Ah Du quietly exited the tent, taking a deep breath of fresh air, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't clear up the confusion in his mind. He was increasingly unable to understand what kind of person Xuan Yue was - sometimes cold and distant, sometimes hot-headed, one moment throwing a tantrum at him, and the next seeming to care about him deeply.

  "Come on, Ah Dumb brother, hurry up and go to sleep. We still have a long way to go tomorrow morning." The speaker was Yue Hen, who was smiling at Ah Dumb.

  The tent was very small, like the stature of Yuexing and Adai. Inside, it was indeed a bit cramped. Yuexing sat cross-legged on one side and said: "Brother Adai, how old are you this year?"

  Ah-Dai lifted up the hood on his head and said: "I'm seventeen years old, Brother Yu-Heng, how about you?"

  Yuè Hén Dào said: "I'm two years older than you, I'm nineteen this year, my sister is eighteen, we can all say that we're of the same age. What do you think about our trip to the Mountains of Death?"

  He stared blankly for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I just wanted to get a magic crystal to take back and give to my teacher."

  Yuè Hén Dào said: "I think your relationship with Miss Xuán Yuè seems a bit strange. How did you two meet?"

  "Ah-Dai sighed and said, 'Moon Scar big brother, don't ask anymore, it's hard to put into words! You meditate, I'll start contemplating too.'" After finishing speaking, he sat cross-legged, closed his eyes.

  Yuè Hén looked at him and saw he didn't want to say anything, so with a helpless shake of his head, he began cultivating his own Dou Qi.

  Ah-Dai meditated for a while, seeing that Yue-Heng had already entered a state of concentration. He then turned to cultivate his vital energy, since Xuan-Yue didn't want Yue-Heng and the others to know about her martial skills, he could only go along with it.

  One night without incident, the next morning everyone continued on their journey, heading in the direction of the Pu Yan tribe's territory. After a morning of trekking, they finally arrived at another city of the Hong Piao tribe around noon. This city was much larger, with most residents being from the Hong Piao tribe. At Xuan Yue's repeated requests, they bought a large horse-drawn carriage and two fine horses to pull it. When paying, Xuan Yue only paid 50 gold coins, while the carriage alone cost over 100 gold coins. Yue Hen seemed to be wealthy and didn't argue, so he paid the rest of the money. The most pitiful one was Ah Dai, as Xuan Yue confiscated all his belongings on the grounds that he wasn't using them, naturally putting them into her own purse. After lunch, Wan Li drove the carriage, and they continued on their way.

  With the horse-drawn carriage, their speed of advance increased greatly, and two days later, they finally entered the territory of the Pu Rock tribe.

  The carriage ride was a bit bumpy, but it was much more comfortable than walking. However, due to the bumpiness, Yue Hen and others didn't dare to meditate in their seats. With nothing else to do, they started chatting. After several days of traveling together, they became quite familiar with each other. Ah Dai and Xuan Yue learned that Yue Hen and his sister Yue Ji were originally children of a noble family from the Hong Lian tribe. Their family was very strict, but like Xuan Yue, they had also sneaked out to become mercenaries. They only returned home once or twice a year, and despite their young age, they already had three years of mercenary experience. The Yue Hen Mercenary Team was established just last year. Due to the popularity of mercenaries in the Hong Lian tribe, their parents saw that they had made a name for themselves and no longer restricted their actions. Yue Hen's Moon Shadow Swordsmanship was learned from his family's traditions, while Yue Ji's archery skills were taught by her mother. Both of them possessed considerable strength.

  What was unexpected for the others was that Xuan Yue didn't brag about his identity to Yuexing and the others, only saying that he had learned a few years of light magic from an unknown magician. These past few days, Xuan Yue has been very low-key, except for asking Yuexing about some novel things on the continent, he hasn't mentioned anything about his origins.

  "Xuan Yue, it turns out that riding a horse-drawn carriage is so comfortable. You've actually done something good for once!" Yuè Jī said with some sarcasm. After spending several days together, the relationship between Yuè Jī and Xuan Yue remained unchanged, always at odds with each other, as if they had been enemies from the start.

  Xuan Yue hummed and said: "You're just realizing it now? Ah-Dai, why are you standing so far away from me? I'm sleepy, lend me your shoulder to lean on."

  Ah-Dai was startled and hastily dodged to one side, saying: "Miss, men and women should not be so intimate, this is not good."

  Miao Fei smiled and said: "Miss Xuan Yue, he doesn't want you to lean on him, but I'll let you lean on me. How about that?"

  Xuan Yue glared at him and said, "You're so skinny, I don't want to lean on you. Ah-Dai, hurry up and come over here!" As she spoke, she shifted closer to Ah-Dai's side.

  The carriage was so small, Ah-Dai had no choice but to let her lean in, under the envious gaze of Miao Fei and Yue Hen. Xuan Yue leaned against Ah-Dai's shoulder and closed her eyes. For some reason, as soon as she leaned on Ah-Dai's sturdy shoulder, her drowsiness naturally increased, and she fell asleep in a short while.

  Gengetsu is asleep, but it's a hardship for Aho, he sits upright and doesn't dare to move, not only has to endure Tsukihime's strange gaze, but also has to maintain his own physical balance.

  Xuan Yue gradually fell into a deep sleep, her hands already wrapped around Ah Dai's arm, with a satisfied expression. Looking at Xuan Yue's peaceful sleeping face, feeling the softness and warmth brought by her slender body, Ah Dai's eyes showed a faint tenderness.

  As it was noon, the sultry weather made everyone feel drowsy and their minds were in a state of confusion.

  Suddenly, the advancing carriage came to an abrupt halt. A loud "whoa" seemed to be Wanli forcibly reining in the horses. The intense jolting motion brought everyone back to their senses. Xuan Yue's body slid into Ah Dai's arms due to the shock. Xuan Yue woke up from her daze and asked blankly, "What happened?"

  Ah-Dai feared that Xuan Yue would misunderstand and think he was taking advantage of her, so he quickly helped her sit up straight and said: "I don't know what happened either, it seems like the carriage suddenly stopped."

  Miao Fei had already jumped out, and Yue Hen and Yue Ji also floated out. Only Ah Dai and Xuan Yue were left in the carriage. Ah Dai said: "Miss, I'll go down and take a look too."

  Xuan Yue yawned and said, "I'm so sleepy, I still want to sleep. Your shoulder is so comfortable, don't go, they can handle it." After finishing speaking, she hugged Ah Dai's arm and closed her eyes again.

  Ah-Dai had no choice but to concentrate his ears and listen to the commotion outside. It seemed like there were many people outside, and a strange voice shouted: "What kind of people are you? Why have you come to our Pu-Rock tribe's territory?"

  The warm and gentle moon scar said: "Everyone, soldier brothers, please let us through. We are members of the Moon Scar Mercenary Group, heading to the Tianyuan Clan's place, just passing through your noble territory on our way."

  That unfamiliar voice hummed and said, "I don't care if you are mercenaries or not. If you want to go to the Tianyuan tribe, change your route immediately and take a detour. You are not allowed to pass through our Purui tribe's territory."

  A'Dai was shocked in his heart. This Pu Yan tribe is also too unreasonable, can't even pass through their territory?

  Yuè Hén didn't get angry due to the other's indifference, and still spoke warmly: "Soldier big brother, please make an exception for us. If we take a detour now, it will add at least ten days to our journey. We are all people of the Suǒ Yù Federation, so let's just make things convenient for each other. We guarantee that we won't stay in the noble territory and will pass through as quickly as possible. What do you think?"

  "Hmph, I've seen people like you before. Don't try to get close to me, who do you think you are? Leave immediately, or we'll have to use force."

  "The Moon Princess's angry voice rang out, 'You're being too unreasonable, why won't you let us pass? We'll pass anyway, see what you can do about it.'"

  The sound of the Golden Wind rose, and it seemed that everyone on the other side had drawn their weapons. Ah-Dai hurriedly shook awake Xuan-Yue and said: "Miss, it seems like they're going to fight outside, you rest here, I'll go take a look."

  Xuan Yue grumbled discontentedly and lay down on the long couch in the carriage, continuing her beautiful dream.

  Ah-Dai floated down from the carriage and hid to one side, looking out. This was a shaded avenue, with a very flat road surface, surrounded by dozens of meters tall trees, with dense branches and leaves, and sunlight could only sprinkle on the ground through the gaps. In front of the carriage, Yue-Heng siblings, Miao-Fei, and Wan-Li stood in a row, facing them was a group of about twenty light cavalrymen. They had just drawn out their waist swords, glaring at Yue-Heng and the others with a fierce expression.

  Yuehen said loudly, "Everyone, we are proper mercenaries. Don't tell me that the Puban tribe doesn't have any mercenaries? Just because we're passing through your territory, you treat us like this? The Hongyuan tribe isn't easy to bully either."

  The leading knight snorted, saying: "Red Whirlwind Tribe? What else do you have besides a few lousy mercenaries? Today, let me see your skills. If any of you can defeat my long sword, I'll let you pass."

  His words thoroughly ignited Yuehen's anger, and Yuehen said in a cold voice: "Good, then I'll see what's so great about the Puyan tribe. Little sister, you retreat." As he spoke, he drew out the long sword by his side and gazed at the knight on horseback.

  The Pu Yan tribe knight dismounted, Ah Dai was shocked to find that this knight was actually half a head taller than himself. As soon as he got off the horse, his whole body suddenly emitted a strong aura, with a long knife over four feet long slung over his shoulder, step by step approaching Yue Hen. Every step he took, his aura became even stronger, firmly locked onto Yue Hen's body.

  The moon's mark on his chest, a solemn expression flowed across his face. He hadn't expected to encounter such an expert here.

  "The Puyan tribe's rock was instructed. Look at the knife." Along with a loud shout, the yellow aura on the rock suddenly burst out, grasping the knife in both hands, and charged towards Yuexi with a fierce momentum.

  A'Duo was shocked in his heart, because the move used by this rock was very similar to the slash of his own Tian Can Swordsmanship.

  Yuè Hén did not yield to the opponent's momentum, his silver sword slanted and pointed at the opponent's knife edge. With a light "ding" sound, Yuè Hén's silver sword accurately landed on the opponent's knife edge five inches away, the silver light flashed by, and forcibly deflected the opponent's long knife aside. However, due to the excessive force of the rocky knife, he was still shaken back two steps.

  Yan Shi didn't let up, striking three times in a row with lightning speed towards Yue Hen. The air was filled with the sound of clashing energy, and even Ah Dai by the horse carriage could clearly feel the massive gusts of wind. Yue Hen's strength was obviously no match for his opponent, his body fluttering about as he opened up his Moon Shadow Sword Technique, dancing around his opponent. For a time, the winds howled, two figures in yellow and silver constantly intersecting and colliding. Yue Hen had an advantage over his opponent in terms of agility, but seemed to be at a disadvantage in terms of energy, struggling to hold on under Yan Shi's oppressive aura. Every time their sword and knife clashed, it would cause his entire body to tremble.

  A loud clang, Moon Scar stumbled three steps back, the silver armor on his shoulder had already been swept away by the opponent's blade, clearly at a disadvantage.

  "The rocky knife tip slanted, saying disdainfully: 'I told you before that you're not good enough, but you didn't believe me. Leave the territory of our Pu Rock Clan immediately, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite.'"

  Yuè Hén deeply knew that he was the strongest in the mercenary group. If even he couldn't defeat the opponent, then there was no way out.

  Miao Fei and Wan Li drew their own weapons, guarding both sides of Yuè Hén. Yuè Ji's silver arrow was already on the bowstring, while the knights on horseback had also jumped down. Looking at their nimble movements, it was clear that they were not weak in strength. In terms of momentum, Yuè Hén and the others suddenly fell behind.

  "Ugh, disturbing people's sleep, you idiot, what are you doing standing here? Let's go take a look, who is so arrogant." It turned out that Xuan Yue had crawled out of the carriage. With all the commotion outside, how could she have slept in the carriage, she had been watching through the gaps for half a day, and only came out after seeing Yue Hen fall into disadvantage.

  Ah-Dai helped Xuan Yue down from the horse carriage, Xuan Yue rubbed her sleepy eyes and shouted: "Yue-Hen, what's going on? Who is so blind to block our way?"

  At the sound of Xuanyue's voice, a group of knights immediately cast their eyes over, and a hint of surprise flashed in Yanshi's eyes: "A magician?"

  Ah-Dai and Xuan-Yue walked to the side of Yue-Hen, Xuan-Yue looked up at the rock and said in a delicate voice: "Why are you so tall? Do you want me to raise my head to look at you?"

  Yan Shi lowered his head, just in time to see Xuan Yue's absolutely beautiful face. Even with his firm willpower, he couldn't help but stare blankly for a moment, muttering: "What does your height have to do with me?"

  Xuan Yue snorted and said, "Why are you blocking our way? I heard what was just said. If you can beat me, then let us pass, okay, Ah Dai, teach him a lesson."

  A Dull Thud, said: "Me?" Looking at the performance of the rock just now, he didn't have any grasp of victory.

  "Of course it's you, can't let me go up there myself. Hurry up and pull, send them off quickly so we can hit the road."

  A'Dai responded with a grunt and stepped forward, standing in front of the rock.

  He didn't have any confidence in his heart, he had never fought a magician before, only heard that they were very powerful, and didn't know if he could handle it, cautiously drawing his long sword, saying: "Then let's do this."

  Xuan Yue said from behind Ah Dai: "Bring out that skill you used to chop through the wall that day and let him have a look."

  Although Ah-Dai didn't quite understand why Hsuan-Yueh wasn't using him to conceal his martial arts skills, he still drew out the Tien-Kan sword from behind his back. Yueh-Heng saw all this and didn't stop it; he had long been suspicious of Ah-Dai's heavy sword, so he took advantage of the opportunity to take a look.

  Yan Shi saw Ah Diao's Tian Ge sword and revealed a surprised expression, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but he still raised his own long knife.

  Ah-Dai suddenly felt a inexplicable warmth throughout his body, his spirit greatly lifted, as if he had endless power. A thin layer of white light enveloped his body, which was not his own internal energy, since he hadn't even started to cultivate it yet. He couldn't help but turn around and glance at Xuan-Yue, only to see her fiddling with the magic wand in her hand, making a mischievous face at him. This white light was clearly related to her, probably some kind of auxiliary magic.

  Yan Shi's deep voice said: "Please advise." Still holding the knife with both hands, he heavily chopped towards Ah Dai.

  He didn't care about that, his combat experience was not rich, but he was most familiar with this kind of slash. He let out a loud roar, swung the Tianjie sword with both hands, and slashed at the opponent in the same way. The white Dou Qi light suddenly became more intense, and the later one arrived first to meet him. In the midst of the thunderous sound, the long knife of the rock and the Tianjie sword suddenly collided, and the Dou Qi of the two people suddenly stirred up a small whirlpool on the ground.

  A'Dai felt that his internal energy seemed to have become much stronger than before, and this was not just because Sheng Sheng had reached the fifth stage. A large part of it was due to the white light that appeared earlier.

  The rock felt a surge of incredible power from the opponent's sword, and involuntarily took a step back. He, who had always been proud of his strength, had never been shaken by an opponent before, especially not by a magician. With a furious roar, he swung his long knife again, this time using all his might.

  A'Dai was in Shitang Town, facing the waves every day, chopping and slashing countless times, the endless vitality in his body transmitted to his arm, and he chopped again. The sound of "Dong, Dong, Dong" kept ringing out, A'Dai and the rock were almost motionless, constantly hacking at each other, this was a contest of pure strength.

  After a dozen or so collisions, Ah-Dai gradually gained the upper hand. After all, the endless supply of true energy made him not lose momentum. In terms of military strength, Ah-Dai also had an advantage. His Tian-Gang sword was much heavier than his opponent's long knife. Finally, in the eighteenth collision, the rock's long knife was cut off by Ah-Dai. The Tian-Gang sword with a strong aura chopped towards the rock, and Ah-Dai was shocked. He didn't want to kill anyone. The multiple collisions made him feel affectionate towards the rock. He understood that if it weren't for Xuan Yue's magic, he might not have had an advantage in strength. Moreover, just now, the rock and Yuè-Hén had fought a battle, consuming a lot of energy. With a sudden flick of his wrist, Ah-Dai stepped out to the right with his right foot, barely bringing the Tian-Gang sword to one side. A loud crash, it chopped into the ground. Under full force attack, changing moves suddenly brought a huge load to Ah-Dai's body. His chest felt like being hit by a giant hammer, and his throat was sweet. Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

  Yan Shi was shocked, he had never felt that death could be so close to him. Looking at the Tian Ge sword which was half buried in the ground, he clearly knew what would happen if it had struck his body. His hand relaxed and the long knife fell to the ground.

  Xuan Yue rushed to Ah Dai's side and anxiously asked: "How are you?"

  A'Dai coughed twice, holding up the Tianxia Sword, propping himself up and said: "I'm fine."

  "Great heavens, lend me your divine power to heal the wounds before me!" As he chanted the incantation, a white glow appeared on his staff and flashed into Ah-Dai's body.

  A warm feeling suddenly filled Ah-Dai's meridians, his innate true energy originally had a certain sacred aura, Xuan Yue's light system magic entered his body and instantly stimulated his own life force, making his chest feel much more comfortable.

  He let out a long sigh, Ah-Dai nodded at Xuan Yue and said, "Thank you, miss."

  The Pu tribe soldiers who came with the rock jumped off their horses one by one, guarding the rock's side, holding high their horse knives, with a fierce and menacing attitude, as if they were about to take action at any moment.

  The silly man raised his head and looked at the rock, which was still in a daze, as if it didn't dare to believe that it would fail. "Brother, I don't know if your words count as magic, but can you let us pass now?" The silly man spoke very politely, with a faint smile on his face. He had been scared by the previous sword strike and was genuinely happy that he hadn't hurt the rock in the end.

  Yan Shi was awakened by Ah Diao's voice, his face showing an embarrassed expression. He rushed to Ah Diao and said: "Brother, you're really skilled, thank you for sparing my life, Yan Shi admits defeat. May I ask, is the weapon you used the Tian Lian Sword?"

  A'Dai nodded and said: "It's Tian Gan Sword."

  A glimmer of joy flashed in Yan Shi's eyes as he walked towards Ah Dai, Wan Li hastily stepped forward, blocking Ah Dai's path and warily gazing at Yan Shi: "What do you want to do?"

  The rock spread out its hands, and the previous arrogance was gone. It said calmly: "I didn't mean any harm, I just wanted to have a few words with this brother."

  Xuan Yue walked up to Ah Dai's side and said, "What's there to say, Ah Dai has already won you over. Shouldn't we be on our way now? Our time is quite tight."

  Yan Shi looked at Xuan Yue and then at Ah Diao, saying: "Brother, my name is Yan Shi. When I was young, I was fortunate enough to receive guidance from Master Xi Wen, the great disciple of the Tian Gang Sword Saint, for a few days. It turns out that we are fellow disciples after all! I really didn't have any ill intentions. Since you're related to the Tian Gang Sect, you shouldn't be a bad person. You can pass through our territory."

  "Ah, I see! So Brother Rock is also from the Heaven's Wrath Sword Sect! My uncle is too, and my name is Ah-Dai. My Heaven's Wrath Sword was passed down to me by my uncle. Well, Brother Rock, let's be off then!"

  Yan Shi smiled and said, "Alright, it's difficult for outsiders to set foot in our Pu Yan tribe's territory. I'll escort you for a while."

  The sudden change made Yuehen and Yuexi somewhat unaccustomed, Yuexi coldly snorted: "Who knows what you're thinking, entering your territory, not letting you slaughter us?"

  "I swear on the honor of being the son of the chief of the Pu tribe, I, Yan Shi, absolutely have no intention of deceiving anyone."

  Apart from Ah Dai and Xuan Yue, the four people of the Moon Scar Mercenary Group were shocked at the same time. They never thought that this big guy in front of them was actually the son of the leader of the Puyan tribe, one of the six major races of the Suo Domain Federation.

  Xuan Yue fiddled with the magic wand in his hand, saying indifferently: "Who cares whose son you are, if you want to come together, hurry up. Yue Hen big brother, let's get on the carriage." After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the horse-drawn carriage.

  "Brother Ah-Dai." The rock called out to Ah-Dai, who was just about to get on the horse carriage with Xuan Yue, and said: "Let's ride together ahead, I have some things I want to ask you."

  Ah-Dai turned his head to look at Xuan Yue, Xuan Yue glanced at the rock and said: "Go, go, if your injury gets worse, I won't be responsible for you. Hmph." After finishing speaking, he got on the horse carriage by himself.

  Yan Shi burst out laughing and ordered one of his subordinates to give up their mount to Ah Diao, shouting "Brothers, the road ahead is open!"

  A'Dai was riding a horse for the first time, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. As soon as he got on the horse, the tall and majestic horse swayed slightly, and with A'Dai's weight of over 100 pounds plus the weight of the TianGang sword, it indeed felt a bit heavy. A'Dai grasped the reins tightly, his legs clamped tightly around the horse's belly, and his face was filled with an awkward expression, because his horse remained stationary, not moving forward at all.

  The rock looked at Ah Diao's posture and knew he couldn't ride a horse. He laughed and said, "What? Brother Ah Diao, is this your first time riding a horse?"

  Ah-Dai nodded with a red face.

  "Doesn't matter, riding a horse is actually quite simple. Brother will teach you a few tricks. Don't be so stiff all over, relax a bit, lean your body forward, and gently tap the horse's belly, it'll start walking. Yes, yes, that's right. Don't hold the reins too tight, loosen them up a bit, or the horse won't feel comfortable. See, isn't this great? When turning, your body should tilt in that direction, then lightly pull on the reins, and the horse will listen to you. When you want it to stop, sit back, hold both hands on the reins at the same time, and that's it."

  A'Dai pressed the rock according to the method, and indeed drove the fine horse under his crotch, slowly starting to accelerate, with a sense of wonder.

  Yuè Hén and others have all boarded the horse carriage. As soon as they got on, Miào Fēi couldn't wait to ask Xuán Yuè: "Miss Xuán Yuè, why didn't we hear you mention before that ā Dāi knew martial arts?"

  Xuan Yue glared at him and said, "What's so special about us that we have to tell you everything? Who says Ah Dai is skilled in martial arts? He just has a bit more strength than others."

  Yuè Hén and others have been practicing martial arts for many years. The momentum and power displayed during the fight between ā Dāi and Yán Shí just now were by no means just a matter of having more strength, especially that faint white aura, which is a symbol of a high-level martial artist. Yuè Hén pulled back Yuè Jī who was about to ask questions and shook her head slightly towards her. Miáo Fēi also lost interest and stopped asking questions. Xuán Yuè leaned against the back of the chair and fell asleep again, and for a while, the carriage returned to silence, with only the sound of the wheels rumbling and the horseshoes hitting the ground.

  After a while, Ah-Dai had simply adapted to some simple horse riding movements, and with the help of the rocks, he could already follow him.

  Yan Shi walked in the front with Ah Dai, instructing his subordinates not to follow too closely. He then said: "Ah Dai brother, thank you for showing mercy earlier. Otherwise...".

  "Ah, come on, Rock Brother," Ah Dun said, rubbing his head, "don't say that. We don't have any deep grudges against each other. Why would I want to hurt you? We're just trying to pass through the noble's territory."

  Yan Shi nodded and said, "It's all my fault for being too impulsive. However, our Pu Yan tribe has always had some hostility towards other races on the mainland, which is why the previous scene occurred. But since you're a disciple of the Tian Gang Sword Sect, there won't be any problems. The Tian Gang Sword Sect is synonymous with justice! Oh, right, brother, here's something for you." Yan Shi then took out a pill the size of a dragon eye from his pocket and handed it to Ah Dai.

  A'Dai took it and asked: "Big Brother Rock, what is this thing?"

  The rock smiled and said, "Brother, eat it quickly. This is our Pu Yan tribe's secret healing medicine, Mie Shang Dan. Its effect is very good. Just now you changed your move to avoid hurting me and spat out blood. Your internal injury must be severe. After eating this, you don't have to worry. You'll be fine in half a day."

  A'Dai put the wound-healing pellet to his nose and sniffed, thinking for a moment before saying: "Rocky big brother, this wound-healing pellet is very precious! It contains Starlight Grass, Muscle-Relaxing Fruit, and Azure Chrysanthemum, all of which are extremely valuable medicinal ingredients. Are you really going to give it to me to eat?" After spending a year with Gorois, A'Dai had long since been able to identify medicinal herbs by their scent alone.

  "Brother, I didn't expect you to know about medicinal herbs! The exact formula for the Wound Healing Pill is only known by our clan's seer, but it seems like you've got all the right ingredients. You were injured for my sake, so eat this, it will be very beneficial for your wound."

  A'Dai nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Rock." After finishing speaking, he opened the wax paper outside the wound medicine pill and swallowed it.

  The rock chuckled and said, "Brother, don't be polite with me. To tell the truth, I really admire your skills. Growing up, there are very few people of the same age who can beat me. You're the first one. In the past, I was indeed too arrogant. There's always someone better than you out there! Just thinking about that last sword of yours still makes me shudder."

  After taking the wound-healing pellet, a surge of warmth instantly flowed towards his dantian, spreading throughout his body in an instant. The warm and cozy feeling was indescribable, and the pain in his chest completely disappeared. His internal true energy condensed even further under the stimulation of the medicine's power. Ah-Dai took a slight breath and said: "The medicinal power of the wound-healing pellet is indeed strong, my injuries are almost all healed. Brother Rock, actually my strength is no match for yours, it's just that the Heaven-Defying Sword is heavier than your knife, plus I might have been given auxiliary magic by Miss Xuan-Yue, so I was able to win against you."
