Chapter 391: Chapter 391: Cultivation
That’s how Gu Ning left, not giving Jiang Xiaobai any chance to react.

Jiang Xiaobai sighed helplessly, his face filled with reluctance as he walked into the cave.

He was comfortable when Gu Ning was around. He didn’t know why Gu Ning was interested in him, even take him as an apprentice. Unlike Gu Ning, he didn’t feel any hostility from him.

So, with Gu Ning around, Jiang Xiaobai felt he could take more risks.

But now that Gu Ning was gone, he had no choice but to continue cautiously, always mindful of his actions.

“It’s okay, I was alone before, there’s no reason to be afraid,” Jiang Xiaobai thought.

Jiang Xiaobai walked into the cave. The woman was already awake, looking up at him with gratitude.

“Thank you…”

She spoke softly.

After being taken and transformed into a Blood Warrior, she lost control over a large part of her spirit and could only watch helplessly as the ancient tribe did horrific things to her.

Not being able to make a sound, she had to bear all the pain.

But when Jiang Xiaobai saved her, she saw it clearly. Everything was unspoken, Jiang Xiaobai was her biggest benefactor.

“My name is Mo Yu, Mo as in ink, Yu as in jade.”

Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but twitch at the corners of his mouth when he heard her words.

We only met by chance, there’s no need to introduce yourself in such detail, right?

“Eat this, it’s good for your spirit.” Jiang Xiaobai tossed a potbellied porcelain bottle to Mo Yu, then sat down in the cave to think. He didn’t seem interested in Mo Yu.

Mo Yu had changed into a dress prepared by Gu Ning. Despite the wounds on her face, it was not hard to tell that she had once been a refined and cultured girl.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaobai didn’t pay much attention to her gratitude, Mo Yu felt a pang of hurt. She held the potbellied porcelain bottle tightly in her hand.

“Take it. Your spirit is severely damaged right now. Without this, you’ll be useless. Don’t tell me you don’t want to take revenge on the ancient tribe?” Jiang Xiaobai’s voice came from the side.

Mo Yu, who was still recovering, was startled and quickly swallowed a pill from the porcelain bottle.

“He said that… because he wants to use me.”

Mo Yu murmured to herself.

When she became a Blood Warrior, she retained a bit of her own will. She knew everything that happened, including what Jiang Xiaobai and Gu Ning had said in the hotel room.

Of course, both wanted to deal with the ancient tribe.

In Mo Yu’s heart, it was a lie to say that she didn’t want to deal with the ancient tribe. But she wasn’t stupid, she knew she was nothing but an ant in front of the ancient tribe.

The only thing she could do was to recover as soon as possible, increase her strength, and then she would have a handle to deal with the ancient tribe.

In fact, she wanted to pay back Jiang Xiaobai for saving her life.

Mo Yu silently remembered everything Jiang Xiaobai had done for her, and stopped making a sound. Instead, she was quickly absorbing the terrifying medicinal power from the pill.

“Even if I can’t deal with the ancient tribe now, it’s okay as long as I can help him.”

On the other side, Jiang Xiaobai was pondering his next move.

Of course, mischief must be made.

But the question is, how to do it?

Was he supposed to cause a little trouble for the ancient tribe, like those guys he saw in West Wind City?

As if! Hadn’t they seen what kind of stuff he, Jiang Xiaobai, had pulled off during his career?

He wouldn’t bother with the small potato stuff, which was a waste of time and effort.

If he were to act, the ancient tribe must be hurt, and hurt badly.

For example, the previous plan to produce billions of fake spirit stones, once the ancient tribe found out, would surely be a major hit.

However, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t think of any good method at the moment. Having trodden the beaten path once was enough; the ancient tribe would soon have reacted to it.

If he were to repeat it, he might expose himself.

Now, almost no one knew that he had entered the Northern State, let alone the ancient tribe.

If he wanted to play the long game, causing trouble while escaping unscathed, he had to hide his identity from the ancient tribe. Otherwise, knowing that you, Jiang Xiaobai, were behind everything, they’d be sure to come after you.

No matter what happened, it’s all your, Jiang Xiaobai’s, doing.

“Oh well, let’s see how things go. Now that I have enough spirit stones, I might as well break through.”

“In about one or two days, I should be able to mobilize the Rainbow Abyss; that will be the day I leave seclusion.”

After a long while, Jiang Xiaobai made up his mind to improve his strength first, and then adjust his plan based on the situation. If it got too troublesome, he might as well head back.

No sooner had he thought of this than Jiang Xiaobai looked up at Mo Yu. “I’m secluding myself for cultivation. It’s best if you don’t wander around during this time. Otherwise, I won’t be able to help you immediately if something happens.”

Mo Yu’s eyes widened.

Help me?

Unless she was mistaken, she was at the peak stage of Dividing the gods, just one step away from the Unity Period. Her strength was considered middle to upper level in the world, right?

You are helping me?

Although she found it strange, Mo Yu quickly nodded. At the same time, she decided to do her best to help guard Jiang Xiaobai.

Then, Mo Yu stopped absorbing the medicinal power of the pill and got up and went outside the cave, vigilantly watching every tree and bush.

Jiang Xiaobai saw her actions, shook his head, and sighed.

A gold light flashed, and a golden book appeared in his hand – the Monograph of the Veins.

“Now I have about two billion top-grade spirit stones, which should be enough for me to break through, right?”

Jiang Xiaobai said to himself, feeling helpless.

If all these spirit stones were put on others, they could progress from an ordinary person to the Unity Period with the best resources.

But for Jiang Xiaobai, could he break through from the late stage of Transcendence to the early stage of the Unity Period?

After all, when others were using these resources for cultivation, they had to spend a lot of time and effort. This solid foundation and the aid of time would result in a stable realm.

But Jiang Xiaobai was different. His path was a shortcut.

The Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill was downright cheating. It can speed up cultivation, but how could there be such good thing in the world?

Can you get fat all at once without any side effects?

This skill can increase strength in a short time, but to solidify the realm and break the limits, a heavy price must be paid!

That is, a huge amount of resources!
