C9 Natural Essence

How could Dean not recognize that this was the highly valued servant beside Martha?

"Miss Martha learned that you were hurt because of her, and felt very sorry for it. She intentionally gave you this bottle of medicine, so I hope you can recover soon."

Ling Xiao frowned as he saw the jealousy in the eyes of the surrounding people after being touched.

Even though he knew that this kind of treatment would only lead to him being mocked and insulted more, he still slapped Dean's face in front of everyone. It was easy for a warrior to make a wanderer disappear silently.

Was this Martha really ignorant, or did she have some other motive?

Ling Xiao temporarily stopped thinking about it and thanked him in a low voice after receiving the bottle.

He watched his servant leave. Perhaps it was due to Miss Martha's abnormal attention to this homeless child that he was worried, or perhaps it was simply just a show of authority. In the end, Dean threw Ling Xiao a contemptuous look and left with his henchmen.

Ling Xiao leaned against the wall and breathed heavily.

Dongzi, who was hiding far away, quickly supported him and muttered, "Dean really thinks highly of himself. As a First Level of Martial Soldier of a impoverished family, even if he chased away all his suitors, Miss Martha would not spare him a glance! "However, inner strength is really amazing. It would be great if I could train it as well …"

Ling Xiao looked at the arrogant back of Dean with a gloomy face.

This brainless fan called Dean was only a First Level of Martial Soldier, but he could easily suppress him with his inner strength.

Although he knew a lot of martial arts techniques, without the coordination of powerful inner strength, he was like a baby holding a peerless divine weapon, unable to even protect himself.

The things he wanted to do, whether it was to fulfill the original owner's wish to repay him or to return to that place to seek justice, were all based on a strong foundation of martial arts! Without force, it was all nonsense!

He had to become stronger!

He had to become stronger as soon as possible!

Ling Xiao returned to the shack after making up his mind.

Going out once in a while, despite having some bad thoughts, there were still some benefits.

The fight between the two women brought a flash of inspiration to Ling Xiao. He had seen this method of extracting the Qi of Heaven and Earth into essence before, hadn't he? Moreover, this method was something he could do now. As long as he was careful, he would be able to exchange it for the herbs needed to concoct the Bone Ablutionary Dan Bead.

The simplest and most direct method was to use a Inner Bead that had not completely lost all of its vitality to absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth, and then take out the extremely compressed essence within the Inner Bead.

But how could an ordinary person find a Inner Bead? Inner Bead would usually dissipate after their master died, and quickly lose their light. Only someone like Gayaro, who had a special way to keep the Inner Bead alive, could consider doing so.

Don't Ling Xiao have this kind of Inner Bead on his hands?

Thinking about it, he took out the Level Two Crazy Lion and instructed Gayaro to look after the surrounding situation. He sat down cross-legged and started trying to absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth into the Inner Bead.

This was the only Inner Bead left in Ling Xiao's hand, so he was very careful while using it.

It had already been a few days since the death of the Inner Bead's master and its power had gradually weakened. It was also no longer as berserk as before. After encountering a few unfavorable situations, Ling Xiao successfully lured the Qi of Heaven and Earth into the Inner Bead. Soon after, more and more Qi of Heaven and Earth were gathered.

One hour, four hours … When the sky finally turned completely dark. Ling Xiao finally gathered enough Qi of Heaven and Earth and a small milky white liquid slowly dripped from the Inner Bead. Ling Xiao immediately took out the medicine bottle that Martha had sent him. He poured out the medicine and carefully took the bottle to receive the liquid.

Even before Ling Xiao brought the bottle closer, he could feel the pure Qi of Heaven and Earth coming from inside.

He succeeded!

Everything was difficult at the beginning. With the first result, Ling Xiao's path of extracting the world's essence became smoother. In the next few days, he crazily condensed his essence and finally accumulated a full bottle. Its capacity was five times more than the bottle the two girls fought over that day.

After Gayaro's reminder, this bottle of essence couldn't be sold by Ling Xiao himself, he needed to find an agent. Thus, he hid his body and disguised himself, and went to find the travelling merchant who bought his things. Before leaving, the travelling merchant had told Ling Xiao that he currently lived in the trading market in the east.

Allens was a travelling merchant who walked on Intermediate Martial Empire. At the age of thirty-five, he had no wife, no children, and was not even interested in martial arts. He only liked to do business. He liked the sense of accomplishment when the goods were sold. But his luck never seemed to be very good.

In the course of his previous dealings with the merchants, he had encountered a gang of bandits who had lost the largest order he had ever made.

There was nothing he could do about it, as he only had some food and loose coins left on him. He had no choice but to change his route and turn to the Kata City that was closest to him.

On his first day in town, he bought a pile of goods with seventy knives from a small, thin child. After that, he sold it for five hundred knives. But this was far from enough.

This batch of stolen goods was related to the life and death of his benefactor's family. He had to gather another batch of goods in less than half a month's time before he could bring them back.

However, the money he had on him right now was not even enough for him to live his life on Kata City.

Allens felt ten years older every day when he woke up to the morning sun.

Today, Allens returned home exhausted, but he suddenly found a mysterious person wearing a mask sitting at the table.

"Who are you?" He immediately assumed a defensive posture.

The mysterious man glanced at him through his silver-gray mask. He did not answer, but said directly, "I want to make a deal with you."

Facing this unknown person, even though Allens had some doubts, he recalled the present situation and realized that as long as there was a strand of straw, even if it was floating on the surface of the water, he would still try his best to catch it.

He walked over to the table and sat down. "Why did you come to me?"

The mysterious man completely ignored the probing intention in his words, directly throwing a small bottle at him.

Allens stretched his hand out and took it, and the mysterious person's hoarse voice sounded, "This is a bottle of heaven and earth essence".
