Celestial 'War God' Return-Chapter 286: Training

"This is your room, and you should rest first, Brother. Tomorrow morning, I’ll take you to a good training area, and the wild beasts there will be perfect opponents for you."

"Thank you, Brother." After Miao Xianyun left, Tang Xiao’s clone didn’t enter the room; instead, he sat in the small garden in front of the room, observing the Miao Clan from the map displayed by Xiao Ai. ’This clan used to be a first-grade clan, but they declined drastically after being attacked by the Xie Clan in the past, and their number is less than fifty now. Even so, their two leaders are strong, and they are stronger than my grandfather and master. Miao Xianyun is still young, but his cultivation has already reached that stage.’

*Tap... Tap...*

Tang Xiao’s clone looked at Shen Ling, who was walking towards her room, which was right next to his room.

When she noticed Tang Xiao’s clone’s gaze on her, Shen Ling abandoned her intention to enter the room and approach him. "Are you a native of Earth II?"

"Are you from the outside world?"

"Yes." Shen Ling sat beside him. "I arrived on Earth II three days ago, and my master is the ancestor of this clan, so I contacted them for help."

"Asking for help?"

"I wanted to find out a truth, and I didn’t know the situation on Earth II, so I asked them for help."

"Oh."

"Are you curious about my problem?"

"No." Tang Xiao’s clone shook his head slightly. "Everyone has their own problems, and other people’s problems are none of my business."

"Are you always this indifferent?"

"Not really." Tang Xiao’s clone turned to her. "We don’t know each other, okay?"

Shen Ling stretched out her hand to him. "My name is Shen Ling."

"Feng Xiao." Shen Ling was a little annoyed because Tang Xiao’s clone wasn’t friendly at all, and he didn’t want to shake her hand. "It’s getting late, so I’ll go rest now."

’Tch! Why is he acting so indifferent to me?’ Shen Ling inwardly sighed and ran to her room.

[Aren’t you interested in Shen Ling, Master?]

"She’s beautiful and sexy, but I have no interest in her." Tang Xiao’s clone sat cross-legged on the bed. "Moreover, she already knows the evil deeds of both her parents and brother, but she still came here to investigate my Tang Clan, and I don’t know what she’ll do if she finds out later. If she can accept the fact that her family are evil people, then I won’t bother her, but if she chooses to become my enemy, I will make her suffer."

[Master, I think you should take Xiao Meng and Xiao Hua out of the ark in case Xiao Luo contacts them, or their disappearance will bring trouble to you and the Sun Clan.]

Tang Xiao’s clone raised an eyebrow slightly. "I’ll go train somewhere else tomorrow, and I’ll get them out of the ark when I get there. Did Yi An and Ouyang Qing contact me, Xiao Ai?"

[They were busy gathering at the Yi House, so they didn’t contact you at all. Yang Zhiyue contacted you before, but she didn’t contact you again after that. On the other hand, Lin Yan contacted you dozens of times, but I didn’t pick up her calls or reply to her messages. Since you gave up on your intention to kill her, and you are already bored with her, I think you should reveal your true identity to her.]

"I haven’t decided about Lin Yan, so just let her continue contacting me." Tang Xiao’s clone immediately closed his eyes and cultivated.

*Knock... Knock...*

In the morning, Tang Xiao’s clone immediately exited the room when Miao Xianyun knocked on his door. "Are you ready to hunt wild beasts again?"

"I—"

"Are you two going to train?" They turned to Shen Ling, who had just emerged from her room. "Last night, Senior Fei told me to come with you if you two wanted to train."

"My mother already told me about you, and I have no problem with that." Miao Xianyun looked at Tang Xiao’s clone. "What about you, Brother? Will you join us?"

"No," Tang Xiao’s clone refused. "I’ll train alone in another area, and we can meet at the East River tonight."

Shen Ling felt disturbed and annoyed by Tang Xiao’s clone’s decision, and she was sure that he refused to join them because of her. "Since the three of us are here, why don’t we go practice together?"

"I’m used to practicing alone." Tang Xiao’s clone looked at her. "Moreover, you’ve never been here before, which means you’ve never fought against those wild beasts. I always go to areas with stronger wild beasts, and I don’t have time to protect you from them, so you should go train with Brother Xianyun."

"Hey! Although I’ve never fought those wild beasts, I’m used to sparring with my master, so you don’t have to look down on me like that." Shen Ling protested in a high-pitched voice.

"I’m not looking down on you, but you should be aware of the difference between sparring with your master and fighting those wild beasts." Shen Ling frowned. "Your master won’t fight you earnestly, and he also won’t use his killing intent when fighting you. On the contrary, those wild beasts will not be merciful to you, and they will attack you with the intention of killing you. You have never fought against them, so I won’t take you to my training area because my opponents are much stronger than you, and I don’t have time to protect you. If you encounter a powerful beast, you will die, and it will eat you alive."

Shen Ling trembled at Tang Xiao’s clone’s last sentence, but Miao Xianyun spoke directly to her. "Brother Feng is right, Miss Shen. Those wild beasts are different from my ancestor, and they will not show you mercy. For now, I will take you to an area with beasts whose strength is below yours, and you can learn to fight with them first. Once you are used to fighting them, I will take you to an area with beasts whose strength is equal to yours."

’Tch!’ Shen Ling gritted her teeth, but she didn’t protest anymore and immediately followed behind them. She repeatedly glanced at Tang Xiao’s clone with an annoyed gaze, as she was still annoyed by his indifferent attitude. ’Tch! I’ll prove to him that I’m not a weak woman who needs his protection.’ 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

After arriving outside the clan, Miao Xianyun immediately summoned Bai Shi to meet him, but the white lion’s presence frightened Shen Ling due to its enormous size.

Shen Ling hid behind Tang Xiao’s clone and trembled. "Do... do all beasts have bodies as big as this white lion?"

"Hahaha," Miao Xianyun laughed as he rubbed Bai Shi’s body. "Miss Shen, some beasts have large bodies like Bai Shi, and some have small bodies like pets in the outside world. In fact, some beasts have bodies that are much larger than him, such as the Jade-Eyed Python, the Iron-Fist Bear, the Two-Headed Water Serpent, and many more. However, I will not take you to a place where beasts are as large as them, and I will start training you against beasts with a small body size, such as the Three-Eyed Toad, the Viper-Tailed Lizard, and beasts like them."

"Gulp." Shen Lin swallowed as she looked at Bai Shi. ’How am I going to fight a beast as big as this white lion? I’ll definitely die if I fight him, and he’ll eat my corpse.’

"You should go with Brother Xianyun because the beasts in my training area are much larger than this white lion, and they are extremely ferocious." Shen Lin was shocked to hear that. "Brother Xianyun, I will leave first, and we will gather at the East River tonight."

"Okay." After Tang Xiao’s clone disappeared, Miao Xianyun turned to Shen Ling and asked her a question. "Shall we leave now, Miss Shen?"

"Are... are we really going to ride that white lion?"

"Hahaha," Miao Xianyun laughed at that. "Don’t worry, Miss Shen. Bai Shi is a tame beast, and he’s really gentle despite his size, so you don’t need to be afraid of him."

"O... okay." Miao Xianyun immediately carried Shen Lin onto Bai Shi’s back, who was right away taking them away from the Miao Clan. "Ugh! Can you ask him not to run so fast?"

"Miss Shen, this is Bai Shi’s slowest speed, so I can’t ask him to run any slower."

"Okay." Shen Ling was curious about how Tang Xiao’s clone could disappear so quickly, and her senses couldn’t track him. ’Where exactly is he training?’

Meanwhile, Tang Xiao’s clone had arrived inside the forest, which was filled with large and ferocious beasts. He did not directly fight with them; instead, he entered the ark, but he immediately came out again bringing Xiao Meng and Xiao Hua with him.

Before he started fighting those beasts, Tang Xiao’s clone ordered Xiao Hua to protect Xiao Meng, especially since some of those beasts were much stronger than her.

Xiao Meng sighed softly, but she did nothing and sat on a large tree branch. As she was thinking about something else, she suddenly received a voice transmission from her grandfather, asking about her whereabouts. "Why is my grandfather looking for me? What should I tell him?"

Since Tang Xiao’s clone had just started his training, Xiao Meng had delayed asking him, and she also hadn’t replied to Xiao Luo’s messages.
