C47 Decision

Four months passed by after Kyle broke through the Xiantian Realm in his Dantian...

Kyle and Feng Yexue were currently sparring inside the formation when Kyle suddenly said:

"Xue'er, are you really gonna try to challenge that statue again? You know what happened the last time you did." Kyle told Feng Yexue with a worried expression.

Four months of living together in the Ancient Pagoda made them closer with each other.

They were still only friends, yet the both of them knew, there was something in between them.

In these past few months, Feng Yexue did not dare to challenge the Child Dragon again; due to the last circumstance that happened to her when she lost her last fight.

At first... She wondered why the child dragon did that to her since she had already been challenging him for a couple of months already, yet he did not; even once, laid a hand on her after their battle was over.

But the thoughts of someone like the child dragon was not something she could comprehend, so she did not dare to fight him carelessly again.

Who knows... The child dragon might do something more wicked, the next time she loses against him, so she decided to only challenge him again, once she could already see herself winning against him.

The training with Kyle wasn't all for naught since having someone to spar to, is a lot much better than training alone.

However, in these past few days. Kyle had noticed Feng Yexue's strange behavior.

Feng Yexue was getting gloomy every single day passed in this month since the deadline of her little sister's lifespan was getting nearer, so she told Kyle, that she decided to challenge the child dragon again.

Feng Yexue explained her story and situation to him, on why he came to this Ancient Pagoda.

This is how he had learned of her story and had learned about her motives for fighting the child dragon.

"I know, but I can't just give up on my little sister; she's the only family I have left" Feng Yexue replied with a sad expression while parrying the punch of Kyle during their daily sparring.

"You might be right, but you can't challenge him recklessly, especially in your current condition. Can't you see? Even I am having the advantage against you due to your lack of focus." Kyle said as he suddenly arrived in front of her and punched her defenseless.

She got blow away because of her stupid actions.

She had been worried all day long; due to the pressure of defeating the child dragon with the current time limit.

Her confidence in battling the child dragon had lowered down because of the past actions that the child dragon had done to her.

So she got careless during their sparring and got blown away by Kyle's punch.

When she recovered, she got pissed!

"Don't get cocky too soon, you can only say that since it's not your sister who is dying!"

Feng Yexue was angry at him since she felt that she was getting undermined.

The stress due to the time limit of her sister, adding up to the humiliation of getting blown away from someone who had lower cultivation than her; got inside her head, so she went out of control and acted erratically.

She activated her Lightning laws and it coated her full body while her hair spiked from the charge of the lightning.

She got angry and got pissed off.

Seeing this did not anger Kyle.

Four months together with her inside the Ancient Pagoda made him able to know her true personality.

The charming Feng Yexue who constantly teased him, yet in reality... She was like an innocent bud who always talked about her sister and someone who was kind enough to lower herself down, just to make sure he won't have any identity crisis problems. Like having low self-esteem, etc.

The past few months together with Feng Yexue had told him a lot about herself in her stories, so he knew why she is acting incomprehensibly right now; due to her sister's condition.

So he knows she was just throwing a tantrum, hence he punched her to make her realize of her actions.

However, she took it in a wrong manner and got pissed.

Such as, when she went all out and started to attack him.

He prepared himself since an all-out Feng Yexue was very dangerous.

But he wasn't fazed by her.

Kyle might have been able to hit her a solid punch due to her lack of focus, but that wasn't all of it.

In these past few months, Kyle's strength had increased a lot.

(FLASHBACK)

One month after Kyle broke through the Xiantian Realm with his Dantian...

Both of them are training with their own nature elements a few meters away from each other when Kyle suddenly said:

"Yexue lets spar."

Both of them wanted to try out their new discoveries about the laws and natural elements, so Feng Yexue agreed.

After a couple of blows... Kyle decided to take his training a little further and told her:

"I need to try something out... Is it all right with you?" Kyle asked for permission.

He noticed that Feng Yexue was someone way above his speed, so he wanted to use her to train his KenbunShoku.

He had watched on how Luffy evolved his Haki during the fight with Katakuri, so he wanted to recreate the situation, but against Feng Yexue.

She was, even better since she was a lot faster and stronger than himself, making his KenbunShoku evolved much faster; but the only problem was if she wanted to waste her time training him as a fool since he knew the training regime could look idiotic.

Fortunately... She wasn't against it and went with the flow.

"Ok, let's start..." He said while he ripped cloth from his shirt and used it to cover his eyes.

"What do you intend to do? Train your Minute Subtetly?" The way to train the Minute Subtetly was something similar, so she asked him.

"No... But it is kinda similar. Just attack me normally."

This got her interest piqued, so she did what she was told and attacked him.

Kyle had already mastered the 2nd stage in his KenbunShoku, so he could already sense her attack, even with his eyes covered by a cloth.

So he successfully evaded her punches.

"Faster!" He demanded.

Seeing him dodge her attacks without looking, impressed her, so she did not refute and attack faster.

It wasn't her full speed, but it was still enough to decimate the speed of some normal 3rd stage Xiantian Cultivators, yet it still wasn't enough and all her attacks got successfully evaded by him.

"Even faster!" Kyle demanded again.

His cocky tone irked her a little bit, so she went all out with her next attack.

No techniques or laws, but even her basic all-out speed was very fast, so her next attack finally hit him and he was blown away by the impact.

This made Feng Yexue laugh out loud while she thought "haha, let's see you demand more! Hmmmph."

Kyle who was blown away recovered and took his blinds off.

He might have been blown away, but there weren't any serious damages that he suffered, so he immediately returned to where Feng Yexue is standing.

"Yeah, this could help me improve a lot. Let's do it again" Kyle went back and asked her to train with him again.

Feng Yexue had no problems punching a punching bag, so she agreed despite wasting some of her training time.

She was also curious about his move, so she wanted to see the result of this training, hence she agreed.

And this training regime continued for a week.

(PRESENT)

*zhiiiing* (sfx on seeing the future)

Kyle had a glimpse of Feng Yexue flickering next to him and punching him, so he reacted quickly before she even made her move.

Suddenly, she arrived next to him, but Kyle had already seen this with his Haki; so he successfully dodged to sides and avoided the pathway where her strike would supposedly land.

This made her lightning-fast strike miss and hit the empty air.

Kyle did not just stood by and watched her while she missed her attack, no... He spanned around and tapped her slender right arm that she used in attacking him while it was still in mid-air.

He tapped it for a few times, then he launched an attack on her right arm.

Feng Yexue tried to block his attack with her right hand, but her hand failed to move.

She immediately decided to use her other hand, but it was too late and Kyle's punch had already hit her.

This threw her away for a few meters, but the collision did not cause any damages to her body.

The tap obviously... Wasn't just any normal tap.

This was a new move that he created during this past few months.

He generated vibration and directed it on her arm using his finger.

This vibration entered the pores in her arm and went to her arm's nervous system, making her attacking arm paralyze for a few minutes depending on the person's body or strength.

This was one of the few moves that he had learned after breaking through the Xiantian Realm with his Dantian.

He called this new move as *Tremor Fist*

This move was similar to the Hyuuga's *Gentle Fist*, but of course, it was widely different since first, he doesn't have any chakra or any byakugan.

He used his tremor/vibration powers to cause a dysfunction inside the person's nervous system depending on the area that he had touched.

In combination with his Haki and his newly discovered skill *Echolocation* he could find the correct spot to paralyze the enemy.

This could only cause a slight paralyzation and the duration differs to the enemies body, but it was already useful in a close quarters battle.

The only downside of this skill is that he needs to be in close contact with the enemy for this skill to activate.

But paralyzing one of Feng Yexue's arms was enough for him since he only wanted to create an opening to calm her.

"Calm yourself Xue'er, fighting won't help you achieve your goal in defeating that child dragon." Kyle berated him and let her recover.

Feeling that one of her arms got paralyzed, she recovered for a bit while she re-organizes her thoughts.

She heard Kyle's words, so she calmed herself.

He was right... Getting angry and pissed off won't help her in defeating the child dragon.

She realized her past actions were unnecessary, so she said "yeah, I'm alright now... I'm sorry."

She said with a sad expression. She looked at her arm that was paralyzed, but she wasn't worried about it.

She had already known of this move, so she knows the vibrations inside her arm will only last for a few seconds.

It was only due to her anger that made her forgot about Kyle's prowess for the meantime.

"You don't have to get angry about it, but you're correct. We need to find a solution for your little sister." Kyle went to her and hold her slender arms that got paralyzed.

He touched it and the vibrations inside got sucked out.

He then combed her hair with his hands carefully while saying: "ok...I got it, Let's fight him together."

This surprised Feng Yexue and shook her heart.

She had never thought of asking Kyle since this was not his problem, to begin with.

And during her stay in the Ancient Pagoda, those geniuses who challenged the child dragon died in miserable, so she did not mention any help from him since he did not want Kyle to suffer a mishap.

During their time together, Kyle had inserted himself unknowingly inside her heart, so she doesn't want anything bad to happen to him.

She doesn't know what she was feeling since she was inexperienced to these kinds of things, but she had the tiniest bit of clue since she was already old enough and had already received a lot of marriage invites in the past.

But things about love was something new for her since the only person that she ever loved and cared about was her sister.

So she suddenly scowled and said: "No! You can't do that... Stop meddling in my business!" And she stomped away from him.

Kyle did not give her any chance and took her in his arms and said: "Nope! I can't do that. If you insist on fighting the child dragon, then I will fight with you," he said that with a resolute resolve in his eyes.

Kyle knew this day would come.

If it only were up to him. He would've stayed in this place for decades before he would even dare to try to fight that scary child dragon.

But as time passed... She had been like the teacher who cared for the ignorant kid and taught him a lot in the ways of cultivating.

Her constant teasing made his old mentality broke down.

Her domineering stature suited his tastes.

Her caring nature made him; who was always on guard against strangers felt familiar.

And her direct feminine personality slowly wormed into his detached heart.

All of this made him completely fell in love with her.

Well... He doesn't really know if what he felt was love since he had never known about a man and woman's love before, but he definitely felt something for her and doesn't want her to encounter dangers alone.

So when he knew that she was in a hurry to defeat the dragon, Kyle knew there would be a day that he would make a decision to risk his life.

Since he fell for her, there's no way that he would leave her alone if she decided to endanger her life and just watch at the sidelines.

No matter how he decided to act smart and avoid dangers, there's no way he could let her woman be, so now that Feng Yexue had decided to battle the child dragon again.

He did not hesitate and volunteered his help.

Feng Yexue who was now in his arms gazed at his eyes and asked while whimpering:

"Why? Why would you risk your life? I already told you that the child dragon had already killed a lot of youths who came here before. Why do you still ignore my warning even now?"

She asked while waiting for his reply as if trying to confirm something.

Kyle lifted his hands and combed her hair to her ear that was in disarray, due to the sudden grab by him and he said with sincerity:

"Of course' I'll help you... because I -- have fallen for you."

then he suddenly kissed her luscious lips, but this time... it wasn't a forced kiss due to some aphrodisiac or poison.

This kiss was filled with love and sincerity and both of them shared their first... true kiss.
