Chapter 1292 - 1286: Breaking the Restriction (2)

Chapter 1292 -1286: Breaking the Restriction (2)

Song Xiaodong indeed left, and before leaving, he helped Qingluan lift the restriction.

Although doing so carried some risk, after all, Qingluan was his enemy and also the princess of the Dark Night Sect. Even if they met again in the future, they would still be mortal enemies.

However, during these days, Qingluan showed no intention of killing him and even helped him achieve Great Perfection. For that alone, Song Xiaodong felt grateful towards her.

Moreover, Song Xiaodong sensed that Qingluan wasn’t the type of person completely devoid of conscience. Their positions were different, akin to soldiers from different countries. Even if they held mutual admiration off the battlefield, when on it, neither side would hold back.

The Dark Night Sect had many masters, and while Qingluan’s strength wasn’t top-notch among them, he would face many strong opponents in the future. If he didn’t even have the courage to confront Qingluan now, how could he face others even stronger in the Dark Night Sect later on?

So Song Xiaodong lifted the restriction on Qingluan, even if they’d fight to the death later, he’d have no regrets.

Chapter 1287: Astonishment

Song Xiaodong had been away for nearly half a month, and nothing had disturbed the peace at home. After all, he would occasionally call, reassuring everyone of his safety.

When they saw him return, everyone was extremely delighted. He was caught in a flurry of hugging and kissing, busy but content.

“Husband, why didn’t you bring Qingluan back with you?” Xiao Yingying asked with a mischievous smile.

“We are natural enemies, there’s simply no way we can coexist. No point in bringing her back!” Song Xiaodong shook his head.

Xiao Yingying blinked and said, “Husband, I feel like there’s a hidden meaning in your words. The reason you didn’t bring her is because of the opposing stances, so if that wasn’t the case, would you have brought her back?”

Song Xiaodong laughed heartily and said, “No, but I did gain a lot from this trip, thanks to her help.”

The women at home weren’t truly masters, so they couldn’t quite grasp the significance of Song Xiaodong’s gains.

Having been away for a while, he spent the past two days comforting everyone and attending to many pending matters within the Su Family that required his attention.

Busy for two days, Sun Yiyi also came to the Su Family, and together with Song Xiaodong, she went to the Su Family’s backyard.

They sat together with Su Zhentian, Dragon Nine, and several top-tier masters of the Su Family.

Su Zhentian immediately said, “Family Head, it’s been a while since we’ve met, and you appear more composed than ever. It seems you’ve achieved something profound again.”

Song Xiaodong laughed heartily and said, “Indeed, I’ve made great progress and understood a higher level of Martial Arts.”

“What level?” Su Zhentian and the Su Family members were all excited, as Song Xiaodong never kept anything to himself. Any insights he had were shared with them, and since he joined the Su Family, they’ve gained countless benefits.

“Great Perfection!” Song Xiaodong casually uttered three words.

“Family Head, you’ve reached Great Perfection?” Dragon Nine exclaimed excitedly.

Song Xiaodong nodded and smiled, “Initial Understanding.”

Dragon Nine, thrilled, punched the air, saying, “The Family Head indeed progresses swiftly.”

Sun Yiyi curiously asked, “What is Great Perfection? I’ve never heard of it before.”

Song Xiaodong explained, “It’s a level hard to reach for regular families; only in top-tier families in Beijing might someone attain such a level.”

“Then let me try.” Sun Yiyi jumped up excitedly.

Song Xiaodong laughed and moved with Sun Yiyi to the open ground in the middle.

Sun Yiyi playfully said, “I’ll go all out to see how strong you really are.”

“Bring it on!” Song Xiaodong gestured.

Sun Yiyi immediately attacked Song Xiaodong. As soon as she moved, Su Zhentian couldn’t help but be startled, shaking his head saying, “I thought we were evenly matched, but it turns out you’ve long surpassed me.”

Sun Yiyi chuckled lightly and said, “Mr. Su, it’s all thanks to Xiaodong. With opportunities, you will surely become stronger.”

While talking, Sun Yiyi didn’t hold back at all, each move appearing extremely perilous.

However, Song Xiaodong handled it with ease; despite Sun Yiyi’s full effort, she couldn’t even touch him.

“Oh my!” Sun Yiyi stopped, and the eyes visible outside her veil looked at Song Xiaodong like she was seeing a monster. She suddenly moved close and pinched and prodded his body.

“Ahem…” Song Xiaodong coughed lightly.

Realizing her actions were excessive, Sun Yiyi noticed Su Zhentian and others had turned away, chuckled, and said, “Don’t overthink, I just wanted to see how this guy became so much stronger in such a short time.”

Su Zhentian laughed, “Indeed, I’m also very curious, the Family Head’s progress is remarkably fast.”

Song Xiaodong pulled Sun Yiyi over to sit down and then explained the key points of the Great Perfection level to everyone.

Su Zhentian couldn’t help but sigh, “So that’s it. I never imagined the path of Martial Arts ahead was like the stars and the vast sea, and we’re just frogs at the bottom of a well right now.”
