Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO-Chapter 755 - Sneak Attack 25th Update

Chapter 755: Chapter 755: Sneak Attack [25th Update] Chapter 755: Chapter 755: Sneak Attack [25th Update] Li Pengcheng returned to his room and started cultivating. It was already dark when he woke up. He went out and approached Li Xiaoyao’s room, intending to thank him, but after knocking for a while, there was no response.

“Still cultivating?” Li Pengcheng thought, and thus returned to his room.

After a long wait, he checked the time—it was already ten o’clock at night.

A vague unease took hold of him, recalling how Li Chong and Li Sangsang had cornered him at the training ground. He knew they would not let the incident pass so easily.

“Could something have happened?” The thought sprung up in his mind, and Li Pengcheng could no longer sit still. He stood up, pushed the door open, and hurried toward the training ground.

Although he was aware that even if Li Xiaoyao was indeed cornered, there wasn’t much he could do to help, he still felt compelled to go.

At the training ground, Li Yan stood at the entrance with his arms crossed, waiting for Li Xiaoyao to emerge.

...

The few onlookers who saw them arrive immediately spread the word. In no time at all, the number of clan members watching had grown substantially, packing the small corridor.

“Bang!”

Li Xiaoyao and his opponent’s fists and palms collided, both retreating several steps.

Fifty minutes. This time, he had managed to hold on for fifty minutes without defeat.

Although he was still being pressed hard, Li Xiaoyao already knew his shortcomings and deliberately corrected them. In no short time, he was not likely to fall.

His continuous expenditure of spiritual power, combined with high-intensity combat and the utilization of spiritual power, unexpectedly led to signs of a breakthrough in his recently advanced cultivation level.

This truly was an unexpected joy.

Li Xiaoyao forcefully suppressed his excitement and let his Nascent Soul madly absorb spiritual energy, his body not stopping for a moment as he continued to charge and battle fiercely.

Waves of absorption emanated from the Nascent Soul, the surrounding spiritual energy turning into fierce winds, howling as they surged into Li Xiaoyao’s body.

“What is this?”

“What’s happening?”

The clan members were shocked and puzzled, unclear about what was transpiring.

Li Yan and Li Sangsang watched the developments in the training ground with faces mixed with shock and suspicion, frowning as they vaguely guessed what was going on.

“Is he about to have a breakthrough?” Li Yan murmured the speculation, yet he found it somewhat incredible.

At that moment, a figure approached from another direction; it was none other than Li Qinglong, who had previously tried to dissuade Li Xiaoyao but ended up being scolded away.

Li Qinglong watched Li Xiaoyao, who was battling on one side and frantically gathering spiritual energy on the other, a flicker of surprise in his eyes.

“Is this for real? Can he break through under these conditions?”

“Boom!”

Li Xiaoyao still couldn’t defeat the perfect mirror image with virtually no flaws. A moment of carelessness led to an exposed weakness, and he was immediately kicked and sent flying.

Li Xiaoyao grimaced as he was kicked out of the training ground—it truly hurt.

Upon leaving the training ground, he sensed something amiss. Turning his head, he saw that the entrance was crowded with dozens of people, among whom he recognized a few faces.

Li Xiaoyao let out a cold laugh and didn’t concern himself with them. The most important thing was to break through quickly. This kind of opportunity was fleeting—if he didn’t seize it now, who knew how long he would have to wait before the next chance for a breakthrough.

Li Yan instantly discerned his intention, naturally not willing to let Li Xiaoyao make a breakthrough just like that.

Destroying the genius of the Li Family from Xuan Country would certainly be extremely satisfying.

Li Yan’s movements were agile, his figure a blur, as he instantly appeared in front of Li Xiaoyao with a kick carrying the sound of tearing wind aimed at Li Xiaoyao’s head.

“Hmm?” Just as he had sat down cross-legged, ready to close his eyes and focus on his breakthrough, Li Xiaoyao sensed this power and, driven by instinctive danger, leaned back subconsciously, narrowly avoiding the kick.

In the eyes of his clanmates, Li Yan’s attack had come without any warning and he had not held back in the slightest, yet Li Xiaoyao was able to react swiftly under such circumstances.

This exquisite reaction speed was astonishing.

And Li Yan’s sneak attack also made the clansmen of the Ancient Li Family feel a hint of contempt.

Li Xiaoyao quickly stood up from the ground, his aura fluctuating wildly, a sign that a breakthrough was imminent. He looked at Li Yan with cold eyes and said icily, “Are you sick?”

“Quick reflexes.” Li Yan smiled in mild surprise, dusting off the nonexistent dust on his shoulder, and said, “You hit my friends, I’m taking revenge for them, do you see a problem with that?”

“So you resort to sneak attacks?” Li Xiaoyao said with sarcasm.

Li Yan didn’t feel any shame about the sneak attack and declared, “Teaching you a lesson, even through despicable means, can highlight one’s nobility.”

“Amazing how you can make shamelessness sound so fresh and refined, the Ancient Li Family really isn’t short of talents.” This remark was quite harsh, as the sneak attack was Li Yan’s own action, but Li Xiaoyao linked him with the entire Ancient Li Family.

A cold glint flashed in Li Yan’s eyes, “Just like the rumors, sharp-tongued and quick-witted. Wait until I’ve trampled you underfoot, then we’ll see if you can still talk to me like this.”

“Stop!”

Li Pengcheng quickly ran out from the crowd, hurried to Li Xiaoyao’s side, and said, “You go break through; leave him to me.”

Li Xiaoyao looked at him oddly, feeling that Li Pengcheng’s attitude toward him had changed quite a bit. Moreover, it was clear that Li Pengcheng was no match for Li Yan, but it wasn’t easy for Li Xiaoyao to say it outright.

After all, taking such a risk to step forward, Li Xiaoyao felt quite conflicted.

“Be careful.” Li Xiaoyao patted his shoulder, stepped back several meters, sat down cross-legged, adjusted his breathing for a while, and entered the cultivation state.

Li Xiaoyao was not worried that Li Yan would interrupt him during his breakthrough; he still remembered the last time he broke through when his body underwent some kind of mutational change during the process.

A dark shadow holding a Broken Sword stood guard over him like a Guardian God.

This was something Li Yunchen had told him about after the fact.

Besides, even without such strange phenomena, Li Xiaoyao would rather risk not breaking through than let a sneak like Li Yan injure him.

But if it really came to that, Li Yan’s outcome might not be as simple as just getting a lesson.

“Breathe~ In~”

With each even and rhythmic breath, a stream of rich Spiritual Energy entered through his nose and mouth, and the aura he exuded rose rapidly at a terrifying speed.

Li Yan watched Li Xiaoyao entering a state of breakthrough, withdrew his gaze, and turned to the Li Pengcheng standing before him, uttering disdainfully, “Get lost!”

Li Pengcheng drew his Red Tassel Spear, gripping it with both hands, the spearhead trembling slightly as he whisked out a spear blossom.

With the spear pointing to the ground, Li Pengcheng’s aura surged out, his voice deep and booming, “If you want to hurt him, you’ll have to get past me first!”

Li Yan narrowed his eyes, his right hand emerging from his sleeves, slowly clenched a fist, almost bursting the air around him, and spat out, “Foolish!”
