“Ugh~!”
In the trial world of the Chaos Pearl, Zhou Yuanyuan saw the tyrannical side of Taoist Baopu through the "window" created by the Chaos Pearl, and she almost vomited.
The timing of Taoist Baopu's return was too coincidental. After Zhou Yuanyuan sent Zhou Xi into the trial world of the Chaos Pearl, just as she was about to leave, Taoist Baopu entered the cave.
Zhou Yuanyuan had no choice but to enter the trial world again.
In the trial world, Zhou Xi was standing in the osmanthus forest, being pulled by the old tree to chat.
"Young man, who brought you to our clan? Was it Xiaoshu? Are you Xiaoshu's boyfriend? I, Old Guishu, tell you~! You can't bully our Xiaoshu, otherwise, our Guishu clan will not let you go." Old Shu's voice was as deep as ever, but the meaning of his words left Zhou Xi confused.
Little tree? Who was that little tree? And a boyfriend? Why would he choose a tree demon as his girlfriend? As a child, Zhou Xi had heard legends about spirits. In Zhou Xi's mind, a talking old tree was no different from a man-eating spirit.
"Young man, if you don't say anything, I'll take it as your agreement! Our little tree is the most beautiful and kindest girl in the world. You, young man, look very energetic. The most important thing is that you should be caring. Don't you humans have a saying? Only men who listen to their wives will be successful. Young man, you can't learn some bad habits of humans. Treat our little tree well, hehe..." The old tree was amused by Zhou Xi's dazed look and laughed.
Zhou Xi looked around and found himself on a hillside. Aside from the old, talking tree, all the trees around him were of the same species. Is this the young lady's personal space? It can hold living people and plant things. It's truly amazing!
Before Zhou Xi opened his mouth to speak to the old tree, Zhou Yuanyuan suddenly appeared in the osmanthus forest, with her back to Zhou Xi.
"Little tree, little tree, you're here! I'm chatting with your boyfriend!" When the old tree saw Zhou Yuanyuan, it waved its branches happily, and the shaking leaves on its head made a rustling sound.
"Grandpa Laoshu, don't talk nonsense, this is my Grandpa Xi." Zhou Yuanyuan was shocked by Laoshu's word "boyfriend". Grandpa Xi was already quite old, so he couldn't be her boyfriend, right?
"Little Tree, little tree, don't be shy. The boy is so handsome. I won't laugh at you." Lao Shu thought Zhou Yuanyuan was shy and quickly added.
Is this young man really handsome? Zhou Yuanyuan was a little confused. Zhou Xi is an old man in his sixties. No matter how handsome he is, he can't be called a young man, right?
At this moment, Zhou Xi heard Zhou Yuanyuan's voice, turned around and called out, "Young Miss."
"Xi...Xixi...Xi Grandpa Xi?" Zhou Yuanyuan looked at the handsome guy in front of her, and her mouth was so wide open that an egg could almost fit in.
As Zhou Xi immersed himself in the medicinal concoction, his face and body were covered in blood, and Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't even discern his features. After entering the Trial World, Zhou Xi, due to the absorption of the medicinal properties, underwent a profound transformation. His physical condition had reached its peak perfection. He looked like a young man in his twenties. His facial features, in particular, had undergone a significant transformation. It could be said that Zhou Xi, previously a man of average appearance, now possessed a rare beauty after his successful physical training.
"Miss, what's wrong? Is there something on my face?" Zhou Xi felt uneasy when he was looked at by Zhou Yuanyuan. Could he be disfigured? Thinking of the pain like a steel knife scraping flesh and bones when he was doing body training before, Zhou Xi couldn't help but shudder. Forget it, in that situation, it's good enough to be able to keep his life, so be disfigured!
"It's okay, Grandpa Xi, we'll talk later. Someone is coming." Although Zhou Yuanyuan was very curious why Zhou Xi seemed like a different person, she didn't have time to gossip now. Taoist Baopu had already entered the secret room.
Through the "window", Zhou Yuanyuan saw Taoist Baopu kill Xiuzhu in an instant. Before Zhou Yuanyuan could decide whether to come out and fight with Taoist Baopu, Taoist Baopu raised his hand, and the piece of flesh that Xiuzhu had turned into was swept into the pool by the gust of wind from his sleeves.
More blood and flesh were swirling in the potion in the pool, and the smell of blood in the secret room became stronger.
"Ugh!" This time, Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't hold it in any longer and vomited violently while hugging the tree. This Taoist Baopu's methods were too brutal. Not only did he kill someone, but he also turned them into a pile of minced meat. How terrifying!
"Little Tree, little tree, are you okay?" The old tree stretched out its branches and touched Zhou Yuanyuan's head with concern. The old tree always remembered Zhou Yuanyuan's kindness to their tribe! Seeing Zhou Yuanyuan vomiting so uncomfortably, the old tree felt uncomfortable too.
"Lao Shu, it's okay. It's too disgusting. I'll be fine after I spit it out." After vomiting for a while, Zhou Yuanyuan finally regained her spirits and put her eyes back to the "window" to watch Taoist Baopu's next move.
After Baopu Taoist killed Xiuzhu, the depression in his heart seemed to dissipate a little. Looking at his hands covered in blood, Baopu Taoist's fingers flew and pinched the "water-drawing technique".
A stream of water appeared out of nowhere in front of Taoist Baopu. Taoist Baopu stretched his hand under the water. In less than two minutes, the water had washed away the remaining blood on Taoist Baopu's hand.
Seeing the calm Baopu Taoist, Zhou Yuanyuan felt a surge of vigilance. After killing someone, the Baopu Taoist's expression remained unchanged. It seemed this wasn't the first time he'd been involved in a murder. This Baopu Taoist made Zhou Yuanyuan feel very dangerous.
Taoist Baopu stared at the pond for a while, hesitating whether to go in and fish out Zhou Xi's remains. After thinking about it, Taoist Baopu decided not to do it, and walked out of the cave leisurely with his hands behind his back.
Taoist Baopu believed in his own eyes and judgment. Without chalcedony, Zhou Xi would definitely not be able to survive.
Taoist Baopu's pace quickened, a fire burning within him. His once-sure-fire bodybuilding project had failed, leaving him deeply displeased. After more than a month of hard work, Zhou Xi became more than just a physical figure in Taoist Baopu's mind; he represented his hope.
If Baopu Taoist's secret method of physical training could truly succeed, he could be called the "originator" of the resurgence of physical cultivation. A body comparable to a magical treasure is the dream of every cultivator. If Zhou Xi succeeded, Baopu Taoist could use this secret method to obtain even more cultivation resources within the Yushan Sect.
But all of this was destroyed by the hands of a servant. It is impossible to say that Taoist Baopu did not care.
