The Invincible Supreme Medical God

Chapter 806 - 459: The Most Worrisome Thing

...

As she walked forward, Wang Julong was still very worried. With each step, she feared that the bodies she saw near the tomb belonged to Yan Xiaobao or one of her friends. This was what she feared the most, but as time passed, there was no dead Yan Xiaobao or her friends. She gradually calmed down and perfectly completed her work. With a sigh, she began to imagine what Yan Xiaobao was doing. Thinking of him, her eyes became stern, and she found a place she could cultivate. She vowed that from now on, she would be by Yan Xiaobao’s side, helping him in dangerous moments. If she wasn’t strong enough, how could she stand by him? With this in mind, the young woman once again focused as her entire body filled with energy and the desire to improve for Yan Xiaobao. "Are you sure it’s like this?" Rong Xing asked Deng Wu for the fourth time this hour, though the man loved her, he started to have a headache. "Trust me," he sighed. "I can feel Yue’s energy from here; he must be like this. The reason we can’t find any treasure is obviously because he’s taken them all. Whenever we catch up to him, I believe he’ll share with us."

Hearing Rong Xing, she was quiet for a moment before speaking again. "You said you can sense Yan Xiaobao’s whereabouts. How can that be? It’s been days since he last came here, and it’s not like he’s a skunk that everyone can smell his scent. How can you be so sure?"

Looking at Rong Xing, he sighed deeply and covered his blue hair with his hand while looking at the person he loves most in this world. "Have you ever wondered why my appearance has changed so much?" he suddenly asked her, causing Rong Xing to be surprised. She suddenly realized that she was busy with work and genuinely concerned about the changes in Deng Wu’s appearance due to what happened with the King and the Deng family. Although she noticed the change, she never asked why it changed. When they finally escaped the holy underground city and returned to Rong Xing, she had to tell him the bad news about his family, and she returned everything else aside. After that, she never thought too much about it and assumed it was something he did on his own.

"Yan Xiaobao and I have something in common," he said seriously. "I can’t explain in detail, but it connects and binds us, which allows me to track Yan Xiaobao. As long as he passes through the area I’m in, I can still see his energy dim and follow them."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent. Indeed, Yan Xiaobao and Deng Wu looked different from others; their appearance made others think they were mixed-blood, but they never thought there would be some kind of connection between them.

"That troublemaker didn’t even ask if I wanted it; he just forced it on me," Deng Wu continued, recalling the room at the Dragon Company headquarters.

As he recalled the pain he experienced, a shiver ran through his body, but even so, he was very satisfied with the results. Sharing a body with Little Dragon was not a bad thing. With this holy beast by his side, even if they encountered the mightful Emperor who hoped to bully them, he could feel safe. Little Dragon might even be strong enough to deal with a star saint, because his foolishness cost him his body and the ability to elevate his cultivation level, he was once a nine-star saint. Although his level had significantly decreased over the years, especially after encountering Deng Wu, Little Dragon was still far beyond ordinary Emperors. Almost no Emperor was his match. It was precisely due to this understanding that Deng Wu dared to enter the tomb following Yan Xiaobao’s trail.

"It’s a shame we can’t change it," Deng Wu mused slowly as he walked forward, with his friends following behind him. No one asked more questions, and Rong Xing no longer had doubts about him.

"We are not here to acquire wealth but to assist Yan Xiaobao. When he entered the tomb, he was a King, though he possessed some strange powers to elevate his cultivation base very high, it’s not something he can always use. We need to be there to help him!" Deng Wu was resolute in his mission. He and his friends were fully committed to Yan Xiaobao, and even if they were used as living shields, it was worth it. If it meant extending Yan Xiaobao’s life, they were willing to sacrifice their own. They were friends, and although Yan Xiaobao had a certain goal in life, they all knew he would give up anything to help them.

As they slowly traversed the tunnels, the group was very focused. They had long left the Gate of Heaven, entering a long and winding tunnel system. They were not experts at traversing the tunnels; instead, they stayed in the middle position, allowing other groups to trigger traps and handle casualties.

They were not in a hurry because although they knew Yan Xiaobao was somewhere ahead of them, he was not easy to deal with. He couldn’t die as simply as those saints. Had he been so easily killed, he would have died many times over.

Their progress was not difficult. All they saw were people fallen from traps or killed in conflict. "We have no reason to rush to the front line," Deng Wu muttered as he looked at the three more bodies lying on the ground. He didn’t know why they died. Their ranks while alive were impossible to guess because their internal energy had dissipated after their lives left.
