Chapter 279: Chapter 222: A Deep Sigh

...

As he stood up and walked toward the courtyard gate, a deep sigh escaped from Deng Wu’s lips. Before leaving, he turned around, and as he stepped out, pain flickered in his eyes.

Some things you don’t need to know, Deng Wu thought as he slipped away from his yard. The sorrow deep within his heart was evident, but no one was there to see it.

Early the next morning, before sunrise, Yan Xiaobao once again sat beneath his favorite tree, stringing the essence chain. When he heard the knock on the door, Yan Xiaobao gestured for them to enter, and the door slowly opened, allowing Deng Wu and others to pass through.

The Rong twins, along with Deng Wu and Ma Kong, sat before Yan Xiaobao, waiting for him to awaken. As they patiently sat there, each wore a solemn expression, avoiding looking elsewhere.

The heavy atmosphere stirred different emotions inside Yan Xiaobao. At first, he was glad to see his friends patiently avoiding disturbing him during his cultivation, but the intensity of their gaze made him curious about what could be so important as to bring all five of them here staring at him like this. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Their well-meaning intentions soon sparked Yan Xiaobao’s curiosity, and after a few minutes, he refined the essence he had previously collected.

"What’s wrong?" he asked as the Qi line joined the rest of the vortex.

"We’ve been wondering," Rong Ming started, "The cultivation technique you provided to Gao Yan, is there any chance we could have something similar?" Even Deng Wu seemed intrigued, his hope evident, but Yan Xiaobao had no choice but to shake his head. Lan Feng had previously explained this to Yan Xiaobao when he had posed the same question.

"Your current Qi cannot withstand the alteration of cultivation methods. Your only option is to empty your lower Dantian and start cultivating from scratch. If you wish for the finest Qi, you must accept that it might take you ten years to regain your current rank. Perhaps even longer."

Upon hearing this, the excited expressions gradually darkened as they felt slightly disappointed by the answer.

"I do have another way," Yan Xiaobao slowly said. "I have quite a number of spirit coins, which my teacher gave me after selling advanced martial arts skills," Yan Xiaobao continued. "I plan to use them to purchase medicine pills. Some of these pills will further purify your already refined Qi. If you put in enough effort and work hard, then when the time is right, you should be able to break through to the upper Dantian."

Rong Xing and the others were initially hesitant to accept this offer, but the prospect of free medicine pills was too tempting. Excitement rekindled in their eyes as they listened to the boy’s words.

Although Yan Xiaobao was five years younger, everyone considered him a person with profound knowledge in various fields. The expert residing within Yan Xiaobao allowed the youngest among them to become the one they turned to whenever faced with difficulties.

For this little boy to offer free pills, all those present vowed never to disappoint Yan Xiaobao. Even if he were to ask them to accompany him on a suicide mission, none of them would say no after witnessing his unwavering honesty.

After returning with medicine pills from the medicine pill outlet and distributing them to everyone present, Yan Xiaobao sat under his favorite tree once more. Lost in thought, his eyes fixated on the distant horizon.

Yan Xiaobao was neither thinking about Wang Julong nor about the competition or why he became stronger.

"Why do I feel such an intense impulse every time I fight?" He pondered as he asked Lan Feng, "What is it that you’re doing?" He questioned.

"No," Lan Feng slowly replied, then continued, "I don’t know why you think this way. I must admit, I too find the killing intent within you overwhelmingly strong." The Phoenix sounded alarmed, confused by the entire matter.

"I believe this killing intent locked deep in your heart might be strongly tied to why I returned with you to your previous world."

This made sense, but Yan Xiaobao had never killed anyone! Where did this immense killing intent come from?

"It might originate from your predecessors," Lan Feng mused. "Considering you were forcibly reincarnated, perhaps some remnants of your past lives have resurfaced."

"Another life?" Yan Xiaobao was stunned as the words echoed in his mind. He had never truly considered that he might not always have been Yan Xiaobao—that this could merely be one of his many incarnations, even though his only memories were of this life.

"Is it too overwhelming?" Lan Feng asked, perplexed. "Didn’t I already explain this when we talked about your little chick? When you die, your soul enters the meditation world, roaming there until all your memories fade. At that time, you will be reborn as another person on a different plane, commencing another life."

"You did mention that," Yan Xiaobao said, but he was only now beginning to grasp how heavy it would be if he suddenly remembered countless past lives.

"This is what you intend to do to Li Fen," Lan Feng remarked. "Are you certain about dragging out her memories from her previous incarnation? Is that really what you want?"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaobao couldn’t help but feel shaken. Indeed, everything stemmed from his selfish desires.

"I know," he sighed. "But something feels incomplete. I’m not trying to resurrect Li Fen in hopes that she’ll suddenly love me; I just feel the need to tell her how I truly feel. I never had the chance to do so before, but once I am strong enough, I can tell her. If, as it turns out, she’s already married with children, I’ll resurrect her entire family and find them a good place to live out a second life."
