#1017 - Chapter 1017 Secret
After Ye Kong saw off the Imperial Spirit Guard, he went to the dining hall, where the others hadn't left yet.
Ye Kong took the opportunity, while everyone was still there, to tell them what the Imperial Spirit Guard had said.
"The Zixia Pavilion will hold a farewell banquet tomorrow at You time (5-7 PM), so we will depart tomorrow at Shen time (3-5 PM)."
The others nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
After leaving the dining hall, Ye Kong returned to his thatched hut.
Once back in the thatched hut, Ye Kong opened the redwood box, inside of which lay a light blue sachet and a dagger.
Ye Kong picked up the sachet and examined it closely.
The sachet was embroidered with images of idle clouds and wild cranes, appearing as carefree and unfettered as Ye Kong himself.
A delicate fragrance emanated from the sachet, lingering around Ye Kong's nose, not as strong as a rose, nor as faint as a daisy, yet it made one feel comfortable and content.
"It smells quite nice," Ye Kong thought, and immediately hung it on his belt.
Then, Ye Kong picked up the dagger from the redwood box.
Ye Kong unsheathed the dagger, and its blade flashed.
Ye Kong knew that the weapons Ye Ling gave him were generally extraordinary, and the cold glint of this dagger alone was unlike any other.
Ye Kong also directly stored the dagger into his storage ring.
After finishing his meal, Xing Chenlan returned to his own thatched hut.
Xing Chenlan sat down cross-legged, inhaling and exhaling, to further solidify the Profound Light Shield within his body.
Meanwhile, inside the box on the table in the room, the Phoenix Blood Stone was emitting a dazzling red light.
The Phoenix Blood Stone produced a slight tremor, which Xing Chenlan noticed, and he stopped his practice.
With a wave of his small hand, the box containing the Phoenix Blood Stone flew directly into Xing Chenlan's hand.
Xing Chenlan circulated his energy, forming a small spiritual vortex in his dantian, wanting to absorb the power of the Spirit Radiance Star Stone and the Phoenix Blood Stone to strengthen himself.
Two different forces flowed slowly into his Qi Sea along Xing Chenlan's palms.
Xing Chenlan's whole body emitted a faint golden light, and the two forces within him intertwined.
Xing Chenlan cast a spell, allowing his own true Qi to promote the fusion of the Taiyin power and the Xihe power.
However, the two profound forces always seemed like the black and white of a Bagua diagram, constantly swirling in Xing Chenlan's Qi Sea, unable to merge.
The two profound forces grew larger and larger, and Xing Chenlan felt an anomaly, his brow furrowing.
Xing Chenlan wanted to suppress the power of the two profound forces within his body.
However, with Xing Chenlan's Foundation Establishment cultivation, he could not suppress even one profound force, let alone two.
Xing Chenlan underestimated the power of the two profound forces and wanted to stop absorbing the power of the Phoenix Blood Stone and the Spirit Radiance Star Stone. The Spirit Radiance Star Stone fell to the ground, while the Phoenix Blood Stone backfired on Xing Chenlan, and the Xihe profound force entered his body uncontrollably.
Xing Chenlan resisted continuously, but still to no avail.
The Xihe profound force, like an unstoppable mountain torrent, surged directly into Xing Chenlan's body.
Xing Chenlan could not resist and was completely backfired upon. At this moment, the Profound Light Shield in Xing Chenlan's body protected Xing Chenlan's heart, but did not protect Xing Chenlan's mind. Xing Chenlan's blue pupils gradually changed.
"Ah, ah, ah ~"
The Xihe profound force erupted, and Xing Chenlan's upper garment burned to ashes, and a gust of hot wind swept through, scattering the ashes. Xing Chenlan's roar was like a muffled thunder rolling across the sky, directly striking the heart.
Ye Kong, who was in his room, paused for a second after hearing the sound, and then, as if realizing something, leaped up and transformed into a stream of light, flying towards Xing Chenlan's room.
The other disciples also heard Xing Chenlan's voice and rushed to Xing Chenlan's thatched hut.
Ye Kong was one step ahead, arriving at the outside of Xing Chenlan's thatched hut. Just standing outside the door, Ye Kong felt a powerful heat wave. Xing Chenlan inside the house had already been backfired upon and had temporarily lost consciousness.
Ye Kong directly opened Xing Chenlan's door with a palm strike.
"Bang!"
The sound of the door opening attracted Xing Chenlan's attention.
"Whoosh!"
Xing Chenlan leaped up directly, throwing a punch towards Ye Kong, the Xihe profound force flowing from the gaps between his fingers, enveloping Xing Chenlan's entire fist.
The fist carried wind and rustled.
As soon as he entered the door, Xing Chenlan gave Ye Kong a punch. Ye Kong dodged Xing Chenlan's fist with a sideways movement.
Ye Kong took the opportunity to firmly grab Xing Chenlan's wrist with one hand.
"Little…"
Before Ye Kong could finish his words, Xing Chenlan turned his head and glared at Ye Kong angrily, and then immediately threw another punch.
Ye Kong released the hand holding Xing Chenlan's wrist and dodged Xing Chenlan's second punch.
After Xing Chenlan broke free, he punched out again and again, each punch more ruthless than the last, slamming towards Ye Kong, Xing Chenlan's fist was as hard as steel, wrapped in gusts of wind, whistling out.
Ye Kong flashed instantly, and Xing Chenlan's punch slammed violently into the wall, penetrating the thatched hut, and Xing Chenlan's hand was briefly stuck by the wall.
What's going on!
Ye Kong had just clearly seen the intense flames burning in Xing Chenlan's blue eyes.
Ye Kong took advantage of the opportunity when Xing Chenlan's hand was stuck and went straight forward.
Xing Chenlan had already pulled out his arm at this time, and as soon as he turned around, Ye Kong attacked.
"Heaven and Earth are too clear, suppress the heart and extinguish the fire!"
Ye Kong cast a spell, making a hand seal, and directly pointed a finger on Xing Chenlan's forehead.
Ye Kong's own true Qi quickly poured into Xing Chenlan's Qi Sea through a point on Xing Chenlan's forehead.
After a while, the strong aura around Xing Chenlan dissipated, and the two profound forces in his body were also suppressed and rested.
Xing Chenlan closed his eyes and fainted.
After Ye Kong cast a spell and placed Xing Chenlan on the bed, he checked Xing Chenlan's condition.
When the others came to Xing Chenlan's room, they saw that Ye Kong was already standing beside Xing Chenlan's bed, and Xing Chenlan was lying on the bed unconscious.
Ye Kong was checking Xing Chenlan's condition at this time.
Lin Yaoyao noticed the Phoenix Blood Stone and Spirit Radiance Star Stone that had fallen on the ground. Lin Yaoyao bent down and picked up the two strange stones.
Lin Yaoyao knew about the Phoenix Blood Stone, but had never seen the Spirit Radiance Star Stone.
After Ye Kong healed Xing Chenlan for a moment, he withdrew his hand.
Upon seeing this, the others immediately asked Ye Kong about the situation.
"Master, what's wrong with Xiaolan?"
"Master, I heard Little Brother's voice on Peach Mountain. Is Little Brother okay?"
"Master, did assassins from the Xiaoyao Peak attack Little Brother?"
The disciples' questions were noisy, annoying Ye Kong.
"Stop!"
"You don't have to worry about your little brother. I'm here, okay? You should all go do what you need to do."
Ye Kong dismissed everyone.
The others also knew that Ye Kong wanted to heal Xing Chenlan alone, and they all left Xing Chenlan's room one by one.
Ye Kong frowned when he saw that Lin Yaoyao hadn't left yet.
Lin Yaoyao noticed the change in Ye Kong's expression and immediately handed the Phoenix Blood Stone and Spirit Radiance Star Stone in her hand to Ye Kong.
