In the depths of the forest, there was a handsome young man lying on a huge rock beside a stream.
Not far away, there were two young ladies. One of them was dressed in white, looking as beautiful as an elf. Her white clothes fluttered about, making her look like a fairy.
"Miss, why did you save him? Why did you give him a second-stage top-grade pill?" A woman in green pointed at the figure on the rock and slightly glared at her. She seemed a little upset.
An upper-grade pill of the second rank would cause even Zifu Disciples to go crazy over it. Naturally, the azure-robed woman was unhappy that the white-robed woman had just fed it to a stranger.
The handsome youth on the rock was no other than Jiang Feng. He didn't know how much time had passed before he fainted. He hadn't woken up yet.
The woman in white wet her handkerchief in the water and washed Jiang Feng's wounds. She smiled faintly, "Since I've met him, how can I not care? Xiaolan, help me help him up."
"I want to help you, I don't want to help him," Xiaolan said angrily. But when she saw the eyes of the woman in white, she was instantly discouraged and had no choice but to help Jiang Feng up.
Damn it, the unconscious Jiang Feng lowered his head and almost stuck to the woman in white. Xiaolan hurriedly patted his head backward and leaned weakly against her, which made her so angry that she wished she could throw him into the stream.
Xiaolan's angry expression made the white-clothed woman reveal a smile. Her extremely beautiful smile was extremely beautiful.
"Hmph, it's all because of you!" Xiaolan snorted.
"Yes, it's all for me." The woman in white smiled. She cleaned Jiang Feng's wound and applied medicine on it before putting him down.
Under the care of the woman in white, Jiang Feng's face regained some color, but he was still unconscious and didn't wake up.
"I wonder who this kid is. He's so lucky to have the number one beauty in Qing Yan City personally treat him." Xiao Lan took a deep look at Jiang Feng and asked curiously.
The woman in white didn't take it seriously. She just said indifferently, "You can't ignore it if you see it."
"Yes, Miss. You're right."
Xiao Lan dragged out her voice, shook her head, and sighed. "However, if the Qingyu Sect's elders, Chen Chen and Yan Ge of the Yan Sect were to find out, no matter who this brat is, I'm afraid that he will die."
Yan Ge was the son of Yan Ba and the number one disciple of the Yan Sect. He was the leader of the younger generation of the Yan Sect. As for Yan Chen, he was the son of the vice head of the Qingyu Sect, Xiang Yuan. He was the second disciple of the sect.
The first disciple of the Qingyu Sect was none other than the woman in white, Chu Yiyi. However, the disciples of the Qingyu Sect all knew that Chu Yiyi was being pursued by the disciples of the Qingyu Sect. Therefore, they would not challenge her position. However, his strength was not weaker than Chu Yiyi's.
Therefore, Yan Ge and Yan Chen represented the strongest among the young generation in Qingyan City. Both of them had feelings for Chu Yiyi, which was why Xiaolan said so.
However, Chu Yiyi never paid attention to them.
"This is the depths of the Death Forest. The new disciples of the Qingyu Sect and the Yan Sect are training here. This person is likely here to participate in the test. Miss, do you think he is from the Qingyu Sect or the Yan Sect?" Xiao Lan asked.
"It doesn't matter," said Chu Yiyi calmly.
"How can it not matter? If it was someone from the Yan Sect, that person would be an enemy. If you were to rescue the enemy, I'm afraid that you would be punished by the Qingyu Sect." Little Lan said.
"There are no outsiders here anyway. If you don't tell me, who knows?" Chu Yiyi chuckled.
Xiao Lan was a little absent-minded and said, "Miss, you don't like to smile usually. Why are you smiling so much today?"
"Isn't there an outsider?" Chu Yiyi's smile was bright.
"What about him?" Xiaolan pointed at Jiang Feng.
Chu Yiyi said, "Isn't he in a coma?"
"Cough, cough!"
At this moment, Jiang Feng coughed lightly, causing Chu Yiyi's face to turn red, as if she'd done something bad that had been discovered.
However, she quickly calmed down and hurriedly checked Jiang Feng's injuries. The latter opened his blank eyes with difficulty and said in a daze, "Water."
"Xiaolan," shouted Chu Yiyi. Xiaolan hurriedly handed over the prepared water.
Jiang Feng's eyes gradually regained color after drinking some water. Only then did he notice that there was a delicate and beautiful woman in front of him.
She was dressed in white and looked delicate and pretty. What a beautiful fairy!
It wasn't that Jiang Feng had never seen a beauty before. Mu Rongxue was also extremely beautiful, but compared to the woman in front of him, she paled in comparison. At this moment, Jiang Feng was a bit dazed.
Under Jiang Feng's gaze, Chu Yiyi's jade-like face flushed red and she could not help but take a few steps back.
"Hey, have you seen enough?" Xiaolan shouted.
Only then did Jiang Feng react and suddenly sat up. In an instant, a wave of intense pain spread throughout his entire body, causing him to let out a muffled groan.
He carefully examined his body. Other than being a little weak, there wasn't much of a problem. He had even broken through to the tenth level of the Body Tempering stage.
Killing Yan Yi, fighting against Hei Yu, escaping in desperation, activating all of his potential. This was perhaps something that would be done after he broke through.
"It's a blessing in disguise." Jiang Feng shook his head with a smile. Breaking through to the tenth level of the Body Tempering stage was not a small gain. However, what he didn't know was that the reason why he was able to break through wasn't because he had broken through to the next level. There was also Chu Yiyi's pill. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to wake up so quickly, much less break through.
Jiang Feng lowered his head and looked at the medicine on the wound. His heart instantly became clear. He raised his head and said, "Many thanks for saving me."
"It's no big deal. You don't have to thank me," said Chu Yiyi calmly. There was no longer a brilliant smile on her face. She was as cold as ice as she kept people away from her.
Jiang Feng wanted to get up and leave, but discovered that he was extremely weak. Not only did he lack strength, but even his spirit energy was almost dried up.
"Your injuries are very serious and the anima energy in your body is almost exhausted. Therefore, it's best if you don't move," said Chu Yiyi.
Jiang Feng had a bitter expression on his face. Although the old devil's methods had saved his life, they had completely hollowed him out. However, he didn't have the time to recover. If he counted the time, there should be a day left before the trial would be over.
The most important thing was that he had killed the Young Master of the Yan Sect. The people of the Yan Sect would probably catch up soon.
"Staying here will bring you danger." Jiang Feng gritted his teeth and stood up. Such a simple action had exhausted all of his strength and made him sweat profusely.
"This is the depths of the Death Forest. Even high level Zifu Disciples wouldn't dare to rashly enter. Thus, you don't have to worry," Chu Yiyi said.
Above the Body Tempering stage, each realm was divided into nine levels. The first three levels could be called the early level, the middle three levels could be called the middle level, and the last three levels could be called the high level. High level Violet Manors corresponded to the seventh level of the Violet Manor to the ninth level of the Violet Manor.
Jiang Feng was shocked. If that was the case, how would the two women dare enter so deeply?
"I need some medicinal ingredients and have no choice but to go deeper. Furthermore, I have a way of avoiding demon beasts." Chu Yiyi explained as if she had seen through Jiang Feng's doubts.
Jiang Feng nodded and didn't insist any longer. He sat down and panted heavily.
As Chu Yiyi walked away, Xiaolan came over and asked, "Hey, what's your name?"
"Jiang Feng."
"Are you a disciple of the examination?"
"Yes."
"Yan Sect or the Teal Feather Sect?"
"Azure Feather Sect."
The two of them chatted very quickly.
When she heard Jiang Feng's reply, Xiaolan smiled and said, "Just in time, we're also disciples of the Qingyu Sect. Miss previously spent a rank two upper rank pill to save you. Remember to return it in the future."
"Xiaolan." Chu Yiyi shouted before Xiaolan shut up.
Jiang Feng's eyes flashed. No wonder he'd woken up so quickly. Not only had he been drugged, he'd also taken a rank two upper rank pill.
"Don't listen to Xiaolan's nonsense. Have a good rest." Chu Yiyi smiled faintly at Jiang Feng.
"Thank you."
Jiang Feng thanked him sincerely. He remembered this feeling in his heart.
He was not good at words, but he would keep everything in mind. Then, he sat down cross-legged and began to absorb the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth to recover his strength.
At this moment, Jiang Feng's dantian was like a dried up ocean. He didn't have the slightest bit of strength. He frantically absorbed the world's spirit energy, as if he was swallowing a whale. His dantian, which had been dried up, began to tremble as if it had been dry for a long time.
As more and more Spiritual Qi was absorbed into his body, his face returned to normal, and his breath became steady.
At the same time, his momentum was also rising, which was very sharp.
"Hmph, it's really too easy on him. A single pill actually allowed him to break through a level." Xiao Lan pouted her mouth and said.
Chu Yiyi appeared indifferent. Her pill was not a pill to break through to a new realm. Jiang Feng's ability to break through to a new realm was his destiny.
Jiang Feng sat there for an entire day and night. By the time he opened his eyes, it was already the next evening.
"Why is it so hot?" Jiang Feng frowned slightly.
The night was coming, and he was sitting next to the stream. It should be very cool, but why was it hotter than day?
"Have you recovered?" asked Chu Yiyi.
Jiang Feng cast a sidelong glance and nodded with a smile. "It's about time."
Chu Yiyi said, "This is the depths of the Death Forest. Not only are there many demonic beasts, but the weather is also very strange. It's not surprising that it's so hot."
"I should go. Today should be the last day of the trial by fire." Jiang Feng raised his head and looked at the sky.
"Greetings to the Qingyu Sect." Chu Yiyi nodded.
"Okay."
Jiang Feng smiled faintly, leapt off the rocks, and walked out.
"Alright, my young mistress. She's already recovered and gone far away. Shouldn't we do our own things?" Xiaolan leaned her head in the direction of Jiang Feng's departure.
In order to cure Jiang Feng and wait for him to completely recover, Chu Yiyi had delayed him for two days, but he didn't say anything.
"Let's go." Chu Yiyi chuckled and turned to go deeper.
Xiaolan hurriedly followed behind her and looked at Chu Yiyi with a smile. "Miss, what do you think of Jiang Feng?"
"What do you mean?" asked Chu Yiyi.
"You have never smiled so much at Yan Ge and Yan Chen, but you have laughed at him so many times in a day," Xiao Lan said with a smile.
"Is it strange?" Chu Yiyi did not take it seriously.
"Moreover, you even applied medicine for him and became intimate with him." Xiao Lan continued with a smile.
Chu Yiyi's face instantly flushed red. She could not help but roll her eyes at Xiaolan.
Xiaolan didn't care at all. She smiled meaningfully and asked, "Miss, is he very handsome?"
Jiang Feng's face surfaced in Chu Yiyi's mind and she almost blurted out, "It seems... pretty good."
"Miss, have you taken a fancy to him?" Xiaolan's smile grew even wider.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Chu Yiyi's face flushed even redder. Fortunately, there was the cover of the night, so Xiaolan did not notice it. She quickly walked forward, as if she was trying to avoid Xiaolan.
Hehe.
Xiaolan grinned and hurriedly followed him.
