Xiao Yixian said gently: “Sister Yun Yun, the Sir is really very considerate.
Actually, I only stayed at Peach Forest Mountain because the Sir saved me.”
“Oh?” Yun Yun turned her head in confusion.
So, Xiao Yixian was not a maid who had always followed the Sir?
Yun Yun had always thought the two were master and servant, and that she usually helped the Sir warm the bed and scrub his back.
She didn’t expect Xiao Yixian to be someone the Sir had saved.
Xiao Yixian told Yun Yun everything that had happened to her, and Yun Yun hadn’t expected Xiao Yixian to be the successor of the Woeful Poison Body.
If not for the Sir’s help, her Woeful Poison Body would have already broken out.
That heart-wrenching pain was probably only known to those who had experienced it.
From then on, Xiao Yixian had sworn to follow the Sir for the rest of her life.
Yun Yun bit her lip, watching the shimmering lake.
A complex look flashed in her eyes.
Perhaps her feelings had left the Yun Lan Sect with him when she exchanged the Amethyst Spike.
…
Located in the Tager Desert in the northwestern part of the Jia Ma Empire, Jiang Cheng arrived using less than half a day.
Perhaps because it was close to the desert, the weather here was quite dry and hot.
The scorching sun shone down from the sky, baking the earth below until it continuously emitted a stifling heat.
That heat rose slowly, actually causing the line of sight to appear with a slightly distorted and blurry sense.
Jiang Cheng also quite disliked this: feeling dazed from the heat during the day and having the temperature drop sharply at night.
When he was still a Dou Wang, he had personally experienced this feeling.
Fortunately, now that he had reached Dou Sheng, this temperature could no longer pose a threat to him.
Next was to go see his old friend.
…
A shop selling maps located on the outskirts of the Tager Desert.
In this uninhabited Tager Desert, this shop was so eye-catching that if one didn’t look carefully, they would really think it was a common phenomenon in the desert—a mirage.
Jiang Cheng looked up at the banner hanging above the shop and walked in naturally.
The room was not large but exceptionally tidy.
His gaze fell on an old man behind the counter, who was bowing his head and carefully making a map.
This old man was clearly quite old, but although his head was full of white hair, the withered hand holding the black drawing pen was still steady and powerful.
When he felt someone arrive, the old man didn’t move but said coldly:
“Take what you want yourself; the maps are all on the shelves.”
Jiang Cheng glanced at the map covered in yellow sand and shook his head helplessly, saying: “I say, Ice Emperor, after eight years, you’re still the same.
You don’t even think to tidy up.”
Hearing these words, the temperature in the room instantly dropped dozens of times, and a powerful shock wave burst out.
Not only that, at a visible speed, a circle of ice-blue Dou Qi actually surrounded the old man’s body.
The Ice Emperor, one of the top ten powerhouses of the Jia Ma Empire, had even fought two Dou Huang powerhouses by himself at his peak—his strength was terrifying!
Hai Bo Dong stared at the man in front of him with a solemn gaze and couldn’t help but gasp, saying in surprise, “Jiang Cheng!
I didn’t expect you to still be alive!”
“I say, Old Hai, was I not supposed to be alive?!”
Jiang Cheng laughed, sat directly on the ground, picked up a nearby teapot, and poured himself a cup of ice water.
Hai Bo Dong’s mouth twitched.
The two had met eight years ago.
At that time, Jiang Cheng had promised him to help refine the Breaking Misfortune Pill, but this guy had never returned after going to the depths of the Tager Desert.
He even suspected Jiang Cheng had died at the hands of Queen Medusa and had wanted to go look for him countless times, but was forced to stay here and wait due to the sealing technique.
“You brat, you’ve finally come back.
Where is the Breaking Misfortune Pill you promised me?”
Hai Bo Dong asked somewhat urgently.
He had waited for a full eight years and naturally couldn’t wait any longer to recover his Dou Huang realm.
Jiang Cheng took out a special Tier 6 pill and pushed it in front of Hai Bo Dong, then said: “This is the Tier 6 Breaking Misfortune Pill.
After you eat it, you can break the seal in your body.
However, after the seal is lifted, I hope you will accompany me to the snake-people tribe in the depths of the Tager Desert.”
Puchi!
Hai Bo Dong, who was still celebrating his imminent recovery as a Dou Huang, was instantly surprised.
His mouth twitched as he grabbed Jiang Cheng’s collar and said:
Back then, I disregarded the seal and trespassed into the snake-people tribe for you; I almost got killed!”
“You kid have Dou Qi wings, but this old man only has two legs!”
Jiang Cheng coughed awkwardly twice.
This matter had indeed happened…
but back then he had also lured Queen Medusa away, otherwise, Hai Bo Dong would have long been a dead soul under the blade.
“My fault.”
Jiang Cheng shrugged, his folding fan touching the Breaking Misfortune Pill as he said: “But if Old Hai doesn’t agree, then this Breaking Misfortune Pill cannot be given to you.”
Hai Bo Dong: “…”
I have never seen such a thick-skinned person; Jiang Cheng is the first!
After being silent for a long time, Hai Bo Dong clenched his fist and said: “Fine, I’ll brave it with you once more.
After the matter is done, you have to refine the Spirit Recovery Purple Pill for me!”
Though the Spirit Recovery Purple Pill was only a Tier 5 pill, it could eliminate the aftereffects of being sealed, allowing Hai Bo Dong to return to a Five-Star Dou Huang or higher in a short time.
Jiang Cheng also agreed without hesitation.
He ate Tier 5 pills like jellybeans, so naturally he didn’t care much.
Seeing this, Hai Bo Dong also impatiently picked up the Breaking Misfortune Pill on the table and tossed it into his mouth.
He had known Jiang Cheng for years and had fought alongside him, so he naturally wasn’t afraid Jiang Cheng would poison him.
Thick power continuously hit Hai Bo Dong’s limbs and bones, and powerful Dou Qi was as endless as surging waves.
Jiang Cheng also went to the location of the maps.
After some searching, he found an old remnant map.
A special location was marked on the remnant map; without thinking, one knew it should be a treasure map.
As a loyal fan of Fights Break Sphere, Jiang Cheng naturally knew what this was—it was a fragment of the map for the third-ranked Heavenly Flame, the Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame.
The Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame was a good thing that even a Dou Sheng could only dream of.
However, since the Purifying Lotus Saint fell, the Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame had never appeared again.
Now, these map fragments were the only way to find the location of the Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame.
With the fragment of the Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame map in hand, there was another part of this map, but it had been perfectly cut into two by the Ice Emperor Hai Bo Dong.
He would ask for it after he recovered.
