Chapter 100: Lotus-like Face and Willow-like Eyebrows
Seeing that Green Shadow Master had given up fighting and was about to leave, no one paid any attention. Then, while Green Shadow Master was retrieving the ancient bell magic weapon, he casually launched a sneak attack on Ye Xiaobai. Ye Xiaobai had been trapped for a while and couldn't react in time, so he took the hit squarely.
He then vomited a large mouthful of blood.
"This is utterly despicable!" Ye Xiaobai shouted, enduring the pain in his body.
"Ye Xiaobai, if you survive after being hit by my Shadowless Palm, you're lucky!" Green Shadow Master said with a smile and left.
Blue Spear Master was also helpless at this moment. He did not expect that Green Shadow Master would actually launch a sneak attack on his junior before leaving.
"Are you alright?" The girl walked up to where Ye Xiaobai was and asked calmly.
Once he relaxed, Ye Xiaobai could feel the complex fragrance emanating from the girl's body, which included the scents of various unknown spiritual herbs, as well as a fragrance that was both familiar and unfamiliar—the scent of osmanthus.
The aroma made Ye Xiaobai feel refreshed and his spirits were restored in an instant, which amazed him!
"I won't die. Thank you so much, seniors from Miaodanfang, for saving my life today. If you ever need me, I, Ye Xiaobai, will go through fire and water for you, even if it means risking my life!" Ye Xiaobai said passionately.
"Boy, enough with the pretty words. Where are the spiritual herbs from our Miaodanfang? Why aren't you bringing them out?" The girl didn't care at all about what Ye Xiaobai said.
"Fairy, what are you talking about? Didn't I buy these spiritual herbs from your Wonderful Pill Shop at a high price before?" Ye Xiaobai asked with a puzzled look.
"Ye Xiaobai, stop playing dumb. I'm talking about the spirit herbs that were stolen from us before. Are they in your hands?" the girl said impatiently.
"Wow, the fairy actually knows my name, but I don't know the fairy's name?" Ye Xiaobai could only try to change the subject. Although knowing it wouldn't do much good, he was still puzzled as to how they knew that the spirit herb was in his possession.
"I'll tell you the name, but if you do, you have to hand over our spirit herbs!" The girl's attitude softened slightly.
"May I ask your name, fairy?"
"Liu Rumei!"
"A face as beautiful as a lotus, eyebrows as delicate as willows—what a lovely name!" Ye Xiaobai exclaimed, praising Liu Rumei's name.
"You've got a way with words, kid!" Liu Rumei's face immediately lit up with joy.
"Young Miss, the things!" Blue Spear Master frantically winked at Liu Rumei.
"Oh, right, Ye Xiaobai, stop with the nice words, where are the spirit herbs?" Liu Rumei suddenly remembered the important matter.
"What kind of spiritual herb?" Ye Xiaobai still wanted to play dumb to see if he could get away with it, although he felt the chances were slim.
"Where are the spiritual herbs from our Miaodanfang?" Liu Rumei asked again, somewhat impatiently.
"Didn't I buy that with spirit stones?" Ye Xiaobai pretended to be stupid again.
"Ye Xiaobai, stop pretending! Are you trying to force us to take action? The storage bag containing the stolen spiritual herbs has our Miaodanfang's mark on it!" Liu Rumei said angrily.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaobai felt incredibly embarrassed. He had been pretending to be stupid for so long, only to find out that the clown was actually himself.
Then, he pretended to pull out the storage bag and said with a smile, "Oh, you mean this storage bag? I just killed a rogue cultivator and got it. I haven't had time to check what's inside yet!"
"Really?" Liu Rumei asked doubtfully.
"Really! What's inside?" Ye Xiaobai immediately feigned curiosity and pretended to go take a look.
"Never mind, it's good that the items have been found!" Liu Rumei said calmly after confirming the number of spirit herbs in the storage bag.
"There are just some spiritual herbs inside!"
"By the way, I wonder if you have sweet grass flowers? I was thinking of buying some at Miaodanfang, but I only bought two!" Ye Xiaobai asked quickly.
"You're lucky! There really is one!"
"Could Fairy Rumei give me some?" Ye Xiaobai asked shamelessly.
“No!” Liu Rumei immediately refused.
"Then can I buy some?" Ye Xiaobai asked. Liu Rumei refused, knowing that he couldn't get something for free and would have to pay for it.
"That's definitely possible."
Afterwards, Ye Xiaobai spent another 100,000 spirit stones to buy enough sweet grass flowers, which finally solved the task of purchasing spirit herbs.
"By the way, are you alright after being hit by the Shadowless Palm?" Liu Rumei asked casually after seeing that everything was resolved.
"It's nothing serious, I'll be fine after a few rests. Thank you for your concern, Fairy!"
"That's good! Then we'll meet again!" Liu Rumei said, then turned and left.
"Until we meet again! Thank you again for saving me, Fairy!" Ye Xiaobai shouted loudly as he watched Liu Rumei's departing figure.
Soon Liu Rumei disappeared from sight, and Ye Xiaobai then packed up and left as well.
Since Ye Xiaobai is currently seriously injured, finding a quiet place to heal is the most important thing right now.
Before long, Ye Xiaobai found a secluded place, first set up a simple formation, then took some healing pills, and finally closed his eyes to meditate.
Three days later, Ye Xiaobai's injuries had mostly healed. However, the palm strike left by that Green Shadow Immortal was indeed extraordinary.
In the past few days, Ye Xiaobai discovered that a green spiritual energy had been rampaging through his body, causing him great pain. However, he was unable to resolve the issue at the moment, and he knew that if this continued, it would definitely affect his cultivation and might even endanger his life.
"That beast, Green Shadow Immortal!" Ye Xiaobai could only curse.
No wonder that Green Shadow Master mocked Ye Xiaobai after he left, saying that he would hardly survive after being hit by the Shadowless Palm.
Ye Xiaobai had no other choice but to try to control the situation for the time being and then return to the sect to find a solution.
For safety's sake, Ye Xiaobai first took a disguise pill to change his appearance, lest he encounter any enemies on the way and be in trouble.
Ye Xiaobai is now practically powerless, and the Purple Flame Thunder Leopard is also seriously injured and has not yet recovered.
Ye Xiaobai is no match for even a Foundation Establishment cultivator, let alone a Core Formation cultivator who wants his life.
Once everything was ready, Ye Xiaobai flew back to the White Tiger Sect at top speed on his sword, not daring to stop for even a moment along the way.
He was focused on returning safely to the White Tiger Sect as soon as possible.
Fortunately, the journey went smoothly, and Ye Xiaobai arrived at the White Tiger Sect without incident.
After entering the territory of the White Tiger Sect, Ye Xiaobai finally breathed a sigh of relief, as he was finally safe and home.
Next, Ye Xiaobai returned to his cave to adjust himself, and then immediately went to the sect's library to find a solution to the Shadowless Palm.
After searching for five whole days, Ye Xiaobai had practically scoured every book in the library and finally found a way to counter the Shadowless Palm technique.
When Ye Xiaobai found it, he was overjoyed, as the problem of the green spiritual energy in his body could now be solved.
Upon closer inspection, Ye Xiaobai was instantly frustrated. One method recorded in the book was to use the power of lightning to destroy this green energy, but the prerequisite was that the cultivator's physical strength needed to withstand the baptism of lightning power.
The thought of needing lightning power to enter his body filled Ye Xiaobai with immense fear, but he soon came up with a solution.
