Shaluo was still hesitant, after all, she had never heard of any relationship between the Ling family and Xiu Qiyu. Maybe it was just a scam and the Ling family didn't even know that there was such a person as Xiu Qiyu.
Indeed, the Ling family members were all like, "What? Xiu Qiyu, that peerless genius, was in their convoy. How come they didn't know about this?"
"Since you don't want to leave, then stay." No one could see where the dazzling, chilling sword light of death had come from; like the Grim Reaper's scythe, it reaped the lives of many. Everyone had a small red dot between their eyebrows, like a beauty mark, but their life force had vanished. In the blink of an eye, they were swallowed by the invisible flames beneath their feet.
At this moment, Sharo felt as if someone had gripped his throat tightly, fear permeating his entire being. Although he was a sand bandit with countless lives on his hands, he had never encountered such a bizarre and terrifying method of killing, nor this nameless sword light.
This was merely a flash of sword light. Legend has it that even Jing Li couldn't withstand Xiu Qiyu's simultaneous unleashing of ten thousand swords. Xiu Qiyu's reputation as a killing star is definitely not just empty talk.
"I'm leaving, I'm leaving right away, please spare my life, Senior Xiu!"
A cold snort rang out. Did they really think he was just a decoration? Coming and going as they pleased?
Sharo was still quite sensible: "We have disturbed you, senior. It is our fault. Please accept this ring as an apology. We beg you to be merciful and spare our lives."
"Get lost. If there's a next time, you know the consequences." Even after killing more than a dozen people, the snow-white sword light still exuded a menacing aura. Shaluo felt a chill on his neck, fearing that Xiu Qiyu might suddenly decide to strike him, something he would definitely not be able to withstand.
Sharo respectfully put down the ring, whistled, and instantly all the sand bandits wearing red scarves vanished. No one knew how they did it; they simply disappeared without a trace, leaving no trace of their presence.
Ling Yue picked up the spatial ring and looked thoughtfully at the carriage where Ye Xiruo was. Apart from Ye Xiruo, who was a stranger, everyone else in their caravan was someone they knew. Ye Xiruo was Xiu Qiyu, and Xiu Qiyu was a girl, and a very young girl at that.
Ling Yue was completely bewildered, and Ling Xue's cute, round face was also filled with shock. Didn't she say that she was Ye Qi? How did she become Xiu Qiyu? How could this be?
"Xiaoxue, stop talking."
"All teams, move out." The crisis is over, and they must leave immediately.
Ling Yue herself headed towards the carriage where Ye Xiruo was.
Inside the carriage, Ye Xiruo calmly wiped away the blood that kept spilling from the corner of her mouth. Her injuries, which had barely healed by half, were now back to square one, or even worse. Furthermore, the continuous manipulation of the Ice Heart Flame and sword intent had depleted a large amount of her mental energy, and now her forehead was throbbing with pain; she felt like banging her head against a wall. As for true essence, did she even have any left? Manipulating such a vast area of Ice Heart Flame, burning so many people to death, had completely exhausted her true essence. Fortunately, she was quick-witted and had taken out her pills beforehand. Without hesitation, she consumed several Blood-Replenishing Pills, Rejuvenating Pills, Qi-Boosting Pills, and Essence-Nourishing Pills. This was a case of making up for a lack of quality with quantity.
"Miss Ye, are you alright?"
"It's alright, what's wrong?"
"Thank you for saving my life, Miss Ye. This is Sharo's ring and some healing pills."
"Put it down, you've been very kind." Ye Xi knew that her actions would arouse suspicion, and sure enough, Ling Yue, a woman of exceptional intelligence, immediately connected it to her.
After putting down the ring and the pills, Ling Yue sensibly left.
Not knowing how sincere Shaluo was, Ye Xiruo put the spatial ring aside, picked up the pills, which were all ordinary healing pills, not even as good as the ones she had. Ye Xiruo put them aside, closed her eyes, and began to concentrate on healing.
Two days later, the entire convoy finally left the endless desert. Everyone in the convoy cheered. For the past ten days or so, they had been living in constant fear, but now they were finally leaving that land of death.
Even Ling Yue's usually aloof and cold face showed a hint of a smile: "Everyone, keep up the good work! We'll reach Blackrock City in half a day. Let's go into the city and rest for half a day."
Finally, they were about to enter the city. She wondered what the situation was like inside. Ye Xiruo looked at the pale gray sky with a mixture of brightness and sadness. Where was Brother Xiu Qi? When would they be able to meet again?
"Master, my injuries are almost healed. I'm going to find Xiao Yezi."
"You stay here and heal your injuries. Do you know how serious your injuries are? If you don't treat them properly, it will affect your foundation. If that happens, your cultivation will be difficult to improve. How will you face the little girl then?"
"I can't care about that anymore." Xiu Qiyu became stubborn, and Han Tianxun had no way to deal with her.
"You stay here and heal your wounds. I'll go find someone."
"Master, you absolutely cannot get hurt."
“Jing Li has already started searching for people in the Central Continent, so I will start my search from Luoxia Valley. No news right now is the best news. You need to get well so that we can find the little girl sooner.”
"I have caused my master worry; I am an unfilial disciple."
"Alright, alright, meeting you is the worst thing that ever happened to me." With a flash of white light, Han Tianxin disappeared.
"I'm sorry, Master, I have to go find Xiao Yezi."
Master actually set up a barrier, and when he drew his Shadowless Sword, he unleashed a barrage of ten thousand swords, but the barrier remained unmoved, and he was able to break through the Qi barrier.
In the past two days, Xiu Qiyu's power had recovered to 30%, and he successfully opened the ring left behind by Shaluo. Inside were over 100,000 low-grade spirit stones, tens of thousands of mid-grade spirit stones, several thousand high-grade spirit stones, less than a hundred top-grade spirit stones, and some precious spiritual herbs, most of which were grade seven or higher. There were also cultivation manuals, alchemy and weapon crafting techniques, both righteous and unorthodox. There were also some magic weapons, but they were of various kinds and not very high grade. Ye Xiruo planned to sell all of these things and exchange them for spirit stones.
This Sharo is quite shrewd and wealthy. Ah, being a bandit really does have its perks; this casual ring alone yields so many spirit stones—it's so much easier than her alchemy. I'm envious.
Upon arriving in Blackrock City, everyone had to undergo a routine check and disembark. Ye Xiruo also got out of the car, and as soon as she did, the little girl Ling Xue grabbed her arm: "Sister Ye, how are your injuries?"
"Much better."
"Sister Ye, once we get to the city, I'll treat you to something delicious."
"Okay, thank you, Miss."
