How many days was I in a coma?
After taking the elixir, Jiang Yuan began to inquire about what happened after the Spirit King's death.
"It's been a month!" Yu Tu said mischievously, blinking her big eyes.
"So long?" Jiang Yuan looked up in surprise. It didn't seem like that long in his mind. How could a month have passed in the blink of an eye?
"You big idiot!"
Yu Tu grunted a couple of times, picked up the bowl, and walked outside.
"What do you mean? How many days has it been?" Jiang Yuan nudged the little dumpling beside him and asked, puzzled, "Little dumpling, how long have I been asleep?"
"Daytime, nighttime!" the little dumpling said in broken Mandarin.
"Just one day, right?" Jiang Yuan frowned.
"Fool, you believe me if I say one month?" Yu Tu walked back in, followed by Little Fatty.
"Brother Yuan, you're finally awake! I was so worried about you!" Little Fatty rushed in to hug Jiang Yuan as soon as he entered.
"No, no, no! My whole body feels like it's falling apart, please stop torturing me!"
Jiang Yuan immediately dodged. Carrying someone of Xiao Pang's size would be a death sentence. The shield warrior's thick skin and tough flesh were no joke.
"Ha ha!"
Little Fatty wasn't angry at all. Instead, he laughed heartily, took out a storage ring, and said with an admiring look, "Brother Yuan, I really admire you this time! I never thought you could accomplish something so impossible. You're really amazing!"
"roll!"
Yu Tu kicked Little Fatty, then laughed and scolded, "Can't you speak properly? Even people who pretend to be cultured can say something decent, how come you say such vulgar things!"
"Okay, okay, I know I was wrong!"
As Little Fatty was kicked over, he instinctively hugged An Xiaoyu, and the two playfully wrestled and laughed.
“This is mine!” Jiang Yuan turned his head away from the two of them arguing and focused his attention on the storage ring that Little Fatty had taken out.
He remembered that some of the storage rings belonged to the Spirit King and Chief Steward Feng. The battle was too intense at the time, and he didn't even collect the storage rings. Later, although he released Little Dumpling, how could such a gluttonous bear like Little Dumpling clean up the battlefield!
“Yes, you were unconscious in Echo Valley, so we cleaned up the battlefield for you and put away all the useful things! Because there were too many things, we could only pile them up in a few storage rings!” Little Fatty said seriously.
"Where is my spear?!"
Jiang Yuan glanced around and discovered that his God-Slaying Spear was not in any of these storage rings, but in his perception, it was on Yu Tu.
"Oh, your gun is with me, I'll give it to you later!" Yu Tu said, sounding a little guilty.
Jiang Yuan, unsuspecting, nodded and said, "It's alright, I probably won't need it for the next couple of days anyway, just keep it with you for now!"
"Then I'll return it to you in two days!" Yu Tu was overjoyed, his eyes brimming with undisguised delight.
With the help of the elixir, Jiang Yuan's injuries began to ease, but it would take some time for him to fully recover. After all, the living effect of the Great Wilderness Divine Wood Body was not omnipotent, and injuries like his would take at least three days to heal.
"Reset, Five Elements Ring!"
The backlash was too severe, so Jiang Yuan directly neutralized the backlash from the Five Elements Ring. Only in this way could he fully devote himself to recovering from his injuries.
"By the way, you killed the Spirit King, this is his identity token. When we leave the Tomb of the Warlord, you can go to the Mercenary Headquarters in Haicheng and use this token to collect your mission reward!" Yu Tu said, handing a blood-red token to Jiang Yuan.
"Demon Shade!" Jiang Yuan stared at the two large characters on the token and fell into deep thought. If he were to accept the mission, he would inevitably incur the wrath of the Demon Shade Divine Mountain.
However, thinking of that treacherous woman Luo Fei, he no longer had too many doubts, because with Luo Fei around, whether he accepted the mission or not, he would be hunted down by the Demon God Mountain.
"Little Fatty, Jiang Yuan just woke up and needs to rest more. Let's not disturb him!" Yu Tu grabbed Little Fatty's wrist, trying to get up.
"You're leaving already? I haven't even had a chance to say a few words to Brother Yuan!" Little Fatty said with a bitter face.
"We'll come see Jiang Yuan again once he's fully recovered!" Yu Tu was about to push Xiao Pang out.
"Wait, where are we now?"
Jiang Yuan interrupted the two and asked.
"The Dongling Plain is dozens of kilometers away from Echo Valley, and the direction is deeper into the inner palace!" Yu Tu couldn't stay any longer after saying that, and hurriedly pushed Xiao Pang away.
"What's going on? This is all so strange." Jiang Yuan leaned back against the headboard and then subconsciously wiped away the remaining medicine from the corner of his mouth.
When he lowered his hand and saw the barely noticeable red mark on his finger, he suddenly understood why An Xiaoyu had left so quickly.
"She really won't forget to dress up even if she's going through fire and water!" Jiang Yuan said, shaking his head. This color must be An Xiaoyu's lipstick. As for why it got on his lips, it's obvious without needing to explain.
The battle ended too suddenly, and Jiang Yuan didn't have time to organize many things. Now, while recovering from his injuries, it's necessary to sort out his gains, since some things can only reliably improve his combat power after being used.
The greatest gains from the Battle of Echo Valley were the killing of over 100,000 alien beasts, including 140,000 Marks of the Dead, countless unique talents, and several hundred Holy Spirits, including the strongest Spirit King.
Apart from Luo Fei, none of the Holy Spirits who entered this place survived, which also means that there will be no Holy Spirits in the upcoming inner temple journey, greatly reducing the pressure.
Besides the harvest, there was an even bigger surprise: the Demon Slayer!
When Jiang Yuan woke up, he discovered that Ghost Slash had not consumed his life force, but had replaced it with something else. However, due to the emergency, he did not know what it was.
