After storing the Black Thunderstone into his storage ring, Mo Yu had no further interest in exploring the Dou Qi Pavilion. He turned around and walked out.
As he approached the thick doors, a group of over a dozen guards with stern expressions firmly blocked the exit. In one corner near the door, an old man sat expressionlessly in a chair, holding a thick book and a pen.
In front of the old man, a line of clan members was queued up, each pulling out the dou qi techniques they had found, allowing the old man to register them. Only after the registration, under the cold gazes of the guards, were they able to squeeze through the small gap in the doorway and exit.
This was the process for leaving the Dou Qi Pavilion, meant to prevent the techniques from leaking to outsiders.
Though these techniques were worthless in Mo Yu's eyes, in Wu Tan City, they were highly coveted by many.
After waiting for a moment at the back of the line, it was finally Mo Yu's turn. He stepped forward, pulling out the technique scroll from his chest and handed it to the old man.
The old man took the silver-white scroll from Mo Yu's hands and paused, eyeing him with a hint of admiration.
After registering the technique, the old man handed it back to Mo Yu, curiously observing him. "So you're the rising genius of the Xiao family, huh? Not bad, not bad. The patriarch didn't make a mistake in choosing you.
"This Roaring Thunder Technique is the highest-level thunder technique in the family. As long as you train diligently, your future achievements are limitless."
Mo Yu nodded casually, stowing the technique away. Just as he was about to leave, his gaze caught sight of two familiar figures—a black and a green silhouette sticking close together.
It was none other than Xiao Yan and Xun'er.
Seeing this, Mo Yu stopped and leaned casually against the door, waiting for the two to finish their registration.
Xiao Yan and Xun'er noticed Mo Yu's gesture and smiled, quickening their pace.
In no time, the two completed their registration as well.
"Cousin Mo Yu, you seem to be in a good mood. Did you find a suitable technique in the family collection?" Xun'er asked with her usual gentle tone, mistaking Mo Yu's slight smile for having obtained a high-grade technique.
"If you don't mind, cousin, I have quite a few decent techniques as well. I could give you a Xuan-Class advanced thunder technique," she offered kindly.
Xiao Yan, standing to the side, didn't show any signs of jealousy. He knew everything Xun'er did was ultimately for him.
Mo Yu had been a constant source of support for Xiao Yan during his three years of struggle, and Xun'er felt equally indebted to him.
Xiao Yan had no doubt about Xun'er's offer. Just earlier, she had tried to give him a Xuan-Class advanced fire technique, which he had declined.
Hearing Xun'er's words, Mo Yu was briefly taken aback. Realizing his joy over finding the Black Thunderstone had been misunderstood, he chuckled softly.
"I was just reminded of something that made me happy. You misunderstood, Xun'er. I don't need a Xuan-Class advanced technique at the moment, but thank you for the offer. Just for that, Xun'er, you can rest assured. I'll make sure Xiao Yan doesn't go around flirting with other women."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yu absentmindedly rubbed his chin, his mind wandering.
Aside from Xun'er, there were Ya Fei, Xiao Yixia (Little Fairy Doctor), Queen Medusa (Cai Lin), Yun Yun, Qing Lin... Xiao Yan would attract plenty of women in the future. Keeping an eye on him might not be so easy...
Was he supposed to intercept them all? No way, Mo Yu wasn't that kind of person—definitely not.
Xun'er and Xiao Yan exchanged glances at Mo Yu's playful words, both shaking their heads with a smile.
Xun'er had absolute faith in Xiao Yan, knowing he wasn't the type to be easily swayed by temptation.
As for Xiao Yan, his focus was entirely on cultivation, leaving him little time for matters of romance.
However, Mo Yu's earlier refusal did catch them both by surprise.
To reject a Xuan-Class advanced technique so casually—could it be that Mo Yu was cultivating a Di-Class technique?
A Di-Class technique was almost impossible to find in the entire Jia Ma Empire. Such a technique was essentially a ticket to becoming a powerful figure, a treasure that could elevate an entire family!
If Mo Yu truly possessed a Di-Class technique, as long as he didn't fall prematurely, becoming a Dou Huang was only a matter of time!
As for the thought of a Tian-Class technique, neither of them even considered it. Even in the ancient clans, fewer than a handful could cultivate a Tian-Class technique.
Not even Yao Lao, the elder inside Xiao Yan, could provide a Tian-Class technique…
Mo Yu seemed to notice the shock in their eyes but didn't pay it much mind. Waving his hand, he smiled, "Let's go. It's time to head back."
As they exited the crowded pavilion, Mo Yu took a deep breath of fresh air, satisfied with his gains from this trip.
"How was it, Yan'er, Xiao Yu?"
As soon as the three stepped outside, a figure slowly approached. His eyes glanced at the doors of the pavilion, but his voice was directed at them, smiling as he asked.
Turning his head, Xiao Yan looked at the smiling Xiao Zhan. He nodded, pulling out a dark red scroll from his sleeve.
Seeing the dark red scroll, Xiao Zhan finally breathed a sigh of relief before turning his expectant gaze towards Mo Yu.
Following suit, Mo Yu, like Xiao Yan, revealed a glimpse of a silver-white scroll from his sleeve.
Upon seeing that both Xiao Yan and Mo Yu had obtained the strongest techniques from the family, the usually stern Xiao Zhan couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
Placing a large hand on their shoulders, he chuckled, "Now that you've obtained the techniques, Xiao Yu, you've already broken through to a Dou Zhe, so you can start cultivating. As for you, Yan'er, don't be in a hurry. Once you reach the Dou Zhe stage, you'll be able to truly cultivate dou qi."
Mo Yu and Xiao Yan exchanged knowing looks, both smiling wryly.
Xiao Yan was well aware that Mo Yu's cultivation technique was likely beyond Di-Class; otherwise, there was no way he would have casually turned down Xun'er's offer.
And Mo Yu knew the path Xiao Yan would walk, undoubtedly choosing the mysterious Flame Mantra in the future.
Thus, neither of them could truly benefit from Xiao Zhan's good intentions.
Before leaving, Xiao Zhan turned to Mo Yu again, his eyes flashing with an unreadable expression before he added, "By the way, Xiao Yu, there's a family gathering tonight. Make sure you attend."
Sensing Xiao Zhan's serious tone, Mo Yu had an uneasy feeling but still nodded, "Alright, Uncle. I'll be there on time."
