The Soul-Contact Vine King could boost a person's mental strength, which was also a type of soul power. It was an extremely nourishing medicine for both ordinary people and martial artists.
If one was lucky, they could even comprehend the ability to create illusions from the Soul-Contact Vine King. This was a skill that martial artists yearned for even in their dreams.
Yang Wu was not seeking additional skills, but for Shou Hou. As long as he could save Shou Hou, he was willing to pay any price.
It was impossible for ordinary people to easily obtain the Soul-Contact Vine King because it could create illusions on one's mental strength. Furthermore, there was the binding attack of the vine grass. Even if a King came, he might not be able to deal with it. Martial artists at Yang Wu's level would die no matter how many of them came.
Fortunately, Yang Wu had already condensed the God's Court Flower Bud and had encountered a spirit-level Soul-Contact Vine's attack, so he was able to guard against the Soul-Contact Vine King's attack and successfully obtain it.
After Yang Wu took down the Soul-Contact Vine King, a large number of poisonous insects rushed out to attack him. There were snakes, scorpions, ants … There was an astonishing number of them. The poison they spat out was extremely strong, and their numbers were terrifying. Anyone who saw them would feel their scalp tingle.
Yang Wu did not want to be entangled with them. After taking the Soul-Contact Vine King, he rushed back to Lin Qiqi's position.
Just as he returned to Lin Qiqi's location, he discovered that some poisonous insects were about to latch onto Lin Qiqi. He hurriedly chased these poisonous insects away, then carried her in his arms. After determining the direction they came from, he used all his strength to chase them out of here.
Yang Wu's strength had not recovered, but after his mental strength recovered, he was able to circulate The Highest Nine Profound Illusions and Dragon Turtle Water Suppressing Stance to absorb the Mystic Water here, quickly replenishing the energy in his dantian.
The energy here contained poison. Once someone absorbed it, they would show signs of being poisoned. However, Yang Wu did not have such a reaction. This was because his Peach Core Dantian was different. Even if it absorbed mottled energy, or even poisonous energy, it could purify and extract the purest energy.
While Yang Wu was running, the energy that poured into his legs was the most majestic. His strength was rapidly recovering, and his recovery speed was astonishing.
Lin Qiqi, who was in Yang Wu's arms, didn't wake up. Instead, she was like a sleeping child, leaning into Yang Wu's arms. That heavy position was pressing down on Yang Wu. It was definitely a great test for Yang Wu's mind and body.
The swamp was filled with danger, but Yang Wu still relied on his powerful senses to avoid some dangerous attacks. After running for a while, he finally saw the shore of the swamp again. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. "I'm finally out. This damned place is really scary."
Ever since he came in, he had not had a moment of peace. If he did not have some trump cards, he would have died here.
However, when he returned to the shore, he did not see Little Hei. Instead, he sensed people rushing in his direction.
Yang Wu instinctively wanted to avoid them, but after thinking about it, he realized that this was not the territory of any family. Moreover, with his strength, if there were no King level powerhouses, he would not be afraid at all. Why should he avoid them?
Thinking of this, Yang Wu felt at ease. He chose a clean place where there was no poison, and put Lin Qiqi down.
When he put Lin Qiqi down, the group of people finally appeared not too far away from him. Among them, one of them shouted, "Bastard, let go of Junior Lin!"
There were a total of seven people in the group, five males and two females. Six of them looked like teenagers, and only one of them looked like an old man. They were all wearing the specially made noble clothes of the Royal School. Even if they were a little damaged, it was easy to tell them apart.
The seven of them quickly rushed towards Yang Wu, all of them brandishing their weapons. One of the hot-tempered teenagers even charged towards Yang Wu angrily.
Yang Wu dodged the other party's attack and shouted back, "Don't mess around, I didn't do anything to her."
"You still dare to refute? You obviously wanted to do something to Junior Lin. I'll kill you, you pervert!" The hot-tempered teenager shouted, once again charging towards Yang Wu with his weapon held horizontally.
This teenager already had the strength of a high-level warrior. This talent was not weak, but this kind of strength was not enough to threaten Yang Wu.
Yang Wu dodged the teenager's attack once again and said in a low voice, "Don't provoke me again, or I'll beat you until you have to look for your teeth on the ground!"
The hot-tempered teenager's two consecutive attacks had failed, and his face was a little embarrassed. He drew out all of his strength and slashed out his ultimate move.
A Single Spark Makes a Prairie Fire!
The hot-tempered teenager's body released a fiery light, from a single spark to an astonishing power of flames, wanting to kill Yang Wu in one move.
"Junior Brother Liao's Single Spark Makes a Prairie Fire has already reached the level of proficiency. It's pretty good!" Among the few teenagers, a teenager who was clearly the leader said with his hands behind his back.
This teenager had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He wore a golden flood dragon crown on his head, a purple belt around his waist, purple gold boots on his feet, and a golden flood dragon longsword on his back. There was no doubt about his noble temperament.
The ordinary-looking middle-aged man stuck close to the teenager's side. It was obvious that he was protecting the teenager's safety.
"If Junior Brother Liao hears the Fifth Prince's praise, he'll definitely be wild with joy." Beside the teenager, a gorgeously dressed girl said in a sweet voice.
In the next moment, they saw the teenager they thought highly of have his wrist grabbed by Yang Wu. Yang Wu pulled him forward and tripped him. A simple response caused the hot-tempered teenager to fall on dog shit.
"Ouch!"
The hot-tempered teenager cried out in pain. One or two of his front teeth were broken and fresh blood seeped out of his mouth. He looked extremely pathetic.
Yang Wu said faintly, "I'll say it again. I didn't do anything to her. If you don't believe me, you can ask her properly when she wakes up. If you continue to pester me, don't blame me for being impolite."
"What big words. Do you know who we are?" Another teenager from the Royal School scolded.
"I don't care who you are, as long as you don't provoke me." Yang Wu replied without any trace of politeness.
The other party was a bunch of arrogant fellows. He didn't have the mood to talk nonsense with them. If they continued to talk nonsense, he would beat them up until even their mothers couldn't recognize them.
"I'm going to kill you!" The hot-tempered teenager who had crawled up once again charged towards Yang Wu.
Before he could attack Yang Wu, the teenager with the golden flood dragon crown stopped him and said, "Junior Brother Liao, come back. You're not his match."
The hot-tempered teenager was already at the peak of his anger. How could he listen to the words of the teenager with the golden flood dragon crown? He continued to charge towards Yang Wu with all his might.
"You're asking for trouble!" Yang Wu said disdainfully. After dodging the hot-tempered teenager, he viciously punched the hot-tempered teenager's lower abdomen.
Puchi!
After the hot-tempered teenager took Yang Wu's punch, he spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards like a prawn.
"Junior Brother Liao!" A teenager from the Royal School cried out in surprise and rushed out to catch the hot-tempered teenager. He didn't want him to fall even more miserably. However, when the teenager caught the hot-tempered teenager, he felt an unstoppable force and was thrown to the ground together with the hot-tempered teenager.
At this moment, the teenagers from the Royal School were all shocked. The teenager in front of them was about the same age as them, but his strength was much stronger than theirs. This was hard for them to accept.
When these teenagers regained their senses, they had already drawn their weapons and were about to surround Yang Wu. The teenager who was addressed as the Fifth Prince looked at Yang Wu and asked, "Are you a citizen of the Xia Kingdom?"
"So what if I am, and so what if I'm not?" Yang Wu had just heard someone address this teenager as the Fifth Prince, so he should be the Fifth Prince of the Xia Kingdom, Tang Chencheng.
Yang Wu was once the son of an Earl and a hereditary Viscount. However, there was still a huge gap between him and a real member of the Royal Family. Hence, he had never seen a Prince of the Royal Family.
However, he already had a basic understanding of the Princes of the Royal Family.
The Fifth Prince in front of him was actually only the son of a concubine and did not have the qualifications to become the Crown Prince. However, it was said that the Fifth Prince had an extraordinary talent in cultivation and had also gained the favor of the current Emperor. It would not be difficult for him to be conferred the title of King in the future.
Even if Yang Wu's status had not been demoted, he still did not have the qualifications to speak to the Fifth Prince on an equal footing. Furthermore, he was still a prison slave soldier. However, he did not bow down to the Fifth Prince. This was not because he had become arrogant, but because he had a strong resentment towards the Royal Family. The Royal Family did not distinguish between right and wrong when they conferred the title of Yang Family. This made him very unhappy with the Royal Family.
"If you are a citizen of the Xia Kingdom, you should run down and greet the Fifth Prince!" The gorgeous young girl beside Tang Chencheng said loudly.
This young girl was called Liu Yemei. She had reached the level of a high-level warrior and was extremely fond of the Fifth Prince. She even hoped to become the Fifth Prince's concubine.
The other teenagers were called Gao Shengcai, Lu Mingbin, Liao Zhitan and He Xiaoshuang. As for the middle-aged man, he was a eunuch and was known as "Li Gonggong".
"So it is Your Highness, the Fifth Prince. I have been disrespectful!" Yang Wu cupped his hands and said. He then said, "I saved her from this swamp. Since you know her, I will hand her over to you."
After he finished speaking, Yang Wu turned to leave. He did not want to be entangled with these people. He also did not have the extravagant hope that the Fifth Prince would be able to help the Yang Family regain their former glory. Who knows, the Fifth Prince might even hit him when he was down. Therefore, it was better to keep a respectful distance and rely on himself.
The Fifth Prince, Tang Chencheng, showed some dissatisfaction and said, "Since Junior Sister Lin was saved by you, we will talk about it when she wakes up." He paused for a moment and said, "Now, let's settle the score of you injuring my Junior Brother Liao."
"He wanted to kill me. So what if I taught him a lesson?" Yang Wu frowned and said.
"Hehe, then as the Fifth Prince, what if I want to teach a lowly commoner like you a lesson?" The Fifth Prince showed his arrogance and laughed.
"Is this how the Imperial Family bullies others?" Yang Wu's face darkened as he said.
"How dare you talk back to the Fifth Prince. You are courting death!" Gao Shengcai shouted from the side.
"Put away your senseless arrogance. This is the Wolf Smoke Mountain Range, not the outside world!" Yang Wu threw out a harsh sentence and turned to leave.
"Let this prince measure where you got the confidence to dare to look down on the dignity of my imperial family!" The Fifth Prince said coldly, then rushed towards Yang Wu to kill him.
At this moment, Lin Qiqi woke up and cried out, "Fifth Prince, don't go against him."
