi Bag and keep you locked up for decades!”

“No, Big Sister! I don’t want to stay in the Qiankun Qi Bag anymore!”

Wu Xing’s face suddenly turned panicked, and he frantically fell to the ground, begging Xiao Li for mercy.

Since arriving in the Tianyuan World, he had spent most of his time in the Qiankun Qi Bag and was truly tired of it.

It also realized that the longer it stayed in the Qiankun Yiqi Bag, the greater the gap between it and Xiaoli.

If it remained imprisoned for decades longer, it wondered if Xiaoli would have reached the ninth level of the Golden Core by the time it emerged.

So, this time, it refused to remain in the Qiankun Yiqi Bag for any longer.

“I don’t want to be imprisoned again. Stop pestering Xiaobai. He’s my good friend now. If I find out you’re bullying him, I won’t let you off!”

Xiaoli clenched his claws and waved at Wuxing.

Wuxing shuddered, then grimacefully replied, “Yes, I understand, Big Sister. I won’t dare harass Xiaobai again.”

Although it loved Xiaobai and felt a special attraction to him,

Xiaoli’s threat was more intimidating.

After careful consideration, Wuxing resigned itself to its fate.

“That’s good to know. I’m going to practice now. Stop bothering me and practice!

It’s been so long, and I’m about to start practicing the third transformation of the [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon], and you’ve only just mastered the first.

Your practice speed is too slow, it’s really embarrassing me. If I had known, I wouldn’t have passed it on to you!”

Xiao Li scolded mercilessly.

As for Wu Xing, he lowered his head, not daring to refute.

He had actually noticed that as he practiced longer, Xiao Li’s cultivation speed became faster than his.

Back in their home world, they had overcome the Jindan tribulation together and achieved the Jindan realm on the same day.

But after entering the Tianyuan Great World, his cultivation speed had fallen further and further behind Xiao Li.

Now Xiao Li’s cultivation had broken through to the fifth stage of the Jindan realm, while he had only just completed the third stage.

Even practicing the same [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon], his mastery was much slower than Xiao Li’s.

Wu Xing couldn’t help but recall the time when they had undergone the Jindan Tribulation. He had only survived seven thunderbolts, while Xiao Li had survived the strongest nine.

Perhaps if he had fought harder, surviving one or two more thunderbolts, the gap between him and Xiao Li would have been much smaller.

Unfortunately, there were no ifs.

Given his condition back then, even one more thunderbolt would have likely resulted in his immediate annihilation, his soul shattering.

Seeing Wu Xing stop talking, Xiao Li ignored him, returned to his own spot, and began to cultivate. What he had said to Xiao Bai before hadn’t been a lie.   He truly missed Xiao Yan and wanted to return to her as soon

as possible .   However, before returning, he needed to cultivate even more vigorously, only then could he surprise Xiao Yan.   Thinking of the look of surprise on Xiao Yan’s face when she saw his prowess, Xiao Li’s motivation to cultivate grew even stronger.   Entering his cultivation state, Xiao Li had no idea that, on the other side, in his home world, far away at the edge of the starry sky,…   It missed Xiaoyan, who was currently engaged in a fierce battle.   Boom!   A mighty rumble erupted from the sky above a deep mountain. Countless energies erupted, and black demonic energy and sword energy flew in all directions, shattering the vast forest below.   ”Hahaha, Fairy Lu, while your swordsmanship is brilliant, your cultivation is still relatively incomplete. You can’t defeat me for now!”   A tall figure, shrouded in black energy, laughed heartily in the sky.   ”I can’t believe you, a demon from the ancient era of immortal cultivation, have survived tens of thousands of years of spiritual energy depletion, surviving to this day and even possessing the body of a true disciple of the Guiyuan Sect. If you hadn’t accidentally revealed your true identity this time, we wouldn’t have noticed you.”   Facing it, Xiaoyan, dressed in azure and holding a longsword, looked like a female swordsman descended from the nine heavens, her face icy with frost.   ”Haha, no matter how well you hid it, you still found it, Fairy Lu. You’re truly worthy of being the sister of the number one master in the world. Your talent, even in my time, would have been considered extraordinary and unrivaled.   It’s a pity you’ve cultivated for so little time. If you had cultivated for a few more decades, I’m afraid even I wouldn’t be able to withstand your blade.”   The dark figure opposite exclaimed in admiration.   ”In no time, I’ll slay you with my sword right now!”   Xiaoyan raised her eyebrows, and the sword in her hand instantly emanated a cloud of sword energy, slashing towards the dark figure.   However, facing Xiaoyan’s fierce attack, the dark figure remained calm. With a casual wave of her hand, layers of demonic energy emanated from his body, transforming into a cloud of demonic energy dozens of feet in radius, enveloping him completely.   The cloud of demonic energy was extremely resilient, and Xiaoyan’s sword energy was like a drop in the ocean.   Despite the surging demonic energy, even after the sword’s energy was exhausted, it was unable to truly pierce it.   ”Fairy Lu, it’s useless. I’ve told you before, no matter how many times you try, with your current level of cultivation, you can’t break through my Ten Thousand Demons Light Smoke Miasma.”

The demonic figure spoke calmly.

Xiaoyan’s face remained expressionless.

But she knew the other party was right.

Although she wasn’t exerting her full strength yet and still had some cards up her sleeve, it was clear that the old demon before her, who had lived for who knows how many years, must have more. If she

continued to fight, she would be unable to defeat the old demon.

More importantly, she sensed two powerful evil auras approaching from afar.

If these evil demons gathered, she would be trapped here.

Thinking of this, Xiaoyan no longer hesitated. After a deep look at the evil demon, whose face was shrouded in black aura and could not be seen clearly, she transformed into a sword light and fled behind her.

The black figure saw this and did not make a move to stop it. Instead, he watched Xiaoyan

‘s sword light disappear into the sky. Just as Xiaoyan disappeared, two figures, also emitting demonic auras, approached from afar.

“Master, where’s Lu Xiaoyan?”

one of the figures looked around and saw no sign of the legendary female swordsman.

“She’s gone,” the demonic figure said calmly.

At the same time, the demonic aura on his face dissipated, revealing an incredibly handsome face, yet with a hint of evil. (End of Chapter)
