From the conversation between Xiao Qingxuan and the 2 cloaked men, Ou Yangming also roughly inferred what had happened.
Miss Xiao was from the distant Xiao family of Heaven’s Wall City. As her father was seriously ill and needed the Violet Herb to heal his injuries, she had come all the way here to look for them.
Unexpectedly, this was the enemy’s plan. She had not found the spiritual medicine and had instead lost herself.
Ou Yangming did not know this girl but judging from her behavior toward the rabbit, she should not be a bad person.
She was not a bad person, so there was no need to say the identity of the men.
“Little b*stard, I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business.”
The 2 men looked at Ou Yangming fiercely, their eyes filled with vigilance. If it was not because they did not know when he came and had scruples, they would have killed him right away without talking nonsense with him here.
“What if I insist on meddling in your business?” Ou Yangming had a faint smile on his face.
“You’re courting death then.” One of the burly men narrowed his eyes and gave the person beside him a look. “Big Brother, there’s no need to be polite with him. I think he’s just bluffing. Kill him first, then we can bring that girl back to report to Master.”
The 2 of them attacked together and charged toward Ou Yangming.
“Be careful!”
Inside the golden net, Xiao Qingxuan hurriedly reminded Ou Yangming. She did not know when he had appeared, but these 2 men were very powerful.
The 2 men moved very quickly. Their saber Qis were everywhere, and the sharp saber-lights seemed to be able to cut through the air.
Ou Yangming sneered and suddenly reached out his hand.
“Clang!”
While the men stared in disbelief, Ou Yangming reached out his hand and grabbed one of the long sabers. The other long saber hacked at his back.
Even so, that long saber did not hurt him at all. Instead, the man holding it was knocked back by the rebounding force.
“How’s this possible!” The man was shocked and looked at Ou Yangming in disbelief.
The other brawny man who attacked from the front was even more shocked. He looked at the long saber in Ou Yangming’s hand in astonishment.
This was a Good Grade magic treasure, and it was also imbued with the spiritual powers of the 2 people. Even a small mountain could be cut into two halves.
‘How did this young fellow manage to hold it in his hand?’
The 2 men felt that their minds were in a mess.
Xiao Qingxuan, who had warned Ou Yangming to be careful, also had her eyes wide open. She looked a little dumbfounded.
“Crack.” The sound was very clear.
Ou Yangming reached out his hand and gently twisted the long saber in his hand. The long saber, which was a Good Grade magic weapon, instantly broke into two halves.
The 3 of them were dumbstruck at the same time.
‘Is he still a human?’
‘How could there be such a terrifying person in the world?’
It was one thing to catch a Good Grade magic treasure with one hand, but Ou Yangming broke it into two halves so easily.
This was a Good Grade magic treasure!
The cloaked man holding the hilt of the saber trembled slightly. It was as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.
There was only one explanation. This young fellow was strong, so strong that it was beyond their imagination.
Ou Yangming looked at his palm with satisfaction. After fusing with more than 5,00 Dripping Blood Stones, the strength of his body had increased greatly again. He had long surpassed Low Grade Taoist Tools and was approaching Middle Grade ones at the moment. He was just a step away from reaching the Middle Grade Taoist Tool level.
This was a fearsome thing.
It was very difficult for others to request a Low Grade Taoist Tool, yet every part of Ou Yangming’s body could be used as one.
Even if he stood there and did not move, ordinary powerhouses would not be able to harm him even if they exhausted themselves to death.
Although these 2 cloaked men were Rulers, to Ou Yangming, they were not even considered ordinary powerhouses. The ordinary powerhouses that he spoke of were at least existences in the second step.
Ou Yangming stretched out his hand, and the burly man had no way to dodge.
“Sir, I…” The burly man felt a dangerous feeling.
Even so, he had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted.
“Don’t speak.” Ou Yangming pinched his throat, making him unable to make a single sound.
Then, he coldly shouted, “Soul-sucking.”
With Ou Yangming’s strength, he did not even need to kill this insignificant existence to be able to directly plunder his soul fragments.
This was actually better. The person was still alive, and the soul fragments were more intact. There was no need to worry about missing any memories.
In just a short moment, Ou Yangming had understood everything.
He put down the person in his hand. The soul fragments had been plundered, so it was impossible for the man to survive. Nobody could still live without a soul.
Ou Yangming turned around and looked in another direction.
Just now, when he was absorbing this man’s soul, the other person ran away in a hurry. From the soul fragments of the person on the ground, he knew these people very well. They were both ruthless and violent fanatics. Tens of thousands of innocent people had died in their hands, and the Xiao family was also plotted by the people behind them.
It was fine if Ou Yangming did not meet such evil people but since they had bumped into him, they could only consider themselves unlucky.
“Bang.”
The body of the burly man who had fled in a hurry suddenly froze. He did not even have time to scream before his body suddenly exploded.
After doing all this, Ou Yangming walked toward Xiao Qingxuan.
He raised his hand and grabbed the golden silk net on the ground.
This was a High Grade magic treasure with magical effects. It was not the treasure of those 2 people, but the one behind them had asked them to use it to capture people.
To ordinary people, it was a good thing, but it was nothing to Ou Yangming.
After the golden silk net was taken away from her body, Xiao Qingxuan’s expression gradually eased. She looked at Ou Yangming with bright eyes and said gratefully, “Thank you for saving my life, sir.”
“You’re welcome.”
Ou Yangming smiled, touched the golden silk in his hand, and threw it over.
“I’ll give this to you as well.”
“Sir, this thing is worth a lot of money…” Xiao Qingxuan was a little hesitant.
Ou Yangming shook his head. “Do you think I’ll care about this thing?”
Xiao Qingxuan was shocked. Thinking of the scene where Ou Yangming grabbed the long saber with one hand, she could not help but look at his palm. It was white and clean without any scars.
Such a formidable person would naturally not care about a High Grade magic tool.
Xiao Qingxuan no longer refused. She nodded and said, “Thank you, sir.”
“You came here for the Violet Herb?” Ou Yangming saw that she had put away the golden net, so he asked.
At the mention of the Violet Herb, Xiao Qingxuan’s expression changed slightly. “Yes, sir. My father was seriously injured and needed the Violet Herb to be treated. I heard that there are Violet Herbs here and rushed here. I didn’t expect it to be their trick.”
“Let me help you take a look.” Ou Yangming released his mental power and scanned the entire mountain in an instant.
After all, he had spent some time in the Mystic Sky Sect’s Alchemy School. He would not be so ignorant as to not know what the Violet Herb looked like.
Ou Yangming really did find some Violet Herbs.
The mountain stretched for 50,000 kilometers, but there were only a few Violet Herbs. Unless one was very lucky, one might not be able to find them even in 10 or 100 years.
Ou Yangming could release his divine sense fearlessly, but Xiao Qingxuan could not. There were many spirit beasts in the forest, and it would be a big problem to lure any one of them.
He opened his hand and soon, small herbs flew over from all directions.
These were Violet Herbs. There were a total of 9 of them, and they were all Violet Herbs within 50,000 kilometers of this area.
“These are…”
Xiao Qingxuan looked at the small herbs that were flying toward her from the sky.
These were all Violet Herbs. They were the ones that she had dreamed of.
Xiao Qingxuan felt as if she was in a dream. She had searched for so long but still could not find the Violet Herbs. Now, they were flying toward her like butterflies.
All 9 Violet Herbs flew toward her and lined up in the sky.
Ou Yangming did not reach out to take them. He asked, “Are you sure that your father’s illness can be cured with them?”
Xiao Qingxuan looked at the Violet Herbs and nodded her head several times. “Yes, yes. My father was hit by a mysterious person’s poisonous palm. The governor’s pharmacist said that only the Violet Herb can save his life.”
“Alright, take them all.”
Ou Yangming snapped his fingers, and the Violet Herbs floated down and landed right next to Xiao Qingxuan.
Xiao Qingxuan could not help but reach out to catch them. She asked in disbelief, “You’re really giving them all to me?”
“A gentleman’s word is a promise.” Ou Yangming smiled.
Xiao Qingxuan said somewhat anxiously, “I only need one stalk of Violet Herb. These are Grade 7 spiritual medicine. If they’re auctioned in a chamber of commerce, they can be sold for a large number of spirit coins.”
“Do you think I’m short of money?” Ou Yangming looked into Xiao Qingxuan’s eyes.
Xiao Qingxuan’s face turned red, and she stammered, unable to speak.
This mysterious person seemed to be omnipotent.
Xiao Qingxuan had no way of guessing what kind of existence he was.
“Then… Thank you very much.” Xiao Qingxuan felt her face burn as Ou Yangming looked at her.
“Oh, right.” Ou Yangming withdrew his gaze and took out a Five Revolutions Golden Pill from his pocket. He said, “If your father’s illness can not be cured with the Violet Herb, this pill should be able to save his life.”
Xiao Qingxuan looked at the Five Revolutions Golden Pill. This was a type of pill that she had never seen before. The pill Qi surrounding it showed that it was not an ordinary item.
Not only did Ou Yangming save her life, but he had also given him a treasure. He had helped her find so many Violet Herbs, and he even gave her a precious pill.
Xiao Qingxuan felt the corners of her eyes moisten. To outsiders, she was a genius and the hope of the Xiao family. However, no one knew her weak side. She was just an ordinary lady.
She also wanted someone to rely on.
Xiao Qingxuan did not know when she took the pill, but the young fellow had turned around and left.
She was anxious and hurriedly asked, “What’s your name?”
“Ou Yangming.”
The voice came from the wind, but the person had disappeared.
Xiao Qingxuan silently repeated this name a few times in her heart. Only then did she grit her teeth and turn around to leave. At this moment, she had once again recovered her strength. Her father was still waiting for her at home to bring back the spiritual herbs. She had to hurry back to Heaven’s Wall City.
On a mountain 10 kilometers away.
Ou Yangming watched Xiao Qingxuan leave. After a while, he retracted his gaze, and his face gradually turned cold.
“A good person should do good until the end. I’ll help you once more.”
A silver nameless spear appeared in his hand. This spear was smithed in the Enlightenment Pavilion. It blocked the secrets of heaven and did not even attract lightning.
The spear had recognized its master through blood. During the days when the Reincarnation Spear was lost, it would be Ou Yangming’s substitute.
A stream of light flashed, and the spear tore through the void and disappeared in an instant.
