"Seen it? Maybe…."

Kun Long replied hesitantly, his Tone full of Uncertainty.

It's been too long; His Seat's Divine Soul is severely damaged, and many things are fuzzy. But this aura does feel somewhat familiar.

Jiang Feng listened, and couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed.

He had thought Kun Long could recognize Yao Lao's identity, but it turned out to be nothing.

"But back to the point, kid!"

Suddenly, Kun Long's tone shifted, with a hint of urgency.

"These Golden Pills you must not devour alone! His Seat, to save you, exhausted Nine Soul Power, almost truly annihilated the Divine Soul, quick, leave some for His Seat, or I won't be done with you!"

Jiang Feng heard this and was both amused and exasperated; the guy was really straightforward.

But recalling that Kun Long had indeed risked his life to save him, his heart eased.

Fine, splitting the Golden Pill in half won't hurt.

"I'll give you half; you refine it yourself, quickly recover Soul Power, lest when trouble truly comes you can't help."

"Hehe, now that's reasonable!"

Kun Long immediately broke into a joyous grin.

"Rest assured, once His Seat recovers, I'll take you to show off and fly!"

Jiang Feng said no more, and with a thought, extracted seven Martial Path Golden Pills from the Porcelain Bottle and sent them directly into his spirit world.

Kun Long, unable to wait any longer, a surge of dragon qi swept in at once, enveloping the seven Golden Pills, then swiftly sinking into the depths of the spirit world to begin refining.

Almost instantly, a massive wave of dragon qi subtly overflowed from Jiang Feng's body.

Jiang Feng could clearly feel that Kun Long in the spirit world was rapidly absorbing the energy of the Golden Pills, and its aura grew visibly stronger.

Soon after, Kun Long let out a loud belch.

"Not bad, not bad, the quality of this Martial Path Golden Pill is truly high; with just this batch, His Seat has at least recovered three Soul Power, so it wasn't in vain helping you, kid!"

As the words fell, Kun Long's aura steadied and fell back into silence.

Jiang Feng paid it no mind, and his attention returned to the Porcelain Bottle in his hand.

The remaining seven Martial Path Golden Pills were plump, each emitting an enticing pill fragrance.

Jiang Feng inhaled deeply, picked up one, and shoved it straight into his mouth.

The Golden Pill dissolved on entry, without any bitterness, instead carrying a faint sweet mellow.

The next second, a massive surge of energy erupted from his dantian, racing along his Meridians.

Jiang Feng subconsciously closed his eyes, guiding the energy to circulate within his body.

The damaged Meridians were wrapped by this energy, and the broken fragments, nourished by it, began to heal slowly.

Originally empty, the dantian, under the energy's infusion, Gradually showed a trace of true Qi's ripple.

Jiang Feng could clearly feel his true Qi rapidly coalescing.

After an uncertain amount of time, Jiang Feng slowly opened his eyes, a spark flashing in his pupils.

He looked inward and was delighted to discover that a single Martial Path Golden Pill had restored one tenth of his true Qi!

However, given his current condition, he could only ingest one Golden Pill per day at most.

"One per day, seven days will restore seventy percent of true Qi; with Meridians continuously healing, it won't be long before I regain peak strength!"

Excitement surged in Jiang Feng's heart, and the massive stone pressing on him finally loosened considerably.

Just then, the room's Wood door was gently pushed open, and Xi Er entered with a tall young man.

The man wore coarse short cotton garments, his muscular lines clear, appearing robust, his eyes carrying a hint of caution.

Xi Er, upon entering, immediately saw Jiang Feng's complexion much improved and broke into a radiant smile.

"Jiang Feng, you look much better! Looks like Yao Lao's Elixir really works, now I can rest easy!"

She then pointed at the man beside her and introduced him.

"By the way, this is my brother Hong Tian; we rescued you together on the Mountain road earlier."

Jiang Feng quickly sat up and clasped fists with Hong Tian.

"Thank you, Brother Hong, for stepping in to save me; Jiang Feng is deeply grateful."

Hong Tian merely sized Jiang Feng up, his gaze full of guard, and said stiffly.

"Hey, if you're feeling better enough, hurry and leave. We've rescued you, our duty is fulfilled, we have no obligation to keep nursing you."

Jiang Feng's smile froze instantly, and a wry laugh rose in his heart.

Sure enough, aside from Xi Er, the others in Taoyuan Village were not welcoming him.

Jiang Feng was about to explain a few words when Xi Er angrily cut Hong Tian off, glaring at him.

"Brother! How can you say that? Jiang Feng's injuries aren't healed yet; Yao Lao said he must rest here longer before leaving! If you send him off now and Danger arises, what then?"

"What danger could there be?"

Hong Tian frowned, his tone a bit impatient.

"Besides, we don't even know who he is; what if he's a bad person…"

"Jiang Feng is certainly not that kind of person!"

Xi Er stamped his foot, his face resolute.

"Moreover, Yao Lao agreed he could convalesce here; on what grounds do you drive him away?"

Hong Tian seemed helpless against his sister, and after her outburst, he just rolled his eyes fiercely and fell silent.

Xi Er ignored Hong Tian, turned to Jiang Feng, and took his hand.

"Jiang Feng, ignore my brother; that's just how he is, wary of everyone. Staying cooped up isn't good either; how about I take you out for a walk?"

Jiang Feng saw Xi Er's sincere eyes and felt a warm glow in his heart.

"Alright, then I'll trouble Miss Xi Er."

"No trouble, no trouble!"

Xi Er laughed happily, took Jiang Feng's hand, and carefully helped him out of bed.

Jiang Feng now has a Recovery of one‑tenth true Qi, Walking is no longer a problem.

He followed Xi Er out of the room, Hong Tian in Back let out a cold snort, his face displeased, and turned back to his own room.

Stepping out of the house, a rush of fresh air hit his face, making Jiang Feng instantly feel Divine and refreshed.

Xi Er's home is a modest farmhouse courtyard; though small, it is kept spotless.

Xi Er supported Jiang Feng, slowly walked out of the courtyard, and a tranquil, beautiful small Mountain village came into view.

In the distance lie continuous green Mountains, the Mountain is lush, shrouded in clouds and mist, looking like a fairyland.

Jiang Feng followed Xi Er along the village path, slowly walking, while Xi Er walked and introduced the village's situation to her.

"Our Taoyuan Village isn't large, only a few dozen households; the villagers are very Kindness‑filled, except my brother's side, who are a bit wary of strangers, don't take it to heart."

Jiang Feng simply smiled without caring.

"I understand; if it were me, I'd also be cautious of Suddenly appearing outsiders, it's fine."

"Sss!"

Just as the two were walking and talking, Jiang Feng's Kun Long suddenly emitted an uncertain sound.

"Something's off here, Little Jiang Feng! I just sensed that within Taoyuan Village there's a hidden great formation, and it's an ancient guardian formation!"

Jiang Feng's heart jolted, and his face showed a surprised expression.

Ancient guardian formation?
