Chapter 42: Senior Sister Nalan’s Shock

Chapter 42: Senior Sister Nalan's Shock

The following morning,

"This is Senior Sister Nalan's residence up ahead."

"Thank you, Senior Brother."

Xiao Yi Xian sincerely spoke to a male disciple of the Yunlan Sect, dressed in disciples' attire.

The young man smiled and waved his hand, then left.

After the young man departed, Xiao Yi Xian looked at a quiet courtyard not far away, her curiosity evident.

"Senior Sister Nalan, does she live here?"

A smile played on her lips as Xiao Yi Xian slowly made her way towards the courtyard.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

As Xiao Yi Xian approached the courtyard, she heard the sound of martial arts practice.

Standing at the courtyard gate, Xiao Yi Xian gazed in the direction of the sounds.

Soon, she spotted a young woman dressed in white martial attire, wielding a long sword, practicing her swordplay in the courtyard.

"Senior Sister Nalan!"

Upon seeing the white-clad young woman, Xiao Yi Xian's eyes grew slightly cold, and she couldn't help but call out.

Hearing Xiao Yi Xian's voice, the white-clad young woman immediately stopped her movements and looked towards Xiao Yi Xian.

"Junior Sister, you've finally come."

Seeing that the newcomer was Xiao Yi Xian, Senior Sister Nalan's charming face brightened, and she quickly ran over to open the courtyard gate.

Since their first meeting, Senior Sister Nalan had taken the initiative to visit Xiao Yi Xian's residence in Gu He, and now the two of them were quite familiar with each other.

"Come in and have a seat."

After opening the courtyard gate, Senior Sister Nalan warmly pulled Xiao Yi Xian into the middle of the courtyard where there was a pavilion to sit.

"Senior Sister Nalan, I was in a critical breakthrough period these past few days and couldn't spare the time to visit you. I'm truly sorry."

After they both sat down, Xiao Yi Xian expressed her apologies.

In the previous two visits Senior Sister Nalan had made to Xiao Yi Xian, she had not yet successfully condensed the Poison Pill within her body, and the danger posed by the Woeful Poison Body had not been resolved.

She was afraid of causing harm to Senior Sister Nalan, so she had declined Senior Sister Nalan's invitations both times.

"It's okay, breaking through is more important, Junior Sister."

Senior Sister Nalan's face was smiling, and she said nonchalantly, "If Junior Sister feels guilty, you can come to visit me more often in the future."

Ever since she had obtained the list of materials for refining the Emperor's Soul Pill from Gu He, Yun Yun had frequently gone out, leaving Senior Sister Nalan, who practiced alone every day, feeling somewhat bored.

In her idle moments, she thought of Gu He's request from that day, so she couldn't resist the loneliness and went to Gu he's residence twice to find Xiao Yi Xian.

Now that she saw Xiao Yi Xian coming to accompany her, she naturally felt very happy.

"Great, as long as Senior Sister Nalan doesn't get tired of it, I will come to visit you often."

Xiao Yi Xian responded without hesitation, her face showing a smile.

As a newcomer to the Yunlan Sect, Xiao Yi Xian hardly knew anyone, so she was happy to make friends with Senior Sister Nalan.

"Sister, I'm happy that you can come to accompany me. How could I ever get tired of it?" Nalan Yanran smiled.

Both of them were young girls of similar ages, so they naturally had many common topics.

Soon, the two of them sat in the pavilion, chatting away.

Time passed quickly, and without realizing it, they had been chatting in the pavilion for a full two hours.

"Oh, we've been chatting for so long, Junior Sister. Let's take a break from talking, and I'll teach you some martial arts."

At this moment, Nalan Yanran looked at the sky and then pulled Xiao Yi Xian to an open area in the courtyard.

"Junior Sister, do you know any combat techniques?"

At this point, Nalan Yanran suddenly thought of something and looked at Xiao Yi Xian.

If the other party didn't even know any combat techniques, it would be difficult to teach her.

After all, the best way to practice martial arts was to spar with another person, which would help one progress faster.

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian felt lucky. Fortunately, her teacher had taught her the Yellow-Rank Advanced Combat Technique, the Ripple Palm, just yesterday; otherwise, she would have been embarrassed.

"Sister, I only know one Yellow-Rank Advanced Combat Technique, the Ripple Palm," Xiao Yi Xian replied.

"It's okay, as long as you know one combat technique."

With a slight smile, Nalan Yanran said, "Since you only know palm techniques, let's start with palm techniques, and I'll teach you how to defend first."

After saying that, Nalan Yanran looked confident as she said to Xiao Yi Xian, "Junior Sister, now use the Ripple Palm with all your strength and attack me. I'll teach you how to defend."

"This... "

"Sister, do you really want me to use my full strength?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian hesitated for a moment. During their conversation earlier, Nalan Yanran had mentioned that her cultivation was at the Four-Star Dou Zong level. Xiao Yi Xian, on the other hand, was a Nine-Star Dou Zong. Could Sister Nalan really withstand her full power?

"Of course!"

Seeing Xiao Yi Xian's hesitation, Nalan Yanran affirmed, "Only by using your full strength can I gauge your abilities properly."

"This way, I can provide you with better guidance."

Nalan Yanran insisted, "Junior Sister, don't worry, and don't underestimate your senior sister. Among the younger generation of Yunlan Sect, no one has been able to injure me yet."

"Alright then, Sister, be careful."

Seeing Nalan Yanran's confidence, Xiao Yi Xian felt a bit reassured. However, to be safe, she decided to use only four layers of her strength.

"Junior Sister, I'm ready. Just come at me." Nalan Yanran's face lit up with excitement.

In the past, she had always practiced alone, so having a sp

arring partner today made her feel curious and excited.

"Ripple Palm!"

Xiao Yi Xian nodded, gathered her Dou Qi in her palm, accelerated her steps, and unleashed a fierce palm strike directly towards Nalan Yanran.

"Junior Sister, impressive palm technique!"

Watching the formidable force emanating from Xiao Yi Xian's palm, Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes sparkled.

"Xiao Yi Xian's palm technique is quite good, isn't it?"

Subsequently, Nalan Yanran, wearing a confident expression, looked at Xiao Yi Xian's swiftly approaching palm imprint. She calmly raised her own palm, and her inner Dou Qi surged. Then, she forcefully struck out, meeting Xiao Yi Xian's palm imprint head-on.

However, the moment the two palm imprints collided, Nalan Yanran's face changed drastically.

She sensed an unexpected and tremendous force coming from Xiao Yi Xian's seemingly gentle palm.

In the next moment, Nalan Yanran's figure was sent flying back as if struck by a heavy hammer. She staggered several steps before finally managing to stabilize herself, looking somewhat dishevelled.

"Ah... Senior Sister Nalan, are you okay?"

Seeing Nalan Yanran pushed back so far by her own palm strike, Xiao Yi Xian panicked, quickly rushing forward to assist Nalan Yanran.

At this moment, Nalan Yanran couldn't care less about feeling a bit breathless. She gazed at Xiao Yi Xian in shock and asked, "Junior Sister, your cultivation?"

Facing Nalan Yanran's incredulous gaze, Xiao Yi Xian felt a bit guilty. After hesitating for a moment, she whispered, "Senior Sister Nalan, a few days ago, I just broke through to the Six-Star Dou Practitioner level."

Xiao Yi Xian was afraid of exposing her identity as a possessor of the Woeful Poison Body, so she decided to conceal her true cultivation level for now.

Hearing Xiao Yi Xian's soft voice, Nalan Yanran's eyes became somewhat vacant.
