Zhou Yuanyuan, in the Chaos Pearl's trial space, listened to Cha Rui ramble on about the Nawa tribe, feeling a pang of discontent. She was a cultivator, to be sure, but how many cultivators were there? Cha Rui's willingness to bite any cultivator he saw was insane!

On the riverbank, Cha Rui's mumbling continued, "Father, I forgot to tell you that the Yin and Dark Qi is the nemesis of you cultivators. Now you're lying in the river, don't you feel weak in your limbs? Don't worry, after you lie in the river for three or two months, you won't feel any pain. The river will dissolve everything you have, including your soul. What do you think? I found such a perfect burial place for you. Are you happy?"

Zhou Yuanyuan curled her lips. She wondered where Cha Rui got his confidence from. Did he think this little river could hold her captive? With the Chaos Pearl around, the Yin and Dark Water and Yin and Dark Qi were useless to her. She needed to think carefully about what to do next. Should she let the Chaos Pearl replenish its energy first? Or should she destroy Cha Rui first?

"Bah! You scoundrel! Wait until Aunt Zhuzhu crushes you!" Zhou Yuanyuan remained silent, but the Chaos Pearl couldn't help but explode in rage. This perverted Cha Rui was actually plotting to kill his master? The Chaos Pearl's fate was tied to his master. If his master died, how could he possibly survive? This was unbearable. He was determined to beat him to death.

"Zhuzhu, be quiet. Ignore him." Zhou Yuanyuan no longer wanted to pay attention to Cha Rui. This man was definitely mentally ill. According to Cha Rui, it was true that the monks were responsible for harming the Nawa people, but monks were a large ethnic group. Not all monks were enemies of the Nawa people, were they? At least Zhou Yuanyuan had never set her sights on the Nawa people. She was so kind as to follow Cha Rui to see if there was anything he could do to help.

"Okay, master." Chaos Pearl was a little unhappy, but did not dare to disobey Zhou Yuanyuan's order.

Cha Rui couldn't hear the conversation between Zhou Yuanyuan and Chaos Pearl. Seeing that Zhou Yuanyuan had been silent, he thought she was scared by him. After talking for so long, Cha Rui felt a little thirsty. More importantly, his leg, which was burned by Zhou Yuanyuan, was now more painful.

Forget it, he should go and heal his wounds first! Anyway, this female cultivator has been surrounded by the Yinming Water, and this is a forbidden place for spirits. Even if she wants to run, she is powerless.

Cha Rui thought of this and limped towards the place where he usually practiced.

"Master, what should we do? Should we go invisible and follow him, or...?" Seeing Cha Rui about to leave, the Chaos Pearl quickly sought advice from Zhou Yuanyuan. True to its nature, the Chaos Pearl would have immediately eliminated Cha Rui to vent its anger. Acting pitiful, playing the pig to eat the tiger, and acting arrogantly—aren't these its favorite tactics? Cha Rui had used them all. How annoying!

Zhou Yuanyuan's thoughts diverged from Chaos Pearl's. It was a rare opportunity to come here, and returning empty-handed wasn't her style. This was Cha Rui's home base, and he wouldn't be wandering around with his injuries still healed. She might as well just wait here, waiting for Cha Rui to come again. Wasn't this the Yinming Water and Yinming Qi that Cha Rui was so proud of? Just let Pearl swallow it all, and see how he could still boast?

Thinking of this, Zhou Yuanyuan said to Chaos Pearl, "Pearl, didn't you say you wanted to replenish your energy? Why? All this Yin and Dark Water and Yin and Dark Qi aren't to your liking? Then what do you want to eat?"

"Ah? Can we eat now? Master, you're so kind to Zhuzhu!" Chaos Pearl felt so blessed. It had originally planned to wait until after it finished its work for its master before requesting a full meal! Unexpectedly, its master was so thoughtful and had already planned everything for it. So much energy! Master said it all belonged to it. So happy! Just soaking in this dark water, Chaos Pearl felt full of strength.

"Of course, if I don't treat you well, who else will?" Zhou Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. Zhuzhu sometimes acted foolishly, which made Zhou Yuanyuan both love and anger her.

"Zhuzhu, you can't be stingy with the spiritual energy that the master cultivates. You have followed the master for so long, but you have never provided the master with your chaotic spiritual energy!" Xiaoyu did not forget to jump out to help Zhou Yuanyuan fight for benefits.

The Chaos Spiritual Energy within the Chaos Pearl was far purer than the spiritual energy available outside. If another cultivator had become the Chaos Pearl's owner, they would have long since relied on it to provide them with Chaos Spiritual Energy for their cultivation. Only Zhou Yuanyuan was so foolish as to have never considered using Chaos Spiritual Energy for so long. After all, the previous owner of the Chaos Pearl had always used Chaos Spiritual Energy when cultivating.

Xiaoyu was very worried about the Chaos Pearl. As a spiritual treasure, it had to put its owner first at all times. If it acted cunningly in front of its owner, its final outcome would be either rejection or destruction.

"Boss Xiaoyu, Zhuzhu understands." Chaos Pearl, after being reminded by Xiaoyu, nearly broke out in a sweat. Indeed, it had been living too comfortably lately. As a spiritual treasure, it should consciously provide Chaos Spiritual Energy to its master. It shouldn't forget the hierarchy just because its master is easygoing.

"Master, master, you don't have to worry about anything for a while, just practice in the trial world! Zhuzhu will provide you with spiritual energy." Chaos Pearl quickly made amends.

Zhou Yuanyuan knew Xiaoyu was hammering the Chaos Pearl for her. She had never asked for its spiritual energy. It wasn't that she didn't understand its benefits, but rather that she felt it was difficult for the Chaos Pearl to replenish its energy, and that "plundering" its labor would be unkind. But since Xiaoyu had brought it up, Zhou Yuanyuan felt embarrassed to refuse. After all, everything Xiaoyu did was for her own good.

"Zhuzhu, thank you for your hard work!" Zhou Yuanyuan said politely.

"It's not hard, it's not hard. This is what Zhuzhu should do." Chaos Pearl quickly expressed his loyalty. There is so much energy here, which can be transformed into a lot of Chaos Spiritual Energy! Even if it owns half of it and the other half of it, it's not a loss, hehe...

Afterwards, Chaos Pearl and Zhou Yuanyuan lived a life of eating and practicing.

It’s true, the chaotic spiritual energy of the Chaos Pearl is much purer than the ordinary spiritual energy Zhou Yuanyuan absorbed from outside. Zhou Yuanyuan accidentally entered a state of meditation.

It was unknown how long it had been, but when Zhou Yuanyuan woke up from her meditation, she found herself feeling light all over.

Zhou Yuanyuan was delighted. It seemed that her cultivation had improved during this period of meditation.

Before Zhou Yuanyuan could take a closer look at the level of her cultivation, she heard a series of "cracking" and rumbling sounds in her ears.

Was there an earthquake?

Zhou Yuanyuan opened her eyes and saw a bright light outside the "window" of the trial world, with stones, soil and rubble flying everywhere.
