The old zombie’s words were cut off as its body turned into flying ash, dispersing into the air. In the place where it vanished, a red light shot up.
“Hmm?”
Tian Fan looked over in confusion, and behind the black mist, there were actually nine blood pills, radiating pure life force. The fact that this old zombie had such valuable items within it was surprising. However, it made sense. After absorbing so much blood essence, it was reasonable that it would have nurtured these blood pills.
Tian Fan extended his right hand and gathered all nine blood pills into his palm.
“How’s it going, Xiao Fan? Is Little Junior Sister alright?”
Li Yunyang glanced at the blood pills but quickly asked about Sun Yueying’s condition. He was more concerned about her safety than the blood pills.
“Don’t worry, she’s fine,” Tian Fan replied to Li Yunyang. Then, he crushed one of the blood pills in his hand and fed the essence to Sun Yueying. As soon as the blood pill’s essence entered her body, combined with the infusion of Tian Fan’s True Qi, Sun Yueying immediately regained consciousness.
“Thank goodness, I was so scared!” Li Yunyang finally exhaled in relief. Afterward, Tian Fan crushed another blood pill and infused it into Li Yunyang to heal his injuries. Compared to Sun Yueying, Li Yunyang’s wounds were much lighter, and with this rare medicine, he quickly recovered.
“What about those guys?”
Li Yunyang looked at the people lying on the ground. Yin Shitian had been beaten so badly by Tian Fan that he was almost unrecognizable, while the other two were heavily injured, and one was unconscious. None of them posed any threat now, and they could easily be killed if they wanted to.
“Forget about them. We’ve completed our task; let’s leave.” Tian Fan glanced at Yin Shitian and said to Li Yunyang.
“Damn it, I really want to personally beat those guys up!” Li Yunyang smacked his lips, itching for a fight.
“You want to hit someone?” Tian Fan looked at him with a mischievous smile.
“Yeah, especially that second guy. But I can’t beat him.” Li Yunyang rubbed his hands together, a little unwilling. That second guy was the only one among Yin Shitian’s group who wasn’t seriously injured and had humiliated Li Yunyang earlier. However, the guy was already at the mid-stage of Condensed Spirit.
“Heh, if you can’t beat him, don’t forget you have me!” Tian Fan scanned the people on the ground. These guys clearly deserved a beating.
“Really? Alright!” Li Yunyang clenched his fists, and as soon as Tian Fan restrained the second guy, Li Yunyang rushed over.
“You… What are you going to do?” The second guy looked at Li Yunyang in fear, but Tian Fan had already placed several small restrictions on him, leaving him lying on the ground, unable to move.
“What am I going to do? Heh heh, take a guess,” Li Yunyang chuckled maliciously and threw a punch.
“Ah!” A scream came from the second guy’s mouth as his left eye turned black and blue. Poor him, a mid-stage Condensed Spirit cultivator, was getting beaten up by Li Yunyang, who was only at the early stage of Condensed Spirit.
“Ugh, this looks unbalanced. Let’s even it out!” Li Yunyang touched his chin, frowned, and shook his head, saying something that sounded terrifying to the second guy. He knew things were going to get worse. And sure enough, his instincts were right.
“Ah!”
This time, his right eye turned black as well.
“Now that’s more like it! Looks much better than before.” Li Yunyang laughed and then launched himself at the second guy, delivering punches and kicks. The entire cave echoed with his pig-like screams.
Tian Fan silently offered his condolences from the side. Of all people, why did he provoke someone who holds grudges?
Sun Yueying, who had just woken up, giggled softly as she watched the scene.
“Sigh, forget it. Even though you insulted me before, I’m not a petty person. I’ll let it slide this time.” Finally, Li Yunyang clapped his hands and spoke to the second guy, who was now barely breathing, his chest heaving weakly. The second guy glared at him before fainting.
“Alright, done!” Li Yunyang looked at the unconscious man and turned around with a sly grin.
“Alright, let’s go. There’s no need to bother with them anymore,” Sun Yueying said to the two, seeing that everything was settled. The three of them turned and walked out of the cave.
Behind them, Yin Shitian stared at their backs with deep resentment, but there was nothing he could do. He could only watch helplessly as they left.
“Xiao Fan, how are you so strong? You never told us!” On the way, Li Yunyang threw his arm around Tian Fan’s shoulder, his face full of curiosity.
“Haha, well, you know, geniuses are always like this!” Tian Fan laughed and hooked his arm around Li Yunyang’s shoulder, looking smug and full of self-praise. Unknowingly, his personality had begun to change dramatically. He had become more lively and nothing like his former self in the Soaring Dragon Dynasty. He liked this new feeling.
“Heh heh, you really didn’t go easy on Yin Shitian earlier. That guy won’t recover without at least a couple of months of rest.”
“Heh heh, it’s nothing compared to you. You almost turned that second guy into a vegetable.”
“By the way, Xiao Fan, coming down the mountain this time was exhausting. How about we relax a bit?”
“Sure, where are we going?”
Sun Yueying smiled at the two of them. Without realizing it, their bond had grown so strong that they seemed like brothers.
“Heh heh, I know a good place. There are beauties everywhere, heh heh,” Li Yunyang smirked, hooking his arm around Tian Fan’s shoulder, his eyes squinting with delight.
“Look at you. Did you have so much fun that you forgot to come back?” Tian Fan shot him a disdainful glance.
“Let me tell you, it’s not what you think! I was just appreciating those enchanting figures with the purest gaze and listening to the beautiful sound of the qin. Besides, those ladies are all peerless beauties, the daughters of noble families. I could only secretly lie on the rooftop and… ahem… admire them from a distance,” Li Yunyang said righteously, but accidentally let the truth slip at the end.
“What the heck, you’re spying on people! Let me tell you, I’m not that kind of person. I’m a virtuous man of pure character, a true gentleman who would never do such things!” Tian Fan expressed his disdain, looking righteously indignant. But as he spoke, his tone changed: “By the way, where’s that place? Don’t get me wrong, I’m asking to supervise you, just in case you lose control and do something inappropriate.”
Li Yunyang shot Tian Fan a sideways glance without saying anything, but the message was clear — very clear: I despise you.
“Neither of you are good people!”
Behind them, Sun Yueying listened to their banter with a smile. She was happy for their friendship, but when their conversation turned to flirtatious women and spying on girls, it seemed like they were seriously considering putting their words into action. Furious, Sun Yueying scolded them and stormed ahead.
“Uh…”
Both of them stood dumbfounded, stunned by her outburst. Li Yunyang slapped himself hard. Damn it, how could he forget there was a woman here, and not just any woman, but the notorious “Little Witch” of the Great Sealing Sect, Sun Yueying! He could already imagine the miserable days awaiting him back at the sect.
“Wait, Little Junior Sister, it’s not what you think! Let me explain…”
Li Yunyang’s pleading voice echoed across the plains.
At the horizon, a beautiful sunrise slowly emerged…
