“Another group of people?” Xiao ran frowned.

“Yes.” The deer King nodded heavily.

“At that time, this King was only concerned with escaping and casually glanced at them. Otherwise, with this King’s abilities, a casual palm strike would have been enough to finish them off.”

“There are more?” Xiao ran asked again.

“No more! This King has already told you everything I know. Then, then, can you show mercy and let this King go?”

“We can ‘t!” Xiao ran shook his head.

He waved his hand.

A palm strike landed and finished the deer King off in front of its frightened eyes.

The Golden Book of Fate opened to a new page and revealed six items. Once again, it exploded.

4,000,000 proficiency points, 400 years of martial arts cultivation, 400 years of soul cultivation, 3 kun Peng body tempering pills, 5000-year-old Vermilion fruit, and half-demon Heart.

He split the four million proficiency points into two portions, with each portion being two million.

He added them to the Heaven’s End saber technique and the myriad forms universe.

His attributes were refreshed.

Heaven’s End saber technique, returning to true.

Myriad forms universe: return to the original.

He was 450 years away from breaking through to the martial King realm.

His Spirit Master cultivation was still 900 years away from breaking through to the king realm.

He took out the three kun Peng body tempering pills and swallowed them. The medicinal effects tempered and strengthened his body. When the medicinal effects were absorbed, his body would become stronger again.

A rough estimate.

His strength, defense, and speed had at least doubled.

He took out the 5000-year-old red fruit. It was fiery red and emitted a strong medicinal fragrance.

As soon as it appeared, the rich fragrance completely condensed and spread to the surroundings.

“Good stuff.” Xiao ran’s eyes lit up.

He opened his mouth and swallowed the five-thousand-year-old Vermilion fruit.

The terrifying power coursed through his body as the nine Heavens spiritual control technique was circulated to its limit. In the first instant, he refined all of this overbearing power.

He didn’t know how long had passed.

When Xiao ran absorbed the medicinal power, his martial cultivation increased by another five hundred years.

BOOM!

His body trembled, and a huge roar rang out. A terrifying vortex formed and rushed toward his limbs and bones.

With the help of the 5000-year-old fruit, he had broken through to the martial King realm.

The pure spiritual energy had undergone a qualitative change. The quantity had increased by five times, and its power had become more tyrannical.

Even the surrounding space was affected. As Xiao ran’s aura changed, it gradually changed.

He didn’t know how long had passed.

The powerful aura disappeared, and all the strange phenomena returned to his body.

Xiao ran clenched his fist and felt the immense power in his body. He nodded in satisfaction.

“Is this the martial King realm?”

He muttered to himself.

Xiao ran revealed his cultivation at first-grade Grandmaster realm, which did not look too high nor too low.

He was 2950 years away from Lv 2 martial King realm.

However, he had not condensed a Dao fruit.

He took out the half-demon Heart.

Half-beast’s heart: gather half of the essence of a martial King realm demon and increase the success rate of Dao fruit by 50%(only for spirit beasts and demons).

“Chicken ribs,” Xiao ran smiled bitterly.

He waved his right hand.

He kept the deer King’s corpse into his seven-treasure Jade belt.

He looked in the direction of the mountain god temple, his eyes shining.

“Xiao Yi is actually a martial King realm expert. This means that Gu Xuanyi has also condensed a Dao fruit and sealed it.” Xiao ran said.

Then, another problem appeared.

Who was it that had the guts to attack the Empress?

“Things are getting more and more interesting.”

At this moment.

“Benefactor, where are you?” a nervous and scared voice asked.

Liu Ying, holding an umbrella, came up from behind in a panic.

Xiao ran turned around. His eyes remained the same, but they seemed to be able to see through her. He guessed in his heart that the Empress’s assassination was also their doing.

“Benefactor!” Liu Ying shouted excitedly.

He threw the umbrella aside, opened his arms, and rushed toward Xiao ran.

Just as she was about to hug Xiao ran, Xiao ran moved slightly to the side and dodged her.

He was caught off guard.

Liu Ying fell to the ground and ate a mouthful of mud.

“Don’t do anything to me,”Xiao ran said.

“Yes.” Liu Ying felt wronged, and tears flowed out.

“Let’s continue on our way. We must reach River County before noon.” Xiao ran said.

He took the umbrella and left.

Liu Ying crawled up from the ground. Her eyes were shining, and her hands were clenched tightly. Her eyes were cold and filled with killing intent. However, she concealed it very well. She appeared and disappeared again.

“I’ll let you be proud for a while longer. When we reach the place, it’ll be the time of your death!”

She picked up the umbrella and followed after him, gritting her teeth.

At noon.

Xiao ran brought her into the city, and they had already arrived at Shanghe County.

He looked at the storm that was getting smaller.

“Let’s find an inn to rest first. ” Xiao ran said.

He chose an Inn and asked for two superior rooms. He asked the waiter to help prepare the bath water and a table of wine and food.

After taking a shower.

He changed into a clean set of clothes and sat in his room to eat.

“Thump thump!”

There was a knock on the door, and Liu Ying’s voice came from outside.”Can I come in, benefactor?”

“The door isn’t closed.” Xiao ran said.

Liu Ying pushed the door open and walked in. She closed the door and sat opposite Xiao ran.

Seeing that there was only one set of bowl and chopsticks on the table, Xiao ran was already using them. He didn’t say anything and just looked at him quietly.

“What do you want me to help you get?” Xiao ran said.

“Account book!” Liu Ying said.

“The item is with a friend of my father. His name is Li Tao and he’s a gentleman. He lives in the north of the city and is all alone. He doesn’t have any relatives and lives alone.”

“Yes.” Xiao ran responded.

“I’ll go get some food. ” Liu Ying said.
