Translator: 549690339
Xia Ji brought the children down the mountain.
He kept an eye on the children.
However, the half-dragon did not reveal any flaws.
The children followed him with difficulty and soon showed signs of fatigue. However, they had all experienced hardship and had better endurance than their peers.
Some girls bit their lips and cried non-stop, but they did not make a sound. Instead, they tried their best to keep up with the group.
Some boys ‘feet were already bleeding, but they endured the pain and continued walking.
To be able to survive being tormented by the flood dragon spirit and be picked by Xia Ji, these children were obviously the type with better blood and Qi talent. Moreover, they didn’t want to fall behind. After all, meeting someone like Xia Ji was a chance to change their fate.
“Ouch.”
A girl cried out in pain. She sprained her ankle and fell to the ground. Then, she supported herself with both hands and tried to get up with difficulty, but she could not.
She tried her best to sit up straight. When she looked at her ankle, she saw that there was already a big bruise. Then, she looked into the distance and saw that the other children were still walking forward.
Her eyes were red and she was very sad.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of her.
Xia Ji reached out and touched the girl’s glabella, sensing it carefully.
However, there were no signs of a half-dragon.
A half-dragon that could be worshipped by incense for a thousand years would be impossible to find if it wanted to hide.
Xia Ji was curious. Didn’t the half-dragon have a plan?
Don’t want to leave?
Why was he so willing to follow him?
If the half-dragon wanted to leave, it didn’t need to hide among these children. It just needed to fly away. Neither he nor Bo Qi could stop it.
Why was it hiding here?
How could he lure it out?
This was a problem.
The girl’s face was dirty and there was a fishy smell on her body.
While Xia Ji was thinking, she was looking at the young immortal standing in front of her with wide eyes.
The immortal was stroking her forehead.
The girl was panicking. She did not know how to deal with it.
Her body was very smelly. Would the smell affect the immortals?
Her body was trembling violently, and her heart was filled with fear. She suddenly knelt down and placed her hands on the ground, wanting to kowtow. She didn’t know what else she could do other than kneel and kowtow.
However, she was unable to do so. A gentle breeze lifted her up.
Xia Ji looked at the swelling on her ankle and pointed with two fingers. The technique of removing blood clots and flowing blood was easy for him.
The girl only felt a cold surge into her ankle, and the soreness and swelling slowly melted in that cold.
She looked at the immortal in front of her. The immortal said to her, “You don’t have to kneel in the future.”
The girl replied,”Yes…”
Xia Ji didn’t ask for her name and left. The girl felt a sudden warmth in her heart. She looked at his back with watery eyes and quickened her pace to catch up.
Along the way, many children fell or fainted. Xia Ji stopped to check on them, but he did not find any traces of the dragon. As for the children’s injuries, he healed them on the way.
This unintentional action made the children follow even faster.
On the mountainside.
An Xun was drawing talismans in the pavilion while Zhao Xuan was waiting patiently.
He saw a graceful figure floating down the mountain, carrying a pair of black and white sabers. He was flying through the air, and some dirty children followed behind him.
“I am Zhao Xuan, the attendant of the City Lord of Juye City. Greetings, Immortal Elder.” My City Lord…”
Xia Ji only glanced at him once, and Zhao Xuan couldn’t continue. He felt that he had been seen through. Whether it was what he wanted to say or what he was thinking, he could no longer hide anything from Xia Ji’s eyes.
“A hermit in the mountains, not interested in fame and fortune.”
Xia Ji waved at the pavilion and continued down the mountain.
An Xun thought that her teacher wanted to talk to this messenger, but she didn’t expect her teacher to leave after saying only eight words. She hurriedly picked up the talisman and packed it up. Then, she stuffed it into her arms and shouted, ” Teacher, teacher! ” from afar before running after him.
Zhao Xuan stayed where he was and moved a few times, but he didn’t dare to chase after him. He could only smile bitterly and report to the City Lord first.
Night had arrived.
The starry sky carried the moonlight, and the sky of the valley seemed particularly quiet.
The bonfires lit up the surrounding figures.
Xia Ji sat cross-legged on a large black rock, looking into the distance.
The moon is shrouded in cold gauze, like smoke and clouds.
The red fire was dispersed by the night mist, and fireflies flew all over the sky.
It was a peaceful and warm color.
He felt as if the world was a chess piece.
And this chess piece of his was a variable in the game.
Walking alone in the calm of the surging waves, walking in the darkness where no one sees,
Even if they met someone who was also alone, they would separate after meeting.
His current strength should be the strongest among all the individuals he had met. Moreover, he still had the eleventh level Dharmakaya that he had hidden. He also had the powerful talent of ” retrieving skill beads by flipping the book ” and a completely different dual identity.
However, even if he became the strongest, it did not mean that he was invincible.
Everything in the universe was mutually reinforcing and countering each other. In this infinite universe, what was truly invincible?
Maybe there was.
As long as you were willing to hypnotize yourself and write the word “Dao” on an apple, you could tell yourself that you were invincible after eating the apple. After all, you could eat a Dao every day.
However, imagination was just imagination. Xia Ji wished that he could live in his imagination, but everything he saw and experienced told him that everything in this world was real..
