Chen Yi returned to the cabin and sat on the bed with closed eyes to rest his mind.
He wasn’t cultivating, nor was he thinking about the past or future; he was rely emptying his heart and mind, sitting there with a calm expression.
This cabin, built from round logs, wasn’t spacious, only about two square ters. It wasn’t too shabby, as it was constructed from freshly cleared timber, still carrying the natural fragrance of the woods.
Faintly, one by one talismanic seals illuminated and appeared on it, casting a shimring light on Chen Yi, shifting between brightness and shadow.
Reflecting on it, he realized he hadn’t rested, or rather slept, for a long ti.
How long had it been?
Probably since he started his journey away from the Grand Void Sect, either he was hurrying along or cultivating, or in combat.
Without a mont’s pause.
Days like these had persisted for nearly a year.
Until today, he finally ca from the Tianyuan Continent to this battlefield, crossing the Netherworld River and standing at the foot of Taizhou Mountain.
Soon, he would climb that majestic peak, whose end couldn’t be seen at a glance.
Therefore, Chen Yi rarely let his heart relax and took a montary rest.
The Jade Sword on his wrist seed to sense his state and gently swayed twice without making any sound, silently detaching from his body, swirling and circling within the cabin.
Like entertaining itself, silently cheering.
"Ooo... doo doo doo... da da da..."
The Little Jade Sword, akin to a fairy, gracefully expanded and transford its form, as if dancing.
However, as it danced, it was also secretly mumbling.
"When does Brother Yi plan to give a new body, that jerk Spring Rain is even starting to gain intelligence."
"Hmph, but even if it gains intelligence, it still has to obey my orders, or I’ll, I’ll chop it."
Saying so, the Little Jade Sword flew to the Spring Rain Sword placed between Chen Yi’s knees, gently poking it with its tip, causing a soft clanging sound.
The Spring Rain Sword remained motionless as if it felt nothing.
Chen Yi also paid it no mind, keeping his eyes closed, emptying his heart and mind, seeking to restore his body and spirit to optimal condition.
anwhile, the sleeping Xiao Qing on his wrist was awakened by the sound, blinked its grain-sized eyes, looked at the Jade Sword beside it, then at Chen Yi, and proceeded to stretch its body, detaching from Chen Yi’s wrist and soaring up.
The Jade Sword noticed it and imdiately left the Spring Rain Sword, swirling around with it as if playing.
"Xiao Qing, Xiao Qing..."
"Little Jade, Little Jade..."
A dragon and a sword had beco quite familiar with each other.
But most of the ti, the Little Green Dragon was usually sleeping, absorbing, and engulfing heavenly materials and earthly treasures or demon blood cores; occasionally awakening to assist Chen Yi in combat, rarely playing and relaxing as it did today.
The Jade Sword was usually lively, only being often reminded not to reveal itself lest it be noticed by others.
Lest the effects of being this trump card would diminish.
Chen Yi said so, and though unwilling, the Jade Sword had to obey.
During this ti, it followed Chen Yi and had seen the brilliance of this world.
The Ten Thousand Mountains, the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield, the Netherworld River, and now it’s about to head to the Tai Zhou Mountain Territory; it couldn’t be more exciting.
It was altogether more interesting than the ti it followed Xia Wanwan before.
After playing for a mont, the Little Green Dragon looked at the peaceful expression and steady aura of Chen Yi and curiously asked, "Is Brother Yi sleeping?"
The Jade Sword nodded its tip, "Probably, it’s very rare to see."
"Oh, the dragon is always sleeping too, never noticed these things."
"You lazy dragon, always sleeping, snoring..."
"The dragon doesn’t want to either, to grow up quickly, it relies on sleep to devour and grow. Fortunately, with Brother Yi’s help, it’s growing much faster than it did in the Dragon Field."
"Dragon Field? What kind of place is that?"
"The Dragon Field is just the Dragon Field, the elder there took care of the dragon growing up, but unfortunately, because it’s already old and can’t move, otherwise, it would have definitely left with the dragon this ti."
Little Green Dragon’s voice turned a bit low, but only for a mont before it stirred up its spirits again and said:
"Once the dragon grows a bit more, becoming as strong as my father, I will go back and rescue it."
The Jade Sword seed to sowhat understand and uttered an "oh" saying, "Then I wish you grow up quickly, so you can go to the Dragon Field."
Little Green Dragon nodded with a chuckle, glanced at Chen Yi’s side, its eyes twirling twice, then gestured a silence sign towards the Jade Sword and quietly dove into the Suru Bag.
A few breaths later, it erged again, clutching three millstone-sized blood cores in its little claws.
Turns out these were the Blood Cores above the Five Divine Power Realms of a Great Demon King.
"Oh no, I’m going to tell Brother Yi that you stole his Blood Cores again."
"How can this be stealing, what belongs to Brother Yi also belongs to the dragon, and the dragon’s belongs to Brother Yi."
The Jade Sword huffed and asked, "Then tell , what do you have?"
After swallowing the Blood Cores in three bites, Little Green Dragon thought for a mont and shook its head, saying:
"The dragon has nothing, but whatever I have in the future will surely be Brother Yi’s."
"Then you are stealing!"
"Dragon is not!"
"You are!"
"Dragon..."
The two little fellows argued and continued to swirl and circle in flight; even being mindful not to use their powers, the wind they stirred while dancing nearly made the cabin shake.
Chen Yi seed to have sensed sothing, opened his eyes, and couldn’t help but smile faintly, flicking his fingers twice to separate the dragon and the sword.
"You two settle down a bit, the array formation talismans in the house are about to collapse."
"Brother Yi, let tell you, the dragon stole the Blood Cores again."
