Chapter 48: Tianyu Town

  Ye Chen was unconscious for three whole days!

  Within three days, Mu Bing took great care of Ye Chen every day, day and night, her eyes had already appeared with dark circles, but she persisted, waiting for Ye Chen to wake up!

  The Tianyu Town's Liu Mansion had not sent anyone over, and the news of Liu Wuyi's death had not been spread out. Of course, if it were to be spread, Tianyu Town would probably have gone into chaos immediately. After all, this was originally a town that was forcibly combined together through external forces. If the people knew that the town head was dead, those villagers who had been oppressed for a long time would likely go crazy and attack the Liu Mansion!

  But all of this has nothing to do with Ye Chen and Mu Bing anymore!

  Mu Bing had made up her mind to leave with Ye Chen, even if it meant being Ye Chen's sister forever, she would follow him forever!

  "Brother Chen, why haven't you woken up yet!"

  Mu Bing's hands were propping up her chin, her eyes gazing dazedly at Ye Chen lying motionless on the bed.

  The dragon claw on Ye Chen's right hand had long since faded away, but the dragon pattern on his arm was still emitting a faint golden light.

  Ye Chen's body underwent a heaven-shaking and earth-shattering change at this time, the golden light emitted by the Dragon Array pattern all entered Ye Chen's body, attached to his bones and muscles!

  The original dragon bone fusion was only merged with the skeleton, but now it is gradually nourishing Ye Chen's muscles, which means that Ye Chen's physical body is slowly evolving towards a dragon body!

  As the dragon-shaped pattern gradually disappeared, Ye Chen also gradually regained consciousness.

  "Brother Chen, are you awake?"

  Mu Bing saw Ye Chen slowly opening his eyes, his face lit up with joy, and he hastily ran to Ye Chen's bedside, embracing him in his own arms.

  "How many days have I been unconscious?"

  Ye Chen said weakly to Mu Bing.

  "Three days, exactly three days!"

  Mu Bing smiled and looked at Ye Chen, answering.

  "Three days!" Ye Chen muttered to himself, feeling as if he had forgotten something important, his brow furrowed slightly.

  Suddenly, Ye Chen's face changed and he hastily said: "No good! How could I have forgotten about the martial arts competition!"

  Ye Chen hastily sat up, looked at Mu Bing for a moment, and said softly: "Bing'er, come with me! If you stay here, I really can't rest assured!" Then, Ye Chen's expression darkened slightly as he continued: "After all, you're my sister!"

  Mu Bing listened to Ye Chen's last sentence, her expression also slightly dimmed, but she quickly recovered and smiled at Ye Chen: "Good!"

  Ye Chen's face lit up with joy when he heard Mu Bing's affirmative response, and he hastily said: "Great! Mu Bing, quickly pack your things, we're leaving immediately!"

  "What's the hurry?" Mu Bing furrowed her brow slightly.

  Ye Chen nodded: "Yes, now we don't know how far away from Lianyun Sect. And five days later, I have something important to do. Today, let's go to Tianyu Town to investigate the location of Lianyun Sect and set off immediately!"

  "But Brother Chen, you're still very weak!" Mu Bing said with a worried face.

  Ye Chen smiled slightly and shook his head, saying in a soft voice: "It's no big deal, it won't hinder our journey!"

  Mu Bing looked at Ye Chen's persistent appearance, obediently nodded: "Okay!" Then gently put down Ye Chen and walked to the side to start packing things.

  Ye Chen looked at Mu Bing's back, revealing a hint of a happy smile, and then closed his eyes, feeling the changes in his body.

  Actually, Ye Chen had already discovered the changes in his body as soon as he opened his eyes. Through the golden light emitted by the Dragon Line pattern, not only were all the injuries on his body recovered, but also his cultivation had unknowingly broken through to the sixth level of Fragmented Body!

  However, the credit for all this cannot be attributed to the Dragon's Path diagram alone. The Dragon's Path diagram only played a restorative role, and what truly allowed Ye Chenxiu to break through was the effect brought about by entering demonic possession!

  In fact, as for the matter of entering demonic possession, it can be said that there is hardly anyone in the world who truly understands it. After all, among those who have entered demonic possession and then awakened, there is only Ye Chen alone!

  The weakness just now was caused by Ye Chen's three days of inaction!

  Ye Chen felt the sixfold cultivation of his physical body, and his heart was stirred: After I fell into demonic possession, it actually brought me such great benefits, and actually allowed me to break through again!

  Ye Chen thought and thought, and suddenly he couldn't help but laugh foolishly. He even had an impulse to enter a demonic state once more, so that he could break through again!

  "Brother Chen, what are you smiling at?"

  Mu Bing looked at Ye Chen lying on the bed with a silly smile and asked in confusion.

  "Ah!" Ye Chen hastily opened his eyes and gave Mu Bing an awkward smile: "Nothing, nothing!"

  Ye Chen looked at Mu Bing's bundle and asked in puzzlement, "Packed up? Is that all you have?"

  Mo Bing smiled slightly and took a deep breath, then turned to look at the house she had lived in for many years: "Yes, there's only a few pieces of clothing left, nothing else!"

  Ye Chen nodded slightly and slowly sat up, first stretching his stiff upper body, then stood up on the ground and began to move around.

  A moment later, Ye Chen felt that his body had no discomfort, and he smiled slightly, feeling that his state was more full than ever before. He turned his head to Mu Bing and said softly, "Bing'er, let's go!"

  "Ah!"

  Mu Bing smiled and nodded slightly.

  Ye Chen walked out of the house, looking at the giant knife still on the ground, and a smile appeared on his face. He picked it up with one hand, looked at the knife with both eyes, and muttered to himself: "Why do I always feel that you are not like this now, but just haven't had time to show off your style?"

  Ye Chen shook his head, puzzled as to why he had such a feeling about the sword, and then used a rope that was already prepared in advance to tie it behind his back.

  However, Ye Chen did not notice that at the moment he finished saying those words, a red glow flashed across the giant knife, as if responding to Ye Chen.

  Mu Bing stood outside the courtyard, his own residence, and let out a deep breath.

  Ye Chen smiled and walked up, softly asking: "What's wrong with Bing'er?"

  Mu Bing smiled faintly at Ye Chen: "Nothing! I just don't know if I'll have another chance to come back!"

  Ye Chen comfortingly patted Mu Bing's shoulder and smiled: "There will be a chance!"

  Mu Bing looked at Ye Chen with a faint smile and immediately wrapped his arm around Ye Chen's, walking towards the distance.

  On the road, Ye Chen looked at Mu Bing's expression and slowly opened his mouth: "Bing'er, was I terrifying when I went mad? You saw my right hand, didn't you?"

  Upon hearing this, Mu Bing was slightly taken aback. She hadn't expected Ye Chen to ask her that, and she nodded honestly in response.

  Actually, Mu Bing had always wanted to ask why Ye Chen's right hand turned into a claw, but after thinking for half a day, she still didn't speak up. She knew that Ye Chen hadn't told her voluntarily, so there must be his own reasons, and she just needed to keep it secret for him.

  Ye Chen smiled slightly and turned his head to look at Mu Bing, saying in a low voice: "Bing'er, my right hand's matter absolutely cannot be known by a third person, this is related to my life and death!"

  Mu Bing nodded firmly at Ye Chen: "I understand!"

  "Ah-ha!" Then, Mu Bing took out a tattered map from her bosom and handed it to Ye Chen, saying softly: "Chen Ge, I picked this up the first time I saved you. It should be yours. I had almost forgotten about it!"

  Ye Chen took the map from Mu Bing's hand, smiled slightly, wasn't this the incomplete map he got from Wangjiacun? Then, Ye Chen looked at Mu Bing and said softly: "Yes, it's mine!"

  Ye Chen then followed Mu Bing in the direction of Tianyu Town...

  It has to be said that Tianyu Town is not too far from where Mubing lives. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Ye Chen saw a prosperous town in the distance.

  Mu Bing nodded at Ye Chen and pointed to Tianyu Town, saying in a low voice: "Brother Chen, that's Tianyu Town!"

  Ye Chen nodded slightly and followed Mu Bing as they walked towards the interior of Tianyu Town.

  Tianyu Town was indeed a relay station for the Taoyun Mountains. As soon as Ye Chen entered Tianyu Town, he saw that almost everyone in sight was a cultivator. Moreover, there were places selling weapons on both sides of the road everywhere.

  Mu Bing looked at Ye Chen looking around curiously, smiled slightly and gently pulled Ye Chen, saying in a low voice: "Brother Chen, let's go to the inn ahead! We can also ask about Lianyun Sect there!"

  Ye Chen nodded with a smile on his face.

  "Waiter, bring some good wine and dishes!"

  Ye Chen and Mu Bing entered the inn, found a relatively clean place to take care of Mu Bing, sat down, and shouted at the busy shopkeeper.

  "Here I come!"

  Have to say, the service of the inn is still good. Ye Chen had just shouted for a short while when a young shopkeeper came over with some things in his hands and a flattering face.

  "Please take your time, sir!"

  Ye Chen smiled slightly and immediately took out a few pieces of gold from his waistband and threw them to the shop boy, asking in a low voice: "I'd like to ask you something!"

  Fortunately, Ye Chen had put his money in his belt, otherwise he would have been penniless by now. The clothes he was wearing were also bought for him by Mu Bing after the consecutive big battles over the past few days.

  "Old man, you said, as long as I know, absolutely no silence!"

  The shopkeeper's face lit up with a smile as soon as he saw the gold handed over by Ye Chen, and he said with a flattering expression, even changing his address from "guest" to "master".

  Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Do you know Lianyun Sect?"

  The young shopkeeper burst out laughing: "Haha, old man, you've really asked the right person! The Lianyun Sect is located southwest of our Tianyu Town, with a distance of over 300 miles. If it's an ordinary person traveling, it would take about six or seven days to arrive. However, looking at your appearance, you must be a martial artist, and that speed will be much faster!"

  "Southwest direction? Over three hundred miles?" Ye Chen muttered to himself, then sighed and said, "I didn't realize I'd gone around in such a big circle!"

  "Nothing's wrong, uncle, I'll just head down first!"

  Ye Chen smiled and nodded slightly, saying softly: "Go down!"

  Ye Chen looked at the departing shopkeeper, then smiled slightly at Mu Bing: "Bing'er, after we finish eating, let's go buy a horse carriage. That way, we can hurry along on our journey!"

  Actually, if Ye Chen himself were to exert his full strength with 'Swift Thunder Flash', he would probably be able to return to Lianyun Sect in just one day. However, since he had brought Mu Bing along, who didn't have any cultivation base, Ye Chen could only purchase a horse carriage to take care of her.

  "Ah!"

  Murong Bing nodded lightly and began to eat the food on the table. It was worth noting that Murong Bing had taken care of Ye Chen for three days, and except for drinking a little water, he hadn't eaten anything at all, and was already starving.

  Ye Chen also felt the hunger in his stomach and quickly started eating big mouthfuls.

  However, Ye Chen wanted to eat a meal in peace, but was interrupted by a voice that made people feel disgusted at the sound of it!

  As the saying goes, since ancient times beautiful women have been a source of trouble, and this is especially true for Mu Bing, whose beauty rivals that of the celestial nymphs!

  "I don't know if this girl can keep us brothers company and have a drink with us?"
