"So that's how it is…"

Elder Luo took Chen Xiaobei inside as he said, "A few days ago, Puti received a mission, then she locked herself in the practice room. The door was closed and no one was allowed to go in. These few days, I have never seen her leaving the room and I'm afraid that she might be in trouble if this goes on!"

"What mission did she receive?" Chen Xiaobei frowned.

"I'm not sure either. I only know that if the mission is successful, Puti will become the official chief inspector of Six Doors!"

Elder Luo turned around and said, "But at the same time, there will be other people competing with Puti. If she loses, she will lose the opportunity to become the chief inspector forever. After all, with such a position, as long there's no major mistakes, they won't replace anyone!"

"Alright, I understand. Leave this to me, don't you worry about it." Chen Xiaobei replied solemnly.

Elder Luo nodded his head and said, "This girl of mine, Puti, has always been stubborn since she was young and I think that only you can persuade her!"

Outside the practice room.

After knocking for almost half a day, it was still quiet from the inside. Elder Luo frowned even more, expressing his worry.

"Grandpa, you go ahead first. I'll have a chat with Puti." Chen Xiaobei said.

"Okay, it's all on you then." Elder Luo nodded his head and slowly left the place.

After Elder Luo left, Chen Xiaobei directly extracted a silver needle from the Treasure Chest and went to pick the door's lock.

*Kcha!*

He had skills at picking locks and the kind of door Chen Xiaobei unlocked was not difficult, as it was unlocked right away.

Behind the door was an octagonal-shaped room. The interior layout fitted into the surrounding eight trigrams and it seemed that there was a small and quiet hidden spot, which was conducive for practice.

Puti was not there and instead, she was daydreaming at the corner of the room. Her beautiful complexion was pale. Her eyes were crystal clear but looked empty. Her sexy lips were parched, which was obviously the result of long periods of not drinking enough water. Who would have thought that the ice queen would be reduced to such a state.

Feeling a pang in his heart, Chen Xiaobei rushed over to her immediately.

As he strode over, Luo Puti snapped out of her daze and asked, "How did you come in?"

"As long as I'm thinking about my wife, there's nothing that can stop me! It's only a simple door, it's nothing at all!"

Chen Xiaobei cheerfully sat beside Luo Puti.

"Who are you calling your wife!"

Luo Puti glared at Chen Xiaobei and said, "Get out, I don't have the strength to be chattering with you now!"

"I'm not here to talk, I am here to help my wife solve her problem!" There was no way Chen would leave her alone. Instead, he moved over and leaned Luo Puti's shoulders against the wall.

"Solving my problem, yea right! Do you think that you're god? No one can solve this problem! Get out! I need silence…"

Luo Puti raised her hands and pushed Chen Xiaobei but he did not budge.

"You don't believe me? How about making a bet with me?" Chen Xiaobei smiled. "If I win, you will admit that you are my wife! If I lose, I will immediately go out and not disturb you again!"

Luo Puti was stunned momentarily. She then refused, "I don't gamble and there's no way you can win!"

"If I can't possibly win then why won't you gamble?"

Chen Xiaobei raised an eyebrow and smiled. "Oh! I understand! You're definitely afraid of not seeing me again! Right?"

"Right... Right, my ass!" Luo Puti flushed bright red and said in a huff, "I'll make a bet with you then since you'll be losing!"

"Come then, my wife! Tell me your problem!" Chen Xiaobei cheerfully said.

"I'm not your wife! If you talk nonsense again, believe or not, I will fight you!"

Luo Puti took a look at Chen Xiaobei and moodily said, "The higher-ups have given me a mission and the person who completes it will become the next chief inspector of Six Doors!"

"You also know that, although I have made contributions my qualifications are not enough and it's difficult to convince the public. If I can complete this mission, my reputation would rise and the people who disobey me would obediently keep their mouth shut."

"However! This time, there are many others running for this position! Among them, I'm the weakest in strength!"

"Tomorrow is when we depart! If my cultivation can't be improved, it basically means I'm out!"

There were obvious signs of desperations in Luo Puti's eyes. She had been working hard for a long time but there was no way to get over this hurdle. Martial arts training was like climbing a stairway to heaven! The realm of True Nirvana was another gap that most people could not overcome! The gap between each level was so huge that it was comparable to heaven and earth! Even though she said that there was a difference in combat power but there was also a difficulty in breaking through cultivation. Excluding Luo Puti, there were many countless people in this world that were stuck at the bottom of True Nirvana and they could not break through it. There was not much else to say about the degree of difficulty!

Chen Xiaobei smiled gently and said, "Isn't that a just a breakthrough? What's the big deal? Leave it to me!"

"What?"

Luo Puti was stunned but couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "Who do you think you are? You don't know how difficult it is to break through cultivation."

 "It's not difficult to me." Chen Xiaobei said with a shrug.

"One of these days, you'll die if you keep acting so tough!" Luo Puti said furiously. 

She was well-recognized as a genius in Dragon City for her incredible training and she did not have all the strength to break through, and this fellow, Chen Xiaobei, dared to say that it was not difficult at all! It was easier said than done!

"It's not difficult to improve your combat power. As long as your Spiritual Qi is sufficient, anyone can improve. The only difference is that people with better skills will improve quickly and those lower skills will improve slowly!"

Luo Puti responded, "However, breaking through cultivation is completely different! I have the spirit of ice which was passed down from my family and I've never lacked Spiritual Qi. But I have been trying for nearly two years and there's still no way to break through!"

"That's because breaking through cultivation requires a special opportunity! A lucky chance! Just like a door, you must find the corresponding key to open! Do you understand?"

The way Puti got agitated, it was clear that she had been trying her best to break through her limit. However, the cruel reality of life had only made her fall into a state of despair!

"Silly girl."

Chen Xiaobei raised his hand and gently caressed Luo Puti's small head, then said, "It's naturally difficult to find the key to an unknown door! But as long as you can find a universal key, you won't be hindered by any doors anymore!"

"A universal key? Are you kidding me? Here in this real world, how can there be such a lucky thing?" Luo Puti gave a weak smile.

Even though the man stroking her head who was three years younger than herself , he gave Luo Puti a sense of security. Her intuition told her that Chen Xiaobei was not lying.

"Of course there is!" Chen Xiaobei grinned and said, "I'm your universal key!"
