Chapter 258: Just Like Her Body

Baili Xia knew what he was thinking, but she didn’t care.

After all, Brother’s perception of her was not going to change anytime soon.

She was not inclined to put effort into something that couldn’t be changed.

“I want to become stronger.” She looked at Mu Xiaoyao and said resolutely.

“Brother, can you train me?

I want to be like Leng Yu, with good physical condition and proficiency.”

“You?” Mu Xiaoyao cast her a glance.

It wasn’t that he deliberately wanted to discourage her, but he simply wasn’t optimistic.

“You know how many years Leng Yu has been trained by Uncle?

You know how good her physical constitution is?”

“With you, even if I gave you thirty years, you wouldn’t be able to reach her current level.”

“I don’t care, I don’t necessarily have to beat her, I just want to be stronger.”

She walked over to him, looked at him, her gaze still sincere.

“I just want to be stronger, strong enough to not drag down Uncle.”

Mu Xiaoyao remained silent, when she said “not to drag down Uncle” sincerely, but it left a bitter taste in his mouth.

His relationship with Uncle seemed strange.

Was it really just the relationship between an uncle and a niece?

Why did it seem odd the more he looked at it?

“Brother, I did help you just now, didn’t I?”

“Are you sure you want to accept my training?”

Mu Xiaoyao fell silent for a moment, then finally lifted his eyebrows to look at her.

Uncle had already told him to train Baili Xia.

Not for her to become strong or anything like that, but because the competition amongst the Eight Great Clans was coming up next month.

There were various competition items, which she can’t possibly master all.

But at least they could select some items that she could perform decently in, and teach her those.

Otherwise, it would be really embarrassing for the Mu family if she performed poorly on stage.

Seeing the softening expression on his face, a glimmer of joy flashed in Baili Xia’s eyes.

She nodded vigorously, saying, “Sure, I’m definitely sure!

As long as Brother is willing to teach, I will definitely study hard.”

She had personally witnessed Brother’s martial arts skills.

His punches were swift, accurate and ruthless, and his fists carried a weight that was difficult to counter.

And that kick which effortlessly sent the heavy carved wooden door flying.

Such skill, she would be content if she could even learn a fraction of it.

If she could learn even a fraction of Brother’s skill, she wouldn’t be bullied when she went back to school.

Those girls, who were all weak, who would dare to bully her then?

Baili Xia got more and more excited as she thought about it, unable to wait to start training with Mu Xiaoyao.

“Don’t be too optimistic about everything.” Mu Xiaoyao glanced at her.

There was a kind of unique brilliance on her little face, he couldn’t bear to dampen her enthusiasm.

But again, things needed to be made clear in advance.

Otherwise, she might blame him when she couldn’t achieve her goals.

“Training with me will require a lot of hard work.

You should consider it.”

“I’m not afraid of hardship.” It was just a bit of hardship, she could endure it.

Although, she really was afraid of pain, but who said no pain, no gain?

Mu Xiaoyao ignored her, and still said casually, “Training is not something that happens overnight, it’s a very long process.”

“I know that, my thoughts are indeed very beautiful, but I can see the realities.”

The reality was that her physical condition was even worse than the two young ladies of the Mu family, let alone Leng Yu.

But she had confidence that as long as she pursued long-term training, she wouldn’t be inferior to anyone else.

She would definitely become stronger!
