Chapter 505: 278 Brain Problems (First Update)

As Bai Ye spoke, Fang Yuxin had already reached the White Tiger’s side, pressing her hand against its wound and quietly treating it.

The Mutated White Tiger was sprawled on the ground and emitted a warning growl from its throat as she approached, looking as if it wanted to stand up, but it did not attack directly. When it sensed the pure Wood Energy being released from Fang Yuxin’s hand, it promptly lay back down and looked at Fang Yuxin with its large golden eyes, unexpectedly obedient.

Fang Yuxin arched an eyebrow; this Mutated White Tiger did not seem like a wild beast but more like one that had been trained by humans, probably having escaped from some zoo.

Since the Mutated White Tiger was severely injured, she didn’t think too much and carefully washed its wound with water before using Wood Energy to treat its injuries. It was indeed very intelligent; its fur spikes had originally sealed the wound, but seeing Fang Yuxin about to treat it, it retracted the spikes voluntarily.

The fur spikes were originally embedded in the skin of the wound like needles, holding the split skin together. When retracted, the wound reopened, a long slash from which blood seeped out, looking both miserable and pitiful.

Fang Yuxin was exceptionally swift in her actions. After the Wood Energy was injected, the wound healed at a visibly rapid pace. After healing, except for the bloodstains and watermarks around the wound, there was no sign that an injury had ever been there.

As she began to work, Bai Ye stepped back to stand behind her, blocking the line of sight from someone not far away, preventing him from clearly seeing Fang Yuxin’s movements.

The man had been hiding behind a tree trunk, but after Bai Ye spoke, he came out.

Bai Ye was slightly surprised to see him; the person had a baby face, with round eyes and fair skin, looking quite thin and unusually young, almost like a teenager. However, there was a persistence and madness in his eyes, clearly not that of a harmless youth.

His attire was also somewhat strange; he wore a camouflaged canvas combat uniform, but his wrists were wrapped with cloth bands as wristguards, and a cloth band was wrapped around his waist as a belt, which looked rather incongruous.

Bai Ye secretly sensed the energy fluctuations emanating from the man and discovered that he should be a Second-level Enhancement Superpower User. Strangely, it seemed that he had enhanced more than one aspect.

This was the first time Bai Ye had encountered such a person, so he inevitably felt vigilant. Seeing the man walking towards them, he asked, "Who are you?" Right after speaking, Bai Ye felt a twinge of regret; the young man had been staring at him all along, his eyes shining. He seemed somewhat off.

Before he could say anything more, the young man said, "My name is Zhou Han! I saw everything just now; your swordsmanship is really impressive! I’ve loved martial arts since I was a child, but I could never find a master. Can you take me as your apprentice and teach me the sword techniques you just used?" As he spoke, he slightly furrowed his brows and then pulled a branch from a nearby tree, snapping it to the length of a sword and started practicing with it in his hand.

Bai Ye noticed that the man was demonstrating the swordsmanship he had just used himself; it’s just that since he hadn’t undergone Cultivation, the practiced sword moves lacked power. However, his strength must have been enhanced; he only held an ordinary branch and yet swung it with a force that seemed to tear the air apart.

This man... indeed had the makings of a good martial artist.

Bai Ye thought to himself but had no intention of taking him as an apprentice. He had inherited the Dragon Scale Sword’s legacy, which he could cultivate himself and not pass on to others.

Moreover, with the man’s mysterious background and his reliability not yet clear, he could not possibly accept an apprentice based just on a few words from the other party.

Therefore, when the young man finished practicing the few moves of Bai Ye’s swordsmanship, his head drenched with sweat and his eyes gleaming as he looked at Bai Ye, Bai Ye simply shook his head, "You should leave, I won’t take you as an apprentice." After a moment’s thought, he added, "I can see that you are strong; there’s no need for you to take me as your master."

Yet to Bai Ye’s surprise, the young man furrowed his brows and insisted, "That won’t do! You are the most incredible person I’ve seen, and I must apprentice under you! If you don’t agree, I’ll keep following you until you do!"

Hearing this, Bai Ye started to get a little angry; he felt once more that the young man’s mind wasn’t quite right, making him even less willing to take him as an apprentice.
