"Master, you've been looking at all the demonic beast cores. Is there something you are looking for?" Zhuding asked.
Mo Xie had been looking left and right between the demonic beast cores.
They had been flying for a few hours by now, and within the next hour, they need to reach
Although they had killed hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts, they only got roughly fifty thousand demonic beast cores. It is a rare occurrence if one out of ten would give one, hence, Mo Xie is looking for something useful.
Mo Xie halts for a bit as he looks at Zhuding; "I'm looking for a core that's suitable for your evolution."
After Mo Xie spoke, he continued with his scanning like he had said nothing at all.
Zhuding nods his head, but just after a while, his eyes suddenly open widely; "Ma-Master?!"
Demon Beasts possess the Demonic Beast core, and Demonic Beast cores are meant to be used as a power amplification for pieces of equipment like weapons and armors, but Demonic Beast cores being used for another beast? That hasn't happened before nor are there any records about that in this plains.
Well, of course, since this kind of things had not happened for so many years that it had already lost through the passage of time.
"Hmm?" Mo Xie opened his eyes in a bewildering manner.
"That..." Zhuding didn't even know how to explain his shock and could only ask; "What kind of thing is that?"
With events continuously unfolding in front of him, Mo Xie's memories and experiences from the past are vividly awaking from Mo Xie's body, that supreme demonic figure of the past, his awake is slowly arriving.
Hearing Zhuding's words, Mo Xie couldn't help but chuckles; 'So this type of amplification has already been lost through the passage of time...'
Without anything in mind, Mo Xie explained it so that even a 5-year-old child can understand; "It is something to make you stronger."
"Ohhh..." Zhuding's mouth opens widely, his face containing confusion, but with slow realization, his eyes started to sparkle; "Master, I will definitely serve you until the end of my life!"
For a snake like Zhuding who's only future was to be a sovereign of a little mountain, joining Mo Xie and making him his master was the best fortune he encountered, becoming a dragon and fighting other stronger opponents and killing them, that's a demonic beast's romance, well... also making descendants.
But Zhuding remembers something and couldn't help but ask; "Master, when will you be breaking through to silver-rank? You've been helping others grow stronger, but why are you sticking to that lowly cultivation? Is there some sort of secrets behind it?"
If Zhuding wasn't his own subordinate, Mo Xie would definitely find it eerie for a demonic beast to ask something like that, but Zhuding has been with him for a long time, hence, he knew the latter has no ill-intent; "Well, If there is only a way for me to break this curse, I would've definitely done so."
Zhuding now understands, his master is suffering from a curse!
Mo Xie seemingly saw Zhuding's misunderstanding and couldn't help but chuckle; "Why is our speed so slow? It is like a tortoise' speed climbing a tree!"
"I will increase my speed now, master!"
Zhuding replies as he increases his phase once more.
After a few thousands of breaths more, Mo Xie looks ahead and could already see the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom.
"Haa, we're finally here." Zhuding utters from his gritted teeth, he had exhausted all of his Spiritual Energy to rush his way here after all.
Mo Xie couldn't help but chuckles as he spoke: "Here, open your mouth."
As Mo Xie finished speaking, Zhuding immediately opens his mouth, the former then threw something ahead, and as Zhuding was thriving forward, that thing flew directly inside his huge tongue.
Mo Xie then continued; "You should focus on continuously getting the Spiritual Energy from it."
Zhuding nods his head, and as he did as he was instructed, Zhuding's eyes couldn't help but slowly opens in astonishment; "Master, what is this?"
Although minuscule, Zhuding's spiritual Energy slowly starts to recover until it was immediately cut off, the taste suddenly assaulted Zhuding's delicate tastebuds as he spits the thing out.
Mo Xie chuckles; "A rock."
Zhuding opened his mouth widely but no words were spoken.
Mo Xie continued; "Well, I continuously injected my Spiritual Energy within it, in the end, it turned into a low-quality Spiritual Stone."
Zhuding couldn't help but be a shock, but after a while, shook his head and sigh; 'Until when, how many secrets and awe-inspiring techniques will master show in the future.'
Thinking like that, Zhuding couldn't help but show a great excitement inside his head; 'I definitely made a great decision that time.'
After a while, the two of them arrives at the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom, a guard was about to stop them, but another one stopped him as he whispers; "Are you an idiot, that's our Kingdom's esteemed guest!"
Hearing his senior's reprimanding, the young guard shudders and took a few steps back.
Mo Xie descends from the sky together with Zhuding and landed immediately.
Mo Xie saw a few groups there readily welcoming him and saw two familiar figures and couldn't help but chuckle: "I didn't think you two will heal immediately, such a blessing indeed. I guess my pills work really well huh?"
Mo Xie saw Huotian and Shenyu both emitting Spiritual Energies, to Mo Xie, it only means one thing, these two had a really wonderful 'experience'.
Still, remembering he's the supreme monarch if it is based solely with purity, he couldn't help but feel disdain; "Hmmp, two people enjoying themselves so much, hoo, what a wonderful thing indeed, wonderful, wonderful."
His words caused both Shenyu and Huotian to blush, still, Huotian smiled as he pats Mo Xie's shoulders; "And who's fault do you think it is that we had to be caught by your 'trap'?! Huh? You should really explain yourself!"
Huotian acted like he is angry, but after what had just happened with him and Shenyu, he felt like a new person, it felt like he's been reborn, his view of the World has actually changed especially when he uncovered Shenyu's true identity.
Mo Xie couldn't help but chuckle as he moves together with Huotian towards the grand hall of the castle.
When the duo passed by Shenyu, Huotian grabs the latter's hand and brought her along.
The people together with them warmly had a conversation with Mo Xie, by now, Mo Xie's title as the 'Medical Saint's apprentice' had been thoroughly spread far and wide.
Now, instead of the Elder's and Minister's disdain, all of their eyes contain reverence and admiration towards Mo Xie, his status isn't even losing out to Si Baili, the ruler of the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom himself!
Just revealing that Mo Xie is a medical saint's apprentice, he already has the status almost the same as a clan's elder of a top clan from the Soaring Blaze Phoenix Empire! What would his status be when he actually becomes a Medical Saint himself!?
It hasn't been a week, yet, the news has already reached so many experts.
When all of them made it back to the Grand Hall, the elders and clan leaders talking to Mo Xie immediately moves away and made their way towards their perspective seats.
Si Baili looking at Mo Xie from head to toe looking for any type of injuries sighs a breath of relief noticing nothing had gone wrong.
Si Baili nods satisfied and spoke: "It is good that you came back unscathed, had you gained anything from your travels with my daughter?"
Si Baili's daughter is none other than Si Shenyue, the one that led the rescue operation.
Mo Xie chuckles: "Truth be told, I was so scared and made a detour and returned to the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom."
Hearing his words, everyone chuckles, but also a hint of disdain can be seen from a few of them, clearly, a coward isn't taken highly here. But a few understood immediately, as a Medical Saint's apprentice, one doesn't really need fighting powers, they only need to be good with medicines.
And at the end of the day, what can a peak bronze ranked cultivator can do?
Hence, all of them nods with an understanding manner in the end.
Si Baili nods his head; "No matter, all that matters is you are safe."
Mo Xie chuckles and spoke: "I've been through a lot for a while now and wishes to rest for now."
"Then, let Shenyu and Huotian guide you to a room." Si Baili laughs as he waves his hand.
After speaking, Mo Xie was led away by Si Shenyu and Huotian to a vacant room.
The two made a few jokes before separating.
After closing the door and laying on the bed, Mo Xie's eyes glint fiercely as he slowly opens his mouth uttering a few words; "If my kindness doesn't appease your greed, then my wrath will be your demise."
After saying those words, Mo Xie's eyes grew fiercing, looking at the far south, where his first Mo Family's location had been established; "Your lives are at my hands, baring your fangs at me are merely you shortening your peace."
Okay, so for now, I don't really know what to do without a job. Pray for me brothers and sisters, haaa...
