In the Hidden Dragon Hall and Nourishing Hall.
Ye Yang lay on the couch, his eyes tightly closed, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. The Azure Soul Sword leaned at an angle beside him, and he bore multiple injuries, particularly a penetrating wound in his chest that had not healed for a long time. Blood flowed from it, leaving Ye Yang's face extremely pale.
Yan Yao desperately pressed her palm against Ye Yang's wound, tears streaming down her face. Ignoring the blood staining her fair hands, she turned to Elder Qingxuan with a pleading look and said, "Master, please save my brother! His breath is growing weaker and weaker. My True Qi cannot penetrate his body at all; I can't help him even a little..."
Holding a staff, Azure Xuan nodded slightly and focused his True Qi to assess Ye Yang's condition. He said, "Xuan Lian's True Qi is very difficult to dominate. Although Zi Yu won the battle against Undead Peng Cheng, it was a pyrrhic victory. He has accumulated very violent Immortal Secret Technique True Qi within him, which has been stirred by Xuan Lian's Heavenly Power, preventing him from waking up."
Nearby, the Flying Scythe General remarked, "Young Master fought fiercely against Undead Peng Cheng and then battled Xuan Lian of Ascend to Godhood. He has truly endured too much..."
"Ugh..."
On one side of the hall, Yun Xiaoxi climbed up from the couch. Ignoring the bloodstains on her body, she leaned on the Snowdrift Sword and walked over step by step with a worried expression. "Elder Qingxuan, if what you say is true, then Zi Yu's injuries must be very serious. Can he really be saved?"
Elder Qingxuan smiled and replied, "Of course he can, little girl. I am someone who has ascended to Initial Deity..."
Yun Xiaoxi pouted and scolded, "Then why are you wasting time? Hurry up and treat Zi Yu! If you don't act soon, his life might be in danger!"
The Flying Scythe General was shocked. "Yun Xiaoxi, you!"
The Flying Scythe General clearly did not expect Yun Xiaoxi to dare speak so disrespectfully to Azure Xuan, who was an Initial Deity. It should be noted that throughout the thousands of years across the three realms, very few had ascended to godhood, and Azure Xuan was one of them. Those who ascended to godhood were revered by beings of the three realms for their absolute strength—something that a mere human like Yun Xiaoxi could not comprehend. If it had been another Initial Deity, they might have unleashed their wrath due to Yun Xiaoxi's words.
However, Azure Xuan merely smiled gently with a kind expression and said, "Little Xi, I am very pleased that Zi Yu has a companion like you. But you must understand that Zi Yu is my disciple; how could I stand by without treating him? It's just that Zi Yu is also struggling. I can sense that his Soul Core is slowly pulsating; he is generating his own True Qi to resist Peng Cheng's undead power and Xuan Lian's Initial Divine Power. If Zi Yu can rely on his own strength to expel the True Qi within him, then his power will soar tremendously. Do you understand?"
Yun Xiaoxi's cheeks flushed slightly as she said, "So the Elder is doing this for Zi Yu's sake... Then please forgive me for being rude; I am truly worried about him..."
Elder Qingxuan chuckled lightly. "I understand."
Yun Xiaoxi: "..."
Night.
Ye Yang remained furrowed in thought, his body burning with heat, as fine flames flickered around him, radiating intense warmth.
At this moment, Ye Yang could hear everything around him but was unable to awaken. Xuan Lian's Heavenly Power was incredibly domineering, sealing his vital energy and preventing him from waking up. The Soul Core was enveloped by an armor-like Initial Divine Power, and these overwhelmingly powerful forces sealed Ye Yang's abilities. Meanwhile, Ye Yang slowly derived thin, blade-like Fire God Fragment True Qi from the Soul Core to gradually slice through the Initial Divine Power that had been forced into his body.
This was an extremely long and dangerous process. The derived True Qi had to divide some of its energy to cut through the divine power while preserving most of it to protect the Soul Core's vital energy. Xuan Lian was exceedingly insidious; the remaining power was searching for an opportunity. If Ye Yang made even a slight mistake, those domineering Initial Deity powers would infiltrate his soul space without restraint, and at that point, even a deity would be powerless to save him.
The struggle continued until dawn broke in the sky. Ye Yang was already drenched in sweat. Fortunately, Elder Qingxuan had sealed the wound with the same type of Initial Divine Power, stopping the bleeding; otherwise, just losing blood would have been enough to drain Ye Yang's life energy.
...
It was noon.
"Ah..."
Ye Yang sighed softly and finally regained consciousness, stretching his body and sitting up from the bed.
"Ah, brother is awake! Brother is awake!" Yan Yao exclaimed with delight.
On the other side, Yun Xiaoxi's graceful figure appeared. Her injuries were much lighter than Ye Yang's, and the bruises within her body had already dissipated on their own.
"Zi Yu, how do you feel?" Yun Xiaoxi smiled and said, "You were unconscious for nearly a day; I thought you wouldn't make it..."
Ye Yang pouted, "How could I not make it?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Yun Xiaoxi's clothing; the scars from yesterday's fierce battle were still visible. Her clothes were torn, revealing a patch of smooth skin. A pair of delicate curves peeked out slightly, their fullness and perkiness captivating. Ye Yang found it hard to look away, lost in thought.
"Hey, what are you looking at?"
Yun Xiaoxi hurriedly covered her chest and shot a reproachful glare at Ye Yang, saying, "Hmph, waking up and being so unruly? Elder Qingxuan said there’s a lunch banquet at Fireworks Hall. If you can make it in time, let’s go eat together, how about that?"
"Gurgle..."
Ye Yang's stomach conveniently growled at that moment. He quickly patted his belly and laughed, "If anyone says that Starry Sky Experts don’t need to eat, I’ll stab them with my sword..."
Yun Xiaoxi chuckled, "Then hurry up! You're soaked in sweat and smell terrible. Why not take a shower before we eat?"
"No, let's eat first. I'm starving; otherwise, I won't have the energy to shower!" Ye Yang replied decisively.
Yun Xiaoxi: "..."
Yan Yao smiled gently, supporting Ye Yang as they walked side by side with Yun Xiaoxi toward Fireworks Hall.
...
Fireworks Hall is actually the kitchen of Hidden Dragon Hall. Although Elder Qingxuan is an outsider, a group of Dragon Armored Warriors still need to eat. Nearly a hundred of them are passionate about cooking, so they gather and hunt various rare vegetables and beast meats from the Azure Cloud Mountain Range, and buy ingredients from nearby towns. Thus, Fireworks Hall is always bustling with activity throughout the year, becoming the dining place for everyone at Hidden Dragon Hall. Sometimes even Elder Qingxuan visits to taste the delicacies.
"Young Master has arrived!"
Several Dragon Armored Warriors quickly knelt on one knee to welcome Ye Yang and the others into the hall.
Before them stood a massive octagonal table carved from glazed stone, laden with various delicacies—rare fruits gathered from deep within the Azure Cloud Mountain Range, delicious steamed fish from deep pools, and beautifully roasted legs of Azure Wind Antelope. Everything looked so wonderful that Ye Yang almost drooled.
"Where's Master? Should we call him to join us?" Ye Yang asked.
One of the Dragon Armored Warriors immediately shook his head with a smile and said, "No need; Master doesn’t have lunch today. This meal was originally prepared for Yun Xiaoxi and Yan Yao. We didn’t expect Young Master to wake up so soon. Speaking of which, Young Master is benefiting from Yun Xiaoxi and Yan Yao's presence!"
Ye Yang couldn't help but laugh, "Oh, I see! Then I won’t hold back!"
Sitting down, he grabbed the chopsticks and began to feast.
Yun Xiaoxi and Yan Yao also sat down, eating the dishes delicately. Soon after, the two girls stared at Ye Yang, who had already devoured more than ten buns and seemed as if he could never get enough. He had consumed most of the Azure Wind Antelope and a whole Roasted Wild Suckling Pig by himself.
"Brother, why are you..." Yan Yao whispered, "Why are you suddenly eating so much today?"
Ye Yang tore into the leg meat of the Azure Wind Antelope and said, "I don't know, I just feel so hungry. My stomach is empty, and I want to eat more. I'm so hungry!"
Yun Xiaoxi widened her beautiful eyes in surprise: "Could it be that Xuan Lian has such powers that with one slap, he turned you into a glutton?"
Ye Yang grinned: "Who knows? Uh... these dishes are so delicious. Who's the chef? Come back with me to Qi State later for some good food!"
Yun Xiaoxi replied speechlessly: "Aren't you the one asking them to make it delicious and spicy for you?"
...
At that moment, a hearty laugh came from outside the door: "Good, Zi Yu has woken up. I didn't expect you to enter the 'Empty Valley' realm of cultivation that is hard for others to attain!"
