"Senior brother, senior sister?"
Upon hearing Jiang Xuanying's words, Xiao Ming's expression changed slightly.
Because at that moment.
He suddenly felt a burning battle intent, like flames roaring to life around him.
Turning his head.
He saw Feng Xianhuang's face full of excitement, her eyes teasingly looking at him.
"What kind of look is that?"
"Don't tell me you think you'll comprehend this secret technique before me and comfortably have me as your senior sister?"
"What do you think?"
Feng Xianhuang didn't notice anything wrong with Xiao Ming's words, just looked at him with a proud expression.
As a reborn Empress.
In her past life, she had cultivated to the seventh level of the Emperor realm, and her understanding of cultivation and insights far surpassed the Spirit Sea realm.
No matter how talented Xiao Ming was, he couldn't possibly surpass her.
It's like...
A university student being downgraded to first grade, even if faced with an unseen math problem, she could solve it easily with her years of knowledge and experience.
How could she lose to a kindergartener?
Isn't that a joke?
"Haha, you're really confident..."
Seeing Feng Xianhuang like a proud little princess, Xiao Ming could only chuckle dryly.
Although he thought Feng Xianhuang might comprehend it before him, he couldn't admit defeat verbally.
"From your tone, it seems you're unconvinced?"
Feng Xianhuang's lips curled slightly, her eyes provocatively looking at Xiao Ming.
"How about this, let's have a competition."
"This time, if I comprehend the secret technique first, besides being my junior brother, you'll have to cook for me in the future."
You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.
"If I lose, I'll call you senior brother, and whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you!"
Not long ago, she had a bet with Xiao Ming and ended up losing.
But nothing is absolute.
She couldn't lose to Xiao Ming once and then keep losing to him.
This time.
She was confident she could use her advantage to outshine Xiao Ming, to show him she wasn't some small fry!
"Ding! Life Choice System randomly triggered, the host can make the following choices..."
[Choice 1: Admit defeat, give up the bet with Feng Xianhuang, and claim you're not as good as her, and you'll obediently be the junior brother and cook, receive a random technique as a reward.]
[Choice 2: Ignore it, don't bother with this proud Empress, roll your eyes at her and sit down first to comprehend, receive a random spiritual treasure as a reward.]
[Choice 3: Fearless, accept the bet with Feng Xianhuang, and claim she'll be under you from now on, ready to be the junior sister and cook for you, receive a random talent as a reward.]
[Choice 4: Reverse the heavens, slap Feng Xianhuang, make her kneel and beg you before accepting the bet, receive a random divine ability as a reward.]
As the system prompt suddenly appeared, along with the options before him.
Xiao Ming's eyes lit up.
To be honest, this Empress was truly his lucky charm, triggering the system choices again.
He quickly scanned the four options and automatically filtered out the most abstract one.
Slap Feng Xianhuang and make her kneel and beg him?
He's not a superman, the system must be crazy!
As for the first three, they all had their merits.
But as a man, being challenged by a woman like this, admitting defeat or ignoring it would make him seem spineless.
How could a cultivator be without courage, so Xiao Ming made his choice without hesitation.
"System, I choose three!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for making a choice, receiving the reward [Transcendent Insight]."
"The reward has been automatically placed in the system space, ready for extraction once the host completes the choice."
[Transcendent Insight]: When the host focuses on comprehension, their insight will be infinitely amplified, and over time, they will enter a state of enlightenment.
"Is this a temporary cheat?"
After receiving the reward information, Xiao Ming showed a hint of surprise.
He considered his own insight quite good.
Even if not a prodigy, he was still a remarkable talent.
Otherwise.
He wouldn't have become the strongest genius of the Xiao family's younger generation.
Now with this talent, he was fully confident he could surpass anyone, even the reborn Empress.
After all.
Enlightenment was a rare state of comprehension.
It allowed one to merge with the heavens and earth, easily resonating with any technique or law.
In this state.
It wasn't just about comprehending techniques, but fully integrating with them.
As long as one's insight was strong, it was no less than being directly taught.
How could mere comprehension compare to this?
"What? Need to think it over?"
Seeing Xiao Ming hesitate, Feng Xianhuang couldn't help but speak again.
"Is there anything to consider? Since you're so confident, I'll play along."
"Just don't go back on your word if you lose."
Xiao Ming waved his hand, responding nonchalantly.
After speaking, the system prompt in his mind indicated that Transcendent Insight could be extracted.
Without any hesitation.
Xiao Ming chose to extract it, and after a light entered his body, he gained the talent.
"Since you're so confident, let's wait and see!"
Feng Xianhuang couldn't help but sneer, not wanting to waste words with Xiao Ming, she stepped towards the stone tablet.
"By the way, you still owe me a Saint King secret technique, you haven't forgotten, have you?"
Just as Feng Xianhuang took a step, Xiao Ming's voice came from behind, almost causing her to stumble.
"Isn't it just a Saint King secret technique?"
"After this competition, regardless of the result, I'll give it to you!"
"……"
Seeing Feng Xianhuang almost turn into a tigress, Xiao Ming showed a hint of frustration.
Her temper was a bit fiery, fitting for someone who played with fire.
But, considering she was about to become his junior sister, he decided not to argue with this reborn Empress.
As Feng Xianhuang sat cross-legged and began to communicate with the stone tablet, Xiao Ming sat beside her.
Also sitting cross-legged, he communicated with the stone tablet.
As his soul entered.
A chaotic space filled with desolation appeared before him, the sky devoid of sun and moon, the earth devoid of life.
Only ancient characters, exuding a terrifying desolate aura, floated in the air.
Great Wilderness Refining God Technique!
Seeing these five words, Xiao Ming began to focus, and Transcendent Insight activated.
His already extraordinary insight began to multiply crazily.
In just a few breaths, it exceeded ten times the usual.
With a roar, Xiao Ming successfully entered a state of enlightenment, his mind elevated, merging with the heavens and earth.
The desolate intent contained within the stone tablet, and the desolate aura of the world, resonated with him.
In this transformation.
The ancient characters seen by his soul began to evolve into more cultivation scriptures.
Such a commotion.
Made Feng Xianhuang open her eyes, and Jiang Xuanying almost spat out her spirit wine.
