Chapter 89: Over the Mountain



Seeing Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang coming, Hui Yue couldn't help but admire:

“How spectacular.”

Standing beside her, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang couldn't help but sigh at the scene before them. Only in such a deserted place could such a scene be seen.

Under the small earthen mound, there was a huge depression where weeds grew recklessly. Under the golden sunset, it looked like a golden wheat field, boundless. The wind here was no longer cold, but a little warm, caressing the weeds and bringing a hint of rotten fragrance to Xia Xiao and the other two.

The wind caresses the faces that have not completely faded, like a loser, dissuading people from trying too hard, otherwise they will waste their lives and end up alone. The young hearts are not infected by it, they are fresh and full of life, dare to fantasize, dare to fight, this is what young people are like. They just think that this golden wasteland is too sad, and the uncanny craftsmanship of the wilderness is indeed extraordinary.

If a great poet who is often melancholy came here, he would surely pour out his writing and compose some good poems. However, Xia Xiao looked at it for a long time, swallowed the words on his lips, and uttered a word "Fuck".

The people around him couldn't understand, which made Xia Xiao sigh. It was really pitiful.

Lin Tian and the other two came to Xia Xiao one after another, but they kept to themselves and there was no conflict. The six of them watched the scene together, each with different thoughts in their minds.

The six people were watching with great interest, their eyes unable to help but explore the truth in it. At this time, Sun Wei came over.

"This golden wasteland was left behind by a senior."

Sun Wei's words aroused everyone's curiosity and they listened to what he had to say.

"That happened a long time ago. A young man from Heitai City got a place in the local competition. He then passed by this place and saw the wild grass in the wind advance to the realm of honor. He also signed a spiritual contract with the accompanying wood-element wild beast. With one palm, he created this several-mile wasteland for future generations to comprehend."

There was a reason why Sun Wei deliberately chose this path. Whether it was the snowy forest or the wasteland, it was all part of his plan.

"We can set off later tomorrow and take a closer look tonight. Maybe we can figure out the truth."

Xia Xiao looked around a few times, stood there for a moment, then turned around and walked towards the tent without staying.

Huiyue had already prepared dinner by the tent. Seeing Xia Xiao and the others coming back, she asked curiously:

"Don't you want to take another look?"

"No, other people's experience may not be useful to us."

Xia Xiao sat on the ground and started to eat. He and Shu Shuang were both in the middle stage of Condensation. He also had the power of Wood Element. Although Shu Shuang was not sure, he didn't need to waste time in the wilderness. It was the intention of the predecessors, but it was not an object for the descendants to emulate!

Sure enough, after a night, Lin Tian and the other two hadn't realized anything. They sighed, got in the car and set off.

After walking through this wasteland, the road became much flatter, and it was considered to be on the main road. The weather was no longer so cold. Xia Xiao and the others took off a piece of clothing and took out the treasured medicinal pills.

"Really take it now?"

Shu Shuang felt that such a precious medicine pill should be taken after it calmed down, so that it would be most effective. But Xia Xiao nodded firmly and said:

"I don't know what else will happen when we get to Wanling City, so I'd better take it now!"

When he opened a delicate wooden box, the mist inside suddenly emanated, even covering the carriage. The strong smell of medicine surprised Huiyue, who was standing by, and also made the people in the other carriages open their eyes.

This kind of fluctuation must be the three-hundred-year-old elixir given by the dynasty to the first champion. Thinking of this, although Lin Tian was angry, he could continue to practice!

In the five days after the first championship, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang participated in the production of medicinal pills. The medicinal power of this three-hundred-year-old blood ginseng is extremely strong, and it can strengthen the bones and muscles after taking it. Most importantly, there is a lot of vitality in it, which can be used to irrigate the vitality seeds. The spiritual medicine takes the absorbed heaven and earth vitality into the body and refines it in its own way, which is conducive to the growth of the vitality seeds.

At this time, there were only two pills in the wooden box, but there were many patterns on it, just like a pale white stone pill. When Xia Xiao saw it, he remembered that day when he was sweating coldly while urging his vitality to make pills, fearing that something might go wrong!

"ah--"

After feeding Shu Shuang one pill, Xia Xiao swallowed the other one. Immediately, the medicinal power penetrated into his heart and spleen.

Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang quickly formed a hand seal and began to absorb it.

Looking at the two people with pale white mist all over their bodies, Huiyue was a little curious. Is this the medicine pill made from the three hundred year old spiritual medicine? She had an indescribable feeling, in short, it was... very extraordinary. The next moment, a blood-red light burst out from the white light, shocking Huiyue's tall peaks and ridges to tremble slightly.

Looking at Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang again, their faces flushed, drawing the scattered vitality and medicinal power into their bodies. The red light that throbbed from time to time was like a beating heart, and the power it brought up created a warm wave of air, which made Huiyue lose the mind to read.

With her white chin propped up, Huiyue's mature and charming face showed a little worry. The two people who were absorbing the medicine pills seemed to be about to explode at any time, and they didn't know if anything would happen.

Pooh!

Huiyue kept saying that she was a bad-mouthed person and waited for them to wake up.

The medicinal pill was strong, and Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang continued to absorb it. In their dark sea of ​​​​spiritual energy, the seeds of vitality were irrigated countless times, and the long germination process was constantly advanced without affecting the future.

In the blink of an eye, five days passed while Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang were practicing happily.

Sun Wei sat in the carriage, feeling Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang awaken, and smiled. After five days of continuous training, this kind of courage is very strong. However, he was also optimistic about Hui Yue who was beside them. She always stayed by their side, which was a bit touching.

When he opened his eyes, Xia Xiao felt that Shu Shuang in front of him was a little strange.

"How long will it take?"

He asked Huiyue beside him, who had dark circles under her eyes and replied:

"Five days exactly."

"Five days..."

"Not very long."

Shu Shuang woke up earlier than Xia Xiao. She was smiling at this moment and the absorption was quite successful.

Xia Xiao estimated that he would reach Wanling City in two days. By then, he would absorb the medicinal power in his body, add the power of the wood element and the broadsword, and the strong men in the early stage of the noble realm would not be a threat to him. No matter how strong the young people who entered Wanling Valley were, they would only be like this. Xia Xiao had paved the way for himself, leading directly to the imperial capital, Zhenxun!

"What’s wrong with you?"

Xia Xiao asked Huiyue, who covered her lips with her hands and yawned.

“No…it’s okay!”

Huiyue didn't get a good rest in the past five days, because she didn't know when they would wake up, so she had been waiting by their side. Her face looked haggard, which was heartbreaking to see.

"Come and get some sleep."

Pulling up the blanket she sat on during training, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang used several quilts to make a "small bed" for her to lie on. Although it was crude, it was better than sitting, and the most comfortable thing was lying down.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Huiyue, go to sleep."

Shu Shuang and Xia Xiao sat where Hui Yue usually sat, looking at her like she usually did. Xia Xiao was not Hui Yue, so she couldn't imagine how it felt to sit here for five days. It must have been very boring. She must have worked so hard!

Huiyue was indeed sleepy. She wrapped herself in a warm quilt, put her beautiful hands under her face, and fell asleep quickly. She did not wake up even when the carriage stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Xia Xiao asked the driver, who stammered and pointed ahead, saying:

"It's stopped in front."

Xia Xiao jumped off the carriage, supported Shu Shuang with both hands, and carried her down.

"Have you grown taller?"

Shu Shuang gestured happily, but Xia Xiao shook his head.

"It's only been five days. I'm not a wild beast."

Patting Shu Shuang on the head, they walked to the front of the convoy together. It was not lunch time, it was morning, a good time to travel, why did they stop?

Sun Wei stood in front of the convoy, with three people from Rongcheng behind him. Seeing Xia Xiao coming, Sun Wei slowly spoke and said:

"We're almost there."

Standing at one end of the mountain road, there are cliffs under your feet, a winding path in front of you, and directly opposite is a mountain that reaches the sky.

It was morning, the weather was clear, and the mist around the mountain was very thin, but it still had a feeling that mortals could not get close to it, like a fairyland. It was lush and green, with evergreen trees everywhere. Standing here, you could see a city built on the mountainside, glowing with vitality.

The light of vitality was so bright that Lin Tian was afraid. Suddenly, he understood what Sun Wei said at that time. When he arrived in Wanling City, one action would affect his whole life. People like him who came from Rongcheng had a weak background and ordinary life experience. If he wanted to get everything he wanted, he had to work hard quietly.

Thinking of his previous thoughts, Lin Tian found them funny and childish. When he arrived at Wanling Valley, he would find a chance to get rid of Xia Xiao and avenge his hatred. He should let his previous arrogance disappear together with him! He was only considered a genius in Rongcheng, and he did not have the capital to be arrogant and domineering.

Xia Xiao was completely different from Lin Tian. There was some enthusiasm in his eyes. In the city far away, all the outstanding young people of the Great Xia Dynasty who had obtained the places in the local competition gathered. Among them were people from the National Elderly Academy and allies such as Su Huan. Once you step into it, a new story will begin. This is why he absorbed the blood ginseng in advance!

"Wanling City is ready and waiting for us. Once we cross this mountain, they will hear your story. Are you ready, the outstanding young people of Rong City?"

Sun Wei turned his head and looked at the five people. To be precise, he only said this to Lin Tian and the other two. Although they were not gifted, anyone who could get here could decide their own destiny.

“Ready!”

Xia Xiao did not speak, but just looked at the city on the mountainside. He stared for a long time, causing Sun Wei to walk up to him. When Lin Tian and the other two got on the carriage again, he spoke:

"Hold on. His Majesty will be here in person. This is not the time for you to show off. Don't let your impulse ruin everyone's expectations of you."

Along the way, Sun Wei rarely talked to Xia Xiao. He didn't want Lin Tian and the others to feel that he was being unfair, but now he couldn't help but remind them. Every action of Xia Xiao now was crucial, affecting not only the Xia family, but also the Su family, General Lin Tian who had spoken for him, and even the emperor, and the entire Great Xia Dynasty.

There was an unwavering light in the depths of Xia Xiao's eyes. He was very calm and would not make such a low-level mistake.

"Set off!"

The carriage continued to move forward on the mountain road, getting closer and closer to Wanling City!
