"Can I leave?"
Zhao Feiyan asked softly.
When Ye Xuan heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes and asked in surprise, "Where are you going?"
"I … I want to return to the sect," Zhao Feiyan said timidly. She was a little afraid of Ye Xuan.
"It's too dangerous in the middle of the night. Let's wait until tomorrow. I'll send you back," Ye Xuan said.
Since he had not recovered his strength, he could only borrow a Sky Thunder Eagle from the Sky Branch to fly back to the Soaring Sky Mansion. He could travel with Zhao Feiyan.
"No, thank you …" Zhao Feiyan hurriedly shook her head and got up to leave.
This time, Ye Xuan did not stop her and allowed her to leave. However, not long after Zhao Feiyan left, he got up and followed her.
He could feel that Zhao Feiyan was a little afraid of him, so he could only follow her secretly.
"This girl, isn't she afraid of encountering a mystical beast …"
Ye Xuan was helpless, but his injuries had healed a lot. Although he was moving, he was actually refining the medicinal energy. It was fine as long as he was not in a battle.
Zhao Feiyan was also moving carefully, but she did not notice Ye Xuan who was following her a hundred meters behind.
She ran for about half an hour before stopping to rest.
Just as she sat down, she heard a voice. It was not from Ye Xuan, but from above her.
This frightened her so much that she hurriedly stood up and threw a palm at the sky to illuminate her surroundings.
"Bloodthirsty … Bloodthirsty Spider?"
She could not help but exclaim.
Bloodthirsty Spiders were spiritual beasts comparable to a half-step Origin Core cultivator.
If there was only one, she could still handle it. However, she saw that there were more than ten Bloodthirsty Spiders on the stone wall above her. This was definitely not something she could handle alone.
Immediately, she broke into a run.
Those Bloodthirsty Spiders also began to chase after her.
Fortunately, she was quite fast and managed to open up a distance between them. However, in the next moment, she stopped in her tracks again because there was a strange sound in front of her.
Whoosh!
A palm strike pierced through the sky and illuminated her surroundings.
Zhao Feiyan's face was pale, and her entire body went limp on the ground. She saw that there was an even larger Bloodthirsty Spider in front of her. This was clearly the Bloodthirsty Spider King, a Darkbeast!
She had probably entered the Bloodthirsty Spider's lair.
"It's over …" Ye Zichen muttered under his breath.
Zhao Feiyan was already prepared to die. She watched as the Bloodthirsty Spider, which was bigger than a cow, approached her and raised its two scythe-like front claws.
"Swish!"
The Bloodthirsty Spider King's two claws suddenly swung down. Its speed was so fast that it actually produced a sonic boom.
Zhao Feiyan closed her eyes, unwilling to give up.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked the Bloodthirsty Spider King's two sharp claws.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Xuan Beasts? You're pretty lucky!"
Ye Xuan laughed loudly. He took out the Bahuang Sword and stabbed forward.
"Heavenly Star Sword Art, Starfall!"
"Heavenly Star Sword Art, Meteor Strike!"
"Bang!"
A bright light shone, and Zhao Feiyan suddenly opened her eyes. What she saw was the Bloodthirsty Spider King, which could easily cut her in half, suddenly fell to the ground with its claws facing the sky. It was actually dead.
Not only that, she also saw a familiar figure in front of her. Wasn't this the man who killed her senior brother just now?
After that, she saw Ye Xuan take a big step forward and put away the Bloodthirsty Spider King's body.
"Ding! The host has devoured a Darkbeast's body. The reward is 300,000,000 points!"
"Ding! The host has broken through to the peak of the True Profound Realm!"
Although the value of this Bloodthirsty Spider King's body wasn't high, it still allowed Ye Xuan to break through to the peak of the True Profound Realm.
This was a huge breakthrough, because it meant that Ye Xuan would soon break through to the Half-Step Origin Core realm, or even the Mortal Core realm.
"Concoct the Six Yuan Pill!"
Immediately, Ye Xuan used the materials in his devouring space to concoct a Six Yuan Pill, then he directly put it into his mouth.
When the pill entered his mouth, a notification immediately sounded out in his mind.
"Ding! The host has broken through to the Half-Step Origin Core realm!"
The Half-Step Origin Core realm was just one step away from the Divine Core realm. But, don't forget, Ye Xuan still had a Darkbeast's Inner Core.
When he swallowed the Xuan Beast Inner Core, all the Xuan Qi in his body was converted into Core Essence.
He had just broken through to the Mortal Core realm!
Previously, when he used the Exploding Aperture Skill, the Mortal Core in his body had exploded. But now, he had formed a new Mortal Core.
"Haha, the heavens are really helping me!" Ye Xuan thought to himself.
He laughed out loud three times. He never thought that he would actually be able to encounter a Xuan Beast. It was truly a great feeling.
But, this wasn't the end of their troubles. Because of this, he and Zhao Feiyan entered a nest of Bloodthirsty Spiders. Right now, he could sense that there were more than a hundred Bloodthirsty Spiders gathering around them.
"Fine, I'll take both of you."
Ye Xuan's eyes lit up, then he said, "Feiyan, stay where you are and don't move."
He did not wait for Zhao Feiyan to react. As soon as he finished speaking, he dashed out.
After that, a series of explosions sounded out in the surroundings. The bright light from the explosions was like fireworks, and Zhao Feiyan was stunned by what she saw.
"Who is he?" Zhao Feiyan thought to herself.
Killing the Bloodthirsty Spider King, who was a Mortal Core warrior, in an instant, wasn't something an ordinary man could do. Perhaps there were only a dozen people in the entire Heavenly Yuan Sect who could do this.
In less than a minute, all the Bloodthirsty Spiders were chopped in half by Ye Xuan, and even their corpses and Inner Cores were devoured.
"More than 10 billion Devour Points, not bad!"
Ye Xuan was satisfied with the result.
Although the corpses and Inner Cores of Half-Step Origin Core warriors weren't worth much, there were more than a hundred of them here.
"Alright, all the spiders are gone, don't worry."
Ye Xuan moved next to Zhao Feiyan and gently helped her up.
"Thank you." Zhao Feiyan said gratefully.
She had been saved by Ye Xuan before, and now, she was saved again. Therefore, the fear in her heart had disappeared, and was replaced with gratitude.
"With your strength, it will be difficult for you to walk out of this valley. You should rest for the night. Tomorrow, come with me to a place, then I'll send you back to the Heavenly Yuan Sect."
Ye Xuan said slowly.
"En."
This time, Zhao Feiyan didn't resist.
They left this bloody place and found a place to rest. After that, Ye Xuan took out a pill and threw it over to Zhao Feiyan.
Zhao Feiyan was surprised and asked, "What is this?"
"You'll know after you eat it. Just consider it as returning the pill to you." Ye Xuan replied casually.
"No need, thank you. You saved me just now …" Zhao Feiyan shook her head.
Ye Xuan didn't want to waste time talking nonsense, so he directly threatened her, "Don't give it back to me, or else I'll throw you into the Xuan Beasts' nest."
His tone was firm, as if he was scaring a child.
