Chapter 25: Rescue

At this moment, it seemed as if the heaven and earth had transformed into a single string, and the shadow of a giant hand turned into a finger, gently landing on the string.

'Zing~~~'

Endless sound waves surged around like sea waves.

Wherever the sound waves passed, all the Soul Eater Bees seemed to lose their souls and fell to the ground.

Xu Fan struggled to support his body, placed the two unconscious people on the Lingfeng Boat, and quickly flew away.

Behind him, the sky-covering Soul Eater Bee Swarm seemed like half of a cotton candy being bitten off, frightened and flying towards their hive.

On a sandy beach by a lake, the pale-faced Xu Fan was roasting a plump wild chicken, with the two unconscious people lying beside him.

"I didn't expect the side effects of using the Big Move to be so serious, I don't know how long it will take to recover."

"I feel like I've lost a bit too much."

As Xu Fan spoke, he glanced at the couple who often showed off their love in front of him.

As soon as Xu Fan finished speaking, he felt a surge of blood rushing to his heart and quickly swallowed a high-grade Green Wood Pill to begin healing.

Now, Xu Fan's body was filled with Spiritual Power Malfunction and Qi disorder; it would be difficult to recover to his previous level without a few days of cultivation.

"It seems like I can't use techniques that consume spiritual power in the next few days, but I can still use spirit-based ones." Xu Fan looked at the Earth Dragon Beast in the distance, which had been controlled and was at the 10th level of Qi Cultivation.

With the Earth Dragon Beast guarding, they could safely get through these few days.

At this moment, Wang Yulun slowly woke up.

"Is this Hell?" Wang Yulun was still in a daze.

"Yes, you were sent to the Eighteen Layers of Hell for involving your friends."

Xu Fan leisurely spoke as he turned the roasting chicken, thinking that this kid was fortunate to have met him.

It was then that Wang Yulun suddenly realized.

"I didn't die!"

"Brother Xu, you saved me and Qian'er."

Wang Yulun spoke, twisting his thigh slightly, and began to giggle as he looked at his wife beside him.

Xu Fan glanced at Wang Yulun and then continued his pursuit of roasting the perfect chicken.

A bottle of high-grade Settling Spirit Pill was thrown beside Wang Yulun.

"You and your wife were injured by the Sound Killer, right now you're a bit mentally disturbed. Take a pill. Don't leave any sequelae." Xu Fan spoke indifferently, a hint of sadness in his tone. Settling Spirit Pill was a first-grade elixir, and the cost of this bottle alone was 5 or 600 Spirit Stones.

Wang Yulun picked up the elixir and gratefully said, "Brother Xu, this is the second time you've saved me, thank you."

His tone was extremely sincere, giving the impression that he would offer anything if needed.

Xu Fan shuddered, he couldn't quite handle such an emotional tone.

"You have to pay all these back, my fee is 20,000 Spirit Stones, and this bottle of Settling Spirit Pill is 2,000 Spirit Stones. Remember to give it to me when we return to the sect."

Wang Yulun's face tightened as he realized he didn't have that many Spirit Stones, but soon smiled and said cheekily, "I'll owe you for now, and I'll pay you back 1 million Spirit Stones when I have them."

At this time, Murong Qian'er woke up slowly, looking at the scene before her and pinching Wang Yulun instinctively.

"Husband, does it hurt?" Murong Qian'er whispered, feeling that she was still alive.

"Of course, it hurts." Wang Yulun spoke with a pained expression.

"Husband, we didn't die."

"Thank you, Brother Xu, for your life-saving grace."

Murong Qian'er tried to struggle to stand up, only to find that she was powerless and unable to mobilize her Spiritual Power.

After taking a Settling Spirit Pill handed over by Wang Yulun, she finally regained her breath.

At this moment, Xu Fan's roasting business had been completed, and he started gnawing on a sizzling, oily chicken leg that he tore off.

"Tell me, who has had a cerebral thrombosis for years and never recovered, daring to provoke the Soul Eater Bee?"

Xu Fan said while gnawing on the chicken leg, looking at the two. They were really good at courting death.

Wang Yulun scratched his head embarrassingly and said, "Our plan was foolproof, but something went wrong halfway through, and as a result, we were discovered by the Soul Eater Bees."

"I originally thought that with the Secret Method Brother Xu taught, I could easily escape, but I was thinking too much."

Xu Fan's mouth twitched, blaming him for not providing an exciting enough Secret Method.

"I just want to know what you were doing provoking that thing."

At this time, Murong Qian'er lowered her head in shame.

"The honey produced by Soul Eater Bees has beautifying, anti-aging, and life-extending properties. Especially for people with hidden injuries, long-term use can eliminate those injuries."

"Qian'er's mother gave birth to Qian'er when her family encountered a powerful enemy invading. She went to fight the enemy right after giving birth to Qian'er, and after that, she fell ill."

"I heard that the honey of Soul Eater Bees can eliminate hidden injuries, and most importantly, with the honey, I can propose marriage to Qian'er's family."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan understood. Another poor guy facing a huge betrothal gift, cursed mother-in-law.

"Considering your status as an A-Class Hall Reserve Disciple, your future mother-in-law still looks down on you." Xu Fan said curiously. Anyone with some insight could see that this guy had potential.

"My mother-in-law said that I'm a good young man, so the betrothal gift has been reduced from 2,000,000 Spirit Stones to 1 Million Spirit Stones." Wang Yulun said quietly.

"Your mother-in-law is really good to you." Xu Fan said with a headache. One million Spirit Stones, even he would probably have to save for more than ten years.

"That's why I took the risk, wanting to use this as my betrothal gift. My family and I can pool together and try to come up with 500,000 Spirit Stones."

Looking at Wang Yulun's expectant expression, Xu Fan thought of his past self, who had been defeated by a 300,000 gift. For a moment, he felt a sense of pity and sympathy for Wang Yulun.

"After all that, did you manage to get the goods?" Xu Fan asked again.

"I did get the goods, but only half of what I expected."

"But I think it should be enough." Wang Yulun took out a small bottle and said.

At this moment, a trace of eagerness flashed in Xu Fan's eyes. This honey was so good, it should be worth a lot of money. He was running out of Spirit Stones for late-stage Artifact Refining.

"How many Spirit Stones is this worth?" Xu Fan asked.

"Two thousand Spirit Stones per pound, priceless," Murong Qian'er said gently.

Xu Fan's eyes lit up, and he said to the two, "Come on, point out where you got the honey."

Three days later, thanks to high-quality healing pills, Xu Fan had fully recovered. At the moment, he was riding a Cloud Flower Deer through a sea of flowers, and the bamboo forest in front was the lair of Soul Eater Bees.

As they approached the beehive, the Cloud Flower Deer stopped, refusing to go any further no matter what.

"Is that the territory of the Soul Eater Bees ahead? Alright."

Xu Fan patted the Cloud Flower Deer's forehead and said, "Find a place to hide."

The Cloud Flower Deer is a small, auspicious beast with a beautiful appearance. Most importantly, it can bring good luck to its owner. When grown up, it can even summon auspicious clouds. Xu Fan couldn't believe his luck in encountering a Cloud Flower Deer here and was thinking about raising it when he returned.

The Cloud Flower Deer made a 'ying' sound and ran back in the direction it came from.

"Soul Eater Bee honey, here I come."

Using the Light Body Technique, Xu Fan turned into a gust of wind and floated towards the bamboo forest.
