Chapter 409: 0410 Training Companion

"The DuGu family..." the demeanor of the malevolent mystique turned cold, and in an instant, Ye Qiu felt the air around him freeze, the temperature dropping abruptly by four or five degrees.

"I am not from the DuGu family. I’m afraid there are no more of the DuGu clan in this world!" For some reason, Ye Qiu saw a trace of desolation in the eyes of the malevolent mystique as he sighed.

He’s not from the DuGu family?

Wasn’t it said that the DuGu family had the same eyes as himself?

Ye Qiu was suspicious for a moment but then suddenly realized that the malevolent mystique had been staring at him intently, the gaze burning and somewhat frightening.

"Can your eyes truly see through everything?" the malevolent mystique asked.

Ye Qiu nodded. His penetrative eyes were indeed mysterious. He had always wanted to know why his eyes were different from ordinary people’s, able to see through objects.

The malevolent mystique grabbed Ye Qiu’s shoulder and remained silent for a long time. Even with Ye Qiu’s late peak Martial Artist True Qi level, he felt pain from the strong grip of the mystique’s hands.

"Do you still intend to kill me?" Ye Qiu asked, uncertain of what the malevolent mystique was planning, given his previous intent to kill and now seemingly interested in him.

"Kill you..." the malevolent mystique let go of Ye Qiu’s shoulder and then shook his head, "If anyone kills you, I will slaughter his entire family!"

The malevolent mystique uttered these words with lethal intent, leaving Ye Qiu in stunned silence. When had he become so important to the other party to warrant such a fierce declaration? Furthermore, the look in his eyes was completely serious, not deceitful at all.

Seeing Ye Qiu’s confused eyes, the malevolent mystique said no more. After telling him, ’If there is anything about martial arts you don’t understand, you can ask him,’ he let Ye Qiu return to his room.

Ye Qiu was baffled. The malevolent mystique’s demeanor today was vastly different from before. He wondered if it was the kinder personality taking over, prompting such actions.

But compared to the kind mystique, the aura exuded by the malevolent mystique was completely different. He was definitely the malevolent personality, only why had his attitude towards Ye Qiu changed so drastically?

Was it because of the black Qi, or was it due to the penetrative eyes?

Ye Qiu couldn’t fathom the thoughts of such a master; he simply couldn’t speculate

The next morning, Bai Xiong obediently stood by the door, like a doorman, waiting for the malevolent mystique.

His life was now entirely in the other’s hands. If he didn’t perform well, being killed would mean a futile death.

Today’s Bai Xiong had long ceased to hope that the malevolent mystique would fear the Condor-Gil family. With the mystique’s strength, facing a family or even a martial family would be a headache.

Ju Lu had died at the hand of the malevolent mystique, and Bai Xiong suspected this outcome. While he had thought of avenging his brother’s death, considering the disparity in strength between him and the antagonist, along with Ju Lu leaving him to escape alone, Bai Xiong hadn’t lost his mind.

At present, the most important thing was to stay alive after leaving the malevolent mystique. All else was trivial.

To please the malevolent mystique, Bai Xiong went as far as bringing breakfast to the doorstep, fulfilling every bit of servitude.

Ye Qiuxiu had practiced all night, resting only for an hour, before leaving his room and seeing Bai Xiong quietly standing by the door, showing a look of surprise.

Bai Xiong glanced at Ye Qiu. To a True Qi Martial Artist like Bai Xiong, Ye Qiu barely warranted a second look. If it weren’t for the malevolent mystique’s intervention, Ye Qiu would have long been dead by his hand. If not for Ye Qiu’s connections, he wouldn’t be here, hoping for a chance to live.

Bai Xiong remained silent, but in his heart, he detested Ye Qiu profoundly. If given the chance to escape from the mysterious figure known for his malevolent thoughts, he would never forgive Ye Qiu.

However, Bai Xiong couldn’t voice these thoughts. Otherwise, if Ye Qiu reported to the mysterious figure, his life would be in immediate danger.

Ye Qiu wasn’t angry; he acknowledged that the other’s strength was greater than his. He hadn’t stood at the door long when the mysterious figure opened it. Seeing the two men, he showed no surprise, as if he had sensed the scene before him all along.

"After a night has passed, are there aspects of martial arts you do not understand?" asked the mysterious figure, causing Bai Xiong’s eyes to widen. What did this mean? It indicated that, in the heart of the mysterious figure, Ye Qiu was much more important than him, a mutant.

Bai Xiong felt both jealous and envious.

Standing aside, he looked at Ye Qiu with complex eyes, realizing he needed to change his attitude toward Ye Qiu.

Bai Xiong’s mindset shifted; he no longer looked down on Ye Qiu. Being able to receive guidance from the malicious mysterious figure, Ye Qiu might indeed have a chance to catch up with him in strength.

The three of them finished breakfast first. At the table, Bai Xiong was extremely cautious, not speaking until Ye Qiu and the mysterious figure had finished eating.

During that time, Ye Qiu raised several questions about martial arts, and the mysterious figure patiently explained them, solidifying Bai Xiong’s belief that the mysterious figure might truly be Ye Qiu’s master.

Only Ye Qiu knew that the treatment he received wasn’t because the other appreciated his talent in martial arts, but for reasons unknown.

After spending the night, he felt the mysterious figure, if not a solitary member of a certain clan, was related to it.

Ye Qiu suppressed his curiosity about the "perceptive eye" and wasn’t in a hurry. As long as the mysterious figure didn’t harbor a killing intent toward him, he was content with this arrangement, receiving the man’s guidance, which was a great opportunity.

Ye Qiu had been mentored by the benevolent mysterious figure before, which greatly increased his cultivation. Now being guided by the malevolent mysterious figure, he feared his strength could further increase. Even if he couldn’t break the legendary constraint for now, he was at least accumulating a wealth of experience. When the time came to explode with a thinner accumulation, it wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing.

After a simple meal, the three continued on their way. Ye Qiu did not ask their destination, and Bai Xiong dared not ask either. However, the mysterious figure did not follow the town’s road, instead, choosing a mountain path, intending to cut through the mountains.

With the significant change in the mysterious figure’s attitude toward himself, Ye Qiu found him not too difficult to get along with and began earnestly consulting him on the unresolved questions and doubts in martial arts. Bai Xiong, on the other hand, listened intently. Although Ye Qiu’s martial arts realm was lower than his in terms of strength, in terms of mentality and experience, he was not completely surpassed by Ye Qiu.

For Bai Xiong, who relied on technology to reach the legendary realm, the mysterious figure was disdainful and did not recognize this so-called pseudo-legendary realm.

Hearing the mysterious figure’s remarks, Bai Xiong could only nod in agreement, not daring to anger the man. Yet, Ye Qiu believed what the mysterious figure said, that Martial Artists are forged through relentless trials, both in martial strength and mindset, which technology cannot surpass. As for Bai Xiong’s strength, as the mysterious figure stated, he might have reached legendary power, but regarding control over that power, he wasn’t close to the legendary realm and was even inferior to the True Qi realm.

While Ye Qiu was secretly shocked, he very much agreed with these views. Initially, Bai Xiong didn’t believe it, but after the mysterious figure demonstrated his skill, Bai Xiong had to admit there was a difference between himself and someone truly in the legendary realm.

"You are very close to the legendary realm; when your power accumulates enough depth, and your mindset and body are in complete harmony, that will be the day you step into the legendary realm," the mysterious figure said.

Then his gaze fell on Bai Xiong, "There is a way you can reduce the time it takes to reach the legendary realm."

"Oh? I wonder what method the elder speaks of?" Ye Qiu’s eyes lit up.

"By using him as your sparring partner, pay close attention, and you will gain insights," the mysterious figure pointed at Bai Xiong.

Bai Xiong’s face showed surprise, "Have me be this youngster’s sparring partner?"

Bai Xiong was utterly unwilling, but when the mysterious figure gave him a chilling smile, Bai Xiong bowed his head and willingly said, "Since the elder said so, I don’t mind being a sparring partner."
