Chapter 508: Nangong Ling'er [5th Update, Bonus for Sky Knows]
Li Xiaoyao's figure flashed, and he entered the Human Realm, with nine people closely following behind.
The elderly man who had locked eyes with Li Xiaoyao's murky eyes suddenly brightened, looking towards Li Xiaoyao, but Li Xiaoyao had already entered the Human Realm.
An elder nearby noticed the change in his emotion and communicated telepathically, "What's wrong?"
"The kid who just went in has a very strong spiritual power."
"Very strong? How strong? Could it be stronger than yours?"
The elder laughed and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? So young, if his spiritual power is as strong as mine, then wouldn't my years of cultivation be in vain? However, this kid's spiritual power is indeed not bad. According to the order of entry, he should be from the Xuan Sect. Hmm, not bad, I will check it out later. If his talent is good, taking him as my closed-door disciple wouldn't be a bad idea."
"Nangong old man, are you serious? You're actually considering it?" The elder thought the old fellow was just joking, but who would have imagined he was seriously considering taking a disciple.
Nangong old man's eyes gleamed. He had sensed clearly just now how robust Li Xiaoyao's spiritual power was. Such a talented young man, if guided properly, would undoubtedly achieve remarkable feats in the future.
"You guys better not compete with me; I discovered this kid first." Nangong old man declared with a vigilant face, fearing these old fellows would snatch the youngster from him.
The old man opposite said with a speechless face, "Alright, alright, no one is competing with you. Who knows if you're not mistaken."
...
As if wrapped in warm spiritual power, the sensation of warmth made Li Xiaoyao feel extremely comfortable.
When passing through the spatial passage, he couldn't sense the passage of time; maybe only a second had passed, or perhaps a day.
His view changed in front of him, with green mountains and clear rivers, clean air, and... terrifying gravity.
The Human Realm was not much different from the outside world, except for the tenfold gravity.
Li Xiaoyao clenched his fists. The tenfold gravity didn't affect him much, for he possessed a Golden Body; such gravity was nothing to him.
He looked around and saw not a single person.
Raising his right hand, he lightly tapped his eyebrow with his index finger. A vast ocean-like spiritual power burst out instantaneously. Yet, oddly, this spiritual power revolved entirely around Li Xiaoyao's body within a half-meter radius, unable to advance any further.
Frowning, Li Xiaoyao said, "Is it impossible to use mental commands here?"
With a thought, the spiritual power surged back into his sea of consciousness. Li Xiaoyao closed his eyes and felt carefully. A few seconds later, he abruptly opened his eyes.
His gaze turned towards the direction of the mountains on the left. There, there were three presences.
Although he couldn't release mental commands, he could sense those jade tokens. This was a sensing between spiritual powers; he had left an imprint on the jade tokens, and as long as the distance wasn't excessively far, he could sense them clearly.
"Let's go."
The first thing Li Xiaoyao needed to do was to find the nine disciples of the Xuan Sect and Li Tu. As for the members of the Li Family, they were his second priority.
After all, Li Xiaoyao had promised Jiang Lichun that he would protect the disciples of the Xuan Sect at all costs.
A man, once he promises, must deliver.
"Is this the Human Realm?"
Li Xiaoyao had not walked far when a beautiful woman suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of him.
The woman had short, wavy hair, big watery eyes, and wore a thin white shirt that revealed a sensational figure underneath.
At a glance, Li Xiaoyao felt that the woman was very ethereal, without a trace of mortal dust, exuding a transcendent and serene aura.
The woman also saw Li Xiaoyao, blinked her big eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly.
"Who are you?" asked the woman sweetly, without any hint of guard, as if in her eyes, the whole world was filled with good people.
"Li Xiaoyao." He reported his name indifferently and was secretly sizing up the woman as well.
The woman's forehead was dotted with a layer of fine sweat beads, which was likely due to the tenfold gravity in the Human Realm, making it difficult for her to adapt momentarily.
"Hello, I'm Nangong Ling'er." True to her name, her voice was as crisp as an oriole, making one's heart itch with curiosity.
"Which sect do you come from?" Nangong Ling'er asked.
"Xuan Sect." After saying this, Li Xiaoyao was about to leave; he didn't want to have too much contact with anyone outside of the Xuan Sect or the Li Family.
Nangong Ling'er obviously didn't think the same. She smiled and said, "Oh, I've heard of it. It's the Xuan Sect from Zhongnan Mountain. Master Liu Chengxiang's divination skills are profound and unmatched. Many cultivators have sought his guidance."
"Mm." Li Xiaoyao nodded indifferently, showing no interest in continuing the conversation.
Perhaps sensing Li Xiaoyao's cold demeanor, Nangong Ling'er gave an apologetic smile, stepped aside, and said, "You must have important matters to attend to. I won't disturb you any further."
After saying that, Nangong Ling'er suddenly lost her balance, wobbled, and fell to the ground.
Li Xiaoyao had just walked a few steps when he saw her fall and sit on the ground. He hesitated for two seconds and ultimately sighed, turning back and walking over to her.
Nangong Ling'er heard footsteps approaching and looked up to see Li Xiaoyao standing in front of her.
"You..."
Li Xiaoyao interrupted her, "Follow me."
"Ah? Oh, okay." A surge of joy filled Nangong Ling'er's heart as she quickly stood up, but she rose too abruptly, causing her head to spin and her body to sway as if she was about to fall again.
Li Xiaoyao, quick to react, reached his hand around her waist and steadied her body.
"Are you okay?"
"No... I'm fine." Nangong Ling'er shook her head repeatedly, twisted her soft body, and detached herself from Li Xiaoyao's embrace.
Li Xiaoyao didn't feel embarrassed; he had simply supported her without any ulterior motives. He wasn't the type of beast that couldn't walk when seeing a woman or think with his lower half.
"Just follow me," he said indifferently and walked ahead with Nangong Ling'er following closely behind.
To accommodate her, Li Xiaoyao deliberately slowed down his pace.
After walking about several dozen meters, Nangong Ling'er slowly adapted to the tenfold gravity. Looking at the figure of the man ahead, she softly said, "Thank you."
"Mm."
Nangong Ling'er was curious; she had never met such an indifferent man before, or rather, she had never seen a man act so indifferently in her presence.
The men from her past were always eager to show off their bravest side to win her affection.
But the man before her seemed very different from those men.
Women are magical creatures; one can never truly know what they are thinking.
After walking for about two hundred meters or so, Li Xiaoyao encountered a man.
The man was soaked with sweat and sitting on the ground to adjust his state. From a distance, he saw Li Xiaoyao and Nangong Ling'er approach and was initially startled. Then, noticing their nonchalance, he couldn't help but be surprised.
To walk as if unaffected in the Human Realm, one's cultivation level must be formidable.
The man glanced at the two and was noticeably stunned by the ethereal aura around Nangong Ling'er.
