章 5: Chapter 5 Sun And Moon
"Thunk!"
Xiao Ning held a sharp kitchen knife in his hand and chopped off the head of the Gold Scale Dragon fish in one go, splashing blood on the face of the boy opposite.
"Xiao Ning, we stole so many fish, the elder won't beat you, will he?" Xiao Cheng, who was opposite Xiao Ning, asked with a worried look on his face.
Xiao Cheng is the most law abiding child among the children of Xiao Lin's lineage.
Born in such a family, his talent is naturally outstanding, considering his law abiding nature, he could be nominated as a model child for the younger generation.
But it is also because of his nature that his courage and boldness are often slightly worse than others.
"Xiao Cheng, I heard that your grandfather still has a lot of fine wine that he has left over from the last time he went to the outside world for missions." The two were chatting when Xiao Yan's voice came from behind.
Xiao Cheng's face changed, he turned his head stiffly showing a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "Brother Yan, there are some, but I dare not steal them."
"Ah Cheng, how can you be so unconfident in yourself? Just come with me and steal a few jars of wine."
Xiao Yan smiled and encouraged Xiao Cheng, "You have always been taking advantage of everyone else's contribution to the parties we have. Now, it's your turn to contribute!"
"Brother Yan, can you please not force me?" Xiao Cheng was about to cry.
With the strict discipline of his family, he would probably be beaten half to death by his parents if he stole a few bottles of wine from his grandfather.
"Xiao Cheng, you can do it." A voice sounded it came from a chubby little fat boy who was walking over.
The little fat boy's name is Xiao Feng, his cultivation is almost at the bottom of the group, but he is quite the rascal. His grandfather is a Dou Venerate like Xiao Jiande's. If Xiao Yan hadn't suppressed and guided him all these years, Xiao Feng might have been the next Xiao Jiande with his temperament.
"Brother Yan, don't worry about the wine. I'll go steal my grandfather's since Xiao Cheng can't do it." Xiao Feng patted his trembling chest and said confidently.
"Good, it seems that Ah Feng is more capable."
Although Ah Feng wanted to try Xiao Cheng's grandfather's wine more since he heard a lot of good reviews about it, he still praised this junior of his for attempting to contribute.
"Hehe, this is nothing, Brother Yan, when my grandfather dies, I will bring you the best jars of wine that he's got hidden in his secret room for you to try out." Xiao Feng said proudly.
Xiao Yan's smile froze slightly, he suddenly wanted to distance himself from this fatty.
"Xiao Feng, how is your practice of the Dragon Subduing Art going."
A faint voice sounded, Xiao Li's figure appeared in front of Xiao Feng at some point, asking coldly.
"Ah! Teacher Li!" Xiao Feng's face changed. What he feared most was Xiao Li asking about his cultivation.
"You are already sixteen years old and still a nine-star Battle Master. Maybe by the time you die of old age, your grandfather would have given you another uncle." Xiao Li scolded him mercilessly.
Xiao Feng lowered his head and dared not speak. He was terribly afraid of Xiao Li.
"Second brother, it's rare for you to get together with your students today. So why scare them?" Xiao Yan joked.
"Hmm." Xiao Li nodded slightly and said to Xiao Feng: "I'll forgive you this time. If I hear you say such rebellious words next time, I'll make you slap yourself until your teeth fall out!" After that, his figure disappeared from the spot.
"Huh." Xiao Feng took a deep breath and said gratefully: "Brother Yan, thank to you for helping me out, otherwise I would have been scolded to death by Teacher Xiao Li."
"It doesn't matter, you are my younger brother."
Xiao Yan waved his hand, then pondered: "But your strength is indeed a bit poor. When I become a Dou Saint in the future, if you haven't become a Dou Ancestor by then, then don't blame me for not mentioning you. After all, I don't want to lose face because my brothers are weak."
"Well, brother Yan, don't worry." Xiao Feng vowed: "I will definitely practice to the Dou Ancestor level, so that I can outlast grandpa."
Xiao Yan: "."
"Does your grandfather beat you often?"
"No."
"Then do you have any hatred with your grandfather?"
"No."
"Okay, got it." Xiao Yan suddenly didn't know what to say.
After Xiao Feng left, he turned around and patted Xiao Cheng on the shoulder, saying with a smile: "Ah Cheng, I was just joking with you just now. Don't worry about it and don't feel that you owe anyone anything.
As the leader of this team, since I am willing to play with you, then I will not force you to do things that you don't want to do. I won't kick you aside either just because you can't take out any of the good stuff stored at home.
Xiao Feng and the others are still young, and they may not understand the warmth and coldness of human nature. If one day you think they are doing too much, just come find me and I'll solve the problem."
"Brother Yan!" Xiao Cheng's eyes were slightly red.
"Kill the fish well." Xiao Yan smiled meaningfully.
Not everyone is born with an amazing grandfather or father. Most of the teenagers around Xiao Yan have fathers or grandfathers who are only Dou Ancestors.
Even so, they are ahead of most juniors of the Xiao Clan who have no backing at all.
In his previous life, Xiao Yan was born in a small middle-class family with strict family education, just like Xiao Cheng. When he first entered the society, he was like Xiao Cheng was now.
He was afraid of being laughed at by others, full of awe for many things, he sometimes felt inferior to others and even sometimes ingratiated himself with others to please them.
Xiao Cheng reminds him of that dark past and personality which he once had, he knew the road that this would lead one down, where it would make you overly sensitive and cautious, even fragile.
But such a personality and nature is not a complete weakness, this is because alertness and caution itself is a rare feature that many people who die quickly lack.
He also knew that as long as someone with that nature and personality met a suitable person to lead the way for them, after overcoming their introverted nature and feelings of inferiority, they will transform into a truly strong person.
Such a person may not be the first to charge out in a battle, but their calmness and caution is what stands them apart from the rest.
In Xiao Yan's eyes, Xiao Cheng, who has always been mediocre, may be more valuable to cultivate than these second-generations with Dou Venerate grandfathers.
Good and bad are interdependent, light and darkness are intertwined, and an excellent leader should know how to polish the dark side of his subordinates and turn shortcomings into strengths.
As night fell, the milky white sunlight in the sky gradually dimmed, and a black full moon suddenly appeared.
In the small square, more than a dozen bonfires formed a circle. More than a hundred teenagers gathered around it. On the bonfire, the Gold Scale Dragon fish that Xiao Ning and Xiao Cheng had worked hard to clean was baked golden and shiny by the flames, exuding an attractive fragrance.
"Sister, when you went out this time, what did you see? Was the outside world really that exciting?" As a close lackey, Xiao Ning is qualified to sit with Xiao Yan and Xiao Yu, he looked at Xiao Yu curiously as he asked this question.
As beauties, Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei sat directly on both sides of Xiao Yan.
"It's okay, but the world outside is very poor."
Xiao Yu tore off a piece of roasted fish that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and replied while eating: "It is said that the Central Plains is the richest area of our Dou Qi Continent, and that the strongest experts of the Dou Qi Continent are gathered there."
"But the so-called forces such as the One Tower, Two Sects, Three Valleys and Four Square Pavilions that I saw this time didn't seem to be all that.
One or two Dou Venerates can build a pavilion. Except for the Pill Tower, which is a little richer, other forces seem to be worse than our Vein alone."
Xiao Yu curled her lips as she expressed her disdain for those big forces outside.
In the Xiao clan, Veines like theirs that are supported by Dou Saints as their patriarch's are called Royal Veines.
The entire Xiao clan has hundreds of Royal Veines, and above the Royal Veines there are 10 Imperial Veines. It is said that the Master of the Imperial Veines are at least seven-star Dou Saints.
"What about the sun and moon outside." Xiao Mei's little face was also curious.
"Its different from our Xiao World."
Xiao Yu thought for a moment and said, "The sun in the outside world rises from the east and sets in the west. Its color changes with time.
The moon is silvery white, like a big jade plate hanging in the sky, and it changes shape with time."
After hearing this, the group of teenagers looked up at the sky.
The sun in the Xiao World has always been a milky white, it intensity however changes with time.
The moon is black and always maintains the same appearance. It maintains the same brightness all night and its shape has never changed.
Moreover, there is no slow alternation between the sun and the moon. They appear together for a moment at the same time every day before one disappears and the other takes its place.
Of course, they also fight occasionally.
Just like what everyone sees now, the white sun and the black moon began to collide in the sky.
After several collisions, the white sun seemed to be no match for the black moon. After a few flickers, it suddenly disappeared.
Under the cover of night, the black moon looks like a black jade plate, but it strangely releases a cold light, causing a layer of fluorescence to fall down onto the earth below.
