Such A Small World
When thinking about that, Ye Xiao felt his blood raging. He took a long and deep breath to calm the raging blood in his body. As he did, his eyes quickly became brighter.
As of this moment, Ye Xiao was unaware of the East-rising Purple Qi’s power. Not just that, he also didn’t realize that when he would eventually reach the peak of the East-rising Purple Qi cultivation, he would become much more than a simple immortal existence. He would become an unparalleled legend!
Right now, all that Ye Xiao knew was that the awful smell from before had returned and that he badly needed a bath to clean the filth covering him. His body was completely covered by a disgusting layer of brown sticky outer skin with big beads of sweat dripping in between. These were the impurities found in every simple human being and only once one started on their journey of cultivation could they expel them out of their body.
This state of the body was something every cultivator wished to attain. It was the important ablution of muscles and bones, as he had successfully broken through the first level of the Grade of Diyuan and had entered the second grade!
For the current Xiao Monarch, this was an absolutely outstanding accomplishment!
He had already achieved two ablutions of his muscles and bones. To achieve just one ablution was an incredible achievement, but to actually achieve a second one, and in such a short time as well, was definitely unheard of!
As Ye Xiao stood up, he felt the bones in his body crack. As he fully straightened his back, he realized that he had actually grown a little bit taller over the course of this single night.
After Ye Xiao had properly cleaned his body from the disgusting filth in a nice and comfortable warm bath, he turned to look in a mirror and gasped in admiration for the image he perceived, “I am so bloody handsome! The girl I will eventually marry must definitely possess many generations of her family's good fortune…”
Coincidently, the steward walked to the door and heard what Ye Xiao was saying. He nearly fell down because of that. Although he was usually a composed steward, at the moment, he couldn’t help but twist his mouth and shiver…
“What the hell… I have traveled extensively for 30 years and gone through fire and water for 18 years. Even so I have never seen anybody that narcissistic…”
“What a top wonder of the world!” He spoke straight out.
“What top wonder of the world?” Ye Xiao was opening the door and happened to hear that, so he asked.
He knew that even though he had gotten the memory from the dead Ye Xiao, he still had much to learn about this mortal world. He wouldn’t let go a chance to gain more information!
“Hmm… Urh… Well…” The steward spoke slowly, “My lord, there were some supreme dan beads at the auction in the Ling-Bao Hall Salesroom. I was saying that those dan beads were truly a top wonder of the world.”
“Supreme dan beads?” Ye Xiao curled his lip and thought, “Supreme dan bead he said. That’s nothing. It is just something I used to earn some money, you fool.”
“My lord, I think it would better for you to stay at home these days.” The steward said seriously, “I have heard that the kingdom is extremely chaotic right now. All those martial sects including the mysterious ones and the noble clans are sending their core forces to the capital. The next few months in the capital will be filled with dangers…”
He looked at Ye Xiao and had an opinion that he dared not to voice, but spoke in his mind instead, “A foppish young lord like you will easily be the target of their swords. Hmm, you are dead meat if you get into any trouble.”
In the government and among the residents, people may be afraid of offending the General Ye, but those people who fought for living or came from some great sects or noble clans were fearless. They would easily kill anybody like crumpling a piece of paper…
“How can I just stay here? I am going out now…” Ye Xiao frowned.
“It would be better if you don’t.” The steward also frowned and said impatiently.
All the clans in the capital were recalling their fighters from the frontlines. All the young lords were forbidden to go out by their families. Every clan was preparing to receive these sects…
At this time, if Ye Xiao walked out on the street, he would be like a bright lamp in a dark tunnel – a vivid target.
Ye Xiao signed, “Don’t worry. I will keep myself inconspicuous…” He then pushed the door open and left.
“Stay low, my lord.” The steward spoke and thought, “Oh my lord… please don’t get into any trouble…”
“All right. Absolutely!” Ye Xiao loudly replied as he had already moved far away.
Both of them didn’t know that Ye Xiao would neither keep away from trouble nor would he stay low, instead he was going to be the centerpiece of an earthshaking event!
Ye Xiao was walking breezily on the streets. As he had the money now, he certainly was heading to the herbal medicine market. That was his most important goal at the moment.
Above all, after having absorbed the blood ginseng into the sphere’s space, he had great confidence in the use of herbal medicine for this space. He couldn’t wait to get to the market.
In Ye Xiao’s opinion, no matter if it was in the Qing-Yun Realm or the mortal world, cultivation was always the top priority!
He was trying to keep his promise, so he stayed low all along and showed no curiosity towards anything. In fact he had no mood for trouble.
As he got closer to the herbal medicine market, he sniffed a dense smell of the herbal medicine.
Ye Xiao’s eyes lit up and he trotted over to the market with excitement.
The market was on a street which was over six miles long and at least half of the stores in it were selling herbal medicine. The others were either clinics or stands that were selling medical equipment. Most of the people walking on this street were wearing fierce expressions.
