Strongest Ruler

Strongest Ruler
The First Trial of the Sword Flower Sect II



The ranking list is a large wooden board, there are many rune writings that allow the supervisor to know many points that are successfully obtained by the examinees.


Right now, the three of them were struck by one name they were unfamiliar with. Even the surname of that person did not belong to one of the great families in Yangfeng Empire.


"The Xiao family? Have you ever heard of it?" An elder of the overseers asked the other two.


The two of them shook their heads, none of them had ever heard of Xiao's surname.


"I think he's from ordinary society." One of the elders voiced his opinion.


"Hmm, I guess that's a reasonable reason, but it's also impossible for ordinary people to be able to defeat many members of a large family."


"We'll wait until this exam is over and we'll know who that person is." Answer but another supervisor.


The other two nodded and went back to supervise the exam.

Right now, still in the dense forest with many tall trees covering the sunlight, a young man was sitting in front of the fireplace while turning the meat stuck in the wooden branch.


"Hmm, this is my first time eating wolf meat. I hope it doesn't taste much different compared to other animals' meat."


Xiao Fan sat staring at the almost cooked roast meat with his mouth full of saliva.


But before Xiao Fan could eat the meat, he heard someone's footsteps from the bushes behind him.


Xiao Fan turned his head and prepared himself, being aware that it was behind him was a ferocious beast.


But after the figure came out, it was a girl with a body full of wounds. There were many sword incisions and the girl's face was very pale.


When the gazes of his eyes and Xiao Fan looked at each other, he slightly put on a hostile intent but in the next second, he fell unconscious.


Thump!!


Seeing the beautiful girl fall to the ground unconscious, Xiao Fan slightly tilted his head.


"Is that a trap?"


But after Xiao Fan walked closer, he could confirm that the girl had completely fainted.


"Haaa, why is there such a problem when I want to eat something." Xiao Fan said annoyedly, he lifted up the girl's body and moved her near the fireplace.


"Eh... g–this girl, she was poisoned!.."


Xiao Fan widened his eyes in surprise, his knowledge of herbs, poisons, and various other knowledge was extremely broad.


He could sense that there was poison in one's body just by looking at the skin color and the change in heart rate and also the flow of his Qi.


"Hmmm.."


Xiao Fan placed the girl's body on the ground, he laid her down in a supine position then took off the girl's entire outfit.


Her skin was so white, smooth, and also supple right when Xiao Fan undressed.


He was a little embarrassed to see that, as this was the first time that Xiao Fan had seen the body of a girl of his age, he was extremely embarrassed about it.


"No, I need to focus.. This girl's life is more important."


Xiao Fan patted both of his cheeks, he began to circulate Qi throughout the Meridian lines in both of his hands.


"Hmm, it turns out that this is poison from the killer fire snake. Although some people don't know how to neutralize it, but I don't."


Xiao Fan laughed, indeed for some healers, to cure such a poison was extremely difficult for them.


Xiao Fan was so lucky he found a book on herbs in his grandfather's room. Thanks to that as well, Xiao Fan knew about how to neutralize his poison.


Xiao Fan took off the robe he was wearing to cover the girl's body, currently wearing only a brown trousers.


He walked away leaving the girl in search of herbs that he would use to cure her.


He spurred his speed and shot to the place where the lake was.


The Danu was approximately 2 miles away from the exact Xiao Fan grilling the meat, so it would take quite a long time to get there.


Just as Xiao Fan was running towards the place where the Lake was, a group of six people suddenly came out from the bushes to block his path.


"Hahaha, brother, it turns out that there are indeed people who pass this path." A 19-year-old man laughed loudly.


Meanwhile, beside him, a beautiful woman with long purple hair looked at Xiao Fan with a cold gaze.


"Hmph, tell me, did you see a woman with a body full of wounds through this path." The woman asked in a cold voice.


Xiao Fan did not reply, he looked at the faces of all those people at a glance and estimated that they were all at the fifth level of the realm of improvement. And for the woman, she was at the final sixth level of friendly repair.


Compared to Xiao Fan, they were clearly superior, let alone their large numbers. Xiao Fan was not their opponent at all.


"Hmm, a woman? I think I saw it through there." Xiao Fan replied indifferently, pointing towards the North.


It was clearly the opposite of the scarred girl it was in.


"Hmm, just be careful if what you say is a lie. We'll definitely kill you."


Even after Xiao Fan heard the threat, he was not afraid at all. After seeing the entourage leave, Xiao Fan rushed towards the lake to look for the herbs he needed.


True as Xiao Fan had expected, the herbs he was looking for were indeed there.


"I'm lucky..."


Xiao Fan quickly picked up the two herbs and rushed back.


He was afraid that the group of people knew that what he said was a lie and they tried to find him.


If that were to happen, Xiao Fan would definitely not survive.


After a few minutes, Xiao Fan arrived at the place where the girl's body was lying.


"Great, the poison has already begun to spread."


When Xiao Fan saw that a stream of red-colored energy was visible in the girl's veins and Meridians, he was shocked.


Xiao Fan without delaying any more time began to put the two herbs into his mouth.


He chewed on the herb until it softly then used his hand to lift the nape of the girl.


Xiao Fan with his mouth full of bitter herbs began to kiss the girl to move the herbs inside her mouth into the girl's mouth.


"Bwelh.. It's too bitter."


Xiao Fan took out a bit of fresh water and used it to clean his mouth that was filled with herbs.


Meanwhile, when Xiao Fan was busy cleaning his mouth. The herbs he had managed to make had completely neutralized the poison within the girl.


Until a few minutes passed, the girl slowly opened her eyes.


His head was still a little dizzy and when he turned his head to the right, he saw that a man was sitting next to him while burning some fresh meat.


"Who are you?"


Hearing the voice of a girl, Xiao Fan turned his head, he looked at the girl then said.


"You're awake already."
