Chapter 13: It Wasn't in Vain!

Liu Yiyi, feeling a bit scared, grabbed onto Wu Gang's clothes, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

Wu Gang was initially taken aback, but then his protective instincts exploded, and he couldn't hide the infatuated smile on his face.

If she can hold onto my clothes today, then in two years, she'll be able to hold my hand, won't she?

Suddenly, there was hope in his life! Wu Gang felt a surge of motivation throughout his body.

On the other hand, Xu You remained calm. He saw him forming hand seals with both hands, and a flying sword flew to his left side, while his right hand conjured an extremely thin red thread.

This thread was called the Fire Yang Thread, a secret technique of the Nine Yang Immortal Art.

It possessed a powerful killing force, an intense yang energy, and was one of the strongest Divine Abilities Xu You had mastered at his current stage.

He wielded both the flying sword and the thread, and wherever they passed, there was a sizzling sound.

He skillfully killed all these fire snakes as if plucking feathers from a flying goose.

"Everyone remember to hold your breath. These fiery snakes enjoy indulgence, and the toxic mist they release upon death can have an aphrodisiac effect. It can affect the judgment of those around you." Bai Genshuo thoughtfully added an explanation in a loud voice.

Upon hearing this, Wu Gang's heart stirred. He silently and crazily inhaled the mist, while looking at his charming junior sister behind him.

Sometimes, the thought process of a straight man is quite peculiar.

Just like Wu Gang at this moment, he eagerly inhaled the mist, hoping that the aphrodisiac effect would make his junior sister like him even more later.

Then he wouldn't have to wait two years to hold hands; one year would be enough!

Xu You, who was leading the way, naturally didn't pay attention to these things. His eyes were bloodshot!

Although these little snake demons didn't have anything valuable, when accumulated, they formed three small sticks on the Azure Lotus.

Xu You's hands danced wildly as he continued to slaughter his way forward. The fiery snakes reproduced in large numbers, making it impossible to kill them all.

"Shouldn't he be so excited about killing that he wants to kill us too?" Bai Genshuo, frightened by this brutal scene, slowed down his pace.

His companions nodded in agreement.

Xu You's killing intent and strength at this moment exceeded their expectations. They had never seen such intense killing intent before.

Too ruthless!

After half an hour, the group had almost explored half of the underground cavern. Xu You finally stopped and took a deep breath.

He turned to look at everyone and asked curiously, "Why are you all so far away?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Bai Genshuo laughed and approached, saying, "Junior Brother is truly heroic."

"Xu Junior Brother must be tired from all the killing. Let's take a break and adjust our state." Wu Gang also spoke up.

Naturally, Xu You had no objections. He immediately sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to adjust his breath.

Wu Gang and the others looked at the snake demon corpses scattered all around them, feeling a bit amazed.

Xu You's combat power displayed just now far exceeded that of a mid-stage cultivator in the Third Realm, especially that red thread, which looked terrifying.

Xu You immersed his consciousness in the Azure Lotus and immediately pressed down on the stamen.

Seven or eight small sticks rushed into the crack one after another.

After trembling for a while, they continuously emitted golden light. Xu You's face lit up with joy as he focused his gaze.

He saw eight fiery red pills.

[Fiery Snake Beast Core]

Looking at these eight pills, Xu You was actually a bit disappointed. He had been chopping for half a day, his eyes were dry, and all he got in return were a few pills that he couldn't use for the time being.

But if they really could enhance dual cultivation, he could sell them for a good price.

Thinking about money, Xu You's motivation returned.

"Junior Brother Xu, you've worked so hard. Thank you." Liu Yiyi appeared by Xu You's side at some point, her smile sweet and her tea flavor strong as she praised Xu You.

Xu You looked up at her and smiled, "It's nothing."

Liu Yiyi smiled sweetly again, unable to help but take a few more glances at Xu You's smile.

He looks so good when he smiles, and he's so capable. The impression he gives is really good.

After taking out two pills to restore his vitality, Xu You stood up and said, "I'm almost done, continue."

Saying that, Xu You stood up directly, holding a sword in his left hand and a fire silk in his right hand, continuing to explore and fight ahead.

Bai Genshuo and the others could only follow in astonishment.

The next part of the journey, the tunnel became smaller and smaller, estimated to be shaped like an inverted gourd. The number of fiery snake demons around also greatly decreased, but their quality improved.

Most of them were at the Late Stage of the first realm, with a few at the early stage of the second realm.

Xu You not only didn't feel tired, but became more excited. With the improvement in quality, the quantity of pills would increase.

"Let me borrow your flying sword!"

In no time, the durability of the cheap flying sword in Xu You's hand was completely depleted and it collapsed. He reached out and took the one behind Bai Genshuo, continuing to hack away.

Wu Gang looked at Bai Genshuo in confusion and asked, "Junior Brother Xu, where did you get this?"

Bai Genshuo scratched his head, "Just found it."

"Awesome." Long Tao, who had been silent, added a sentence.

Liu Yiyi looked at Xu You's tall figure, hacking away, with increasing curiosity in her eyes. She felt that Xu You was responsible, daring, and had a good-looking back.

"Phew."

After a while, Xu You took a deep breath and stopped his movements. There was no grass around, only snake demon corpses on the ground.

With this wave of hacking, he also accumulated a lot of snake demon essence sticks, estimated to be able to refine about ten pills.

Just in terms of these pills, this trip was not in vain.

Xu You was very satisfied and turned his head, "Senior Brother Wu, this area is almost done. I estimate that only the area inside is left. It may be more dangerous, so Senior Brother Wu, you may need to explore it first."

"Okay." Wu Gang nodded directly.

"Oh, what kind of herb is this?" Liu Yiyi suddenly pointed to a corner on the right, where a red herb was quietly blooming.

It emitted a faint light, and even from a distance, one could smell the faint fragrance of the herb.

"That's the Heart-Connecting Red Candle Flower. It's a companion herb of the fiery snake demon. The alchemists in the sect often collect it, and its value ranges from three hundred to five hundred Kun coins depending on the year! It's a very rare immortal herb." Bai Genshuo blurted out, reciting it like a treasure.

After Bai Genshuo said this, everyone looked at that herb. Its value was very high! It was worth several ordinary missions.

"I'll go get it." Liu Yiyi smiled lightly and floated towards the herb.

The process of collecting the herb went smoothly, without any danger. It was clear that Liu Yiyi also knew a bit about pharmacology, and she perfectly took the herb.
