Lord Bear looked at the baozi in front of him with a face full of despair.
"Zhang, I really can’t eat anymore. Are you sure this can heal me? I feel like I’m not going to make it..."
Zhang Xiaoman gave him an encouraging look.
"Lord Bear, this is the last one, trust me, if you can finish it, your wounds will definitely heal!"
"Yeah, yeah! Lord Bear, you have to believe in Brother Man! Brother Man is a true Transcendent!"
Yang Yangyang chimed in from the side:
"And right now, besides him, we don’t have any other options. You must hang in there, Lord Bear!"
Lord Bear weakly nodded, and then, trembling, opened his mouth and bit into the large meat baozi that Yang Yangyang handed over, chewing and swallowing it with difficulty.
His physical condition was worsening, and managing to eat these six baozi was already a miracle.
This was all thanks to Lord Bear’s will and physical strength that exceeded ordinary people’s. If it had been an average person, they would have likely fainted long ago due to excessive blood loss.
Lord Bear took a sip of water and swallowed the baozi in his mouth with difficulty.
This water was scooped up by Yang Yangyang from a nearby spring, and surprisingly, it was all drinkable freshwater.
After Lord Bear ate the last baozi, Yang Yangyang kept a close watch on him, eager to see if a miracle would really happen.
What happened next did not disappoint everyone.
The wounds on Lord Bear’s body suddenly began to move, and then healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His spirit also returned, and his previously bloodless face regained its rosiness, as if time had reversed on his body.
At this moment, Yang Yangyang was too excited to speak.
He carefully inspected the faint scars left on Lord Bear’s wounds and then looked at Zhang Xiaoman with a fervent gaze.
"Brother Man, you are really amazing! How did you do it? Was there a spiritual elixir in that baozi just now?"
At this time, Lord Bear also suddenly stood up from the ground, jumping a few times, and discovered that he had returned to his original condition, his face unavoidably showing a shocked expression.
"I’m, I’m really healed? This is simply unbelievable! Zhang, is this Magic? Are you an Eastern Mage? Can I learn magic from you?"
Zhang Xiaoman simply smiled and shook his head, without explaining much.
"I can’t go into details about these things for now. Our priority is to find Xun You and Ji Xiaoqi to prevent them from encountering any dangers."
Upon hearing this, both of them paused for a moment, and then their faces showed worried expressions.
After all, their time spent together was longer, and their affections ran deeper.
Initially, they were captivated by the extraordinary means Zhang Xiaoman displayed. Now that they had come back to their senses, they were all anxious.
Just then, rustling and shuffling sounds suddenly emerged from the darkness at the other end of the hall.
Zhang Xiaoman immediately turned to look, his attention highly focused.
Two Star Guards by his side also assumed fighting stances at the same time.
Soon after, a light suddenly lit up, followed by a joyful voice.
"Sweater! Lord Bear! It’s you!!"
The person speaking was none other than Ji Xiaoqi, whom Zhang Xiaoman and the others had planned to search for.
Xun You was also by her side, and it wasn’t until they approached that they could clearly see the scene, and both were filled with surprise and confusion.
"Brother Man!? You’ve returned!! And Lord Bear! How did your injuries heal? Ah, right, who are these two...?"
Xun You, upon seeing the few people in the hall, immediately let out a cry of astonishment.
Instantly, Yang Yangyang couldn’t wait to explain what had just happened to them.
He described in detail how Zhang Xiaoman used Sword Control to slay the Wolf Demon and healed Lord Bear with extraordinary means, leaving the two completely flabbergasted.
Both parties then exchanged information; it turned out that after Xun You and Ji Xiaoqi got separated from Yang Yangyang, they found a cave to hide in order to avoid any possible monsters.
They didn’t expect that beneath this cave was actually a spacious hall; they followed the hall and then discovered the three others who were also resting in this space.
"It seems we are now in a very large space, judging by the structure, this place was originally built on what seems like an underground level, it’s just not clear what its purpose was..."
Yang Yangyang nodded his head, analyzing the situation, then turned his gaze towards Zhang Xiaoman.
The rest of the group followed suit, silently looking over, as if they were all waiting for him to unveil the mystery.
Zhang Xiaoman was also quietly assessing the area.
It must be said, this place was much better than the outside.
There was light and a water source; not only could it provide shelter from the wind and the rain, but the environment and decor were also nice—it could be considered for setting up a temporary base for themselves here.
However, while he was pondering, it seemed as though the voices of the people around him had suddenly stopped.
He came back to his senses and looked around, noticing that everyone was looking at him with a hopeful gaze, and then he belatedly realized what they were implying.
But the issue is, how would I know what this place is for!
Zhang Xiaoman felt frustrated inside.
Although this area might indeed have been created by the System based on those things he had said.
But personal matters are for one to know; he had just said those things off the top of his head, and as for this island, it was also his first visit—how would he know the origins of this hall!
As much as he grumbled internally, his experience in bluffing over the years had forged a good mental fortitude, and this situation was much easier compared to when he had created something out of nothing and hoodwinked Xiao Shun and the others.
Zhang Xiaoman immediately entered the role, his expression grew solemn, and he exuded an air of unfathomable depth.
"The truth is, I did not wish to speak much about these matters with you, but now that we have all arrived here, and you have already encountered those monsters... trying to hide, I fear, is no longer an option..."
He looked helpless and shook his head,
"So be it, today I will reveal to you the truth of the matter, you need to understand the situation we’re in..."
"Actually, the place we are currently in is the Inheritance Land of the Three Great Sanctuaries..."
All present showed looks of longing and anticipation upon hearing his words.
"Three Great Sanctuaries," "Inheritance Land"—these terms sounded quite impressive.
Seeing their reactions, Zhang Xiaoman knew they undoubtedly believed his words.
He then swept his gaze around, and on seeing an object not far away, his eyes paused for a moment before he walked over to it.
