Li Meilin wasn't the only one rushing forward. Due to day-by-day training, Yan Xiaobao was full of resilience. He swiftly returned to his daily guardian battles, his combat power continuously growing stronger.
Yan Xiaobao didn't understand what Wan Qiao wanted from him, but ever since she assisted him in his training, he felt deeply grateful for her help. One evening, when Yan Xiaobao had finished his training, he saw Wan Qiao waiting for him. She nodded politely, and he once again followed her to her room.
When they arrived, they sat indoors, silent for a long time. Neither Wan Qiao nor Yan Xiaobao said anything; the two simply sat there, watching each other for a while.
Finally, after a few minutes passed slowly, Yan Xiaobao cleared his throat and looked at Wan Qiao expectantly. Day after day of training had left him feeling his body's strength swelling, growing, making him strong enough to defeat ordinary King-level experts.
