Chapter 9: Shock,Xiao Yu
Xiao Yuan, satisfied with his recent rewards, cast a glance at Xun'er, who lay seemingly unconscious nearby. With a quiet sense of purpose, he stepped out into the warm afternoon light, eager to examine his newfound strength after awakening his bloodline. In a calm, composed voice, he murmured, "System, allocate 500 Constitution Points to my Bloodline and display my status."
As he spoke, a system panel materialized in front of him, detailing his progress:

As he absorbed this information, Xiao Yuan's eyes sharpened with contemplation. His progress was promising, yet the Relationship Panel reminded him that even with a Dual-Cultivation Technique, he couldn't proceed without the legendary Yin-Yang Twin Flame—a rare treasure necessary to truly activate the technique's power. He understood he was still far from obtaining such an item, but a sense of resolve stirred within him. Someday, he vowed, he would pursue it. "Now, I should go to Xiao Yu," he murmured to himself, mentally forming his next steps.
Meanwhile, back inside, Xun'er stirred from her apparent slumber. Unknown to Xiao Yuan, she had been awake all along, and a playful glint sparkled in her eyes. With a soft, convincing sigh, she pretended to awaken.
"Uncle Ling, come out," she called, her voice soft yet firm.
In an instant, a dark, shadowy figure appeared by her side. Cloaked in secrecy, Ling Ying bowed respectfully, his presence tense yet deferential. "Yes, Miss. What are your orders?" he replied, his voice low and reverent.
Without hesitation, Xun'er inquired, "Is there any possible way for someone in the Xiao Clan to restore their lost bloodline?" Her gaze was searching, her curiosity sharpened by recent revelations.
Ling Ying hesitated at her question, clearly taken aback. "No, Miss. It is virtually impossible unless someone in the Xiao Clan reaches the legendary rank of Dou Di," he explained, a note of surprise edging into his tone.
Xun'er's expression grew more thoughtful. "Then… how did Xiao Yuan manage to unlock his bloodline?" she pressed.
At her words, Ling Ying stiffened, his eyes widening in shock. "What! Young Master Xiao Yuan has regained his bloodline?" he exclaimed, barely able to contain his astonishment.
Xun'er nodded, her expression calm but with a spark in her eyes. Ling Ying, standing nearby, was clearly taken aback. He'd served the Gu Clan for years, seen plenty of talented people come and go, but this… the contemplation of Xiao Yuan reaching the legendary rank of Dou Di was blowing his mind.
"How… how is that even possible?" Ling Ying finally asked, still in shock. He'd already grown to respect Xiao Yuan over the months, especially after seeing how determined he was. But Dou Di? That was a level most people thought of as pure legend.
Xun'er met his eyes with a gentle smile, pride glimmering just a bit in her expression. "Uncle Ling , you've watched Xiao Yuan for a while now, seen how he grows in ways that just don't make sense. Haven't you felt that he's always been… different?" she asked softly.
"Yes,Miss"
.....
Standing outside Xiao Yu's residence, he exchanged warm greetings with her parents, inquiring about their daughter. They informed him that Xiao Yu had ventured into a nearby forest a few days ago and had yet to return. His heart raced with a mix of concern and urgency. "Uncle, Auntie, I have some other commitments to attend to, so I must take my leave now," he said, trying to mask his unease with a polite smile. With a quick nod from her parents, he turned and began walking, a sense of desperation driving him forward.
As he made his way down the familiar path, thoughts swirled in his mind. Why had Xiao Yu gone into the forest alone? He couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. The days of her absence weighed heavily on him, igniting a strange determination he couldn't fully understand. He was puzzled by his own emotions; the bond they shared felt stronger than friendship, yet he had never acknowledged it. Now, the thought of her alone in the woods gnawed at him, fueling his urgency. He quickened his pace, determination lighting his way as he ventured deeper into the forest, hoping to find her safe and sound.
[A/N:It is love bro]
After a long time, he finally found Xiao Yu by a rock. He approached her and said softly, "Cousin Xiao Yu, you shouldn't wander this deep into the forest."
She looked up at him, surprised to see Xiao Yuan. "It's not that deep," she replied.
"Now, tell your cousin why you're feeling sad. Did I do something wrong?" he asked.
"I'm feeling down because I like you, but you kissed Xun'er, you pervert," she shot back. While she didn't fully show her typical domineering attitude, she still called him a pervert.
"Hmmm, you're not acting like your usual self, are you?" he said, surprised to hear that she liked him and recalling the kiss he shared that day. "I'm not," she admitted, contemplating the idea of sharing Xiao Yuan during her moment of despair. "Well, if you like me, then you'll have to share me," he replied, slipping back into his usual casual demeanor.
