After dinner, Ye Xiao and the others gradually returned to the classroom, but Ye Xiao said he needed to discuss something with Su Yun, so he did not immediately go back!

Ling Shuya and the others cast doubtful glances at Ye Xiao. However, Ye Xiao was preoccupied with asking Su Yun about the Heart Cleansing Pill, so he did not pay much attention to the expressions of others.

"You want to ask if my Inner Strength has recovered, right?" Seeing that everyone had left, Su Yun didn't wait for Ye Xiao to speak and smiled as she said.

Ye Xiao immediately responded with a smile, "Indeed, Sister Su knows me well!"

Su Yun said, "I thought that after taking the Heart Cleansing Pill, my meridians would recover, and my Inner Strength would too, but..."

"What? Isn't that the case?" Ye Xiao looked at Su Yun with concern.

Su Yun nodded and said, "Indeed, that isn't the case. My Inner Power True Qi is even weaker than that of an ordinary martial artist at the Yellow Rank Early Stage. It seems it will take some time to recover."

"Another recovery period is needed?" Ye Xiao was very puzzled to hear Su Yun's words. After Huo Feng took the Heart Cleansing Pill, it only took two hours for her to fully recover, and her Inner Power True Qi had also completely recovered. However, from Su Yun's words, it seemed that her Inner Power True Qi had not immediately recovered!

Seeing the puzzled look on Su Yun's face, Su Yun said, "I'm not too clear on the specifics, but what I'm sure of is that my meridians have fully recovered. Although my Inner Power True Qi is thin, the recovery speed isn't slow; after all, it's faster than re-cultivating from scratch. At this rate, it won't take more than three months for me to return to my peak state!"

Peak state!

Hearing Su Yun's words, Ye Xiao immediately became interested and smiled, "Sister Su, what level is your peak state?"

On hearing Ye Xiao's question, a fervent look appeared in Su Yun's eyes as she slowly said, "It might be the same as your current level!"

On hearing Su Yun's words, Ye Xiao was slightly startled and looked at Su Yun with a bit of surprise, saying, "Sister Su, are you sure? Have you reached the Xuan Rank?"

Su Yun said, "Mid-stage Xuan Rank!"

Ye Xiao was shocked when he heard Su Yun's words. He had always considered himself a genius, but it seemed that was not the case at all, at least in front of Su Yun. Ye Xiao felt that he was not a genius but just an ordinary martial artist!

Su Yun was now twenty-two years old, Ye Xiao was nineteen. Although Su Yun was three years older than Ye Xiao, one must know that Ye Xiao practiced the purely authentic Nine Yang Divine Skill, while Su Yun probably did not practice such a profound cultivation technique.

"How about that?" Su Yun said with pride to Ye Xiao, "Still arrogant?"

Though Ye Xiao was shocked internally, he scoffed, smiling, "Just Mid-stage Xuan Rank, not a peerless expert of the Heaven Rank. I can only say, you can't beat me!"

Su Yun, upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, was so frustrated she nearly spat blood. What kind of reasoning was that? Additionally, Su Yun began to doubt the depth of Ye Xiao's abilities. Previously, when Li Dachong visited the class and later had an initial skirmish with Ye Xiao in the hallway, Su Yun could tell Li Dachong was definitely of the Xuan Rank. At that time, she suspected that Ye Xiao was at the Early Xuan Rank, but later Ye Xiao had returned safely. In the Martial Arts World, fights were often to the death; since Ye Xiao came back, it likely didn't end well for Li Dachong, perhaps even fatally. If Ye Xiao could defeat Li Dachong, what then was the level of his strength?

Su Yun looked at Ye Xiao and said, "You're impressive, okay?"

Ye Xiao immediately chuckled and then said to Su Yun, "Oh right, Sister Su, there's a method to rapidly enhance your strength. Would you like to try it?"

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Su Yun's eyes lit up. Now that her meridians had just recovered, what she naturally wanted was to swiftly enhance her strength and return to her peak state. By then, she might not even need to stay here anymore; after all, the outside world was far more wondrous!

Thus, hearing Ye Xiao mention a method to rapidly enhance her strength, Su Yun immediately looked at him excitedly and said, "Really? What method? Tell me!"

Seeing Su Yun very interested, Ye Xiao purposely teased and smiled, "That thing? I'm afraid you might not agree though!"

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Su Yun immediately rolled her eyes at him and said, "Stop beating around the bush, just say it quickly or forget it!"

Ye Xiao seemed to have calculated her response and chuckled, "Okay, since you're so eager to know, I'll tell you. But after I reveal this method, you mustn't curse me, hit me, or ignore me!"

Feeling baffled at Ye Xiao's words, Su Yun responded, "Just say it. Don't feel burdened. If the method doesn't work, we don't have to use it. I won't blame you if your idea isn't good!"

Ye Xiao immediately smiled and said, "Sister Su really understands people. Alright, I'll tell you, um, this matter is too important, let me whisper it in your ear!"

Sister Su looked around and saw there was nobody nearby, then nodded, ready to listen attentively!

Ye Xiao smiled cheerfully at Su Yun and quickly moved close to her ear. His lips barely moved as a stream of hot breath poured out of his mouth, making Su Yun's earlobe immediately turn as red as blood. However, in order to hear the method of quickly enhancing her strength, Su Yun still listened carefully!

In less than ten seconds!

Ye Xiao shared his own method with Su Yun, and her face turned as red as the apples Ye Xiao had bought that day!

"Ye Xiao!" Su Yun's face darkened, glaring at Ye Xiao. What Ye Xiao had just whispered in her ear was none other than the so-called dual cultivation!

No wonder Su Yun's face changed!

Seeing Su Yun's changed expression, Ye Xiao immediately stepped back several steps with a hehe laughter, saying, "Sister Su, you must stick to the rules. You just said even if the method I spoke of was wrong, you wouldn't hit me, scold me, or ignore me!"

"Ye Xiao, don't ever talk… talk about such shameless methods again. You were just…" Su Yun wanted to say Ye Xiao was just teasing her, but then she suddenly remembered this was a school setting. What if other students overheard them and made fun of her?

Ye Xiao chuckled lightly, guessing what Su Yun hadn't finished saying, and immediately laughed, "Sister Su, I swear it's true. It's recorded in an ancient book. This method is so far the only known one without side effects. You should really consider it!"

Su Yun immediately stared at Ye Xiao, and seeing that she seemed about to explode, Ye Xiao wisely ran toward the academic building, but every three steps, he would turn back and smile at Su Yun!

Watching Ye Xiao's shameless expression, Su Yun felt both joy and anger in her heart. Oddly enough, even though she should be angry at being teased by Ye Xiao, she couldn't truly be angry. Could it be that she had feelings for Ye Xiao!

Su Yun had always restrained herself around Ye Xiao, primarily because she was his teacher, and also because she was three years older than he was!

But what about Su Yun's heart? Probably only he himself knew!

Instead of immediately returning to class, Ye Xiao went to Lin Dieying's classroom!

Ling Shuya said Lin Dieying had an emergency and had left the school. Though Ye Xiao verbally insisted they needn't call her, he was quite worried inside and being suspected by Ling Shuya and others of doing that thing to Su Yun; so, Ye Xiao thought it was best not to mention going to see Lin Dieying—it's better to have less trouble!

Regarding teasing Su Yun, Ye Xiao really didn't mean to tease her on purpose. Or rather, he never intended to tease her; he spoke of that cultivation method because he wanted Su Yun to quickly increase her strength, but Su Yun didn't quite believe it!

Of course, Ye Xiao understood why Su Yun didn't believe it, after all, if he were in Su Yun's shoes, and someone bluntly told him that to increase his strength he had to get into bed, he'd probably think the other person was being a hooligan too!

Taking a familiar route, he arrived at Lin Dieying's classroom door. At this time, most of the students were already in class, and looking through the door, Ye Xiao noticed that Lin Dieying wasn't in the classroom!

Lin Dieying was an outstanding student, very diligent in her studies. She was supposed to be in the classroom at this time!

Ye Xiao stood in front of the corridor railing, greatly puzzled and somewhat baffled, wondering where Lin Dieying could be. Could something have happened at her home?

Just as Ye Xiao was thinking this, a voice rang out from behind him!

"Young man, why are you standing in the hallway?"

Ye Xiao immediately turned around to look at the speaker: a medium-built, slightly overweight man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, his small eyes twinkling brightly!

Looking at the man, Ye Xiao didn't recognize him and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"Don't you recognize me?" the man asked Ye Xiao.

Hearing this, Ye Xiao felt somewhat amused and quickly replied, "Who are you? Do I need to know you?"

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, the man's expression shifted slightly as he looked at Ye Xiao and asked, "Are you a student in this class?"

Ye Xiao glanced at Lin Dieying's classroom and shook his head, saying, "I'm from Class One."

"Class One?" Hearing that Ye Xiao was from Class One, the man's face showed a slight smirk as he spoke, "I've heard that the class that ignores school rules the most in the entire school is Class One. It's almost time for class, yet you're still standing here. Are you trying to prove something?"

Hearing these words, Ye Xiao felt rather annoyed. Was this guy looking for trouble?
