Ye Xiao drifted along with the river. There was nothing he could because he was already unconscious. The river was flowing in an unknown direction and every now and then, the sound of waves echoed in the river. The river began to take Ye Xiao with him to an unknown place.
Just like that, time slowly began to pass and Ye Xiao's body was still floating in the river.
One day!
Two days!
Five days!
It had been a week since Ye Xiao had floated in the river. During this time, countless strands of strange white energy swirled around his hands. It was actually the energy from the Dragon Shaped Core formed from a mixture of three types of energy.
When Ye Xiao fainted and fell into the river, this energy emerged from his dantian and began to circulate around Ye Xiao's hand. Therefore, his hand that had lost almost half of its skin and flesh stopped rusting.
After a week, Ye Xiao finally drifted to the riverbank.
Coincidentally, four young men and women passed by from there. One of the women had sharp eyes and noticed Ye Xiao.
These four people were outer sect disciples of the sect known as the Thunder Cloud Sect. The woman was named Lu Xiaoran, and the two young men and a woman beside her were her eldest brother Lu Qing, second brother Lu Feng, and third sister Lu Ran.
“Ladies, anyone lying there?”
Lu Xiaoran pointed towards Ye Xiao and asked.
Lu Qing and Lu Feng looked at each other and walked to Ye Xiao's side vigilantly and said, “Eh? This guy looks seriously injured.”
Upon learning that Ye Xiao was seriously injured, they immediately began to ransack Ye Xiao's body.
Lu Xiaoran looked at this and said in a blunt tone, “What happened? Eldest Brother, Second Brother, this is not good, is it?”
“What's not good about that? After all, he was already severely injured and he was about to die. What's left in his body better let us have it. Can't you see the situation in our Lightning Cloud Sect right now? In the future, there will be fewer and fewer cultivation resources as the competition among us disciples begins to become more and more intense. So, we have to make a plan for ourselves. Lu Xiaoran, I think you wouldn't sound like this otherwise, this kindness of yours will be your strongest weakness in the future.”
Lu Qing said.
Lu Xiaoran frowned when she heard him and fell silent because what her eldest brother said was the truth.
“Pity, there's nothing on him” Lu Feng spat furiously. Lu Qing and Lu Ran also failed to find anything on Ye Xiao's body.
At this moment, Lu Xiaoran's gaze was fixed on Ye Xiao's finger and there, she saw a shining ring.
“Spatial Ring!”
Lu Xiaoran instantly realized that this was actually a spatial ring, but she did not move to take out this spatial ring, instead she tried to distract her senior brother and sister.
“Ladies, let's get out of here because this guy has nothing on him. It would be dangerous for us if we stay here longer.”
After hearing it, the others thought that what Lu Xiaoran said was the truth so they agreed not to stay here any longer and leave.
Lu Xiaoran also turned around and left with her older brother and sister, but before she left, she flicked her finger and an unknown pill came out and went straight into her mouth.
The four of them left.
After some time, Ye Xiao also woke up. When the four of them here were talking about picking up his things, he was a little aware back then and when a pill suddenly landed in his mouth. He swallowed the pill with great difficulty since he was only half conscious.
After he swallowed the pill, he immediately felt that he was regaining his strength and his mind also started to become clear. Finally, he woke up.
“Lu Xiaoran!”
“Guntur Cloud Sect.”
Ye Xiao muttered these two names. When he was still half conscious, he heard these two names. He was unable to clearly hear the conversation of the group of people before but he was still able to clearly hear these two names.
He also guessed that Lu Xiaoran was the one who helped him.
“Woosh!”
With the sound of ‘woosh’, he disappeared from his place.
_World of Heavenly Pearls_
In the middle of the Grassland, on the Jade Road that was heading in four directions, a figure suddenly appeared. The hand of this figure was flawed and looked extremely frightening.
Who else if not Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao once again came to the Heavenly Pearl world. He walked towards the Jade Lotus and plucked out one of the Jade Lotus. Without wasting any more time, he smashed the Jade Lotus in his mouth and swallowed it.
As soon as he swallowed the Jade Lotus, warm energy currents began to move within his body, Be it physical injuries, deep wounds or hidden wounds, It began to heal every single wound on his body.
His hands are also recovering. His flesh began to re-form in both of his hands.
The process was very slow but even so, his hands that had already become like skeletal hands began to reshape his flesh.
Ye Xiao once again swallowed the Jade Lotus. With the additional help of the Jade Lotus, his recovery speed suddenly increased.
Not long after, his hands became as they were.
Ye Xiao raised his hand in front of him and practiced some hand gestures. Seeing no more injuries and everything was back to how it was, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“The goddamn savage bull king, one day I will return and definitely serve Little Yellow with your corpse as his food.” Ye Xiao cursed the barbarian bull king in his heart.
When he thought about the savage bull king, his heart was instantly filled with anger. At this moment, he wanted nothing more than to increase his strength and take revenge on the barbarian bull king.
“Grrr!”
Suddenly, Ye Xiao's stomach let out a voice reminding Ye Xiao that he had not eaten anything for days. He felt hungry attacking her.
Ye Xiao once again appeared in the outside world because he felt extremely hungry and there was nothing in the Heavenly Pearl that he could eat.
“In the future, I will raise some magical beasts in the forest of The Heavenly Pearl. Then if I become hungry again in the future, I can eat it, hehe.” Ye Xiao thought and started to smile.
When Ye Xiao once again appeared in the outside world, he was surprised to find that there was no forest here.
He still remembered that he ran away from the savage bull king and when the savage bull king attacked him, he, he executed the Collapsed Mountain Fist with the help of his Fire Beast but still afterwards he was unable to save himself and fell unconscious afterwards.
He did not remember anything that happened after he fainted. And now that he had woken up, he found himself in an unknown place.
Since I'm already here, maybe I can find a place where I can eat and relieve my hunger.
After thinking of this, Ye Xiao started walking straight. He did not walk for long when he saw the city wall some distance away from him.
“It looks like there is a city there.” Ye Xiao muttered and ran towards the city wall.
When he got there, he saw a large gate that was the gate to enter this city. He walked towards the gate and stood in line as there were many people lined up there and their intentions were also the same as him as they also wanted to enter this city.
Ye Xiao was really hungry and he just wanted to eat something at the moment. Therefore, he did not even think of asking someone the name of this city. He just marched there. Some time later, it was his turn to enter the city.
“Stop there!”
As he wanted to enter the city, he heard a cold voice coming from his left side.
He stopped and turned to the left. He saw that there were two guards staring at him coldly.
“1000 Gold Coin.” Said one of the city guards.
“What?” Ye Xiao still did not understand what was going on. He turned around and saw that everyone present was also looking at him with a strange look.
