473: Angry Yaoguang Saint

“Here…”

Chu Ying took out the two intimate personal garments he had always cherished from his storage ring. They were as thin as cicada wings, carrying a refreshing, subtle fragrance.

As soon as Xi Yao saw them, she snatched them back, her face flushed with embarrassment.

“You, you were so shameless back then…”

Xi Yao bit her lip with her crystal-clear teeth, remembering the incident at Tongtian River, feeling both shy and annoyed.

“If I hadn’t been shameless, I probably wouldn’t have gotten my Xi Yao wife,” Chu Ying laughed heartily, his gaze strange as he said, “Do you think these count as tokens of our love?”

“No!”

Xi Yao gritted her teeth, her eyes, like rippling autumn waves and flowing starlight, held shyness and annoyance.

Chu Ying blinked and suddenly chuckled, “Alright, they don’t count.”

“Then I’ll give you something else.”

Chu Ying then took out an enlightenment tea tree heart, along with a large quantity of Enlightenment Tea leaves.

Seeing the crimson, crystal-like fruit, Xi Yao’s eyes widened in surprise, and she asked, “What is this?”

“The fruit of the Enlightenment Tea Tree, ripened over ten thousand years, and those Enlightenment Tea leaves.”

“Your cultivation Realm can be further improved.”

Chu Ying said softly. Of the ten enlightenment tea tree hearts, he had already given one to Ye Qingxian, leaving nine.

That was a lot, enough for him to share with his confidantes.

Hearing about the Enlightenment Tea Tree, Xi Yao was even more astonished, her eyes sparkling with wonder: “You didn’t get this from Immortality Mountain, did you?”

“That’s right. I originally wanted to dig up the entire Enlightenment Tea Tree, but unfortunately, I don’t have a suitable spatial treasure for planting it.”

Chu Ying smiled.

“I don’t want it, you should take it yourself.” Although Xi Yao was very tempted and truly needed it, she didn’t want to accept Chu Ying’s gift in this way, especially since Chu Ying had also mentioned that he had other Dao Companions by his side.

If he gave it to her, what about the other women?

“I have eight more enlightenment tea tree hearts like this; just take it if I give it to you.”

Chu Ying then displayed the other eight fruits, leaving Xi Yao dumbfounded. She stood there for a long time before saying, “You truly are ‘inhumanly rich’.”

“Is my wife scolding me?” Chu Ying couldn’t help but look wronged.

Xi Yao bit her lip, gave a soft hum, and then unceremoniously accepted the enlightenment tea tree heart. She was currently only at the Three-Step Saint Lord Realm, and consuming it now would be too wasteful.

Although she felt a bit shy about Chu Ying’s address, she inexplicably felt happy.

Seeing this, Chu Ying smiled and teased, “I came all this way to save you, and I gave you such a precious item. Shouldn’t you show some appreciation?”

Upon hearing this, Xi Yao couldn’t help but cast a flirtatious glance, a look full of charm, resentment, and shyness.

“You lecher,” she softly cursed, then said, “I haven’t fully recovered from my injuries yet. Let me Cultivate for a bit first, okay?”

With that, she tried to get up from Chu Ying’s lap.

“Let me help you heal,”

Chu Ying, however, held her arm and smiled.

Xi Yao’s face flushed. She wondered how he would help her heal? She couldn’t help but think of some embarrassing things.

Chu Ying, however, directly activated the heaven mending stone within his Dantian, and a mysterious, gentle energy immediately surged from his body into Xi Yao’s, rapidly healing her injuries.

At the same time, it also activated the power of the Saint Elixir Xi Yao had just consumed, nourishing her body and cultivation, healing her injuries and strengthening her foundation.

Feeling the changes within her body, Xi Yao said nothing more, quietly leaning against Chu Ying’s chest.

She had never imagined that one day she would truly be able to become Dao Companions with the person in her heart.

As the Yaoguang Saintess, it was difficult for her to even consider such a thought, because her status dictated that she had little choice in her personal life, and the only thing she could do was remain alone.

...

As the two listened to each other’s heartbeats,

The Yaoguang Holy Son had already arrived outside the White Bone Stone Forest Forbidden Ground. Sensing the lingering aura of the Devouring Sword, his eyes were as dark as water, and a terrifying demonic energy surged from his body.

He entered the White Bone Stone Forest to investigate, disregarding the dangers within. The Devouring Sword’s might had swept through once more, once again enraging the sleeping entity deep within, and a phantom palm struck out towards him.

The Yaoguang Holy Son coldly snorted, activating the Devouring Sword to shatter the palm, and then, equally enraged, he fled.

“Damn it, they’ve already escaped!”

“And that guy, he’s truly despicable!”

The Yaoguang Holy Son not only detected the aura of the Devouring Sword here, which was definitely an important part of the complete Devouring Sword, but he also caught a wisp of Chu Ying’s aura!

Had he known this earlier, he wouldn’t have retreated a single step!

At this moment, the Yaoguang Holy Son’s expression was grim, and he could only temporarily leave the White Bone Stone Forest.

But not long after, he encountered other Cultivators, though not Chu Ying, but Calamity Child Du Mao and Ancient Sacred Body Gu Chen, who had escaped from the Primordial Divine Ant race’s spatial Realm.

After Du Mao and Gu Chen escaped, they didn’t immediately leave Immortality Mountain. They also explored Immortality Mountain, seeking opportunities, as it was a rare chance to be there.

“Gu, I still can’t swallow this anger!”

Gu Chen clenched his fists. The heavenly god horn, which he had finally obtained, was snatched away by that Chu Ying. He couldn’t help but feel indignant and displeased just thinking about it.

Du Mao also sighed from the bottom of his heart: “This person has always been at odds with me; he is a mortal enemy, but even I have no way to deal with him.”

“I didn’t expect that in such a short time, he would be able to grow to such a terrifying extent.”

Du Mao was actually still reeling from shock, his heart filled with panic and fear.

Because back in the Tongtian River, he also participated in the struggle for the hilt of the incomplete Emperor Weapon, the Devouring Sword, but he ultimately lost, so the Devouring Sword hilt is very likely in Chu Ying’s hands.

This meant that the other party possessed an incomplete supreme emperor weapon. Although he had the Calamity Tower, he might still be suppressed by the other party.

Especially when there was a huge disparity between his strength and the opponent’s, there was immense danger.

And as for this Gu Chen, if he hadn’t integrated that Holy Body bone, he wouldn’t possess his current combat power. That was his combat power, not his cultivation.

Gu Chen’s expression was cold: “I must find a way to reclaim the treasures in this person’s hands!”

As the two walked, they encountered several dangers within Immortality Mountain. Exploring through the dense gray mist, they suddenly met the Yaoguang Holy Son.

Gu Chen naturally didn’t recognize the Yaoguang Holy Son. He frowned, sensing a threat from the other party.

Du Mao, however, narrowed his eyes.

“Yaoguang Holy Son?”

The Yaoguang Holy Son also hadn’t expected to encounter a Cultivator he knew in Immortality Mountain.

“Child of Calamity?”

The Yaoguang Holy Son’s eyes flickered. If he could devour this person’s Origin, it would be a good gain. However, he immediately saw Gu Chen next to Du Mao.

This person’s aura…

“Hmph! This person is very secretive! His cultivation has reached the Nine-Step Saint Lord Realm!”

Gu Chen suddenly spoke, directly exposing the Yaoguang Holy Son’s true strength.

Upon hearing this, Du Mao was utterly dumbfounded, his words even stuttering: “Gu, what are you saying?”

“He’s a Nine-Step Saint Lord?”

Du Mao couldn’t believe it. Back in Calamity Ancient City, this person almost died by his hand. Although it was due to his scheme, if Chu Ying hadn’t interfered, it might have actually happened.

Moreover, when they met again in the Great Dream Immortal Mausoleum, this Yaoguang Holy Son didn’t seem to possess much astonishing strength in his eyes.

How could he be a Nine-Step Saint Lord now?

Is there any justice left in this world?
