Seeing this person, Shopkeeper Sun did not rush to greet him. Instead, he called out from behind the counter: "So it's young master Ye Xiao. Are you here to buy healing medicine again?
It's not that I want to criticize you, but the Ye family finally managed to get some monthly allowance. Why don't you use it to buy some cultivation pills?
Within the younger generation of the Ye family, your talent isn't the worst. But you're still only at the Blood Condensation realm.
Why pay such a large price for your incurable father? "
Ye Xiao bitterly smiled: "But he is still my father. As his son, I can't just watch him die like this."
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Sun couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that this child was hopeless.
The other party was a branch family disciple of the Ji State's Ye family. But his life within the family wasn't very good.
Originally, a branch family disciple was also surnamed Ye. Every month, they would give the family some offerings. Supporting himself was not a problem.
But because his father was heavily injured during a family mission, both his legs were crippled and he suffered internal injuries. Thus, he became a cripple. He completely relied on Ye Xiao to support him. The monthly offerings from the family were not even enough to buy medicine.
To drag down one's own cultivation because of a cripple, from Shopkeeper Sun's point of view was not worth it.
But since they weren't related, Shopkeeper Sun didn't say much. He only lightly shook his head: "Alright, consider yourself lucky. I recently received a batch of good goods. Blood Returning Pills from the Northern Yan Zhen Wu Hall. I'll sell them to you for a hundred bottles. Although they are Second Revolution pills, their medicinal effects are close to the third revolution. "
Ye Xiao hesitated for a moment, but still took out the money. "Then I'll have to trouble Shopkeeper Sun to give me three bottles."
As he took out the money, Ye Xiao accidentally knocked over a blood red bead. Picking it up, he curiously asked: "What is this?"
Shopkeeper Sun glanced at the Blood Spirit Bead and said without a care: "Just a small toy I received. It doesn't have much use. If you want it, I'll give it to you. It's quite nice to embed on a weapon."
If Ye Xiao hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten about it.
Afterwards, Shopkeeper Sun also looked through the records, but did not find anything similar. He thought that it was some sort of natural or accidental stone.
When some mystic realms collapsed, there would be spatial fluctuations, or the various forces produced by experts fighting. It was very easy to transform some ordinary stones and metals into strange things, which were useless and worthless.
Not long ago in the Northern Yan's Extreme North, a secret territory had collapsed. Shopkeeper Sun had assumed that this thing was formed because of the collapse of that secret territory.
Moreover, this thing was not as shiny as a gemstone. Even if he sold it to those rich merchants, they would not buy it. It was just a piece of trash.
Ye Xiao received the pill and placed the Bloodsoul Bead into his robes, "Then I'll have to thank Shopkeeper Sun."
Ye Xiao took the pills and returned to the Ye Clan. He took a deep breath. To be honest, he didn't like this place.
Although this was the family that gave birth to him and raised him, Ye Xiao always felt a sense of oppression here, so much so that he couldn't breathe.
After he walked into the Ye Clan, Ye Xiao carefully walked by the side as if he was afraid of something.
Right at this moment, a teasing voice sounded out abruptly. "Oh oh oh, isn't this Cousin Brother Ye Xiao? What? You went to buy medicine for that crippled father of yours again?"
A young master in embroidered robes walked over with a few Ye Clan disciples. His strength couldn't be considered to be strong, yet he was stronger than Ye Xiao, as he'd already attained the Congenital Realm.
This person was called Ye Ting, the Second Young Master of the Ye Clan's direct descendant. Compared to Ye Xiao who was a branch descendant, even though both of them were surnamed Ye, their statuses were like the difference between the heavens and the earth.
At this moment, when he heard Ye Ting say his father was crippled, Ye Xiao couldn't help but grit his teeth and clench his fists tightly, yet he didn't dare make a move, nor did he dare reply.
Because countless experiences in the past told him that not to mention being unable to defeat Ye Ting, even if he were to reply, the consequences would be even more severe.
But even if he didn't speak, Ye Ting didn't let him off.
As he looked at Ye Xiao's clenched fists, Ye Ting sneered with disdain. "What? You still want to hit me? Come on, go ahead and hit me! "
After walking over to stand before Ye Xiao, Ye Ting slapped Ye Xiao's face in an insulting manner, and his expression was arrogant to the limit, causing the people behind him to start ridiculing loudly as well.
The flames of rage in Ye Xiao's eyes blazed. But he'd just raised his fist when Ye Ting kicked him flying, and then Ye Ting stepped on Ye Xiao's hand. Amidst Ye Xiao's cries of pain, Ye Ting withdrew the medicinal pill in Ye Xiao's pocket and sized it up before saying with disdain, "Blood Recovery Pill? The clan didn't give you allowance for you to raise a cripple, you're truly a disgrace to my Ye Clan. "
As he spoke, Ye Ting directly tossed the medicinal pill to the side, causing the porcelain bottle to shatter and the medicinal pill to scatter all over the ground.
When he saw this scene, Ye Xiao immediately stood up and carefully picked up those medicinal pills.
Ye Ting didn't stop him this time, and he just roared with laughter with the others. "Look, doesn't he look like a dog?"
The others immediately chimed in. "Yes, Second Young Master says he looks like a dog. He's surely a dog, and he can't become a pig even if he wants to."
Ye Xiao trembled as he picked up the Blood Recovery Pill, and under the ridicule of the others, he returned to his own small courtyard dejectedly.
His father was already haggard in appearance, and his internal injuries had already relapsed, causing him to be unconscious for most of the day.
After he helped his father consume the Blood Recovery Pill, Ye Xiao returned to his own room and removed his clothes that were covered in dirt from being kicked earlier, and a wave of piercing pain came from his hand.
His entire right hand was already dripping with blood from being stepped on by Ye Ting earlier.
Meanwhile, a 'ding' sounded out, and when Ye Xiao lowered his head to look, the blood colored pearl he got from Manager Sun had fallen onto the ground.
Ye Xiao instinctively picked it up and placed it on the table. At this moment, he was still dejected, and he didn't notice that at the instant the blood colored pearl came into contact with his blood, it abruptly bloomed with a wisp of a blood colored glow, and it seemed to be evil and dazzling.
At this moment, Ye Xiao was unable to notice all this, as only a single word echoed out in his mind. Why!?
In the entire Ye Clan, his strength wasn't the weakest, but no matter if it was a branch family disciple or a direct descendant disciple like Ye Ting, all of them took pleasure in bullying and humiliating him.
I've obviously never offended them, and I've obviously already exercised forbearance, not retaliating when hit, not retaliating when scolded, so why do they still want to bully and humiliate me?
Why!? Why!?
"You want to know why?"
A voice suddenly arose within Ye Xiao's mind, and it instantly caused him to be greatly shocked.
"Who!? Who's speaking? "
That voice didn't answer Ye Xiao, and it only said indifferently, "Why did they bully and humiliate you? Because your strength isn't strong enough, and because your background isn't as high as theirs!
There's no love without reason in this world, yet there's hatred without reason.
Human nature is evil by nature, and there's never a reason. If they want to bully you, then bully you. How could there be so many reasons?
It's only because your background isn't good enough, and your strength isn't strong enough! "
Ye Xiao instinctively forgot the origins of that voice, and he couldn't help but say. "There are only so many direct descendants in the entire Ye Clan, yet there are a few tens of people in the branch family. Why do they only bully me and not bully others?"
The voice sneered. "Because others are willing to be their dogs. Have you forgotten those people by Ye Ting's side today? Their background is similar to yours, and their strengths are even inferior to you. But they're willing to be Ye Ting's dogs and help their Master bully others, so they naturally don't have to be bullied. What about you? Are you willing to be someone's dog? You're unwilling, so they can only go and bully you even more intensely. Because you're even inferior to a dog! "
The few words spoken by that voice seemed to have revealed all the ugliness in the world before Ye Ting, and it was bloody and extremely ugly.
At the same time that he felt uncomfortable at this moment, he was looking towards the surroundings. Where exactly did this voice come from?
"Stop looking, I'm right in front of you."
Only now did Ye Xiao truly notice the Bloodsoul Pearl that emitted a blood red dim light, and he said hesitantly, "It's you? What thing are you? "
"Thing? In so many years, there hasn't been anyone that dared call me a thing! Now, if you want to take revenge, if you want no one to bully you, and if you want to change your fate, then drip your blood onto the Bloodsoul Pearl. "
The voice was filled with a bewitching force, and it caused Ye Xiao's imagination to instantly roam.
In the legends of the world, there were frequently ancient experts that had their souls trapped within something due to various accidents, and then it was obtained by an ordinary youth. After that, they obtained the guidance of an expert, causing them to transform into a dragon upon encountering a storm and walk towards the peak of their lives, causing them to become legends of the world.
However, according to the legends, these ancient experts were kind and amiable grandpas who would carefully guide you in your cultivation.
But now, this voice was extremely cruel as it told others that one's nature was evil. No matter how one looked at it, this didn't seem like something a grandpa expert would say, and this caused Ye Xiao to be slightly vigilant.
Meanwhile, the voice laughed strangely and said, "What? You're afraid? You've already become like this, and you've lived a life that's even inferior to a dog. What are you afraid of? You don't even dare gamble with your lowly life? Useless trash! "
Ye Xiao seemed to be provoked by this voice. He picked up a long sword and directly cut his palm. Immediately, blood dripped onto the Bloodsoul Pearl.
In an instant, the Bloodsoul Pearl began to absorb Ye Xiao's blood, and the blood-colored luster on it became brighter.
Just as Ye Xiao's face was a little pale, the Bloodsoul Pearl stopped absorbing his blood. But at the same time, Ye Xiao's consciousness was pulled into a world. It was a world of blood!
An endless sea of blood was tumbling, and one of the middle-aged men was trapped on a bronze chair.
The other person was dressed in a black robe, and he sat on a blood-colored dragon chair. The aura around him was extremely powerful.
But there was a layer of blood-colored mist on his face, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
The middle-aged man pointed at the figure on the dragon chair and chuckled. "Don't look at me. The one who pulled you in is that guy. Your opportunity is him."
Ye Xiao looked left and right, and his hair stood on end.
He was now certain that this thing was not a good person. It was a far cry from the seniors and grandpas in the legends who liked to guide the younger generation in their cultivation.
