The True Martial Wolrd

chapter 23

“So I can fix a quiet bone?” asked Yi Yun.

Lian Chengyu made a silent confession. It is sad to see someone living a life in which he was so happy to be sent to his death.

Thank you Young Master. Yi Yun was very pleased. It's not fake, because he's really happy. He originally thought Lian Chengyu would go crazy and patted him a few more times after seeing him alive to confirm his death.

Although Lian Chengyu's method would not harm Yi Yun, it would result in many implications.

Lian Chengyu might have misinterpreted it as a mistake for failing to kill Yi Yun for the first time. But he'll realize it if there's a second time. To Yi Yun, that was not good news.

Yi Yun's goal of refining the desolate bones was filled by Lian Chengyu.

Refining the desolate bones gave Yi Yun time to breathe. Yi Yun's strength increased at an exponential speed, so within two months, things would no longer be the same!

Yun-er, why don't you go home to eat? Jiang Xiaorou had finished preparing the food and came out to look for Yi Yun. But he saw Yi Yun speaking to Lian Chengyu as he walked out the door.

Jiang Xiaorou was instantly worried. Lian Chengyu had previously injured Yi Yun pitifully, and had almost taken his life!

He walked over quickly, afraid that Lian Chengyu would hurt Yi Yun.

Although Jiang Xiaorou hated Lian Chengyu so much, she knew she could not lose her modesty with him.

“So, it's Young Master Lian.” Jiang Xiaorou smiled wryly after seeing Lian Chengyu as she pulled Yi Yun behind her.

“Oh? Jiang Xiaorou, I remember you. Seeing Jiang Xiaorou's actions, Lian Chengyu frowned. This girl is still hostile to herself!

Lian Chengyu did not like it if the poor plebeians of the Lian tribal clan showed him disrespect. It was the result of a sense of inferiority within him under all the greater powers, so he aimed to establish his authority among the poor that he could not compare with himself.

But Jiang Xiaorou was considered a woman he admired, so he was more tolerant of her. He would slowly tame it.

Lian Chengyu left. Although he admired Jiang Xiaorou, he did not give her any attention, nor say a word to her. He is an elite. He was like an emperor who only visited, but never chased. He just needed to wait for Jiang Xiaorou to reach a desperate situation and get Zhao Tiezhu to handle it.

Jiang Xiaorou looked at Lian Chengyu's back as she clenched Yi Yun's small hand, “Yun-er what happened?”

Nothing, Brother Xiaorou. You need not worry, replied Yi Yun.

Yi Yun was the one who told Jiang Xiaorou that Lian Chengyu had hurt her. As Yi Yun reassured him, Jiang Xiaorou calmed down. These few days, she began to vaguely feel that her brother was no longer an ordinary child. He has his own idea.

But Jiang Xiaorou started to think before she felt something was wrong, Yun-er, you can't think of repairing a desolate bone? You can't go to that place!

Yi Yun looked at Jiang Xiaorou in surprise. Jiang Xiaorou's sharp intuition was shocking. Although he did not know what mysteries the refining process possessed, he thought it was a dangerous job.

Yi Yun thought about it before saying softly, Brother Xiaorou, I am not as weak as you think. After returning from the dead, I thought I was different from the past .. Don't you remember me climbing a 20-meter high cliff a few days ago.

With Yi Yun saying that, Jiang Xiaorou remembered. He was astonished at the speed at which Yi Yun climbed the cliff, but accepted it because Yi Yun loved to climb and pick plants since young.

Thinking about it, Yi Yun was indeed stronger. He was much better at climbing cliffs than most members of the warrior preparation camp.

With that thought, Jiang Xiaorou felt reassured. Her brother is different.

Sometimes, since it did not die in a fatal situation, there would be great luck afterwards. Jiang Xiaorou had heard that some people were struck by lightning, and not only did they not die; they obtained special abilities.

Could it be that Yun-er was in the same situation?

That night, Yi Yun as a new clerk was taken to the grain sunbathing spot.

Wooden fence surrounds the wheat sump. Due to typhus, wooden fences increase, preventing anyone from outside to look inside.

There were about thirty people who were divided into two shifts involved in the quiet bone refinement.

Yi Yun was designated as the night shift. There are about a dozen people for the night shift. Although these people were not as healthy as the people from the warrior preparation camp, they were all great. Among them, Yi Yun was like a little chicken among swans. His height only reached their chest.

Looking at Yi Yun, the dozen men were shocked. The reason the gaze was obvious, how could such a thin child be chosen to refine desolate bones?

Other than his strength, his height was so short that he could not even reach the mouth of the cauldron while standing on a bench. How could he add “Li Fire Water” into the cauldron?

What can you do with your little body? Your feet are not even thicker than firewood!

All the men had a strong look when they saw Yi Yun. Yi Yun would be given a piece of bacon for not doing any work. They're not cool with that.

Yi Yun did not bother to speak, and sat down near the pile of firewood, letting them say everything they wanted.

Time for the porridge! A man from the warrior preparation camp took out a bucket of porridge. There is food prepared for those who purify desolate bones. This is the well-being that the upper echelon provides to ensure the smoothness of desolate bones. Only after eating will they have the power to work.

Upon hearing that the porridge had arrived, the eyes of the men sparkled and ran towards him.

Hula, the pail filled with porridge was snatched away empty. With Yi Yun at the back, along with how these people were fighting and fighting for food, there was already nothing left for Yi Yun.

Yi Yun felt helpless. Bad neighborhoods make bad civilians. This phrase has its own logic. It was not because people in bad neighborhoods were immoral, but being moral did not guarantee their survival.

“Time to work! Working time! The people from the warrior preparation camp shouted.

Some men walked towards the large cauldron. It's time to change the day shift.

Yi Yun limped behind. He walked slowly while staring at the cauldron.

In the eyes of others, Yi Yun looked stunned by the huge bronze cauldron that was burned by the purple flames. Indeed, the cauldron was huge. High Yi Yun did not even reach the second handle of the cauldron.

In fact, Yi Yun's gaze was filled with faint dots of light. It looked like flying fireflies were dancing at night.

Such mystical power! This was the energy of the desolate bones, and was the legendary power of the Desolates Force!

This endless stream of light dots made Yi Yun excited. Previously, the Purple Crystal had absorbed some desolate bone energy, but she stood far away and could not absorb much. It was unlike today, where he was in close contact with the desolate bones.

In comparison, Purple Jade ginseng and Black Mushroom were incomparable to this. As people who were used to eating ordinary food saw luxurious food, Yi Yun was very excited.

It's like a thief entering the emperor's tomb, a ferret sneaking into a chicken coop!

All of his secluded bone energy.

Son, what are you lazing about for? Cut the firewood! shouted a man before landing an axe in front of Yi Yun.

Yi Yun woke up from his sluggish state, and was happily preceded to chop wood.

“This child has brain problems!” the man's oath. He also began to move. He and the others were in charge of cutting down the firewood.

Firewood is the key to the source of fire. It was very strong and heavy. Some strong people had to work hard before they could cut the purple firewood.

These people work hard, because if they do well, they can be promoted to foreman, getting more meat and food.

Yi Yun though was happy not to get carried away. He knew the silent bone refinement had something to do with the rupture of “tifus”!

He wanted to fully investigate what caused the typhus outbreak. If the Purple Crystal could not finish it, then no matter how big the reward was, Yi Yun would just run away.

So as Yi Yun cut firewood without much purpose, he carefully observed the red-hot bronze cauldron.

Slowly, Yi Yun realized the problem.

From the large cauldron flew out two points of different colored light.

The first one is purple. It's part of the mainstream. It flew aimlessly, and Yi Yun realized that if he focused, these points of light would fly towards him.

With the Purple Crystal joining Yi Yun's heart, Yi Yun felt that he could now control the amount of Purple Crystals absorbed since he broke through into the second level of Mortal Blood.

He could choose whether he wanted to absorb it or not.

Another bright spot is another color, ice blue
