Chapter 313: Old Beggar Entrusts Orphan
In the stone house, inside the broken wall.
Zhang Xingyu laid the old beggar flat on the ground.
Using a bottle of life potion provided by Demon King Hali, the old beggar's injuries finally stabilized.
Using some spirit pills for treatment, the old beggar still had hope of recovery.
Zhang Xingyu let out a long breath.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said softly to Demon King Hali: "Thank you!"
Demon King Hali smiled sweetly and took out a copper mirror to touch up her makeup.
The little girl was still crying.
Zhang Xingyu comforted her softly: "Don't worry. Your grandpa will get better."
After comforting her for a while, Zhang Xingyu stood up and walked outside the wall to observe.
This stone house was hundreds of meters away from the square.
From afar, Zhang Xingyu saw the Drought Demon spraying fire non-stop like a human-shaped flamethrower.
Two red light shadows were shuttling back and forth in front of and behind it.
Light shadows repeated.
Zhang Xingyu watched for a while and was about to return to the house, but discovered Chu Kuangge and Yuan Wushang leading more than a dozen Ten Thousand Laws Gate disciples walking toward this side.
Yuan Wushang saw Zhang Xingyu, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Heaven has a path you don't take, hell has no gate you break in.
In the sect, there were sect rules restricting me from moving you, but once out of the mountain gate, that's not the same.
Once I catch you, I will make you wish you were dead.
Yuan Wushang thought secretly, and the surprise in his eyes gradually turned into ferocity.
"Hi! Senior Brother Yuan, long time no see!"
Zhang Xingyu waved at Yuan Wushang.
"Who is this person?" Chu Kuangge turned his head and asked Yuan Wushang.
"An inner sect disciple, named Zhang Xingyu," Yuan Wushang thought for a while and answered.
"Since he is an inner sect disciple, why didn't he come over to pay respects when he saw us?" Chu Kuangge stared at Zhang Xingyu and asked.
F***, this guy Chu Kuangge is really annoying.
Originally, Zhang Xingyu intended to greet him.
But now, he was too lazy to even open his mouth to him.
Just then, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and a warm smile had already replaced the one on his face.
"Senior Brother Yuan, I don't know if you have found the cave heaven magic treasure yet? Last time I heard you say you wanted to use the cave heaven magic treasure to advance to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, and then find an opportunity to beat our sect's Senior Brother Chu Kuangge into a pig's head?"
"Asshole! I never said that!" Yuan Wushang cursed.
He was afraid Chu Kuangge would misunderstand, so he hurriedly turned his head to explain: "Senior Brother Chu, I didn't!"
Chu Kuangge's eyebrows moved inadvertently.
It's working! Zhang Xingyu thought.
Rumors in the sect said that this Chu Kuangge was arrogant and conceited, and most feared others being stronger than himself.
"Senior Brother Yuan, what are you afraid of! Senior Brother Chu isn't here. Didn't you say Senior Brother Chu Kuangge often uses you as a servant, which is simply an insult to you, a genius disciple?"
"Zhang Xingyu, shut up! If you spread rumors again, I will kill you!" Yuan Wushang threatened viciously.
Seeing Chu Kuangge's face was a bit gloomy, he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain again.
"Senior Brother Chu, I really didn't say that. This kid has a grudge against me and is deliberately slandering and spreading rumors."
Zhang Xingyu saw Yuan Wushang explaining to Chu Kuangge, his heart moved, and then he opened his mouth to Yuan Wushang again: "Senior Brother Yuan, I just joined the sect and am not familiar with the senior brothers and sisters in the sect. Help me introduce them!"
Yuan Wushang glared at Zhang Xingyu, fire almost spraying from his eyes.
If knives could kill, he would have already killed Zhang Xingyu a hundred times.
Zhang Xingyu saw Yuan Wushang holding back his anger and decided to pour a big ladle of oil on him.
He cupped his fists at the surrounding Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Gate disciples and said: "Senior brothers and sisters, junior brother Zhang Xingyu pays his respects."
The people opposite looked at each other in dismay.
Chu Kuangge looked at Yuan Wushang, then glanced at Zhang Xingyu, and led the way without saying a word.
Pfft!
Isn't he just a True Transmission Disciple? What's so arrogant!
Wait until my beauty master becomes a True Transmission Disciple, I must let her beat this guy into a pig's head.
Zhang Xingyu turned and returned to the house.
At the moment of turning, a shrill roar suddenly came from afar.
"No!"
The roar carried anger, carried unwillingness.
In the center of the square, the Drought Demon fell to the ground like a golden mountain collapsing and a jade pillar toppling.
At the moment of falling, red light burst out from its body.
"Boom!"
Smoke rose, sparks flew.
The Drought Demon's fiery red body burst open like a firecracker.
At the door of the stone house, a spark shot over.
Zhang Xingyu reached out and grabbed the spark into his hand.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle.
The spark instantly scorched his skin, emitting a pungent, foul smell.
Zhang Xingyu shook his hand and threw the spark onto the ground.
He looked at his right hand; the palm was already charred, and the intense pain went deep into his soul.
He hurriedly took out a bottle of Black Jade Interrupted Connection Ointment and applied it to his hand.
A cool feeling came from his palm, making his pain slightly alleviate.
Zhang Xingyu turned his head to look at the spark at his feet.
This spark was only the size of a fingernail, deep red all over, with a cluster of golden flames flickering non-stop inside.
Zhang Xingyu's heart beat faster.
He channeled his true essence and picked up the spark.
The heat coming from the spark seemed to want to ignite him.
Profound Extreme Heavenly Fire?
Could this be the legendary Heaven-grade spirit fire, Profound Extreme Heavenly Fire?
With this flame, his fire-attribute spirit root could advance again.
Zhang Xingyu's heart became fanatical.
At this moment, he couldn't wait to refine this spark immediately.
However, reason told him he couldn't.
In this place where Heaven's Prides were eyeing him like tigers, if he were discovered, he was afraid he would fall into endless trouble.
Thinking of this, he took out a red jade box and carefully put the spark away.
After putting the jade box into his storage ring, he let out a light breath.
His heart was still excited.
Separated by the storage ring, he could still faintly feel the heat emitted by the spark.
Zhang Xingyu walked into the wall.
The old beggar had already woken up.
It was just that his injuries were still serious, but his spirit was much better.
Zhang Xingyu checked his body and felt that his injuries had a trace of improvement.
Under the nourishment of the life potion, the vitality in the old beggar's body increased by a few points.
After he finished checking his body, the old beggar opened his mouth.
"How many more days can I live?" the old beggar asked.
"Don't think blindly. You will get better," Zhang Xingyu comforted.
"No need to comfort me, I know my situation," the old beggar said.
"Grandpa, don't die. I don't allow you to die. As long as you don't die, I won't fight with you for things anymore," the little girl said crying.
The old beggar looked at Liu Yingxue, his eyes full of love.
"Silly girl. People always have to die. I have lived for tens of thousands of years, it's time to die!"
Zhang Xingyu was puzzled in his heart.
Was the old beggar confused? He was a mortal, yet he said he had lived for tens of thousands of years.
Just then, his wrist was tightly grabbed by the old beggar: "Zhang Xingyu, I want to ask you for a favor! If I die, take this girl with you. Being an apprentice or a maid is fine, just don't let her freeze or starve!" ===== CHAPTER 314 =====
