Chapter 356: Chapter 356

"What do you mean surpass you? I've always been stronger than you!" Nangong Suxin said unhappily.

Xiaoyao immediately chimed in, "Setting aside who's slightly stronger or weaker between you two now—it's about the same anyway—if you enter different sects, yours being weaker and hers being stronger, then unless you work harder while she works less, you still have hope of maintaining the current situation! However, this seems impossible. It's more likely that you'll be the lazy one!"

That's right. Under the same conditions, the Young Miss might still be able to keep pace with Nangong Suxin in their rivalry, but if Nangong Suxin's conditions were superior to hers, then barring any miracles, the Young Miss would definitely fall behind.

It wasn't that the Young Miss lacked talent—on the contrary, her talent was even slightly superior to Nangong Suxin's. If she worked harder, she could surpass Nangong Suxin by a small margin. The problem was that she simply couldn't be that diligent, at least not as diligent as Nangong Suxin.

The Young Miss loved drinking and loved women, especially drinking, which would drag down her cultivation progress. But asking her to give up alcohol was almost impossible—it would be worse than asking for her life. Moreover, without alcohol, she wouldn't have any mood to cultivate.

Meanwhile, Nangong Suxin had always been very diligent, especially after being stimulated by the Young Miss. She had almost completely unleashed her potential and wouldn't relax until she could leave the Young Miss ten streets behind.

"Mo Yu, you should still go to Hundred Flowers Valley. I support you!" Nangong Suxin immediately voiced her suggestion.

"Nice try. I've decided not to go. I'm going to set aside romantic entanglements and focus on my career first. Once I have a career, won't women be easy to catch by the handful!" The Young Miss abandoned her previous decision.

"..." Nangong Third Miss was once again speechless. She didn't understand where the Young Miss learned all these phrases. Could it be from him...

"Third Miss, do you have any opinions?" Xiaoyao sensed Nangong Third Miss looking at him and asked with some confusion.

"No, I don't!" Nangong Third Miss immediately lowered her head, afraid that Xiaoyao would discover her thoughts.

Xiaoyao didn't pay much attention and asked the Young Miss, "Alright, now that you don't want to go to Hundred Flowers Valley, where do you want to go?"

"How would I know? I don't know much about this place. As long as it's not worse than hers, it's fine! Shouldn't you be the one helping me choose?" The Young Miss directly threw this matter to Xiaoyao. Even if she understood this place well, she would do the same.

"Exactly. You just asked whether we should stay together or separate, so you should have already chosen paths for us," Nangong Suxin interjected.

"Currently, I've chosen the best places for you. If there's new information later, there might be new changes. But before that, I need to figure out whether you want to separate individually or all stay together—the results would be different," Xiaoyao said slowly.

Right after Xiaoyao finished speaking, the Young Miss immediately asked, "Do you think it's better for us to be together or not together?"

"If we don't count mutual support, it would be best for you and my boss to separate, because only then can you get the best cultivation conditions," Xiaoyao said. "That way, you can choose the most suitable sects."

"Separate!" Guxing said simply, two words.

"Then let's separate... Strange, you just said 'you and Seventh Sister.' Does that mean only Seventh Sister would be alone?" After the Young Miss nodded, she thought Xiaoyao's phrasing seemed worth investigating.

"Mm, although you and Nangong Suxin have different approaches, you're suitable to be together. The mutual stimulation between you is more useful than many pills," Xiaoyao nodded and said.

Then Xiaoyao added, "Moreover, you've been cultivating in the same environment before. What you both lack is the same!"

"Oh, I see. Fine, I'll suffer a bit and continue being with this annoying person," the Young Miss said somewhat reluctantly. This made Nangong Suxin feel the urge to explode, but given the current situation, she decided to endure it first and focus on serious matters.

"You won't suffer either. If Nangong Suxin is with you, then Third Miss might also be with you!" Xiaoyao winked, speaking in a low voice, though the others could still hear.

"This... Susu, will you come with us?" The Young Miss's eyes lit up.

"I'm not going with you—I'm going with my sister," Nangong Third Miss said. Although she didn't answer directly, she had already indicated that she would continue their trio.

"I knew it. Susu, you can't bear to leave me," the Young Miss said shamelessly, directly filtering out Nangong Suxin as the decisive factor.

"..." Nangong Third Miss didn't want to deal with the Young Miss.

"Hehe, Young Miss, you're so comfortable. Are you interested in taking down the big one? That would make things even easier," Xiaoyao said quietly from the side with a somewhat roguish expression.

"Take down the big one?" The Young Miss was stunned but quickly realized. "You mean take down Nangong Suxin. I don't like that type of woman. Even if you gave her to me, I wouldn't want her!"

"What a pity. Such high-quality sister flowers like these two are absolutely unique. If you could take them down, then... hehe, you understand," Xiaoyao said very quietly, almost leaning against the Young Miss.

"This... let me think..." The Young Miss put one hand on Xiaoyao's shoulder and held her chin with the other, making a "painful" decision.

"You two shameless creatures, enough!!" Nangong Suxin shouted angrily and threw punches at both of them. Seeing these two perverts conspiring together made her furious, especially when they were gossiping about her and her sister.

Nangong Suxin punched both of the nearly embracing scoundrels flying with one punch each.

"Cough cough, let's talk seriously!!" Xiaoyao flipped over and acted completely proper, as if what just happened hadn't occurred at all. And this wasn't even the most speechless part.

The most speechless part was that the Young Miss also seriously and solemnly said, "Nangong Suxin, don't cause trouble. We need to focus on serious matters now!"

Nangong Suxin clenched her fists tightly... Dıscover more novels at NovelHub(.)net

Xiaoyao immediately spoke up, "Cough cough, right now I only know about some famous major sects. There might be some super major sects I haven't learned about, but their entry conditions wouldn't be low either. We don't need to waste time waiting for opportunities—there will be plenty of chances to get that information later! As for unknown small sects, it's the same. They might be suitable, but we don't have time to inquire about them. Again, there will be opportunities to get what we want later!!"

Xiaoyao first explained the current situation. They didn't know much information yet, but generally speaking, relatively famous major sects were easy to inquire about because they were well-known!

As for those that weren't well-known, it would probably be somewhat difficult to inquire about them, and there might be various restrictions. In Xiaoyao's words, rather than spending time looking for the most suitable option, it was better to go to the currently known most suitable ones, because that time could already allow the three girls to successfully advance.

At the same time, even if they spent time searching, whether they could actually find the most suitable option was still an unknown. Life doesn't have that many choices—if you miss them, they might be gone forever!

Of course, Xiaoyao didn't think this would mean missing the most suitable options. He could find ways to obtain those most suitable cultivation methods and martial techniques later. He originally had this hobby of collecting these things and finding the best ones for Guxing, incidentally helping others too.

After all, not all martial techniques and cultivation methods suitable for them were concentrated in one sect. This sect had one move, that sect had another style—this was what Xiaoyao wanted to do: collect them, organize them, and give them to Guxing. The others were just incidental.

"Just tell us directly where we're going and what preparations we should make," the Young Miss said straightforwardly.

Xiaoyao smiled and said: "Two places. First is where my boss will go—the Huangpu Family, a very unique family. Although it's a family, it's more like an academy that specializes in training generals for various forces! Many generals from countries across this land are external disciples of the Huangpu Family!"

"I see, this is indeed... wait, something sounds off. Shouldn't this Huangpu Family be the place for me and Nangong Suxin to go? We've walked through battlefields and are generals of the Great Tang Empire," the Young Miss discovered the strange aspect.

If she and Nangong Suxin were to go to the Huangpu Family, that would make perfect sense, but now it was Guxing who was going. This was very strange.

"Did you make a mistake?"

Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "No, that's correct! I didn't make a mistake!! You've already experienced so much life and death on battlefields. What would be the point of going to the Huangpu Family now? It would be of no help to your cultivation!"

"Well, they should have martial techniques suitable for us," the Young Miss thought for a moment, seemingly only able to think of this.

They had already been through life and death on battlefields so many times that battlefields were becoming less and less helpful to them. Even if they entered the military again, aside from killing enemies and achieving merit, there wouldn't be much help.

They needed new things—this was what Xiaoyao was about to explain!!

"Martial techniques aren't the most important thing. For cultivation, it's best to encounter some new things that can stimulate your comprehension. If you comprehend new things, you'll naturally break through! So what you need isn't this Huangpu Family. As for the martial techniques inside, after my boss learns about them, she'll naturally teach them to you!" Xiaoyao said.
