“Thank you both.” Nana nodded toward Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng.
They wouldn’t let her stay in the cultivation room since there was a guest room in the house. Lan Xiao was an orphan since he was little and he grew up in an orphanage all alone. Nan Cheng had parents who would drop by for a couple of days once in a while and they had their only guest room prepared for them. Naturally, they gave that to Nana.
“Esteemed One, could I observe at the side while you teach Xuanyu?” Nan Cheng probed. She was still a stranger, after all, so Nan Cheng was somewhat worried.
“Sure.” Nana nodded.
Nan Cheng heaved a sigh of relief secretly. “It shouldn’t be an issue since she agreed to let me observe at the side, right?”
The guest room was replaced with a brand new quilt, and Nan Cheng asked Nana to rest first before she took her son back into her room.
“Xuanyu, when you start learning from Teacher Nana, you must tell Mommy what you have learned, alright? If you find something off, you must tell Mommy too, okay?” Nan Cheng warned her son softly.
“Oh, alright. Mommy, could you try to catch me?” Lan Xuanyu laughed all of a sudden.
“Catch you for what?” Nan Cheng was taken aback.
Lan Xuanyu giggled. “I’ll let you kiss me if you caught me.”
Seeing how adorable her son looked, Nan Cheng chuckled and raised her arm in an attempt to catch him saying, “I’ll kiss you till you’re sick of it, I’ll kiss you a hundred times before I let you go.”
Although that was what she said, she caught nothing in her hands, Lan Xuanyu leaped backwards and dodged.
Nan Cheng smiled and pounced toward her son with open arms. Lan Xuanyu squatted and there was a sudden force from his feet. He leaped from a strange angle and it was at a spot where Nan Cheng could almost grab him.
“Eh?” Nan Cheng wasn’t a Battle Spirit Master but she was still a Six Spirit Rings cultivator and she was physically stronger than ordinary people. The first time she missed was excusable but her second attempt had shocked her.
She then turned around, her speed had clearly increased and she even moved her shoulders to make a feint towards the side as she charged at him. Lan Xuanyu then moved his feet and just as he was about to get caught by her hands, he made a clever turn and slipped past Nan Cheng, making her catch the air once again.
“Haha, you didn’t catch me. You have to let me kiss you if you can’t catch me, Mommy.” After dodging from his mother’s “claws” thrice consecutively, Lan Xuanyu was elated.
Nan Cheng didn’t continue and merely looked at her son in astonishment. Although she wasn’t sure how Lan Xuanyu did that, it was clearly a complicated dodge and it seemed to have some special rhythm to it. “Xuanyu, who did you learn this method of from?”
“Teacher Nana!” Lan Xuanyu answered with a smile. “Didn’t you ask me to tell you everything I’ve learned?”
“Teacher Nana? When? Why didn’t I know about it?” Nan Cheng was stunned.
Lan Xuanyu then said, “I learned from her in my dream. Oh, no, Teacher Nana said that it’s in my consciousness.”
Nan Cheng was flabbergasted and quickly asked further. Lan Xuanyu then told her about the footwork that Nana taught him during their return journey.
After listening to him, the shock in Nan Cheng’s heart was as expected.
“Just how strong must one’s Spiritual Power be in order to be able to invade the consciousness of others without hurting the other party and even conduct lessons? Even someone from the Spirit Sea realm would not be able to achieve this.” It was possible that she was of a higher rank than she thought, she was probably in a realm that she couldn’t reach.
This Nana’s power was simply too strong.
Ever since Nan Cheng reached rank six, her Spirit Power increased at a tortoise’s speed no matter how hard she trained. She knew that her innate skill could only reach this level but she was a Spirit Emperor after all, she was quite knowledgeable about Spirit Masters.
“Xuanyu, can we start?” Nana’s melodic voice came from the door.
Nan Cheng walked over to open the door and when she saw that stunning face again, she had a sudden inexplicable sense of reverence. She was now certain that Nana didn’t have any ill intentions toward Lan Xuanyu as it was simply too easy for this powerful woman to deal with their family if she wanted to do anything.
One must know that a Titled Douluo rank had quite a bit of immunity from prosecution just like the aristocrats in ancient times. As long as it wasn’t any heinous crime, the Federation usually had very little restrictions on them.
“Esteemed One.” Nan Cheng bowed respectfully toward Nana.
Nana said, “Don’t worry, I will teach him well. You can stay at the side and listen; your Spirit is an ice type so I can draw on your experience.
Nan Cheng nodded quickly. Although she didn’t have a thirst for strength, she felt more at ease being with her son.
They entered the cultivation room and closed the door.
Nana looked at Lan Xuanyu and smiled. “Xuanyu, the most important for your age group is to build a strong foundation so, let’s start with some simple cultivation. Today, we shall do some Pressure-resistant exercises, alright?”
“Pressure-resistant exercises? What’s that Teacher Nana?” Lan Xuanyu asked curiously.
Nana then said, “Teacher will be giving you a bit of pressure later and you’ll use your Spirit Power to resist it, that’s what it is. It will be beneficial for your Spirit Power and health. For a Spirit Master, a suitable amount of pressure could stimulate one’s hidden capabilities.”
“Oh, alright.” Lan Xuanyu didn’t really understand but Nan Cheng who was standing at the side got anxious.
“Ye Feng placed some pressure on Lan Xuanyu before and that caused his spirit to undergo some changes right? But would the pressure hurt him?” She thought.
Nana probably felt her worrying and said, “I will control it well. You can do it together with him too.” She raised her left hand as she spoke. Everything seemed to be blurry before Nan Cheng and she was moved to a different position before she even realized it.
At first, Nan Cheng and Lan Xuanyu were standing together but Nana was now standing in between them.
“What ability is this?” She thought and while she was in shock, a strange aura was released from Nana. Nan Cheng only felt a formless pressure coming forth, it wasn’t too strong but it needed a spirit to resist it.
She quickly released her spirit and the temperature in the air seemed to drop. Four yellow and two purple Spirit Rings rose beneath her feet and at the same time, Nan Cheng immediately felt that the pressure on her was gradually increasing.
She looked at Nana and she was merely standing there. Her eyes were on Lan Xuanyu and she didn’t look at her at all despite the oppressive pressure in the air being present.
Nan Cheng suddenly had a feeling that she still didn’t know much about the Spirit Masters’ world!
Nana would only have a smile on her face when she looked at Lan Xuanyu and he also felt the pressure from her. The pressure came from all of his sides and it was as if it was squeezing his body. He released his Spirit Power just like what Nana instructed and ran it according to the Mysterious Heaven skill route.
The pressure increased slowly and under this pressure, Lan Xuanyu could feel that his Spirit Power was clearly operating faster but it was also being consumed continuously.
“Feel the changes in your body. Work hard to control the Spirit Power, don’t let it run around and move it according to its original trajectory. You may now release your spirit.” Nana’s voice resounded.
