Practice begins with collecting character cards

Chapter 242 Genius Xiaoyao
"Sometimes it's not a good thing to rely too much on a single fighting method." Xu Gu'an looked at the corpse that fell into the alley in front of him, and he took a warning in his heart.

Just like these Vulcan cultists, their flames are indeed powerful, just like magic. In front of these flames, ordinary masters of innate internal strength may have to avoid the edge for a while.

However, today I met Xu Guan who was like a nemesis. After his fire ability was completely useless, there was no room for him to fight back.

Xu Guan also has the ability to perfectly control flames, which is why he is not affected by the opponent's flames.

But in his battle, this fire ability will only be one of his trump cards in the future, not the only means of fighting.

Xu Guan's eyes turned elsewhere. At the end of the alley, several figures stood upright, looking at Xu Guan quietly.

There are five people in total. They are wearing uniforms of the government. Their identities are self-evident. They are official servants of the government.

On the other side, several more people came from the entrance of the alley. They were also wearing official uniforms, but they were different from the five people.

Xu Guan recognized that these people were the top catchers in the government yamen, and they were quite famous catchers.

Each of these people has innate level cultivation strength, and they are the main force in maintaining law and order in the big city.

The battle on Xu Guan's side didn't last long, and the movement wasn't actually very big, but it still attracted these two official groups.

It can be seen that the other party was actually on guard and discovered the whereabouts of these cultists who had sneaked into the city in advance.

A head catcher stepped forward to inspect the corpse of the cultist, and then said with a strange look on his face.

"Being able to kill this cultist one on one, my strength is really shocking!"

This group of people witnessed Xu Guan killing cultists here, and it was useless to try to cover it up.

The head catcher quickly determined based on his experience that the dead cultist had an innate internal strength level of combat power.

And Xu Gu'an, who was the killer, naturally made them all look at him with admiration.

After all, no matter how you look at Xu Guan, he looks too young.

"This person broke into my house without permission and deliberately committed murder. Several people arrived in time, which saved him from having to report to the police later." Xu Guan said aloud, saying that he was acting in self-defense.

"Oh? Do you know their identities, little friend?" the head catcher asked.

"Of course we know that the cultists have ulterior motives and everyone will find them and punish them." Xu Gu'an said.

"That's true, but after all, little friend killed someone, you still have to go with us, and you need to check your residential address." The head catcher nodded and said.

His tone was quite polite. At Xu Guan's age and strength, he did not dare to offend easily for fear of incurring Xu Guan's hatred.

Seeing this, Xu Guan knew that the rules were like this, so he didn't make any further excuses.

"Little brother, do you know that there are other cultists appearing in the city?" The official on the other side suddenly asked.

"I don't know. I only saw three people, and they were all beaten to death by me." Xu Guan shook his head.

There were actually four people he killed, but one of them had already been burned by him, so he only mentioned three to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding.

"Guys, just leave this matter to our government officials. You can go and have a rest." The catcher nodded, then turned around and said loudly to the officials.

"Captain Fang, don't forget the traces of these cultists that you and I found together today." The official's voice came down.

"Don't worry, it's not easy for a few people to stay on guard. I won't take all the credit tonight." The head catcher responded.

The officer got the answer he wanted, and left satisfied.

Seeing this, Xu Guan realized that the officials in this big city were not all united and monolithic.

There is an obvious competitive relationship between the government and government departments privately, and it seems that other departments are also very similar.

But to Xu Guan, this doesn't matter much.

"What's your name, little friend?" the catcher asked with a smile.

The catcher was old and seemed quite charitable.

Other arresters with equally extraordinary skills followed him, and they all followed the old catcher, which showed that this catcher had a high status.

"The junior's surname is Xu, Xu Gu'an, and he is a student of the Grandmaster Martial Arts Academy." Xu Gu'an cupped his hands.

"It turns out that he is a student of the Grand Master's Martial Arts Academy. Xu Xiaoyou is so young and has such strength. It is really amazing." Fang Changlin sighed, but his mind was searching for information about Xu Guan.

However, after thinking about it, there was no information related to Xu Guan.

He couldn't help but find it very puzzling. Logically speaking, such an amazingly talented person from the Grand Master's Martial Academy should have become famous in the city long ago.

However, Xu Guan has no reputation and is too low-key.

After thinking about it, Fang Changlin did not continue to ask about Xu Guan's origins, which was annoying.

Returning to what happened tonight, Xu Guan led the group of detectives to the house to investigate and collect the remaining two corpses.

Zhang Yang and others were already alarmed at this time, and they were still frightened after learning the whole story.

"Fortunately, Young Master is very powerful, otherwise we would be helpless if this happened." Zhang Yang shook his head.

He had seen the cruelty and madness of the cultists. Without Xu Guan in the house, they would have been unable to resist.

Originally, he thought that the city would be very safe as it was heavily guarded.

But these cultists seemed to be pervasive, making him feel a little uneasy even in the center of the city.

"Okay, little friend Xu, just come with me." Fang Changlin took away the corpses of several Vulcan cultists, and then said politely to Xu Gu'an.

Xu Guan nodded, very cooperative.

There was some worry on Zhang Yang's face. Although these cultists deserved their death, Xu Guan had killed someone in the city after all, and he didn't know how he would be dealt with.

Xu Guan expressed his peace of mind, saying that he was not worried about himself, but rather worried about their safety, especially Xiaoyao's.

"Senior, after I leave, I am worried that other cult members will come here. Can you arrange some manpower here?" Xu Guan said.

"Well, don't worry, even if you don't tell me, I will have people take care of this place." Fang Changlin nodded.

If other cult members come to his door and are captured by him, it will be a great achievement for him.

"Thank you, senior." Xu Guan cupped his hands and followed Fang Changlin to the city government office for questioning.

The main thing is to ask questions about cultists.

Why did they come to Xu Guan's house, what did they want, how did the conflict break out, and whether there were any traces of other cultists.

It was naturally impossible for Xu Guan to tell everything he knew.

The most important thing is that he doesn't want to expose Xiaoyao's peerless genius, for fear of causing greater troubles and disputes, or even alarming the Ye family or even the grandmaster!

Therefore, what he said is [-]% true and [-]% false.

Until early in the morning, Xu Guan originally thought that the interrogation would continue, but Fang Changlin suddenly came in a hurry and signaled that Xu Guan could leave without incident. He even apologized to Xu Guan for wasting his time.Xu Guan felt strange, and after asking for a moment, he found out that it was the eldest son of the Ye family who sent someone to give instructions this time.

Let them release him directly after asking questions, skipping other interrogation and judgment processes.

"This is Young Master Ye." Xu Guan understood and didn't know what to say for a moment.

To show kindness so proactively and be so interested in him is really not in line with the status of the other party's grandmaster and the favored son of heaven.

In Xu Guan's impression, even if the geniuses in such a big family are not arrogant and arrogant, they should be aloof and have something to hold on to. How could they come so proactively?

Xu Guan didn't know how strong the shock he had given Ye Tianhuan that day. His show of kindness to Xu Guan was a decision he made after weighing it in his mind, and it was also a decision based on the Ye family's standpoint.

After all, he is the prefix of Heaven's Proud Son, and he also has the title of the eldest young master of the Ye family.

And this kind of show of goodwill is indeed useful, Xu Guan cannot turn a blind eye.

At least now Xu Guan has some good feelings for Ye Tianhuan and even the Ye family.

Back at the house, Zhang Yang and others were relieved to see Xu Guan back safely so quickly.

"It's okay, let's go and do our own work." Xu Gu'an said.

Returning to the inner courtyard, the mess here and some damage caused by the battle have been repaired and restored to their original appearance.

"Master." Xiaoyao stood there at a loss.

She knew that those cultists were all here for her.

If it weren't for her existence, Xu Gu'an wouldn't have had so many things happen tonight, which made her feel a little guilty.

She felt that she was a scourge, and she hesitated whether to stay here.

But in her heart, she couldn't bear to leave here.

"Xiaoyao." Xu Guan glanced at her, and then suddenly said: "Do you want to practice with me?"

"Ah!" Xiaoyao originally thought that Xu Guan wanted to drive her away, but she didn't expect that Xu Guan would suddenly change the subject and offer to teach her how to practice.

"I, is it okay?" Xiaoyao said blankly.

"If you are willing, I will teach you physical training and martial arts from now on." Xu Guan nodded.

"Of course, I am willing!" Xiaoyao came to her senses and reacted quickly. She knelt down and saluted Xu Guan.

I don’t know where she learned the etiquette, but it seems that she only learned it roughly. After kneeling down, she opened her mouth and didn’t know what to say next.

"Get up, you are still my maid, and I am not accepting you as a disciple. There is no need to do this." Xu Guan waved his hand.

"Yes." Xiao Yao stood up angrily and scratched her head, feeling a little embarrassed for her overreaction just now.

"Come in with me." Xu Guan turned around and entered the inner room.

There are two futons on the open space in the house, and the two of them sit facing each other.

Xiaoyao was sitting upright, with an unconcealable excitement on her face, which showed that she had actually been fascinated by cultivation for a long time.

Especially after experiencing the sadness of being outside and being frightened by the incoming cultists recently, she was extremely eager to become stronger.

He had witnessed Xu Guan's strength with his own eyes, including his powerful performance that night, and now she felt her heart tremble every time she recalled it, and she respected Xu Guan even more.

She only felt that she was so lucky to be able to get Xu Gu'an's guidance and preaching.

"I will only teach you once, be careful not to get distracted." Xu Guan said first.

"Yes, Master!" Xiaoyao straightened her back, extremely focused, and nodded solemnly.

Since Xu Gu'an did not formally accept him as a disciple, she could only continue to call Xu Gu'an as her son.

Xu Guan didn't talk too much and went straight to the point and started preaching.

He has been clearing many dungeons so far, and has also obtained many body-refining techniques.

Some are sporadic skin-grinding and bone-forging methods, while others are a complete set of body-training methods that are the result of the four realms of family body-training.

With nothing to do, Xu Guan accumulated most of these body-training techniques to the perfection state through experience scrolls, plus the super-limit body-training techniques that he had cultivated all the way.

Now he has taken the advantages of various body-training methods, integrated them into his own body-training concepts, and created his own set of body-training methods.

Compared with other body-training methods in the outside world, his body-training method has a relatively higher entry barrier. He estimated that it would be difficult to get started with his body-training method without qualifications above C level.

Although the requirements are much more stringent, his body-training method is correspondingly more reasonable. Once he gets started, the body-training efficiency is more efficient than any body-training method he has ever seen, and the body-training effect is also better. .

This leads to the fact that a person who practices his body-refining method will only be stronger than other body-refining practitioners at the same level of body-refining!
And with the same qualifications and the same resources, cultivation will only be faster than other body refiners!
Therefore, Xu Guan was quite satisfied with his masterpiece, which he had only recently completed.

Xiaoyao can be regarded as the first practitioner of this body-training method in the true sense.

And Xiaoyao lived up to her excellent qualifications. She quickly understood it after reading it over and over again, and then slowly got into the state until she was completely familiar with it.

"It doesn't take more than a stick of incense, tsk tsk" Xu Guan watched Xiaoyao go from comprehension to entry mastery, and he could only describe it as relaxed and freehand.

Even though he couldn't help but lament the injustice of God, the gap between people was really too big.

After learning the body-training method, Xiaoyao immediately started her first practice.

Everything fell into place without any resistance, and Xu Guan didn't even need much guidance. Xiaoyao's first body training went smoothly as well.

The only thing that can hinder her body-refining progress is that she is still an ordinary person.

After the first exercise, she lay on the ground exhausted and unable to move.

Xu Guan placed a plate of prepared meat supplements on the stone table in the courtyard.

The cooked meat was steaming hot and fragrant, making Xiao Yao swallow her saliva.

"Come and eat, it's prepared for you. From now on, you will need to take this kind of meat supplement every time you finish training." Xu Guan said.

And such a good thing!

Xiaoyao immediately got up from the ground with great effort, resisting the pain in her body, sat down at the stone table and began to enjoy.

She has always cherished the opportunity to eat meat.

After all, she has eaten meat only a handful of times since she was a child, and the most envious thing every day is seeing others eating meat.

"Master, Xiaoyao is so happy." Xiaoyao's eyes were shining and her mouth was not big. She stuffed a piece of meat into it like a hamster and spoke vaguely.

"Eat slowly, although this meat is not the fourth-order animal meat before, it is not easy for you to digest." Xu Guan reminded Xiaoyao by knocking on Xiaoyao's head with his chopsticks.

"Yes, son."
