Chapter 391: Chapter 391 Plague Seed_1
Apart from being injured, Shangguan Lei’s most serious problem was actually the poison from the plague.
However, this was not an issue for Ling Xiao.
He absorbed all the poison from the plague, using it to nourish the Plague Demon King’s Martial Soul.
Before long, Shangguan Lei regained consciousness from his coma.
Upon seeing Ling Xiao, Shangguan Lei immediately relaxed, then asked in surprise, "Junior Brother Ling, what about the Plague Demon King?"
Ling Xiao replied indifferently, "Dead!"
He didn’t explain further, and Shangguan Lei didn’t dare to ask more.
Shangguan Lei was well aware that his junior brother had many secrets; the less he knew, the better off he would be.
He had resolved that he would definitely not become enemies with Ling Xiao in the future. Although he didn’t know how the Plague Demon King had died, he was certain it must have been by Junior Brother Ling’s hand.
Before he passed out, he had distinctly felt an extremely terrifying presence.
If it wasn’t the Plague Demon King’s breath, then there was only one possibility: this Junior Brother Ling had concealed his strength.
He had been foolish enough to consider this monster an enemy. He really was tired of living.
Perhaps Junior Brother Ling was even more formidable than Hei Suo, and his future achievements might not be less than Meng Yuan’s.
He definitely needed to choose sides wisely.
"Elder Brother Shangguan, do you plan to fit a puppet limb for your leg, or would you like it to regrow?"
Ling Xiao needed Shangguan Lei to owe him a favor so that if the sect inquired about it, Shangguan Lei would certainly be inclined towards him.
Having fewer enemies and more friends was always better.
He and Shangguan Lei initially had no grudge, and there was no need to become sworn enemies over those two guys, Hei Suo and Meng Yuan.
"Of course it would be better for it to regrow, but I don’t have that capability," Shangguan Lei said with a wry smile.
"That’s easy."
Ling Xiao said blandly, "I once cultivated the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique, which can use gold to regenerate lost limbs. Initially, it could only be used on myself, but later I studied and modified it to work on others, although the True Essence consumption would terrifyingly increase by tenfold."
"Junior Brother Ling, rest assured, you have saved my life, and if you also heal my severed leg, even if I, Shangguan Lei, lacked any conscience, I still wouldn’t harm you," Shangguan Lei said gratefully upon hearing Ling Xiao’s words, "After we return to the Moon Hua Sect, I will severe my ties with Meng Yuan and Hei Suo and stop contacting them."
"There’s no need for that," Ling Xiao said with a smile, "Elder Brother needn’t behave too differently. Just continue to get along with Hei Suo and Meng Yuan."
"I understand!"
Shangguan Lei was secretly amazed. Ling Xiao wasn’t even fifteen years old, but his mind was so mature. Doing this would mean having him watch over Hei Suo and Meng Yuan for Ling Xiao.
Impressive!
Shangguan Lei admired him immensely and thought that for Ling Xiao to have achieved his current accomplishments despite Hei Suo’s constant oppression and interference, he must be truly clever. Otherwise, he would have likely died without understanding why long ago.
One hour later.
Ling Xiao’s forehead was covered with large beads of sweat, and his face was somewhat pale.
But Shangguan Lei’s severed leg had completely regrown.
This was the first time Ling Xiao used the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique to heal someone else, which was why he was not very proficient, leading to such great consumption.
"Junior Brother Ling, you rest here first, and I’ll go find something to eat," Shangguan Lei said upon seeing Ling Xiao’s exhausted state.
"Yes, go ahead, and by the way, bring all the slaves here. They have all been seeded with the plague by the Plague Demon King, and once they leave the Underground Demon Cave, they will surely die from the poison. I need to figure out a way to remove all the Plague Seeds from their bodies," Ling Xiao responded with a nod, then closed his eyes to begin his recovery.
Although the expenditure was tremendous, what surprised him was that his Cultivation Level seemed to be on the verge of advancing.
After Shangguan Lei left, he took a Soul Essence Pill.
The potency of this low-grade Yellow Grade pill was indeed formidable.
If it had been taken during the Martial Vein Realm, he would probably have died from bleeding out of all seven orifices.
But now, his cultivation level had already reached the early stages of the Transcendent Realm Second Layer, so naturally there was no problem.
In addition, with the suppression of the Ancient Golden Dragon blood and the Mountain and River Martial Soul, even a low-grade yellow pill dared not act up.
After a full half an hour, Ling Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, and from them shot two beams of golden light that seemed almost tangible.
He had broken through!
And with this breakthrough, he advanced from the early stages of the Transcendent Realm Second Layer straight to the pinnacle, only a step away from the Transcendent Realm Third Layer.
He could feel that this mission had been of great help to him.
It wasn’t just because of the Soul Essence Pill; mainly, it was the immense benefits he reaped from combat.
Especially in the battle with the Plague Demon King, where the slightest mistake could have led to his death on the spot, he was on high alert the entire time.
His True Essence was under immense pressure, continuously boiling and growing.
Finally, he had progressed naturally to the next level.
By his side, Shangguan Lei was sitting cross-legged, protecting him.
Before him, were the villagers of the valley, their eyes filled with fear.
They were all kneeling there, trembling with trepidation, especially as they were intimidated by the golden light in Ling Xiao’s eyes, which made their bodies shake even more violently.
"There is no need to be afraid; I am Ling Xiao, a disciple of the Moon Hua Sect. I came to the valley to rescue everyone this time, and the Plague Demon King you all fear has been slain by me!"
Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"So it turns out to be a high-ranking expert from the Moon Hua Sect!"
"We are saved!"
"But is that Demon Lord really dead? The plague seeds in our bodies haven’t disappeared."
Upon hearing Ling Xiao’s words, the people below began discussing amongst themselves, filled with excitement and worry.
"Capture!"
Ling Xiao did not explain, but simply raised his hand, and behind him faintly appeared the shadow of the Plague Demon King’s Martial Soul.
Only Shangguan Lei could see this phantom; the Martial Vein Realm martial artists and ordinary people could not.
Ling Xiao did this to avoid trouble.
It wouldn’t be good if he were mistaken for an incarnation of the Plague Demon King.
As the Plague Demon King’s Martial Soul appeared, thousands of Plague Seeds turned into a green light, flew out of the bodies of the slaves, and then all merged into the Martial Soul.
After the Plague Demon King’s Martial Soul had done its job, it slowly vanished again.
"Long live the Moon Hua Sect!"
"Long live Master Ling!"
The slaves, originally villagers of the valley, with some even being martial artists from the Martial Vein Realm, had faced calamity, thinking they would spend the rest of their lives this way.
Without seeing the light of day, they expected only sorrow until death.
However, the arrival of Ling Xiao changed everything.
They were actually freed from the terrible plague seeds and returned to normal.
"Among you, who can take up the responsibility?"
Ling Xiao asked.
Three people stepped forward from the crowd.
An elder and two young men.
"I am an elder of Green Valley, and these two are the sons of the Valley Master of Green Valley,"
the old man explained.
"Very well."
Ling Xiao waved his hand, and tens of thousands of silver coins were taken out from the Mountain and River World.
"These silver coins are for you to rebuild the valley. There is no more plague here, and I hope Green Valley can be as beautiful as it was before."
A mere tens of thousands of silver coins meant little to Ling Xiao, but it allowed him to do a good deed and build goodwill, something he was naturally inclined to do.
