Chapter 31: The Dawn of a Turning Point (I)

Previous Chapter

"Ahem...... Unexpectedly, Lingqing, who was famous throughout the Dongyi Kingdom, was so terrifying, I am afraid that it would not take half a month to break through to the Quadruple Qi Refining Realm. After deciding to stay away from Lingqing, Mingyi sighed slowly. Thinking back to the whole process of meeting Lingqing, Ming Yi was still a little frightened at this moment...... Now I can only blame Xu Ya for provoking Lingqing at the beginning, and she went up to dissuade her......

"I didn't expect it...... Lingqing, the nineteenth princess of the famous Dongyi Kingdom, would have such terrifying talent and strength...... I always thought I was very talented. But ......" Luo Qianyue sighed in a weak voice.

Since cultivating at the age of eleven, Luo Qianyue has rarely understood things that are not related to herself, and her cultivation path has always been pure and abstinent, and she has finally entered the realm well. At the beginning of cultivation, it only took three years and eleven months to break through to the First Refinement Qi Realm. This talent is not much worse than Ye Liao. It is even more eternal in the kingdom of Western Earth. It's a pity that this time the final selection is stronger than before, no matter how talented Luo Qianyue is, but with her current strength, it may be difficult to have outstanding performance......

"The eighteen-year-old Triple Refining Qi Realm peak...... How could Lingqing's talent become famous in the past two years? Unless...... The Dongyi royal family has been concealing Lingqing's talent to enter the realm...... "Ming Yu clenched his fists, and his face was extremely ugly.

Xiao Jingxi didn't marvel at Lingqing's talent like Mingyi and Mingyu. Her attention was focused on Luo Qianyue: "Qianyue, it's okay." I'll bandage you first. When Luo Qianyue was caught just now, she, as Luo Qianyue's best sister, was extremely worried.

"Hmm. Excuse me, Shizushi. Luo Qianyue smiled apologetically at Xiao Jingxi...... If she hadn't been caught, Xiao Jingxi wouldn't have been so worried.

"Look at you, you're saying that again. Don't forget, we're good sisters. Xiao Jingxi smiled faintly and responded softly. Then he asked Mingyi, "Mingyi Gongzi, we should be in the core area now." Why are most of the demonic beasts encountered in the first and second level of Qi Refining Realm? This kind of performance, the top ten may be very reluctantly ......"

Mingyi nodded in agreement: "Indeed...... After all, our small team is only four people, and the other team's ...... Either they are extremely strong or numerous...... But for our team, one more mediocre teammate or one less...... There is no difference. What we need is instant combat power like Lingqing. And...... I feel that Lingqing's squad is very likely to occupy the top ten. Lingqing she ...... More likely to be the number one ...... in this selection"

"Impossible...... Our team is not as good as Lingqing's. But it's not too much weaker, and if she can take the first place, then we must also be in the top ten. Hearing Ming Yi's words, Ming Yu put on a look of "shouldn't be".

"Yu, you have to understand. The final selection depends on your performance during this period, not on the strength of your cultivation. Besides, it's not for nothing that Lingqing can win the first place. Just now, I felt that there seemed to be a fourfold Qi Refining Realm beast crystal on her body...... At that moment, she might have planned to kill us...... Luckily, I remembered that I still had an elixir that was strong enough to make her heart flutter. ”

Ming Yi's words made Luo Qianyue and the others gasp...... It is absolutely impossible to obtain the beast crystals of the Quadruple Qi Refining Realm by picking them up, and it is impossible to bring them with them before the selection for the sake of pretending, so there is no point at all. The only explanation was that Ling Qing had hunted and killed a Fourfold Qi Refining Realm Demonic Beast......

The concept of hunting the demonic beasts of the Quadruple Qi Refining Realm, Luo Qianyue and Xiao Jingxi may be vague, but Ming Yi and Ming Yu are clear. Even if the two of them were at their peak to face a Quadruple Qi Refining Realm Demonic Beast now, they could only injure it, but there was no possibility of hunting it.

"No! We can't lose our fighting spirit! Ming Yu Gongzi is right about one thing, the strength of our team, even if we can't beat Miss Lingqing's team, we won't be a big step behind. At the very least, we have to try to find opportunities for 'performance'. Luo Qianyue shook her head, stretched out her little hand, and said seriously.

Luo Qianyue's words were like a reassuring agent, which quickly calmed everyone's mentality. The scene that had just fallen silent was rejuvenated.

Xiao Jingxi put his palm on top of Luo Qianyue, and when Ming Yi and Ming Yu saw it, they also came over and stretched out their hands......

"Come on!" the four shouted in unison. Although they can't meet high-level demonic beasts, they won't be as discouraged as they were just now.

At the same time, in the north of the core area, Ye Liao and Xu Ya walked slowly one after the other.

It's not that Ye Liao wants Xu Ya to follow him, it will only make his heart that can't calm down even more "chaotic". But under Xu Ya's "endless", Ye Liao finally compromised.

Along the way, there was no communication between the two, only Xu Ya in the back from time to time let out a few pleasant sounds of "hee-hee". If Luo Qianyue saw it, she wouldn't believe that Xu Ya in front of her was the same person as Xu Ya, who was aggressive in front of her before. Ming Yu was right, Xu Ya's gentleness was only presented to Ye Liao.

Xu Ya followed behind Ye Liao, her pupils never left Ye Liao, at the age of nineteen, she was like a little girl facing the person she had loved for a long time, and she couldn't pretend to be anything other than him in her eyes......

"Xiao Liao, try this. I don't know when, Xu Ya had a small bright red fruit in her hand, and said softly.

Ye Liao hesitated for a moment, but finally snatched the fruit from Xu Ya's hand.

"How does it feel. She still looked at him, refusing to look away.

"Also...... Good. Ye Liao turned his head and met Xu Ya's gaze. Then, involuntarily avoided. At this time, it seems that Ye Liao's previous "determination" was like a fart at all. But he now understands that there is no need to be angry with Xu Ya for hatred with the Xu family. Although she is also a member of the Xu family...... Even if she can't respond to her own thoughts, she can't pretend to be stupid to ignore them. The only way is to make it clear to her in the future......

Getting Ye Liao's answer, Xu Ya smiled happily. It's just an ordinary thing, but it can make waves in her heart......

The two came to an open space, Ye Liao sat cross-legged, and said, "Excuse me......

In just four words, Xu Ya could understand what Ye Liao meant. It's not that Xu Ya and Ye Liao have some extraordinary tacit understanding, it's just that the deeper the feelings, the more they will care about a person, care about everything about him, and easily understand what he wants to express in every sentence......

Xu Ya held the sword, vigilant of every move around her, and Ye Liao also took out the beast crystal with peace of mind to stabilize the injury in his knee.

After a while, Ye Liao isolated his five senses and concentrated on "guiding" the power of the beast crystal to stabilize his injuries. Now in Ye Liao's state, even if someone refines the source qi beside him and kills him, Ye Liao will not notice a single thing.

In the past, Ye Liao couldn't concentrate on stabilizing his injuries as he did now, the huge El Mosen was in danger, and no one was sure what would happen in the next moment, so Ye Liao had always been vigilant and stabilized his injuries. It was this state of distraction that made it take an hour for Ye Liao to stabilize his injury every time. However, in this closed state, he stabilized his injuries much faster. Half an hour...... No, maybe two quarters of an hour will be enough...... It is precisely because of Xu Ya's protection that he will close his five senses and stabilize his injuries.

Under his concentration, the energy contained in the beast crystal was quickly "guided" out by Ye Liao, and the originally bright beast crystal gradually faded......

Two quarters of an hour passed quickly under the calm, and Ye Liao, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, slowly opened his eyes. At that moment, the comfort in my knees came from my nerves, and I couldn't help but feel a little excited.

In the Qi Refining Realm, they did not have the ability to fly, and relied on their legs. For Ye Liao, who has a knee injury, a long time of running will be "full of flaws", if he encounters danger, he can't tell the winner in a short time, then Ye Liao will slowly fall into the danger of disadvantage. You can see how important it is to stabilize the knee injury.

When he came back to his senses, Ye Liao noticed that Xu Ya had fallen asleep leaning on his shoulder. As for when he fell asleep, Ye Liao, who was in a closed state of five senses, would not know at all.

"Shouldn't I be glad about my ......luck," Ye Liao whispered to himself.

And less than two hundred meters away from Ye Liao, there was a corpse of a demonic beast......

He didn't wake up Xu Ya, so he let Xu Ya lean on. And Xu Ya's breath also floated around Ye Liao......

"Sister Ya, I know your feelings, but I really can't respond...... Nor will they have the courage to reject you before you...... Only when you are asleep can I dare to 'tell' my thoughts to you who are asleep. You're a very, very good big sister to me, and I've asked myself if I have that kind of affection for you...... But ......" Ye Liao looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky, and sighed: "If one day, I seek revenge on your father, or maybe kill your father with my own hands, how will you think of me." At that time, will you still be the old sister Ya......"

Suddenly, feeling Xu Ya, who was leaning on his shoulder, moved, Ye Liao's heart jumped suddenly. Fortunately, Xu Ya did not wake up, and Ye Liao also breathed a sigh of relief......

But for some reason, it was obviously a calm night, but Ye Liao's heart was a little uneasy and worried......

"It should be that I am too worried...... although Ye Liao said this, the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense.

It didn't take long for Xu Ya, who was leaning on Ye Liao's shoulder to fall asleep, to wake up...... As soon as I opened my eyes, Ye Liao's voice came: "Sleeping like this, if it weren't for the fact that I didn't deal with my injuries for a long time, we wouldn't know how we would die......"

Xu Ya didn't refute, but said with a smile: "Xiao Liao, although your cultivation is only a heavy Qi Refining Realm, and you seem to be a little weaker than me on the surface, I know that you are definitely not weak." If you really encounter danger, with your character, you will definitely protect me desperately~"

"Hmph, it's a dream. Ye Liao immediately replied, but his voice was a little weaker than just now......

"Now that you're awake, let's go. Remember, I only thought you would be useful. Ye Liao threw away the two beast crystals that didn't have much energy. The moment he got up, Ye Liao's eyebrows jumped suddenly......

Directly behind him, a powerful wave was rapidly coming towards him......
