#1055 - Chapter 1055 The Pain of Backlash

“Hey, Master is back. Who's that beside him?”

The sky was already darkening. Ye Hongxue squinted, as if trying to discern the identity of the person beside Ye Kong.

“It's that little girl from the welcoming banquet last time. Seems like her name is… Wen Lin,” Ye Wuxin mused for a moment, then said.

Just as the group was discussing, Ye Kong led Wen Lin over, and the disciples instantly fell silent.

Ye Kong pointed to the empty seat beside Bai Wuchen.

“You sit there.” His voice was indifferent, revealing no emotion.

“Oh!” Wen Lin knew that she had now fallen into the den of Mount Xiaoyao. In order to not expose her purpose, Wen Lin obediently sat in the seat beside Bai Wuchen.

Bai Wuchen had a mischievous smile on his face, his handsome eyes restlessly scanning Wen Lin.

Lin Yaoyao saw Bai Wuchen's shifty-eyed demeanor, his face clearly displaying the word "lecherous." Lin Yaoyao picked up a bone from the table and threw it at Bai Wuchen.

Bai Wuchen's eyes flashed, and he gracefully sidestepped, dodging the bone that still had some meat scraps on it.

“Woof woof ~”

Bai Wuchen's husky leaped up and steadily caught the bone.

“Eldest Senior Sister, I'm not a husky, I don't need you to throw it, hehe,” Bai Wuchen said, smiling at Lin Yaoyao.

“Don't scare the little girl,” Lin Yaoyao reminded him.

“How could I?” To prove that he wasn't scaring her, Bai Wuchen took a pork knuckle from the pile of meat legs on the table and handed it to Wen Lin.

“Here, little sis, gnaw on a big pork knuckle, it's delicious.”

Seeing Bai Wuchen's enthusiasm, Wen Lin could only accept it.

Ye Ling felt a burning gaze, so she raised her head, and her eyes met Wen Lin's.

Wen Lin's eyes were clearly filled with shock, but Ye Ling just smiled faintly, then lowered her head again, slowly eating the grilled meat.

Wen Lin saw with her own eyes that Ye Ling had eaten the grilled meat, and the people around her were also eating heartily. The tempting aroma of grilled meat wafted over, making Wen Lin's mouth water.

Forget it, if it's poison, then let it poison me to death.

Wen Lin closed her eyes and bit off a large piece of meat. Hmm~ The grilled meat seemed to come alive, constantly dancing in her mouth, hitting her taste buds.

Wen Lin didn't expect the grilled meat to be so delicious. There was no technology or harsh ingredients, only satisfaction, simply amazing!

Ye Kong glanced at Wen Lin and found that this little girl had a pretty good appetite. Eating so much, wasn't she afraid of bursting?

In fact, when Ye Kong was grilling the meat, he refined the essence of the meat, preserving the original flavor of the meat to the greatest extent. In this way, even with Xingchen Lan's Foundation Establishment cultivation, eating more grilled meat would only benefit cultivation and not harm it.

Meanwhile, Wen Hou and Wen Yi, who were still searching for Mount Xiaoyao, were not so lucky.

Wen Hou didn't know how he had arrived at the edge of the Bitter Sea. After searching for so long, Wen Hou was a little thirsty, so he fearlessly scooped up a mouthful of water and drank it.

“Ptooey~”

Wen Hou spat out the mouthful of water that hadn't even gone down his throat in disgust. The water had a strange taste.

Unexpectedly, this action disturbed the carp dragon slumbering in the Bitter Sea.

The carp dragon smelled a foreign aura and rushed out of the Bitter Sea, launching an attack directly at Wen Hou. Wen Hou had never seen this scene before, so he directly attacked the carp dragon. They started fighting.

Wen Yi didn't know which part of the mountain he had wandered into, and he happened to run into five lions. Like Wen Hou, Wen Yi attacked first, launching an attack on the five lions.

The five lions were also unlucky enough, either being chased and beaten by Wen Lin, or being chased and beaten by Wen Yi. This time, the five lions didn't run away, and directly confronted Wen Yi head-on. Relying on their familiarity with the mountain terrain, the five lions took the opportunity to jump into the bushes, giving Wen Yi a surprise attack.

In this way, Wen Lin was happily eating grilled meat on the mountain, while her two brothers were suffering on the mountain.

When everyone had eaten almost enough, they were all comfortably preparing to go back and get a good night's sleep.

Bai Wuchen turned around and was about to leave with the husky when Ye Kong stopped him.

“Xiao Bai!”

“Master?” Bai Wuchen turned around, wondering what Ye Kong wanted him for.

“Send her back,” Ye Kong raised his chin, signaling Bai Wuchen to send Wen Lin away.

“Ah~” Bai Wuchen's face was full of resistance, indicating that he just wanted to go back to his thatched hut and lie down. Ye Kong looked serious, with a hint of coercion in his eyes.

“I'll take her with me, she lives in my Zixia Pavilion anyway,” Ye Ling said at this time, and Bai Wuchen gave Ye Ling a grateful look.

“Alright,” Ye Kong didn't say anything, just nodded.

Ye Ling took Wen Lin away from Mount Xiaoyao. Ye Ling could be considered an old acquaintance of Mount Xiaoyao, and she was free to come and go as she pleased. Wen Lin originally wanted to find Wen Hou and Wen Yi, but now that she was with Ye Ling, if Ye Ling knew the purpose of their coming to Mount Xiaoyao, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After thinking about it, Wen Lin still went back to Zixia Pavilion with Ye Ling.

This happy gathering on Mount Xiaoyao also came to an end. Ye Kong arranged a thatched hut for Xingyue Yao, and Xingyue Yao didn't mind and directly moved in.

The disciples returned to their own thatched huts and went to dreamland contentedly. Everyone's body was refining and fusing the essence contained in the grilled meat. Whether it was the spiritual energy in the dantian or the sea of qi, it was slowly increasing, but the people who were fast asleep did not notice it, they just felt that this sleep was particularly comfortable.

The lights on Mount Xiaoyao were all extinguished, leaving only Ye Kong's thatched hut still lit.

Ye Kong was sitting cross-legged on the head of the bed, his eyes slightly closed, his divine sense detecting that Wen Hou and Wen Yi had been severely taught a lesson by the beasts in Mount Xiaoyao, and then fled in panic.

However, at this moment, Ye Kong's dantian trembled, and then his feet became a little weak. Layers upon layers of indescribable pain came from his body, coming from the dantian and sweeping across his entire body.

Ye Kong frowned, wondering what was happening in his body. Could it be overeating?

The pain in his body gave Ye Kong no time to think, and he quickly circulated his true qi. He saw a small vortex slowly forming in Ye Kong's dantian. It was the pain of backlash from the dantian, not only did it not diminish at all, but it became stronger and stronger, so strong that Ye Kong could hardly resist it.

Ye Kong forcibly wanted to suppress the pain of backlash from the dantian. At this time, the blood in his body was surging, and a burst of blood rushed to his chest, and then a large mouthful of blood spurted out.

“Pfft~” Ye Kong's eyes went black, his hands drooped, and he fell weakly to the ground.

This night, the stars in the sky gradually stopped shining, and the entire night sky seemed to be in silent tranquility.

The next day, Lin Yaoyao came to Ye Kong's thatched hut and knocked on the door of the thatched hut.

“Knock knock knock~”

There was no response from inside the thatched hut, and Lin Yaoyao felt something was wrong. Could it be that Master went out early in the morning?

“Master~ Breakfast is ready,” Lin Yaoyao tentatively called out.
