Illicit Relationship

Chapter 928 - The Ruler

Chapter 928 - The Ruler


Lan Ruoxi did not answer Xiao Tian"s question instantly and only stared at him.


"Hmm? Should I tell the truth or not?"


Lan Ruoxi wavered whether she should tell the truth or not.


"Why didn"t you answer my question, lady Lan? Come on, tell me. Don"t hide anything from me." previously, Xiao Tian forgot to ask the reason why Lian Xun decided to keep making a sword for him.


He did not have a good relations.h.i.+p with Lian Xun, and they even had an argument before he traveled to Beijing.


That was why Xiao Tian wanted to know the reason why Lian Xun still decided to continue making a sword for him.


"Hmm.." Lan Ruoxi touched her chin. "Do you really want to know the reason?"


"Yes." Xiao Tian replied.


When Lan Ruoxi saw Xiao Tian"s curious face, a desire to tease him suddenly emerged within her.


"The answer is….secret." Lan Ruoxi responded as she winked her left eye.


The corner of Xiao Tian"s lips twitched.


"This lady is teasing me again! Just you wait. I will punish you when we are alone later."


At first, Xiao Tian wanted to punish Lan Ruoxi immediately, but he changed his mind because Zhao Sheng was with them.


"Hahaha." Zhao Sheng laughed happily when Lan Ruoxi teased Xiao Tian.


-----


The warm rays of the morning sun shone on the earth.


The sound of trees swaying echoed in the front yard of a small house.


A gorgeous young lady was sitting on the ground with a body full of sweat.


Her beautiful purple eyes were locked into the sky as if she was mesmerized by the beautiful sky.


An old woman suddenly walked towards the young woman before sitting next to her. "Crystal, let"s stop here for today. You can continue practicing martial arts again tomorrow."


Crystal s.h.i.+fted her gaze from the sky to her master, "Master, do you know a technique that can increase speed, reflexes, and strength instantly?"


At this moment, Crystal remembered the time when Xiao Tian defeated Qing Xiulan"s bodyguards easily.


"A technique that can increase speed, reflexes and strength?" Yu s.h.i.+ was startled by Crystal"s question. "There is no such a thing like that. Why are you asking a question like this?"


"When we were in Beijing, Xiao Tian could defeat Qing Xiulan"s bodyguards easily." Crystal explained the reason why she suddenly asked that question. "That time, his speed, reflexes and strength suddenly increased significantly. But when I asked him this question, he gave me no answer, saying it could put him in danger if anyone knew about it."


Crystal then continued, "He said he would only tell me the answer after he was strong enough to protect himself and the people he cared about. Why did he have to wait until he was strong enough before he could tell me the answer? Isn"t this weird? I even started to think that he didn"t want to tell me the answer."


Yu s.h.i.+ touched her chin and began to think about it.


"His speed, reflexes and strength suddenly increased significantly and he could not give the answer before he was strong enough to defend himself?!"


Yu s.h.i.+ was sure there was no technique that could increase speed, reflexes and strength instantly. They could only get it by training hard every day.


After all, they lived in a real-world, not fantasy world like in the movies.


Crystal looked at her master and asked again, "Do you know the answer, master?"


"I"m sure there is no technique that can increase speed, reflexes and strength ins-" Yu s.h.i.+ stopped her words halfway before widening her eyes.


"Don"t tell me…."


She suddenly remembered something.


Battle Instinct!


"But isn"t he only a martial artist at the mid-level master stage, so how can he gai-"


Yu s.h.i.+"s suddenly felt gooseb.u.mps, and her hands suddenly trembled.


"The Ruler! Don"t tell me. He is a candidate to be the Ruler!"


Yu s.h.i.+ instantly asked, "When his speed, reflexes and strength suddenly increased drastically, did you feel something different about him?"


"He looked so scary and my instincts told me to run away from him or else, I would regret it." Crystal still had not gained insight about battle instinct, so she could not feel the cold aura around Xiao Tian"s body.


"Then, is he like run out of breath?" Yu s.h.i.+ asked again.


"Yes." Crystal replied as she nodded her head. "Do you know anything about it?"


Even though Xiao Tian only used battle instinct for four seconds, it still took a lot of his stamina. She was a martial artist, so she knew that Xiao Tian was a little out of breath when she was near them.


"It seems like my guess is right. He has gained insight about battle instinct." Yu s.h.i.+ mused.


Because Yu s.h.i.+ was saying in a shallow voice, Crystal could not hear it clearly. "Hmm? What is it, master?"


"Battle instinct." Yu s.h.i.+ gave an honest.


"Battle instinct?" Crystal was startled after hearing Yu s.h.i.+"s words.


Of course, she knew what Battle Instinct was because Yu s.h.i.+ had explained it to her before.


"But didn"t you say that martial artists would only have a chance to gain insight about battle instincts when they broke through to the grandmaster stage?" Crystal remembered that Yu s.h.i.+ said something like this in the past.


"Yes. Most martial artists will only have a chance to gain insight about battle instinct when they break through to grandmaster stage but there is an exception to people who are loved by heaven." Yu s.h.i.+ explained. "These people are destined to stand at the top and one of them will become the Ruler."


"The Ruler? What is it?" Crystal did not get Yu s.h.i.+"s words.


"The Ruler is a stage above grandmaster stage and there is only one Ruler in each generation." Yu s.h.i.+ replied. "That"s why people call them people who are loved by heaven."


"So you mean, Xiao Tian is destined to be an extraordinary martial artist?!" Crystal finally understood Yu s.h.i.+"s words.


"Yes." Yu s.h.i.+ replied as she nodded her head.


"Then why didn"t he tell me about this?" Crystal still didn"t understand why Xiao Tian hid the fact that he was destined to be an extraordinary martial artist.


Yu s.h.i.+ sighed before answering, "Crystal, he is a candidate to become the Ruler, a martial artist who has the chance to control all martial artists later. Do you think all martial artists wants to be his underlings? Of course, many martial artists will try to kill him because he is a threat to them."


Yu s.h.i.+ then continued, "All martial artists practice martial arts to change their destiny and stand on top, not to be someone"s underling. That"s why they will try to kill him when he is still weak because people like Xiao Tian is destined to be an extraordinary martial artist if they let him to grow."


Yu s.h.i.+ also told Crystal that Xiao Tian had no strong family background, so it would be dangerous if other martial artists knew that he was a candidate to be the Ruler.


"He is so amazing!" Crystal praised Xiao Tian.


"Don"t tell me. This was the reason why he was able to reach the mid-level master stage in just two years?!"


She added in her mind.


Yu s.h.i.+ then grabbed Crystal"s shoulders and spoke, "Crystal, you have to be one of his wives no matter what!"


Xiao Tian was an amazing person, so she wanted Crystal to be Xiao Tian"s wife. First, he was a genius in business.


Second, he was an attractive young man. And the most important thing was that he was also a genius in martial arts and a candidate to be the Ruler.


In her view, no one could compare to Xiao Tian because he was an ideal man to be a husband.


"Master, isn"t it too dangerous to be his wife? He is a candidate to be the Ruler so many people want to take his life later." of course, Crystal said this because she only wanted to change Yu s.h.i.+"s mind.


Xiao Tian was her good friend, so she would help him if his life was in danger. She didn"t care even if she had to fight all martial artists because he was important to her.


"In life, we need to take a risk.. This time, I bet on Xiao Tian because I"m sure he will be the Ruler later." Yu s.h.i.+ replied, "So, how is it? You agree to be his future wife, right?"
