Chapter 366
What to do next? He could retrieve little Greenie, but he couldn’t leave the little carp inside her body, right? She trusted him and that’s why there’s no defense, but if the little carp made any troubles inside…he would then have a hard time to explain!
After destroying the trace of evil spirit, Ao Yuanqing immediately looked more much relaxed.
For demonic cultivators, the inner core was equivalent to their Dantian. If there was something wrong with the inner core, it would be a question whether they could survive.
Xu Ziyan kept his face blank, pointing his fingertips between Ao Yuanqing’s brows, not daring to let go…
How could he let go? If he did, what could he do if the little carp simply refused to come back?
Not only should he hold on to it, but he also had to use his spiritual power to chase the carp and bring it back.
Fortunately, with the collision just now, he almost explored all the veins in Ao Yuanqing’s body. Otherwise, he wouldn’t know how to explain if he still made her sweat all over!
“Senior Xu?” Although Xu Ziyan didn’t say anything, it didn’t mean that Ao Yuanqing didn’t feel it.
Others might not be able to see it, but Ao Yuanqing clearly felt that the trace of evil spirit had been dispelled already, so why did senior Xu refuse to let go?
Ao Yuanqing: ==
Xu Ziyan said in a serious manner, “the trace of evil spirit did a lot of damage to you, I am just checking if you’re injured elsewhere too.”
“Thank you, senior.” Ao Yuanqing immediately expressed her gratitude.
As a demonic cultivator, it’s normal to have a lot of hidden wounds. Usually, they caused no harm, but if they ever attempted to break through, they would bring a negative impact.
It was not impossible to heal the hidden wounds, but they’d have to find some treasures of the Heaven and the Earth or look for a high-level cultivator to heal them.
No matter which one it was, it’s very difficult to get for Ao Yuanqing.
Now that Xu Ziyan was willing to expend energy to treat her, she’s already very grateful. It’s impossible for her to have any extra or useless thoughts!
Xu Ziyan looked solemn, but he’s actually working hard to nourish Ao Yuanqing’s meridians. It’s definitely a job without return, but he could only continue doing so as long as the little carp stayed in her body…
While healing Ao Yuanqing’s wounds, he’s chasing after the little carp with spiritual energy. Xu Ziyan finally caught the naughty little carp after a long while.
Hmm…rather than catching up, it’d be more appropriate to say that the little carp had played enough and was squatting obediently next to Ao Yuanqing’s inner core.
Xu Ziyan finally breathed a sigh of relief – fortunately, the little carp was just being naughty, it didn’t do anything extraordinary.
Xu Ziyan: Σ(°△°)! Damn it ! Stop, little carp… No! shut up! ! ! !
While Xu Ziyan looked shocked, the little carp suddenly opened its mouth wide and took a bite on Ao Yuanqing’s inner core, which was now missing a piece!
Ahhh!!! Xu Ziyan was completely dumbfounded!
Damn it! They were in Tengyun city, and it’s definitely catastrophic to kill a Jiaolong there!
However, something happened immediately afterwards that shocked Xu Ziyan even more. At some point, the little carp spat out a lot of bubbles next to the inner core. These bubbles wrapped the inner core, and the little carp took the opportunity to spit out another black piece of inner core.
This black piece was similar in size to the one that was bitten off. Under the guidance of the little carp, the black piece slowly merged into the bubble, then tightly combined with Ao Yuanqing’s original inner core.
The corners of Xu Ziyan’s eyes twitched as he looked at the black and red inner core that looked like a patch, then at Ao Yuanqing who was still unaware of a thing. He silently turned his face, “um…I don’t know about anything.”
Since Ao Yuanqing didn’t feel anything, there should be no problem……right? →. →
Perhaps it’s out of guilt, but after the little carp returned to Xu Ziyan’s body, he carefully sorted out the spiritual power for Ao Yuanqing. In addition to the original hidden wounds, Xu Ziyan also replaced widened some places where the meridians were not smooth enough.
Xu Ziyan’s actions had a significant impact on Ao Yuanqing. It’s obvious that Ao Yuanqing was greatly benefited from this incident, and it can be seen from her slightly blushed cheeks and her look of excitement.
Xu Ziyan was feeling entangled while sending the super thankful Ao siblings away, and he saw the super furious Xu Zirong once he turned his head…
Xu Ziyan: …Damn it, still need to comfort this guy with clinginess disease!
As early as when he proposed to treat Ao Yuanqing, he already felt as if someone was watching behind his back. When he carefully sorted out Ao Yuanqing’s meridians, Xu Zirong’s miserable eyes almost turned into substance, stabbing through his back…
But what could he do about that?
Was he going to tell the truth in front of the Ao siblings?
I’m really sorry, my little carp ate a part of your sister’s inner core, so I’m trying to make things up…
“Brother…why are you so nice to her?” Xu Zirong sounded so gloomy that tears might fall down on his cheeks anytime.
Xu Ziyan wiped his face vigorously, and tried to explain the matter in detail.
Xu Zirong didn’t speak for a while. Then, he raised his head very calmly, “brother, call your little carp, I want to talk to it…”
The corners of Xu Ziyan’s eyes twitched slightly. Then, he opened Mr. Little Square and put Xu Zirong inside.
Well, he didn’t know exactly how Xu Zirong communicated with the little carp. Anyway, in the next few days, those little guys in Mr. Little Square were surprisingly obedient and they didn’t make troubles at all.
And Xu Ziyan also figured out from Xu Zirong why the little carp did that.
Although the Styx carp was a natural spiritual creature, they had possessed extremely strong power from the day they were born. However, it was still extremely difficult for them to advance.
The only way for the Styx carp to advance would be to transform into a dragon, but how could it be so simple?
According to the little carp’s inherited memory, there were two ways to be transformed into a dragon – the first one was leaping over the dragon gate. Regardless of whether it’s a Styx carp or another kind, they were born with the talent to leap over the dragon gate and be transformed into a dragon. However, there were seven dragon gates, and the one belonging to the Styx river carp was in the underworld…
No one had any idea where the underworld was, and even if someone did, why would an alive person step into the territory of the dead?
Although the little carp was so young, it’s not stupid, as it already eliminated the option of leaping over the dragon gate.
The second method was also an extremely difficult one, because it required the little carp to thoroughly understand the composition of a dragon’s body from the inside.
To put it more exaggeratedly, it would be best for the little carp to dissect a dozen or twenty dragons, and it’d better to be able to reassemble a dragon body in its mind with its eyes closed.
It’s just that wanting to dissect a dozen or twenty dragons was simply a fantasy, even Xu Ziyan would not agree to its request.
As a Styx carp with ideals and pursuits, it had no choice but to change its method, taking advantage of Xu Ziyan’s opportunity to heal Ao Yuanqing’s wounds to observe carefully in her body. In the end, it even took a bite of her inner core, just to understand the route of demonic power in her body.
Xu Ziyan was speechless about this, but as the owner of such a carp with ideals and pursuits, he confirmed repeatedly that the ‘patch’ would certainly not cause any harm to Ao Yuanqing. On the contrary, it would give her benefits.
After treating Ao Yuanqing, Xu Ziyan and the others stayed in Tengyun City for another three days. During these days, Xu Ziyan visited the city lord of Tengyun under the recommendation of Ao Yuanming. After the two talked in secret for 15 minutes, the city lord, Ao Yun and Xu Ziyan became brothers and even sent each other out of the mansion enthusiastically.
No one knew what kind of agreement Xu Ziyan reached with the city lord of Tengyun, or, what kind of agreement the Jiaolong clan had reached. Anyway, under the care of the city lord, Xu Ziyan spent a few comfortable days in Tengyun. In the shops of the Jiaolong clan, he could get a far lower price than others, and he could also buy special products of the Jiaolong clan that were sold in limited quantities.
It’s a very simple matter. First of all, when Ao Yuanming introduced the situation to the city lord, Ao Yun, he focused on the incidents that he’d encountered over the past few days.
As the leader of the Jiaolong guards in Tengyun, Ao Yuanming naturally won the trust of Ao Yun. Otherwise, he would not be able to secure this position. Ao Yun favored naturally for people introduced by Ao Yuanming.
In addition, after learning from Ao Yuanming that Xu Ziyan had saved his life, Ao Yun had an even better impression of Xu Ziyan. After all, Ao Yuanming was a dragon about to break through the stage of nascent soul, and he was a subordinate with the biggest potential. If Ao Yuanming was killed by a member of the sea snake clan, then Ao Yun’s investments over the years would all be in vain!
Because of the above, Ao Yun became very fond of Xu Ziyan after talking to him for a while, and at this time, Xu Ziyan took out a large amount of materials from the demon race just in time.
Seeing the materials piled up like a hill, Ao Yun’s eyes flashed instantly.
What was the most demanded item in the eastern sea now? Materials from the demon race without a doubt!
Since the eastern sea was far away from the Central Plains front and it was difficult for the sea clan to gain advantages on land, there was no chance to capture the demon race. Although human cultivators had some materials, they still needed to study and use them, and there were no extra materials for sale.
The monsters of the eastern sea were not fools. They knew very well that the cultivators of Xuan Yu realm seemed to be on the same level as the demon race, and everyone knew that these demons were the advanced army. They were able to confront the human cultivators, which means that if the demon army invaded the Xuan Yu realm, it would be occupied by the demon race pretty soon.
