What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility! (BTTH)

Chapter 6: Etheral Woman

Everyone, thats enough, training ends here for today, now go back and take a rest.

In the evening, Xiao Yan dismissed the Xiao Clans younger generation who trained together with him and bid farewell to everyone one by one, and soon, only a few people were left in the spacious training ground.

Cousin Xiao Yan! Lets go back too!

Xiao Mei jumped excitedly onto Xiao Yans back, but he gently loosened her arms around his neck and smiled at her.

You guys go first, Ill take a walk in the back of the mountain alone.

Huh? Why

Xiao Meis question was not finished yet when Xiao Xuner reached out and held her back, smiling at Xiao Yan.

Take care, Big brother Xiao Yan.

You too

Xiao Yan nodded lightly and slowly left the training ground.

Watching his lonely figure who left the training ground, Xiao Xuners eyes revealed a hint of heartache.

Xiao Mei was always a carefree kid and did not notice anything unusual about her cousin, but Xiao Xuner could see clearly the deep bitterness contained in Xiao Yans smile just now.

Admittedly, no one in the Xiao Clan had ever underestimated Xiao Yan, and he had always had a high position among them.

However, the more this was the case, the more uncomfortable Xiao Yan felt in his heart.

The better the Xiao Clan treated him, the more useless he felt.

As a waste, how could he be trusted by so many people?

In the dim moonlight, Xiao Yan came to an empty space in the back mountain of the Xiao Clan.

If someone were to observe carefully, they will find scattered pieces of shattered stones around this empty space.

This is Xiao Yans personal training ground.

But today, Xiao Yan is not here to train.

He just found a relatively intact large rock to lie on, feeling the hard and cold surface of the rock, and quietly looking at the crescent moon with a dazed look on his face.

His eyes reveal infinite sadness, and he cant help but recall the past.

He doesnt know why, but Xiao Yan has always despised the law of the strong preying on the weak in this world since as far as he could remember.

For some reason, everyone tacitly accepts this unspoken rule, and everyone believes that this rule is absolutely correct.

This made Xiao Yan feel very distraught and disgusted.

Can strength really override everything? Do the weak really deserve to die not because they did something wrong, but just because?

But at the same time, Xiao Yan was also very clear about one single thing.

This world is just like this.

The concept of the strong preying on the weak is deeply ingrained in everyones hearts and cannot be changed by just saying it.

Therefore, Xiao Yan worked hard to cultivate and became a talented genius praised by others with his talent and extraordinary efforts.

At the same time, Xiao Yan never forgot the other members of his family. No matter how poor their talent was, he did not give up and encouraged them to work hard and not give up on themselves, letting them understand that being strong is not everything.

Being kind to others and strict with oneself is the fundamental way for Xiao Yan to gain recognition from all members of the Xiao Clan.

During this period, Xiao Yan also spread the concept of abandoning the idea of the strong preying on the weak with the prestige brought by being the most outstanding member of the Xiao Clan.

Its ironic Clearly, he hated the idea of the strong preying on the weak, but in order to promote this idea, he had to follow the law of the strong preying on the weak.

In this world, if you have no strength, you would have no right to speak.

Finally, after years of Xiao Yans hard work, the worldview of all members of the Xiao Clan, including the three elders, was successfully changed, and Xiao Yan became the backbone of the Xiao Clan members.

However, the heavens seem to dislike Xiao Yans rebellious worldview, it dislikes his desire to change the rules of the entire continent, and let him lose all his Dou Qi three years ago, becoming the waste he is today.

After Xiao Yan became a waste, the worldview of the Xiao Clan members did not revert back to the law of the strong preying on the weak, but rather followed the principles that Xiao Yan had taught them.

This made Xiao Yan feel extremely gratified in his heart, he felt relieved at the fact that his previous efforts were not in vain.

However, after that, Xiao Yan never talked about his ideas to anyone again.

He believed that should a loser like the current him say such a thing, they would only make people feel disgusted.

Its fortunate enough that every Xiao Clan member still recognizes his previous beliefs despite his current state, Xiao Yan was deeply moved. How could he ask for more?

Looking at the starry sky, a tear slid down Xiao Yans cheek.

He did not want only the Xiao Clan to abandon the survival of the fittest mindset.

He dreamed of the righteous path that he believed in being recognized by everyone on this continent, and that had always been his dream.

But pursuing a dream required a qualification to pursue it in the first place.

And right now, Xiao Yan did not possess that qualification.

The words of a weak person, no matter how reasonable they were, in the end, were meaningless. The words of a strong person, even if they are full of nonsense, would still be considered as the truth!

Oi, kid, are you unwilling to live on like this?

?!

The sudden voice startled Xiao Yan, who immediately stood up on the boulder with an alarmed depression on his face, furrowing his brow as he scanned the dark forest.

He had never heard that voice before, so it couldnt be someone from the Xiao Clan.

But this is the back mountain of the Xiao Clan.

Who is it?!

Oho? You werent scared of me? To be honest, thats a bit of a disappointment.

The voice rang out again, and a deep fear gripped Xiao Yans heart.

A fear that came from his soul!

This was something Xiao Yan had never experienced before, even the power of Elder Ge Ye who came from the Yun Lan Sect couldnt reach this level!

The owner of this voice was definitely an unfathomable powerhouse!

Realizing this, Xiao Yan breathed a deep sigh of relief.

He clasped his hands and bowed to the empty space in front of him.

THe name of this junior is Xiao Yan, I sincerely greet seniors

Oh? Seeing Xiao Yans reaction, the voice expressed some surprise, To think you would be able to stabilize your mind so quickly. It seems you are not an ordinary kid after all.

In the face of this questioning voice, Xiao Yan replied calmly.

Although my strength is weak, I believe that my intuition is sharp. From your voice alone, I can tell that senior is someone whose power is unmatched not only in the Xiao Clan, but in the entire Wutan City. It is meaningless for me to panic in the face of such a person. Instead, Its better for me to ask senior intention directly with a determined heart.

Hahaha! Good! No wonder you are respected by everyone in the Xiao Clan. Even many famous and powerful people cant match your mental fortitude. The voice laughed loudly, I was originally planning to test your mental fortitude, but it seems that its unneeded.

Then a white light flashed in front of Xiao Yan, making it impossible for him to open his eyes.

When his vision cleared, a semi-transparent figure appeared in front of him. A woman with an extraordinary aura was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, reclining and looking at the shocked Xiao Yan.

She was a woman with silver hair, ruby-like eyes, and a wild and carefree smile on her face.

Nice to meet you, Xiao Yan~ said the woman, looking at the stunned Xiao Yan.
