Forest Path was dim, and Ye Tian's figure swiftly moved through it, the scene of the recent Beast War echoing in his mind, still leaving him with a sense of unease.
By the time he returned to the manor, it was completely dark. A figure with graying hair stood by the Pavilion by the Lake, looking quite anxious.
“Grandpa Leng.” Upon seeing that somewhat aged figure, a warm current surged within Ye Tianxin, and there was a hint of guilt in his tone.
Needless to say, that figure was Leng Wanli.
“Kid! Where have you been!” Leng Wanli's expression was serious, with a slight hint of anger.
“Grandpa Leng, I went into the mountains...” Ye Tian said softly.
“Why did you go into the mountains! Do you think this is Spirit Martial Town? Beasts roam frequently in the mountains; if you encounter one, you can forget about your life!” Leng Wanli waved his sleeve and turned away in anger.
“Gasp...”
Hearing Leng Wanli's words, Ye Tian couldn't help but take a sharp breath, recalling the terror of the Giant Thunder Lizard, while secretly feeling grateful that he had survived.
“Grandpa Leng, I won't do it again.” Ye Tian knew that the old man was worried about his safety. A glint of “cunning” flashed in his dark eyes as he reassured him.
How could he not go? He still wanted to find the Azure Royal Heaven Vine to heal Leng Wanli's injuries!
“Hmm.” Leng Wanli glanced at Ye Tian and nodded.
“Grandpa Leng, please eat this.” Not taking the old man's feigned indifference to heart, Ye Tian rummaged through his bag for a moment and then took out a silvery herb.
Leng Wanli looked at Ye Tian in confusion and asked, “What is this for?”
"This is called Wine Vine, and its taste is several times better than that Irresistible Desire. Don't believe me? Just try it!" Ye Tian rolled his eyes and recited the excuse he had prepared in his mind.
This silvery herb was not actually Wine Vine; it was a spiritual medicine that Ye Tian had discovered, named Silver Dragon Tendon, which was Earth Level One. It was also quite beneficial for repairing damaged heart veins. He had spent the entire day wandering in the mountains but had not found Azure Royal Heaven Vine. However, he did come across several Silver Dragon Tendons, so he wanted to take a chance and see if this item could improve Leng Wanli's condition.
"Wine Vine? Better than the Irresistible Desire I brewed myself?" Leng Wanli stared at Ye Tian with suspicion. He had great confidence in the liquor he personally brewed, so he was clearly skeptical upon hearing Ye Tian's words.
"You'll know once you try it!" Ye Tian deliberately put on a provocative demeanor and smiled.
Leng Wanli glanced at Ye Tian a few times, snorted coldly as if expressing his disbelief, and then put the Silver Dragon Tendon into his mouth and began to chew.
Seeing that he had successfully tricked the old man into consuming it, a smile crept onto Ye Tian's face. However, he felt a bit anxious inside; he couldn't guarantee whether the Silver Dragon Tendon was spicy or salty, fragrant or foul...
Furrowing his brows, Leng Wanli's expression grew increasingly unpleasant.
"Bah!"
Finally, after twitching his lips several times, the old man spat heavily and shouted angrily, "Kid! You tricked me! This thing had no flavor at first, but after chewing it, it became unbearably spicy. Where's the hint of wine aroma?"
"Whoa..." Ye Tian let out a sigh of relief; as long as it wasn't foul-smelling, the spiciness was manageable...
"Really? I don't think so. I find it quite tasty; it has a rich wine aroma! Maybe everyone's taste buds are different," Ye Tian certainly wouldn't admit it. After all, the old man had already consumed the Silver Dragon Tendon, and there was no need to argue about it anymore.
Hearing this, Leng Wanli shot him a glare and did not continue to debate.
"Grandpa Leng, don't you feel anything different?" Ye Tian couldn't help but ask. According to his expectations, Leng Wanli should have some reaction after consuming the Silver Dragon Tendon. Although this item couldn't compare to Azure Royal Heaven Vine, it was still an Earth Level One spiritual medicine.
"Of course I feel something!" Leng Wanli replied excitedly.
"Really?" Upon hearing the response, Ye Tian's face lit up with joy as he exclaimed, "That's wonderful!"
"I knew it! You must be messing with me!" Seeing Ye Tian's delighted expression, Leng Wanli became furious and shouted, "What are you up to? Are you trying to kill me with spice?"
"..." Ye Tian was speechless. After a moment of reflection, he seemed to think of something and tentatively asked, "Grandpa Leng, how do you feel right now..."
"How do I feel?" Leng Wanli raised an eyebrow and shouted, "My tongue is numb! My lips are trembling! That's how I feel!"
"..." Ye Tian was once again at a loss for words. He finally understood that when Leng Wanli mentioned feeling something earlier, it was actually due to the excessive spiciness.
"Sigh..." Feeling dejected, Ye Tian thought to himself, "If the Silver Dragon Tendon doesn't work, then it will be quite difficult. The Azure Royal Heaven Vine is an Earth Level Five herb, which is as hard to find as searching for a needle in a haystack. It seems that healing Grandpa Leng's injuries won't be easy..."
"Kid, why are you sighing?" Leng Wanli noticed Ye Tian's disappointment and thought his previous attitude had been too harsh. He softened his tone and asked.
"It's nothing, Grandpa Leng. Don't worry; I will definitely heal your injuries!" Ye Tian's dark eyes sparkled as he spoke firmly.
Leng Wanli was taken aback by his words. After a moment, he burst into laughter and said, "Kid, you're going to heal my injuries? Did you practice the recovery technique I taught you yesterday?"
It turned out that yesterday, Leng Wanli had taught Ye Tian the recovery technique he had comprehended. However, for Ye Tian, it seemed pointless to waste time practicing such a technique with so many herbs around.
"From the looks of it, you didn't practice at all, did you?" Leng Wanli looked down on Ye Tian and proudly said, "This technique is unique in the world. Although its effectiveness is lacking, it's better than nothing. If you persist in practicing it, twenty days should be enough for your injuries to heal!"
Ye Tian nodded sheepishly but thought to himself, "Since the Silver Dragon Tendon is ineffective for Grandpa Leng, I'll just use it myself. One plant should be enough to heal my injuries."
"Then I'll go practice now," Ye Tian said before turning to head back to his residence.
"Wait!" Leng Wanli suddenly called out to Ye Tian.
"What's wrong, Grandpa Leng?"
"Hehe..." Leng Wanli's stern face suddenly revealed a "sneaky" smile.
"..." Ye Tian involuntarily took a step back, worried that this old man was up to something again.
"Give me another one." Leng Wanli extended his hand, his expression turning shy.
Seeing the old man's strange demeanor, Ye Tian was puzzled and asked, "What?"
"Hey! You little brat, you're so stingy!" Leng Wanli said with displeasure, seemingly blaming Ye Tian for not catching on.
"Grandpa Leng... I really don't know what you want..." Ye Tian looked innocent.
"Wine Vine!" Leng Wanli sighed helplessly. Since Ye Tian didn't understand, he had no choice but to be straightforward.
"What Wine Vine..." Ye Tian had almost forgotten the lie he had just made up.
"Don't play dumb with me; I know you definitely have more!" Leng Wanli said irritably.
"Wine Vine..." Ye Tian scratched his head and suddenly realized. He hurriedly pulled out a Silver Dragon Tendon from his bag and said, "Here you go, Grandpa Leng!"
"Good!" Leng Wanli nodded in satisfaction. Then he chuckled and said, "You know, this stuff is spicy when you eat it, but afterward, it really is quite addictive. It can rival my 'Irresistible Desire'!"
After saying that, the old man stuffed it into his mouth and turned to leave while munching away.
Ye Tian watched this seemingly stern yet actually childish Grandpa Leng and shook his head helplessly. He thought to himself, "The Cold Family really is similar all around, from Sister Ningyue at the beginning to Uncle Leng, and now there's Grandpa Leng... They all have hearts that are quite different from their appearances..."
Thinking of this, Ye Tian chuckled and headed towards his residence.
...
The room was spacious, bright, and clean. Ye Tian lay on the bed, reflecting on the shocking Beast War that had taken place today.
"Sigh... what a pity. I wonder what the final outcome will be. That big fire probably burned everything, including any pills..." Ye Tian lamented in his heart for the likely lost Thunder Attribute Spirit Beast Inner Pill.
"Forget it, no use thinking about it. It's more important to heal my injuries first!"
Sitting up abruptly, Ye Tian took out the Silver Dragon Tendon from the cloth bag and then retrieved the Heavenly Fire Heart Furnace from his belongings, preparing to refine a Silver Dragon Pill.
Holding the Silver Dragon Tendon in his hand, the old man's face suddenly appeared in his mind. Ye Tian shook his head and chuckled, "Grandpa Leng has really developed a taste for it... I only gathered three stalks, and he ate two of them like delicacies..."
After laughing for a while, Ye Tian finally regained his composure and placed the Silver Dragon Tendon into the Heavenly Fire Heart Furnace, waiting for the refining process to complete.
Whoosh...
At the moment the Silver Dragon Tendon was placed into the Heavenly Fire Heart Furnace, a dazzling silver light suddenly flickered within the furnace. The brilliance was so intense that it surpassed any Dan Pill Ye Tian had refined before.
"Indeed worthy of being Earth Level One!"
With a sigh of admiration, Ye Tian's heart was filled with anticipation for the effects of this Silver Dragon Pill.
The silver light was blinding, illuminating everything around for about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea before showing signs of weakening.
Once the light completely dissipated, Ye Tian carefully took out a small Dan Pill from the Heavenly Fire Heart Furnace.
"It looks very effective!"
Ye Tian looked at the Dan Pill in his hand, which emitted a soft silver glow, and smacked his lips.
Gurgle...
A gurgling sound came from his throat, and Ye Tian tilted his head back to swallow the Silver Dragon Pill.
Hiss, hiss, hiss...
The moment the Dan Pill entered his abdomen, he almost instantly felt a gentle warm current in his Dantian. The warmth softly wrapped around his Dantian.
"Ah..."
Such a comfortable sensation made Ye Tian exhale lightly, enjoying it as he squinted his eyes.
This feeling lasted for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Finally, with a clear sound echoing from his Dantian, Ye Tian felt a surge of power reignite within him.
A hint of joy appeared on his face as Ye Tian slowly stretched his hand towards the sky.
Crash!
The sound of thunder echoed as a ball of blue lightning flickered to life.
