When Shi Ling heard this, he couldn't help but look at the emblem on his right shoulder and his expression changed slightly. It was hard to imagine that this young man in front of him was actually a general of the army, and he suddenly asked for a Heart Ring. Should he give it to him or not?

All of them stared at him with unfriendly eyes. Immediately, Shi Ling lowered his head to look at his own Heart Ring, but in the end, he clenched his teeth and handed it over to the young man, saying: "It's just an ordinary Storage Ring."

Shi Ling's idea was very simple. If the other party really wanted to snatch the Heart Ring, then Shi Ling's current strength was not enough to protect the Heart Ring. At that time, not only would he be beaten up, he might even be dragged into the prison.

At this time, the young man did not care about Shi Ling's words and directly took the Heart Ring over. He then used a technique to look inside the Heart Ring and found that other than a few cultivation resources, he could not find anything else. He looked at Shi Ling with suspicion and said: "These things are worth your risk to sit on such a high cliff?"

Shi Ling was instantly speechless. He couldn't help but laugh and say: "In the lowest level cultivator, cultivation resources are very scarce, even a little is not enough to give up on."

After the young man heard this, he could not help but sneer and threw the Heart Ring back into Shi Ling's hands. As a general of the army, he naturally did not think much of Shi Ling's items. He placed his hands behind his back and said: "My name is Mo Chen, what about you?"

Shi Ling quickly cupped his fist and said with his head lowered, "Shi Ling."

Mo Chen nodded and looked in the direction Yue Qingcheng left, saying, "You've done a great deed today."

Mo Chen smiled and said, "When Lady Princess is in a bad mood, no one dares to get close to her. When she was standing on the cliff just now, although I wasn't worried about her falling down, even if she fell down, she might not get hurt, but if others saw it, wouldn't it mean that my guards failed to protect Lady Princess?"

Shi Ling could not help but let out a hollow laugh. This was all that he felt, so why did he say that? He said: "I don't dare to take credit for the meritorious service. I was only trying to retrieve my own things."

When Mo Chen heard this, he smiled. At the same time, he nodded and said, "Very good, I even know that I'm a nobody."

With that, he arrived in front of Shi Ling. He was half a head taller than Shi Ling and looked down at Shi Ling. He said, "Since you know you're a nobody, how could you dare to say disrespectful words about becoming friends with the princess?"

Shi Ling shook his head slightly and said, "Can't you tell? If I did not think of a way to stop her and really allowed her to injure me, I, as a bystander, would have to blame it for that. Thus, in order to stabilize Lady Princess's emotions, I could only deliberately say those disrespectful words, and I hope that Lord Lieutenant would forgive me. "

After Mo Chen heard this, he couldn't help but let out a cold snort and said: "Since you are also thinking for the princess, I might as well not pursue your disrespect. Men, drag it down and whip it for twenty years!"

Immediately, a few of the soldiers came out and yelled, "Yes!" Then they saw the soldiers walk towards Shi Ling, and Shi Ling was also stunned. He knew the terror of the whip, and when he looked at Mo Chen and saw the guy turn his face away, Shi Ling swallowed the words he wanted to beg for.

Shi Ling shouted loudly, "Lord Lieutenant, are you not afraid of Spirit Sword Sect's questions when you punish Spirit Sword Sect disciples as you please?"

It was impossible for him to deal with these people, and he didn't have the strength to deal with them either, so it was even more impossible for him to beg for forgiveness. Therefore, he could only bring out his Spirit Sword Sect to see if he could cause some concern for them. Do you still dare to turn hostile with me? "

At this moment, Shi Ling tightly clenched his fists as he looked at Mo Chen's back. His eyes immediately turned red and he clenched his teeth tightly. At this moment, Shi Ling had started to have a deep desire for strength. If he was strong enough, he would definitely make that bastard kneel down and lick his shoes for him.

Shi Ling, who was dragged to the side, stared blankly at a torture device assembled by a soldier and cuffed his own. This torture device was similar to the guillotine, Shi Ling couldn't even move his hands, only his back.

With a ripping sound, the clothes behind Shi Ling were torn apart, revealing his skinny back. Then, a leather whip appeared in the hands of the soldier behind Shi Ling.

After Shi Ling heard the voice, he clenched his fists. His eyes started to have a blue light seeping out, the Floral Pupil appeared and disappeared, as if it could be released at any time.

But at this moment, Bai Xiaosheng suddenly said in Shi Ling's heart, "Shi Ling, don't resist, let them fight!"

Shi Ling's eyes suddenly opened wide as he thought in his heart, "What do you mean?"

Bai Xiaosheng continued, "Believe me, don't resist now and let them hit you!"

Shi Ling was stunned for a while, but before he could say anything in his heart, he heard a soft pop. Immediately after, Shi Ling felt a heart-wrenching pain, and the next moment, he saw a bloody wound appear on Shi Ling's back. Shi Ling immediately roared.

In an instant, the entire mountain was filled with Shi Ling's screams. The twenty whips didn't seem to be much, but it didn't matter. At least, as far as Shi Ling was concerned, after the twentieth whip was finished, he immediately lay there like a dead dog, without any reaction.

After that, he threw Shi Ling to the side. Mo Chen, who saw this scene not far away, snorted and said, "Next time, if I see someone who can climb the dragon or phoenix, it won't be as easy as merely 20 lashes. Do you understand?"

Everyone around them acknowledged in unison. In fact, Mo Chen's words were meant for Shi Ling to tell him that if Shi Ling had any more thoughts about climbing the ranks of dragons and riding the phoenixes, then the punishment would not only be twenty lashes, but even better, there was someone waiting for him behind Shi Ling.

Immediately, he heard Mo Chen say, "Let's go."

With that, Mo Chen led his guards and left the place, leaving behind the dying Shi Ling who was still lying on the ground. After a long while, Bai Xiaosheng flew out from the Heart Ring and whispered into Shi Ling's ear: "Hey, Shi Ling, how are you?"

Shi Ling struggled to get up from the ground and said, "He won't die."

After that, he raised his hand with difficulty and took out a few Stellar Source Fruit s from the Heart Ring s. He placed them into his own mouth and chewed them in large mouthfuls.

Stellar Source Fruit was indeed worthy of being called the healing panacea in the cultivation world. Shi Ling just casually ate a few and the blood that flowed from the wound behind him stopped and even scarred. Bai Xiaosheng said: "How is it now? Can we go now? "

Shi Ling stood up from the ground with difficulty and said, "No problem."

Bai Xiaosheng said: "Alright then, before the Stellar Source Fruit completely heals your injuries, quickly return to your original room."

Shi Ling revealed a puzzled expression at first, but he still walked towards the service department. Along the way, the Stellar Source Fruit's effect became faster and faster, and Shi Ling gradually felt that his back was no longer hurting.

Immediately, Shi Ling could not help but exclaim in wonder: "Stellar Source Fruit are really good stuff, it's only been a while, my back doesn't even hurt anymore, it's a pity that I only have seven or eight Stellar Source Fruit left in my stock, if I knew this would happen, I would have bought more the last time I went to Myriad Treasures Pavilion."

Shi Ling said to Bai Xiaosheng while they were walking. Bai Xiaosheng smiled and said, "If someone can refine a Stellar Source Fruit into a Star Origin Pill, then it would be considered a healing panacea."

Shi Ling could not help but let out an "Ah" as he tilted his head to look at Bai Xiaosheng and said: "Can Stellar Source Fruit also be used to refine pills?"

Bai Xiaosheng said, "Any plant with spiritual energy can basically be refined into a medicinal pill. But, whether or not it can be refined into a pill depends on the level of the alchemist."

Shi Ling was surprised for a moment, and said: "I've never heard of Stellar Source Fruit being able to make pills. If they can, I think they need a super alchemist to be able to do it right?"

Bai Xiaosheng nodded and said, "At the very least, there is no one in this tiny Nine Regions Empire that can refine it. If we want to find the Star Origin Pill, I'm afraid we have to go to the Peacock Grand Ming Empire to find it."

When Shi Ling heard this, his mouth opened and closed. There was no one in the entire Nine Prefectures that could refine this! Then how difficult would it be to refine such a pill? Shi Ling couldn't imagine it anymore.

While they were talking, Shi Ling had already returned to his junk room. At this moment, all of the poison gas in the room had evaporated, so it would not affect people. Shi Ling sat on his bed and said: "Okay, now tell me why you want me to be beaten, right?"

Bai Xiaosheng said, "Alright, now look carefully."

Bai Xiaosheng spat out a cloud of red Qi flow and attached it to Shi Ling's Heart Ring. Immediately after, a ball of red flame rose from Shi Ling's Heart Ring and instantly wrapped around Shi Ling's hand.

He immediately heard Bai Xiaosheng say, "Now get down from the bed and sit on the ground. The power of the Yang Fire is great, it can't be compared to Yin Fire. It can burn anything that comes into contact with it."

Shi Ling quickly sat on the ground and looked at the flame in his hand. He asked, "What should we do now?"

Bai Xiaosheng said, "By injecting mana into it, the yang fire will instantly boil and wrap around you. When that happens, do not stop it, just like using yin fire to temper the body. Just use yang fire to refine the body."

When Shi Ling heard this, his eyelids twitched. He had experienced that taste before when they were at the Yin Fire Body Tempering, but now that it was the even more powerful Yang Fire, he did not know if he could withstand it. However, he gritted his teeth and poured his mana into it.

After Shi Ling let out a stuffy groan, he closed his eyes and endured, letting the yang fire temper his body. Then, he saw that the clothes on Shi Ling's body were burning at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, the temperature of the entire room suddenly rose, and cracks appeared on some of the wooden furniture.

At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng spat out a mouthful of white air and turned into a protective barrier, isolating Shi Ling and the room. The protective barrier was transparent, and one could see Wu Tie inside from the outside.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at the naked Shi Ling and muttered in his heart, "Yin Yang Blood Spirit Fire, Yin Fire can incinerate the soul, mind, and even sound waves and all other intangible things. Yang Fire can burn away all metals, wood, water, fire, and earth, and other tangible items, and only by reaching a yin and yang equilibrium can one achieve the greatest power of this flame.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng sighed and muttered to himself, "Forget it, being hasty is not enough. Let's wait for his strength to come up before talking about it."

Time passed quickly. Soon, two hours had passed when Shi Ling's eyes suddenly opened. He then stood up and let out a hearty laugh towards the sky.

At this moment, Shi Ling's entire body was full of muscles and was full of explosive power. If there were any little girls here, they would definitely scream, because the ratio of Shi Ling's figure right now was too good. He was the type that was thin and thin while taking off his clothes.

At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng flew over and said, "It has reached the strength of three raging bulls?"

He looked at his hands excitedly and clenched them tightly. This feeling of being full of power made him want to find someone to have a good fight with. Then, he heard Bai Xiaosheng say: "Now do you know why I let you get beaten up by those bastards?"

Shi Ling nodded his head in agreement. Bai Xiaosheng said, "By whipping, you can toughen your body. When using yang fire in Body Tempering, your muscles can no longer explode, and at the same time, you can increase your strength."

When Shi Ling heard this, he smiled: "Looks like I'll have to go out a lot in the future?"

Bai Xiaosheng couldn't help but shake his head and said, "No need for that, just think of a way to get yourself a Dragon Breaking Whip."

When Shi Ling heard this, he just nodded. However, he heard Bai Xiaosheng say, "Let's go."

Shi Ling said, "Where are we going again?"

Bai Xiaosheng flew outside as he said: "Didn't that Zhang Family little ghost come to cause trouble for you last time? I don't think it's safe inside the Spirit Sword Sect anymore. "

Shi Ling said, "Do you want me to hide outside? However, according to the Spirit Sword Sect rules, this disciple cannot go out as he pleases. "

Bai Xiaosheng said: "Then you wouldn't have gone to the Garden Pavilion to accept a mission, that way you can reasonably leave the place. Moreover, after completing the mission and obtaining some gold coins, why not?"

At this moment, Shi Ling slapped his head and said, "Yeah, why didn't I think of that?"

Bai Xiaosheng said: "Didn't you always want to learn that rank 2 martial art, Shadow Killer, in the brick wall? Furthermore, when I teach you how to use the Floral Pupil, you don't need to worry about people disturbing you. "

Shi Ling was excited. He took out some clothes from his locker, put them on, and then rushed to Bai Xiaosheng. He grabbed him and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go now!"

With that, Shi Ling directly ran towards the Garden Pavilion.
