Chapter 117 He and his Xi'er were indeed destined for each other.
Seeing that Xi'er was sleeping soundly in the morning, Bo Yiyan went out to the street to buy medicinal herbs.
In addition to formulating information interference agents, he also plans to formulate a universal highly toxic agent, since no one knows what even more terrifying races might appear in the future.
He was mindful of potential dangers even in times of peace, and he didn't want to be powerless to fight back when foreign invaders attacked.
After all, it's impossible for his current cultivation level to suddenly reach the top combat power of the Cloud Abyss Upper Realm, so he can only play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, and make the most of his advantages as a pharmacist.
When he returned from shopping, he saw Xi'er and Yetanji sitting face to face eating hot pot.
The most problematic thing is that the atmosphere between them is strangely harmonious, which is clearly not how someone of Ye Tanji's status should behave with a junior.
He barely managed to control his emotions as he walked in and laughed, "You little rascal, Xi'er, you actually sneaked out to eat hot pot behind Uncle Bo's back!"
"It wasn't intentional! It's just that the Palace Master of Night Pool has never tried it before, so I wanted to invite him to try it."
"Now that you're back, let's eat together!" Xi'er smiled and took out another set of bowls and chopsticks, handing them to him.
Watching Bo Yiyan prepare his own dipping sauce, Ye Tanji felt inexplicably happy: Xi'er is so considerate of him, she didn't even prepare dipping sauce for her Uncle Bo.
The three chatted as they ate, and Bo Yiyan casually said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, but Xi'er has been spoiled by her family since she was a child."
I used to talk about her future with her parents and other elders in private.
Everyone felt that a girl like her was not suitable for marrying out of the family in the future, and that it would be best for her to find a caring man to marry into the family so that she would not suffer any grievances.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, Your Highness. You're so approachable. I accidentally started rambling on about all the little things at home. I'm afraid you're getting impatient listening to me, aren't you?"
Ye Tanji remained calm and smiled, "It's alright! Xi'er told me before that hot pot is mainly about the atmosphere."
Eating and chatting together helps relax the mind and body, leading to a more pleasant experience.
"Since I'm sitting here eating hotpot, I'm happy to listen to whatever you two want to talk about."
Xi'er glared at Bo Yiyan and said, "Uncle Bo, you're so busy all day long, how do you still have time to talk about my shortcomings?"
Hmph! Let me tell you, I don't want to get married! I've spent my whole life admiring beautiful women.
If I were to marry a man as jealous as my father, like my mother, would I still be able to look at beautiful women whenever I wanted?
Bo Yiyan practically wanted to clap his hands up, especially for his precious Xi'er. What he said was just too awesome!
He looked at Ye Tanji with a gloating expression.
Sure enough, his face instantly stiffened, and he could no longer maintain his calm and composed expression.
Ye Tanji clenched his fists tightly, furious inside, but he had no right to vent his anger and could only grit his teeth and bear it.
Don't be angry! His Xi'er is only a seventeen-year-old child. She doesn't understand anything yet and has no idea how to love someone wholeheartedly.
He will have plenty of opportunities in the future to gradually draw her into his love, and by then, she will only have him in her heart and eyes.
She would love him to death and would never see the existence of other men again.
Even if she prefers beautiful women, he is still her best choice, as he is quite confident in his appearance.
However, he is much older than Xi'er, so taking care of his skin and working out his abs should be on his agenda.
Ye Tanji had mixed feelings about the hotpot meal, especially after Bo Yiyan returned, he felt that this person was really too much of an eyesore.
However, it's actually a good thing that Xi'er has such a protective elder by her side.
He would prevent him from getting close to Xi'er, and he would also prevent other men from getting close to Xi'er.
Therefore, for the time being, he will stay by Xi'er's side, and we will not look for an opportunity to lure him away.
To keep Xi'er from bothering with her new neighbors, Bo Yiyan specially bought several high-level combat skills and urged her to practice them diligently.
Although Xi'er wasn't very diligent, remembering the devastation the Zerg had caused to Shuowang City, she decided to seriously cultivate these advanced combat techniques.
After all, she couldn't be so lucky every time to have a peerless master like Ye Tanji by her side.
She needs to become stronger on her own so that she won't be unilaterally defeated when she encounters a powerful enemy in the future.
On the third day after Xi'er moved into the twin towers, she went to report to Ye Tanji early in the morning:
"Master, Miss Bai Xi across the way has been practicing combat skills early this morning."
"From what I can see, she seems to be practicing the three forms of the Sky-Splitting Slash that you casually created before, Master."
This set of combat techniques was indeed created by Ye Tanji a hundred years ago.
He had no intention of keeping his combat skills a secret, and casually showed them to his subordinates at Night Pool Palace.
Unfortunately, this combat technique is quite difficult, and most people cannot learn it. Later, he simply released it and put it on the black market for sale.
He hoped that someone destined to receive it would be able to learn how to use it, so that it wouldn't just sit there gathering dust.
Unexpectedly, it was Xi'er who got it.
Ye Tanji was overjoyed: it seemed that he and Xi'er were indeed destined to be together.
He walked onto the veranda and looked across the hot spring pool at the training ground downstairs on the opposite side.
Then I saw Xi'er holding a yellowed booklet, looking at it and gesturing with her hands.
She looked so serious. Sure enough, his Xi'er is very focused and cute no matter what she does.
Moreover, even though she was self-taught and had no elders to guide her, her gestures didn't seem to be wrong at all.
However, in order to find an opportunity to be alone with her, he flew directly to Xi'er.
Bo Yiyan had been keeping a close eye on the movements on the other side and sensed his arrival immediately.
Bo Yiyan felt very aggrieved. He had clearly set up a high-level defensive formation, but the stinky man on the other side could walk in so easily.
He wanted to curse, but he couldn't bring himself to do it, because he was the most powerful person in this world.
If things really come to a head, and the other party tries to force him, there's nothing he can do.
Although he couldn't be stopped, Bo Yiyan wouldn't give him a chance to be alone with Xi'er. The moment he sensed Bo Yiyan entering his courtyard, he put down his research and went to the training ground.
When Xi'er saw Ye Tanji suddenly appear in front of her, she greeted him with a smile: "Senior, what brings you here?"
“I noticed that there are some details that are not quite right in your practice of the Sky-Splitting Slash, so I came to help you correct them. Otherwise, it will be difficult to correct them once you have mastered them,” Ye Tanji said seriously.
"Ah? So I practiced it wrong? No wonder, I always felt something was wrong. Luckily you know a lot, please don't hesitate to teach me!" Xi'er said.
When Bo Yiyan arrived, he overheard this conversation. He was even angrier and couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal, since Ye Tanji was the absolute authority in cultivation.
Xi'er saw him and casually asked, "Uncle Bo, aren't you busy preparing poisons? How come you have time to come and watch me practice my combat skills?"
"I'm tired, so I came here to clear my head. Maybe there will be some new developments later," Bo Yiyan replied with a smile, but his fist was hard. He couldn't find a target to smash into, which was really frustrating!
