Jiang Xiaobai dared not ignore Ao Yan’s words. After all, the fact that he could survive in Dragon Valley was largely thanks to this woman.

He sat down in front of Ao Yan at once.

Ao Yan was calm, she picked up the teacup and placed it in front of Jiang Xiaobai, then poured him a cup of tea herself.

Such an action startled Jiang Xiaobai.

What new tactics was this woman initiating, what was she up to?

However, Jiang Xiaobai understood that in times like these, the best course of action was to keep his calm.

“Aren’t you going to explain today’s events?”

Ao Yan suddenly spoke up.

Jiang Xiaobai pretended to be clueless, “What event? I don’t know anything.”

“Still dare to play dumb with me!”

Ao Yan’s face suddenly turned cold: “Don’t think I don’t know, you were the one behind all this!”

“Explain what you did, in detail, or else kneel in the courtyard for the night.” At this, Jiang Xiaobai completely caved in.

He did not want to kneel here. Apart from the shame, his knees would hurt.

Left with no choice, he confessed all, and prepared himself for Ao Yan’s retaliation.

Surprisingly, Ao Yan did not make any move. She just continued drinking her tea indifferently.

“Aren’t you going to punish me?”

“Why should I? You did stir up trouble everywhere with my little brother, but Ao Tianheng had it coming.”

Ao Yan scoffed, “Do you think I am a person who particularly likes to control him?”

Jiang Xiaobai solemnly nodded his agreement.

“Hmm, that’s just for show. If I really wanted to teach him a lesson, do you think he would be free to run around everywhere?”

Ao Yan laughed lightly, “You don’t understand the circumstances in Dragon

Valley. If our parents can’t manage him, it’s my duty as his elder sister.”

“We must maintain certain appearances.”

While she spoke, there was a satisfied look in Ao Yan’s eyes.

At this point, Jiang Xiaobai finally realized what was happening. This was truly a pair of remarkable siblings!

The elder sister seemed to always discipline her younger brother, but in reality she was protecting him.

Thinking about it made sense. If Ao Yan really wanted to punish Ao Cheng, he would have been brought to his knees long ago.

Each time Ao Yan scolded Ao Cheng, it was as if she was performing. Realizing this, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“You guys are really…”

“Really what?” Ao Yan gave Jiang Xiaobai a cold look.

Jiang Xiaobai looked awkward as Ao Yan continued, “Did you cause the trouble with the Ancient clan?”

“Yes, I wanted to delay for some time.”

Jiang Xiaobai indifferently replied, “I also want to struggle for my life. It would be too frustrating to just die like that.”

“You could leave.”

Ao Yan looked at him.

“Leave?” Jiang Xiaobai replied with a light laugh, “Where can I go? With my current strength, I don’t think I could even get away from the vicinity of

Tianyuan City before the Ancient clan catches me.”

“Moreover, I don’t think I could get away.”

The small courtyard fell silent for a time.

Although Jiang Xiaobai had some strength now, his time was running out. Even if he swallowed up a spirit stone vein each day for a month, his cultivation would not greatly improve.

Even if he managed to reach the Dividing the Gods stage, so what?

The Ancient clan was filled with high-level cultivators. Even Dragon Valley had to make way for them, so someone in the early Dividing the Gods stage like him still wouldn’t stand a chance against them.

“Given the help you’ve offered to Ao Cheng all this while, I promise to protect you as much as I can. If it’s impossible, I would do my utmost to get you out of Dragon Valley. As for what happens next, it’s up to your own fortune,” Ao Yan replied after a moment’s silence.

Jiang Xiaobai was quite satisfied with this assurance. Apart from grabbing him,

Ao Yan didn’t owe him anything.

“Alright, I am at ease with your words.”

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, drinking his tea as he asked, “Oh right, did Liu

Chengquan concoct any elixir for you today?”

“Hmmph! You’ve got some nerve asking. All of today was spent dealing with Ao

Tianheng’s matters, where would there be time for him to concoct elixirs for

Ao Yan scoffed, “But he did say that tomorrow he’ll inspect all circumstances, trying to concoct an elixir that I could use.”

“However, due to the delay you caused, I can only hope to break through to the late Dividing the Gods stage before the Ancient clan arrives, and no harm will come to you.”

Jiang Xiaobai shrugged, not particularly concerned.

Still, he felt moved deep down and took a round, white-jade-like elixir from his storage space.

“No need to trouble Liu Chengquan anymore. If he concocts an elixir as per your suggestion, even if it does fulfill your requirements, it would severely impact your future cultivation.”

Jiang Xiaobai calmly added, “It will overdraw the potential of your bloodline. While it may offer a short-term enhancement, it would make higher stages unreachable in the future.

Ao Yan fell silent.

Of course she knew this, but she had no choice.

The situation did not allow her any retreat. Although she knew it would overdraw the potential of her bloodline, she had to do it.

Otherwise, all her efforts might be in vain.

“No need for your opinion. Doing this might be for my own sake, but if I can make the breakthrough, you can survive too,” said Ao Yan looking at Jiang

Xiaobai.

But Jiang Xiaobai just smiled and shook his head.

“That method won’t work; consume this elixir instead. It will hasten your bloodline’s awakening speed; coupled with a few magical pills, your breakthrough will just be a matter of time.”

“I estimate it would be successful in about half a month.’

Hearing this, Ao Yan frowned.

She had considered this method too, but the strength of the bloodline within her was too powerful; accelerating its awakening speed was impossible.

Forget about it being impossible, even if there was a way, the cost would be astronomical.

Moreover, the probability of success was minimal.

Instinctively, Ao Yan did not believe in Jiang Xiaobai’s elixir.

But on second thought, he did manage to create a Detoxifying Elixir, perhaps he could really find a solution?

“Are you sure about this?” After thinking about it for a bit, Ao Yan looked at Jiang Xiaobai.

“This involves many things, many lives, are you sure this will work?” Ao Yan’s words were grave, and Jiang Xiaobai was slightly taken aback.

What should he say?

Regarding the elixir, he was not sure either.

The most critical factor was the state of Ao Yan’s bloodline!

“Give me your hand, let me check,” Jiang Xiaobai said seriously for the matter was indeed serious.

And he just remembered this point. Had he known, he would have first checked Ao Yan’s condition before finding a solution.

Ao Yan was also made nervous by Jiang Xiaobai’s demeanor.

Was it reliable or not?

But thinking about the impending crisis in Dragon Valley, Ao Yan had no choice.

After hesitating, she decided to grasp at straws.

She stretched out her flawless, tender hand. It was full moon tonight and the moonlight was extraordinarily bright, illuminating the woman’s tender hand, making it appear even more alluring..
