Heavenly Life-saving Elixir, The Root Of All Evil!
Luo Yuer shook her head slightly.
She softly said, “Since Mother passed away, the frequency of those low-temperature episodes has become much more noticeable…”
Hearing of his wife’s death, Luo Dahai’s gaze dimmed slightly.
A flicker of pain and sadness crossed his eyes, as if he were lost in deep memories.
“Did your mother specialize in Fire Dao?”
Xie Fei asked aloud.
“Exactly!”
Luo Yuer nodded in surprise.
She hadn’t expected Xie Fei to suddenly ask this question.
But from Xie Fei’s tone, she seemed to sense a glimmer of hope.
“Your physique is somewhat special; you have a Yin Fire Body.”
Xie Fei looked at Luo Yuer and said earnestly, “But because your meridians weren’t opened since childhood,
“the Yin Fire has stagnated within you, causing your condition to worsen, and you don’t have long to live.”
As Xie Fei spoke, a Sword Qi shot from his fingertip and directly entered Luo Yuer’s body.
Unlike previous Sword Qi,
this Sword Qi actually carried a fiery red light.
The light pulsed, like real flames, carrying a scorching power.
As soon as this Sword Qi entered Luo Yuer’s body,
she let out a muffled groan.
Then her whole body froze completely.
Her face instantly turned pale, and large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
She looked very pained.
“Benefactor, what is this…?”
Luo Dahai was greatly startled.
Worried about his daughter, he quickly looked at Xie Fei, his eyes full of anxiety and inquiry.
“It’s alright.
“My Sword Qi is traveling through her meridians, clearing all the stagnant Yin Fire.”
Xie Fei gave an explanation.
“There are too many blocked areas now.
“With this stimulation, she currently feels like her meridians are severed, like a paralyzed ordinary person.
“But this is temporary; once the Yin Fire is cleared, her condition will improve.”
His words made Luo Dahai slightly relieved.
But his eyes were still filled with worry.
He cautiously watched his daughter and then looked at Xie Fei with immense gratitude.
After a short while,
Xie Fei retracted the Sword Qi.
Luo Yuer then gasped several times, her whole body trembling slightly.
Her eyes were filled with shock and gratitude, as if she had walked through the gates of hell and returned to the world of the living.
At this moment, she instantly seemed to be reborn, radiant.
Her originally pale face gradually regained its rosy color, and her aura became more stable.
Not only that,
after feeling the power contained within Xie Fei’s Sword Qi, Luo Yuer was incredibly shocked.
This young Benefactor, who looks too young to be a senior expert, actually possesses such terrifying strength!
Just a casual Sword Qi made her tremble and feel terror from the depths of her soul.
It’s like an elephant to an ant.
Even if the elephant doesn’t intend to kill the ant, just passing by will give the ant a huge shock!
“Thank you, Benefactor! Thank you, Benefactor!”
Seeing that his daughter was alright, Luo Dahai was so moved that tears streamed down his face.
His gratitude towards Xie Fei had reached an unparalleled level.
In his heart,
Xie Fei was their lifesaver!
Even if it meant giving his life at this moment, Luo Dahai wouldn’t hesitate for a second.
“Thank you… senior!”
Luo Yuer hesitated for a moment, bowing to Xie Fei with a complex gaze.
Her eyes were filled with respect and gratitude, as well as a trace of doubt and awe.
She didn’t understand.
Why Xie Fei had saved her; was it simply because of her father?
“It’s nothing, a simple act.”
Xie Fei smiled.
His smile was gentle and kind, making people feel like a Spring Breeze.
Luo Dahai then suddenly said, “Benefactor, I am eternally grateful for your kindness towards me!
“From now on, if the Benefactor speaks a single word, I, Luo Dahai, will give my life without hesitation!”
Saying this,
he immediately swore an oath by the Heavenly Dao: “This is witnessed by Heaven, the Heavenly Dao bears witness!
“If I violate this oath, may I, Luo Dahai, perish and cease to exist forever!”
Hearing this,
Xie Fei himself was surprised and quickly said, “You’re exaggerating; there’s no need for that.”
This made him feel a little embarrassed.
He hadn’t expected Luo Dahai’s reaction to be so strong, and he couldn’t help but sigh.
At this time,
he thought of something and said, “Right.
“Your daughter has just recovered, to prevent her meridians from becoming blocked again,
“it’s best to guide the Yin Fire energy in her body.”
Hearing it concerned his daughter,
Luo Dahai immediately said, “Benefactor is right, Yuer, quickly go back and consolidate the opportunity the Benefactor bestowed, don’t delay!”
After seeing Luo Yuer leave,
Luo Dahai slowly turned around.
He had an unprecedentedly serious expression on his face, as if he had made an important decision.
Then he deeply bowed, performing a profound bow towards Xie Fei.
“Benefactor, I’ve decided!”
Luo Dahai’s voice was low and powerful: “As long as I am in the Jade Snail Clan, as the Clan Leader,
“the entire Jade Snail Clan will respect the Benefactor as supreme!
“This will never change!”
Xie Fei was truly stunned to hear these words.
He hadn’t expected Luo Dahai to do this.
But it was a bit too exaggerated.
Xie Fei pondered silently in his heart.
But seeing Luo Dahai’s earnest expression, he didn’t know what to say.
Actually, in Luo Dahai’s heart,
Xie Fei had saved his life twice, and now he had saved his daughter.
The sum of these favors was as heavy as ten thousand mountains in his eyes.
He didn’t think it was an exaggeration at all; he even felt it was far from enough.
However, his own cultivation was too low, and the Jade Snail Clan wasn’t a Great Power, unable to give the Benefactor any proper thanks.
He could only express his gratitude in this way.
At this moment, the System’s voice suddenly rang out in Xie Fei’s mind.
…
【Ding! Host’s investment in Luo Yuer is successful!】
【Congratulations, Host, you have received a rebate!】
【Due to the investment target’s Fate Aura being Gold, the rebate effect is doubled!】
【Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained the Talent “Fire Attribute Affinity”!】
【Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained 1000 Ordinary Grade Spirit Stones!】
【Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained a Heaven Grade Life-Protecting Golden Pill!】
…
【Fire Attribute Affinity（Talent）: Those with this Talent have a natural affinity for the Fire Dao; whether cultivating or using Fire Methods, they can achieve a roughly twofold increase!】
【1000 Ordinary Grade Spirit Stones】：……
【Heaven Grade Life-Protecting Golden Pill: A Spirit Pill that has reached the Heaven Grade! Its medicinal power is immense, its effects miraculous; it can reverse vitality and reconstruct everything at the brink of death!】
…
The Fire Attribute Affinity Talent.
For Xie Fei, who possesses the Blazing Fire Dao inheritance, is extremely suitable.
This is like a key, instantly opening the door to his Fire Dao.
“Last time it was an Earth Grade Life-Protecting Golden Pill; this time, I actually received a Heaven Grade one as a rebate.”
This made Xie Fei very satisfied.
After all, if it weren’t for that Earth Grade Life-Protecting Golden Pill, he would have died under the Transformation Lightning Tribulation.
Those Lightning Tribulation transformed vitalities wouldn’t help him reconstruct his flesh.
They would only help him rebuild his flesh and improve his cultivation after seeing that he was still alive and had withstood the tribulation’s test.
This Heaven Grade Life-Protecting Golden Pill undoubtedly gave him another layer of protection.
…
The main island of the Jade Snail Clan was newly decorated.
The grand welcoming banquet officially began.
Although time was tight, Luo Dahai still showed the Jade Snail Clan’s sincerity.
Although the scale couldn’t compare to those large sects,
for the Jade Snail Clan, they had done their best.
The Jade Snail Clan members enthusiastically entertained Xie Fei, offering him delicious food and fine wine.
Even though there weren’t any exceptionally outstanding delicacies or immortal brews, they still made Xie Fei feel at home.
The Clan members had sincere smiles on their faces, their eyes filled with reverence for Xie Fei.
At the same time, at the banquet, Luo Dahai also directly announced Xie Fei’s status in the Jade Snail Clan.
He stood on the high platform with Xie Fei and said loudly, “From now on, Benefactor Xie Fei is the supreme elder of our Jade Snail Clan!
“No one is allowed to neglect the Benefactor; they must do their utmost to serve the Benefactor.”
A crowd of Jade Snail Clan members welcomed him, shouting Xie Fei’s name.
Now that Luo Dahai was back in power, plus the support of the only Grotto-Heaven Realm Jade Snail Clan member, Luo Dahai,
there was simply no one in the entire Clan who dared to oppose…
After the banquet,
Xie Fei was about to leave amidst a crowd of people seeing him off.
But at that moment,
a whistling sound suddenly came from the sky.
Everyone looked up.
They saw a huge Aerial Pavilion suddenly flying towards the Jade Snail Archipelago.
This Pavilion was like a floating giant mountain, imposing and exuding a heart-stopping pressure.
As the Pavilion approached,
a powerful aura surged.
The surrounding seawater seemed to be subjected to a tremendous impact, making continuous booming sounds.
Boom!
The Pavilion slowly stopped in mid-air.
Its enormous body blocked out the sun.
The powerful Magic Array Restriction was like a heavy mountain pressing down from the sky, causing the Jade Snail Clan members to panic.
Many of them had never seen such a powerful being before.
They were immediately so frightened that their legs went weak, and they almost collapsed to the ground.
“This is…?”
Luo Dahai was stunned.
He looked at this luxurious building with some bewilderment, his heart full of doubts.
As the Clan Leader of the Jade Snail Clan, he had seen many Treasures and powerful Magical Treasures.
But the aura emanating from this Aerial Pavilion far exceeded his understanding.
Xie Fei was also taken aback.
The reason he was stunned wasn’t because the Magic Array was so strong.
In his opinion, although this Magic Array was powerful, could it be stronger than the Dragon Palace Treasury’s?
It was mainly because this Pavilion was truly too luxurious and extravagant.
The exterior of the Pavilion was exquisitely carved and decorated, inlaid with countless precious gems and spirit materials, emitting a mesmerizing light.
Any of the materials on it,
taken individually, could be used to refine high-quality Spirit Artifacts, or even Treasure Artifacts!
Xie Fei’s gaze swept over the Pavilion, and he couldn’t help but marvel secretly.
“This is too…”
Expensive!
At this moment, the only word that came to his mind was “expensive.”
As the Pavilion came to a stop,
several figures flew out from it.
These figures lightly landed in front of Xie Fei.
Because the Jade Snail Clan members were all seeing Xie Fei off, he was standing at the front.
The other party clearly took him as the Jade Snail Clan’s spokesperson.
“May I ask this brother’s name?”
As soon as Wan Batian appeared, he smiled and clasped his hands towards Xie Fei.
His slightly greasy smile,
coupled with his ferocious face,
made him look as scary as could be.
But Xie Fei looked at Wan Batian and his group with an amused gaze.
A Qi Refining Level One kid whose foundation was unstable from excessive pill consumption and whose aura was disordered.
With a Golden Core Level Nine beauty nestled in his arms.
And beside him was a hidden Transformation Level Five expert.
This expert’s aura was concealed by a special Method.
If Xie Fei didn’t have keen Perception, he wouldn’t have noticed it.
This scene,
really amused Xie Fei.
Seeing that the other party hadn’t answered him,
Wan Batian frowned in doubt and said, “My name is Wan Batian, I’m from Jinling in the Southern Border.
“Do you not understand Human Race speech, or…?”
This man, with his lewd appearance and ferocious face, was actually quite polite!
Xie Fei shook his head internally, sighing inwardly: It’s a pity that even with all that money, he’s still trash.
Jinling City.
He naturally knew it.
It was the capital of the Great Yong Dynasty, ranked among the top ten cities in the Southern Border alongside Yudou City.
It was one of the most prosperous cities in the Southern Border.
“Xie Fei.”
Xie Fei smiled and replied.
He didn’t sense any malice from this Wan Batian.
“So it’s Brother Xie!”
Wan Batian clasped his hands again: “I, Wan, have a matter I would like to ask Brother Xie for help with.”
“Oh?” Xie Fei raised an eyebrow.
“My concubine wants a musical instrument made from Jade Snail shells to play with; I wonder if Brother Xie could do us a favor?”
Wan Batian said very politely.
Xie Fei’s mouth twitched upon hearing this.
A Golden Core Level Nine is your concubine?
You’re only at Qi Refining Level One!
Wicked rich people!
Seeing Xie Fei silent and with a strange expression,
Wan Batian thought he was unwilling, so he quickly said, “I can buy it with Spirit Stones.
“Ten thousand… no! One hundred thousand Spirit Stones!
“How about that?”
One hundred thousand Spirit Stones…
For a useless musical instrument.
Xie Fei took a deep breath and turned to Luo Dahai, who was standing half a step behind.
“I’m not a member of the Jade Snail Clan; he is the Clan Leader.
“If you want a Jade Snail musical instrument, you can talk to him.”
Although there was a Jade Snail flute in the System Space,
Xie Fei wouldn’t casually take it out.
The items from the System Rebate, unless they were people he trusted, he wouldn’t easily give them out.
Who knows if there might be something in this world that could trace things back to their origins.
Not to mention a wicked rich person like Wan Batian, whose origins were unknown.
Absolutely not.
Hearing this, Wan Batian immediately turned to Luo Dahai and asked for it.
“One hundred thousand Spirit Stones?”
Luo Dahai’s heart was moved, and he quickly said, “Someone! Go get this Young Master Wan a high-quality musical instrument!”
For the Jade Snail Clan, one hundred thousand Spirit Stones was definitely not a small sum.
The Jade Snail Clan had plenty of musical instruments.
Every time a Clan member molted, the old shells that were useless were used to make musical instruments, which were then sold.
This was also one of their main sources of income.
Over time,
the Jade Snail Clan’s musical instruments had gained some reputation in the Mystic Continent.
“By the way, it has to be a xiao!
“My concubine loves playing the xiao!”
Wan Batian shouted loudly.
