The topic of why Xiao Xun'er didn't play with children her age was interrupted by Xiao Zhan. He stood beside Xiao Xun'er and watched the children play from a distance. Although the distance was quite far, he could still hear the laughter and play of many children, including Xiao Yan's.
This left Xiao Zhan speechless for a moment, feeling that Xiao Yan really considered himself a child to be able to play so happily.
"Is Uncle Xiao Zhan busy?" asked Xiao Xun'er, apparently feeling that her previous attitude towards Uncle Xiao Zhan was a bit strange and indifferent.
Xiao Zhan turned his head to the side and looked at Xiao Xun'er beside him, asking, "Why do you say that?"
"Because Uncle Xiao Zhan has never been to the Xiao house, and when he comes back occasionally, he always seems to be in a hurry and looks abnormally busy," explained Xiao Xun'er softly, although in the depths of her heart, she couldn't help but think of her father.
The time she spent with her father, Gu Yuan, was actually not that long, but even within the Gu Clan, he didn't have much time to accompany her. As patriarch, he always seemed to be busy with things.
Xiao Zhan reflected for a moment and said, "Actually, it's not about being busy or not."
"What do you mean?" asked Xiao Xun'er, not understanding the meaning of that sentence.
Xiao Zhan explained, "It's about the search for life. In life, there must be some pursuit."
"Search for life?" asked Xiao Xun'er, still confused.
"Yes, what you see belongs to my occupation. On the contrary, it's just me practicing my personal pursuit and striving for a certain goal," Xiao Zhan explained.
Xiao Zhan's words are a bit confusing, but it's actually what he thinks in his heart. Traveling to this world has become an established fact, but he doesn't want his own destiny to be predetermined and be a supporting role to fulfill the so-called protagonist. He wants to have control of his destiny and strive for a certain goal.
With his current strength, in the Jia Ma Empire, he can barely see the maximum landscape, but if he is placed in the Dou Qi Continent, it's not enough. It has been more than a year since Gu Yuan first arrived at the Xiao family. In over a year, he went from Dou Ling peak to Dou Huang. This speed is not slow in the Dou Qi Continent. But there are only just over two years left before the Celestial Tomb pact, and counting the time to travel by then, he would only have two years to reach the strength of a Dou Zun.
Relying on supplements, there is still hope. But Xiao Zhan was still unwilling to give up. In two years, relying solely on the auxiliary training system can only increase strength by a few stars at most. The orthodox way of improving strength is useless. The auction house made a deal and asked the Mittel family to help collect qi cultivation medicines. In addition to improving the overall strength of the Xiao family, these medicines can also be used by himself. Although it may not be of much use to him, who is already a fighter emperor, with the blessing of the supplement, it's better than nothing. It would be even better if there were sixth-level monsters and high-level pills.
After all, it usually takes a long time to absorb energy between the sky and the earth, except in some places with particularly abundant energy. It's more efficient to directly absorb the magic core of the energy crystal.
It's a pity that even the Mittel auction house can't obtain a sixth-order magic core, which is equivalent to the human power of a Douhuang. Looking across the Jia Ma Empire, there are only a few people who are Douhuang-level powers. Apart from Hai Bodong, who lives in seclusion in Mocheng, Mi, the elder of the Te'er family, is the strongest, but he is no more than a fighter king.
After talking with Xiao Xun'er for a while, Xiao Zhan couldn't stay with her the whole time and left again. After Xiao Zhan left, Xiao Xun'er also left.
Although Uncle Xiao Zhan's words were somewhat difficult to understand, she still understood part of them.
Uncle Xiao Zhan is very busy pursuing his own goals in life.
So, she should also have her own goals in life.
The atmospheres of the Gu Clan and the Xiao Clan are very different, which makes the Gu Clan and the Xiao Clan two different worlds, but different worlds don't necessarily become equal.
Her father, as the strongest in the ancient clan, can't change all of this, so it's up to her to surpass her father and change the ancient clan.
Although Xiao Xun'er matured much more precociously than children of the same age, she was still just a girl after all, so it was inevitable that she had some naive fantasies belonging to children, just like many children who clamored to become emperor fighters when they were young, but finally stopped at fighting. As children, it seems like there is only a difference of two words, but in fact it is a world of difference.
A goal in life is a goal in life, and whether it can be achieved is another matter.
It is still unknown whether Xiao Xun'er can achieve her goal in the future, but at this moment, since she has made a decision, she has also set her first small goal, which is to first refine the fire in her body so that she will not become a burden again.
...
The Mittel family moved very quickly. After all, with so many magic cores, it is a big problem.
Therefore, Xiao Zhan quickly found many medicines to improve cultivation efficiency and, at the same time, many medicinal materials for medicinal baths that Xiao Zhan needed. Among the many medicines, the most valuable are three Sanwen Qingling pills and two Purple Heart Breaking Barrier pills.
The Sanwen Qingling Pill can make a Doushi break the limit of being promoted to a Great Doushi. If it is the highest rank, it can even make a Great Doushi increase their strength by three stars in a short time. Although there is a risk of backlash, it is also effective. It is extraordinary, but unfortunately, what Xiao Zhan found at the Mittel auction house was only the more common three-patterned green spirit pill. If lucky, these three three-patterned green spirit pills can add two or three great fighters to the Xiao family division.
As for the Purple Heart Breaking Barrier Pill, it is the same as the Sanwen Qingling Pill. It is a maximum fourth-grade master-level pill. People at this level, if they take the Purple Heart Breaking Barrier Pill, can increase their strength by one star. Most importantly, a person, at the same level, can take two pills of this type in succession without producing too much resistance.
It is a pity that the Mittel family can only find fourth-grade pills at the highest level, and this is obtained in exchange for those fourth-grade magic cores. What Xiao Zhan wants more is actually the Huangji Dan that can have an effect on Douhuang and similar pills. He needs to quickly upgrade to the top of Douhuang, after all, he has some Breaking Zong pills given to him by Gu Yuan in his hand. After reaching the top of Douhuang, he can try to attack Douzong.
Therefore, these pills can only be cheaper for some elders and members of the Xiao family. In this transaction, those medicines that accelerate the speed of condensing combat energy are really useful to him.
Speaking of which, why doesn't he know a high-level alchemist? It would be great if he could have a friend who is a high-level alchemist like Yao Chen. When the famous Dou Huang, the twelve Dou Wang, and the eighteen Dou Ling help him, he is absolutely willing to help.
