As soon as they stepped inside the school, the first person they saw not far away was Yin Ziju.
When Ling Luo at that time noticed that Yin Ziju was the one who got out and not Lin Xiao, he suspected that he must have been killed by Yin Ziju. Therefore, he wanted to find an opportunity to avenge Lin Xiao, but couldn’t do it in front of everyone at Yunqi Academy. Now that Ling Luo has come back, Ling Luo still wanted to kill Yin Ziju.
Yin Ziju slowly approached them. Ling Luo’s face became glummer and glummer. When he reached them, he noticed Lin Xiao’s presence and couldn’t help but be surprised. However, he very quickly showed a smile: “I didn’t expect you to come out”
Lin Xiao’s teeth were itching.
But Yunqi Academy prohibited the students from fighting. If they wanted to, they had to fight in the Arena. Plus, Lin Xiao’s cultivation was inferior to Yin Ziju’s. Therefore, no matter what, Lin Xiao had to endure his anger.
He must become more powerful!!!
His wish to get stronger got more intense.
Ling Luo also seemed to have to bear with his fury as he lowered his eyes. He slightly smiled: “Don’t be too arrogant. You will be punished sooner or later” and then he left while tugging at Lin Xiao.
When Lin Xiao turned his head to glance at Yin Ziju, he found that Yin Ziju’s smile has changed into disdain. Lin Xiao tightly clenched his fists, vowing that he will personally deal with Yin Ziju.

“Wanna get stronger?” Huangfu Shan suddenly asked.
“Yes”
“Perhaps I may be able to help you”
Help him? Lin Xiao suddenly thought Xuan Ye’s work on making Ling Luo stronger couldn’t be overlooked. He couldn’t help but eagerly ask: “How?”
“… When the time comes you will naturally know” After answering, no matter how much Lin Xiao insisted, Huangfu Shan wouldn’t reply.
Besides, Lin Xiao wasn’t sure if he could trust her. She was beautiful and confusing.
Her identity was a mystery, her cultivation too, and also her temperament…
Each time Lin Xiao thought that she wouldn’t help him, she unexpectedly did. Other times, when he had a question, she wouldn’t give answers. This time, Lin Xiao recalled that when they were in the mountain valley, she saw the fake Ling Luo and what happened in his dream.
However, she seemed to have recognized Ling Luo and has also met the masked {n} Ling Luo, but why was Huangfu Shan so calm and didn’t ask him anything?
{tl:I… thought that… it meant amiable appearance, which didn’t really make sense… in truth, the chinese characters referred to the human mask Ling Luo was wearing!!! I only realized that now in this context}
Although he felt doubtful, if Huangfu Shan didn’t want to tell him, then Lin Xiao wouldn’t find it necessary to investigate too.

……
They finally had a break in the evening.
Lin Xiao was sitting criss-crossed on the bed cultivating. Ling Luo was also doing the same…
Maybe because he has accumulated enough energy in those days, after a few hours, Lin Xiao’s body suddenly trembled, breaking through the Huang stage High rank! This breakthrough didn’t have the slightest obstructions.
Lin Xiao was conscious that, after experiencing life and death in the cave, being targeted and almost being killed by Huangfu Shan in the mountain valley, those events would improve his cultivation bit by bit. And right now the conditions have been successfully reached, so he eventually broke through.
“Hu” Lin Xiao spit out some impure qi. He noticed that his breakthrough has been faster than his past lifetime’s.
At this moment Ling Luo also stopped cultivating. He discovered that Lin Xiao has reached Huang stage High rank and told him: “Congratulations!”
Lin Xiao laughed. He accepted the compliments without modesty: “Thank you!”
Silence.
After a while, Lin Xiao heard Ling Luo say: “Why did you decide to save me with the Spiritual Xudan Grass?”
Lin Xiao was stupefied. After being quiet for some time, he asked back: “Then why did you choose to head back and save me?” He wasn’t a good person. In the past lifetime, he had grudges with Ling Luo, which still haven’t been settled yet. However, the moment Ling Luo turned back to rescue him, he set them aside. If it wasn’t for Ling Luo, he would have died again.
Ling Luo frankly replied: “I wanted to compensate you. You gave me the Xuyu Grass, and saved my mom’s life… If I didn’t have the grass, my mom would most likely not be there anymore”
… The two looked at each other, and then they laughed. Lin Xiao and Ling Luo should be friends now. Or at least, Ling Luo saw Lin Xiao as a friend.
Lin Xiao couldn’t help but recall his past life’s death, which was such a tragic ending, even implicating his father and his clan. But now he was sure that, this lifetime would be different.
Oh yeah, right. He also wouldn’t live like in his past life. He wouldn’t eat too many Dan Pills in order to achieve Xuan stage. He also wouldn’t let Murong Xue ridicule his fatness when his death would arrive…
His body has lost a lot of weight, mostly thanks to the Refinement Fire Test intended for new students. This was what Lin Xiao was most satisfied about. However, he still was a little chubby. He has evolved from a big fatty into a small fatty. A delicate small fatty is also very cute…
